PC setup, autostart, own website!!!

Hi all,

I'm proud to announce that we have our own website for GRemote app. I'm going to write a couple of articles containing solutions for the biggest problems. I hope we could place here some skins in the near future. There are some new functions in the last version like "magic" button to open ports in Windows firewall, some fixes in communication, and PC setup - now setup is easy.

Please visit us:

Great Marbalon!

(and a Happy New Year!)

...but...

PLEASE include a "non setup" version!

many of us hate windows installers...

(esp. since for us that have it installed it is only a matter of replacing some files)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Just done ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
hey thanks man!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Pilot1:
This app has some nice potentials!

I tried it together with Microsoft flightsim 2004, using a software called "Mouse As Yoke"... and I could steer the aircraft quite nicely with the diamond. A little bit of sensitivity tuning and this should work well!

Making it possible for the app to act as a HID game controller would be great if you can make it work =)

Thanx for a great app!!

smply dies not work on the TD.

loads on ppc an pc - but nothing happens...

advise?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] kiran999:
Great program cant wait for the keyboard to be implemented. Also it would be great if you could add a small vibration when the mouse buttons are clicked.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] AnthRaX_Thy:
Since I'm not good in computer.

could you tell me the detail about connecting the device to my pc (windows).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Rockhound53:
hmm, the trick is to touch the screen to move the Cursor with the Gsensor...

It works now, but the Taskbar is shown...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] asterix00:
I have the same problem! someone please help!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] horstborsch:
Awesome, will try that soon!

Can you please add ApptoDate support and note the Version number in the title so you can easily see any updates.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] kiran999:
You can get the latest version of .Net from the Microsoft website.

Another suggestion for the next version of the program is that you can add a few extra buttons so we can go back and forwards in webpages.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Colin_ger:
This is really amazing...

As for usage with a media center pc, I think it is even more comfortable to have cursor-movements from the keyboard.

I am using mediaportal, right now through a X10-remote.

So could you add an additional interface with perhaps Up/Down/Left/Right, Enter, Back, Menu?? This would be awesome
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] vibecatalin:
Very nice app... thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] TeDeV:
nice app man. may i suggest a few things i would like to be implemented if u can?

1) place a button named "G On" (or whatever), when i press the button, i can move the mouse from my pda, without touching the screen all the time. Touch Pro is thick already, and it is getting kinda difficult after a while. with this button, life will be easier.

2) the mouse buttons are too difficult to use. since touch pro is thicker than diamond, double-clicking is like a ninja trick, in order to get it right.

i suggest, moving them a little bit lower from where they are, and when that specific area of the 2 buttons are clicked, mouse cannot be moved.

thank you :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] harrysaab:
i installed it, but it dont work, i have put in my ip address and syncd via activesyn over bluetooth, gserver is running on my pc too.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] TeDeV:
adjust ur firewall.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Susurs:
Great application :)

And I almost bought an MX Air recently...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
New ver 0.1.2!!!

Added one suggestion and one bug fixed I hope(with top bar).
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] m3k3k3:
Thanks man, your app is exactly what i need, work just fine with wireless and activesync connection. Keep the good work. Thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] darnelhouston:
how do you get it to work wireless?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sergio PC:
This is very very coooool:D

Thank you very much very nice!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] stan2:
I have a request,

It it possible that you can implement bluetooth connectivity? I know that is is rather soon to ask, but it would be very exciting bc my lappie have bluetooth and hdmi output. It would be so cool to watch movie on my couch and use my phone to move the mouse over bluetooth! it would also save the battery a bit since bluetooth use less power.

But other wise, you just have create the ultimate program for a smartphone my friend, soon other smartphone friends of mine(iphone...cough) would be very jealous hahahahah:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] htctoucher:
this isnt workin at all for my htc (touch sprint)

i installed .. wm6.1

am i missing somethin?

all i get is a connection timeout error, and when i go into the touchpad i cant move the mouse at all

connected over usb
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] twe90kid:
if you have a router, make sure u open port 5656. also open port 5656 on your firewall.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] m_ihab77:
Impressive, I will definitely give it a try

thank you

Any news about the linux version ?

Especially waiting for Gmedia on linux...

Perhaps I'm the only Ubuntu user who bought a Diamond instead of a Neo Freerunner ? ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] elyanivson:
Thanks!!

I have a question.

If i want to "push" both CTRL and "LEFT ARROW" buttons at the same time, can i???

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Lord Snooker:
The best prog for the HTC touch diamond.

Thx.

Lord Snooker
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Yes, just go to keyboard panel and pres ctrl and afther that arrow down on DPad (if you have Dpad, no lucky for Touch HD users)

Sadly not. I try to build simple apps in GTK and QT and can't decide witch is better for my app. But don't have a time for this. Sorry you need to wait :(

Cheers,

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] elyanivson:
I'm sorry but what is Dpad?

thanks anyway.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] elettrozero:
Great work!!! what about making this work via BT ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] elyanivson:
I think the first page on this post can help you.

