Mouse for a Pocket PC? I don't get it.

THnx

Same here. Hacking the Magician to act as a Bluetooth HID optical mouse by using the camera as a motion detection sensor, now THAT would be a hack...

@psych0t1c: This would be near to impossible, because the cheap CCD in the Magician needs much light to recognize anything. Now if you put onto your desk it could not constitute any difference on different places.

That's another reason I'd consider it a really impressive hack.

One Word : Use_The_Camera's_Flashlight
Seriously though - I have this cheap mouse that works on a Wm2003Se Pocketpc like a charm but not on my WM5 JJ . Which version of the STowaway Mouse is his 4.2 ? 4.3? - Did someone get it to work on WM5?
I got to play with a Stowaway Mouse for a week :lol: - You should have seen the students faces when I pull out my "mini Laptop" in the coffee shop and they still sit with Old NoteBook technology :twisted:
Now without the mouse it is not as impressive
Cant we hack the latest WM5 compatible driver as the previous one's - Who knows how to reverse engineer DLL's??

Well, I've tried to use it with a Qtek9000 and WM5.0, without success.
Stowaway mouse driver version 4.4, but finishes always with the two messages bellow, poping-up:
- Error
Keyoard driver not functioning!
- Keyboard Driver Error!
The Keyboa driver ("StowawayXT.dll")is not responding.
Please reinstall.
I might be some problem with the .dll.
Any directions or ideas?

I have the same problem as Conchas. not working :-(

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32068
Works for me. I have not Magician, but it was teststed with all versions of BlueAngel's WM5 ['orignal', Himalaya port and Wizard port].

Not all mice work with this product. One I know for sure that does is as follows:
AnyCom BTM-100
- Bluetooth 1.1
- Work Time = Up to 20 Hours
- Stand by Time = Up to 2000 Hours
- Resolution 800 DPI Optical
- Profile is HID with boot support
- Powered by 2x AAA Ni-Mh batteries and rechargeable with USB adapter (included)
- Radio Class 2
- Chipset CSR BC01
- Dimensions (H x W x T), 28.5 x 48 x 100.5 mm...or in inches 1.12 x 1.88 x 3.397.
- Weight 48 grams excluding batteries
Very sleek, small/portable and sexy looking. Matches my black x7500 and works perfectly with my athena. I tried at least 6 different mice with this software and only two worked.

really...but the thing izz that the mouse connected and even scrolling and clicking some things izz possible...it's just the MOUSE POINTER THAT WON'T SHOW UP!!!

That's a symptom of the compatibility issues. I ran into the same thing. The point of BlueMouse is to provide the cursor. You can have it click and stuff without BlueMouse as I did with some Logitech mice.
It was frustrating for me during testing also. What mouse do you have?

Have you updated your device to WM6? If you did then uninstall BlueMouse as there is native mouse support in WM6 and it works great. I just tried it and won't be using BlueMouse again unless they provide enhancements that the native functionality doesn't offer.

- Remove SD card. Not necessary as mine worked with SD card inserted but it'll help avoid potential issues.
- Synch your device, to backup contacts, etc.
- Download the file from the link I posted. This is the ROM update for the x7500 from HTC. Ignore the other files on the other post.
- Run the file you downloaded from the link off of your PC. It'll run an update on your phone through ActiveSync. It'll wipe out all contents and install WM6.
This will run and upgrade your device. Don't forget it's going to wipe it out and set it up with WM6 with factory defaults. Enough to get you going?

Try deleting mouse from device then pair again. If it doesn't work then it may be that the mouse is just not compatible with WM6. When you pair the device, can you click around and get actions to happen or nothing happens?

Wireless keyboard?

