Hi Kyle,

(The discuss here now is focused on Gamepad thought USB not BT HID profile)

As my experience, mobile device normally acted as a USB client mode and it 
should be changed to USB Host mode for servicing the GamePad device.
And USB OTG is a feature on most current device now.

Then once USB OTG is enabled, a USB mouse can be used on Tablet device. 
According to this I think HID manager is supported by Android kernel.

Thanks,
Sincerely yours.

主旨: Re: [b2g] Bluetooth and gamepad API?

Other relevant bugs:

Bug 852944 - Add content process support to Gamepad backend
Bug 852945 - Gonk gamepad backend

I've got both assigned to me at the moment, as well as the gamepad haptics 
bugs. Would love to take a look at them soon, but that hasn't happened yet. If 
someone has cycles and wants to help out, lemme know.

I think the big question for usb is the current HID manager support in our 
android kernel. If that exists, we don't need the bluetooth hid layer to be 
done before implementing this. We could just put code in HAL that uses the hid 
manager (similar to what we do with the desktop platforms for joysticks). I'll 
poke around in the 4.3 build and see what the state of that is.
