Hi, i'm looking for a possibility to control my android phone with a small remote control. Does anybody know if it is possible to connect a bluetooth presenter to Android and control e.g. Mixzing, Winamp? Maybe this one? http://www.hama.de/00053265/hama-x-pointer-bluetooth-presenter_eng

There are certainly ways to control your Android using your computer.

But I haven't heard of a pointer that connects via Bluetooth to your phone.

Tell me, what are you trying to do, exactly?

I'm a badminton trainer and i want to play some music at the gym. Stop the music. Explain/show something and start the music again. I can't use the remote controls of most boomboxes because they are either infrared or to big.

So i want to hook up some loudspeakers to my android and control it with a presenter. Any better idea?

as far as i know it is possible to connect keyboards to android, this is just the HID BT Profile, and i know that there are presenters that register as hid and emulate a keyboard.
