Subject: Elektex bluetooth keyboard incorrect device class
Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2017 17:05:14 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170215140513.GA19149@localhost> (raw)
I'm trying to get Elektex (G-Tech) Bluetooth Smart Fabric keyboard
work on Linux (latest kernel).
This keyboard have been supported by Android devices via some
unofficial apk (I only found footprints of using some Bluez functions
and native Android keyboard + device key mapping in sources). But when
I tried to connect it to Linux, I saw that it's device class is
0x500204 (like a cell phone) in btmon output and it's naturally not
determined as a HID device.
Could someone direct me how to get this keyboard work like HID device?
Where should I start from?
Here is some minimal info about the device:
# hcitool scan

# sudo hcitool info 00:16:C1:00:6A:C8

(latest command return active connections, but after several seconds
the device is disconnected by host)
