Hi Holger,

no. You will always need hid2hci to switch from HID mode into HCI mode,
because after reboot the HID mode is default.

For your HID devices you only have to connect them once using "hidd -c".
After that they will reconnect if you use them. To make this work
without any trouble you must run "hidd --server" at boot time and before
you switch into HCI mode with hid2hci.

Regards

Marcel
