Bluetooth HID devices supported

Leeeroy Jennnkinnns!
It would appear that the Evo 3D supports bluetooth HID devices. I just paired and connected my MoGo Mouse. But I don't have a mouse cursor, and there are lots of things I can't interact with. I can scroll the carousel, and I can scroll menus and make selections. But right-click is not bound to anything, and I can't go back.

Maybe it's the mouse? Does anyone have a BT mouse and/or keyboard they can test? I'm going to assume that Wiimotes will work for gaming apps that support BT controllers.

Great to know that we don't need CyanogenMod to do this. Hoping that mouse support is more robust though.
 
I have 2 different BT mice/keyboard pairs, just not with me - but I will be trying them now :)

Yes, HID support for keyboards only. But there is no HID mouse cursor support (driver) yet for stock android. If you pair and connect a mouse you will see it is using the keyboard profile (because there is no mouse profile). You need CM7 for this right now on EVO 3D, or to be rooted and install one available on XDA I was reading about. There is an HID bluetooth stack available somewhere there.:cool:
