Using USB mouse.. - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Have anyone tried to find a mouse that will work on the mini usb port ?
Cheers Kim

First we need to confirm if the Universal supports hosting functionality! And then find a mouse which works
San

Does it need to be a host ?, I thought you could get away with a less suport to drive a mouse..
I have tried a desktop extender app, wich used the universal screen as 2. monitor, would assume that is more complicated than drivibg a mouse.

I have a friend whom tried a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard which works well on PPC.

With that application, the Universal was a client, and the computer was Host..
With a Universal and a USB mouse, you have to clients and no host..
The Universal will be waiting for the mouse to give commands and vice versa..
No drivers in the world can emulate USB host functionality, when the CHIPSET don't support it.
(Actually, the chipset TYPE supports it, but there are some wires that are not connected in the Universal..)

Wireless Keyboard and/or mouse

Is there anyway to get a wireless keyboard/mouse working. I have a media center keyboard with trackball and nothing happens with just plugging in the USB.
Thats strange, I have plugged in many USB devices and have had no issues with them working, keyboard, mouse etc....are you on the newest firmware?
Yes, I am on the latest firmware but keep in mind I am talking about a wireless dongle for a wireless keyboard and not a usb keyboard. Are you using a wireless keyboard or mouse?
i have an old logitech wireless mouse - works goog, but klicking is a little bit hard to do - doubleklick and no good focus on the mouse.....maybe its my old mouse.....but in the german android-hilfe forums some users have the same issues...
A wireless dongle may either draw too much power or more likely require a funky driver. Does it require a special driver on a desktop system?
My suggestion would be to go with a Bluetooth keyboard, they seem to work well. I just got an Apple Bluetooth wireless keyboard lashed up to my A70 today.
Yeah, I imagine it's a driver issue alright. Probably needs a software package to get it running correctly.
I have a wireless keyboard with a built in trackpad that works perfectly. This one is similiar but not the same. I normally have it for my media pc, but it works so well with the archos that I am thinking of buying a new one just for it.
IMO, if you can find a wireless device that works with just plug 'n play on a linux box then there is a good chance that it will work with your Archos.
Good to know guys. I don't think a specific driver is required in windows. I will give it another go.
Thanks for the input guys. I had to insert the usb before booting up and it works. Sure makes typing much much faster. One question though, how do you scroll up and down in Dolphin or any other browser?

Note + BT Mouse & Keyboard

Hi, I have some problems connect my keyboard and mouse to my note.
I have Microsoft Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 mouse and keyboard
It works fine with my Chinese tablet, but when i connect it to my phone it comes up as keyboard connected and mouse connected but nothing works. No error or anything cursor does not come up.
I saw one thread that says it worked for someone but it does not come up for me.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction ? What am i doing wrong ?
Thanks
Noone tried this yet ?
I used my MS 500 BT Mouse and my HP TouchPad BT Keyboard. Worked beautifully. The mouse curser cam up and the keyboard worked great with no lag.
My keyboard and mouse is one dongle so maybe that is why it does not work. Has anyone tried this exact setup ?
My guess is that dongle connected mouse+keyboard combos are not fully supported because they usually need specific drivers. I have a feeling I read it somewhere around these forums. There might be some exceptions but on Android it's recommended to connect BT HID compliant devices only.
Does anybody have a apple bluetooth keyboard on hand to test it with ?? (a friend of mine use mine) tx

I use a very generic USB HUB (Sharknet) to connect a wired mouse and keyboard and it works just fine. But if you want to use wireless keyboard and mouse, it's a bit more complicated. I tried with a Logitech KB+M with the UNIFY usb adapter connected to the OGT cable but it doesn't work, I guess it's a driver problem...you should find a KB+M with native bluetooth support (one that doesn't need the adapter) and synchronize them with the tablet, that should work...

A bluetooth mouse and/or keyboard should do the trick. Just pair them like with an audio device. At least that's what I heard, didn't test it.

Keyboard

Hi,
I am happy with the Mojo, and are using it mostly for media.
To control, I am using a wireless keyboard with irda adapter connected to the usb v2 port.
Now want to use it for gaming at the same time off course.
The problem is when connecting the gamecontroller in usb v3 port.
Sometimes wifi stopped working, and the keyboard loses connection as well.
Have you tried keyboard (with mouse) and the gamecontroller at the same time?
What are your experience and what type of keyboard are you using?

I use this BT2 keyboard/mouse combo
Works well, Just have to hit esc to get out of virtual keyboard.
Both paired and connected at the same time.
Both time out but come back on with no problems.
I usually have MOJO set up in a desktop setting with a wired keyboard/mouse connected to a USB hub, which in turn, is connected to the MOJO. Also played around with a few wireless keyboard/mice. No issues with having keyboard/mouse/etc connected at same time as the CTRLR's USB dongle. The only problem is getting used to the virtual keyboard disappearing if a keyboard is connected.
To note, I use one of our Mad Catz RAT's that has on-the-device DPI adjustment, letting me adjust pointer speed on the fly.
Performed a backup using Titanium and then connected the irda keyboarb in the usb 2.0 usb port.
Worked without any problems this time

I keep a logitech wireless mouse handy. When I need it I just plug in the dongle to the 2.0 port on back. No issues using the mouse or CTRLR simultaneously.
I'm trying to figure out the best way to have the virtual keyboard hide while I use my bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo. I am using a logitech Mediaboard Pro which was built for the ps3. It doesn't connect with a dongle , it is true blutooth. I'm not sure if that makes any difference with how it effects hiding the virtual keyboard or not. I have been connecting to it with in the settings, blutooth menu. I have tried a couple of the Null keyboard apps in Google play with no luck. Anybody have any suggestions.
Can someone please recommend a decent bluetooth keyboard with touchpad. No usb dongle.
Thanks
The next firmware update should help with that issue - we're hoping to release it very, very soon.

Bluetooth combo keyboards/mouse generally don't come with USB adaptors.
So, I think any BT2 (classic) keyboard will work, mine works fine (a bit too small) but as Nate says have to escape out of the virtual keyboard.
USB keyboard doesn't do this.

I've posted the link to the latest firmware update here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647180
Install that and it should sort the onscreen keyboard issue as Bluetooth keyboards will now correctly detect as physical keyboards.

Thanks, did the update and I'm really glad by the better support to blutooth keyboard. Now the mojo will remember my blutooth after rebooting. Also I noticed the word suggestion at the bottom of the screen. Is there a quick method of inserting the suggested word other than using the mouse to pick it. Thanks
