I can't get a diffinitive answer. can we pair a bluetooth keyboard with the mogul? thanks, zacharyjeans
Yes, I use Igo stowaway foldup keyboard.
Alan
I use a Dell Executive Keyboard - I believe it is the same as the Think Outside keyboard, except in black. Works fine.
If you want the StowAway, get them while they last since iGo is not making them anymore. I have one and it works great, so I'm disappointed to see that they are stopping production.
My husband has a Mogul with Windows 6.1. His keyboard is a Freedom Universal Keyboard. It doesn't work after the upgrade. Do you know where can I find drivers for the Mogul 6.1? Or at least a keyboard that works with the new rom? Thanks
I have the IGO one as well as the bluetooth mouse and they both work well. The reason Igo isn't making the bluetooth keyboards anymore is because the company did not want to keep up with the driver demands for a new ROM or device (according to Smartphone and Pocket PC).

Hi guys,
I have a touch diamond (with Telstra rom) I need to find a way to downgrade my bluetooth drivers on my device. I can hear you all asking is this guy deranged, why would anyone want to do that. Well heres the reason, I have an igo bluetooth keyboard possibly one of the greatest gadgets that has made my life a tone easier when using email. But the drivers that it has dont seem to work with my device as it does not recognise that i have bluetooth at all. This keyboard has worked with my touch dual (20key 850mhz) but not with the diamond. Is there a fix for this.
Thanks
Rather than downgrading your Diamond's bluetooth drivers, have you tried upgrading the bluetooth keyboard drivers instead to the latest available version ?
I have an original Stowaway bluetooth keyboard. I downloaded the WM5 drivers from:
http://corporate.igo.com/support/do... Support/PPC5/En/dr/Think Outside ppc5 En.zip
and the keyboard works perfectly on the Diamond even though it is running WM6.1
Good luck
Thank you that worked great!!!
Is there anyway I can use my PC bluetooth Keyboard on diamond?
I bought a diamond for this specific purpose. Thought it would work out of the box because of the HID profile, but I had to plunk down 15 euros to buy BlueInput from teksoftco: http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=bluemouse
I had some issues on my stock JPN rom where I could only press one key at a time, but now that I'm running Dutty's everything works fine. Ultraportable word processing with a full-size mechanical Filco keyboard!
Any confirmed working BT keyboards?
My trusty Think Outside BT keyboard that has sync'ed with every phone I've had in the last 4-5 years doesn't work. Gutted.
I need a keyboard for this thing!
Any help links advice appreciated.
Thanks,

That's strange, because my iGo (Think Outside) bluetooth keyboard works fine. Didn't even need to install the Think Outside software or drivers - just put the keyboard in discover mode, phone picked it right up, assigned the HID profile, and voila - works grand!
Well waddya know! Don't have any of the shortcut functionality or command and function options but its working as a basic keyboard. Thanks robertlewisca! Never thought of that!
Quite expensive and big solution, the Logitech DiNoVo Mini.
I've bought it for my computer but it also works on the HD2

How did you pair it...?
Does Logitec diNovo Mini works on HD2? I checked the official website of Logitec and don't see it would work on Windows Mobile. Kindly tell me and confirm if it works on HD2 and teach me how to pair. Thanks!
Apple wireless (bluetooth) keyboard works on HD2

To let you know, just used apple's wireless keyboard and it works perfectly !
I was able to outperform the Cootek Touchpal (software)-keyboard , which usually works pretty fast if you know how it works!
hope this helps! perhaps you could try it yourself in the apple stores XD
WORKING EXTERNAL KEYBOARDS ON HD2:
+ Apple Wireless Keyboard
+ Logitech DiNoVo Mini (confirmed by Zero Masamune )
Apple
Apple wireless BT keyboards (newer types) do not work! It pairs OK, everything looks OK, connected and all but - no typing. Unfortunately. I do have a Stowaway foldable, works perfect, although shortcuts do not function (none). Fortunately all others keys do, as with my last HD keys were mixed up sometimes (UK/US/NL problems)
So which BT keybard would you recommend for HD2?
And does the embeded touchpad/trackpoint work with HD2 as well?

