This is one good surprise. I have been using Pocket PC Phones since the first O2 XDA, then XDA II, then i-mate PDA2, and none was really compatible with any TV remote control software (unless you sit at a distance of 1 meter from your TV!). But now everything changed with the Jasjar. The IRDA is so powerful: I am using it as a TV/DVD/VCR... remote control nearly from any distance (even with small obstacles between the TV and the Jasjar). I tried NoviiRemote and Total Remote: they both worked perfectly.
Thanks for your report. Although I can't get Total Remote working on my I-mate Jarjar (Changed to DOPOD Chiniese rom) , however NoviiRemote works perfectly on it, and it even have VGA support!!!!
My jasjar and NR_deluxe
I am using NR_deluxe with distance 7 m :wink:
Yes, thanks for your report - I've just installed NoviiRemote.
At the very least, it'll be fun to turn off all those advertising screens that UK supermarkets have started introducing, as well as any any other CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) devices that happen to be in range.
awesome! thanks for letting us know - I wasn't even gpoing 2 bother testing remote apps after every device in my past failed so miserably.
Has anyone found a remote control app that works in landscape yet? The IR transmitter is on the side of the Universal right?
i try it
i can change channel at the maximum distance of 35 cm. (panasonic plasma)
change track to dvd at no more 40 cm
noviiremote deluxe 3.1 (05.08.30a)
jasjar rom 1.13.53wwe
this remote is useless.....
or i did something wrong
I have the O2 Exec and NoviiRemote Deluxe works well, good range. However Novviremote is let down by the lack of CCF support and the lack of a landscape mode. And the design mode is a little clunky.
Total Remote doesn't work for me. It can learn fine, but it doesn't seem to transmit anything (using iRDA or the Griffin option - not that I have a Griffin iRda).
WinCESoft Remote II looks to be the pick of the bunch, supporting VGA, CCF landscape et al, but I only have the crippled trial version of this software.

How about WinCESoft Remote II? Does it work on the HTC Universal?
What happens to Novii Remote if you switch screen to landscape? Does it still work since it has no landscape support?

Doesn't work at all in landscape, that'll be a great update or o2 execers...
But I'm gonna go ahead and buy it anyhow, and wait for an update. 10 times nicer to use than my previous PDAWIN.

Thanks for this response. I was going to try it when I get home. I guess I'll write to the developer of Novii Remote and ask when they will have support for landscape and WM5. Merry Christmas!
cannot create codebase TV_XXX
Hi,
When i trie to configure a device in Noviiremote Deluxe, i go to add new device and i follow the wizard. In last step, appear this message - "cannot create codebase TV_XXX".
Any ideia?
Thanks and Happy New Year!
I have installed Noviiremote Deluxe on my exec and set it up to work for my sky+ box which is great when the misses decides to hog the sky remote. But when i try to configure my Bang & Olufsen remote it crashes when it tries to read the volume up and down buttons. Anyone else had this problem?
I use Novii + Nikon ML-L3 DSLR IrRemote shutter profile and saved myself around 30USD
Remote control was one of the first thing i tested after getting the Universal & the CIR in Universal is quite strong, it didn't even need line of sight! :lol:
I came up with a great pseudo-hack for NoviiRemote Deluxe using MortScript.
For those who've tried to use the software properly, you have to have the screen flipped in portrait mode, yet use the software in landscape mode and hold it like a Sony PSP while aiming it at your TV or home equipment. Of course, if you flip it before you launch the program, it's in portrait mode. If you flip it after you launch the program, it will switch to a portrait skin. Neither method is good, especially if the IR port is on the device's side.
So, using MortScript, I came up with this nifty batch file:
Code:
message "Press OK when screen is flipped properly.","NR Deluxe"
run "\Program Files\NoviiMedia\NR Deluxe\NR Deluxe.exe"
sleep 1000
rotate 270
With this batch file, at least you'll be prompted to flip your screen around which will make the device turn portrait, to which it will launch the program after you press OK. It will wait a quick second, then rotate the screen to landscape mode, making the program switch to a landscape skin. From there, you can skin your remote the way you like it.
Voila! (God, I love MortScript - it is the shiznit!)
thx
Cool, I can confirm WinCESoft Remote II is working on my O2 Exec, had to change the com port in Remote II to com1 instead of com2 but apart from that seems to work perfectly! Range so far upto 7 feet, angle is a little fussy though more than 10/15 degrees either side of straight line and it stops working. Have tested with my Samsung Digi Cable box and my Matsui DVD Recorder.
Draw back it the landscape/portrait mode seems to get a bit screwed but I may need to get more skins as I dont seem to have a VGA 640x480 in the list .

