[HD2 Accessories] Sammy88:
Thanks tids, very interesting, now i don't know if i should read a review about it

less attractive than the grey one.
[HD2 Accessories] shelay:
i actually own one. it pairs easily with the HD2 (leo) and works well withe the touch pro 2 as well. the only issue i have with it is the tiny keypads! asides that, its just as good as any other keyboard! oh, and it connects via Bluetooth.
[HD2 Accessories] Tokolosh:
i prefer the Logitech DiNovo Mini bluetooth keyboard, i use it for my phone, ps3 and sometime also on my pc ;)

a bit expensive but good quality and works fine
[HD2 Accessories] tids2k:
not bad. but considering the looks hd2 has, this one stands nowhere near ;)

If you do a search on eBay for "mini bluetooth keyboard", you will find a few different UK sellers offering these keyboards. I have ordered one at £34.99 including delivery! I'll report back when I get it, and let you guys know how well it works!
[HD2 Accessories] nsx_23:
Well, the other one is $50AUD shipped....

I have a microsoft 6000 bluetooth keyboard and number pad. Works great but having a hard time figuring out which function key combinations work. Also the F-keys on the top row do not work either. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is software out there that enables me to reprogram the keys for windows mobile 6.5 on my HD2. Anyone?

[HD2 Accessories] madindehead:
Has anyone tested any of these and checked that they really do work with the HD2?
[HD2 Accessories] namwollem:
Yep!

I have purchased this one from eBay, and can confirm it DOES work! Although I found that I had to ignore the instructions that came with it, as they don't work!! I just paired the device as normal, and it worked!
[HD2 Accessories] danjohnson19855:
would it work with a ps3?

I ordered 2 from the chinavasion site as they are back in stock (£15+). They have been despatched. When I get them I'll let you know how they paired and worked.

If you can somehow mount the keyboard on one side of this case it would be pretty cool.

Good news all round

I just got my bluetooth keyboards delivered. It was working within a minute of me opening the box. I never even read the manual yet as I'm getting old and my eyesight for such small text is bad. Even during the time to sync my HD2 with the pc so I could drag over the Windows mobile CAB file (driver). I paired and was typing test text in 'Note' without installing anything. A suitable driver foer a BT keyboard (HID) must already be in the HD2. Just tried it in SMS. I'm happy with it, just got to get used to and remember where all the alternate function keys are like £!"$%^&*()<>@~ etc etc. By the way it has an internal battery charged with the supplied USB cable. Also as a bonus the supplied USB cable has the same micro USB that can power the HD2 too. :)
[HD2 Accessories] Deadwalk:
i got mine today. I've ordered it 4 days ago from Chinavasion (anyone posted the link a few sides before) and today it arrived here in germany. Never got anything from China that fast before :D Cant say anything about funcionality, its on the power cable right now. just wanted to tell you guys that if u want to order it, you should try Chinavasion :D

greetings from germany
[HD2 Accessories] Hoodeddeathman:
Got mine today.

The keyboard does feel quite cheap and some of the keyprint isn't the best I've seen. It does do the job well and I am satisfied. Having trouble with blueinput at the moment as it just runs with critical error, therefore I cannot get the function key to actually work meaning I am missing out on all they keys you have to fn to get to such as colon, so smilies are out of the question at the moment.

Overall not too bad but good keyboard if I ever get fn working.
[HD2 Accessories] lwlee:
Mine came 15mins ago. USD$24.99.

Pairing it to the HD2 was a breeze, sent a couple of emails and sms.

Good finishing and works as any keyboard should. Keys are responsive and as you type clicks could be heard on the HD2 as confirmation.

[HD2 Accessories] namwollem:
Interesting one....

The keyboard I bought (see earlier post by me!) works perfectly with my HD2, and also with my MSI Netbook, but it refuses to work with my old Trinity (SPV M 700) - no ideas why though. Bit annoying as the keyboard on the HD2s screen is perfectly good, and the one on the Trinity is pi$$-poor in my opinion, and that was the PDA I was hoping to use it the most with! D'oh!

TekSoft BlueInput? #fail

OK, I have my own Mini Bluetooth Keyboard, also form Chinavasion. ;) Works fine with common HID profile, but BlueInput gets error (fresh installation or reinstall - still a problem). As I've seen elsewhere, the same problem is on Android devices with their driver. Is this CD with software peace of joke only? Or is there anybody with working BlueInput driver? ;)

(Homepage of driver creator is not an useful source of actual info – use "teksoft blueinput driver" in Google for try.)

That keyboard is ugly!

Sorry bro... it just is :p although the keyboard from the 2nd post looks pretty good. I'd definitely buy that if I couldn't manage with Swype.

Have you guys really given Swype a good run? Trust me I was die hard keyboard junkie like you guys. Not anymore.

Give it a real try, no half ass attempts. Trust me, you'll be typing faster with Swype than any hardware keyboard that was created by mating 2 colors of really cheap plastic together.

