I have gotten my A7 to work with GrandTec.com's Virtually Indestructible keyboard. The keyboard is light and compact. Also ran the keyboard through a Dynex 4 port USB hub. So far works nicely.

Clean keyboard terminals
hey, you can easily pull out the keyboard of kaiser.. no need to dismantle the unit... just use any precission flat screw.. kaiser keyboard is glued.. be sure you pull up the main pad of the keyboard not a key.. start on the lower part of the keyboard... when your done, clean the contact terminals using a cotton buds with alcohol... clean only the contact terminals.. do not clean the outer part of the terminals so you could maintain the stikiness.. plug again the keyboard and your done!
I always do this on my tilt coz i have exessive swetness in my hands that causes my titl keyboard not to function well..
I recently bought a new screen, and after installing it my keyboard has ceased to work. All other buttons work but the keyboard is completely non-functional. Does anyone know what i did to disconnect my keyboard?
I got the Smart Dock, but it puts stuff in portrait mode on monitor. I have Ultimate Rotation Control app. But what I want to do is have the device itself on its side. So I can use the touch screen on the Note 2 when I want to. Hard doing that when looking at the device's context (on the Note 2 screen) on its side. I will use both USB mouse and keyboard. But still want to use touch screen from time to time. My Monitor is 1080p, but not touch screen.
I am looking into USB Micro-B Male/Female Extension/adapter (5 pin). I would what is the best cable out there to use. Is the Micro USB on the Smart Dock 5 pin or the MHL 11 pin? if 11 pin should I try to find a MHL Male/Female Extension/adapter? Does should a thing exist? If the micro USB on the Smart Dock is 5 pin, is there a Samsung special micro UBS pin layout? If so then how to get around the pin layout issue?
Basically I want to put the extension into the Smart Dock, put my Note 2 sideways (to work with touch screen on Note 2, w/o creating side neck issues), and plugin the other end of the extension to the Note 2.
Side note: what keyboard and mouse did you use with Smart Dock?

Hi JaguarXT,
I know this post was about a month ago, but I thought I would check in to see if you were able to get this issue resolved. Like you, I am interested in a similar setup as you. I have the smart dock and the galaxy note 2, but I have mine in a Otterbox defender case, and for obvious reasons I have to take my n2 out of the case in order for it to work with the dock. Just wondering if you found some cables/adapters that worked in your setup.
Thanks in advance,
Statustray
Bump,
Do you think this would be what you where looking for?

Yep, definitely what you want.
From the backorder set to September,
Looks like you aren't the only one.

It's 11 pin connector they used. The thing sends 2 way mhl, 2 way otg, 2 channels audio and has ground, sense and power pins too. So no way to have only 5 pins as you can see.
hi I have rooted my note 8 and have a custom kernel to allow me to use dex with a third party dock. everything seems to work fine I have a usb keyboard plugged in that has no problems what so ever, but the mouse on the other hand is not working.
The actual problem I have is when I plug a usb mouse in the on-screen touchpad turns off, but the mouse cursor disappears from screen and there seems to be no response from any movement or button presses.
i have looked through the settings and can't see anything that would affect it in such a way, I have tried 2 different mice and every usb port.
unfortunately I don't have another rooted device or genuine dex dock to see if either of them makes a difference.
I'd appreciate any suggestions or advice on what to try next.
The surface pen or a N-Trig compatible pen is a must. It turns the Moto Z4 into a Moto Z4 Note. It allows pressure sensitivity in apps that support it and also more precise navigation. I've downloaded several ink-centric apps and I like that it is another special screen like the shattershield which is only found on a Motorola phone.
I can confirm, this works.
I thought I was the only one who noticed this! I almost shi+ myself in excitement when my Surface Go pen worked on my phone.
I bought a cheap Stylus supporting MS Surface Pen protocol and I can confirm, too, that it works.
