Any suggestion for a universal remote software?

[ganglion5]

I've been trying to find a universal remote program that's compatible with the prophet. So far, I can't find anything. I tried the latest Novii, and the IRDA remote II. But it doesn't seem to be compatible. Does anyone have any success?

I'mstill searchin for it. did you find anithing working ?

[ganglion5]

No, I haven't found anything. I wonder why the IR in the prophet is that different from the rest of the current pda's, especially from something like the wizard. It seems like every program out there thinks it's not compatible with the prophet. I wonder if it's just a hack away from fooling these programs to think it's compatible.

Any news on this issue? Does anyone at least know of a reg hack or something to fool these programs (eg, novii, etc) into thinking the IR is compatible?

I tried Novii remote when I had a magician and found that the IR was too feeble to work at any sensible distance. I've not bothered to try it on my prophet yet as the web site does not mention WM5 compatability.

[ganglion5]

Unless they updated the software, but I tried novii a few months ago, it was still incompatible (the program launches but says they don't recognize the built in IR. I know that these non-consumer IR are useless in terms of distance, but sometime I just want a working remote even if it's right in front of the TV or vcr (b/c some of the machines I have don't even have a remote). So if anyone can find a software that at least thinks the prophet IR is compatible, that's a start.

wow, and is it really possible?

The relatively new version 4 of the novii remote deluxe is compatible to the QTek s200 (HTC Prophet or XDA Neo).

But I'm still not able to get it to work. It freezes right after choosing the "Flip screen" properties.
Maybe someone has a suggestion?

You are completely wrong as NoviiRemote IS compatible with WM5. You can see it on product page at www.novii.tv/pocketpc/deluxe, chek 'compatibility' option on the right.

I didn't have such a problem, but why wouldn't you contact Novii's support team? They are quick to respond.

crazy...
I've just tried it again after I've tried it several times two days ago, with the same install-file and now it works... o_O


Really very curious...
Now it's freezing again just when starting the application. I've nothing changed...

It seems that this application is a very, very unstable one.

It seems it's just a beta version, so I guess it may be a problem. Have you got an answer?
