HID Keyboard demo apears as joystick on Android device, not acting as HID on IOS

Dear Nordic,

I have managed to modify the HID Keyboard demo (SDK10/nRF51 DK) to have both keyboard and consumer control functions. Works fine on Android, however it shows as Joystick instead of keyboard, why? Second problem is that I can pair it with iOS device, but it won't see it as an input device, the key pressed have no effect. I use the encryption for the hid init: BLE_GAP_CONN_SEC_MODE_SET_ENC_NO_MITM

I already searched the forum, without any usefull post. Any input is welcomed.

Best regards, Laszlo

later update: main.c attached: main.c

  • Unfortunately I do not have Kit Kat here, but the HID keyboard example from SDK 10 shows as a keyboard here on Android 6. Seems a little strange. But I guess the showstopper now is that it does not show as a input device for the iOS device. I will have a look around to see if I find any clues to what may be the problem. It would still be useful to know what modifications you have made. If you can not post this in an open forum, you can post a case on My page. There you will get direct help from a Nordic application engineer, and everything there is kept confidential.
