Old LeTV and LeEco branded phones have great infrared blasters to control TVs remotely by your phone. But LeTV's own remote control application is not good at all. Unfortunately LeTV's infrared controller is not compatible with standard infrared protocols that android uses. So LeTV users has to use original LeTV remote control app.
This app has an Xposed module that make IR blaster usable for all IR apps on several LeTV and LeEco phones. Might not work on custom ROMs. In case of troubles search in logcat for 'LeTV IR Fix' messages.
This app's Xposed module is based on John Zweng's github XposedLePro3Infrared project: https://github.com/johnzweng/XposedLePro3Infrared

Built in support for IR blasters
“Android 4.4 introduces platform support for built-in IR blasters, along with a new API and system service that let you create apps to take advantage them.”
That means all new Android handsets, providing they have latent IR functionality, can be used to control a myriad of devices including your HDTV and stereo.
And because the API is open to developers there’s likely to be all kinds of IR Blaster features added to current and upcoming applications and content inside Google Play.

...So does this mean we can finally get auto-learning IR Remote functionality on our LGOGP, similar to what the LGOG2 has

I'm guessing not...
Hello devs. Is anyone aware of any third-party or alternative IR blaster apps for the Xperia ZL? I've been looking for an alternative to the stock remote app, and tested a few third-party solutions like TouchSquid, to no success.
I would like to be able to use the IR blaster with a custom ROM like CyanogenMod, but it's clear that simply installing the stock app won't work because it requires the Sony framework. CyanogenMod is reportedly working on IR blaster support, but I've no idea when that'll be available.
Any ideas?

+1 on this.
I've searched as well and haven't had any luck.
My main gripe is being unable to make a shortcut to the macro's in the sony IR app.
Touchsquid home works well..the only drawback is that it although it automatically adds the remotes configured by the user in the stock remote control app,manually adding the remote by searching the device,brand,different remote control types,etc,etc....can be very challenging ......also the UI of the app takes time to get used to and know how to use it.Also sometimes if u face the no response from your device issue while controlling it from touchsquid,I found a workaround for this,
I.e. -->firstly open the stock remote control app & add the remote according to your device,
-->minimize it (don't close)
-->now (most important step) while opening touchsquid app, cover the IR blaster with your hand
-->then switch on your device with any remote of your device(although it can be done with the stock app,but this is if u face the "no response" thingy )
-->now u can operate ur device
I know that the above steps sound very silly,but I could only make it work ,that way
Also if you want other apps,try dijit app from playstore it's quite a good app with a nice,clean UI
If you feel that I've helped you in anyway, please hit the thank button

Thanks for the response. However, the Touchsquid app cannot work in custom roms because of what you stated -- it requires the stock IR remote app to configure, which does not work in custom roms.
Dijit does not work with the ZL, and requires an external bluetooth IR device, which completely defeats the purpose.
ive seen some ir remote apps in htc one apps section ...give those a try and see .
Hi,
I looking for IR app to control my AC.
The built-in app doesn't have option to add AC and in learning mode it's learn the button but doesn't work.

It's not fully compatible with the G3.
can't record :\
i think LG
did not make the IR blaster API available
The G3 ported ROM for LG G2 have that option:
http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....jpg?key=952pdObH-iSJNuJWKrFbCA&ts=1408306115
Now i really don't know if is possible to port to the original G3 ROM, maybe you can talk with the developer, CloudFa.
Used the learning function to control my AC. I have noticed that you have to be pointing the G3 right at the receiver on the AC or it just doesn't work. Seems like the G3s IR blaster only shoots in straight lines, not like a traditional IR remote for a TV.
Zaza remote, or another name for it is iremote
Note 3 rooted knox 0, bootloader locked, my last Samsuck crap. I want freedom.
Smart IR Remote does work on the G3 now. Using it with my air conditioner - works fine.
Sent from my LG-D851
I had this exact issue with my Frigidaire air conditioner as I lost the remote and Smart Remote anymote worked just fine even if I couldn't use the learn mode.
Do any of the custom roms available have support for the ir blaster on the T700 for use with an app like Peel Smart Remote?
Hey all
Couldn't find my TV brand in any app so I downloaded anymore to add the remote manually (self learning)
And I got a message saying my phone doesn't support ir commend learning and that it's an hardware problem that cannot be resolved through software.
Any way to fix this.?
Tnx
dont think it have this feature like the lg v20
why the blaster is work twice whit one touch ?
i touch one time a bottom but it work 2 time
Yes, the phone doesn't have an IR receiver that would be necessary for IR code learning, only an IR blaster. So... If the stock app didn't have your TV... You should look for a 3rd party app that might.
i love the lg v20 so much... so sad have to let it go... the remote learning was one of the best feature including the quad dac audio
