Hi,
I was thinking, is it possible to write a command/script for a PPC phone, that would send a command via BT/IR to a reciever connected to the PC to power it up? I think that this could be done on the phone side (I have a Elf Ench.), but the problem lies in the hardware of the PC. My mobo supports wake-on functions:
- on RTC
- on external modems
- on PCI & PCIe deviced
- on PS2/USB keyboard
That first and last one will be probably useless, but what about the rest? I know that some people did it with IR, by connecting IR module to a pin on the MOBO, but IR has a limited range, and you have to point directly to the diode, but BT on the other hand is inactive when the PCs power is off...
What do you think, is it possible?
I have wakeup over USB working here.
Not with my PPC, but with my universal IR Remote.
I use the receiver from the Media Center Remote from Microsoft.
If your board can handle it, the power function of the MCE Remote
can wake up the PC.
It was no problem to learn the IR command to my universal remote.
So it should be no problem to get it working with novii remote or similar ppc programs (if your ppc has a IR-port, or better Consumer IR for more reach).
The MCE remote isn't that expensive, should be under 30$.
Now I have a wake-on-keyboard (SPACE) setup in BIOS, and my mobo is quite new (ASUS P5K) so I think it can handle it. But I just realized, that my Elf doesn't have an IR port, so my only option is BT ... The main problem is, does BT stay active after power off? If not, than there is nothing that we can do ...
And one more thing, I wouldn't want to bootup a IR/BT program to send a command, that just takes too long, is there a way to write some sort of a shortcut to send a BT command w/o launching a additional application?
I think your only way is to send a magic packet over to your network card, assuming it supports wake on lan

Is there any way in pocket pc to transfer active call to other pcoket pc in close range with IR or Bluetooth same as we do with normal phone coference/transfer
it's possible to write a program which enable it
there is no such support as default
could be that there are programs already made
which does it as there are many pocketpc owners who also have
bluetooth and IR who may also have wanted such a software
Hi to all.
Does anyone know if we can use our PDA as remote control via IrDA port ?
If so, what would be necessary to install ?
Thanks in advanced.

Doesn't work
In the learning mode I want to learn,I tap on any button and it should be learned and beep afterwards. But when I tap on the button,it just appears some text on the screen for a short while(less then 0.5sec=unreadable). Know someone why? Qtek2020 is in the list of supported devices.
it works 100% on my himalaya
but then i dident try to teach it
i just picked my philips tv from the profile
?
And what's the distance that it can be used for? I thing,that IrDA port is not so powerful as IR LEDs in RC...
when i sit in my sofa i could get it to work
it was 3m
but IR on such devices have a pretty narrow beam compared to one way IR's like on a normal remote so you really have to aim
So, got a nice shiny new Advantage 7501, wm6 ... life is good.
Then i install the traveltrak CE software for my dive computer (uwatec 2g). I've used it for the past couple years on my ipaq hx4705 to download dive log info (while still on the boat) via IR .. you also can setup the dive computer via the IR .. much easier than the 2 buttons on it.
anyway, the 7501 has no IR? with a 4 into 1 (usb host) cable would it be able to use a USB-IR dongle?

I think for remote control, the speaker-IR range extender (from griffin tech) might still work with their "total remote" software.. will try it later

