I'm looki addon keyboard either bluetooth (HID profile) or standard
usb qwerty keyboard adapted with usb a m usb to usb micro-b 5pin
male. if the port can't provide enough power I can add a self-powered
usb hub (upto 2A 5vdc).

I'm not sure which bluetooth profile incredible prvides in froyo.

My problem is my fingures are too big for for softkeyboard,
an dn it doesn't come with a stylus.

Anyone know if its possible to use a 'real' or bluetooth keyboard
with Froyo Incredible?

Bluetooth Keyboard

I just saw this in a Mobile Crunch article describing a bluetooth keyboard earlier this week. (Mobile Crunch Article)

The product page states it will be available in 2011...its definitely a good idea, pending it works as good as we all hope it will! (Product Page)

I don't know about usb hid, but bluetooth hid is definitely not supported on an incredible stock rom.. rooted or not.

no usb, but maybe BT

The port on the USB is the wrong end so I am thinking it will not work, but I wonder if BT serial ??? My stereo in the car transfers phone book data and controlls the phone and media player stuff so I bet with the correct drivers it could work.

Found Freedom Pro SPP/HID that should work

It's a dual mode SPP and HID, I talked to them, they provide a driver
for the Android so it can talk SPP and still be an HID device to the OS.

Mine is supposed to arrive monday, I'll test and report results.

I am hoping you had good results last Monday with the keyboard. How did it go?

Freedom Pro bluetooth keyboard does work, (at least with Virtuous 3.0.1).

I set the keyboard to SPP mode, and powered it on, paperclip poked its
button to get into pairing mode. It paired fine, code 0000.

Once in paired but not connected mode. I went to their website (on the phones browser)
to download the driver file. http://www.otadrivers.com. After install
I setup the driver in settings following the guide on their website. It worked after that.

I have stock rom.
Has anyone use this on htc sense stock?