I also got the Logitech DiNoVo Mini connected with my HD2. However, the mouse pad function not working on HD2. Only can use the mouse pad for up, down, left and right movement.
Are there any others? Im thinking of getting a BT keyboard
My ThinkOutside BT folding slimline works a charm... Some of the keys take a while to 'warm up' before they'll work 100% but I've been using this thing since I got my Tungsten T3 so it's kinda understandable.
Anyone get bluethooth mouse connected on HD2? Or I need to install third party software before HD2 can connected with bluetooth mouse?
hi,
looks like the hd2 dosent like bt mice, my advantage do work well with 2 of them, the hd2 wont. keyboards i tested til now are the freedom universal 2 and the think outside stowaway. both working well for basic keys, but support only english 'qwerty' keyboard layout and no spezial language chars like german 'ÄÖÜß'.

By that do you mean. "p, backspace, enter, delete" don't work for a while??
I noticed this on my Stowaway and I thought it was faulty hardware and I was gutted. First time I paired with 1.43 it worked like a charm for about a week, then those keys stopped working.. it may have had something to do with flashing to 1.48, but after some repeated hammering and opening and closing of the keyboard they start working, sluggishly and then they are okay.
I thought it was a problem with my (admittedly ancient) Think Outside Stowaway BT keyboard.
Nice to know its not that!!
I read on another thread that a company were working on drivers to make full use of the winmo shortcut keys again..
Here are the links to that topic:

Confirmed working with Freedom Universal Keyboard, old one I picked up off ebay for my Kaiser. And even better, no playing around with drivers and codes. Paired straight up!

X7500 Advantage has MS BT Stack, HD2 (like TP2) has Widcomm BT stack that don't recognize BT mouse as BT "Profile".....so.....
we hope for a developer's release of a MicroSoft Bluetooth Stack for our device.

Same problem!!! Blueinput from teksoftco need MS Bluetooth Stack......we have widcomm...bleah!
why is it not made a keyboard that you can attach to your mobile phone through the usb port? it would have been fine with a keyboard of the same quality as what was on the qtek 9000 or is it allready made?
I'm using a HP iPAQ branded BT foldable keyboard and it works perfectly. I guess it is really a Stowaway Keyboard but I'm not 100% sure.
It folds out to an almost full size keyboard and has a nice retractable stand in the rear of the left half (the rear of the right half is occupied by a compartment for two rechargeable AAA-batteries).
BlueInput for Broadcom is closing in
We're happy to announce that Teksoft is just a few weeks away from the release of Blueinput for devices that use the Broadcom Bluetooth stack, including the HTC HD2, HTC Touch Pro 2, Asus, and others.
BlueInput is an advanced HID driver that totally transforms your Pocket PC or Smartphone into the perfect Mobile office solution by offering easy Bluetooth connectivity to Bluetooth Mouses or Keyboards.