"BT with Personal Area Network (simple howto by ImpactMan)

Download the WM6BTPAN.exe (from this post);

Run WM6BTPAN.exe on your device;

Go to windows bluetooth connections (control panel > networks), double click on bluetooth icon and create a bluetooth PAN connection (make sure that conection is ok and you can see your IP);

Run GRemoteServer (see at status tab if bluetooth PAN IP is ok)

Run GRemote application on your device, enter the Bluetooth PAN IP (don't need to do "find"), and than press GO.

If you have any problems with connection try to assign IP manually on booth sides

Go to Control panel on your PC en set up IP address for BT conection manually (for example: 192.168.50.1/ mask 255.255.255.0)

Now go to Start->Settings->Connections->Wi-fi->Network cards on your phone. Find "Bluetooth PAN driver" and setup IP address manually too (for example 192.168.50.2/ mask 255.255.255.0) "

Do you have any plans on...

Trying to get this to work on a PS3 or on Mac's. I would be very willing to donate.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] hurrycaine3000:
My phone just gets cooler with each passing day. Thank you so much for this app. I can't wait to try it in every way possible.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dge669110:
Realy great this installer, I just had a littel problem with touchpad with the keyboard. The first touchpad is working great but the oder one is not so precise and offen the mouse is countinuing is way without touching the pad. If you can make a numpad and a linux GremoteServer will be realy great . That is the most usefull programm for me. A great thanks for your job.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] slartiii:
Hey,

Allow me first to pointout what an amazing cool software it is. I'm still trying to get the hang of the mouse usage - its still not very easy to use - but the touch pad is awsome and the keyboard (Im using TP) so its really uber.

I sent a small bug report on the mail, but I also have an idea for a really cool feature.

If the media player skin could plug into windows media player (and maybe winamp) - and extract the file info (like which song is playing etc). Then you could use ur phone to control ur computer while listening to music and have a real nice UI for it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] NLS:
there is software to do that
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] sschuepfer:
Perfect App. We need to integrate a XBMC applet.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
New FAQs added.

We've created two FAQs that describes most problems. First one contains installation howto with USB connection and the second describes bluetooth connection with PAN profile. We hope they will be helpful for you.

Enjoy,

can't turn right

So this app is awsome just one problem. I am using the joystick function and everything works except I can't turn right, and I can't back out of the joystick function. I have to hit home and then go back in a reconnect. Everything else works fine, as far as I can tell. all mouse and keyboard functions. even the joystick except it won't recognize the action of turning right, or turning the screen to the right on the X axis. any help. I'm so excited to play with this but I'm stuck on making left turns.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Try to recalibrate joystick in Windows control panel.

Cheers.

Marcin.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] hurrycaine3000:
I tried that but then Need for speed just doesn't show it at all. when I first start need for speed it shows the joystick. as soon as I try to change any configuration in the control panel, it dissapears completely from need for speed or just doesn't work at all.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] hurrycaine3000:
Oh woops. I got ya now. I was looking under the wrong thing. cool It actually works. pretty well too. I do have another question though. What is the Z axis? also when I use the slider it goes out of joystick mode, and when they say dial in calibration is that the disc around the action button? (center button) Sorry for all the questions just trying to find out. Thanx for pointing me in the right direction though. it does work, and just fine for driving. I'm just wondering if I can use it on a flight game to utilize the X and Y axis.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] juddrl:
great app!

Really like it. Intalled on Bluetooth beautifully. Is there a tutorial of any kind on how to negotiate the mouse? Mine is sort of shaky and somewhat difficult to navigate.

Thanks!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] downloademo:
Thank you,

Looking forward to seing a stable release
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] GnatGoSplat:
Marcin, this looks like a really cool app. I haven't tried it yet, but I really wanted Gmouse functionality which is how I found this thread.

It looks like GRemoteServer app is required? I would prefer not to install a server app on the machine I want to control with Gmouse, is it possible in future versions you can make the program HID Compliant? I believe if this could emulate a "Bluetooth HID Compliant Mouse" then no drivers are required on Windows systems, but I could be wrong on that.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] raphmeyer:
Found sulution for the MediaKeys

First, gratulation for the new Webpage of GRemote.

Now, I had the Problem with GMedia and found the Software, which caused the problem on my Computer. Perhaps someone can use this Information also:

I use the Microsoftkeyboard- and Mouse (Wirelesskeyboard 6000 v3.0 and Wireless Lasermouse 6000 v2.0). Since I installed the Software for these products, GMedia didn't work. Now I removed the Software and GMedia works fine :D

Hope, someone can fix the same Problem with this

Feature request

I have just been testing GRemote with Media Portal adn discovered, in media center mode (GPad), the middle key works as Enter key as expected, but there is no way of pausing the played material as there is no Pause key which usually is being mapped as Space key.

