Hmm i guess no one has got this working yet :O
I got an older one from my trinity and works perfectly on my HTC Magic (vodafone version and standard ROM ).
Nothing added.

The exact same one as in the link above? Chrome control panel, etc?
Exactly the same ... in white
When I plug the remote, nothing appears on the phone, no notification.
When I use the music related buttons, the music player doesn't show but an icon appears in the taskbar to show it's playing music.
Green and red buttons to Answer / make calls work too.
Perhaps something related to the Rogers device ?
Mine still plays music through the handset and not through the headphones. And none of the buttons work. This is annoying.. I am surprised there is only a few of us with this thing.. lol.
I think i have tried it on a few differnent roms, and still no luck. I don't see how it could be a hardware thing.. feels like a driver thing. Even if the music doesn't come out of the headphones, there is no way it should still come from the handset!!!

I'm interested on getting this thing to work, too. I'm running cynogenmods 4.0.1 rom on a 32b device from Vodafone germany and I can hear the music in my headphones but the buttonds don't work and the mic does appear to work.

You can search your drivers on the site of HTC.
They will provide you complete drivers. If not possible then you can search it from search engine.

Does the drivers really support android?

I highly doubt this.
The only thing I can foresee is that a lot of these sites selling them are saying they are available late August, so perhaps they are coming out with the same device that does have new drivers for it.
Unless richermartyn has downloaded said drivers and his remote is working perfectly.
I am jealous that some of you actually have part of it working. Nothing on it works for me.
What type of ear buds do you have (that shouldn't even make a difference!). I have some somewhat nice sony ones.

Seems like it's only the 32a/HTC Branded devices that are supported. Got that confirmed from HTC Europe after sending them an email.

Interesting.. I guess that would be my Rogers 32a magic.. but I have a hero rom installed.. hmm. I guess I will flash a rogers rom later and see if they work, and if they do, maybe someone can rip them from it or something..

Well to quote the support they said:
"The headset/rc has not been confirmed working for the HTC Magic but it will apparently work on HTC Branded phones and most definitly not on your Vodaphone magic (32b)"
I'll try to see if those drivers do any good or if they're only for winmo phones.
Edit: Regarding the ear buds, I use a pair of WESC Bongo deltas and they work great with the rc when it comes to playing music and using in call.
Ah I see.. "Has not been confirmed".. neat lol.
Well let me know how it goes.
Maybe they will release something for real.. I am seeing a lot of online stores advertising these things to work with the Magic.
Very weird that it's still working for some people though.. sigh. I've barely used it.. lol.
It's a cyanogen rom issue. Installed the latest stock rom and it worked brilliantly.
I am about to try a stock rogers rom.
It was not working on jacheroski or myhero etc etc.. those are all probably similar anyways though.
Edit: still does not work! lol. Which rom did you install and what phone do you have?

Here's a 32a port of the rom I'm using. It's supposed to be the latest stock rom for the magic and all the buttons seemed to work except the mute button, but that doesn't matter.
I have a german Vodafone Magic with the 32b board.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532902&page=30

and when installing, it seems like you must wipe all your data or the startup can hang on the splash or say that the android process is not running which leads to you having to force close.
For the remote, i'm on a 32B and works perfectly on the Voda stock rom.
Now I just updated with a Hero Rom (Qtek 1.3b).
I will try if it still works.
Edit: Tested on QtekRom 1.3b . Works for calls / volume . The sound is ok thru headphones

yikes, that 32a port won't even flash for me. No signature, and verification failed. gah!
I tried another rogers/ion rom, still no dice.

Do you have the correct recovery ?
Try flashing with Cyanogen recovery. Worked for me on my device.
Edit: I got a reply from another forum member saying that this rc should work on Superhero roms. I although havn't tested that.

I am running Amon_RA's recovery, 1.2.0 I think. Oie.. seems like I will have to do some more flashing when I have time. Too bad it was not easy to figure out files used for this device.
Has anyone seen this video?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlrQtaTH3ZE&feature=related
Person claims they somehow flashed Cyanogen's ROM the flashed Hero Over 1.1 and now you have Dream/G1 with working BT. Has anyone confirmed this is possible, or is this just some garbage?
Thanks.
From what I've read of the bluetooth/hero scenario, it doesn't sound plausible.. but I didn't watch the video cos I couldn't tolerate the repulsive music or the inabality to FOCUS HIS F*CKING CAMERA!!
I also don't see how it's possible to flash hero-over directly over CM, unless hero-over doesn't format the system partition as part of the flash process.. but I'd imagine that would cause all sorts of problems... This smells of horse **** to me, but we'll see if he comes out with a workable process.
Over the course of who knows how long the devs have been able to show bluetooth as on, this however doesn't make it useful if you can't have it connect to anything
I thought as much. Thanks for your input.

