Hey!
Is there a program that would emulate a pc trackpad and keyboard for android that would connect to a pc over bluetooth and let me type and move the mouse cursor with my phone? It's for my mini pc, i usually carry it around but i dont have a spare keyboard and mouse, i considered buying a foldable flexible keyboard but 40$ for a bluetooth keyboard is slightly too much for me, and i dont write alot on that pc.
So is there one?

You can try PRemoteDroid on the market. it has WiFi and Bluetooth I can't get Bluetooth to work. It could be cause I have a cheap Bluetooth adapter to. but WiFi works for me. You got to download the server side to.

I purchased a logitech for android bluetooth keyboard with stand, and a microsoft wedge touch mouse (which is epic) and i am having a problem
basically when i have the keyboard attached by itself it work fine, but when i connect the mouse to the bluetooth in the device to keyboard 'jams' on a certain key, like AAAAAAAAAAAAA...but over and over, i was wondering if anyone has either had the same issue and got a fix, or if anyone else has a bluetooth keyboard and mouse for there nexus 7, i want it bluetooth as i dont want the USB to OTG things hanging of my device.
If anyone can help me i would be very happy
THANKS YOUSS

I'm having this exact same issue. I actually traded in the keyboard thinking it was defective and have the same problem with another BT keyboard. All of these devices work perfectly fine on my PC and other tablet. Anyone else heard of this or know of a potential fix? It's supremely annoying to not be able to use a BT keyboard+mouse at the same time. I'm using a stock unrooted N7 with the latest update.

I have a Bluetooth Keyboard and he works perfectly if im using the 4.2.2. Now only the letters work, no Space, no enter, no backspace and nothing more... Anyone have this problem too?
(Sorry for my poor English)

Based on Google Code Forum users, I developed the app to solve this problem:

Tested on my Nexus 10 and work perfectly.
Need Root! Use at your own risk.
Same problem

I have the same problem. Everything worked great on 4.2.2, but the upgrade to 4.3 today broke my bluetooth keyboard. It reports as connected, but the onscreen keyboard doesn't disappear and only some of the letter keys work. Delete, language, back, home, sleep, all stopped working.
I have a Nexus 7 with a Zagg keyboard.
Anyone have an idea?
In the same boat. Original Nexus 7 + Zagg bluetooth keyboard no longer works.
I also have a Zagg bluetooth keyboard that won't work with Android 4.3.
Is anyone having trouble with a bluetooth keyboard on Android 4.3 that isn't a Zagg keyboard?

I have a Kensington UK bluetooth keyboard and although it shows as connected and typing the numbers to pair it worked, I get no input at all...
So you're better off than I am
I have a GMYLE keyboard and it will connect but no key will register on screen

I got the same problem with my bluetooth keyboard and other issue with the ShareKM app
The cursor is invisible.
I think this might be an Android 4.3 issue rather than a device specific issue. I have a N7 (2013) and my Apple Keyboard repeats characters sporadically and occasionally inserts spaces out of order.
My Apple A1255 keyboard pairs but no longer connects in 4.3 on my Nexus 7 (2012). Works on my Nexus 4 with 4.3 and worked on 4.2.2 no problems.
On your nexus 4 is the typing smooth and accurate? I'd like to see if this is a AOSP issue or a hardware.

I have a Kensington Keyboard and I can pair but not type at all. I tested on a Galaxy Nexus 4.3 and a Nexus 10 4.3
Here is a link to the issue - if someone is interested
There is also a temporary workaround:
Issue 58202: Apple Bluetooth keyboard not working in 4.3
PS I cannot post links - I'm new. Search for said issue on google.
From the issue page:
can confirm that renaming /system/usr/keylayout/Vendor_0a5c_Product_8502.kl fixes it(ZaggKeys Flex here). Logcat now shows that it's loading the key layout from /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl.
Issue link: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=58202
I'm going to try the rename tomorrow to see if it works.

Ok - I renamed my /system/usr/keylayout/Vendor_0a5c_Product_8502.kl to /system/usr/keylayout/Vendor_0a5c_Product_8502.kl.old and rebooted.
Paired my keyboard and everything worked flawlessly. Since I'm from Germany I wanted to switch to a german layout. You can switch from the generic layout to the german by choosing the appropriate layout on Language and Input. Not all keys are working (like the mute button or the current apps running button) but I can finally type.
I will check my bluetooth keyboard when I get off.

Ya, that was my post. It seems that Android, as of 4.3, is incorrectly detecting various bluetooth keyboards(all?) as "Broadcom Bluetooth Device", with keyboard type "KEYBOARD_TYPE_NON_ALPHABETIC", which is typically used for bluetooth game controllers(verified programmatically in the code for a game I'm working on).
For those looking to fix it: Renaming the file above requires root access. It's probably possible using a root file explorer, but I used a root terminal(specifically, terminal emulator logged in as root). I'll post here some instructions on how to accomplish it if you're using a terminal:
Note: first line is only needed if using a shell that doesn't automatically log into root. For example, it's unnecessary if using "adb shell" from a remote computer
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cd /system/usr/keylayout
mv Vendor_0a5c_Product_8502.kl Vendor_0a5c_Product_8502.kl.bak
After that, reboot and you *should* be golden(I take no responsibility if this in some way breaks your device or generally doesn't work; this is just what worked for me).
I honestly haven't tried using a root explorer, but in theory that would just involve navigating to /system/usr/keylayout in said explorer and renaming the file from the GUI. Assuming, of course, that the explorer knows to remount /system as read/writable(or has a function to do so, in which case: do that first)
I have tested both my Freedom Pro and Celluon Magic Cube Bluetooth Keyboards on both the Nexus 4 and
Nexus 10 devices running the newly released 4.3.
Both keyboards worked fine on both the N4 and N10 when runing 4.2.2.
Now the Magic Cube will work with the N10 but not my N4 as it will not connect.
But the Freedom Pro keyboard connects straight away and will work fine with both the N10 and N4.
So i think some things fixed with the bluetooth in the 4.3 OS update has broken other things.
Ah well the old saying is if it is not broken fix it anyway.
Need some advice please...been trying to connect my LG G4 to my Nexus Player via the AndroidTV Remote app and haven't had any success.
I've tried connecting via WiFi and BT but neither work. I can see the device, but upon attempting to Connect via WiFi the screen pauses like it's trying to start a connection, but flickers back to the device list.
Trying via BT pairing I can connect my phone but the App won't launch (even with phone WiFi turned off).
Any suggestions here? The only thing I haven't tried doing is taking my old Logitech Revue off the network to see if there's perhaps some interference with the AndroidTV connector.
Doesn't look like anyone has experienced this issue, on the forums -- would definitely appreciate help as the Nexus Player on-screen keyboard is terribly slow!
Thanks.
Bump!
Same issue here with my Nexus 6p and Nexus player....
Please help!

Same glitch here. Changed batteries but no luck. Was on beta, then reverted back to stock N. But still same problem.

Yeah don't think I ever solved this one. Moved on to a Nvidia Shield TV, the Android TV remote app works reliably. Good luck!
My NP remote keeps unpairing from the NP after a couple of days. If you leave the remote in that state, it will keep flashing the white LED on the remote (looking to be paired?) and drain the batteries.
Anyone else have that problem too, and is there a fix?
It is running the stock unrooted Android 8.0

I think your bluetooth is disabled
if you have access to a usb keyboard of some sort and an plug into your nexus player, find and download (sideload) an android terminal app. in the command prompt, enter:
su
service call bluetooth_manager 8
service call bluetooth_manager 6
