We know that the asus transformer has mouse support with the trackpad. I would prefer to have a full mouse when I I set this up to do typing and office type work.
Can any of you who already have the tablet see if it works with a bluetooth mouse?
I will test this when I get home this evening. I meant to test it last night and in the excitement of getting the transformer, I forgot.

Wow didn't even know this was supported so well. Pairing up brings up a mouse pointer until the connection is lost.
LMB obviously simulates touch.
RMB is the back hotkey
MB3 is the menu hotkey (top right icon)
Scroll up-down traverses open menus. LMB to select. Will scroll in the browser and system wide such as in polaris office.
Full movement as expected from desktop OSs.

That is great news. I want to be able to plug my tablet into my hdmi next to my tv to watch videos and sit back on my couch and navigate. That is awesome, thanks for testing it out!
What about zooming in and out? How do you do that if you can't do multi-touch pinch gesture? Perhaps some sort of combination of button press + scroll wheel?

You still get double click to zoom. Other that that you can't be more precise from just the mouse and I don't have a dock or bt keyboard to try.
Only time I see myself using a mouse is when plugged into hdmi and I feel double tap to zoom and reflow is sufficient.
I wish RMB emulated a long press. I feel that is more natural for a right click. Hopefully this can be altered once HC goes open source.
Pairs with Apple bluetooth mouse and links to input device, but nothing happens. Certainly don't get the pointer that could be seen on the screenshot in the earlier thread.

Hi mate,
I'm having trouble pairing my BF mouse with the transformer. I can see it, but when I try to pair them, the transformer asks for pin and basically that's it... nothing after that.
How did you pair yours?

Just entered the default pin 0000. Check the mouse label if it has a specific pin.
FYI mine is a logitech travel mouse

Yeay, 0000.
It wasn't on the mouse, but I found it in the online manual.

Not one of my Apple peripherals connect and work (magic mouse, magic trackpad or keyboard). My Logitech M555b mouse works correctly though.
Makes me wonder if Honeycomb is deliberately blocking Apple devices from working.

That is highly unlikely. When you go into system/usr/keylayout on the XOOM they even have a dedicated layout file for the Apple wireless keyboard. They would be stupid to fuel the flaming between iSheep and Androids! However, I wouldn't be surprised if the Apple mouse requires special drivers, especially if it is the magic mouse which is not your conventional HID. Or maybe Asus has a beef with Apple, but not HC.

I haven't done any digging into the system files yet on the Transformer, so I can't comment on that.
I find it strange though that they all pair, connect but then fail to actually interface correctly. The mouse cursor does not appear on screen, even though the settings panel recognises them as a mouse and trackpad, and the keyboard just doesn't function - the only time it works is when you have to type in the pairing PIN.
Strange.. Might well be an Asus -> Apple issue/incompatibility or something with the bluetooth chip. Perhaps we'll see a future software fix or hack.

The first connection, more than 5 minutes will be automatically disconnected. Need to connect again.
I use a Bluetooth 3.0 Mouse...
Is this the reason?
I tried plugging in the USB transmitter of the Microsoft BlueTrack Mini Explorer and it works, but response is slow.

I am having this issue also. My mouse works fine on my laptop. I think it has to do with the TF going to sleep. I only notice it just before or just after my TF goes to sleep.

Mee too, Works fine on laptop but not Tablet.
This is definately an issue with the TF screen ging to sleep. While I would like it to automatically reconnect. A temporary solution when using the mouse with the dock is to set the screen to stay on when charging.
EDIT: I just installed 3.1 last night and from my experieces today it looks like 3.1 automatically reconnects with the bluetooth mouse after a disconnect.
I know there are apps to you can download to turn your cell phone into a wireless mouse for your PC, in fact I have one and it works great.
Does anyone know of an app that will do the same thing but be able have a mouse pointer on your Prime using your cell phone as the mouse. I've searched the marked and googled it and get nothing.
If there is not an app like this maybe one of you guru developers here can make one. That would be awesome.
I think this should work with the client and server installed

Mobile mouse works great, if you're just looking to control the mouse functions. There's also LogMeIn, if you're looking for more functionality (remote desktop type stuff).
These work on a PC, but I'm not sure how well, or if these would work on the TFP.
I have a app that controls my computers mouse pointer from my phone. What I'm looking for is an app like that but to put a mouse pointer on my Prime and be able to control the pointer from my phone. So it would really be an app that creates a mouse pointer on the Prime and is controlled by the phone. This way I could sit back and control my Prime while connected via HDMI on my bigscreen and not have a long HDMI cable or have to get up to mess with the tablet.

