and choppedG what you said (barely readable) is a complete false statement im afraid.

many developers took months and years to figure such things out and the way hardware is made and the ROM drivers etc... - not everything goes the way you would assume or want.

my 2 cents

have a nice day!

well I got it installed on my qtek 8310 and it works ....

mind you it only worked for one button press then froze my phone and from about 3 inch from the dvd player...but it did work

hmm its just frozen? I told it to learn and now its not doing anything and not reponding?

Guest conan_troutman

yeah it freezes when it hsa to learn but on devices it already know it does work for one button press I got the dvd player to pause then my phone froze and i was close enough to actually press buttons on the player its self but it did work

so wh ever made this needs to keep at it

well its actually the i300 remote app hense why its been taken off due to copyright rules.

I guess the hardwares different but for you to actually get it to do something is really a major leap!

I dont have any of those branded devices on that list so unfortunatley i couldnt do anything!

Hopefully we will see a universal remote soon!

yeh but you've gotta remember that the manufacturers of the devices can sometimes be plain stupid on not providing the specific functions required to do the "coolness" of things.

*looks in the direction of imate*

I noticed that all windows mobile devices, even with PPC like Qtek 9100 with Ti OMAP 850 200 Mhz processor will not be able to use remote control softwares. Samsung i300 uses Intel Bulveder 400 Mhz which is the same as in i-mate jam and many others, therefore remote control can be used on it.

It's not about the procesor , it's about the hardware (infrared port).

The manufacterors (sp?) didn't include specifications on how the iR hardware in our smartphones work.
