reply soon people
it works with xda2 with 2003 on not sure if it's working on 2005
Yes it does work in 2k5 but only from the distance of about 1m. Novii Remote is the only prgram I know of that works on the XDA II. The XDA's beam was somewhat more powerful.
the program work on my tv set. however i have trouble teaching the program to learn new device that is not in the list. i have no experience using this software before. so i can't really say what's the real problem.

On the advice of some people here, I bought a Targus IR keyboard, and was disappointed to see it doesn't work right on WM 2003. I put it on my i-mate, no luck (it actually repeatedly soft-reset my i-mate), then on my old T-Mobile Pocket PC, and it doesn't work (WM 2003, 4.0.5), downgraded my T-mo back to 3.14 and it works fine.
Does anyone else have one of these working on WM 2003?
Yes. See review here:

still searching
The review really didn't tell me anything new.. i'm still looking for a way to get this thing working on the XDA or XDA II with Windows Mobile 2003.

Targus won't work with my XDA
I have bought a Targus Universal wireless keyboard on the strength of people on this forum saying it works.
I can not get it to work with my XDA I. I tried the latest driver from targus. I even got rid of my custom cooked ROM and put a standard O2 UK ROM on.
When I enable the keyboard my XDA slows down so much it becomes unuseable. If I tap for the start menu it takes about 5 seconds to appear and everything else is just as slow. The XDA does not register anything if I press any keys on the keyboard. Even if I then use the program to disable the keyboard my XDA is to slow to use unitl I do a reset.
Can anyone help as I really don't want to have to try and return the keyboard.
Thanks
Stuart
That slowing down feature is the same as when you try to choose the irda port when using tomtom, I understand its to do with the xda not setting up a virtual port and addressing the port direct, I am no expert and have asked numerous questions about the irda port on xda but never got any answers, on the ipaq the irda shows up as "generic irda" and works great, however on xda it shows as "infrared port" or similar, when a program attempts to acces it the slow down/crash happens.
anyone can advise on less bulky keyboard for XDA I ....
(in ideal world I would additionally say) that works on WM2003
any ideas ??

Targus IR Keyboard with XDA1 + ROM 2002 NOT OK (Different Rom Versions)
Targus IR Keyboard with XDA2 + ROM 2003 NOT OK (Different ROM Versions)
Targus IR Keyboard with XDA1 + ROM 2003 OK. Tested by me with latest Tmobile RUU 4.01.00 and IRKeybd Driver Ver 1.25
thanx for the clarification but can you advise also on .....
something in terms of keyboard that is smaller that is working on WM2003 pls ???
regards
monika
As for the IR keyboard, I only tested Targus, which is somewhat bulky, as you say, but works with XDA 1 and WM2003 (Latest ROM version T-Mobile 4.01.00)
As for standard keyboard (with normal XDA connector, not IR) I have tested the G7B0 which is much slimmer and had no problems at all. It also has a plus: you can charge your XDA while connected to the keyboard with your normal standard charger and the keyboard itself does not need batteries, like the IR ones.
As for the Minus, compared to the Targus one, you will be missing: the emulated mouse, but then..., you are asking for a keyboard, not a mouse
thank you for your input
I might consider give it a try
regards, monika
I upgraded to the latest 4.01.00 ROM and indeed the Targus keyboard now works like a dream.
I had put of upgrading to WM2003 as I tried a while back and could not get GPRS working (O2 UK). This time I have managed to get it working but it does seem slower don't know why.
Thanks for your help
Stuart
you're most welcome :wink:
Ok i just Upgraded the SX56 to the new WM2003 OS.
Since i have not tested the iMate/XDAII, my question is are they the same? Himalaya inside, Wallaby outside?
Info on my tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=7617
Some questions about the OS as well since i am new to the PPC platform:
Is there a way to assign pics to contacts for caller ID like the sony ericsson T610?
Can you guys recommend some cool/ must have, softwares/applications/games for the PPC device? Anything that you feel is worth mentioning would be good! Thanls!
Regards,
Taimur
SX56 + WM2003 = garbage!

Contrary to your comments the SX56 is running way better than my expectations! i have been using various softwares on it and it runs very well
Even using it as a universal remote for my TV/DVD/Hometheater etc.
Phone ringing is finally audible
Phone and contacts list is much more interactive.
reception is bleeding good!
Onboard 32mb sux but i am using the 256mb SDcard anyways so no compains there.
Battery time is awesome
colors are dull
no cam and no blue tooth but for the price i just cant complain! $350 and its not network locked.
So what garbage part am i missing?
it's not garbage :wink:
You can cook your own rom, I haven't seen any rom kitchens for XDA 2...
I like the universal remote part too. The XDA 2/MDA 2/imate don't use consumer ir =\
All you have to do is get a bluetooth SD card or a wifi card, and then overclock the device to 300 MHz
I like the universal remote part too

hhmmm i always found it kinda useless that i could use my xda1 as a remote when placing the xda1 30cm in front of the tv or stereo
that was it's range
Thanks!
Thnaks man the Blue tooth does sound sweet! got any brands that you wanna recommend? i am searching but i cant find one that will be concealed once in the slot. the one i saw had antennas etc. on em. Maybe i am looking at the wriong place.
Overclock haha! no i aint going there!!! I have a box of 11 CPUs that i fried so i dont think i can get a replacement if i fry the XDA cpu.
cheers!

