Blutro/Celeste 2/... not working on iOS 7

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello 

I want to play with my PS3 Controller on my iPhone 5S 
It is jailbroken and i installed Blutrol 

When i try too connect the controller with my phone, an error appears.
"Bluetooth not accessible!" 

I checked out BTstack in settings and saw this message: "There was an error 
loading the preference bundle for BTstack" 

What does it mean? 
Is my iPhone 5S not compatible with BTstack?

i got iFile and found two (2) files with names close to what you
mentioned...they are named:
/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist
and
/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist%

I assume you sauggest i ONLY /var/mobile/Library/Preference
s/ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist

Also I don't know how to use iFile to DELETE files...iFile let me EDIT
them, where i could erase all the bytes, but no DELETE???

should i delete both of those files i mentioned and
HOW can i get iFile to DELETE?

NOTE that the FREE trial version of iFile got installed...i wnat to buy it
IF i can figure out how to delete...and i used the menu taps to get down to
those file names...don't even know how to key in a delete command like:
delete /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist

thanks for responding to my previous emails,

jerry

You cannot delete file in iFile free version. Buy full version, its easy

i purchased the iFile product...
i fired it up...after registration...
I got to where ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist was showing under preferences
i pushed the "Edit" button in the upper right - a circle appeared to the
left of all the files listed...
I pushed the circle next to ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist
I pushed the trash can on the bottom - it aksed if i should "MOVE FILE TO
TRASH"
I pushed that and it disspaeraed from the list
I pushed the trash can again and EMPTIED the trash...
I pushed DONE
I then took a look-see with iFile and the file was indeed no longer
showing...
i then....
tried several different ways to re-start including power downs and ups and
no matter what i do, the file, "ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist," keeps
reappearing when i go look for it with iFile...and the system never
displayed any different about any mouses not did it find the blue tooth
mouse...

I used iFile to delete both ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist abd
ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist% (just for grins and giggles) many times and
re-ran through the above sequence in many different ways....

let me know if i missed any steps...

thanks again,

jerry.

The .plist(s) should reappear. The deletion (once) is just to trigger a refetch 
of the license key.

Could you post "ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist%"? I don't know what creates that 
one, so maybe its content might have some information.

Matthias : I'm attaching BTServer.pklg here. I hope this sheds some light on 
the issue with the Microsoft mouse. It's still not pairing.

I want to downgrade from ios7.1 to 7.0.4.  Please, I'll even pay to make this 
happen.  I'm trying to avoid buying a used ipad with ios7.0.4.

my BTC Mouse & Trackpad say it is 1.6.1  not 1.6.2 and i just reinstalled
it again...it still just sits there in Settings with the BTC - BLUETOOTH
COMPANION showing PacketLogger turned on - GREEN with the "Extension: BTC
Mouse & Trackpad under it and the DEVICES just keeps spinning...there is no
mouses or anything else showing up to select under PacketLogger....and the
mouse does not pair...

will there be a new release availalble in the futures where a re-install
(or delete install) will make this work?

working...on jump, it drags around the circle but i do not care about
that...the pointer is there and it does what i need...

The latest update did the trick for me. I was finally able to pair a BT mouse I 
had working previously on the iOS 6 version of your application. It now seems 
to work well on iOS 7 with the two BT mice I have tried today (MS Presenter 
8000 and Logitech Ultrathin). Glad to have my pointer back on iOS 7. Thank you 
very much for your hard work!

Matthias the mouse has been working great. However i did find one issue 
hopefully u can help me with. I just used teamviewer to help friend out and 
when i was taking control of his pc i lost to use of rt click on the mouse when 
controlling his pc. i tried preso mode and when i tried that i lost the mouse 
pointer all together. When i tried 2 finger touch and switch on teamviewer the 
pointer is now fine but rt click on remote pc still does not work. 

Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong. 

Thanks

jloeb@.. hi. support for right click in remote desktop apps is hard, as iOS 
doesn't have a concept of it and remote desktop apps have way for that. I've 
added a special hack for Jump Desktop where BTC directly hands the mouse events 
to the app bypassing iOS touches altogether, which then make the scroll wheel 
and right work flawless. It's not possible to do this in a general way and also 
relies on remote desktop app devs not changing their interal code to much resp. 
providing a nice way to inject mouse data in the first place.

Thanks for  update on Remote Desktop issue. Do u have any advice for when the 
BT mouse becomes a little laggy on screen. I notice from time to time the mouse 
cant keep up with what im pointing at. Should i try a reinstall or maybe some 
other little tweak fixes this quickly. Other than that. its great!!!

 matthias, any chance in future Microsoft RDP client and TeamViewer would be supported? These 2 are by far most popular. MS RDP if rt click worked could replace my laptop when working remote from work. And team viewer is most popular remote control help tool with over 50mil downloads.

