I know you want free... but I use Novii Remote and it is hands down awesome. It's seriously worth the money.

amazing what you can accomplish when you search the world wide web... i seem to have found an unlimited trial version, 4.1 to be exact, however the ir range with the wizard apparently sucks, and the program eats up lots of resources... so i deleted it

huh????

Since when is giving a gift stealing???? Do you not think that there prevails a wee bit too much paranoia as propagated by software developers???
As far as I am concerned, giving someone software with the registration key constitutes a gift and not stealing, provided the person giving it paid for it. Does that make sense?
Incidentally, philinhot did ask for a FREE remote app did he not? Then along comes good samaritan gldrush98 and suggests one that costs money!!!
Come now guys, let's not get too paranoid about this.
Great forum.

well did the programmer put in the EULA that you could gift your key away? doubt it
he did ask for a freebie, then someone informed of some good payware... then philnot asked for the key...
this isnt a warez board, most of the people on this board are developers.. and i am sure the ones that develop software and sell for a price wouldnt be happy about having their software stolen... im not saying i dont do it myself, i have the knowledge on where to search to find what i need, but i dont post crap like that on this board, this isnt the place for it, its disrespectful to the dev's on this site, and its NOT what this site is intended for...
if philnhot101 would have never asked for the key in public then this conversation never would have happened...

Ur right about the Wizard's IR range - I tried Novii, it works perfectly, but the Wizard's poor IR range lets it down and renders it useless

A quick warning: warez, serial numbers etc. will be moderated out at once.

I use novii, it works fairly well. I use it for my TV, Macbook Pro, Comcast cablebox and Xbox 360.
The range varies between each one. Surprisingly, the cheapest electronic I have is my tv which is a 27" Apex, which I can change channels/volume from up to 7 feet away. My macbook is also fairly good.
The others, not so good. My cablebox is only about 5 feet away. The Xbox varies for some reason. Sometimes I hit it from about 6 feet away, sometimes I can't even turn it on from 3 feet away.

Just wondering, but does Novii come with IR profiles pre-installed? It'd be nice if I could use it for my 360 since I really don't feel like buying a $30 remote just for the heck of it.

Hey Mark, give this program another shot. While the range on the IR does suck, Novii has worked with Texas Instr to add drivers that (somehow) boost the IR range for this prog. No kidding, I was able to control TV, DVD and Tivo from across the room. Only problem is the width of the beam is horrible, so you have to point your wizard directly at the IR receiver, but could still be useful for some folks out there.
West87, yes it does include preloaded profiles for many components--My Samsung DVD player, Philips TV and Tivo all worked with the built-in profiles. 500 more can be downloaded from their website as well.

Well, to be completely honest, I was using a trial of the 4.0 pre-release version, not 4.1. That may have something to do with it as well...I'll try looking for a trial of 4.1 or 4.2 and see if its any better/worse.

i obtained 4.2 from their site, the hacked version i found was 4.1, both yielded the same results

i dont want to take sides but its not so much stealing its more breaking the terms of copyright. Most peices of software are licensed for 1 machine only so even if someone gives u the software and the legit key then thats break copyright law so its a type of theft. If someone had an application for remote control etc and the terms of the licence didn't specifiy the number of machines it had to run on then that would be fine. Sorry to be a pain just wanted to clear that up

[REQ] / [QUE] Spotify for Windows Mobile

Hi guys!
Ive been hearing and reading stuff about spotify for mobile phones being developed.
Some sources say they only plan to launch apps for android, iphone and symbian's. Whle others include WinMo.
Would this be a possible software that can be created? If i could get this on my TP2 it would be incredible.
Any of guys have any info other than this?
www.spotify.com

AFAIK, they were advertising for a WM developer to work for them, but since about a month ago it disappeared and I've heard nothing since.
I would love this app, but I suspect that the best you can expect is either a "wi-fi only" version (like iplayer is, ie. not available over 3G/HSDPA) or a version that it is only available to premium members (such as what is rumoured to be being given the once over by Apple, £9.99 a month, so to not compete too much with iTunes on their devices)

Yeah
That wont matter though, im allready a premium member. The whole idea is genius and 9.99 is nothing anyways.
But id still like them on my phone. could just bring my TP2 when im atfriends and plug it into the amplifier.

hope you are wrong on that one, especially as some of us in the uk get 7.2mbps hsdpa & soon to be 14.4mbps. Hell 7.2mbps is faster than most bt broadband customers get.

Bluetooth Keyboard Support?

Hey guys, I'm about to order a Galaxy S, but there's one very pressing question I have before doing so. The phone includes the thinkfree office app, but editing/creating documents with an onscreen keyboard (even swype) is nearly impossible. I need a phone that I can quickly edit some docs with it on the train, so i was wondering, is it possible to hook up a bluetooth keyboard to this phone? I know the streak has this profile, so is it possible to port it to the galaxy S if it doesn't have it? Thanks in advance guys!

There's an open issue for this over at android google code: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1147
in the comments to this issue someone mentioned this link: http://www.teksoftco.com/index.php?section=blueinputandroid
quote from the site:
BlueInput is the only Bluetooth HID Driver available for the Android platform. Using our driver, you can easily connect bluetooth keyboards to your Android, and enjoy the comfort of a wireless input device.

i'm going to test this tomorrow with a Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 6000 and report back.