Hello,
I've try many (ALL !!!) remote control apps on my HTC P3600, and I did not arrive has to make them function.
I've have actived parameters ---> connexions ----> send (receive entering data)

Remote central II ----> no signal work (but great app)
I've try netremote --- > too complex
Vito Remote ----> no fullscreen, no beautifful layouts..
I search a good app with CCF support and Fullscreen Support..or just app working on my Trinity...
Can u help me to make Remote central working on Trinity (Infrared port is detected !)
What Remote control app do u Use ???

Anyone have succes working with HTC P3600 and RemoteControl II, v2.12 ??
http://www.wincesoft.de/html/remotecontrol_ii.html
.... Novii don't work for me
hi castravete,
I've try Novii remote (last version) on my Trinity , but no way to get working...
This app run, but my tv don't receive signal...
I think is my Rom (French 2.4.1 rom by FAMAN).
Can other people test this app or other and tell me if is my rom ?
thx for all ;-)
it has a range of like 1m though... fairly useless imo
i've gotten up to 2m range with various htc devices
but the real tricky part is that not being a consumer ir
you have to aim
pointing in the general direction is a no go
Gimmic
Yeah if they could work at a greater distance then that would be good, The only thing I've found them good for is annoying the Currys, Comet and PC world assistants.
'Can I help you sir?'
Yeah is your TV compatible with my PDA?
'Sorry Sir'
Oh it appears it is *taps on Trin screen*
Oh, dvd player as well!
Shocked look from the assistant
I am having issues with Novii on my trinity. It is annoying with these codes, I am wondering if there is a better application for remotes.
the range is too limted, cant remember the one 1 tried (sorry) but it was about 1.5 away from tv
I think it's cause : most of this ROM nowaday is disabled or can't control IR via Commanager (i mean ROM for P3600 nearest...).
So, someone try downgrade ver ROM and test again all this stuff???
So please,someone make it for all.
sorry for my worst english...

Hello, I have got two PDA, HP HX4700 and HTC P3600. Novii remote with the HP 4700 has a range of 15mt the P3600 only 1 mt. The internal codes of noviremote works fine with the HP HX4700 but doesn't works with P3600. The only way to use noviremote with P3600 is use the learning mode for every device, I don't know why.
remote control
I use to have a samsung IP 830 from sprint that phone had an amazing remote control application it would be great if someone could hack it like they did with other apps from samsung devices
guys, I would like to remind you that IR Range is a function of your device not the remote control app. IR comm was only mainly developed for device to device communication at close range.
ie iPAQ h2200 IR range is about 6 inches
iPAQ rx3715 IR range is about 10+ FEET

awsome software....just tried it and it works great....tho its nearly impossible to get the athena to sit right.
I saw this ATEKSOFT software and thought it was very clever however from this point on I am advising people not to buy it. Although the software looks slick the customer service offered by the company is appalling. What is more, if you post complaints on their forum about the quality of after service they get deleted. Not what I would look for from someone who wants my money.
Nice idea - very badly executed.
You can do it for free
Download mymobiler: http://www.mymobiler.com
Download VH screen capture driver: http://www.hmelyoff.com/index.php?section=8
Start mymobiler and activate your mobile camera
Grab the part of the screen you want with VH screen capture
Now you have a webcam stream which you can use in any program like skype, msn etc..
Look at this video as example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wveANUBUIJM
Instead of using the microsoft remote tool use mymobiler. It is much faster.
PS: You need active sync to communicate with mymobiler
This is why I love this forum. I've learned something new today - I never would have thought of using the camera as a webcam, or about My Mobiler. I love My Mobiler, very cool app; note, it says you can connece via WiFi, too, not just Activesync. Interesting feature, when you activate "Mouse Curser To", and it essentially turns your mobile into a 2nd (or 3rd) display device for your desktop, with mouse and all.
One problem though, when I activate my camera I get normal video/pictures on the Athena, but only the foreground graphics (camera settings) on the desktop. The video is just a black screen. Any ideas?

