hi! before my tytn i had nokia smartphone and i had program for bluetooth remote control. (control freak) now i have tytn, but i can't find good program. i need program, that controls winamp quickly and smooth. there are many winamp plugins, but they are very, very buggy and connects 1 per million. my old control freak connects for 2 seconds, the connection in strong and it had desktop control (the desktop screen appeared on my nokia)
so please i need such a program for partys and for comfort.
10x, very much!
I'm looking for something similar...
(on my Nokia, I was using Puppetmaster; but while there are .jar and ppc clients, I can't get them to work)
Jörg
I'll publish a BIG roundup on all these questions very soon (as did I with "full" remote control solutions - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1092389 ) - stay tuned
Oh my, i loved control freak. It's an excellent prog with sexy GUIs. right now i'm using RemoteAmp for my PPC, not bad but it runs over wifi. Or you could run it over EDGE/GPRS/3G. Overall it's great, it GUI isn't that sexy, but it's workable.
Puppetmaster allowed one to control different programs (WinAmp, Zoom Player, Media Player, Powerpoint, Acrobat, ...) and allowed one to add scripts to get support for other non-natively supported softwares.
I'm currently actually still using my old Nokia as a remote (I kept it as a backup device)...
Jörg
PuppetMaster is great ("fantastic" is the word ), but I wish the developer would continue the development...
Perhaps this is an option:

Anybody found a good application that works well as a bluetooth remote control for Windows Media Player or winamp or divx?
I use Salling Clicker, it does pretty much all you ask but unfortunately it's not free.

Hi everyone,
As you're on the subject, I've just release version 0.6.0 of Bluetooth Remote Control for Windows Mobile, which now supports Windows Vista and Windows Media Center.
Get it here : http://www.jaylee.org/remotecontrol
Have fun !

Jaylee1024,
Up till now, I haven't been able to test your software, as I'm using a Widcomm stack on my PC's...
I'm about to reinstall my system, and before installing Widcomm, I'll give your software a test (given the bluetooth features I use, the MS stack may suffice for me).
But I have found a software (Altiris SVS) that might be used to allow switching between both bluetooth stacks, so I'll also see if/how that goes...
Jörg
I use PPC tablet. It is not that good looking but easy to use. You have different profiles for different programms and you can make your own profile realy easy.

Thanks VJ, I've had reports that some latest version of the Widcomm stack might do the trick, but if you could keep me posted on your tests, I'd be interested too
Thanks !

I second this. I've used it on my 7610, 6682 and now my 8525. It's fantastic. Plus you can control with either bluetooth or wifi

Apparently, that utility can't really be used to swap bluetooth stacks. But I now have the weird situation where both WidComm and MS Bluetooth stack are active at the same time . I'm not sure what this is doing to the stability of my system though , or if both effectively work, so I'll need to test some things first.

Hi again,
I have in stalled the latest Salling CLicker 3.0.1.347, but when prompted to setup my device i am unsure which to choose. The choices are:- http://www.salling.com/Clicker/windows/devices.php
I have tried WM5/Smartphone and a few Dopod ones (I have a Dopod 838Pro) and when I open Salling Clicker on the phone i get "Fatal Error Service Unavailable most likely cause is incompatible device or faulty installation".
Has anybody successfully set it up?
Cheers, hawsktf
Handset requires rebooting after installing Salling Clicker... It's all good
Also, don't forget to check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294524 - it's the long-promised roundup.
Does anybody out there have, or know where to find some Salling Clicker scripts for Hermes?

works quite well infact i reckon if i mess with my routers port forwarding i could access my pc from anywhere in the world

yes is called clicker but you need to install server software on your windows machine
http://www.salling.com/Clicker/windows/
I don't think there is such a thing for wm. My wife has a SE so I know what you mean - it is quite effective. It is a bluetooth profile not a piece of software. We don't have that profile unfortunately.

Mobile remote is awesome. I have used since it was out and decided to buy it right away.
It connects to my pc in about 2 seconds and I can start using it right away. I love not having to get up to pause my media player .
I can't believe that haven't provide this asROM incorporated application... If K800i have it.. why X1 doesn't....
Is there any free app of this sort.. that support BT HID protocol?

By the way, comparing the K800i to the Xperia is like comparing apples and pears
Just tried Mobileremote - seems to be a bit screwy landscape/portrait are reversed and the hardware keyboard has permanent numlock on when used on X1
still just about usable though
You're right... but on my old K800i BT HID protocol worked for free... and perfectly well ..

