What is HID profile?

HID profile is one of the many Bluetooth Profiles. It is called the "Human Interface Device" Profile. It is the main Bluetooth Profile used to connect keyboards and mice and other interface devices together.

You can see a list of profiles here.

There are some custom HID profiles written, but they all require a rooted device.

Until someone either writes their own HID API to interface with the bluetooth device, or Android supports this, it will be on hold.
