Version 1.1 adds SIP/international layout support.
Turns your phone into a regular USB HID Keyboard you can use with your computer, PS3, Wii, XBOX360, etc...
edit - xbox360/ps3/wii functionality will be added in next release.
Tested on the HTC Touch Pro CDMA, should work with most WM 5/6 devices...
Hello,
wow, thats a great software!
Two things I noticed:
- It uses a qwerty-keyboard by default, not the one you have on your Touch Pro (German Layout - QWERTZ)
- Win Key does not work
Best Regards
no2chem does it once again
This looks amazing!
Can anyone confirm it working on an HTC Kaiser or with a Mac? I cannot get mine to function :/
I've just tried my luck with my Touch HD and a Vista 64-Bit PC and encountered a few problems:
1. The WIN key doesn't work
2. The Touch HD doesn't have a hardware keyboard and what I type with my softkeyboard doesn't appear in the active window on my PC

If I recall correctly, the HTC Kaiser USB stack is strange; It doesn't even support USB Mass Storage function.. Perhaps Kaiser USB Function stack needs an update...

Do the Function (F1, Fx..) keys work? I'll see if there's a way to hook into the software keyboard.

Ok, I'll take another look at the winkey and how to localize the layout... Question though, is your computer set to use german layout as well?
Yep, both - TouchPro and my Computer - are using german qwertz layout.
Thanks for looking into that!
Wow
Incredible work no2chem. I hope you can enjoy a beer or two 95M66551P0347163L
Anyone confirm it is working with the PS3. That's were I really need it!!
Thanks
The link doesn't seem to be working at the moment (FF3, IE8 & GC).
No2chem,
Your sight seems to be down??
His sight seems to be down atm
doesnt seem to be working on my diamond. Only the alt ctrl del seems to work.
Can this work through Bluetooth? That would be even better!

same here, the buttons that come with the program works but not the on screen keyboard.
Tested with diamond running might rom 4.7 on vista and XP. I assumed it wouldn't work on a PS3 as well.
I'll wait for an update, thanks no2chem!
Nice work. Now for the question. Any chance of a bluetooth version?
It worked with my laptop. However, I had to reset it because the laptop keyboard did not work after plugging in my phone and using nueUSBkeyboard.
I also checked my 360 and it did not work at all.
Anything I can do to stop my laptop from not working and have it also work with my 360? Thanks!
Great
Great idea but i cant install it on my SonyEricsson X1.
Help needed!
Love the idea for this, and it worked pretty nicely on my Touch Pro The only issue I had was that the space bar registers as Alt and some other key (forgot now) was coming up as F1.
I expected it to fail on Kaiser, but it actually worked on first try ! (build 21032)
I have some feedback after a few tests :
- WinKey button on screen does not work
- Alt-tab feature cycles on my XP
- Layout is QWERTY instead of AZERTY and i can't find the letter 'M'
- Slower than remote control.
- Spacebar / Enter activates the button with focus on screen as well as sending keypress to the computer. Could be quickly fixed with a dummy button on screen that grabs focus all the time.
Other than that, it's a great piece of software ! It will come in handy for those servers i have at work without keyboard

This is the best Universal Remote software. I installed this on my Titan, and was able to control two of my TVs, a Projector, and a CELING FAN, lol....it can do everything, this truly is "universal"
(see attached cab file)
i'll test this tonight to see if it works
installed
I just installed it. I don't see an option for what you mentioned about pointing your remote at it to capture the IR (code).
Though I did go downstairs at work and point the thing at the Panasonic TV and go through the 30 codes trying hopelessly to get it to work.
Do you need to turn on / enable IR, or is it just naturally enabled each time you hit a "Power" or "Channel Change" Button?
Otherwise pretty cool...though it'd be nice to switch the screen around with the IR receiver being on the bottom instead of the top.
This one actually works with the Titan's IR hardware? If so, I've been waiting so long for something like this! None of the other universal IR programs have worked. Trying now!
Let us know how it works - I am hoping it will replace my Directv remote!!
Well, I just tried it on a Sony TV with all 24 associated IR codes for Sony, and no dice. I had beam enabled, but I am not totally sure that IR even works on the ROM I'm using (PPCKitchen build based on 19588). Can anyone else confirm that this works, and if so what ROM are you using?

