Hi, I have been downloaded PCControl today, installed it and connected it to my T68i phone. But I dont know how to control my computer from the mobile phone.

If I press the keys, the phone works as always do. It doesn't look that something not usual is happening.

Please, help me! Thanks for advanced!

Use the "Accessory" menu. On T610 it's located under "Connectivity", I can't remember where it is on T68
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

Ok, I have my PCControl connected to my mobile via BlueTooth on COM3 port.

But in the Connection menú, the Accesory option apperas disabled.
There is no accesory connected to my mobile phone. Why?? I dont know. Anyone could help me???

I can connect with HiperTerminal and make calls with atd command, etc.. But I cant do nothing more. The SE Mobile Monitor dont detects my phone and I cant use any SE application.

Plz, I need your help again.

you have to activate the port used by the bt serial port in the phone monitor. Use search, you will find a lot of solutions

I have activated COM3 port which is what BT use to connect to my mobile. I can connect directly with HyperTerminal, but SE Monitor doesnt find my mobile.

thanks.

I own a t610 and have managed to get PC Control working from the accessories menu on the phone. My problem being the number buttons dont match up to their desired use.

Below is how they are supposed to work for Winamp:

Volume Up (Volume Up)
Volume Down (Volume Down)
Key 1 (Starts Winamp / Show Winamp)
Key 4 (Play)
Key 5 (Pause)
Key 6 (Stop)
Key 7 (Previous track)
Key 8 (Next track)
Key 9 (Toggle between remaining / elapsed time)
Key 0 (Close Winamp)


However, when I press number 5 for example, it skips 3 tracks down the playlist instead of Pause. None of the keys seem to work, its very frustrating. Anyone else with this problem?

Goto the MoveMouse menu and keep pressing # till you see winamp on your phone then all those keys will work.

Pressing # again allows you to change program pressing * tells you what each button does what.

hope that helps!

Thanks Pingu, its been very hard work trying to get the console key instructions to use this programme, the only bit I did come across was in German, which I'm not very familiar with.

For any other users having general BT issues, I have found on many occasions it was necessary to reboot the phone in order to get some of the bluetooth functionalities to work. Hopefully some of these issues, if not all will have been resolved in the latest firmware version.
