Hi!
Have you tried it out yet? I sow some people complaining about software compatibility, that it only let you control Windows Media Player. Does anybody know if this remote let you control the HTC AudioManger application, as this is a much better MP3 player than the old WMP.
Regards,

Dear,
I just take it from this web, and I found It's can used with 2 program
1 is WMP and the other is HTC Audio Manager(but you need install drive that come with package). It's very good smalltalk and remote control but I used p800w It's can't used HTC Audio booster, that made me sad because I like Bass Boost.
Have Any one have Base Boost that can used and work with p800w?
Thanks a lot.

Hi, it sort of works. When I got the package, there was a sticker over the supported models - the O2 Xda Orbit was "not" supported. As I had changed the ROM to the HTC generic version, I loaded the drivers and plugged it in. The adapter works, and I can use normal headphones BUT none of the buttons on the remote function with the O2 XDA
The Artemis and the XDA may just be that little bit different (more than just the case) which may be why they put a sticker over the supported models info. By the way, it was sold as an Artemis accessory and not an O2 XDA accessory, so I cant really send it back.
Therefore, if anyone in the UK has an Artemis (not an O2 XDA) and wants the adapter, they can buy it off me for £15 plus postage. It is brand new, used once, in its original box with driver disk. If you want to pay by PayPal, it's £2 extra to cover the fees, otherwise NOCHEX or direct bank transfer.

no, they are the same phone, hardware wise. I have the remote and a O2 XDA Orbit and it works. You just need to install the HTC Audo Driver update for the P3300. Otherwise, the remote won't work when the phone switches off to save power. This stupid bug affects all apps, including in the middle of a phone conversation. I think that is mainly the reason for the audio driver update. I don't have the HTC Audio Manager, anyone know how I can get hold of it?
The remote works with WMP. It also works with the FM Radio app, pressing play mutes it (rather than the mute button on the side), volume control (not the main phone volume) works, FF/FR switches between preset stations.
The green/red phone buttons works even when running other apps like TomTom or TCPMP. But non of the other soft buttons can be mapped to functions in TCPMP or any other program for that matter as they don't exist like your average hardware buttons on the phone itself. So as a result, you can't assign a button to activate Voice Dial or Voice Command.
The other problem is more to do with the new ExtMiniUSB port. I cannot charge the phone while I listen to the radio or mp3s for that matter! Compare to older generations of HTC phones which has a mini usb + separate 2.5mm headphone socket, this is quite stupid as I believe many ppl charge their phone via USB at work and also listen to the mp3s.
Ok, i was wondering why HTC was giving such strange answers about the useless power consumption.
HTC > (there will be no update to solve this, because it is not knowing issue.)???
Its strange behavior in my opinion when the phone wakes up completely after touching one of the buttons and never goes to sleep again. Not even switches the screen off. It uses more energy that way.
I’ve made a application for this problem just to switch the screen completely off after using the buttons on the remote. It runs in the background and waits for a change in the SystemPowerState. When the backlight dims it will switch of the screen after 1 second.
I can’t prevent the device from waking up but this works good enough.
Next step is to hook in to the remote interface driver and make the buttons act like normal devicebuttons so it would be possible to use another MP3 player. But I ‘m afraid my knowledge about this is not enough. Maybe someone can help me with that.

Hi,
I downloaded the updated driver from HTC when I got the remote (instructions suggested this) and it made no difference at all.
Oh, Well, it looks nice on the bookcase!

Oh well, sorry to hear that didn't help. I received my remote on the 17th, noticed it didn't work too well even after installing the driver that came with the remote. Then found the news that Audio Driver Update was release on the 16th so I got the download and it worked from then on.
it tries to you works in stereo
Works fine
I'm been using the rc for 2 weeks now and one must say it's working exactly the way I expected it to. The only lil hitch is the missing "stand-by" so you waste some amount of battery.
Maybe it's possible to check with a small service whether Audio Manager is running in playback mode and react e.g. with turning of background lights.
I'll give it a try next week in office (need my VS).
Anybody with experience?
wold you recommend one then?