I just tried it, with little hope of it actually working, on DCD3.2.0 ROM and couldn't get my Sony TV to work with any of the 24 codes. I too thought it might be the ROM, so I reflashed with the latest official "leaked" ROM and couldn't get it to work with that one either.
This is the first time I've seen this program actually work on a PPC since I owned my ipaq 5450.
This software is supposedly only available when it is distrubuted preinstalled by the OEM, and the only WM devices I've ever seen with it were HP/Compaq models.
This was the one program I truly missed when I left HP PDA's behind.
I hope someone figures out how to get it to work. I'm mildly surprised the program even runs on our titans.

Just to be sure...you had beam enabled right? From his sig, it looks like Crobs is running DCD 3.2.0 as well. I was really hoping this would work. The Titan's placement of the IR port on the bottom (vs the side) would have made it an ideal platform for this kind of program.

What settings do you have in your phone in order for this to work? (Beam should be on?)
Also, what ROM are you using?

Ditto... Is there a setting that I'm forgetting about? The only thing that I could find on the stock ROM or on DCD 3.2.0 was in settings > Connections > Beam - with a checkbox for "Receive all incoming beams".

Ya, that's it. Doesn't seem to be working for anyone. Care to elaborate Crobs?
Weird guys...I was actually able to get this to work with my Hitachi tv and RCA television. One is a huge big screen and one is a small one with a DVD player built in. That's all I know to tell you since I am not a devloper or coder myself, so I dont knwo why mine is or is not working...I do not have any other special software installed other than TomTom 7.450
FYI - I am running DCD ROM 3.2.0 with Radio 3.42.30
have you tried with any other electronics and seen if they worked. I cant get it to work either and i dont think my beam is sending anything out.
Fix IR
Check this reg key and see if it is as below:
Changed the following in the Registry:
[Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Irsir1\Parms]
Disablepowermanagement=1
IntIR=1
Port=1
does the nevo software work for you serfboreds? I changed the disable....to 1, but it still doesnt turn on the tv or dvd.
i know that the beam is working since i was able to send a file through it to my Palm

No, haven't had the time to try. Just trying to help get beam going for you. Seems dunebuggydude got beam working but no software. May not be compatible with titan.
Guys, I haven't tried it yet, but for all those unsuccesful attempts: how close to TV were you? I believe Titan has pretty weak IR and you need to be like right next to TV for this to work.
I am not sure how many of you out there share the same desire to have a thin/small wireless keyboard to go along with your beloved GTablet. I have a netbook carrying bag that barely fits the dimensions of the Gtab and I wanted a keyboard that matches that width to fit in the bag. The apple wireless keyboard is exactly 11 inches wide and the Gtab is 10.5, close enough in my case.
I am running TNT Lite 4.4.0 and decided to buy and connect the bluetooth keyboard with little initial success. I am not an android developer, but don't give up easily and am happy to report that I finally got it to work. Here is how:
1) Download free app called Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect
2) Turn on bluetooth
3) Turn on Apple keyboard
4) Scan for bluetooth devices on GTab
5) Pair to Apple Keyboard after it is discovered
6) Enter a pin into your GTab, (ex. 0000) and then OK.
7) Quickly, while it is trying to connect, enter the same pin into the Apple Keyboard and press Return. They will now be "paired but not connected"
8) Open Bluetooth Keyboard Easyconnect and it will take care of the connecting part.
Hope this helps someone.
Absolutely. I futzed for 30 minutes before giving up yesterday, I could get it paired but not connected. Thanks for the info!
I was able to connect a Logitech DiNovo mini using this info. The touch pad worked too but was erratic.
Are you able to get the greater than/less than symbols (< >) to work? I have a bluetooth palm keyboard and can't seem to get these characters to come up. Instead it gives me a semi-colon and colon.
opnscraddict,
I hadn't tried that one yet, but you are right. < and > don't seem to be working. Everything else I tried works though. Hmmm, maybe one of the paid keyboard apps would provide a key re-mapping functionality. I think I can live with it the way it is though, and use the onscreen keyboard when necessary for those two characters.
Works for Bluetooth mouse
I've also used EasyConnect to get my bluetooth mouse working. I was in the same situation with my mouse as the keyboard - it would pair but not connect.
I'm working on replacing my school laptop with my GTab and I need those keys for my C++ class. I found a thread on how to customize the key mapping, I'll try it when I get home today. Link
Does your bluetooth keyboard reconnect automatically when you turn on bluetooth without any interaction? I couldn't get mine to connect again after the first time.

