This is a tip about pairing the Stowaway Travel Mouse with JASJAR through Bluetooth.
I bought the Stowaway Mouse, and like many others, I could not get the mouse to pair, even though I downloaded the latest driver specifically for HTC Universal (= JASJAR). The setup screen would go from "Scanning for mouse..." to "Initializing connection..." back to "Scanning for mouse..." and on and on until it reports connection failure. I tried multiple times with multiple soft resets, to no avail.
I read online that someone reported he was able to pair after a hard-reset. I didn't do that, because I already have a lot of customization on my unit. I was on the verge of giving up and returning the mouse.
Then something happens by accident. In discoverable mode (after pressing the Discoverable button on the mouse and click "Connect" on the setup screen), while the screen says "Initializing connection...", I pressed the "Discoverable" button again by chance, only to find that it caused the screen to change to "Verifying connection..." and a red square appears on the screen for me to click, just like what the user manual says. After clicking the red square, the mouse started working.
I tried pairing the mouse again, using the same procedure. It paired successfully for the second time, and the third time. So this procedure is re-producible. I did notice there is an optimal timing when you should press that Discoverable button again to make it pair.
I also have the Stowaway bluetooth keyboard working at the same time. I have to say that, with both a mouse and a keyboard, it makes Jasjar a lot more productive.
Another thing I noticed but am not 100% sure, is that by turning off the "Power Efficient Mode" for both the keyboard and the mouse, their bluetooth connections seem more reliable.
Arrow?
Can you see the Arrow on the screen of Jasjar when move the Stowaway Mouse?
Thank
since i bought JasJar i was using this powerful mouse... i solved the problem by paring the mouse than Uncheck HID profile than delete the whole mouse from Bluetooth list.... then try to connect throwgh the Software that came with the mouse .... it will works YaaaaaY :wink:

Yes, the cursor arrow appears whenever the mouse is connected. If the mouse goes into standby, the cursor will disappear. So whenever you see the cursor on the screen, that means the mouse is ready to use.

Maybe I should give it another try. I had also gotten the mouse to work only when I frantically reset the discoverable mode over and over again during pairing. Getting the keyboard and mouse to work at the same time drove me nuts, I was only able to do it once. I had about given up on this, can you advise what you think the timing is for resetting the mouse during pairing?

I would say, wait about 1 second after the screen changes from "Scanning for mouse" to "Initializing connection", then press the Discoverable button again. The timing is not that strict. I believe you can get it working within two or three tries. You can pair the keyboard before or after pairing the mouse. Overall, the mouse connection seems to be less stable than the keyboard connection.
I also noticed that, after you power off Jasjar and the mouse, it is much better to turn on Jasjar first, and when Jasjar has fully woken up, then turn on the mouse. It is easier to restore the mouse connection this way (without re-pairing).
Oh my god, somehow this all worked. I'm using the mouse in safe mode, which is a pain in the arse sometimes when it leaves the mouse icon on the screen, but it's working, for now.
Big big thanks for the tips and inspiration to try this again!
I have a generic bluetooth mouse (www.omiz.net) which pairs and works perfectly fine with my EXEC, only thing is the cursor is not shown i can click around in Word Mobile etc and even scroll... but pretty pointless without a cursor.
I tried using it with the Stowaway BT mouse driver, no luck in pairing.
Unfortunately - I have only been able to get a generic driver for my manhattan generic mouse at http://cabfiles.net but it only works on WM2003SE and not WM5 - maybe we can convinec george to develop a WM5 driver .... :?
in case anyone has given up on this, it looks like the pairing issues might be solved in version 4.4: http://www.thinkoutside.com/support/Drivers.asp?ManufacturerID=17&ModelID=295
It seems like the pairing of both the keyboard and mouse goes much smoother now. I didn't need to reset the mouse connection while it was searching for the device, it just connected. Only problem I had was that the mouse gets a little laggy when using with a BT keyboard at the same time. This was in enhanced mode, not sure if safe mode solves that problem.
Does the mouse work in true vga mode ?

Does someone knows if it is possible to make this driver to work/pair with MS BT mouse?
It's possible to use the hardware keyboard of xperia as a bluetooth keyboard (i.e for ps3)?
Like as bt mouse on diamond.

I'm sure it's possible - it's all pretty standard these days. Of course you would need the right dlls, but then again, the bluetooth fold up keyboard from stowaway (I still have one) didn't need dlls @ all - PNP it was!
Have you tried connecting a HW keyboard?
(p.s. think there was some discussion in Rapheal/Kaiser on this btw)
Have any1 tried it with a PS3?
Would love to have this too! Paid an arm and a leg for the phone, would be glad if it can help me not buy another computer hardware around the house!
I search a lot, but don't find anything.
It should use HID protocol for work, but it doesn't seems exist anything...
However as default don't work with ps3 or pc.
Would be nice I would certainly use it cause I need this actually on my ps3
Hi all
Well I know this is a bit of an odd one but thought would be very cool if anyone had any idea how to do this
I've got an old fully functional k-jam in the cupboard and was thinking of buying a Logitech Dinovo mini Bluetooth keyboard for my Playstation 3, when I thought to myself hey the K-jam has a mini keyboard and bluetooth couldnt these somehow be reprogrammed so that the keyboard output could be output via bluetooth to be used by the PS3.
Would be brilliant if anyone has any ideas
This would be pretty damn cool
so anyone have any ideas how this could be done
Got this working upgrade my ROM to the CR86 Touch HD2.1 ROM installed Mobile remote and it works perfectly as a bluetooth keyboard on my PC, Netbook, and PS3. £99 save on the Logitech Dinovo.
It's good to hear that man
Hi,
I got HTC X7500, but the screen is broken and I don't want to spend 150usd for a new screen - I'm thinking of building the unit inside my car to use it as a GPS navigation, mp3 player, video player and other things like Internet browsing, but the only way how to get a picture is by connecting the device with a VGA out cable to for example a LCD monitor or something like that - I still haven't tried connecting my X7500 to any VGA input device.
My question is - how will I be able to control the HTC X7500 without screen - the joystick is one option, as I will have the device built in, I will be unable to use the HTC keyboard, but I could connect a bluetooth keyboard. Is there any way how to connect something like a mouse to X7500?
Thanks,
Karlis.
Stowaway Bluetooth mouse
Hi,
I have for some time now a Stowaway bluetooth keyboard and a Stowaway Bluetooth mouse.
They are both easy to use over bluetooth connection.
Google for it.
Good luck!

Might not be useful in-car, but if you are working on your screen-dead Athena in the house or with a notebook, this app is a killer. I use it every day.

So i got my nice new Moto G4 phone its great. I do want to connect my bluetooth joystick to it which uses Nibiru app. The joystick connects ok to the phone and if I turn on Nibiru keyboard and go to write a text. I can move along the onscreen keyboard using the joysticks Dpad. However when i try to use the joystick in nibiru games or even with an emulator I cannot get it to work. Joystick worked ok with my old phone and still works fine on my tablet. Any help would be appreciated.
Was your old phone Marshmallow too?

all the settings in nibiru are identical to my tablet one so why wont the joystick work. It pairs ok with nibiru. If i text someone the nibiru keyboard will work i can see if i move the dpad the highlighted letters move so why not in nibiru or emulators. Is it something to do with marshmallow

Most likely a Marshmallow compatibility issue then