its really a case of trial and error. wm6 does have ir functionality, though how it responds to external ir devices is a mystery to me at least
it's a USB host device... don't see that working.
Hi.
I'm looking for gamepad for playing with my Pocket PC.I try to use the hidgamep.dll but untill now it is not successful....
There is the gamepad for chainpus but seems my pocket Pc not work with it.I would like to use the PS3 sixaxis or dualchok 3.But there is probléme with them if yuo open your bluetooht and try to find this gamepad device you won't find them.I read and search on interent and found some handle.I use ubuntu ans sixpaire for change adresse (adresse of my pocket pc's bluetooth) where the bluetooth gamepad must pair and try to pair.But the trouble is the same no sony's gamepad seen...After thinking may be it is the bluetooth stack (I think mine is Microsoft) wich is weak there is may be some lake in the stack/driver...(because under ubuntu or windows you must setup/update the usb and the bluetooth drivers.So can any one help me in this project writting a driver for the sixaxis/dualshok 3 bluetooth gamepad?
I install the widcomm bluetooth stack but when I try to start the bluetooth " I get message there is not enought memory for start bluetooth"
I'm less than a beginner in program devellopement.
I think it would be great to play with this gamepad with the emulator (Gameboy advance, psone,Snes or famicom ect..)
Thank.
Me Too
It's a very good idea , i'm looking for this too and no response !!!
That will verry good to play with mY HTC HD2 with a gamepad playstation 3 en Fpsece !!!!!
No Genius Xda Developers to this ?????

When pairing a new Dualshock3 with the PS3, you should recall that you must connect it via USB the first time in order for it to pair from that point on. If you try to use said controller on a different PS3, you have to connect the controller via USB once again in order to initiate pairing with the new machine, erasing the controller's tie with the original PS3. Even the PS3 does not just see it out there and connect. If this were to ever work, you would more than likely need to develop an application that allowed you to connect the controller to you phone via usb for the initial setup.
That in itself has its own problems. There are usb host drivers for certain devices, however I highly doubt it would recognize a Dualshock3 out of the box. So most likely you would need:
Modified USB host drivers
A Program to handle the USB setup of the controller itself
Probably a proprietary Bluetooth profile
Now i'm no expert on PS3 inner workings so I cant say for sure what profile you would need or if it wouldnt work with an existing supported profile. Before you cross that bridge however, I would think you'd need to at least setup the pairing through USB which is its own challenge.
Can anyone else provide more input/revise my answer?
I'm sure that plugging the PS3 remote into a PC could yield some information about how they connect it to the PS3.. an ID or something that gets changed every time maybe? I doubt you could just grab the PS3 remote, plug it in and go from there, but there has to be some kind of ID that you can associate with the controller and call from your phone to connect to it.
The sixaxis stores the address of its master and will only communicate through Bluetooth with its master.
I wrote a program (finished last Friday night) to change the master address of the sixaxis to whatever I want from a Windows PC, in this case my phone's bluetooth mac address, so now the sixaxis sees my phone as its master and is ready to communicate with it.
But that was the easy part. (Actually it wasn't easy at all, and very time consuming, but easy in comparison to the remaining tasks). Now I need to write a program that will run on the phone and read the connection attempts (and all other data) from the sixaxis and respond in a manner that the sixaxis will understand.
Anyone know of a good Bluetooth Packet Sniffer that runs on Windows Mobile?
best of luck with this Cobaltikus.... would love to see this happen!

hi, I was wondering if it is possible to send commands from your android device to your xbox 360 ? (via usb)
so that your phone works as a controller.....
(Im not asking to connect a xbox 360 controller to an android phone - but connecting an android phone to a xbox console!)
Does the 360 support a hid usb keyboard? You could probably emulate that on the android device.
Better, in my opinion, and with a wider appeal would be a bluetooth ir blaster. Should be a fairly simple device, controlled over bluetooth, that emmits ir remote signals to be received by your xbox or other home theater equipment. Not sure if something like this is available, but there should be.
usb is rather limited (mostly because it's an xbox, if it was a PC it would be easier), but like voodoo55 said, bluetooth would be possible

but there are wired-xbox-controllers that connects via usb to the xbox....
the phone could just send the standard usb-commands to the console, right?
no bluetooth support on xbox im afraid.... it may be possible by studying what buttons on the controler do.. eg. what command each button does when pressed.. obviously its coded some how.. as voodoo55 said you may be able to emulate this using some sort of custom made app... good luck

the xbox controllers are special, any other usb input device can't be used outside of the messenger - M$ did this to prevent/lower 3rd party controllers, similar to how they only accept M$ wireless adapters
