HP K4000 (Bluetooth wireless keyboard) - Xperia Z4 Tablet Accessories

It is connected via bluetooth without any dongle and also have android function keys. It is a good alternative for Sony BKB50 plus it is cheaper than it. If you guyz wanna use any external keyboard for your tab go for itttt.....

[Q] Tablet Mouse for Android™ 3.1+

I use a Logitech M505 nano mouse with with the TF101, works fine for me but with the nano receiver plugged in the port cover is in danger of being damaged.
So looking at the possibility of using the little used Bluetooth, I came a cross the Logitech Tablet Mouse for Android™ 3.1+
Unfortunately it is not available here in the UK and Logitech will not ship to the UK.
The code on the support page is M-RCQ142 and tried a search on the UK Logitech site and it came up with a "470 Cordless Laser Mouse for Bluetooth".
My question, is this the same mouse and would it work with the TF?
The Price is £34.99
I have a 470 and it works great with the tf. I suspect that the "tablet mouse" is just a rebranded 470 since they look exactly the same and there shouldn't be any functional difference between them.
tl;dr: yes, go for it.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Ordered a 470 direct from Logitech UK, got a 20% discount for trading in an old mouse.
One more question, are there any settings required on the TF?
You'll just need to pair it in the bluetooth settings, like you would a headset or any other BT accessory. Besides that, its pretty much plug and play. Even the scroll wheel works in all four directions.

Uses for keyboard dock other than typing

Just curious as to what other people use their keyboard dock for other than typing. Like, can it be used with any games such as first person shooters in combination with a usb mouse? Ive gotten some emulators to work. Also, i have a modified original xbox controller that i spliced a usb cable on the end of the cord. It works great on my pc as a controller. Anyone know what games might be compatible with that besides emulators?

It works really well for playing SNES games on the SuperGNES emulator (Play Store).
I'm not sure about your modified Xbox controller, but I have an original wired Xbox controller that works immediately when I plug it into the dock. Of course, some games weren't made to support the controller, but the ones that do work very well.

I didnt buy the the dock because I wanted a tablet not a notebook! The only good things about the dock is that you get extra battery life and a USB and a sd card slot! For me I bought the USB adapter and a hard case that came with a bluetooth keyboard, tablet stand for $50 plus a 6ft hdmi and a bluetooth mouse total cost for all was $80. And I also already had a xbox wired controller that hooks up to the usb adapter that i bought works without a hitch.

If you just wanted a tablet and not a notebook, why did you bother to get a case with a bluetooth keyboard?
Just because you have a keyboard dock, doesn't mean that you can't use the device as a tablet (that "reason" makes no sense, especially when you buy a bluetooth keyboard/case to use with the tablet!). It literally takes 2 seconds to un-dock it and use it as a "normal" tablet (much quicker than than getting a bluetooth keyboard connected).
Plus, it also acts as a case, a stand, an SD card reader, a USB hub, a trackpad and an extra battery! The keyboard dock is single best accessory that I've purchased for *any* device! It's a bargain @ $150, in my opinion.
Personally, if I wasn't interested in the keyboard dock, I probably would have purchased a different tablet alltogether... After all, that is one of the primary features of the Transformer series (and why they are named as such)!

