BT mouse - Eee Pad Transformer Accessories

yOkey, so I bought an BT mouse today its an SpeedLink mouse. I connect it to my eeeePad and it connects normal but there is no pointer on the screen and nothing is happening. Ahat should I do so I can use the mouse normal? My dad has an Iconia A500 and a usb mouse works why isnt this working then?

I just tried to link the MS BT mouse 5000 and I have the same problem. The device is listed as "Linked but not connected".

Mine shows that its connected and even draws a little mouse there in the bt setting where the name of the mouse is but still no pointer

I just tried my microsoft 5000 and it works great.

my m$ bluetooth 5000 mouse works fine also

Maybe I don't have proper settings on the Transformer. Mine is not rooted. For those who got your mouse working properly, are your units rooted?

Can you post some pics and the SPEC of your mouse?

Its one of these http://www.speedlink.com/?p=2&cat=122&pid=23484&paus=1&PHPSESSID=dce28a6009c928796a967515f267bc6a

Since my MS 5000 works fine with my rooted Nook Color, I have to assume there is a bug of some sort in the Transformer with regard to BT devices. Also, my rooted Evo 3D works fine with the NC for Barnacle tethering, but no luck at all with the Transformer.
Sounds to me like a driver issue with the 3.1 release of Honeycomb. Let's hope that 3.2 cures the problem.

I'm on 3.2 now no bt mouse compability yet.

[Q] Has anyone tested the G-Tab with a Bluetooth Mouse?

Just wondering.
I'm wondering how and why you could or would use a mouse on a touchscreen device without a pointer...
I have a BT mouse I got from Woot! awhile back, and it doesn't work. It will see it, but expects a code to pair with it. I've tried the usual combos and none worked, but on Windows 7 or MacOS they pair with it without any codes.

Some of the versions do have a mouse pointer once you have the mouse connected. I think Zpad does. Have heard TnT does not.

I only have one BT mouse to test, and it's never worked on any mod I've used. So I don't have the metrics to know if TnT would work with any BT mouse.
Well I just tried to plug in a usb mouse in TnT-Lite 2.1.1 an no cursor appeared. I am personally fine with the touch interface but it is a shame it was not detected right away.
Usb or Bluetooth Mouse support and Bluetooth Tethering are the last things that I want to get out of the gTablet... then I will be as pleased with the device as I can possibly be.
Gamestring + gtab + wireless mouse and keyboard = portable bliss
Last night I tested usb keyboard (HP OEM), usb mouse (Logitech), bt mouse (Logitech) with TnT Lite 2.20.
The keyboard was recognized right away and from a few seconds of testing, seems like all the keys that should work work.
Nothing noticable happens when you plug in a usb mouse. I have feeling TnT just doesn't have the drivers to recognize any mouse.
BT mouse pairs when I use the passkey '0000' and the gTab reports back as paired but not connected. I confirmed with my Logitech user manuel that the passkey if needed is indeed '0000' and trying another code causes the mouse to not connect at all. I haven't found a way to get it connected. I have the same feeling its because there are no mouse drivers in the TnT framework.
If you're looking to get a mouse to work in TnT Lite, I think we will have to ask Mr. Roebeet for some more magic.
Can the mouse services be ripped out of the Zpad ROM and put in the TNTLite ROM?
Running CM 6.1b4 here and I plugged in a Microsoft BT Mouse w/ a USB adapter and the cursor popped up right away and actually worked. I was unable to find it when I scanned for devices w/ the gTab's bluetooth, so you'd be stuck w/ a tiny dongle, but at least it's wireless. Here's a quick vid I made on the droid of it working,

Got mine working like a champ! I have the Logitech Dinovo mini key board. I had to use the dongle that comes with it though . I would get the same paired but not connected msg without the dongle. Put in the dongle and boom, works flawlessly. All I need now is the HDMI kit so I can lay in the bed and use this thing as a mini HTPC when I travel. Thanks guys!

Verified Bluetooth Keyboards and Mice

Can people that have successfuly paired AND used bluetooth keyboards and mice with the Transformer please list the make and model of the hardware you are using?
I just tried a Microsoft bluetooth keyboard and mouse (older models) and the mouse wont pair, the keyboard pairs and connects but wont type anything even when its set to use it for input.
Please share as much detail as possible on the compatible makes and models.
I have a dell bt keyboard and mouse bundle and they pair and function properly.

I'm using the excellent Logitech V470 mouse. Works very well, including the scroll wheel both vertically and horizontally with tilt.
Logitech DiNovo Edge works perfectly, including the built in trackpad.
microsoft Bluetooth 5000 seems to work well and scroll, on sale at Bestbuy for $35

+1 on the Dell bluetooth mouse.
I had a problem in the beginning with the PIN code for the mouse, but once that was cleared, it worked.

I paired mine with the Logitech Mediaboard and both the touch pad and keyboard work great.

back button
What about the back button on the mouse? Is it working too? Thanks
so which one is the cheapeast combo that works? i think this is a better solution for me since i hate any trackpad on a dock or keyboard. the dell combo is not being sold anymore and logitech is just too expensive.

