3820 Streaming Stick w/older model 3500 remote?

I have a 3500 streaming stick.  A friend is offering me his 3820 streaming stick that he'd lost his remote for some time ago.  Can I use my old/previous remote with the 3820 stick?  The menu comes up fine, but my remote is non-responsive.  Thanks.

    If it's a working remote, yes it should pair to your newer Stick. What's stopping you from trying?

    Did you get this cable with the stick?

    Without it, no remote will work.  With it, Tivoburkee is probably the best one to tell you whether your remote will work.

      Yes, I just paired an original 3500 stick remote, the RC41 to 3820 stick, it worked. Its lousy Roku remote, no tv control at all. But as renojim wrote you have to have the original usb cable with bump as pictured.

        I have a cable labeled "Long Range Wireless Receiver" (Model WR002).  My remote has model: RC12 underneath the batteries.