The poster of this video claims to have transferred files over it..
i was able to turn on bluetooth a while back on a hero rom .... but u cant connect to anything
people post fake vids all the time...
right now the only solution ive seen is what maxisma posted about flashing the 32a magic spl on the g1 (dont try this unless your super experienced and know what your doing [ie...if you dont know what 32a or spl, you shouldnt even consider it])
He just replied to my request for a process..
mohfuzul12 has sent you a message:

I went to the site and pointed out the fact that no one in XDA has come up with a working HERO in that sense and this guy must have SERIOUSLY brainwashed a few of these kids. One of them started emailing me hate mail and attacking me on Youtube just for questioning the situation.
There's another guy named ItsAnAndroidWorld who's got a video claiming the same thing only he never goes into the bluetooth and tries to turn it on.
I've been reading about using bttest and hcitools to get it working on a HERO rom but i didn't have much luck with HERO Sense. It must only work on a very specific HERO rom.
Yeah, i'm definitely with you guys because i've googled all over for an answer to the HERO rom problem with BT, and there are some possible solutions, but.....i'm not risking bricking my phone just to see if they're right.
Think I've had my phone for about a year now, and had never been able to get the weather working for where I live, I've tried a few different ways and still nothing, so I'm curious to know if anyone in the UK has got there's working and that live in a small/non-major city that isn't listed
thanks for any info
Works fine for me. Don't know what software you are using as you don't say but for the HTC touch ui stuff here's what you need to do:
Either this or this.

Hi all
So I upgraded my friend’s G1 to the Cyanogen Froyo that came out in July, but ever since, she’s experienced deleted texts and sometimes hourly reboots.
I’d like to find a more stable version. Sadly the way these forums are laid out means it’s always very hard to find such info unless you’re already ‘in the know’. So… can someone in that know please tell me what the latest, most reliable version is, if not the one I already installed?
Or at least a way to make it stop crashing…

Thanks. Where would I download it and are there N00B instructions to install it over Cyanogen Mod 6.0 RC2 (July)?

The "most" stable in my opinion is: SuperflyTCBY1.1DSF 2.2 Froyo. Starts with a bit over 80MB internal memory.
Been using approx 2 months with very little problem.
NOTE: Any apps you plan on running on homescreen, leave in internal memory. Runs better, loading widgets, etc.
Would anyone be kind enough talking me through how to install it over Cyanogen?
Also how to install an update of Cyanogen over itself?
Hey guys hav u ever experienced issue like dis:
Mobile internet connection drop and unable to got online or using web browser etc.
It cannot be fixed w/ rebooting.
Now it seems i can use disable/reenable 3G/3G switch and turn on/off 3g connection several time to make this work.
But it is still annoying
Any idea how to fix it?
Im using the latest firmware, radio, stuff: 11.11.1
btw the gmail search doesnt work either after 8107 update which said by MSFT wud fix this issue, any1 hav the same issue?
I can't find the switch 2g/3g switch!? lol
Don't have any other issues though!
Omnia 7 - originally on T mobile but now using unbranded ROM on Three.
Same problem here. The gmail search on server bug is really annoying!
I'm having the same problem as of today, my mobile data connection has dropped. I've tried rebooting, switching to airplane mode, re-enabling/disabling 3G/E multiple times. But the issue remains.
On proximus (belgium) with DFT rom
- Use the Diagnosis app
-Open up the Diagnosis app.
-Dial this (to enable autoconfigure sim setting): *#94765#
-It will ask you to restart the device. Confirm that.
Same problem here too. I was afraid it was my device..now i see almost all omnia 7's got this problem. No fix from samsung. Nice.
I've had issues with this for months. In fact since upgrading to Mango.
It's not hardware as I now have a warranty replacement and this one has the problem too. My sister also had hers replaced under warranty for the same issue and the issue remains for hers too.
I started a MS Answers thread months back but MS have ignored it... may as well add your voices though. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp7-wppics/data-connection-problem-since-mango-update/1544a63f-7bf0-43fa-837c-7e89f10b86ab

Can anyone confirm/unconfirm if this works? Getting really sick of this now. Restarting was fixing it, but now nothing. I'll add my views to your thread.
Had the data issue for months, it was so bad i stooped using the device.
Then as in old windows mobile i decided to flash another rom witch included another radio from another carrier, in this case a french one, well it did work ,then i could use the phone everywhere.
I cant tell you the rom version at the moment because i got a test roam loaded, but i can certainly find out later.
edit..
The rom was Mango fro sfr france.
you mean that flashing another rom fixed ur problem?
Can u post a link to the rom itself, please?

Yup, it has fix it.
I got it from HERE
Before that i could not do anything over 2/3g.
Now it works just fine.
One thing i remember, the device will boot in French, but you can change to English after in the control panel.
Before doing anything make a Device backup!
edit...
my radio hardware version is 0.0.0.800
radio software version 2424.11.9.1
Currently using the above radio with a custom rom v 24.24.11.9.4 and no problems with data.

can confirm that it doesn't work - sadly :-( - It has the effect of setting the switch in Network profile app (something you only get in unbranded ROMs by default..
BTW there is a thread on this in the Omnia 7 general forum
I had the same issue also but after using Healthcliffs fix 3g.xap my problem went away.