I bought the case for travel and the keyboard and stand were part of it! It just sweetened the deal when I bought the case! And IMO the dock is no way worth $150 smackers and if you drop it on concrete you just dont ruin the tablet you probably screwed up the dock as well. And the bluetooth mouse can be used anywhere not just on the tab! And being tech savvy like yourself there really should be any reason for you to need a SD reader you probably have a few of those laying around. I know I do. And with the bluetooth keyboard ya just flip the power on and it connects its a little thing bout the size of the docks keyboard bout a 1/8 inch thick. Maybe if the dock wasnt so expensive I might of bought 1 but seeing how the case came with bluetooth enabled keyboard that can be used with other gadgets and not just for the tab seemed the smarter way for me! And by the way what other tablet would you have bought?
I purchased the dock, and the transformer because I wanted to be able to use the single item that I carry with me, for everything.
The TF700, which started out with the TF201 for me, is an amazing tablet in it's own right. Plenty of power, a crystal clear screen, and no excess crap thrown into it as a skin.
The dock, which is the same one from my TF201, is the best accessory in the world. It gives me extra battery life, which means that since the day I've purchased it, I haven't ever had to charge it mid-day. The extra SD card slot lets me put another 128gb of storage onto it, which using the keyboard dock as a stand, is perfect for watching movies, and the Pinky & The Brain episodes that I've put on it. If I ever need to take notes, work on a project, or use splashtop to remote into my computer, I have the full function of a keyboard, without anything missing.
I didn't purchase this in place of a netbook, instead I purchased it as a compliment to my laptop. But I've found that since I had the Transformer, I haven't used my laptop at all on the road. So I've given up, started carrying a smaller bag, and am perfectly content with my TF700 and dock.
I started my tablet career out with the Motorola Xoom. A tablet which I loved dearly. I purchased many accessories for it, but none compared to the functionality of the Transformer series dock. I haven't bothered to root my TF700, and with Volume+ working on it perfectly fine, I don't need any extra speakers to go with it at all.
Oh, and the full USB port? Yeah, that works perfectly with my external hard drive. I wasn't sure it would have enough juice to power it, but it works so amazingly! I'm still waiting on my friend for a PS3 controller to go with it all.

May not have been worth $150, but it was worth every penny of the $99
If you travel thd Dock is totally worth it. The battery on flights is a lifesaver. And you could get a bunch of accessories (external battery, USB adapter, BT mouse, etc etc etc. But then you have a bunch of things to keep track of and lose (I guess you COULD be responsible though )

Bluetooth slim keyboard

Anyone recommend a slim bluetooth keyboard with track pad for tab s 8.4?
I am not looking for the keyboard cover. Its bulky and I want a separate slim keyboard
Sent from my SM-T705 using XDA Free mobile app
Well, I currently have the Logitech Trackman Wireless trackball mouse connected to the Tab S 10.5. The logitech wirless dongle is connected to an OMG usb cable to the Tab S and it reports as both a Keyboard and Mouse. II do not have a Logitech keyboard that uses Logitech's universal wireless USB apapter dongle, but I'm sure it would work too if I had one. I am very supprised at how well the Logitech wireless trackball mouse works when navigation through Android. The scroll wheel even works! I also connected an old HP Bluetooth keyboard to the Tab S which is what I'm typing this response up with right now. It is funny that the Samsung keyboard/case for the Tab S doesn't include a touchpad, and neither does the Logitech keyboard/case for the Tab S. So, I'm going to wait for the perfect Case/Keyboard with a Touchpad combination since using the wireless mouse (Logitech trackball in my case) is really great!
Have the samsung smart keyboard with track pad which works great for typing and mouse. There aren't any other features like volume control or play, stop, etc. But it works great for what I use it for and since I bought the smart case I didn't want to spent the money on the Samsung keyboard.

Oh yea the samsung smart keyboard is Bluetooth so works great.
I am using an apple wireless keyboard. Anything smaller doesn't make sense, as it won't improve over the onscreen keyboard.
I have a rapoo e6700 which works great, qwertz layout though. Blue back matches blue cover nicely too