For me it's working without drivers with HTC Audiomanager, WMP and with the FM radio and it's fine to use my own headphones.
HTC's stupid headphone/power socket combo & ultimatum
Dear HTC,
Please, if your are not the appropriate person to be considering my email, pass it on to someone who can adequately able to address my concerns.
Briefly, I am a huge fan of HTC handsets, having been a the proud owner of no less than 5 different models in the last 3 years.
My particular issue is with the HTC TYTN and TYTN II (or Kaiser) models. I am far from alone in this concern, as a simple Google search will reveal, so I am not going to waste time justifying myself. I'll launch immediately into the criticism and the request for an explanation, etc...
2 years ago, my first TYTN had to be replaced after 3 months because the ill-conceived combo-headphone-power mini USB socket became faulty. After 13 months it became faulty again. Since it was out of guarantee, i had to repair it myself. A month later however, when the socket once again broke, I installed a separate headphone socket in the side of the case myself, it was easy... TOO easy...
Since then my original TYTN has been fine.
A few weeks ago, I purchased the new TYTN II or Kaiser. I knew beforehand that the headphone and power sockets were once again the same. However, I assumed that they would have been strengthened due to the bad pres the previous model had received over this issue.
I was sadly mistaken. Within 3 weeks I have had to replace my TYTN II after the headphones started crackling when I moved the headphone cable. After examination, the mini-USB socket is IDENTICAL to the original TYTN,and bending in the same way. I have now stopped recommending this phone to people due to this. Either you don't intent users of this handset to use headphones, or you dont care that the socket isn't up to the job!
Considering that I influence thousands of people through my website in their choice of hanset upgrades, I am sure that HTC will feel the financial blow of my decision, at least slightly.
My questions are as follows:
1.) Why, after all the bad press the initial single connector design got, did HTC decide to do exactly the same stupid thing with the Kaiser (TYTN II)?
2.) Are you prepared to issue me, free of charge, with a a
brand new model, with a SEPARATE headphone socket, for which I will write an article in the magazine I work for singing your praises and recommending your improved Kaiser II, with the separate stereo headphone socket?
I formally give you 7 days to reply to my satisfaction, considering I have spent nearly £1000 with you. Failing to do so will result in a loss of revenue to yourselves totaling at least many hundreds of thousands of dollars/pounds.
Sincerely
Lawrence Bowen
Those with the remote who want to save power when using it as an mp3 player, use MortSaver. basicall you can set it to turn screen off after a predetimend time. Therfore every time you use your remote, it normally turns on the sreen, and never turns off wasting battery whlle its sitting in your pocket.
Mort saver turns if off again after each use of the remote, so you can leave it in your pocket with the knowledge you are not draining you battery.
now Ill I need is some equalizer I can use with Mediaplayer!

Perfect! mortsaver worked for me.
With the attached file you have some kind of equalizer. Your using an equalizer to optimize the sound and this prog. realy does the trick!

Cheers already found this and its on the latest touch 4.01 ROM.
combination with Mortsaver and 8G SDHC card now makes the HTC3300 a very usable MP3 Player
All,
Does anyone use a reliable universal remote application on their s620? Not remote desktop, but rather universal for other electronic devices. I know the iPaq's had an application of sorts packaged at retail. Do we have something like this for ours?
Thanks!
How would you do that, since the S620 don't have IR port?
You wouldn't...For some reason I just assumed the S620 would have IR...since it has almost everything else you could want or imagine....
Well, that answers that quickly Mine's still on it's way, or I might have noticed that

Hi there,i think it would be actually a cool cool solution to try some other brand's speakers...i think by checking the Ohms of the speaker and finding a higher or lower Ohm speaker will help it...but sorry...unfortunately i do not know these stuff well....so i cannot tell....but i tried to attach my old P800's speakers....it infact sounds quite good on my phone....haha
so i think there is some mods there that we can do....also maybe we can add a antenna to the wifi....i think theres lots more to explore with the Atom and Rw6828(my phone)
Or could we put Artemis Speaker to Atom????
Hahaha, it was a silly question,.
just jealous with my brother speaker,. :c
yeah seriously i think this atom series speaker need a lot of improvement coz it's not loud enough. Did somebody ever tried to replace it with other louder better speakers? please share guys...Thx
There is a way
mod small head phones with your atom's speaker cable.
plug them into the atom.
they really works but costs you some power from your bettery.
SPV EV600 (s620) for sale. The earpiece stopped functioning last month. I bought a new one thinking the old one was defective. Replaced it, and i still cannot get sound out of the earpiece.. Not sure what's going on.. I've done a hard reset to set the software back to zero.. and the sound still doesnt come out of the earpiece... all sounds and voice comes through the rear speaker.
As a result I'm wanting to sell this. anyone interested? email me at [email protected] with questions or photo requests. Thanks

