anyRemote Installation

#1 Post by Dark_Fire »

Hey,

This is a quick guide on how to install anyRemote for puppy. anyRemote is a application that allows you to control your pc from your phone via bluetooth. Read more at http://anyremote.sourceforge.net/

NOTE: This guide was tested on Puppy 4.1 ONLY!

You will need:
Bluetooth dongle.
Java enabled Cell phone with Bluetooth
And be able to transfer files from your pc to your phone.

Ok, so the 1st we have to set up our bluetooth. This is really easy. Information taken from
ExperimentalBT
AND
Gentoo Bluetooth Guide

1. Download and install experimental_BT_1.pup (Dunno if there is a .pet available)
2. Open up the console and type:

Code: Select all

hcid
hciconfig
It should have a line saying "UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN"
Then say:

Code: Select all

hciconfig -a a class 0x3e0100
hciconfig -a a lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park
hciconfig -a a name [name] (optional)
Now you should be able to see your to see your computer.

Now all you do is download the pet package I made (attached below) and install it. After that, open the console again, type

Code: Select all

anyremote -f /usr/share/anyremote/cfg-data/Server-mode/fileManager.cfg
There are quite a few premade scripts in /usr/share/anyremote/cfg-data/ so check them out.

Hope this helps. Was kinda in a rush when writing this. Need to study for exams now... :/ Wish me luck.

Let me know if it works. To get the Java version for your phone, go to anyRemote download site and download the "Java client for WAP download".

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
