Hi. I have a Verizon Motorola Razr V3m. I also have an iMac G5 Rev B. The iMac has Bluetooth, but no Apple Remote as they were added in later on. I am trying to install Sailing Clicker onto my V3m so I can control the iMac with it. Sailing Clicker only officially supports the V3x & V3i. How can I get this working on my V3m? I tried installing the V3i version & it launches the Bluetooth File Exchange app. I get the message that my handset doesn't have the necessary services available. How can I get around this? Can I somehow go back to the original Motorola OS & dump the VZW crap all together?? Then the File Exchange should work and I might be able to install Sailing Clicker.

Any insight appreciated.:(

Kevin.

Edit: Has anyone ever tried flashing V3i (or the like) firmware onto a V3m?

I use one of the Sony Ericsson versions on my unsupported Moto L6. Works like a charm but the graphics don't quite fit the screen. Still, it's enough to see what you're doing.

And it's Salling Clicker by the way, not Sailing Clicker.

I'd like to try that, only when I get to the part in Salling Clicker (I feel really dumb about the "sailing":eek: ), It launches Bluetooth File Exchange to send the app to my phone. I then get the message my phone doesn't have the neccessary services required to send the file. Any way to get around this?

Also, does SallingClicker:Mac Require the phone to have Java??

My V3m has BREW, not Java.

Salling Clicker is a Java app so, yes. WTF is "Brew"? My L6 has Java and it's basically a flattened V3. I thought all Razr, slvr, krzr etc came with Java?

Optus, but it doesn't matter down here as the phones all work the same.