Better Solution

Why not buy this:

With this:

Roll up Keyboard

http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-2-0-Silicon...Keyboard-/260499355539?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs

For 10 $ total you will have a full size Keyboard and be able to roll it up for the occasional use if you should write a long email. Much better compared to pocket size keyboards that break easily and are still small ... and uncomfy.

It pairs perfectly, keys function too, except the FN-function, which is a shame, because with FN you use the delete-function and the backlight function. This works on PC though, I guess there should be developed a specific HD2 driver.

[HD2 Accessories] hiroshinobi:
Ok, i'm so glad that these keyboard are coming to the market.. looked for these kinds for some time... Which is why i got the htc touch pro 2 as the keyboard was great.. But i traded that for the hd2 and really miss the keyboard. (hd2 typing is unbearable for me at the moment). So here is my questions.

1. So there is the rubber and plastic feel/look to these keyboards.. From first impression i prefer the rubber look as the plastic has a wet cheap look... So where do i get the rubber one?

2. If the plastic isn't as wet as it looks like because of the flash etc... which one (rubber/plastic) seem to be closer to the htc touch pro keyboards?

3. Also how can we get the hinges as the youtube did so i can have it as one set?

Im thinking the guy did some drilling etc.. but im sure there are some sticky stuff that can do the same.
[HD2 Accessories] haccker:
All these keyboards allow only basic input for HTC HD2: only alfanumeric chars.

Do not expect for F1-F10 function keys,num lock, prtscrn, alt and so on.

These are not supported by WM 6.5.

Also there are no windows mobile support for HD2 for different langueage keymaps.

For HTC HD2 you need AEKmap software for multilanguage keyboard layouts and teksofts blueinput for widcomm software for F1-F10 and some additional functional keys support. AEKmap and teksofts blueinput both need additional tuning with keytables and scancodes.

Aslo blueinput internally does require pairing with keyboard every lauch, however at windows mobile level keyboard is actually paired only once and is automatically available for input since boot.

Even with teksofts blueinput not every ssh or emulation program supports hardware F1-F10 keys.

Also I'd recommend BT keyboards with Broadcom 2042 Chipset. They are excellent in hardware and fully supported by usual PC without any additional non-standard hardware. Compatibility issue refers only to general lack of mobile sofware support for external hardware.

i'd like to see a much more quality project!

hay im new hear just got my hd2 a week ago and bricked itanyway i sent it off for repair!the main reason i got the hd2 was becuause i coule run a newer windows phone 7 rom on it that was just relesed probly be4 this form was started anyway i lookedat all the keybords you guys posted and as much as id like tohave one on my phone all thease products look like crap to me!

id for one like to see a keybord with a case that just snaps on and slides out useing the power mini sub port!

2.id like to see one that flips and clicks on to the back so i could just hold it the way it was menty to be

3.id like to see a keybord that lights up like the microsoft chat pad!with the relese of the new mw3 console from ms thay have also anounsed a new head set that not only works on the xbox360 console through radio but also through blue tooth wich is odd but practicle with so menny people complaining about thare being no driver for use with the chat pad on the pc im gessing thare next step to inprove the microsoft xbox360 chat pad is to addbluetooth then it would just use a standerd bluetooth driver why ms desides now to use blutooth insted of years ago is beond me!

but now thay are including thare wireless mw3 head set to have bluetooth so that to me is like wow!i have broken so meny xbox360 wired and wireless head sets its crazy thare small and easy to misplace

but this one for mw3 is gray and says mw3 on it and includeds a charging dock

it might just be all in my head but im thinking in the future a xbox360 chatpad would be use quite easaly with the hd2 sory for my spelling errors!

but this is just a hunch! yesterday i sent my first smatphone off for repair and today I spray panted my white chatpad for my xbox360 black and then i came acrost this form maby its just ironic but has anyone even tryed out the chatpad for the ps3 controlers? I personaly hate ps3 so i wouldent know but arnt thay bluetooth dont thay light up?

and on another note we have so much tech today than we did when the hd2 came out that almost anythang is posible insted of adding a keybord how about adding a second touch screen!?

and some nice new keypord layouts on it like the thumb only layout that just came out for tablets!?

just my thoughts!

I droped my phone but it was inside a big protective case now i don't know if this issue is related to this but here it goes.

If i open a picture message with the phone in my hand the screen goes into landscape, when i exit out it stays in landscape until i exit the messaging client. Here is the strange part, if i leave my phone flat on the table and do the same it goes back to portrait mode as soon as i close the picture.

Does this sound like the phone has a hardware damage?

Tried restarting it and calibrating the accelerometer, nothing.

Can someone please also do me a favor and see if in the game Teeter when the phone is on the flat surface does the ball still rolls slightly to the left? I can make it stop and not move but it prefers to go to the left.

There's a setting for the wifi power, I would check that first to see if it's gotten moved:
