HID Drivers for the Viliv X70

Finally a beta version of a HID Driver for PS/2 that works in the Viliv x70 device has been released to an user that kindly has given it to me to host it.

The driver can be downloaded here.

  2. Does the driver support the S5 too? Any idea if there is one for the S5?

    Thanks for the effort!

  3. I downloaded it, and installed it on my S5 with Windows 7. I then went to Device Manager and chose the first PS2 device, and updated the driver, pointing to the x32 folder in the driver. Most everything now works, although I have a few issues... The login keyboard works, as does the onscreen keyboard that pulls out from a tab. What doesn't work is the small 'tip' icon which is supposed to appear when I tap in the address bar on Internet Explorer. Also, the only calibration that works is the one in VilivMgr.

    Truthfully, these issues may be self-inflicted, as I have not found doccumentation for installing the driver correctly. Also, I'm hesitant to remove the VilivMgr applet, since it's also what controls WiFi and Bluetooth.

    Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

    Regards.

  4. Unfortunately, I do not have a S5 to see if the drivers work or not correctly.

  5. Hi Frank-
    Thanks for responding. I undertand you don't have an S5 to test with, so let me change the question a bit... Are there instructions for loading the HID drivers on an X70 posted anywhere on the Internet? If so, could you please provide me a link, and if not, just give a quick description of what you did to install them on your X70?

    Thanks!
    Michael

  6. Officially no. but in the UMPCPortal.com forum there is a discussion opened about this driver so there I believe that I have seen people talking about their experience in how to install it.

  7. Thanks, Frank. I've seen/posted in that thread, but there are no specific installation instructions. I'll try Dynamism next...

    Regards.

  11. Good day. I decided to update the driver in the Viliv X70 using DriverPack _Solution_ 11_ R164W. Drivers are updated. A driver for the touchpad is not updated. . An error has occurred. Do not tell where to get this driver, as it put right. And as it is called in the task manager. Regards, Alexander. mail nokian516@gmail.com

  12. Alex, I do not know how to help you. I do not have any drivers for that device if that's what you are asking.
