Remuco on LG VX8600 #64

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

What is your environment?
* OS: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala
* Remuco version: 0.9.2
* Client device: LG VX8600 (Telus)
* Player: Banshee 1.5.1 (daily build)

Hello!
I am greatly anticipating being able to use this app, but have run into
some problems. 
I have used it after generating the jar and jad files from source through
the emulator. Worked fine for controlling banshee, so this is not going to
end up being a problem on that front.
What is a problem for me is that I can't seem to get the app to use
bluetooth (I have connected and editted my filesystem via bitpim so I am
able to connect). 
But, when I try with the client app I get "Sorry, it looks like Bluetooth
is not supported on this device. Please use Wifi instead"
So, Id much rather use bluetooth, but I'll go for Wifi if I have to.
But... How? My router uses WEP. Where do I account for that password? I
believe I am using the proper IP address as well.

Thats that question. 
But any tips on getting it working with BT would be much appreciated too.
here is how I go about connecting normally:
sudo hcitool cc 00:1E:75:00:B4:57
rfcomm -r connect 0 #to connect in raw mode - what I needed to do for bitpim

but should I be connecting to a specific channel like:
rfcomm connect 0 00:1E:75:00:B4:57 16
?
How do I know what channel? 16 is "Service Name: BT DIAG" -> What I used to
use in Hardy Heron and Jaunty Jackolope.

Thanks in advance!

Though the LG VX8500 has Bluetooth, the message "Sorry, it looks like Bluetooth
is not supported on this device. Please use Wifi instead" indicates that 
Bluetooth
cannot be used in JavaME applications (like Remuco) because the required API 
JSR-82
is not implemented on this device.

According to
http://www.handcellphone.com/archives/lg-vx8600-chocolate-ringtone-accessories-s
oftware-review-specifications-and-buy
this device has no WiFi interface so WiFi isn't an option too, unless you 
connect via
UMTS/GPRS/... but this costs you money (except you have an internet flatrate) 
and it
requires that the host computer is reachable outside your home network.

Based on this I'm afraid Remuco cannot be used on the LG VX8600, sorry.