OMG, my iphone is seriously going in the bin, this is a different breed of phone in every way, I have just done a 10 min video of A2DP working perfect in my car, the iphone only has partial A2DP so you can't change tracks, pause or adjust volume on the stereo itself this to me was a killer
The Desire just pairs and go's, it's smooth with multiple applications open and scrolling is exactly the same as the iphone, I love the bookmarks page so I can see the website i am visiting like suggested sites in IE8, the music player is as good as my Iphone and my iphone holder in the car even fits the desire nicely so I can watch woops i mean my passengers can watch videos while driving or parked up.
So far i have had little exposure but the experience is very iphoney and this is a good thing as the iphone is smooth as silk and so is this, I will post the video up here in 5 mins, its 600mb so need to compress it and whack it on youtube
Happy days!

Hey there,
Looking forward to the video! Just wanted to say I've been my Desire for a few hours now and it has been growing on me. I think I have it customized the way I like but that will probably change by tomorrow. I'm still getting used to the keyboard but it is very responsive, what really wins it for me is the web performance especially on WiFi.
I'm typing this right now on the desire and it just seems to scream through everything. Will post more impressions soon.

Yeah screams through everything is an understatement, I only had an iphone 3g but loading up all the pictures on this site used to take approx1 min, now it's instant.
I find the keyboard slightly smaller than the iphones so the keys are narrower, think my fingers are a bit too chubby and need to get used to a new keyboard haha..
HEy lucky guys, videos and pics are welcome here !
Cause in France (and other Eur countries) we'll have to wait for 1 week at least to touch our Desire.
So Enjoy but ... think about us and show us your new toy

Yes, so my whole music collection is streamed over bluetooth to the stereo, this is called A2DP and something the iphone could not do properly, even my old N95 was fine but you cannot change tracks on the unit itself when using the iphone.

No you need a car stereo with Bluetooth connectivity, they are fairly cheap £150 for the Blaupunkt one in my Audi

+1 for the MJ video
Quick question...were you streaming off of WiFi?
To answer your questions, some new cars have the ability to A2DP stream bluetooth music, I am not sure about specifics, the MJ video was a youtube vid streamed over wifi I was parked on my drive so still have perfect wifi signal there
The music is the default tunes that come on the phone, they give you 7 or 8

Thanks. Man I can't wait to get mine
I am also concerned about bluetooth functionality with my built in set in the car.
I have a Hero now, and I can only make calls, no music streaming on stock 1.5 nor the legend 2.1 ROM. But I was able to stream music through my laptop and it was flawless.
On the other hand, when I had the Nokia e71 I was able to hear the phone's ringtone through the car speakers - but never tried streaming then. But with the Hero (and previously Tytn II) I only hear the annoying default car ring tone, so is this related to the ability to stream?
on HTC website they have the following specifications for bluetooth in the Desire:
Bluetooth® 2.1 with Enhanced Data Rate
A2DP for wireless stereo headsets
FTP and OPP (object push) for file transfer
Other supported profiles: AVRCP, GAP, GOEP, HFP, HSP, PBAP, SPP, Service Discovery Application Profile
while the e71 has this:
Bluetooth profiles: DUN, OPP, FTP, HFP, GOEP, HSP, BIP, RSAP, GAVDP, AVRCP, A2DP
anyone familiar with these bluetooth profiles and can figure it out?
To the OP - the youtube video looks great, can you let me know where you got the car holder and its model name?
Regarding bluetooth, my car has only a basic factory installed car stereo but am wondering if a A2DP bluetooth interface like the one here would enable me to achieve the same results without me having to buy a new stereo. Is this feasible or is there a cheaper alternative?
117 quid for that adapter is a bit steep a decent stereo is about 150 but it depends what your own one is like, I will post up
the type of holder I got in a sec once I find it, I got.it off eBay
