Can I use a Bluetooth mouse for my EEE Pad Transformer?
If so, any suggestions as to which one to get?
Thanks!!
Oh and one other question.. with the dock can you use a wireless mouse (i.e. plugin the dongle into the dock usb port)?
Yes you can. I've been using my Microsoft mini notebook mouse which is just straight bluetooth (doesn't even come with a dongle) - worked absolutely fine right off the bat.
My only issue is that the moment is a bit slow for my liking, and there's no setting to change the cursor movement speed.
Apple Magic Mouse should work fine..
If you want a cheap option and have a Fry's nearby I've found that this Inland bluetooth travel mouse works great with the Asus Transformer. The catch being that it didn't work a bit prior to the 3.1 OTA upgrade but after that it's been working great. It's a nice portable size and pretty adequate for as much as I use it.

I bought cheapest bluetooth mouse out there (the producer is Manta or sth like that) and it work fine, very fine.
I am using my Logitech mini mouse from my Laptop and pluged into the USB it works fine.. I am thinking that a Bluetooth mouse would be kinda nice though..

Has anyone managed to get a bluetooth mouse to work just with the pad,i.e no dock involved at all? I ask as I have a very fancy ms bluetooth mouse but my TF wont see it as it hasn't got the drivers which are added to my laptop which , obviously, are designed for windows and not android..not sure how to get around this issue short of buying the dock and just plugging into the usb with a cheapo corded mouse which kinda defeats the object of what I'd like to do

I'm using the least expensive one I could find, a Gigabyte I got from Newegg. Turns out it's nicer than any other bluetooth I've tried. I got it to use with the pad and it pairs and works fine with or without the dock connected.
There are no drivers for android for any mouse, so as far as I know there's no way to map the buttons. There is however a setup section for the mouse where you can adjust the cursor speed.
edited to add: doh! - I just noticed how old this thread is. I had done a search and this was near the top. I guess I forgot where I was.

Doesn't work for me.
I am looking for a bluetooth mouse that will work with the iconia a501. Anyone have one to recommend? Will any bluetooth mouse work?
Thanks,

I already had a Microsoft 5000 mouse... had to pair it a couple of times before it would work, kept saying paired but not connected. About the third try it worked, I knew it should as there was a video on youtube showing that exact mouse working...
No idea if all nice work.
Blue tooth mouse
The Microsoft 5000 is the only mouse I could get to work on my A500.
So how did you get the Microsoft 5000 mouse to connect? I just received mine, it will pair, but never connect???
Thanks,
Kevin
Logitech Anywhere MX is running without problems.
Yeah, my Logitech Anywhere MX works fine too but, it's not bluetooth. Have to use the USB dongle. Clearly a full bluetooth one is best.
I've also gotten an older Logitech USB cordless mouse (which is being replaced by the Anywhere MX) also worked as well as a generic Dell USB keyboard.
Only problem I have is that the cursor on the screen is very difficult to see if your background is dark like mine is. The cursor is black surrounded by a thin blue outline and I can hardly see it.
I still can not get the mouse to connect. It is paired, but not connected. Is there anything else I need to do to get this thing to work?? Anyone???
Thanks,
Kevin
Most any BT mouse should work. I paired a cheapo Bluetooth mouse I bought off ebay and a Razer Orichi.
I have a Microsoft 5000 and it pairs and connects perfectly without any kind of trickery. Maybe your ROM is just picky? Which version of Honeycomb are you running? Official mouse support didn't come until 3.1 (there was a custom script for USB mice in 3.0 however)

Mine is running stock rom, only rooted. It is 3.01. Is there a way to get the mouse to work with it?
Thanks,

Logitech V470 works like a charm. Found and paired at the first try.
my Logitech MC Revolution 5500 KB/Mouse are connecting nicely. but not sure how many people actually wanna spend that much on a set. (159.99 usd)
I'm running kekinash's custom ROM and I use Apple's Magic Mouse (don't ask, long story).

Another vote for the Microsoft 5000
Logitech dinovo BT keyboard w/ trackpad
the keyboard in my title is sweet I posed here because it has a tracked for mouse and is super nice!
I have the Logitech bluetooth keyboard for PS3 with the integrated touchpad and it pairs up and works just fine. Too bad the keyboad is bigger tha the a500! I'm running Taboonay rom.
My a4tech g7 - 540 works fine, but it's too big to be portable.

I have this www.amazon.com/dp/B00325ME7W works great, with the included dongle. which is tiny.
Just for curiosity I connected my bluetooth mouse to my Tab (P6810)... and not expecting much, a little blue pointer popped up in the screen, that was amazing, I didn't really expected that! It's extremely useful when you are using text editors, word processors...etc.
It's not perfect anyway, the wheel doesn't work, but you can click (hold) and move up and down in a document for example, you can double click words to select them, you can click (hold) and move the mouse to change to your left/right home screen, it's fast and very responsive!
Another thing that doesn't work is the right click which is ok because there's not such a thing on android anyway....
I don't think everybody knows about this, try it and share your thoughts!
I'm using a Logitech BT mouse V470 which is the best I've ever seen out there.

I'm currently using a Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse, which works pretty well for me. The trackball includes both vertical and horizontal scrolling. Does the V470 do horizontal scrolling as well? What's the difference between the V470 and the Logitech Tablet Mouse?
I have a Kensington slim blade mouse with its own dongle. I plugged the dongle into the usb OTG connection but it isn't working - do you have the type without dongle?

