Thought it would be helpful to some if I made a video explaining how to connect a bluetooth keyboard to your Android phone.

I can't seem to get the keyboard to pair. ive tried all the pins 0000 1234 1111 with no luck. what did you use?

[mechrocktech]

@Drcorywilson23 I think I used 0000, but a lot of the time it doesn't want to stay paired. Try restarting your phone.

holy shit... look at those bigass paddle thumbs. play video games much? lmfao anyway i love my htc incredible, I tried this app but it didnt work with my dell BT keyboard.. guess I'll have to pick up an apple bt kb like you have.

@infotechsailor You might want to make sure you can return the keyboard if it doesn't work. It's a hit or miss sometimes.

Hi,

Thanks for your video. I tried connecting a flexible Bluetooth keyboard on my HTC Desire HD, running on Android 2.2. Having followed your instructions, everything went well, including the pairing.

However, when I want to start typing it says 'connecting' for a couple of seconds before it goes into the disconnected mode again. Have you any words of wisdom what I should do to make it work? I tried restarting the phone and reinstalling the application already.

Merry Christmas!

Adrian

I seemed to have that same problem soon after making this video. Sucks that it happens. The only thing that fixed it for me was a re-boot.

@velkro16 The Escape button functions as the back button.

Thanks, this video was very useful! I bought the keyboard after watching this video, downloaded the app and it works perfectly. I have one question though, do you by any chance now how to go "back" using the keyboard? I know you can go home using the function key and the left directional key but i am trying to find a way to simply go "back" one action. If you could help with that would be great.

@youmits - I'm on 2.3.3, still no luck.

[birdman72727]

@Drcorywilson23 i had to enter the 0000 pin on my phone, press ok, and then immediately enter 0000 and hit the return key on the bluetooth keyboard.

@pickmanfox Finally the issue has been resolved! : I upgraded from 2.1 (Eclair) to 2.3 (Gingerbread) via Samsung Kies and I finally managed it!
