I use the logitech bluetooth keyboard for android 3.0+. It has built in hotkeys to open some apps like fn+f5. Can anyone explain to me how this works? I imagine that it is just somekind of hook that catches these keycodes. I would like to add some keycodes to it so that I can have more functionality. Anyone have any ideas on where android stores these keycodes?

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
according to these screenshots, http://www.android-x86.org/screenshot , from the android x86 project, android has been made to work with a mouse. it has also been made to work with a bluetooth keyboard. is it possible that maybe we will someday have bluetooth mouse support? im thinking Quake 3, people. thatll be awesome.
WHAT?! i ran the hidd script with my mouses mac address and it worked. holllyyy ****. does anyone know if theres a way to edit settings, like sensitivity, and possibly rotate the input? because when the screen is in landscape, for games such as quake 3 for instance, the input still works as if it was in portrait. or at least show the cursor?
I think it's time to start a [THINKTANK] thread
I am trying to find out if the only thing that should be keeping someone from remote controlling an NON-ROOTED android device with a PC is not being able to inject mouse and keyboard events? what other issues could arise?
I have been working with vnc server and screencast and the keyboard and mouse seems to be the only issue i can find in the code.google site and with testing. I've tried to contact the devs of those apps with no luck.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Hi. Is there any way to remote control the tab? Like something that does what it does when I touch the screen but remotely? I know there are touchpads and various bluetooth mice. But they rely on a mouse pointer system (no multitouch). What I want is remote control but using the same fashion of touch system (swiping and pinching to zoom etc). I want to do this without having to look at the remote controlling device (so I can still see a pointer to know where I need to move to).
I seem to remember someone mentioning this could be done with another Android device like a phone?
Folks,
I want to try using the galaxy note as a tool for some quick fixes to the code and services. I want to get a foldable bluetooth keyboard. Setup vi (or emacs) browsing on amazon machine or maybe a skywriter server. I currently use connectbot and hackers keyboard. I have set the hacker's keyboard to a very small size and use the S-pen for typing. It is good for basic browsing.
I am evaluating buying either Nokia su-8w Bluetooth keyboard or Verbatim foldable keyboard. Please let me know if anyone uses such keyboards. The nokia keyboard seems really small but android specific keyboards may have shortcuts to android functions. Can I modify the keymap(xmodmap) file to bring in the same functionality even from the Nokia keyboard.
Any other App suggestions, especially for code browsing (c++, python)?
thanks,