It does work well for my Philips TV and DVD, which i operate from my bed, but i have the same issue with my Panasonic Theatersystem, for which i have to sit up and extend my hand
my tv is philips aswell and it only worked at a range of 30cm
about bluetooth and wifi then you cant use sdIO cards in a xda1
and no wifi or bluetooth cards i've seen can work without that

30 cm is nothing !! even my Newborn baby is 48 cms the foot of my bed is probably about 4 feet away from the TV so i am using it at atleast 5+ ft or more distance. It could be the software that you are using. The forst Universal Remote that i tried failed to work saying reinitilaising obexchange please soft reset for changes to take place. second one would work right after learning then crashed. the one from pdawin.com works fine for me. makes me extend occasionally though but works!
Hi All,
I was just wondering if anyone has tried any remote control software on the Atom and if so, how did it work? Is the iR strong enough to use as a remote. Thanks in advance for your help.
Todd
I thing IR on Atom is not useble (IR on the right side, not on the top)
the best power IR was in Ipaq2210 :wink:
It's useless with direct IR, just like most PPC's. What you can do is to use NetRemote with a computer with IR blaster (like the USB-UIRT). Look at www.promixis.com and you'll see the solutions.
I workd very well on my MDA Compact so it should work even better on atom. Use NoviiRemote, it is almost designed for the pocketpc!
ive found it to be totally useless ...
it works fine but has no range
2 meters is about its limit on all devices i have tried
it is however reliable and works properly at short distances

I used Noviremote trial version (15 days free use) and it worked fine within 3 metres range to control my TV, Sat receiver, but did not find the software useful enough to buy the progem after the 15 day trial. You can find some choices here: http://www.pocketpcmag.com/awards/category_WandF_2005.asp?catid=45#TVandStereoRemote

i installed NoviiRemote Deluxe on my Atom Exec but i'm not happy with it cuz the range is so limited, about a little more than 1 foot, and that's practically useless. this software had worked great on my O2 XDA Mini, though.
You can improve the range by attaching a magnifying lens to the IR port.. Someone had tried it on some other forum. But the trick is to get a lens small enough to stick it on to the IR port.
This may be the wrong forum, but all the geniuses hang out here. As we know smartphone lacks word mobile, but in theory there is no reason why it would not run, and also run well without a touch screen.
I manage to install Textmaker to the Windows Mobile Smartphone emulator. It runs fine, but does not provide for one-handed usage.
Is it possible to rip word mobile from a pocketpc ROM and make it installable on smartphone OS? Devices like the Samsung i320 and Moto Q would definitely benefit.
Anyone ambitious enough for this task?

Looking for Bluetooth keyboard recommendations.
Tried a Freedom with an old blackberry I had (way back when), but didn't function very well.
Seriously doubt it would work with my SGS2, but I'll give it a shot once I'm back in the office.
Anyone have any experience?
Foldable or compact is a bonus
Best I've tried so far is the HP Touchpad Bluetooth Keyboard. Works great with any and all android, iOS, and other Bluetooth devices.

No luck with my original freedom.
No drivers to load with android.
Anyone else have any luck with the modern Freedom keyboards?
Road whore that needs something a bit more compact....
Logitech DiNovo Mini works perfectly with the SGSII. I use it esp when I have my phone plugged into the TV. Works perfectly.
I use a cheap microsoft bluetooth keyboard. Not exactly portable but it gets the job done.
I have one of these:
http://www.amazon.com/Original-Bluetooth-Wireless-Keyboard-Touchpad/dp/B004723V1M/ref=sr_1_27?ie=UTF8&qid=1320187017&sr=8-27
This works great with the SGS2 as well as any computer with BT and also the Playstation 3.
The mousepad will even give you a cursor on the SGS2 screen.
Even has a built in laser pointer.
Pay close attention to the pairing procedure as it is a little tricky.
Atrix Bluetooth Keyboard Works
This keyboard works great except that when you press SHIFT to capitalize a letter, it stays locked until you type another letter and backspace over it. I'm thinking of returning it. Otherwise, it's nice to have all the dedicated keys for Android on the keyboard.
Did u have to do anything special to connect ur hp keyboard, because mine pairs but wont connect. Any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I have the HP as well, works perfectly with our phone. Now here's the bad.news it won't connect at all on 2.3.6 custom.or stock firmware. Bluetooth hid is broken it's not just the keyboard but mouse or anything else Bluetooth.hid. You can always revert back to.any 2'3.4 rom and it will be fine. Now.if for some reason your on.2.3.4 and can't get it to connect let me know and I'll trouble shoot it with you. Mine pairs also in 2.3.6 but it can't connect because no bthid