Correct. Mine is Bluetooth, so no dongle.
My logitech USB mouse with the dongle works just fine with my tab, using the USB connector to the tab. It worked on my S2, so I would have guessed it would work on my 7.7.

The Logitech I have is an older MX mouse

got it ages ago for my laptop so 3 years ago.
Samsung should disable USB support for mice just on principle. Bluetooth or GTFO. Having a wired mouse to the 7.7 just looks so...uncivilized.
Okay, my bluetooth mouse with dongle does work! I think my mouse was in pointer mode on my earlier attempt.

Ok, The Logitech Tablet Mouse looks exactly like mine V420 BUT according to customers reviews on Amazon the horizontal/vertical scrolling DOES work on this one....
I'm probably getting one for my tab and keep the V420 for my laptop....

Wait a second... You have a Bluetooth mouse, and your 7.7 has Bluetooth built-in, and you're using an external dongle instead... WTF!? Why!?

WTF with attitude? This particular mouse only works with its proprietary dongle.

Well, because then you have to have a big ugly dongle and USB adapter sticking out of the tab when you could just use the native Bluetooth support instead. It's...displeasing to the eye.
Anyway, the occasions where I bother at all with a mouse for any phone/tablet I use my trusty Microsoft 5000.

Attitude is just a part of who I am. I am not ashamed of that. Some people might not like it, others don't mind. Frankly, I don't really care either way. Having said that, I generally do my best to tell things as they are and offer my most accurate, honest, and unfiltered opinions, expertise, and reviews. Take that for what it's worth.
Moving along, and speaking of telling it like it is, if your mouse requires a proprietary dongle just for it to work at all, then it's not likely to be Bluetooth (just wireless). See, one of the most important points of Bluetooth, being that is is an open standard and not proprietary, is that anyone can use it. Thus, this eliminates the need for the ugly, cancerous, protrusions known as "dongles."
So, either your mouse isn't in fact Bluetooth (in which case, what are you doing posting in a thread specifically about Bluetooth mice?), -or- your mouse is Bluetooth (in which case, I would like reference my previous statement when I say WTF!? WHY!? Why would you totally defeat the purpose of Bluetooth by using a redundant, ugly, external adapter as opposed to the internal and integrated one already in the 7.7?)
Logitech dinovo mini works fine, I can even wake up the tab from sleep! Thanks for the idea!

I'm using a Microsoft BT Notebook Mouse 5000, and it works just fine as well. I just wish ScummVM would have better mouse controls, since that's my main use for a mouse...
Not just mouse
I also have the sam keyboard for this time. its sweet.
i dont travel with laptops anymore, since i just need my email and some MS Office stuff.
i connect the BT mouse, and keyboard when needed and works like a charm!
It looks cool as well, at least in my opinion....
Hey guys, I tried out an experiment with the galaxy note here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3j34BlV8acA&lc
It involved the control of the device using a standard PC wireless mouse from 20 feet away. I just wanted to see if there was anyone in this forum that could try the same thing to see if works on the galaxy S3. It would me much appreciated as it would give me an insight into the drivers in the S3. (The S2 fails this same experiment)
Cheers! :highfive:
working
i'm using apple's magic mouse and its really working like charm on my S3
for connecting magic mouse i dont need any dongle it works directly with bluetooth of my handset.. and
its really osm i jsss loved it some times lol
I've just plugged my wireless Logitech keyboard and mouse into the S3 via a USB-OTG cable and both worked flawlessly :good:
For info, i'm running the XXDLI6 leaked JB rom.
Yeah. Been using various wireless keyboards for a while now

Does anyone know of an app that can recognise a multi buttoned mouse? I have a logitech gaming mouse that works to an extent but most of the buttons just go back in all apps.
It'd be great if there was some way of making them work different functions of the phone. Turn it into more of a PC when it's hooked up to a tv.
Hey bro. Tapatalk brought this to you.
I tested my Thinkpad Bluetooth Mouse on my Galaxy SIII and it works fine.
am using this for some weeks and its working good with my logitech wireless keyboard and mouse
Cheers! The S3 side of town seems friendly

and ipod works too
Hey guys,
I have also the Galaxy S3 and it works fine connected with keyboard & mouse over OTG cable. I can also play with it (Modern Combat), but the problem is, that the mouse is like my finger. When i draw the mouse to the left or to the right it does not work, it works only if I click with the mouse the control pannel of the game. I would like to play like on PC. On PC it's so, that if you draw the mouse to the left, your view is changing to the left.
I hope you understand, my English skills are not the best..
Maybe this is a dumb question, but what is the launcher is he using?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I am using the standard launcher from CyanogenMod 10, I think it's called Trebuchet. But does this really matter?
You understood? I mean playing like an ego-shooter on PC. On the S3 the mouse is like / replaces my finger.
Thanks!

As cheap as it is this keyboard/mouse combo has worked for me. It's a little bit of a pain to get the mouse to pair correctly but it worked eventually.

I've Googled around on how to get the PS3 Keypad to work and I haven't been able to find anything except how to connect the PS3 controller. I've tried pairing the Keypad the same as the controller and it did not work. Do you have a link on where it explains how to pair the PS3 Keypad? Your help would be greatly appreciated

How did you manage to get yours to work. Mine connects to my Apple bluetooth keyboard, but nothing happens after that.
