Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone knows a bluetooth program that can make my HTC Herald keyboard act as a bluetooth keyboard for my laptop. I hooked my laptop to my plasma tv so I can use it as a Media Center. But I want to use my phone keyboard to type wirelessly through bluetooth. Say if I was using MS Word on the laptop, I want to type from my HTC herald through bluetooth instead of actually typing on the laptop. Hope you get what I mean. If anyone knows a program like that please reply. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
Maybe you can use a VNC viewer for that. Not perfect, but will work.

Dear Prophet users,
Is there a way to use my nokia 6230 as a bluetooth keypad for my QTEK S200?
On screen keyboard is not useful most of the time.
I'm an expert on my nokia 6230's keyboard.
If it were possible to use it as a bluetooth keyboard for QTEK S200 it would be perfect for me.
And If it is not possible is there a blutooth keypad with 9 key phone key layout which can be used as "phone pad" text entry tool in WM5.0
!! NO BODY?? !!
No body have an idea ??

Can't you use the built in phone pad with your fingers?
Personally, I use Spb Full Screen Keyboard
I've been googling for a bluetooth keypad for a long time. Touch screen keypad is definitely not a good idea, at least for me. I'm on the road most of the time. Used to be able to sms without looking at the screen while driving. Can't do it now. I know I'm not suppose to do that but.... excuse... excuse... excuses....
The closest (but not close enough) is a device called "Frog" something. Can't remember the name. Emailed the distributor in Singapore. They didn't follow thru with my query. Sad....
I have a omz bluetooth keyboard,no wording in dopod 830 too...
No one ??
Actually I have an idea but I'm not a programmer so it is just an idea for me.
There are some software those enable users to connect their PC(server) via Bluetooth (and/or GPRS) enabled mobile phones (client).
There are two parts of the sotfware
1st to be installed on PC and works as server
2nd is a java program to be run on Mobile Phone.
This enables the mobile user to control the PC via mobile phone.
User can use navigation key as mouse and keypad of mobile phone as keyboard of the PC.
If there were a server part for WM 5.0, it would also work for PPC to mobile phone management.
Can anybody have a proramming background to perform this kind of software.
I'm sure it would have so much buyers.
no one ??
isn't there a good programmer to do this application
I think what you're describing there is remote desktop. This is already built into Windows Mobile (5 & 6), and can connect to any PC running XP Pro/Server/Vista. Alternatively you could use a VNC client opn your WM Device (there are a few around) and a VNC server on your PC (again, there are a few variants). Although this sounds like a good idea its pretty fiddly trying to control a whole PC using a touchscreen and an onscreen keyboard, and if you're anyhting like me you'll get sick of it pretty fast and just use a laptop.
As for the PC connecting to the WM device, this can be done using the Remote Display Control Powertoy released by Microsoft a couple of years back. You'll have to google for that one though. If you cant find it give me a buzz and ill post it somewhere.
Hi
Does there exist something like http://www.mulliner.org/bluetooth/xkbdbthid.php for Windows Mobile?
The Windows Remote Desktop client for the Nokia 770 (lovely 800x480 screen!) requires use of an external BT keyboard, and since I already carry my HTC Hermes with me, and the Nokia depends on it for GPRS Internet access, it makes sense to use /it/ as the keyboard. Is this possible?
Google has only turned up physical folding keyboards, or replacements for MS's own on-screen keyboard (for use in WM only)
Cheers,
Gavin.
push!
I'm searching for exactly the same thing, does anybody know something like this?
regards
for now this is the solution which is the closest by far:
anyRemote
otherwise tuxmobil.org has some programs listed, but nothing really compareable to xkbd-bthid. sadly.
Any luck for this software?
I am coming from SE K800i which included a wonderful bluetooth HID remote control that was so much customizible... and having something similar on a WinMo (SE X1) will be great...
it looks like MobileRemote from mobilesrc
Does anyone know of a way to use your wing as a tv remote? possible? and also can i use my data plan internet connection to use remote desktop? can you point me in the direction of a tutorial maybe?
i have been wondering the same thing, it would be awesome if there was a program to use your wing as a universial remote, i know that there is a program for psp
well the wing doesn't have an infrared port, so I'm pretty sure it wont work with some type of adapter *cries*
I can confirm. Because the Wing/Herald/Atlas has no IR port, it can't be used as a tv remote.
I suppose if you had a media center you could issue commands over like wifi or something. I know there are like vnc programs for ppc, and you can use it as a mouse.