Using external keyboard for fire HD 10 tablet

I am thinking of adding a keyboard for my fire HD 10 tablet 2017.
I am thinking of two options.
1. Bluetooth keyboard
https://www.amazon.com/Arteck-HB030...pID=51K3rbjy8rL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
2. using my Logitech K400 keyboard. It has a unifying reciever. I am thinking of buying a OTG adapter reader.
https://www.amazon.com/Inateck-Adap...qid=1519484873&sr=1-18&keywords=micro+usb+hub
I am thinking I can connect the unifying reciever to it, and that way I can use my keyboard, (which has an included trackapad) on the fire tablet.
My question is :
1. Will the unifying receiver K400 combo work?
2. Will the trackpad works (does it show an arrow?)
3. Should i just get the Bluetooth keyboard instead, and how the Bluetooth connectivity?, (no dongle , no mouse
4. Any Bluetooth keyboard anyone would like to recommend??
Thank you.
I got this for my dad's 10": https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GIZHR2A/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My review and pictures are under the review titled "Great value". I haven't had any issues with it (neither has my dad) and the keyboard feels pretty close to a full size layout.
I've been able to use a Bluetooth keyboard with a built-in trackpad with my HD 8 on 5.6.0.1.
I've also been able to use a separate USB mouse and keyboard simultaneously with an OTG cable and a USB hub. If the receiver works on another device (e.g. laptop), then it should work with an OTG cable.
If you carry around your tablet different places a lot, just go all Bluetooth if you can.
I'd suggest going Bluetooth as well. You can get cases with keyboards built in that connect via micro usb really cheaply, but they are more aggravation then they are worth. I bought one for my mom's 8" HD and I could instantly tell that bluetooth was the better option. I wound up buying a Logitech Type-V case for an Ellipsis 8 (because it was only $8 at Walmart), made some adjustments and so far so good.
I bought a Bluetooth XTREME keyboard at a National Wholesale Liquidators store in the NYC area a few weeks ago. They were about to be sold out. It was selling for $12, with no refunds. Took a chance on it, and it works perfectly with my 2017 fire hd 10. My tablet is attached to the FINTIE case.

Nice! Glad that worked out for you. I'm an Long Islander- there's a National Wholesale Liquidators a few towns away. I'll have to drop in when I get a chance
Bluetooth keyboard.
I bought (in Lidls) a SilverCrest keyboard for £15 which works very well.
I don't think that the USB dongle would work, mainly because Android is using a VERY similar kernel to Linux (almost identical) which is why we have SuperUser hacks.
Linux requires the use of drivers to do really anything, but Android isn't Linux and doesn't have any native driver support.
Best bet is to use a Bluetooth keyboard, and don't worry there is literally no latency. It works amazing.

It also works on my mom's HD8, apparently. That being said, the keyboard and USB dongle were already paired on my PC

I recently got a new Logitech 9-10" Tablet Keyboard Case Universal Folio since I got another Fire HD 10 on Prime day. It's not worth the retail price or the $32 Amazon is asking for it since it doesn't fit the tablet perfectly- the grips will apply pressure to the volume or power switch. I put a few pieces of foam on the grips to prevent that from happening and it works well enough. I got it new for $18 from a seller on Ebay. They have 9 more if anyone is interested: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Logitech-9...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
I actually had a Logitech Ultra thin Bluetooth Keyboard that was for the iPad 2 packed away and it actually works very well with my Fire HD 10 (2017). I use it with Office and WordPress.
anything like this?
Is anything like this type https://www.brydge.com/products/brydge-10-5-ipad-pro-keyboard available for the hd 10?

Not that I know of. I wouldn't be surprised if a generic equivalent was around for Android tablets but you will have to make sure of the dimensions.
I have the Logitech K400 and have the Unifying Receiver plugged into a OTG USB cable. My Fire 10 will not open the onboard keyboard with it plugged in, but neither will it record keystrokes from the K400. Not sure what the problem is.

Mini wireless keyboard?

Can anyone recommend a good mini wireless keyboard for the note9? I travel a lot and would love to bring a tiny portable keyboard with me when I hook up my phone to a hotel room TV with dex and a BT mouse.
A thumb keyboard would be perfect.

Not cheap but tiny.. The space in the middle takes a little getting used to but it's fine for casual use when traveling.
I ordered this one, seems ok.
