I have a Sipix Pocket Printer A6. Since upgrading to WM2003, I seem to be unable to use it with my XDA via IR. Does anyone have a similar experience and/or solution? Could it be that I need new updated drivers, and if so is there a place I can download them?
As usual, your useful comments are highly appreciated.
i have the same printer, and it works fine!
at first i had the same problem too, not sure how it got fixed...
but make sure IR auto-receive is off.
if that dont work, try pocketprintce.
email me if still cant fix it.
hi everybody
i recently bought a GPV1004 stereo car dash, which can play mp4 mp3 dvd & so on
it runs under windows CE 2.x
Does anybody have an idea how to hack it or heard of a forum dedicated on these stuff ?
I'll first try to plug a boot usb key, then a boot SD card (both under windows ce) but I'm hoping some advice before starting...
thanks !
absolutly nobody interested in these devices ?
it definitely sounds interesting id love to try some sort of programming for something like that where did you get the stereo?

Hi D-mann !
I see u made what i wanna do with my GPV1004 from Takara, under WinCE 5.0 also
so what's the manner to have access to the desktop of the WinCE ?
I am also interested in finding out how to hack into my WinCE 5.0 2 Din unit. Done my HD with the help of the xda site, now want to try this thing in my van !
Im also interested. Ive been looking at getting one of these units.
Also do you know where i can find alternative dash software? That does all the same things but just with a nicer GUI

btw thats my thread on it.
Is there any app out there that would allow me to use my magic, as a webcam..??
I have found a new one called qik... but this only posts videos to a site..
I need something that would appear on my pc as a webcam.
any chance someone cud develop something like this!?
You can test Qik (available on Market) or www.qik.com
It's not exactly a webcam but it's a live video from your phone

He actually tested QIK already. But that's is not exactly what he's looking for. I've been looking for this also, to use the phone USB connected to the PC as a webcam that you can configure in any IM software. I haven't found any way to do this, so it's more like a request for the devs!! don't know if it's not a big challenge for them, but there's a lot of threads asking for this.
A WiFi webcam would be nice instead of an USB one.
Can any developer help??
qik is fine but it does not do what I am after.
I need something that is recognised as a normal webcam.
Windows mobile has an app called mobiola that is a client and server type thing... with the server being installed on the pc, and the client on the phone.
Wifi connection would be good as well as usb.
Can a developer help??
so i would like this too. i did find this but its NOT for our phones
Motvik has recently released a product called WWIGO (Webcam Wherever You Go), it turns your Bluetooth enabled camera phone into a wireless webcam which can be used with any application on your computer.
its not for our phone but it shows that this has been done be for on another phone. so maybe some great coder could make a app for us
just thought i would share what i found.
bump!!!!!!1
Yeah this has been done before for Windows Mobile. I'm sure it'll get here eventually.
that would be cool, but the camera of magic is soooo bad... i'd rather buy a high quality webcam, they're not that expensive anymore.

Hy I have a Kaiser and I would know if there is the possibility to connect my smartphone to the Tv with this cable:

I also see some post of xda and I see some thread talking about some software or drivers for the settings of tv out:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419391
and also for the htc diamond:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412350&page=20
could it be possible to do also on Kaiser??
(it's my first thread and I''m sorry for my english )
could someone help me??
The Kaiser does not have the necessary hardware for TV out, so even with all the necessary cables and software, it still won't work.
ok
thanks a lot
Are there any bluetooth controllers currently compatible with the SGS?
I know I can use the Wii controller, but I don't have a Wii, so that idea probably isn't best.
Thanks in advance.
not really an answer to your post, but...presumably either way you'd also have to buy a Bluetooth controller so it's probably just as easy to pick up a Wii one?
I would prefer something a little more portable and cheaper if at all possible
From what i've seen, the Wiimote is not working on the i9000 yet.
Correct me if i'm wrong please. (And seriously, this time i want to be wrong)
If you can get a Wii controller working, shout me - I've been trying since I got my Galaxy with every different firmware/update combination - it's a no go at the moment.
Ryan Frawley replied to an email I sent saying it's down to samsung's bluetooth drivers being modified as compared to the standard Android drivers.
As I was writing this post, I checked my mail to look up Ryan's reply, and found a reply from Samsung to a mail I sent a few days ago (last friday I think). I will post the conversation in it's entirety here, I hope the employees at Samsung do not mind, as I do quote this without permission:
Hello, and thank you for your time.
I have a question regarding connection of HID devices and, in particular, the WiiMote (Nintendo) to the phone, through applications available through Google Market.
Applications (such as 'Wii Controller IME' from Ryan Frawley) using bluetooth to cennect to certain HID devices appear to be unable to connect to the bluetooth drivers (the application fails to connect, and does not appear to be able to get as far as searching for the device).
Are there any plans to update/fix the bluetooth drivers to address this issue in upcoming firmware updates?
Does the upcoming Android 2.2 (FroYo) update address the issue, and should we so wait until the release of the 2.2 update?

