Should be able to d/l it from the play store... WatchON

Im looking for a remote that can change channels on my Verizon fios box and TV using IR blaster

There was an app called Smart Remote for Galaxy S4 (or something like that) that got pulled from the Play Store a little while ago, but it was far and away the best IR app. It looked great and had support for almost any type of device you could think of. Assuming it comes back at some point I'd highly recommend it.

Smart remote is the tits

Watchon might be able to do it if you have a motorola set top box. Choose MOTOROLA from the set top box device selection menu instead of Verizon FIOS. Worked for me.
However, Watchon's utility is limited as I have not yet found a way to fully customize WatchOn for all the special set top box commands (guide, dvr, skip fwd, skip back, etc.)

Old phone as music streamer

Hey! Wondering if you guys could help me out, I have an old HTC incredible s that I want to leave plugged into my stereo and stream music from my gs3 to it, preferably over blue tooth since I never use wifi. Is there any way to set this up?

I can't remember the name of the app, but there is a program that allows 2 mobile devices (tablets and/or smartphones) to connect this way. The app for the host device is a paid app but each addon device utilizes a free controller app. In this instance, your HTC would use the paid host app to be used with a stereo, TV, computer, etc and your s3 (and any other phones/tablets) would use the free remote control app. I'll see if I can find it again

Thanks in advance

the app worked on my Sharp but didint work on the living rooms Westinghouse not sure why tho
Can someone point me to instructions on setting up the IR remote? I cannot for the life of me find it in the menu. I also downloaded the user manual from Tmobile.....no mention of the IR there either.
What Tutorial are you guys talking about?
I picked up my new S4 yesterday.....lovin' it so far!:good:
Mine worked with my Sanyo tv in my room, all the sharp tvs at work, and my 10 year old sony tv. Make sure you are standing close to the tv when setting it up and try each code multiple times. On all tvs it worked with the first code but I had to try it a few times

Thanks! I have to get to the first step 1st LOL. Where is the IR set-up?
Edit- I found it. It is the WatchOn App.

Using Logitech database for IR Blaster?

My set top box is not supported on peel or watch on, but I found that it is supported by the Logitech harmony codes.
Is there anyway we can get the codes from that database and use them in peel or some other app?
I also have an IR receiver with a 3.5mm output. Can it be used to learn IR codes from the original remote?
If it helps my box is a Cisco 3410DVB

Go to Samsung's website after submitting a ticket via WatchOn, which should happen after failing to set it up, & submit a question to customer service. I had an issue with codes & after getting a hold of service, 3 days later one of their engineers contacted me & a week later t5hey had fixed my issue.
Sammy's customer service has come a long way & has become pretty responsive & helpful. That has been my experience in the last 6 months.
Thanks for the info.
Actually I don't have watch on in my device.
I had submitted the problem with the peel app, but there hasn't been much response to that from the support guys.
I tried an S4 version of Watchon, but it gave me some error, I will try to get the note 8.0 version.

I must be the only once that can't get my TVs to ever react to the IR blaster... just doesn't seem strong enough.
I wonder what's the point in having IR with no app which you could teach by reading signal from your own remote. Even the old Palms could do it (Novii Remote). I searched the Play Store and found nothing, Peel is the first app to go once I start removing the S-bloatware.

Actually, it is Samsung's fault. The hardware for learning codes is missing from galaxy device. The device doesn't even cost 50 cents, why did they didn't include it?
Sony is much better in this aspect, it can learn codes.

Hascode: kernel allowing full duplex audio

Hi. Sorry; it has been so long since I've been here, so I wonder:
A while back there was talk of the possibility of enabling full duplex audio with this TI chip if only a kernel was tweaked to do so. Full duplex audio would allow two way wifi calling apps such as groove ip to work with a google voice account. That has always been a cool hack for an unassumiing book reader. Just never quite got there. Just wondered if there was any development on that front or found to be impossible.

It was going to get moved or ignored if you left it in Development. And you should have PM Hashcode before posting thread.

You know that this OMAP SoC doesn't support VoIP? It can use Mic, but not VoIP.

You are looking Watch On, I had trouble using it. Controls the TV okay but I had trouble using the DVR with it.
No not watch on its not a Samsung app it's made by another developer it controls all devices and has more features for rooted devices it's been around for a while

Touch squid ftw. Good support and they update a lot. Kind of challenging setting up less than common features on remotes though.

Oddly I like WatchOn and glad Sammy went with them. I have DirectTV so it's fully functional for almost everything i need. Do with it has a full remote instead the scaled down one. But I paid for the directv remote that works on all my boxes via network, rather i'm in that room or not. Great for screwing with my kids when they decide they want to hide in they rooms instead of coming when i call.

What receiver are you using BTW? I'm having to experiment with different onkyo receivers to find common buttons. Wish there was a learn feature like Logitech harmony.