Any chance for adding space key on this screen?

G Remote error message

when i download gremote and set it up everything works great but when i turn mycomputer off then on again i get an error message "Failed to set data for GRemote". Any ideas on why? If i download and set up it works fine but thats to much to do everytime i wanna use it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Hi,

Really strange, I have no idea why. Are you sure your computer is clear (no viruses) ? Or maybe your antyvirus block this app. But why it works after setup??? I have no other ideas :(

Sounds like the exact same problem im having. It worked perfectly untill I restarted my laptop, and then "Failed to set data for GRemoteServer" This happens both at windows startup and if I manually try to start the program.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
I googled soma pages and find solution for other program with the same problem. Try to run this program as administrator. Tell me if this works.

Vista bussiness - not Admin - failed to set Data for 'GRemoteServer'

Hi,

got the same promblem:

Vista + not as Admin -> error

Vista + run as Admin -> works

tried to give me the rights for all files in c:\Program Files\GRemote

-> still the error

Problem must be somewhere else - where do you store the saved Data? Registry?

Could you fix it so it can be run as normal User?

THX

Very nice Program anyway!

Windows Defender.

earlier versions of GRemote used to work just fine... both admin and as not admin.

This one was raising error. Later I discovered that it was being blocked by Windows Defender for "suspicious activities" of adding BHO (addons) to Internet Explorer!

Is it spyware or adware ridden???? :mad::mad::eek:

Seems there is some problem with your site. When i try to download the software, it downloads at very slow speed (1-2kbps) and the download stops at 138kb. My internet connection is not the problem as i have tried several times. Is there any mirror of the latest version.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
There is nothing danger in my program. Latest version have code to open firewall maybe this is a problem.

I see my hosting service is overloaded. Try to download it later. But I download it now 20kb/s. Not so fast but possible.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Noodled24:
Just to add, that I am the only user of my computer and have admin privileges. But I still need to right click and run Gserver as admin.

In Vista it is normal for security reasons. Most program do not require admin privileges and Vista run it as normal user.

the first time i tried to use the bluetooth with the gremote app it was fine..

then i turn off my device and when i tried to connect again to the pc via pan it said

" the connetion with the bluetooth network device failed. the device may already be connected to another computer, or it may need to be be configured to accept connections from this computer. consult your device documentation for turther information."

well...the device is configured to the pc...i can send and recived files.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] barnie_bg:
I spent some time trying to figure out how to make a Bluetooth HID service on Windows Mobile, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like it is possible at all.

It is not too hard to create a Bluetooth service, but only if it is based on RFCOMM. HID uses L2CAP and, moreover, the two HID channels are already taken by the HID client that is always present on the device.

However, one thing that can certainly be done and will definitely improve the user experience is exchanging the remote data through an RFCOMM-based Bluetooth service. The PC app can expose the service, the mobile can connect to it. It will make for a much simpler procedure than the current PAN-based approach.

This page gives the sources of a small utility that does exactly that. I don't think it has device and service discovery, but even without that its method of setup is much easier than GRemote's. You may also want to take a look at Franson Bluetools.

Connection timeout on BT

I have an unlocked touch diamond, and I'm running Vista 64. I can use the Gremote via USB np. I've been through the setup for the BT 10 times though and it just times out. Firewall is set for UDP 5656 on both comp and router. I just don't get it. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Connection Time Out

Hi there, first of all many many thanks for this great program!

Now:

I've successfully connected it with my office laptop via wifi (XP SP3) without any problem at all! Now, when trying to connect with my home desktop pc i'm not able to connect anymore!

Home PC System Iinfo:

OS: Windows 7 build 7000 (firewall fully disabled)

A/V: Kaspersky Int. Sec. (fully disabled during the time of testing)

Wifi Router: Planet something (can't remember the model name)

Tried, running the server, "as administrator" all the time..

once without ticking the "compatibility mode"

once with "vista compatible" mode

once with "windows xp sp2 compatible" mode

but no luck what so ever.

Funny thing is when if click "find" under profile button, the log @ server shows that my diamond is searching for a server, but diamond never "sees" the server. Any help please ? what am I missing here ? Thanks in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] marbalon:
Looks like problem with outgoing pocket blocking. Try to remove your antyvirus (unistall not disable in configuration), just for tests.

Cheers,

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] chamak:
Step 1: I uninstalled Kaspersky completely

Step 2: I disabled windows firewall completely

Step 3: Tried every compatibility option combo (xp with/witout admin)(vista with/without admin) (only with/without admin). Still a no-go...

I'm really really puzzled, what made this happen! Still the pc "sees" my diamond but the diamond doesn't!!!

Does it NOT work in windows 7!