Reply:
With regard to youremail, these are questions that need to be
redirected to Android, as we do not make the applications that connect
to the Wii-mote, and also have no information on the Froyo upgrade.
I hope this has been of someassistance to you. If you do have any
further queries, please do not hesitate to contact us quoting your 210-
reference number.
Kind Regards

My reply:
hank you for your reply to ref# XXXXXXXXXX.
I will try and contact Android customer service to expand on the query, but I have some more questions I would like to ask to clarify the situation:
- you state that Android is responsible for the applications which connect to the Wii remote. However, the Android version which is installed on the Galaxy will have been researched and developed by Samsung's own technicians.
The applications on the market are capable of connecting to the Wii remotes (and other bluetooth devices) on other Android devices - yet all applications have issues connecting through the bluetooth drivers on the Galaxy. Indeed, I have yet to find even a standard HID device which connects to the Galaxy successfully.
By it's very nature, Android is open sourced - anyone with technical know how should be able to view the internal workings of the operating system and (often in an attempt to fix problems like this) edit the underlying files.
It appears that the bluetooth drivers (along with all hardware drivers on the Galaxy), as supplied by Samsung are not open sourced. Nor do they adhere to the standards which applications on the Android market are able to connect to bluetooth.
This in turn points at problems with the Galaxy, and/or it's bluetooth drivers, which are, of course, designed and supplied by Samsung.
Please, if possible, can this issue be escalated to a technical team - I understand the issues of getting a problem raised within a multinational company; I work for one myself and deal with such issues on a daily basis.
I would greatly appreciate your help in dealiing with this issue, and getting help in raising it to the correct team/department to have the issue resolved, if it is at all possible.
Again, thank you for your time,

As usual, I don't expect much to come from this to be honest - my previous experience with this kind of query tells me that it'll get shoved under the carpet relatively quickly.
We'll probably be waiting until a proper Cyanogen ROM turns up, or someone gets either Ryan Frawley to patch up the application side (though I'd much rather the bluetooth drivers were standardised to begin with).
PS: Anyone tried a zeemote, mini bluetooth keyboard yet? I'm tempted to throw £30 or so on a keyboard/zeemote combo but I would like to know if it's something that will work out of the box or not.
I feel the need to bump this thread, since I'm so in need of this functionality.
Well, I got an update from Samsung. This sounds very promising, I hope they follow through with what they've told me:
Thank you for contacting Samsung Electronics regarding your mobile phone.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay in responding to your enquiry.
With regard to your email, this issue has been passed to our development team and has been raised with Head
Office as well. There is a solution in development and will be forthcoming shortly.
Please keep checking the website for updates on this issue.
I hope this has been of some assistance to you.

Raised with Head Office? Hmmm...
What about connecting a PS3 official keypad (the one you attach to the PS3 controller) to the SGS? It would be useful to use in games like Quake 2 and 3, that need a physical keyboard to play. Has anyone done this? I have tried and have been unable to get it working.
The SGS can see the keypad, can pair, asks for the password but fails to connect.

That's the problem with most devices - the SGS will see the device and it's MAC address when scanning, but won't connect. Usually "0000" gives a very quick refusal, where anything else (the only way I've found to enter a blank PIN is to enter a digit then delete it) gives a rather long wait with "Connecting" then a message telling you it failed to connect.
Most 3rd party apps don't work either, though I've had success with the GamePro app NZTechFreak used - it's the only app I've found on the SGS up to now that does work with bluetooth. I'm pretty confident KeyPro from the same company would work, but I don't have a compatible keyboard to test.
Up to now, i've tried:
Wii remote/classic controller (original) - SGS sees controller, will not pair
Bluetooth "I-Tom" keyboard (ebay) - Despite coming with android drivers, does not work. Same symptoms as other controllers, third party app does not detect nor connect to controller.
Datel Wii Classic Controller - same as Wii controller
Zeemote - Works with GamePro drivers. Zeemote does not pair directly with SGS, it's all handled through the GamePro IME drivers/settings
I'd like to see if a PS3 controller pairs successfully, but from what you've said I doubt it very much
e: The app in the post above only has support for some very specific keyboards. By all means try it, I tried each one on my itom keyboard but nothing worked.

Samsung has released 2.2 but still does not work.
Samsung has also released the source for many of their phones.

It would be great to get this fixed.