I didn't try the back button on mine. I will try when I'm at home. However, the right-click button acts as an android back button (same with the right click on the keyboard dock).
I have used the Logitech MX5500 keyboard and mouse combo, also used the microsoft 5000 bt mouse.
Made a little video here
i got the MS bt 5000 mouse... i can connect/pair it initially, but i have problems reconnecting... i have to unpair and restart the tab for it to connect again... can't be doing that every time, so i gave up and am now using an usb mouse :[

Connected to KB dock, but no power was going to the mouse, perhaps i need to turn on the asus with it connected?
A Belkin mouse I got from UK staples works fine.

Prime with generic mouse

I can't get my transformer prime to work with a generic ebay wireless mouse. It works fine in windows, shows up in device manager as HID-compliant mouse. But in the transformer prime I get no input. The same happens to a wired GE mouse. But logitech mice work fine, I tried a wired G5 and a wireless mini mouse my friend was using with his laptop before.
Also, with the USB Host Controller app it's detected as SINO WEALTH SINO WEALTH
Btw, this isn't the only time I'm having trouble with the usb. I have a 32gb flash drive that won't mount when plugged in, while my other flash drives work fine. But when I test a friend's drive too, sometimes it won't work. I somehow got the 32gb drive working once when playing around with some usb apps from the market, but after disconnecting I couldn't do it again.
Never had a problem connecting a mouse to my prime dock and using it, used lots of different mice however most of my mice are logitec (like the brand, good CS keeps me coming back)
Its my experience with knockoff ebay perifials that they use firmware that "just barely works" with windows and has very limited compatability. Every mouse i have bought from a store has worked, no problem... Perhaps when you buy your next mouse you can take your prime with you to check compatability
Aside from that not sure what to tell you. The prime has generic USB drivers, you can try finding a driver for your mouse for linux and porting it over but since its a ebay special i dont think thats going to work.
Only other thing i can think of is buy a new mouse and make sure it works before handing over the money
Good luck! Let us know if you find a fix!
I also tried a wired GE mouse. This one. Neither work, but they do get detected from the USB Host App. It's weird that even some flash drives do not work. I'll see what I can do.
I'm using wireless Logitech G700 and it's perfect!
works without issue, scroll wheel, extra buttons, just as on Windows.
The only issue I have with it is that on Windows I was able to remove the "acceleration" of the mouse pointer speed, but on Android there is no such option.

USB (wired) mouse.

Hi guys, I'm probably getting this tablet soon, so I'd really love to know if someone has managed to get a common wired USB mouse to work with it, and if so how it actually performs (responsiveness, lag etc). I have a Logitech G5 gaming mouse, and I think it would be pretty neat to be able to use it at its fullest with this device, for browsing and whatnot, and maybe also for gaming, like for playing FPS games like Modern Combat 3, together with the keyboard dock. I'm not sure about this becase it has pretty high dpi, but if it actually worked at say at least 1500 dpi it would be really awesome. Any experience with this kind of usage? Please let me know
Well, a wireless mouse with a USB dongle works fine with it, so I assume a wired mouse would work as well.
Hi, It works great, no problem with it.

Hi,
Could you tell me which wireless mouse with USB dongle works with this tablet? I have an old micro innovations wireless keyboard and mouse. This doesn't work when I plugin using the Asus USB dongle. It works fine with the PC.
Thanks
My Anywhere Mouse MX works fine with it, but what do you mean by "Asus USB dongle"? Your mouse will only work with its own dongle plugged into the USB socket on the tablet's dock.
Just plugged in my Logitech VX Nano mouse last night into my keyboard dock. Worked like a charm. LogMeIn even recognized the right-click as a right-click instead of Back or Menu.
i've got some lg crapper- works great.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I don't have the dock. I am plugging in my wireless mouse/keyboard dongle into the tablet directly using ASUS USB converter not the dock. If I plugin a wired mouse into the USB adapter it works. But not the wireless one. I was wondering if any wireless one work because the tablet would need the driver like in windows PC.
Hey guys can someone confirm if this will work in FPS games like modern combat?
- TF300T Dock + usb mouse
or
- wireless keyboard and mouse
If this is working how do you map keys?
Thanks!
I've got Logitech G500 and I want to say this: it rocks baby !!!
could anyone play mc3 or mc4 with dock and mouse !?

Wireless Mouse/Keyboard compatibiity

Hi,
Im thinking of getting a wireless mouse/keyboard combo. Specifically the Logitech MK520.
I was wondering if anyone had tried any of the Logitech or other makes of mouse/keyboard combos with their tablet and what the results were?
Thanks
Tryed a MK320 Keyboard/Mouse set, works.
Media buttons work, Mail, Home, Media player buttons work also.
Volume buttons work.
So i guess that the mk520 will work just fine.
Edit:
Tryed Wireless keyboard+integrated touchpad K400 works also!
Tryed wireless keyboard k230 works also!
Thank you for your reply. It is much appreciated.
I have ordered the mk520 and will let you know if it works too
My logitech mk520 wireless mouse and keyboard arrived today. I plugged in the wireless receiver into my prime and it works
Both the keyboard and mouse work perfectly, the keyboard is really nice to type on too.
So if anyone needs a wireless mouse and keyboard combo for their prime I'd recommend it. :thumbup:

I have a Logitech M510 mouse and use it with my Prime but could never get side scrolling to work. Is this an issue with your mouse too if it has it?
My mouse has just the standard up/down scrolling so haven't had this problem, sorry.
