Hi there... i just buy a ComOne Bluetooth Keyboard.

i tried to connect it to my 770 but i've got problem,
because it is not seen by the 770.

i tryed with the latest maemo-bt-plugin 0.6.0-1...
tryed with connect to first keyboard found or
trued to select keyboard from list in the settings,
but the app doesn't see any keyboard in the range...

i tryed to find it with my phone (SE W800i), and the
phone can detect a device named 'KEYBOARD', and
after typing the password (tryed with 0000), the
device was added to the phone prefs...

so, please, can anybody helps with this ?

here a pic of the keyboard :

it is not the same brand name, but it is the same form factor
and perfect match with the lowest picture, and with the
picture illustrating the flipping outside device support...

thank you for helping.
i think this keayboard will help me with chat, or
mail, or other typing applications...

With another app on my phone,
i try to discover services, it answer :

and wth a third :

Device Name : KEYBOARD

perhaps this helps...

I looked but I can only find this keyboard at french website. I am not sure if this keyboard is HID compliant or will need kbbd. You can install kbbd for non HID compliant keyboards.

The freedom keyboard also needs kbbd

Check this out!!

Good Luck!!!

GRRRRRRRR !

hi penguinbait !

i just followed your link to fanoush...

i tryed the kbdd thing... and it doesn't work actually...

you certainly right about HID compliance, because i finded the FREECOM
bt keyboard (that is the same as mine from COMONE)
and it seem that the freecom keyboard has no HID compliance...


so, i tryed the kbdd thing. because i've find the mac adress from my
keyboard, i set up the btkbd.conf file with the mac adress and with
the keyboard type 'freecom'

after that i tryed to connect to my keyboard...

it seems that the connection initiate, because my 770 give
me a pop up that tells me the connection be active,
then just some millisecond after, another popup that tells me
the connection has been released...

so... i think it work a bit, but not much to have a full connection
with the keyboard... is it a kbdd issue ?

i get this messages in xterm :
Using /kbdd/uinput.ko.2.6.16.27-omap1
/kbdd # BusyBox v1.01 (Debian 3:1.01-4.osso12) multi-call binary

Usage: renice priority pid [pid ...]



i must tell that the popup message appear because i've the bluetooth
plug-in installed. the hildon bar is blue when connection initiate, then
the popup with connection ending appear...


more ideas ?

there is no 'freecom' kbdd keyboard type, try 'freedom' :-)

that's what i've typed in the btkbd.conf file...
i've mismatch type in the forum...

:/

also, the good mac adress is the second one...
so much type mismatch error...

i actually continue testing, but
it connect, and as fast disconnect...
(this is what i can see whan doing the kbdd thing with
the bluetooth plugin installed... i see the bluetooth logo turn blue,
a first popup saying : keyboard connected
and then the second popup, saying disconnected...

I have been using fanoush's kbdd application quite sucessfully with my freedom keyboard (although there are some minor quirks to the installation process). However, I earlier on uninstalled (deleted) the bluetooth plug-in before beginning with kbdd. You may wish to try the same.

i tryed with and then without the bluetooth plugin installed.

is it possible that my ComOne is really different from the Freedom one ?

what are the quirks you meet when doing the kbdd thing ?


thanks for help.

try to reinsert batteries, next run of btkbd should popup dialog for pairing. If not, bt address is incorrect. can you paste here your complete btkbd.conf? from the 'renice' error line it looks like kbdd exits immediatelly so either bluetooth address or port number is incorrect. You can try to run kbdd directly (as root), first bind rfcomm port, then run kbdd
and paste here output

bad (but valid) keyboard type can cause strange output to appear when pressing keys but not kbdd termination

hi there !
some time without news because of too much work...

here's the asked content of my btkbd.conf file :

BDADDR="00:0A:3A:32:92F"
KBTYPE=freedom
PORTNUM=2


now i will do the given commands and come back with the text output
