Anyone know of a decent app? I haven't been able to find anything decent other than stock. I think having physical buttons for channel changing would be awesome.
i think that lg has their remote control software locked down. i dont think you can install any other working RC software on the g2 or g3

I know for a fact that Galaxy Universal Remote works perfectly. It is a paid app but it is the best one I have found. Way better than the stock Remote Control app.
But I don't know of any that use physical buttons unfortunately.
But it is possible for third party apps to use the IR Blaster.

IR Port is a bit old fashioned. It has been replaced by Bluetooth. But I agree that it was useful allowing the use of remote control programs.
Cheers
Hi guys. Love the phone. It seems I would also be able to adjust volume of my stereo with the IR but I see no solutions or anyone talking about it. Does anyone have any info? Thanks!!
Stay on the lookout for ir blaster apps destined to show up in play store.

The stock app works for me. TV/receiver/satellite box downstaris, TV/satellite box upstairs.
No problems on my Onkyo receiver! There's a lot of built in codes so you should give it a try
Can you provide some more details on how you control your receiver? Do you have TV control and then receiver control in a separate app or something? And how do i try different codes? I am willing to try.

Works on my Yamaha and Denon Recievers
when you set up the profiles in the app (called "TV" in your drawer) it asked you what kind of devices you have. You simply pick em from a list and set it up. Its pretty self explanatory. I control my Vizio TV, Pioneer receiver (for all my audio) and a Directv sat box. On the stock layout, when I hit channel up or down, it changes the channel on the sat box. When I hit volume up or down, it changes the volume on the receiver. When I hit menu it brings up the channel guide. When I hit MY DVR it brings up my recorded shows. These are all stock settings, and you can customize it any way you want. You can even create custom buttons and it will "learn" from the devices remote.
Yeah no problems with Sony and onkyo

Hmm.. Sorry, I still dont get it. Its already setup for my Sony TV. Now when I go to settings, it lets me choose provider, zip code, etc., but I dont see choices for devices anymore. Any help is appreciated.
No problem with my HK receiver here works great.
why don't you try deleting that remote setup and trying again in one go

Unfortunately the manufacturers listed are not identical to the stock app. The most popular cable and satellite providers in the country aren't even listed. So unfortunately this becomes useless

This is just my opinion, but I consider the ability to learn from another remote and create a custom remote better than using the built-in list, which are hit and miss I've found and even when some controls are a hit, not all controls are.
I only looked at the ported version once so I don't remember if it includes learning capability. If it does, I plan on switching to it. I made a custom remote which has the the following buttons for both my TV and amplifier on one remote:
Power
Volume Up and Down
Mute
And I added the Source, Up, Down and OK menu buttons only from the TV remote.
These are all I personally need since I watch and play everything through my PC hooked up to the amplifier/TV, but if I need more at any time I'll just add more custom buttons learned from the original remotes.

Thanks...I did mess around with the custom one but didn't have much luck with anything other than just power on and off. I bought the 7 smart remote on the play store but immediately refunded it since I figured I'd be able to set up the custom remote at some point. Thanks again
Hello,
I've bought a IR Jack from AliExpress and I've downloaded ZaZaRemote to control it, but I'm not able to make it works. I think that the problem is that it can't find the correct mount point
Any of you has ever bought a IR Jack???
How did you make it work???
Thanks for help
Edit: I've tried with a Sony Z5 Premium and it's working, so probably the problem is that the application can't find the correct mount point
That device appears to be an iPhone accessory and requires a special app to control only on iOS. The app you have appears to be just a regular IR remote app for phones that have a built in IR emitter like many Samsung or LG phones.

Thanks for answer, but in on of the reviews review I've read about someone with a Sony that was able to use it. Anyway the application is supposed to work with every remote emitter, not only built in, I've seen videos in which they use it with a Jack IR

Got my Mate 10 Pro two days ago and been trying to programm IR Blaster for my setup box but when i "code" it with my remote it does not work (it works just fine with preset settings for my TV). No ir light at all (tested with another phones camera).
Any ideas how to programm it ? Should i maybe use another app ?
Thanks
Yeah same issue with my Sony TV and aircon works fine but my surround sound won't register, even when learning via the remote. Worked fine on my old LG phone IR. I'm also looking for a new app, bit of a shame as I prefer integrated app instead of 3rd party.
I'm having the same problem. Preset controls work fine but custom don't. The bad thing is that Anymote I've been using on my old Note 3 and also worked on P10 plus is not working on Mate 10 pro. Did anyone find some app or workaround to make the custom ir learning function to work? As eg. long press that I need to turn on my Panasonic TV is not working in most applications and it also doesn't work in the Pre-installed SmartController
Same with my mate 10 pro. Very limited remote control selection for built-in app. Custom remote not working even though i tried different techniques in programming keys. My xiaomi mi5 had better remote control features than this and it sucks coz the remote function is one of the main reason why I picked this phone. Now I feel like i just bought an iphone.
Has anyone been able to make a working custom remote?I haven't been able to copy any of my remotes from tvs,STB's to AV tools. If you got it to work can you share which phone,ROM version,app you are using?thanks
Anymote
For anymote to work with Huawei mate 10 pro need to change in settings advanced to alternative Ir code

You got it to work with AnyMote ? free version ?
I got this msg
Error
Unfortunately your phone/tablet does not support IR commands learning.
This is a hardware limitation that cannnot be resolved through software
Same here on the Mate 10 Pro... any ideias ?
do you guys test galaxy universal remote app? I am using this in mate 9 and working OK, make one test for see, I understand the models phone are diferents.
As stated, enabling alternative IR code makes Anymote work, but forget about using learning function with it: Huawei just didn't release the needed API to third part devs.
As for the native app's learning function, I was able to succesfully program custom remotes for 2 devices, and it works fine. But in another case, while I was able to program the signal from the device's remote, that device just doesn't seem to want to receive signals from the phone, it just ignores them. It did behave the same with my old Mate 9, thus I assume that there are devices around which just don't like it, or Huawei's phones don't support some particular IR codes (but why then does the app apparently accept them? go figure).
Same for me
Its still not learning, right?
I have the samme issue.
Does anyone know if Anymote is working fully on the Honor View 10?
I had no problems getting my Samsung TV and Xfinity Box to pair and work perfect. I just have problems with the Roku remote. Has anyone had any luck with Roku?
I found a method that seems to work fairly reliably on my mate 10 pro: hold the phone and remote about 5cm apart, and extremely steadily (I hold the phone in my left hand normally, hold the remote upside down in my right hand, and support my right hand on the top right corner of the phone), then I hold the button down with my right thumb while keeping everything as steady as possible until it registers (should be a second or two unless you are not pointing the remote at the correct sensor). Only had to redo one or two buttons after I started programming it this way.
i used this app very good but you need Chinese app gallery it has the new remote update 4.0.9