HI!
Does anyone know if there is a wireless keyboard that will support wm6.1? I bought an igo and it was fine on my jasjam (running wm5) but when I upgraded to wm6 it stopped working and igo will not release new drivers for it. I now have a kaiser but still want a wireless keyboard
If anyone could help that would be great!
Thanks

My igo stowaway worked fine on my wm6 kaiser... and works fine on my wm6.1 omnia

can you please tell me what driver you used? My igo stoaway keyboard only has drivers for wm5 and PPC2003

The stowaway 5 driver works fine on my kaiser... the omnia worked out of the box.

Here's the driver i use for my stowaway... works flawlessly.

thats the cab i tried to use too
What stowaway keyboards do you guys have? is it this one?

I'm curious, what do you guys use wireless keyboards for? I don't see the benefit since the built in keyboard is so great.

The built in keyboard is so....er... whats the world that isn't great... barely acceptable?
The stowaway on the other hand has proper keys, like the ones on a real pc keyboard. Along with a nice set of keyboard short cuts and a control key!
The built in one is fine for a quick text message. But if you're planning on doing any writing for longer that 10 minutes the stowaway is an amazingly good investment.
So If i'm on the train, I open my stowaway, put the pda on the built in stand, and type. just as quick as a laptop and nowhere near the bulk.
The one in the thumbnail looks very similar to mine.

all you need is
an external keyboard, larger external screen, better antenna, maybe some proper dasd...
Get a netPC!

I used it in landscape but here's someone with a Kaiser who used it in portrait...
I used to use the stowaway iGo keyboard with my Tilt, it's great for all the reasons psionandy said, but...
mrg2003 has a point, and so now the iGo is used with this:
BUT for the same reasons psionandy said... it also has a built-in qwerty, but to borrow on mrg2003's sarcasm, it IS a full Windows XP Pro computer, and setting it up as a portable workstation with an iGo and a mouse is a breeze.
Actually right now it's my desktop computer,too
Would I use my iGo keyboard with my Tilt again? Not really, because the built-in qwerty is good enough for on-the-go, and if I have plans to do more than momentary computing outside the home, I take the UX with the iGo and just use that. BUT... not everyone has a UX like I do, SO THAT SAID, if you want to do extended computing on your Tilt, yeah, the iGo keyboard is the WAY TO GO.

Tilt and Stowaway
Just got the IGo Stowaway for my AT&T Tilt and it seems to work out of the box with WM6.1 - except for the function commands (written in blue). Does anyone know if the driver is needed for the function commands to work properly, or are those "blue" commands on the Stowaway for some other PDA?
Thanks,
ClbGld

I love my Celio Redfly.
keyboard/monitor expander/powers my Tilt.
Works out of the box.
Smaller keyboard than the stowaway... much improved screen.

I use Apple Bluetooth keyboard and Apple Might Mouse xD

loving my Celio Redfly
I'm not sure why your iGo Stowaway isn't working. I had trouble getting it to work at first when I tried downloading the .cab directly from my Tilt. When I installed it off my PC it worked just fine. Maybe you have a corrupted .cab. I've been using my Celio Redfly almost exclusively lately and have to say it was the best $100 I've ever spent. It powers up instantly, has amazing battery life, and is very portable.

Oops, sorry that was a typo. Don't like using the thumbboard for long text. It was $200. However, the new models that are coming out come in 2 flavors. I believe the smaller, more portable model will be under $200. Even at $200, it was worth it and not for oh aah factor either.

yeah I'm not sure why mine won't work. I've downloaded the driver again but it still won't work (although it will on my jasjam which runs wm5)
Is celio redfly a phone or a wireless keyboard?

