[Q] Help: Adding bluetooth mouse to Nexus 7 with broken touchscreen

I have a Nexus 7 tablet and a few days ago I noticed the screen glass seemed to be popping up out of the plastic a little, I tried to push it back down and the glass panel on the screen cracked along the edge.
The tablet still works fine but will not accept input from the touchscreen, I plan to replace the screen since I know they're glued to the glass panel, but until I can locate a replacement screen panel I'd like to use my tablet with an apple magic mouse.
I know it's possible to pair a magic mouse with the tablet, my question is how can I do this without being able to use the touchscreen?
Also if anyone has a source that sells the replacement screen+glass it would be much appreciated, I can't seem to find any that have it in stock.
My tablet is unlocked and rooted, running a custom kernel and stock JB.
Well I managed to add my bluetooth device, posting here in case someone else needs the information.
I used a USB OTG cable to plug in a wireless receiver for a logitech mouse/KB combo and it was immediately recognized by the tablet, so I used that to configure the bluetooth.
It can also be done by modifying the bluetooth configuration directly using ADB, but only if USB debugging is enabled. (Flashing a pre-modified bluetooth config might also work, but I haven't tried)

Modifying my old laptop's case?

Alright, So I've got an old Compaq Presario v5000. The hinges are broken on it. I've been debating whether to get a new laptop for X-mas or build a good PC for the same price. I've come to the conclusion of disassembling the laptop, and creating a case from a good material, possible a sheet of aluminum. I know a welder, and I can get him to weld the case together wit an opening and a mount to put the motherboard and screen in. After doing this, I could have something like a portable All-In-One PC. Does anyone have some feedback, advice, or resources for me? Also, I'd be taking the Touchpad and Keyboard away from the motherboard and putting in a USB hub or buying the wireless Logitech Keyboard/Mouse to control it.
It's not worth it. I would honestly just pick between the new desktop or the new laptop because what you're going to be building will most likely end up being immobile anyways. So you could get a new laptop and then go ahead with this idea and instead put it in a casing like a desktop computer for home. That's what I would do.

Not much we can do here without photos/brief description of this "tine pin". This forum is rather not targeted for laptops.
Anyway, you have to probably connect the switch lines for good, soldering it together or something. Unless here's anybody who disassembled VAIO like yours already and will know more you have to provide us pictures of the switch, its connection of the board, the board, everything to get more detailed advices.
try this it came up on google search for sony vaio wifi switch bypass
forum.notebookreview.com/networking-wireless/519763-wireless-softswitch-off-can-i-override.html
There are usb blue tooth and wifi adapters cheap.

Sounds to me like your repair shop not the most innovative in work arounds.
Switch should be easy to bypass & then use Windows mobility Centre to toggle Wifi & perhaps the BT Mobility Centre add-on if you on 32bit (no version for 64bit)
Would be surprised to see a power line within a switch as thin as a human hair & I have repaired a few notebook switches over the years, even the board printed circuit can be repaired within reason. Really need good images to give best advise though.

Need help: repurpose old android screen as secondary touch monitor (wired)

I've a galaxy tab 2 7.0 which is beyond repair and hard bricked, I was wondering if I could use it's display and touch as a secondary monitor for windows, with a reasonable response time, for productivity. It would be a tremendous help.

Please read the post before reply. Device is hard bricked. Software solution not applicable. Hardware solution required.
You probably already gave up on this, but I am answering this so other people get at least sortof an answer.
For the display alone you could try to use a display driver board (Just google for "make your own monitor, DIY LCD controller board" Sadly can't post links yet..)
Will be hard as soldering to the connectors of the display is annoying/nearly impossible.
Next would be touch, and there you would also need to find a driver board (designing this yourself is way out of the scope usually) and then calibrate the coordinates. (Probably okay under linux/unix, next to impossible under windows)
Overall cost would probably surpass what you would pay for a cheap, new device which could run a software solution. (which would be more portable and cleaner looking.)
If you are a linux user, you can tether the tablet to your pc, get a vnc server running on it and then stream the feed via ADB over the usb-cable to your tablet. (ADB can connect ports from your tablet to your labtop and vice versa). This means that you dont have to pay anything for an app, and also do custom stuff like just sharing certain parts of the screen to the tablet etc...