Is there a list of compatible Bluetooth mice?  I think this would be the 
easiest way.  I have went through 2 mice so far with no luck Logitech M317 and 
Micrososft Wireless Mobile 3500 (both are very common bought from wal-mart and 
Target).  Neither of these devices are working.  My bluetooth headphones are 
working properly as well as a new trent bluetooth keyboard case (I already had 
connected and working before I tried this program).  I wonder if the issue has 
to do with the fact that these mice have a bluetooth dongle that has to be 
plugged in to usb port instead of just being a stand alone.

*I updated my btc companion , did a restart of springboard multiple times after 
multiple uninstall / re-install of program, I also did a reboot of the ipad 
mini multiple times).*

**bluetooth settings DO SHOW "Extensions: BTC Mouse & Trackpad" I have also 
deleted the file "ch.ringwald.btc-mouse.plist" (I was able to find it doing a 
search but I believe it was in a different location then what you listed it was 
in /var/tmp for me).**

This is a very weird issue

**UPDATE** I just got off the phone with Logitech support and they informed me 
that even if I have a laptop, ipad etc. that has bluetooth built into it that 
we would still need to plug the bluetooth receiver that comes with the mouse in 
for the device to work  and be discovered (I believe this is because of a 
vulnerability that was found in bluetooth devices allowing people to do 
wireless key logging).  In our case that would stop the mouse from working with 
the ipad because there is no usb port for their special bluetooth dongle.  This 
may be the case with a lot of the new bluetooth mice from major brands I will 
contact Microsoft support as well to verify this problem with my other mouse.

@mattlew64: Neither the Logitech M317 nor the Micrososft Wireless Mobile 350 
are Bluetooth mouse. There's no mention of the word "Bluetooth" on the page. If 
it has "wireless" in the name and/or comes with a special USB dongle, it 
usually isn't Bluetooth. As such they won't work (well, not unless there's an 
update to support those USB dongle, which is not very likely).

Matthias, great job on the release for iOS7. My only issue seems to be 
scrolling. The scroll seems to work fine on the home screen, and it scrolls 
through the icons but it doesn't seem to work in any apps. Safari, , Chrome, 
Word, etc... nothing. It's just weird since it seemed to work just fine with 
the iOS6 version of BT M&S. Any thoughts? Keep up the great work!

Curious, did you drop support for webe++?? Just the ios 7 timeframe said it 
would be before BTC and yet BTC has been out a good couple of months now. Is 
there any pointing waiting for update or is the weak dead? 

Original comment by Libp...@gmail.com on 17 Jul 2014 at 4:38

[GoogleCodeExporter]

@libpala: webe++ isn't dead yet. I had updated it to work on iOS 7. It's now 
lacking the support for landscape/orientation handling and I've asked 
Gabriel/Weblooks.ch several times so far, but he didn't move (I just have no 
clue about UI programming). feel free to bug him.

Matthias thanks for the reply. Good to know it isn't dead :D

Thanks for explaining why the update hasnt been released, I hope Gabriel can 
sort the UI out soon :)

Hi Valore is selling this combo keyboard/trackpad 
(http://www.valore.sg/Valore/project/valore-2-4ghz-wireless-keyboard-and-mouse-v
-ac666/) and I have read conflicting reports of this working/not working with 
IOS 6 and 7.

Would Matthias (or anyone else who has this) be able to let me know if it works 
before I buy BTC KB&TP? The keyboard works fine, but no mouse pointer.

Thank you!

@dds2410  The webpage doesn't mention Bluetooth and you get a separate USB 
Dongle -> it cannot work. (if anything metions Wireless, it's usually NOT 
Bluetooth)

@dds2410 well, that at least uses Bluetooth. I don't know if the mouse part is 
supported by BTC Mouse & Trackpad. BTC Mouse & Trackpad doesn't support taps in 
general, and I don't know if this one has dedicated left/right buttons. I've 
got some reports that various combi devices don't work but I'm not able to fix 
it currently. I could only refund the BTC Mouse & Trackpad purchase if it 
doesn't work, but cannot help you with finding a working device. sorry.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Thanks for the clarification! It doesn't have a dedicated left and right button 
so I guess its a no go :(

No need for a refund, I didn't purchase yet, found someone who did and said she 
couldn't get it working.

If ever you do get such device working, please let us know!

Thank you!

Hope you guys can help me. I had successfully paired my Logitech Thin Mouse 
with iPad. But after I used it on my MacBook, the iPad refused to connect it. 
It appeared in iPad bluetooth devices list but just won't connect. Tried 
"forget" the mouse and "on/off" the bluetooth to no avail. Very strange! Please 
help.