I think you are going to regret that decision.
Right, I'm not entirely sure on how feasible it is. However, the majority of my time on my school laptop is spent on Facebook, Onenote and Visual Studio. The battery life and weight advantages of the Gtab make it an attractive replacement.
I can confirm that by following the instructions that I linked to in my previous post I was able to remap the keys to enable the greater than and less than signs.
Huh?

How are you going to install Visual Studio on the gTab?
I am going to access my workstation at home through rdp. I've tested the scaling and latency and it is pretty seamless. I also considered trying to run Ubuntu through VNC locally on the tablet and just using a linux IDE. With this keyboard workign 100%, this seems in the realm of possibility now.
Ah... gotcha. I use LogMeIn Ignition to access my laptop from my gTab. I used to have to carry that laptop around on trips and now I just take my gTab.
finally gave up
I tried for a whole half a day to get my Apple wireless keyboard to work. I'm using Vegan.
I finally gave up when I just plugged my full sized Dell keyboard in, and it worked like a charm without any issues at all. I'm just going to go hunt for a mini USB keyboard and I will be more than satisfied with that.

Anyway to disable that annoying accent character popup when typing on a bluetooth keyboard?
I'm using a TP with CM7 3.5 with a Motorola BT KB. I'v googled this to death and haven't found any solutions.
I tried null keyboard. Don't work.
Can't find anything in settings.
Anyone know?
Thx
I have the same issue with the motor kbd. I believe the issue is in the kbd software not the tp.

I called Motorola and Logitech (I have both keyboards and have the same issue with both) about the popup boxes. Both companies told me that it is a function of the operating system and is not hard coded into the keyboards. They said we should look into a software solution as the keyboard does not have the accent popup feature. Maybe this is a thing for the devs.

I just noticed you get a accent box popup when long pressing the on screen keyboard.
There has to be some way to change this.
thabksssssss
I installed the Go Keyboard app and no longer get the accent box popup.
I just wish there was an app that would get rid of it. Or someone figure out how change the setting in Android.
I like using the BT KB with null keyboard. Which has no onscreen keyboard.
When using a BT KB with go keyboard, holding the shift does not capitalize letters. You have to tap the shift key once to capitalize. You can't hold it. I emailed the authors to try to get them to fix that.
I tried a few other addon keyboards and they all have that stupid popup.
My wife's android phone with a physicial keyboard phone gets the same accent popup.
The BlueInput soft doesn't have that problem.
I think you needed to pair the keyboard with their software and not with the buildit android one, but after that it doesn't show the annoying pop when long press on the keyboard keys.
I use it with one of those mini BT keyboards and works fine.