The Celio Redfly is a larger keyboard and 800x600 WVGA display extension device for your WM phone. You connect your phone to it via USB or Bluetooth and it replaces your phone's display and key entry functions. Plus, connecting by USB allows it to charge your phone while connected. It has no OS, memory or processor of it's own, using strictly what your phone can bring to the party. It's your WM phone, but with keys you can actually type on, and a display you can actually see; plus the ability to attach USB devices like a mouse. It resembles a small very lightweight laptop, and has about an 7-8 hr battery life. Just Google it for more info, my friend.

my keyboard works just fine on 6.1. i use the native built in WM driver. you dont get to use a lot of the functions on the keyboard (apps, ok, send, inbox etc) but it works just fine. and honestly, its worked on every single 6.1 rom i've used. something might be up w/ your keyboard

I'm using my old "Palm Bluetooth Keyobard model#3245W" no drivers just pair and its a "HID" device and thats it. Just type away....
Just no hotkeys or special stuff like that. I like it better because its a "Full Size qwerty keyboard" with numbers across the top.

Bluetooth mouse on touch pro

has anyone tried using a bluetooth mouse on the touch pro? i found this driver on the net which will allow you to use a bluetooth mouse on the PPC.
http://teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinput
the driver is available for download as a trial. i wanted to test it out but i do not have a bt mouse. anyone with one please try it and give feedbacks!! i think this is one useful application specially for browsing the net.

I've used this driver on my Mogul and it worked great for everything (including surfing the net). I have not used on the TP yet.

Standard HID protocol for BT mouse.

Have you tried a Bluetooth Mouse? You should!

Just for curiosity I connected my bluetooth mouse to my Tab (P6810)... and not expecting much, a little blue pointer popped up in the screen, that was amazing, I didn't really expected that! It's extremely useful when you are using text editors, word processors...etc.
It's not perfect anyway, the wheel doesn't work, but you can click (hold) and move up and down in a document for example, you can double click words to select them, you can click (hold) and move the mouse to change to your left/right home screen, it's fast and very responsive!
Another thing that doesn't work is the right click which is ok because there's not such a thing on android anyway....
I don't think everybody knows about this, try it and share your thoughts!
I'm using a Logitech BT mouse V470 which is the best I've ever seen out there.

I'm currently using a Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse, which works pretty well for me. The trackball includes both vertical and horizontal scrolling. Does the V470 do horizontal scrolling as well? What's the difference between the V470 and the Logitech Tablet Mouse?

I have a Kensington slim blade mouse with its own dongle. I plugged the dongle into the usb OTG connection but it isn't working - do you have the type without dongle?

Correct. Mine is Bluetooth, so no dongle.

My logitech USB mouse with the dongle works just fine with my tab, using the USB connector to the tab. It worked on my S2, so I would have guessed it would work on my 7.7.

The Logitech I have is an older MX mouse

got it ages ago for my laptop so 3 years ago.

Samsung should disable USB support for mice just on principle. Bluetooth or GTFO. Having a wired mouse to the 7.7 just looks so...uncivilized.

Okay, my bluetooth mouse with dongle does work! I think my mouse was in pointer mode on my earlier attempt.

Well, because then you have to have a big ugly dongle and USB adapter sticking out of the tab when you could just use the native Bluetooth support instead. It's...displeasing to the eye.

Attitude is just a part of who I am. I am not ashamed of that. Some people might not like it, others don't mind. Frankly, I don't really care either way. Having said that, I generally do my best to tell things as they are and offer my most accurate, honest, and unfiltered opinions, expertise, and reviews. Take that for what it's worth.
Moving along, and speaking of telling it like it is, if your mouse requires a proprietary dongle just for it to work at all, then it's not likely to be Bluetooth (just wireless). See, one of the most important points of Bluetooth, being that is is an open standard and not proprietary, is that anyone can use it. Thus, this eliminates the need for the ugly, cancerous, protrusions known as "dongles."
So, either your mouse isn't in fact Bluetooth (in which case, what are you doing posting in a thread specifically about Bluetooth mice?), -or- your mouse is Bluetooth (in which case, I would like reference my previous statement when I say WTF!? WHY!? Why would you totally defeat the purpose of Bluetooth by using a redundant, ugly, external adapter as opposed to the internal and integrated one already in the 7.7?)

i connect the BT mouse, and keyboard when needed and works like a charm!
It looks cool as well, at least in my opinion....
