Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Thank for the great app! :)

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

Yup, thanks for this AWESOME app. mtron's method for getting hidd back into Interprid worked wonders.

I think the keyboard works though, not the menus. Try a normal keyboard and see what it can do, BlueMeaemo should do the same.

Like, I mentioned earlier PS3 supports both KB&M either through BT or USB. probably need someone to tweak this app a little bit more for it to work with a PS3.

*waits* :)

The N800 insists on a passcode to pair. Problem with BlueMaemo is that it won't let you enter a code into the passcode field without a keyboard. So I had to pair my BT keyboard with my BlueMaemo N800 to enter the passcode to pair with my other N800. Then, as long as the BT keyboard is connected to the BlueMaemo N800, the two N800s won't stay paired. So I had to pair them with my BT keyboard, leave BlueMaemo, disconnect my BT keyboard, go back in, and then connect again. Then they stayed connected.

As for the connection, only keyboard works. You can't use the mouse (unless you've got your N8x0 set up to work with a mouse already, I guess). Trying to touch the screen in the "mouse" area seems to only generate occasional "q"s.

So if you want to use one N800 as a BT keyboard for your other N800, it works. But only if you already have an external keyboard (I suspect USB would work too).

:(

The hildon keybaord doesn't show up when you hit the passkey dialog ?
In my n810 it show up if I have the hw keyboard hidden.

You are right.
I will try to add PS3 support in the next releases of BlueMaemo, unfortunately I don't have a PS3, but some guys from the maemo community will help me :D

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

hey VDVsx,
Have you tried running this on one tablet to another.
If useful and simple people who have multiple devices gain an extra keyboard and the knowledge their old device will continue to be useful.

You could even make specific nokia enhancements and features by virtue of its platform similarity.

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

I've just had a good go with it and the PS3. I always have a USB keyboard plugged up to it, so I know what to expect. Anyway, the PS3 will scan and find the bluetooth name of your N800, then give you a code for pairing. The hildon bluetooth module will pop up to put in the code, and add it to your normal paired devices list. A little icon pops up on the PS3 to show it's connected to the N800, but non of the different buttons on BlueMaemo work. I put it on a text field that would normally type away fine, nothing at all with BlueMaemo.

On another note, I love the iPhone-esque keyboard. Is there any way to use that as a regular on screen keyboard instead of the boring normal one?

Re: Introducing BlueMaemo

I agree that someone should package up the Edje demo keyboard (which BlueMaemo uses) as a replacement for the Hildon-Input-Method keyboard.