Wow dude...congrats....I think you post more than anyone on here!
Well, how sophisticated do you want to make things? Check out LinuxMCE.com... The possibilities are endless...
i suppose you could patch it through ip or something, but that gets complicated enough that you might as well just reach for the remote

Hi,
I was thinking to buy a Logitech dinovo keyboard for my HTPC
http://ces.cnet.com/i/bto/20080104/lifestlyerichblog_540x360.JPG
... but then I wounderd if there is any application for WM6.5 that could use bluetuth to control a PC keybord.
I know i could use RDP client on my phone but then I get the screen on the phone as well..
I just want to use my TP2 as a keyboard remote to a Win7 PC with wifi or bluetouth..
Is this possible, does it exist a program for this?
Look for gremote .cab or also nueUSBKeyboard.
Both of these are located in this thread under Utilities. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550973
I have tried the latter and it is what it is...just a keyboard through USB. Gremote I gave a shot...but was having trouble getting my Bluetooth to work on my PC...my issues not the program.
Touch Pro 2 as remote BT Keyboard
I saw an app (believe it or not) on the Windows Mobile Marketplace for $1.99
called MobileRemote that does exactly what you are looking for including mouse functions.
It uses BlueTooth to connect as an HID Keyboard.
It's from MobileSRC.
Cheers
You might look into GRemote, it does everything. However, just at tip, if you buy any keyboard software that uses Bluetooth, make sure you test the trial version first. I know quite a few of the mouse/keyboard programs don't work on the Rhodium because of the Widcomm Bluetooth stack used instead of the Microsoft Bluetooth stack.
Wow, Thanks everybody!!
Now I have some things to tryout in the weekend..
Cheers!
Gremote works best over WiFi. I use it daily on my media center and love it. I'm planning on buying the paid version soon.
BRETT
I love GRemote, but it's sad that the computers that I'd use them on the most (work and school PCs) don't allow me to install the necessary software!
Wow Gremote was everything I wanted!
Works great with XMBC and Aeon skin
Thanks!
Ah man..u guys suck..now I gotta try wifi with gremote
gremote is working over wifi...however I cannot use any of the menus or settings on host PC. Is this a Trial limitation or something wrong with the install?
I can open settings program from taskbar...but nothing further.
wifi on my TP2 to a Win7 x64 works fantastic.... Playing around for some hour and now a get use to use it like a normal mouse.
one thing that is anoying is that gremote on the tp2 always turn on BT,, cant find any way to disable it
I am using it to type and tether. I can feel the waves killing my brain cells but, it feels good. lol I might have to fork up the 14 bucks to pay for the full service just to get the annoying demo message to go away. now if only I could get it to work on my Xbox 360. hmmmm jk
the app rocks!
oh... but i did find one problem. when typing using hardware keyboard; I can't seem to get the touchpad to work. or any of the control buttons. "DEL, TAB, CTRL, ALT" anyone know what is up with that?

[Q] keyboard and touchscreen as mouse for remote controlling pc? >not remote desktop<
Hello,
I'm a total noob regarding to software for WM6.5, but i wondered, is there some kind of program that allows me to use my phone's keyboard and touchscreen as keyboard / mouse for my desktop? Would be nice for my plasma tv with desktop connected to it..
Thanks in advance.

I use this
I use GRemote. It's a client-server program. One part runs on your PC, the other on your WM or Android phone. I think there's a free and a Pro version, not sure, might just be the paid version (which I have) and it's *AWESOME*, I use it just like you'd mentioned - I have my PC hooked up to my HDTV as a HTPC/media center, and I can use my phone as a trackpad, air/gyro mouse, hardware keyboard, media remote, generic remote, and gyro joystick/racing wheel/etc for gaming. It can connect over WiFi or BT. I don't want to sound like I'm going to marry it or anything but it is a pretty awesome program. The media remote functions work with Winamp, WMP, XBMC, VLC, others.
EDIT: Sorry, got so hot and bothered talking about the program, forgot to mention the website. It's at gbmsoftware dot com.
