Sorry, I wasn't clear enough.

The daemon runs on standard PC, and on mobile phone there is an java application 
(on whatever platform) which can bind only psms >= 0x1000 (on most phones). So 
to allow taking control of hid by a cell phone, hidd must listen on odd psms >= 
0x1000 (i use hidd --server on pc, java-client in my current application [1]).
