Does anyone have or tried a brydge keyboard? They have various sizes and I don't see why 1 wouldn't work w the Tab S4 since they're all bluetooth but really would want one of them w a trackpad.

Based on the spec comparison of the Galaxy Tab S4 vs Ipad Air (2019) https://www.phonearena.com/phones/size/Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-S4,Apple-iPad-Air-2019/phones/10814,11156
It looks like the brydge keyboard for that ipad will fit. Not sure about the hinges being too tight or interfering with the screen though. If brydge had a touchpad I would consider it but if it's just a keyboard then meh.
Still, if anyone does give it a try, please let us know, thanks.
They do have a touchpad version, that's why I was wondering! Hopefully someone will share if it's worked.

I have the new Brydge 10.5 for Surface Go2. It pairs with bluetooth but the trackpads does not work. Keyboard works but the most important trackpads does not.

Hi,
I recently got my Galaxy Tab. Having around an Apple wireless keyboard and a Magic Mouse, I decided to give them a try with the tab (I know it is a little ironic to use those two together given the legal war that is going on between the two companies ).
The keyboard worked perfectly (it paired and connected at first try).
The mouse also paired and connected at first try, but it just doesn't work. I am not getting a cursor, as it happens on my gf's GT P1000.
Anyone ever tried or made it work with an apple mouse or any other bluetooth mouse? Any ideas or workarounds? Thanks!
Regards,
Marius
Yes,...it works fine
I have a the Kensington Slimblade BT mouse and it works fine. This maybe a bit old technology, since I have it more than a year (using it also on my laptop)
I also have the small Apple BT keyboard - and it also works....sort-of. Sometimes te keys seems to get stuck and since it is created for the Apple envirnment, there are some 'dead keys' and some options missing.
I use my Dell compact BT mouse with no issues. I also use a Logitech diNovo keyboard. The two BT devices almost turn my GTab into a mini desktop.
The Apple Magic Mouse won't work...this is a known issue. It will pair but that's it.
The Apple Bluetooth Keyboard works fine with the 10.1. I've had no problems and like using it.
I've had no problems with Mircosoft's 5000 Bluetooth mouse pairing and operating the Tab. It makes for a great remote control!
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I have a similar issue. I bought a Speedlink Snappy SL-6158 Bluetooth mouse for approx 10 dollar and was thrilled to see it work on my Galaxy S3, so I thought it would work on my Tab2 as well. Wrong thinking. It paires just fine, but it will not show a cursor and does not react on the buttons.
Is there any solution for this problem, or did I just wasted 10 bucks?
I use a cheap bt mouse I got eBay and works fine here too...

Could you tell me what type of mouse this is?
And can anybody tell me if this can be solved by rooting and using a custom rom?
Is the S pen the same for the SGH-i717 as the GT-N7000 one? Seems to be more plentiful.

I believe they are the same except the button color is different.
Wacom is wacom I believe... the Note stylus works fine on my Lenovo X61 tablet, and vice-versa. See no reason why there would be a difference between different versions of the Note.
I've heard that you can use any wacom pen with the Note, but any additional buttons that might be included on the pen will not work. I haven't personally tried, so I can't confirm for sure.

This is the truth. Extra buttons on other Wacom stylii won't work, but the actual stylus does
Although I appreciate the additional information, its offtopic.
As far as working I would assume the same. I guess I should have been more clear in my question.
Could I buy any other Note's S Pen (in particular, since they seem to be more abundant on ebay, the GT-N7000's) to replace a lost or missing one, for an SGH-I717. Would it fit perfectly into the intended slot?

Anyone have a oem Samsung one? Can't find any. Do older models work? Can u put it into dock mode without a dock? How does it know it's docked?

Got the Tab 2 today and tested my dock stand from my Tab 1. I use it mainly for watching movies over HDMI.
Unfortunately it doesn't work. It charges but the HDMI function doesn't work. Pretty pissed of actually. It's an Samsung dock stand ans cost me $60. Can't believe Samsung changed something so it doesn't work.
Anyone know what Samsung changed?

tab plus dock works and about $15.00
I read a review on Amazon about modifying the tab plus dock for the tab2. I can confirm it works with the mod. Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/cr/B006DJ4NL4/ref=aw_d_crstars_electronics?qid=1344288906&sr=8-4

Does it have audio out and does this work properly? If so I might buy to make an audio out cable.
There's a new tab 2 dock just out http://www.expansys.com/samsung-doc...-7-0-and-10-0-charging-audio-line-out-234064/
that looks pretty good.
Using my old Tab dock too with my Tab 2! a bit tight but works well as just a charging dock! Did not know the HDMI did not work!

Audio out works. Had to load the Dock app, and/or change a dock setting. I had the new tab2 dock and returned it. I like to turn the tab landscape and watch the game, but the tab2 dock won't allow it.

I would say the tab 2 does not have hardware to do HDMI / MHL out. Manufactures are not in the habit of including hardware for no good reason and hiding it. To save cost, I'd bet Sammy eliminated the TV out chip.
As i read from other users, hdmi was found and stated in the first version of the manual and then removed in the next versions!!!
Lets hope it will be supported in the jb release (soon) stay tuned
You could ask the official Samsung dealer in your country
You could send dm to the user in this thread, he says the hdmi work with certain dock in our tab

Hey all, I know i'm kinda late to the party, but I found a nice little Bluetooth keyboard that has an integrated stand. It works really well for the Tab Pro 10.1 even though it's technically made for the iPad.
Here's a link to my review (with pics). http://www.amazon.com/review/R2XJOV3VU2D9EX/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B00HAZOSWY
Looks like a great option. I wish I had found this thread months ago. I've had my Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 for almost a full year now, and while I love the performance, functionality and portability of it, I agree that it has been missing a keyboard.
It seems Samsung has abandoned the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1. After months of searching I could not find a single custom keyboard option. Instead I could only find general/basic Android keyboards.
I've tried several Belkin options and some Logitech. Which do okay. Now I'm waiting on a keyboard from WayTools called the Textblade. It is a stand alone option, that is super thin and portable. Since I travel for work and run between classrooms at my University Portable is very important to me. I cannot fit my tablet, books, notebooks, keyboard, laptop, mouse, and etc. So I'm cutting down removing the 5 lbs laptop and 1 lb Belkin keyboard for the aforementioned option.
Thanks for making this post.
You're welcome.
Is that Textblade keyboard made specifically for the Tab Pro or is is a generic Android device?
Unfortunately it is generic but portability is the main selling point. See https://waytools.com/hands-on
Funny, I just pre-ordered a TextBlade as well. Looking forward to it!
Any cases with Incorporated keyboards with touch pads specifically for the S4, or that will fit the S4?
I haven't seen any specifically for the S4, but I saw some universal ones.
If you had the tab S2 Samsung keyboard it works, of course you can't use the case though.
I have an IVSO keyboard case but using my Tab S2 keyboard.
I order this one from amazon, and waiting for it, but it seems to be a good one!

did you test surface keyboard? did it work? good sensitivtiy of the touchpad?
Did you manage to find any decent ones? I have a Tab S4 arriving today and would really like to get a keyboard case for it, but I don't want one without a touchpad.
Also, all the third party keyboards I have seen are bluetooth - are there none available that connect through pins like the official keyboard case??
I'm looking for a surface-like keyboard + trackpad too!!

you could used a bluetooth mouse , im using a hp z5000 , is cheap and has a good build quality , and also a has the benefit of a larger keyboard layout with a logitech k380..the whole thing is confy and still way compact than a laptop
