I have seen several post stating IR not working, IR working with this fix, etc..

I need to know if IR works with any of the latest roms.

I am running DCD 3.0.1 after I installed Sprint Rom so I have latest radio. Im on Alltel if that matters but doubt it. I have a Application that renews security on Electronic keys for work that uses the ir port, connects to server via phones evdo and reauthorizes the keys for the next 24 hours.

So I need to get that program working somehow. I have never installed it before yesterday so I haven't had a chance to test on other roms. Thought I'd ask here for I beat my head against the wall trying different things.

What works?? Any Roms?

Thanks

Brad

from 3.35 stock OEMDrivers rgu:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Obex]
"IsEnabled"=dword:1 ; After coldboot, device setting both are correct, but enable/disable beam item can not work on AKU19181

You will need to change this reg key back to IsEnabled=1 in order for IR to work on my rom.

thats basically a comment from htc saying IR is screwed up in wm6.1, and their registry workaround for it, by leaving obex always enabled. i have not tested but supposedly you just have to manually set that reg key.

To clarify something. I have used your ROM's before and all I had to do to enable OBEX was to enable it in the bluetooth settings and Also in the Commanager for those who have BEAM as a setting.

Usually the 6-10 Commanagers have this option.

I know because before OBEX wouldn't work until I enabled it in the Commanager.

You don't need to enable it in the registry only if you wan't to have it enabled 24/7 but if you only use it here and there just enable it from the Commanager, this saves up battery life.

You can test it also by enabling it in Commanager and going to the registry and you will see that it changes the Value from 0 to 1 once you refresh it.

Still having issues with this. the enabling in the prefs everywhere and in the registry just changes the checked value in the bluetooth settings. My bluetooth works perfect. no qualms there about anything. But my IR is still not doing a thing.

Thats a trip. What carrier ROM are you guys using? Maybe the issue is carrier based.

I have Verizon and havent had any issue so far with DCD's kitchens or ROMS.

How are you guys testing your OBEX / IR connections?

im on the alltel flash. currently on DCDs newest. bluetooth is an easy test of course, just sending files from my comp and using the PAN. as far as IR, i have a machine at my alltel retail store that uses ir to send files to phones, it will send to every phone except mine. my girlfriend has a 6700, stock, and it wont let me use the ir to send anything to hers or to recieve anything from hers

do you have the allow incoming beams tab enabled? how about making your device visible?

I tested mine with my old moto Q and it works.... I wonder if there is a flaw in alltel's ROM.

I'm running DCD 3.0.1 - Sprint and IR is broken. I tried all of the suggestions but it refuses to see anyone to send to or receive from. I test it using my laptop which worked fine with the official ROMs.

Yeah I agree... I think i might just have to go to an official rom...plus better battery life, though I love dcd rom man!!!!

UPDATE

after reviewing my result. I didnt fully test it out completely.:eek: lol.

I tried sending something to my moto Q through IR and it finds it and sends but it cuts the tranmission. It doesn't send through all the way so i guess it doesn't work after all.:eek:

For those on Sprint you guys might luck out in a couple of months when Sprint officially releases WM6.1 for the Mogul.

This release might fix all the issues that have been found (hopefully since they will release a newer build of WM6.1)

And even better, we can share the love among all the TITAN users.