fantanstic news !
I wanna use it with mouse and keyboard as mobile computer ~
Great News... Can a working version (alpha/beta/demo) be released before next Friday morning?
I leave next Friday evening for a 5 day camp where no laptops are allowed... ordered a BT Keyboard.. and have several BT Mice... would really like to use a BT Mouse on the HD2 as well...
indeed, would be great to have it asap. the news said something about "weeks away". probably it's in testing phase.
about time! hate having paid for the software and not having it working.
hopefully it supports different language/keyboardlayout. thats (beside mouse support) my only problem atm. with bluetooth on the hd2.
anyhow great news mad.
Here's a demo video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLRXSBcu6WI&feature=player_embedded
showing a bluetooth mogo mouse working with an asus device, that has the Broadcom Stack (like the HD2 does).
looks impressive...
waiting for news
DN41
Still holding my breath too. Teksoftco's web site has everything in place except the download. Sure wish they would put up an expiring demo so we can at least have something.
Teksoft sleeping - confirmation
Ridiculous: Teksoft Broadcomm page is defunct for almost two weeks now. Are they sleeping or what? Does anyone know any details? Where are the beta testers???
Wonder if this will get around the issues with Wiimotes and Playstation Sixaxis remotes...would love to use one of those in FPSECE instead of the bgp100
Nice video showing the possibilities of blueinput. But the HD2 already has integrated bluetooth reception. I have a microsft 6000 series bluetooth keyboard, which is easily recognised by the current bluetooth software on my HD2. The current issue of the bluetooth keyboard is that not all keys are functional in the windows mobile 6.5 software. What is needed, therfore, is software that can reprogram the bluetooth keyboard keys, for more functional use. That will be a milestone for the Hd2. Has anyone heard of this software yet?
So you are saying your M$ 6000 BT mouse pairs properly and works? I have a M$ 5000 and the HD2 sees it but cannot pair with it. It works fine on a laptop.

No, he wrote "keyboard", not "mouse". No comment on your reading skills.
To be serious: back to my post on page #1: what about the blueinput software? Where are the beta testers???
Ok, Teksoftco, this thread was started by you on Feb. 5, today is June 24. 5 months seems a bit extreme for a beta test.
Hi,
totally agree with you, 5 month to issue a software is a bit long. Perhaps waiting for people to buy other/recent keyboards ;-)
Anyway, my BK600 would work with my hd2 with that software. Too bad they haven't delivered yet. What do they need developpers ? (i'm one of them , so if they need help... lol )
Anyway in the same vein, i would really like to ask for sources of freedom / Com1 / omiz BK600 to fix the to issue a driver for my hd2 ...
Kind regards,
and still waiting some driver to make my bk600 work on my htc hdé !!!
Ludovic
Don't hold your breath - the software is defunct - not working - major issues.
see my thread : developping bluetooth gateway for bk600
enough to wait for will-be-released drivers, or drivers which are not for my phone.
I'll try to make on myself. If i succedd, it won't cost $15 ^_^

BlueInput: BT Keyboard not found
I've downloaded the last/new vesion of BlueInput 1.0.101. But still it can't detect my BT keyboard (HP iPAQ foldable). It detects though my BT mouse - Logitech MX1000 and it works fine, but no any signs by the keybord.
My other BT software on my HD2 detects the keyboard and i've managed to make it work, but its inconvenient to use one program for keyboard and another for mouse.
Has anyone experienced similar problems with iPAQ BT keyboard? It cannot be detected by BlueInput software. These guys need to do some more work before i buy this software.
Bought a cheapo chinese bluetooth mouse a while back for this purpose & have been waiting AGES for Teksoft to get this software running (I guess android has been the priority for them lately).
Works OK on my HD2 3.14 official wwe ROM, although probs encountered whilst on the home screen (weather animation on) or viewing videos. Also doesn't always track screen rotation (Youtube app for one, although does using IE).
Hello, iam searching for a bluetooth keyboard for my HD2. Its exhausting to write mails and sms everyday on that beatiful but hard to type touchscreen :/ So i thought about buying a bluetooth keyboard. But after some searching i only found a few small keyboards from 2005 and 2006 I hoped you guys could help me with that. I want a small keyboard, size like a creditcard if possible, should be easy to carry arround
Greetings, Deadwalk
You should have a look at the Logitech diNovo Mini if you want something good. It's expensive but worth it, I got some $25 chinese BT keyboard and it's even worse to type on it than on the HD2 itself.
Remember that until Teksoft release their Blueinput driver for the HD2 and other Broadcom BT stack phones you will be stuck to standard keys, special keys will not work or type different characters than what's written on them.
stowaway bluetooth keyboard works for standard buttons. If you install the driver and have it run in the background while depending on the HD2's broadcomm BT driver to do the pairing, you gain the the ability to use home/end/pgup/pgdn, but not much else.
You can, however, use AE Button Plus to manually map your functional buttons
