Re: Act as HIDD and more
hcitool scan to "discover" the keyboard and get its BT address; then hidd --connect BTADDR SettingsGUI has a bluetooth panel btw, this can also be used and might be easier to extend for other BT devices. Works great for me pairing an apple wireless-bt keyboard, btw, and its a rockin' combo of devices to boot. ; -- Jay Vaughan ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Yes I know how to use a HID just need to know how to set the Neo into HID mode(e.g act as a Input Device) >>> kenneth marken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/18/08 1:17 PM >>> On Monday 18 February 2008 18:54:17 Shawn Rutledge wrote: > On Feb 18, 2008 10:31 AM, Christopher Earl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I want my Neo to act as HIDD, I *think* the command is hidd --server > > but i get an error: Address in use, any ideas. > > I haven't tried it on the phone yet, but last night I bought the Apple > BT keyboard and got it working for my MythTV box. > > hcitool scan > > to "discover" the keyboard and get its BT address; then > > hidd --connect BTADDR > > at which point pairing begins.

I haven't tried it on the phone yet, but last night I bought the Apple BT keyboard and got it working for my MythTV box. hcitool scan to "discover" the keyboard and get its BT address; then hidd --connect BTADDR at which point pairing begins. You make up a PIN, type it on the keyboard (e.g. ) then you should see the BT PIN prompt pop up on your computer (or phone) and you type the same PIN there. It's a little clumsy, I wish BlueZ would auto-pair in the case that the PIN is . At least it's only necessary once.

You are using that to charge the phone? Sounds useful. Like this? http://www.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=1751517 I'd like to find a "smart" charger for the car eventually.

Act as HIDD and more
I want my Neo to act as HIDD, I *think* the command is hidd --server but i get an error: Address in use, any ideas. Also I have been testing Playstation 3 hardware, I bought the $10 Recharging dock for the controllers, works with GTA01 Charges well(its just a mini-USB dock) but hides the power button. As stated before the PS3 wireless KB works great, even the mouse pad, next to test is the controller, I dont actually have a PS3 so it may take a while, hoping to use the PS3 controller with a port of Gfceu (nes emulator). If this passes the test, i will locate a PS3 and try to use my device as a new controller. This is why I need Hidd-server mode for the Neo. ___ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
