I failed that. After many hours of hacking I did not succeed to disable 
HID. It is very weird since HID outputs some random letters even there 
is no keytable loaded to device and some other than device own NEC 
remote used.
I can read raw key codes from the firmware, but as the HID is still 
there it is useless. I even tried to load some garbage key tables to 
kill HID - but no success. So I will give up as now.
I think it is possible to edit eeprom to kill HID, but that kind of 
eeprom modification is no way to go.