Thanks man, I'd never heard of the app before. They mention an unlimited trial of their app online, but purchasing it costs $9.99. If you're familiar with the software, what are the limitations of the trial? Also as a galaxy S user, what are your impressions of thinkfree office? Is it an actual decent editor for rich word documents on the go? Would you need the bigger screen of the streak to make it truly competent or is the 4 inch enough? Thanks mate

Hey, sorry for the double post. I just wanted to know if you had already tested it out and if your impressions were positive. I think this could be a pretty important thing to a (albeit a niche) group of people. Please let me know

no worries, i don't think it's a double post just wanted to reference this over here.
haven't had the time to test yet, will do it this weekend.

WIME Nano Smartwatch, looks nice

Interesting Android smartwatch here. It can actually be used as a standalone phone, bands are GSM/GPRS Quad Band:GSM 850/900/DCS 1800/PCS 1900 MHZ (can this be used on AT&T?).
What I'm not seeing is if it can be used as a dialer for your phone, so you can just leave it in your pocket and make and receive calls like the Gear.
What do you guys think? I'm tempted to get it just to play around with.

Doing some further reading, yes you can initiate a call to your phone with it, woot! It also has music over bluetooth and local storage. It looks like it has no speaker/mic so you have to use a headset with it, boo, but that's ok.

D'oh. I missed it, I went straight down to the pictures. Either that or the page didn't load completely the first time. Either way, thank you!
That's not a bad price point at all... maybe a mini server or media player...

Feature phone software, bleh.
Although I guess for 100 bucks you can't expect it to run Android.
Edit: Hmm, just noticed no where does it say there's a speaker built in...guess you have to use a headset to use it as a phone.
Also only compatible with Android 2.3-4.0. Doesn't say it works with newer.

Strange, I was also surprised by that 4.0 rather then 4.x reference. And I think you are right about headphone 3.5mm jack as the only way to listen to the music. Would have been great if they would include a camera in there.

Is it ok to say that it looks kinda...ugly?
Or is it just me?

Good Lord. I'm off tonight. I thought it RAN android. In this case, I'd say the price point may be a little high.

Haha, first thing that crossed my mind when i saw it.
Dunno why but personally i find most smart watches just tend to look either dull, or just plain awful. Maybe it's because of the space they have to work with? Dunno :/

You guys realize it's a phone? It might be nice to have as a backup phone, or if I just want a tiny phone. It doesn't run apps, but I never had much use for apps on a 1.5" screen.
It's interesting, I may grab one just to play around with. It seems to have AT&T bands. I don't plan on using it like a watch though, it's too ugly like that. I'd just stick it in my pocket or clip it on.

We're fully aware. It's just between recent offerings like the Omate Truesmart and previous offerings like every chinese watch phone out there, this one seems like too little too late to really make sense right now.
If you want a cheap feature-phone watch check out what's available to get a style you like. This one is pretty big and ugly for what it does.

So I got one and got to say this thing is a perfect companion for a phone at work. Built in mic allows you to answer on your wrist and be like I'll call you back it also has Bluetooth audio out and wireless headset support. Weird thing is contacts and messages won't work without a sim has to have one active or not I'm on Verizon so its pointless to try lucky I had art laying around and it vibrates!! This thing is sweet to be cheap!!!

From the watch description:
Smart Sync Function: Can sync with smart phone, downloading phonebook and call history (iOS 4.0+ and Android 2.3+) to the device. When using Android 2.3+ OS, download and install the WiMe NanoSmart APK on the Android device and the NanoSmart will sync with the Android device (Google calendar events, new Gmail notification, call history, phonebook, sent/received SMS).
Have you tried to install WiMe NanoSmart?

I'm on 4.3 AOKP linario I can't say its bougus but the contacts sync but....... With out each and every number having the country code in it it refuses to call or message weird right? Gmail hasn't worked or calendar. I refuse to downgrade for it. I use this to get away with texting and calling at work via mini Bluetooth headset and a beanie lol.

Ant+ Support broken since Android 9?

Hello,
can anybody please confirm that Xiaomi really managed to break Ant+ support in Android 9 (which means they did not test all features before releasing a new update) I cannot get it to work, see screenshot of Ant tester. It used to work under Android 8.1
Does anybody have an idea how to enable Ant+ again?

Same problem!
Have you found any solution?

Unfortunately no. It surprises me how little reaction I get, I reported to Xiaomi, no response yet. Seems customers are ready to accept things like that these days, I feel really sad and angry, since this seems to affect many Android 9 devices. I wish I hadn't updated from 8.1 at all

You are absolutely right!
I'm hoping for a real solution, but for now I'm using a ant+ dongle connected to the phone with otg cable.
There are a lot of thread reporting faulty ant+ support after updating to pie.

Seems to be issue with google, all devices updated to Pie has the issues.

I create issue
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/130862180

Obviously nobody is using ANT anymore these days? I am really surprised to see how few people actually complain, for me it is essential to get back Ant+ support however

It's mainly used by heart rate belts and other sports devices to transfer such kind of data (like heart rate, etc.) to the phone.
