Hay guys
I was wondering if there are any good applications which would make use of the IR blaster on my HTC ONE
for example TV remote control apps
because i searched the net and couldn't find any good app that works with HTC ONE'S IR Blaster

I'm just using the included "TV" app and it's working excellent. Not only does it give you Remote functionality, but also will pull in your provider's channel guides/listing for your viewing pleasure
irdroid or androidirc,
you can google it ,to find the right site to download, i did'nt find any application in google play

Honestly, Sense TV app that comes with the phone, does a real good decent job as a Remote app.

OP's question is still relevant. Until we have market apps that utilize the IR blaster, this is yet another feature that's dependent upon using a Sense-laden ROM.
Look up peel on the playstore... I haven't used it yet but it's supposedly used with devices with an ir port.

Ha gave a link anyway...
I'm looking for alternatives too, the built in App doesn't support my denon receiver and I can't seem to figure out how to tell the remote I want to use the menu button on my TV sometimes and not my DVR.
Not sure of any apps, but there are workarounds to your problems. Create completely separate remotes for your devices when you don't want overlap, or if it's just one button that overlaps you can map that to one of the buttons on the HTC remote app that you aren't using (for me, that's the "." button on the number pad).
Will the remote app still not support your receiver if you do it the hard way (programming each button)? Or is just that you would rather not have to go through that (understandable).

I'd rather not have to program each button. I'm longing for the Harmony folks releasing a remote app. Activity based remotes are awesome.
I'm actually looking for an app that will mimic the Apple Remote so that I can control my Macbook with it.
I am just looking for an app that will skip all the programming BS and just left me use it as a remote. I don't have any service as I use 100% streaming and downloading for my content. Also simple functions like power/input take extra button presses. Should be much easier than it is.

The problem with this is it requires a separate hub and doesn't make use of the built-in IR blaster. I too yearn for a Harmony-like app that makes use of my IR blaster...

Hello
I have LG L9 d605.There is only one supported app for IR remote control (QuickRemote) from LG. Other apps are not supported, because IR is blocked only for this one app.How can I enable IR for other application from Google Play.
Sorry for my English.

I know the thread is old, but, you can try to use Custom Rom.
Hello developers have a question for you, be without some apk like "go remote" work on LG G2? For example the Smart Remote samsung G2 mini because the functions I see in the quick remote LG G2 are very few in both the G2 Great as the kids. Thank you for your attention. :good:
Nope. LG phones are not supported by any other remote app except LG's QuickRemote since it use its own proprietary closed interface rather than standard Android interface. Sorry.
Hi, Im missing universal remote on Note 4. There is Peel remote but it does not contain my VIDO TV and there is no function to just place buttons on layout and map them with original tv remote like on LG Gx phones... is there any 3rd party app that allows it? Cant find one...
Don't know the answer but try this one. It may program with original remote?

ok, I will try ir right now. On LG G2/G3 I had I could just make layout of buttons and point original TV remote to map each button.
Ok, I tried it but not good :/ It has function to record your own remote but its like phone does not receive beam from original remote :/ when select other TV from list e.g. Samsung, everything works :/ maybe note 4 does not has function to receive beam like lg g2/g3 ? :/

In my opinion Peel remote is the best. I am using a JVC 32" tv, only volume and power works at default configuration. But u can troubleshoot the button values. Mine is working at 3rd set of values for the channel change and numbers.
Hello my name is Alber and I own a LG G2 mini.
One of the reasons why I bought this phone was that it has a IR blaster, unfortunately LG blocked it and 3rd party apps can't access it.
That means that i'm stuck with the stock app called QuickRemote, the app works fine for tv's and some DVD players but it doesn't let me use it for projectors or any other devices. Im using android 5.0.2. Could anyone please help me? I have my device rooted and I have xposed framework installed. I'd be so grateful if someone developed a module or an app to let me use the IR blaster with 3rd party apps. Thanks!

After a lot of days of trying, i managed to take access of the IR blaster using a GPIO pin in the msm8926 soc but i dont have the knowledge to create a module and library in the kernel with that complexity and if i make it, sameone have to make a driver for the android HAL layer because all ather devices with blaster have a dedicated chip for control, ours not.
-Next is to try port the LG IRRC for second time, i managed to make it work the QuickRemote and take the support device list but the service of QuickSetSDK i can't get so lucky.
Anyway i dont have gave up, but i dont now the time that it can take.