I have the same problem.
My Mobiler shows only the foreground graphics.
Is there a way to shows what the camera shows in the athena screen?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Funny, I'm getting the same problem with my new touchII. It still works with both an Artemis and a Pharos on 6.1 Rom's.
Maybe something to do with the camera software or that it is a 6.5 ROM?
Can anyone confirm this?
I'm interesting in the current asking price of a Universal.
My primary interest is to use it with the RDP client to connect to windows due to its VGA screen - and thats about it.
Is it still quite an expensive bit of kit? And are there any hopes of swapping Blue Angel for one, as thats only a QVGA screen.
Cheers for any advice that can be given.
FYI, RDP client is there only in WM6(which has its share of bugs). If you use those files in WM5 for RDP client, you cannot use the built in hard keyboard or soft(onscreen) keyboard.
Note: RDP is not there in any WM5 ROM
I have a .cab that runs perfectly on my WM5 rom for the BA.
I've attached the one I use fine on BA.

Yes, only if you use WM6. As I have already said, using the abovementioned cab by you wont let you enter any input via keyboard. So, if you can live with the issues of wm6(mainly, inability to connect to wpa-tsk wifi network and some video call issues), then, you'll be happy with universal

Not true, if you install the above CAB on WM5, then you can use fullscreen RDP and there is no problem with the hardware keyboard at all! I just tried it yesterday on my WM5 Uni, it works great! There are a few bugs with it however:
- You must manually connect to the internet first, the RDP client will not connect for you. If you don't do this, then the RDP client will just report a strange error message.
- The "fit remote desktop to screen" option is permanently enabled. It doesn't make any difference if you tick this option box or not. This means that the remote screen will always be 640x480, which is no problem for me.
- It doesn't seem to close properly on first attempt. I have the X button of SPB Pocket Plus, and this does not close it first time - I have to ALT+TAB back to it and close it a second time before it will be properly closed.
Some or all of these bugs may only appear on WM5, but they are all very minor IMHO. Once again I can confirm that both fullscreen 640x480 VGA mode and the hardware keyboard on the Uni works perfectly in WM5, so enjoy!!! This new RDP client is incredibly fast and responsive, I use it all the time to connect to my home PC with the T-Mobile unlimited 3G data plan
Anyone been able to fine a remote control app for the 6800? Just something that (preferably) uses IR and can control my laptop with Vista MCE installed? I tried many different remote control apps and haven't got 1 to work, none of them so far are compatible.
IR is almost useless unless you're very close to the device... so close, in fact, that it would be easier to actually use the device you're trying to control.
There are many apps that can be used over bluetooth or over IP (which are both far better than IR).
There was an article I read about this once from Pocket PC mag which went into detail on this subject, and lists all the options. I don't have the exact address, but if you look around you should find it.

Really, have they lowered the IR power in recent devices? I used to run a remote control app in my e330 Toshiba Pocket PC and it worked better than the real remote I had. Even worked from a room away... I'd change the channel and my roomates wouldn't know what was hitting them... since they were sitting on the couch with the remote .

The ir in my treo 600 only worked from 3 feet away. That was a waste of time. Haven't even thought about rc programs since. Like Dishe said, if you're that close, you might as well just use the buttons on the front of the device; or use the original remote.
i've been looking for a remote control ir program that can control tv, dvd player, etc. with a 6800. but no luck yet, anybody know of one?

has anyone tried this software?

Noviremote works real well if you have the sd card antenna
Otherwise it's a waste of time. Now if Moviremote could come up with a new MICRO SD card slotted antenna...
Indeed,
Novi Doesn't Work, Neither Does Vito Remote
it says "Device has unsupported processor: MSM7500-400Mhz"
so i rly think theres something different about the 6800/mogul's IR that the programs are not yet compatible with :-(
Theres another program ive tried on the 6800 as-well, that didn't work....
though the name of the prgram escapes me @ the time.
try NetRemote.. Haven't tried it yet on my 6800, but worked like a champ on my Axim x51v
I've tried VNC, Niveus PocketRemote, novi, PPC Tablet, none of them run or run well.
i'm going to try rudeo tonight
haven't tried highpad Media Control
Found one maybe
I was able to install this on my Titan and it seems to work but have not yet seen it work since I can't find my tv codes - but at least it seems like it might work. It does not "learn" codes from other remotes unfortunately (unless I missed something) but if you can determine the code for your TV it just might work.
Please let me know if you can get this to actually control a device from your Titan
Thanks for this! This is the one thing I miss from my Palm days. heck when the dog ate my $100 remote I was able to go to a store, learn all of the custom codes for my Home Theater and have all of it workin again. Univiersal remotes never to stuff like allow you to change CDs in a 3cd player and other stuff like that even if you try all of the pre-programed choices for that vender...
Please keep us up to date with your findings. I'm gonna try that Nevo cab.

