Bluetooth Mouse - Xoom Accessories

With BT Mouse support coming in the next update, what kinds of mice are you guys planning to get or already have?
I'm looking at some on amazon, but I'm not sure which to get yet.

I was actually wondering if my magic mouse will work..... anyone know?

All over the place. Please see:

Though keep in mind, it won't be out for another two weeks (or possibly longer).

I assume it means when a mouse is connected, a mouse pointer shows up on screen right?
kinda hard without it !

I have an MS Bluetooth mouse 5000. I can connect it to my Xoom and It is showing as an input device, but it does not work.
only mouse I had working is a usb one I used on it. (Micro USB to USB Female connector)

What do you mean by "only mouse I had working"? I just plugged a USB mouse and nothing is showing up or doing anything, just lights it up.

that's the thing... try randomly clicking ... maybe there's just no mouse pointer on the screen?

Moved, clicked, scrolled, no reaction whatsoever on any software of the Xoom. I have no idea what that guy is talking about. I have yet to see anyone report any form of a working mouse on the Xoom.

use this software install the CAB and restart your phone and reconnect the mouse you will see the mous !!:
Thanks, but... it doesn't seem to work
I did exactly as you told me, after resetting the device I get a message screen with lots of squares, but nothing happens. I can pair the mouse as before, but nothing more.
What to do? Thanks...

[Q] Bluetooth BT Keyboard and Mouse

I see that USB Host/OTG seems to work with USB keyboards and mice.
Is there a way to get a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to work?
I ask this because since the NG uses MHL, there is no way to power the device, use HDMI, AND use USB Host mode.
MHL does not provide for data use, just power.
I paired my Dinovo Mini and it just worked - keyboard input and mouse (a pointer appears).
That was one thing I never could get to work in Gingerbread.

Do you have access to an MHL adapter. I wonder if the cursor appears in HDMI mirror mode?

[Q] USB / Bluetooth Keyboard ends up as Player 1

Hey All,
I've contacted OUYA support (and have a dialog going with them) about this, but thought I'd throw a line out here as well.
I've got a bluetooth Microsoft Entertainment Keyboard 7000 as well as a USB Logitech K400 keyboard.
Both work pretty well with the OUYA (though I don't use both simultaneously for obvious reasons).
One thing I've noticed, however, is that no matter what order I pair the OUYA controllers and keyboard (or connect the USB keyboard) in, the keyboard ends up being player 1 after a period of time.
Example:
Pair OUYA controller 1
Pair OUYA controller 2
Connect USB keyboard
After a day or so, and possibly a full power cycle of the device, the keyboard ends up being Player 1.
This doesn't pose an issue for the most part (the OUYA controllers display that they are players 2 and 3), but some games specifically rely on the device that is identified as Player 1 to actually be an OUYA controller in the game, and therefore I have to go through a whole rigamarole of unpairing all controllers / keyboards, disconnecting the USB keyboard, and doing a full shutdown of the device, then powering it back on and waiting for the pairing wizard to pop up so I can re-pair my controllers.
The real question here is, has anyone else experienced this, and if so have you found a viable workaround?
I'd prefer that the keyboard (whether USB or bluetooth) doesn't get detected as a controller period, but simply acts as an auxiliary means of input for fields where I need to type something in, move a mouse, etc.
Thanks!

Yes, I have exactly the same issue with a Logitech K400 as well. Very annoying, I haven't found a workaround yet.
I have an Ouya controller, a PS3 controller and the K400 in that order and after a while the K400 takes over controller position 1.
There needs to be some way of locking controller 1, or at least a way to quickly change controller positions from within the interface without needing to repair everything.
I had the exact same problem, after looking around for several days trying to find a way to get my controllers paired to slot 1&2. Installed the Blue Board app from the OUYA market.
I've been installed it on my phone, got to to to pair, and used it a couple of times. After that I noticed that my controllers properly paired to slot 1 & 2, and if I hook up my keyboard it properly goes into a different slot.
Blasted from my Samsung Galaxy SIII (CM10.1 Masta Mix).
Over here it is the same problem.
I use a Rapoo E2700 Keyboard with touchpad. It is connected via a seperate USB wireless-dongle.
[A little o.t. but i want to tell everybody thant the keyboard is working great! The Touchpad is super smooth and (unlike the Ouya Controller Touchpad) realy good to navigate a mouse cursor]
It would be nice if there was a menue where you could assign wich Device takes wich controller-slot. Working without a keypboard is a little annoying to me.
Same for all my keyboards, i think it might be intentional.
Everytime I plug in my keyboard dongle it causes the system to lock up and i have to restart, but if I boot with the keyboard hooked up its player 1. They need to get this fixed
Edit: It seems that removing my hub and pluging straight into the ouya works... but now I've no way to use xbox controllers...
After reading through this thread, I'm beginning to wonder if it has something to do with using keyboards meant for PC. The reason I say this is I have had my Motorola Bluetooth Keyboard made for the Xoom paired since the day i got it and it never took over any controller port, but 1 full power cycle with my Logitech USB keyboard and it took over 1st controller.
Does anyone else have a android BT keyboard they can try?
Xbox wireless dongle as well as a el'cheapo GE USB keyboard do the exact same thing... very very annoying

I think this is tied to USB taking priority over Bluetooth. Every USB HID I plug in ends up becoming player one.

Are you using a powered USB hub? My non powered USB hub does the same thing.
If a powered hub doesn't do it, it might have something to do with the power draw on that single port.

I think its more just because The USB connects on boot, while the bluetooth controllers and keyboards have to be turned on. Since the USB where already there they get the first spot and the rest get whats there when they connect.

Yea I think I need a powered hub. I left one at my moms house I'll probably go pick up today when I remember. (Wow I never thought that hub that came with Rock Band 1 on Xbox would ever be useful again lol)

Tecknet BM306 bluetooth mouse pointer jumpy

I have just got a bluetooth mouse tecknet BM306 and it connects to my tablet OK, however the mouse pointer is jerky and jumpy, impossible to use. The buttons and the mouse wheel work fine.
I have tried the same mouse on my laptop and it works perfectly. It did install some drivers when it first connected. On the tablet however it does not install any drivers so am not sure if I would need some different/better bluetooth drivers for it.
Can anyone hep or shoudl I return it?
You cannot install drivers on an tablet, you are at the mercy of compatibility on Samsung`s wifi/bluetooth tranceiver does your mouse still jump around when the wifi is off, as wifi and bluetooth operate on the same frequency.
I have an Hama M2140 bluetooth mouse and it works great with my T800 with the wifi running at the same time and it is small an relatively cheap.

Turning the wireless off had no effect.
I had another mouse (MEMTEQ) which worked OK until it died. This mouse is the replacement .
I will look to buy another mouse or maybe I can download a more recent bluetooth driver and install it? My tablet is rooted so I could do it if I had the necessary driver and instructions.
You cannot install a driver on an android tablet, you must be having some compatibility problem. Try another brand of mouse.
John
Yep I fully agree with Tinderbox its the mouse or the tablet one of them is not compatible
Thank you guys, I will buy (yet) another mouse. This will be number 3!
Logitech makes good gear.
John.

External USB Keyboard & Mouse for HTC 10?

Hey guys I'm thinking about getting the HTC 10 but want to ask if it has the ability to plug in a USB keyboard and/or mouse (when you plug in the mouse a cursor shows up on the phone) with it like you can on the S7 edge (it comes with a USB dongle). I use this for a unique situation at work where it comes in handy.
thanks