That works just fine. I found it while looking to use my phone as a BT keyboard to use cheats in GTA III. Mouse also works.

So will this app put a mouse pointer on the Prime and control said cursor from the phone? I'm not really going to use my phone as a game controller what I really want is a cursor on my Prime to control it like it was in the dock (I don't have a dock) remotely.
That's two apps that need root to work so I may be closer to rooting if one of these will do what I want.
So I bought a cheap OTG cable off amazon to connect my ps3 controller to my phone. I followed all Dancing Pixel Studios' instructions and I can use my controller while its plugged in, but it won't pair through bluetooth. When I press start it connects to the controller, but after it connects I try to click pair controller and it says "No controller found - please connect it via USB cable. The cable I bought is kind of janky, it only works when I position the cable just right. I don't think the cable is the problem because I get it to connect and I keep the cable in the exact same position and click pair and still nothing. I even tried pairing it in the bluetooth menu but it just keeps pairing and pairing, and nothing happens. BTW, I am on the latest cm9 build from gray wolf with little to no issues. Any help would be awesome!!!

I've been using my PS3 controller with a Nexus 7 so it should work pretty much the same. To get it to pair through bluetooth, you must go to the dancing pixel website and download a little exe called something along the lines of bluetooth address changer or something like that. This will let you change the bluetooth address of the controller to the bluetooth address of your rezound. The controller will then pair with your phone through bluetooth. hope this helped!

If it's still not pairing I would make sure that the bluetooth address of the controller matches the one of your rezound because that happened to me the first time I tried to pair it with my nexus 7.

Yep, just double checked it and it is exactly the same... this is annoying. I appreciate your help thus far though.
update: I just connected my controller to my phone, opened sixaxis app and pressed Start and it found the controller right away, so I pressed Change IME and chose ps3 controller and I used the d-pad and square to choose pair controller and click pair. It still said no controller found. Bahahaha!!!!

If I remember right it's a Bluetooth stack/ Bluetooth driver issue on the
Rezound and other Sense phones. I believe there are some Non-Sense Roms that have the correct Stack/driver that will fix the issue but I can't remember which ones they are sorry. Also have you tried Wii remote? That works for me even on Sense Roms.

You are correct, the only way to pair a ps3 controller on an HTC device, is to be rooted, and have an aosp, or an aokp Rom on ur phone. That's it. Plus.... You need to have an OEM ps3 controller. Any cheapo controller won't work

use pc for mouse Sorry.... was kidding.
As per L9 spec... we have BlueTooth Version 4.0 (GAP, A2DP, AVRCP, FTP, HFP, HSP, OPP, SPP, PBAP,HID). You can use almost any device which supports these standards. Any BT Device which can be recognized as Human Interface Device (HID) can be used, including mouse. It will work exactly like your old BT keyboard with old phone. No change.

The fact is nobody asked this for mouse before, hence you are first person (in my life) who is interested in connecting mouse to touchscreen smartphone. You can go ahead and make a history.... :laugh:

Sweet! I'm going to use the K700, which came with the Logitech Revue (Google TV). We kept using and were really happy with the Revue, to honest. But it died about a week for the NP went on sale. Timing was perfect, but we balked when it first went on sale, and then it was taken off the market for a few days. I bought a Unifying adapter, and configured the K700 on my PC, and it works great. I also tested it on my Oneplus One over OTG, and it's fantastic. Love that the home and back keys work, and the touchpad.