Novii
Novii Remote still excists and is coming up with a newer version. I just was a few days ago on there site and took about 600 code bases (free) from their site to program on my PPC. The software is not free but look around and you will find. It is also one of the best remote controllers. By the Way the new version that will come soon is Novii Remote Lite. But i will post de link also.
Good luck

On a lot of WM devices, you have to uncheck the "Receive all incoming beams" on the Settings/Beam screen? Try that? On some others the IrDA port is shared with another function and you may have to disable that function temporarily e.g. WiFi.
Also if this "free" software is a version of NoviiRemote, then there is a setting on the program for choosing the infrared port. I have found that using the AutoDetect did not work on some of my devices. Manually try each of the port settings. If this version is special to the device for which it was free, then there may be no setting function provided i.e. it is set to the port for that specific device and it is different port number to your HTC 6800.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone had found a soft working on WM devices (I don't know if mine has an IR, it's an HTC Touch Pro 2), and free of charge, of course
And, as the initial author says, I'm in the same case as him, I haven't really $30 to spend...
From what ive gathered/read these are just about useless as you have to be like no more than a foot or two away from the tv for them to work. the infared port is not near as strong as a regular tv remote

This is not a universal truth. The power of the IR transmitter built into the device is the deciding factor. I had kept two HP Jornada's going since they had a very powerful signal and could successfully work all devices, even by bouncing off walls of the room. This was somewhat special.
I currently have two FS Loox N560s (WM6.1 but no longer made) which also work well, but the beam is not as powerful or focused as the Jornada. But both FS and HP devices can operate all my equipment (using either NoviiRemote or PDAWin, I believe that both still available but paid for!) at 10-15 feet.
The biggest problem is that the new generation of WM devices just don't have IR ports any more. This seems to be because the demand has not been great from consumers, but also the devices are packed to roof with GPS, phone functionality, cameras etc. So something has had to be left out! Shame. I am stuck with old technology partly because it provides universal remote control capability!
Ah those new technologies...
OK, thanks.
Actually, that's what I expected... When you think all the things our new mobiles can do, you think they can do everything (I still expect the new feature that will feed me and be able to bring me some fresh beer when I need it !), thanks ooxteme.
That's a shame but, as you said, fingerstoo, when you put more and more things ON them, you can think they get rid of some of them.
But it's not really that important isn't it ?
Thanks anyway to both of you for these answers.
In my HP ipaq 6815 works fine, thanx

I had one BenQ P50 WM2003 PPC which had a universal remote control application factory installed and had a very powerful irda port by which i could control devices even from the reflection of wall/celieng etc. I had copied the entire folder from the Cdrive where a file
nameled recon.exe along with some associated files were there I shall try to upload the entire folder in rar format. once I get it! It should be safe somewhere inside a hard disc but I'm unable to recall where did i store it as I've suffered from a severe BP Stroke on july 16th last year! I am still searching for it in all my harddiscs. it is worth mentioning that, Novii remote also worked fine with my BenQP50 despite the factory installed software being there and. after copying the entire folder to a HTC PPC running in WM5 with IRDA port worked fine though I do not remember the model number.

On a lot of WM devices, you have to uncheck the "Receive all incoming beams" on the Settings/Beam screen? Try that? On some others the IrDA port is shared with another function and you may have to disable that function temporarily e.g. WiFi.
Also if this "free" software is a version of NoviiRemote, then there is a setting on the program for choosing the infrared port. I have found that using the AutoDetect did not work on some of my devices. Manually try each of the port settings. If this version is special to the device for which it was free, then there may be no setting function provided i.e. it is set to the port for that specific device and it is different port number to your HTC 6800.

Though my BenQ P50 WM2003 had Agilent software's preinstalled 'Universal remote control' which had a powerful IR on top front side and I could operate my any devices like TV/cd/dvd/LDplayer/AC/light/fan/curtains etc with that preinstalled 'universal remocon' software from Agilent software Pte Ltd. version 1.31 from a distance of 10-15feet distance and interestingly this NRDelux from this forum also worked beautifully despite of being "Universal Recon" pre-installed. but same NDRDelux is not working on my i-mate Ultimate 8150 whice is having the IR Port on the same position as the BenQ P50 while pressing anysoft-button 'the infrared port is used by an another application' error displays

I even tried by copying the whole folder of 'Remocon' with Dll files from benQ P50 and pasting on my i-mate Ultimate8105 but no luck may be due to OS as BenQ P50 runs on WM2003 and the i-mate Ultimate runs on WM6.1 hope some one can help me to run a Universal IR foftware on my i-mate Ultimate 8105
