Plugging a USB bluetooth dongle to an Android that has already Bluetooth - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I have an Android TV Box with an old Bluetooth version that does not allow me to pair two gamepads at the same time. The question is if I could update the Bluetooth of the TV Box with a USB Bluetooth dongle version 4.0 and thus make it compatible with the gamepads without having to change the entire TV Box.
Does anyone has experience with USB Bluetooth dongle and an Android device that already has Bluetooth capabilities? It will be recognized and work?
Thank you in advance.

Nobody?

[Q] Possible to connect S2 to dinovo mini bluetooth dongle?

Hello!
I've tried to connect my Galaxy S2 (Checkrom V4) to my pc via the Logitech dinovo mini usb dongle. For some reason my phone doesn't even find the dongle. So I want to know, if there is any way to do so.
Thanks for your help!
Instead, you need to get your PC to find the phone. In order to use the logitech dinovo bluetooth dongle to act as a bluetooth one, you'll need to remove your dongle, and then press and hold the connect button while plugging in the dongle into the USB.
This is because the Logitech dinovo dongle have two bluetooth modes:
1. Embedded mode
2. Bluetooth Mode
The embedded mode is the mode your Logitech DiNovo connects to without doing all that pairing stuff. This only connects your Logitech keyboard. So in order to connect to other devices, connect in Bluetooth mode with the instructions I have listed above.
Hope that helps.
Thank you very much for this information. You just saved me hours of research.
I have a Himedia Q5 smart tv box and since this device has no built in bluetooth
but i had an old diNovo mini and thanks to android 4.03 and your information,
i'm now happy typing using this dongle and the di novo mini keyboard (incl. mouse feature).

[Q] has anyone tried using a USB Bluetooth adaptor?

Considering the issue with Bluetooth audio headsets while streaming audio/video, has anyone tried hooking up a bluetooth USB dongle to their prime? I'm wondering if android would natively support that type of device hook up. I don't own the dock or USB attachment to test it out.
I was just wondering the same thing.
I have tried it.
I tried 2 Bluetooth dongles and none of them worked. The dongle light comes on, blinks but there is no way on the prime to use it.
You would need to code an android compatible driver.
Is this difficult? Seems like a nice idea for people who are having trouble for example watching Netflix with bluetooth headphones.
