Hi,

how to use mobile phone keyboard in N810
via bluetooth ?
All you need to do is to write a small java-based application
to send smartphone keyboard inputs via bluetooth to N810 (BT push)
And have N810 to run another smart script
reading bluetooth port and reading keyboard inputs and inserting as N810's virtual keyboard inputs.
Looks quite easy.
Already done ?

BT push (OPP)? Nuh-uh.

Gotta implement HID profile. There's such a project for the N8x0 to play "I am a keyboard" for phones or computers, but I don't know of one for phones.

And I doubt you can implement BT profiles from within javaME.
Alternative (weaker) sol'n is to use SPP, and use the N8x0 hacks available for the various BT keyboards that are SPP rather than HID. Reasonable chance SPP is available, though I'm not real sure.

AVRCP could work too, and I know some phones support that (with no add'l software on the phone). That would require implementation on the N8x0, I think. This would be particularly good if you're after a media control application...

What DO you want this for, anyway? I'd think the N810's keyboard would be better. Unless, of course, you're using a 1980s brick-of-a-phone, with keys that came off an old Kaypro keyboard.

Thanks.

first task
Use a keyboard on one N810 device to control another N810 device
