does anyone know of any universal remote programs that work on the 6800?

Unfortunately, they don't work on the Titan. I believe it's because the IR is too weak.

my guess is its the cpu, but you could be right... novii remote wont even load, and another i tryed just wont detect the IR signal at all

In addition to most software simply not supporting the configuration for the 6800, the range of the device is at most 2-3 feet.

i find it hard to believe that htc would downgrade since the MDA. the MDA would reach 10' no problem...

I've spent countless hours on this, forget about it.

Me too... I read that someone made it work but the Mogul has to be at 10cm from the TV. Seems that the IR signal is too weak

like i said before, i still cant believe that htc would downgrade from 3 years ago. i would think that if they bothered to add it it would be at least functional...
one way to find out the range is send a file through IR to another cell, but my mda dont work no more, broke the mini usb port. but my friend has a 6800 that i should see this weekend, if i can send her a file further than 10cm then i wont believe that person did get it to work.
i think its all hardware issues that the programmers havent got around to issuing

You know the only reason htc includes IR beams are for real estate professionals. I don't ever use it and even for the people that beam files back and forth bluetooth is much quicker and more reliable. The IR on devices like these and the treos unlock boxes on doors with keys to houses that are on the market with a special real estate software with a 128 bit encryption.
