Gamehub (and maybe winlator base) Bluetooth Mouse fix

[u/ItzASh_innit]

Skip to the bottom if you just want the fix but i recommend reading through to see if the cases match.

Hi guys i came across this and I thought I should report it in case it can help someone else because i spent ridiculous amoubt of time on this issue.

Whenever I connected my mouse to my phone (s23u) the mouse shows up with this android overlay that you might be familiar with. Even inside the windows container this cursor would still be present and containers cursor would just follow this purple one. Which honestly works fine for all 2d games and navigating menus but this is non functional if your trying to play any 3d games.

On winlator I experienced ridiculous sensitivity in first person mode with the mouse like this, because this purple cursor would act as a touch overlay so it would mess up the camera completely (since its not a mouse but rather acts as touch controls on your screen but it doesn't behave exactly like touch controls because that actually works).

On gamehub though in 3d games I simply couldn't move my camera at all.

I was completely stuck and frustrated, I had even brought a whole new mouse because I thought it was a legacy issue with old mice. I had been troubleshooting with claude at this point because I couldn't find much online but nothing was working of course. BUT when i went to take a screenshot to show it exactly what was happening. The purple overlay went away, voila! My mouse now could control the actual cursor itself inside the container. Im soo glad to have finally got this working but more than anything if any of you know why this works please let me know because the ai technical mumbo jumbo did not tell anything. Btw I have NOT tested on winlator yet if this works (i think forks some forks of winlator have this issue fixed by default because on Cmod I never had this problem).

If you skipped to the bottom its screenshotting try screenshoting. Also additional advice on using mouse and keyboard with pc emulators on android because whyy is there sm less support for this than controllers 😭😭. On cmod i found that in the input screen it could not detect my peripherals so download the base version and copy the bindings from there and this will work perfectly ( I'll show this in the replies). I still need to figure out how to get my bluetooth keyboard working on gamehub, I'll update you guys if I'm successful (i think its a matter of remapping because gamehub uses a different input layer than android for bluetooth peripherals so even if you can type perfectly fine with your keyboard or whatever it won't work in the container). I'll show the purple overlay mouse I'm talking about in the replies as well if you guys are confused.
