Rii wireless keyboards - Acer Iconia A500

I have both the usb version and the bluetooth version of this keyboard. The keyboard functions on both work, but not the touchpad.

Just picked up the Targus BT keyboard. Paired painlessly, works just fine - typing this note using it!

That stand rules. Anybody that is looking for the best tablet stand for their Iconia should grab one.

Could you provide a little more info on the keyboard? Do you have a model number, a vendor link, etc? I am looking for a functional BT keyboard and so far both my Apple and a generic model do not work.
Any additional information would be most helpful.
Thanks!

I just got my stand and the keyboard, they both are great.
FYI the stand is $49.99 at Staples.

FWIW, I can confirm that the Motorola Xoom keyboard works too -- I'm glad to finally find something functional after trying and returning the Apple KB and the Microsoft Arc USB KB. The app shortcut keys don't work on the A500, but home/back/search and volume controls do, as well as regular typing.

Logitech dinovo bluetooth keyboard and mouse pad
I just got one of these and the keyboard works as well as media buttons,touch mouse pad, and right click is same as back and left click is enter. Pairing was simple and would probably work on devices that take usb keyboards but didn't have bluetooth embedded with the included dongle because it pairs with it with a button no software. Would like to get it working in first player games like Modern Combat. Any ideas How?

Mouse randomly crashes

I use a mouse on my tablet quite a bit, however ever since I got the ability to use a mouse with it, after a while the mouse will freeze and no matter what I do I can't get my tablet to see the mouse again unless I restart it, I'm using the Microsoft arc touch mouse currently, but had the same issue with the mouse I used before it. I have the latest .10 update and I'm rooted. If you need anymore info just let me know.

Strange
I have used my mouse and a full sized keyboard on my a500 for weeks now - ever since the early leaked version of 3.1
Have since upgraded to the latest official stock 3.1, use my mouse and keyboard for hours a day and have no problems with any lockups or the mouse not responding.
Wish I could be of more help.
I can never get my mouse to work on this thing...

Are you on a 3.0 based ROM or a 3.1? As far as I know - mouse only works on a 3.1 based ROM.
Need 3.1 or root + mouse app from Dev forums. I've used a Logitech wireless mouse and a Gear Head mini-usb keyboard w/ trackpad with no issues. I suspect that the mice you're having trouble with may include power-saving hardware & shut off w/o constant communcation
Well both of the mouses I use are microsoft, and its right in the middle of usage that it freezes, the while system will freeze for a second, then I'm not able to user my mouse, the cursor will sit there until I touch the screen then it disappears, and no matter what I do I can't get the system to recognize the mouse again

I've actually find out that it is my usb port that just stops communicating, so I'm restoring it as we speak

Yeah, what he said...
I'm assuming it is this one: http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Bluetooth-Playstatin3-android3-0-Ultrathin/dp/B0044ZM3UM
Looking at the last pic on there I honestly don't think I could use a keyboard that small!
It's so tiny.

[Q] Right click on ICS bug?

I just upgraded my firmware to 4.0.3 and I'm having a little bit of trouble. I use Splashtop HD and it says that it has enabled right and middle click for ICS, but when I try to right click, it just asks if I want to disconnect the session. Is there a way to set right click on an external mouse to open the context menu? I'm using a Logitech MK500 keyboard/mouse combo if that helps any.
Thanks, TechPlease

This is not a bug it it work as design. I would like also to have the old behavior back.
I've seen that on Asus there is an extra menu developed by them to chose the behavior of the right click is it possible to make an app or something to do the same.
Thank you
@Thade "Old behavior"? Do you mean where a long left click will bring up the right click menu? If not, sorry for the misunderstanding on my part. I hope they put that back in for now, as, when I use my mouse I can't right click at all.

Are you still using your Q?

Is anyone still using their Q now that it's been completely abandoned by Google? If so, in what ways are you using it? I was hoping someone here would hack the Q, but it looks slim. Should I throw this thing away? I want to use this things amp!

After they shut down the servers for setting them up, I quit using it. If you use cm 10. 2 with amp support and cheap cast its almost like it still works, but i haven't taken the time to put it on yet. There are guides. Don't trash it though. There are still people that will have uses for them as a desktop computer.
I haven't used mine in 6 months either but I am gonna dust it off and try to load 10.2 on it next week now that the hdmi and spidf are working. Does anyone know what keyboard and mouse combos work? I thought it was a Microsoft wireless 800 combo that I was using last time with wireless adb since there's only one USB.

I just installed cm 10.1 using the method posted by user ianandamy. Works great and my input methods are a Microsoft wireless mouse with with an OTG cable connected to the Q, and I have a wireless Bluetooth keyboard. The only things I would like to see fixed are the primal LED lighting function, and a way of powering off the Q other than unplugging it.

Does it allow it to run like a chromecast and stream media from the phone ? I miss my original q

Actually found mine in the cupboard the other week, got it working thanks to a few forum posts here, running CM on it, using it as a quick XBMC streamer + android games console with a Moga BT joystick... works a treat.

If you install CM on it and then install cheapcast, you can cast to it as if it was a chromecast.
since putting CM11 on this device it feels and works amazing!!
-full screen immersive mode
-transparency
-snappy
-play store works perfectly
If anyone is in the UK and willing to part with their Q, I'd love to make you an offer!
Just send me a PM

[Q] Anyone tried a bluetooth keyboard?

Hi guys!
Just wondering if anyone has tried a bluetooth keyboard with the Note 3 yet. I remember using one on the Note 8.0 I had briefly was an exercise in pain. Do they work okay? Do they have any of the weird key-freezing/repeat problems?
Thanks!
Yea, been using one for a solid 2 weeks now. Works fine for me. No sissues. Just wish I could figure out how to bind the fox 12 keys as shortcuts like home or volume etc. But as just a keyboard with normal functions it works just fine. Even got alt+tab.

Would you mind telling me which keyboard you got? I'm wanting to get something of decent quality (Logitech, maybe?) that is also confirmed to work.
yea, I'm actually using an Apple wireless (M/N: A1314) that i got at goodwill for $6 with my note 3, but I feel a Logitech should work just fine as well.
