Am I missing some sort of installation process, or should it be plug and play and i've recieved a faulty keyboard?

Answer 1

Micro Usb Keyboard

Answer 2

You misread or misinterpreted the description. It works with a tablet PC, not a tablet. There is a difference.



You can root your tablet and install a driver. Find more info on android forums. You need to use a Bluetooth keyboard.

Answer 3

should be just plug and play, there's no on off switch maybe? I'm assuming it's powered by the tablet so there's no need to charge it, probably just a faulty case, try to get a refund.

Answer 4

Just go to settings , Bluetooth and switch it on. Now , see whether it detects nearby devices. If there are no nearby devices with bluetooth on ,then obviously it's not gonna detect them. Even then if it doesn't detect , switch off and switch on your Tab and then try. Even then if it doesn't work, then your Bluetooth adapter is damaged and you have to get it replaced.