Coming to Windows Mobile after being a longstanding Sony Ericsson feature phone user, it's really surprised me how truly COMPLETE the SE ui was! It had SO many great tools built right in that Windows Mobile even struggles with, and it's a smartphone OS! I could be happy if they just made the SE A200 interface touch-enabled (a nice qwerty maybe ), because I miss so many nicely implemented features they had!
i would suggest using this:
http://www.jaylee.org/RemoteControl/
it's free and it let's you control most media applications and what's cool about is it that it allows you to use the x1 touchscreen as a touchpad of a notebook computer to control the mouse pointer and tap to left click. unfortunately it cannot right-click. it doesn't accurately input the proper characters either while using the physical keyboard, but the onscreen keyboard works just fine with it.
Greetings,
I ve heard that bluetooth was kind of locked for HTC Hero,and you was unable to send - receive files with it.Anyone tested it?Maybe what i've heard was just for the beta version that sites had for review.
Huh? You really cant use bluetooth to transfer files in Android!
unless you use some 3rd party apps..
and i also want to know if it is working..
there is a free app in the market:
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-androbex-activity-jBFm.aspx
No, Android OS does not support file transfer yet. It only supports HFP and A2DP. thei si the same on all 1,5 devices by samsung as well.
Google haven't programmed it into teh OS yet, and so you need some third party stuff. some work some don't, but native support in android is coming in a later update, either 2.0 or later.
Thanks for replys.This is kinda basic for a phone,isn't it? :S
Irispen is this app you ve linked working Ok on Hero?

im 80% sure since hero is android 1.5..
not 100% sure because no one is confirming it.
Hero
Looks like it's 1.5
being that 2.0 is nowhere near being released, of course it is.
yeh the hero is 1.5.
It does not support file transfer just like the iphone.
If you have a rooted phone you can do this by downloading the bluex app off marketplace.
That allows you to transfer over bluetooth
bluex doesnt work dont waste ur money!!

Blues does not work on the HTC Hero or Donut builds...or any other bt transfer apps on the market as of right now!
Also every developer ive contacted in regards to these bt apps have not responded so i went ahead and refunded the money!
Isthe bluetooth problem with HERO fixed with the 2.0 firmware?
I wanted to buy the HTC HERO for my birthday and when I heard that it doesn't have blue tooth file transfer I was shocked. is it true that it doesn't support file transfer?
if yes is this the problem with the 1.5 android?
have they fixed it on the 2.0 firmware?
because they offer the 2.0 download on the HTC site. I wanted to know if it supports file transfer with blue tooth, I would get it then update it to the 2.0
please let me know. thank you

Don't mix up things ...
You can transfer files from PC to Hero over USB, no problem. Currently with Android 1.5 it is not possible to do it via Bluetooth.
Android 2.0 is not out yet, I don't know, what you're referring to, but it would take a couple of weeks until we see an official 2.0 release from HTC
And these are the 'official' enhancements for Android 2.0 regarding Bluetooth:
Bluetooth
•Bluetooth 2.1
•New BT profiles: Object Push Profile (OPP) and Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP)
I assume, that the PBAP profile was added by HTC in the Hero_2.73.405.5 ROM, as since I made the update, my Navigon MN|7 Navigation system can access and use Hero's phone book ...
Hello
I am trying to find a way to run some software I have for the pc on an android divice.
I would like to get some car diagnostic software to run which has to be connected to the car through usb to ODB2 port on the car.
Is there and emulator or some such software I can install on the android pad to get this running?
This would be so cool if I can get this running.
I found a stereo with an android 2.1 tab attached which is the screen for the stereo.
Anyway if anyone has any ideas then please let me know.
Thanks
Alex
Short answer: No.
Long answer: If it's DOS application, maybe. But I doubt it'll be able to access any of the device ports. If it's a Windows application, forget it.
Your best bet is to look for similar apps on Android. They DO exist... The market has several apps that read car diagnostics over bluetooth, some might also work over USB. There are bluetooth adaptors available for your ODB2 port.

Citrix? You're kidding, right? Do you even know how Citrix works? It's essentially a kind of remote desktop. The applications don't run on your machine, they run on a server. A server which you have to pay up mucho cashola for and configure correctly.

And even if he had access to Citrix XenDesktop virtualized Windows I don't know if it would allow him to use car service software by connecting OBD2 interface to the tablet. Even if the port I/O could be forwareded to remote machine as a virtualized USB port the latency would make the OBD software very ustable.
Can't tell you about connecting it to the ODB2 port but as for x86 emulation on a arm device:

I mentioned it before, but didn't bother to post any links, not that the OP has bothered to reply, but anyway..
THIS is what he's looking for, with no silly emulation bullpoop.
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=odb2
That took all of 2 seconds to search for...
BTW it is NOT ODB2. It is OBD2 as in On-Board Diagnostics level 2 .
Bleh. The search still worked!
Torque works really well I use it to get codes and you can monitor real time info from all of the sensors attached to your ecu. You can also do data logging. If your trying to run tuning software( like hp tuner or ROMraider) you are prolly out of luck.

Did you actually read the op? Teamviewer is totally useless for this, as is ANY form of remote running application.

Tru dat. Not sure what I was thinking when I posted that....I think my mind was just stuck in the subject line and not the meat of the post.
How about the upcoming Windows 8? Will it support our A500?
No.
How did we stretch "no" into two pages?