YES! This works properly! Thx a LOT!
BlueInput doesn't work reliably. Mouse would not work with it. Uninstalled.
8(
Only tried with the crappy keyboard, but good to know that it doesn't pick the mouse.
I'm guessing the batteries in my mouse were almost dead. Even without Blueinput installed, mouse would not stay connected. I'v only had this mouse since Saturday. It came with Everready Energizers. This Motorolla mouse has an indicator that is supposed to flash orange when the batts are low, it didn't. So I thought they were still good.
After reading some reviews on some BT mice, some said the batts died really fast. So I installed some fresh duracell's today and mouse is working fine. I'll keep the switch off when not using it this time.
So I reinstalled Blueinput and just connected the KB through it. Left the mouse connected through android. I'm pretty sure the mouse would work through Blueint now with the fresh batts.
Just got myself a new BT keyboard with an integrated mouse, as you said, when paring/connecting using the BlueInput driver the mouse doesn't work which kind of sucks 8)
I found some another driver does appear to work fine (at least it allows me to use both the keyboard and mouse at the same time without the annoying "accent" popup window.
BlueKeyboard JP
https://market.android.com/details?id=elbrain.bluekeyboard.ime&hl=en
Still need to test a play a little bit more (see which layout fits my keyboard) but I think is more usable with this driver than the original/build-in CM7 one.

Works well. I have seen this before. Not sure why I didn't try it. Maybe I thought it was Japanese only. IDK. Tried so many.
Are you getting this when clicking on an iput box?
The setting of "selected keyboard" is not found.
It still works everytime. Just weird.
Oh I figured out that error. I had to actually select the kb in Bluekeyboard JP settings. I didn't select it before. I could see it there. I though it was already selected. It wasn't.
Another thing I noticed. When you select your BT KB in "Connecting process" in Bluekeyboard JP settings, everytime you click on an input box, there is a message box saying "connecting.. don't touch the keyboard yet". The KB still worked while that message was displayed.
I got rid of that by unchecking "Connecting process" in settings.
So now it works with no message boxes.
Blueinput JP FC's on every boot...
I normally use Hacker's Keyboard and change to the BT one when I connect the extenal keyboard,
just done a quick reboot and no FCs.
Still I think is good enough for me, I read somewhere than since Android 3.1 the keyboard is handled a litlle diferente (no more bin files for each keyboard, just plain text) so maybe whenever ICS is out we can have a better option 8) (xmast wish hehe)
Bluekeyboard JP works perfectly on CM9! No more FC's. Reconnects nicely.
I mistakenly called it Blueinput JP a couple of posts above.
I just heard about this and it was free so decided to try it out...but I have no idea how to control my phone when it's on my pc screen. I can click the hard buttosn that it displays on the GUI but anything on the phone screen itself (displayed on the PC), it only has the big blue circle that does nothing when I click except pulse a bit telling me I clicked here.
Also, the description was a bit confusing but when they said use the phone as a second monitor..I can't extent my PC Windows as a dual screen, right? Just meaning I can use both devices simultaneously with a single KB/M set??
edit:
seems like it responds to Key Board but not the Mouse. Also with Keyboard, I can't siwtch back the Window to 1 and 5 out of 5, only between 2 3 4? If I keep pushing Left or Right it finally goes. Int he App Drawer Page...I have no idea how to scroll up and down to choose something else that's not in my PoV

Same
I'm having the same problem with my laptop and Sidesync on my Galaxy s 5. I've tried it on my tablet too and its also having this problem. Has anyone found a solution?
I tried getting the Samsung Note keyboard to run on this and was unable. Currently using gboard and got voice typing to work most of the time. But I am really interested in getting the Note 8 keyboard on this device with the Google voice dictation button in the bottom-left. I saw some post about getting a small version of it but if anyone has any ideas please let me know. I'm on the Chinese version by the way.
Not sure this helps much, but, my Mate Se works with my logitech wireless keyboard and mouse. I bought them for my laptop (use them all the time with it).
But most android devices can see them also. The 'unifying receiver' has to be done under windows (couldn't update it even under linux), but once programmed, works on the Se. I did need to change the Se usb connection type to 'midi', but then all works fine.
That's the thing with a tablet or phone. There may be rare occasions a keyboard and mouse might be needed (voice typing works great basically). It's difficult to justify spending a bunch for a keyboard for that device alone.
