Does this "phone as keyboard and trackpad" thing work on the sprint hero?
How to use HTC EVO as keyboard and multitouch trackpad for computer
I was thinking about getting a Keysonic 540BT keyboard/trackpad thingy, my question really was - will this work with the official 2.2 touchwiz firmware? Is there mouse/mouse cursor support and how fast or responsive is the input for typing and games (emulators mainly)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFriend of mine told me today that ones of his co-workers have their phone set-up where it is bluetooth connected to his laptop, His laptop is connected to his home television which makes the tv act as his monitor, then he uses his android phone as the wireless keyboard and trackball for the mouse. He wasn't sure what phone exactly he had, or what app he was using.
My questions are. Is this possible with the eris? If so, is there a specific app you need to get? I know that the Eris doesn't do data over bluetooth, so I don't know if this is something that won't work now, but may work with an upgrade to 2.x. This is something that I would be interested in doing.
I have been searching but... Cant find a simple explanation anywhere?

Its an app to disable the slide down to unlock. Well I found out that the trackpad will now wake the phone. Just click the trackpad. No need for the top button. Also the side buttons will wake the phone. So if you keep your phone in your pocket be careful.

Is this correct or should that illuminate as well ? Switching on my phone in the dark I can see all buttons except for the trackpad (not that I use it that much), just want confirmation that this is correct?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to wake the phone by pressing the trackpad button. (like the iPhone's home button, just converted ) I've looked around and can't seem to find a way to set this. I tried the "lockbot" app someone had recommended but it did more then i wanted and still didn't seem to enable that button to wake the phone. Any ideas?

View 6 Replies View RelatedSo, are there a lot of people out there using the optical trackpad? I've had the phone for a while and....I don't think I've ever actually used it except to mess around. Are there some things that it makes easier? Better? Faster?

View 7 Replies View RelatedThe trackpad in my desire is a bit "leggy". I don't know if this is normal but in menus it only moves 1 tile at a time even if I drag all my finger over it. I have seen blackberry trackpads and they are supper smooth Sometimes when editing text I have to move it 3-5 times to get to the right position.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it is possible that instead of using the button on top to take the phone out of sleep if it would be possible to use the track pad ball thing. I'm do.ding that I'm not using this button at all. Am I the only one?

View 12 Replies View RelatedJust can't find anything definitive, I know it can work, since ad has it in his ROMs but I just can't locate anything clear cut. Maybe I'm to drunk but I can't find it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to programmatically deselect/wipe whatever the user has selected with the trackball/trackpad When I hit the back button on an Activity, the Activity it falls back to has a button that is selected as if the user had used the trackball/pad. I'm not sure what is selected on the previous Activity, but obviously something is. I'd like to programmatically wipe any selection just before the Activity finishes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe main reason i wanted a rooted phone was so i could connect to my laptops ad hoc network and use a program for wireless keyboard and mouse. i cant really afford the real thing at the moment and with my laptop hooked up to my flat screen its kind of necessary to have..
So ive rooted my phone and tried a few roms. currently i have this one: [ROM] [05/18/2010] Tainted Vanilla V1.4 OVERCLOCKED - xda-developers
I always run into the same problem though. wired or wireless, i cant get it to connect right. wired never works in any way but i dont really care about that. wireless however shows some signs of working. it shows some data has been sent, not received though. and my computer will detect and connect to it, but seems to lose the signal after a few moments. when i bring up a browser it doesnt even look like something might load. it just says im offline. could someone help me with this?
The other part of this problem is i really just want to connect to my computers ad hoc network and use a wireless keyboard and mouse program. none of them seem that great unfortunately.. recommendations are appreciated. but my biggest issue is that i cant seem to connect to an ad hoc network. i believe my phone detected it only once while i was on the "white widow" rom, but could never quite connect..
Does anyone have problems using the optical trackpad to edit text? If I'm (for example) writing a SMS and then want to navigate back though the text to correct a typo, I find it very difficult to get the cursor to the required position. Sometimes it seems too sensitive and jumps more lines / positions than I want; and sometimes it seems not sensitive enough! Is it just me, or do others have problems using the trackpad?
View 25 Replies View RelatedMoving my thumb over the trackpad just goes from link to link, but it disorients me because I can't predict where it will jump.Is there a way to just make it show a cursor?
View 1 Replies View RelatedCan you use the optical trackpad to move the cursor when writing text? So if you realise you've gone wrong you don't have to place your finger in-between two letters. On my existing very old touch scree phone this is a big issue as i can never get the cursor exactly where i want Another trackpad question - what purpose does it have when browsing, does it highlight links allowing quick navigation without using the pinch and zoom?
Final track pad question- do you use it? The battery- with moderate to heavy use will it ALWAYS last a long day 7-11 for example? Hows the froyo update, is sense still as smooth as ever?
Does anyone know if there is a way to edit previous searches on android phones without the trackpad/d-pad. If you pull up a previous search in the quick search box, you have the option to select it. Once you select it, it will immediately begin searching but it will not give you the option to edit your previous search parameters? Any workarounds?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to use an old deactivated phone as a wireless camera, not over WiFi, but something like AdHoc(I think).
Where my deactivated (old) phone can broadcast a wifi network that my other phone will be able to connect and view the cam's video.
Something like: Old Phone(No internet/service) makes a WiFi AP that Another Phone can connect to and view the video the Old Phone is streaming.
I've found tons of IP cams which use an existing wireless network, but I want the old phone to be used as the wireless router.
I really have no use for it otherwise. I would like to be able to click on it and have camera pop up if possible.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI did a search, but turned up nothing. (I also GOGGLED, but didn't get a proper answer). When someone that I don't know calls my HOUSE from their HOUSE, my caller ID shows the name and number. When someone that I don't know calls my EVO from their HOUSE, I only get a number. I realize that it is probably a SPRINT issue, but does anyone know why Caller ID on our wireless phones does not work like our HOME Caller ID? I realize that if someone is stored in your address book, that their name WILL come up. But was curious why we can't get a name from strangers. Believe it, it would prevent me from picking up a lot of cell calls if I knew who it was.
