Hi All,
I have a quandary!!!!
I would like to be able to remotely control my tp2 while it is sat in its dock connected to my stereo playing music and charging. Ideally via blue tooth or wifi.
In an ideal world, it would be nice if this elusive gadget had a screen showing what was playing, and any incoming caller id info, and associated controls, except, reject, along with the basics for the music, stop, play, skip, volume, etc
I have blue tooth head phones, which work great but to my knowledge (which is very limited) the tp2 will not output through the mini usb at the same time.
Has anyone come across such a beast?
Thanks in advance
there are several programs which let you take over the whole pda control having it's desktop in a window on your computer being able to perform any task there you can on the pda
I would love for something like this as well since I am always using my phones in my truck for either music of movies to keep my son entertained. Does anyone have any ideas if something like this exists. I know that some of the headphones have controls on them but I have not seen an actual remote control for a PDA yeat.
Hi, have a look in here. I think it is exactly what you are looking for.

Just wondering whether anyone else has connected their phone (I have a HD7) to a car kit or similar?
Here's my experience with Parrot Mki9100.
Using the parrot controls:
Most things work. Play and pause work, voice control works either by syncing your contacts to the parrot or by not syncing and then using the phones voice control.
For some reason if you pause the music you cant press play on the parrot kit again, you have to go back into the phone to press play.
Forward and back for tracks works, the skip forward and back doesnt.
Of course you can control from the phone however you want. I'm sad that the promised voice control of the zune interface didnt come through.
But the biggest problem is a slight crackle with the music. It's not a massive problem and I've not used any other devices so it might be that I'm expecting too much of bluetooth a2dp and i'm happy using it like this. But at certain types during songs which have lots of guitar going on you get a crackle.
I was trying to work out if it was the phone or parrot, so i've connected my phone to my laptop, playing music now and the same lovely crackle. Anyone else experienced the same?
Thanks and hope this was helpful to someone
I just connected mine to my car for A2DP as well (Samsung Focus). It streams music fine but my play/pause/skip controls don't work (they did on my WM 6.1 device). I also have the same issue of having to use the phone to resume after a call.
I get the slight distortion as well at HF (just from tweeters). I believe this is b/c A2DP includes compression in the protocol (its not full 20-20k bandwidth). Its only on a few songs for me and something I can live with.
I am experiencing the same thing. However, the bluetooth stack on wp7 is way...way better and works with parrot better than any of the previous wm versions.
Firstly for some strange reason my car will only control the answering of the phone via the Audi buttons at random... not too fussed. But also the audio from the car of the person speaking is really low, I have it turned right up on the car stereo and also on the telephone..
Sooo.. is there any app or hacks that anyone has made that gives you control over the BT stack to change the volume setting past what the side buttons allow?
Another thing is, are there any sites that show the zune marketplace ideally ones with sorting by downloads and rating rather than zunes random sorting of what they want to show us.
Lastly I would pay actually money for an app that allows we to stream my video from my shares in windows media player like i can for my PS3, xbox, N900... I have no idea why they didnt put this feature in there own phone OS...
i've looked around and can't find anything that helps me out. I'm looking for a very small bluetooth media remote for my phone. Something that can fit into the front pocket of my chef coat so i can change songs on Pandora while i work without having to leave the kitchen.
see, i'm a cook and while i'm at work i have my phone plugged into the speaker system in the kitchen. unfortunately, the place i have to plug my phone into is so far away (in the office by the bar, outside the kitchen in the dining room) that if a song i don't like comes on Pandora, i can't skip it without leaving the kitchen (which i can't do, obviously)
does anyone know of a tiny handheld bluetooth media remote that would work for the Atrix? i've found a few but they're all for iphones
Every remote or even BT headset that uses AVRCP shoul work with Atrix
All,
I need some help trying to find a remote control for the phone. I use the phone as my music/pandora player.
As of next month my state of AZ will make it illegal to have people texting in the car so I figured if I have the phone tucked away and just control the music with a bluetooth remote would be cool.
Any help would be great!
Thanks

What about mapping the volume buttons to be used as forward/reverse track? I'd like to do this, but haven't figured out a way...

Please stay on topic of OP. Don't use his thread to re-ask your question, I think the whole purpose of his thread/search for remote is so he doesn't have to touch his phone.

Just need to find where they have in stock...would this work for you (I know its not Bluetooth )?
Sent from the horsemen of death using the galaxy at his will
that is bluetooth. i currently use that unit and am searching for where they have it in stock or a similar unit for a friend. the advantage of this unit over various other bluetooth car kits is the remote, which works very well. your phone pairs with the cigarette lighter unit and i assume the remote naturally pairs with the unit, therefore allowing hands free operation of your music for play, pause, track forward, track backward.
anyone have tips on how to set the default player so that the button play always loads up that player?
Hello my fellow Galaxy S II owners...
I have a dying Sony Xplod stereo installed in my car that only run MP3s, nothing special about it.
I want to buy a new stereo system that can pair with the Galaxy S II so that I can stream music to it and make phone calls while driving.
Since this is new to me, I would like to ask for your help figure out what my options are:
- Shall I get a stereo system with USB link? or bluetooth? and why?
- A simple research on the XDA forums says that not all Galaxy phones can make phone calls using the USB link, is that the same for the bluetooth?
I'm thinking this would be good, but I want to hear from you too, what do you think? http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-DEH-6...ef=sr_1_2?s=car&ie=UTF8&qid=1337028884&sr=1-2
Thanks,
I have both in my car and prefer bluetooth by a long shot.
To be honest I never heard of the possibility of using USB to make phone calls. As far as I knew the only thing possible with USB was to use your phone as some kind of mass storage device, where it would find your .mp3 files and be able to play them.
With bluetooth you can play everything on your phone that plays through the speakers. I use it for navigation / phone calls / radio / spotify. Also the buttons on the steering wheel of my car work perfectly for switching tracks on my phone, and the track info is displayed in the dashboard of my car.
Especially combined with spotify this is amazing. On my PC spotify client I just favorite some new songs and without having to take my phone out of my pocket the music is synced to my phone via wifi, then when I get in the car all my music is right there! You'll need a spotify premium account though, but in my opinion well worth the money.
Just make sure that when you buy your new stereo it is able to play A2DP. On my previous car this wasn't supported and this meant I was only able to use it for making phone calls.
Funny thing was that whenever I was in the middle of a phone call and my nav on my phone gave me a "turn left" notification or something it played fine during the phone call. So if you ask me this was just lazyness from the developers not to implement it. To anyone thinking about buying a new car, avoid "Blue & Me" it really is terrible.
Hope this information helps you in your decision
Thank you for the reply, now I know what I should be looking for.
I'll update this post once I get the stereo and test it
Thanks once again
