[Q] anyone try to port sony tab s remote controll

Noob with a 6210. Peel sucks and I do want to use the ir to control stuff. Is it possible to get the the apk for Sony s tab remote and try to get it to work on this tab plus?
I searched and found not much but since the Sony finally has root I thought it might be a way to get this done.

U might want to wonder into one of their forums and ask one of the users if they would do you the favor of pulling that specific apk from their tab and have them upload it for u.

Why would u not just use peel? I've got at least 5 TV'S @lone nit to mention all of my other players. It is sometimes a pain but works. Maybe the Sony one is that much better?

On the face of it, the sony IR app is much better than peel, it supports sky uk satellite boxes and windows mediacentres, which I'm pretty sure peel doesn't, so I for one would love this app on my tab. I think I'll head over to the sony tab forum.

Peel sucks. Here's why:
1) Add an HDTV alone. So far so good as I can change inputs, channels, and volume on the TV.
2) Go to add a reciever. The self test powers the reciever on and switches inputs but when complete it will NOT save it to the room profile.
3) Start over andthis time tell Peel I use a reciever to adjust my volume. I select my TV and then it takes me straight to setting up the audio portion of the reciever. This saves both to my room profile but completely skips over the portion of setting my TV's inputs to make sure it's right for watching television. Kind of stupid that I have to use my TV remote to switch inputs on the TV now when Peel can/should be doing that for me.
4) Contact Peel and listen to them tell you that it's all the fault of the Galaxy Tab 7.0 + drivers and when ICS is released, with the updated driver, it might be fixed.
I've tried with a number of reciever & television brand combos to the extent of what I have in the house (3 TV's LG, JVC, Samsung and 2 AV Recievers Onkyo, Sony) and it does exactly the same with any combination of them.

Yup with the Sony u can control different equipment by choosing it from the main menu. With peel u can't

Thanks to the Sony guys for giving us the software packages now to start trying to get it to work and thanks to Paul for going over and asking for it

i have tried to get this to install but it wont so im gonna rename it and try to install it from the mnt asec folder. thats where most of my propriatary stuff gets installed on my HTC but i am new to the samsung game
also we may want to take this over to the DEV section and see if anyone in there can work some magic on it?

It would be wonderful if you can get this to work. All of my TVs are Windows Media center based.

ok I tried to install with es explorer. Took it over to the system/app . Then fixed permissions and still no luck. Went to the store and put esfile on a demo Sony and found a bunch of bin files in system/bin don't know if I needed them but pulled em with Bluetooth anyway. Will try to mess with it some more tomorrow.
Btw, Sony s is on ICS and its smooth even with the slower CPU.
Hear that Samsung? Get us some 4.0 and a decent remote app!!!!!!!!

Look in Play App store for Touchsquid app. It now works with the Tab 7 plus and Tab 2. The demo version works with both even though it wasn't very clearly stated that it works with the 7 plus. It definitely does work with the t 7 plus and is very promising. There are two paid version with different capabilities.

For that you're right, but somewhere I read that P6200 get better grades.
What about the screen, which showed better ? I may pick up p6800 because of 800 x 1280 pixels and in p6200 is 600 x 1024 pixels.

What do you think about this ? can take it for 200$ less than P6800.
The main question is whether the gains ICS ?
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_xoom_mz601-3834.php

Friends I decided to take P6800 Galaxy tab 7.7, but still need a small help, can someone tell me this: When link is placed on the facebook page is it show like on computer ( to open a image of the link ) or show as on mobile phone ( just link is showing, no image of it ) I hope I was clear .... because on some phones it only show link when it is published( try to publish something on fb page if you have it and see whether they leave only a link without an image ). This is important to me because I advertise sites on fb and if there is no picture in the link fewer people will watch the content and this would be a big problem..... Thank you in advance

pudup said:
Well when I post through my phone with the facebook app, the picture preview comes. Are you using app or browser?

And I set from app, and from different browser and it's ok when i put it on my profile but when i pu on fb page it's show only a link :/ some times put on the page as if I am not admin ( only link ) so I thought maybe because of different android to work differently because on tablet is 3.2 .

I saw that, but to me it is not necessary because I would not use it as a phone, I would use the phone for calls, I would use the internet over the phone via portable wi-fi hotspot, or via wi-fi at home and the rear camera, I really did not need it again because the mobile is with me all the time wait to see what will be the final spec. if the price is 200-250$ would be acceptable. Just wondering build quality for that price. I read somewhere it will be a display of over 200ppi that would be great

When I was facing the problem on my Nexus 4, after a lot of research i found out that the transit card was creating the problem.
Every time the card came close to the rear of the phone it happened as the phone tries to communicate with the card via NFC. Turning the NFC function off solved the problem. Obviously any other card/device that works with a proximity sensor (like an access card at work) would have a similar effect. Hope it helps.:good:

This is my first time hearing this sound.

Question before buying Mate 8

i really want to buy mate 8 and i love it but i'm afraid from one thing i'm a user that root his phone and use xposed and flash roms
my question is rooting and xposed will work on this phone without problems?
and i think for mate 8 there is no number of custom roms
it is nornal that the phone is new but my question is like after 2 years when the phone stop to recieve update it will be a custom rom for it ? like Cyanogen?

Root yes ,xposed not working, stock ROM is very good with Google now launcher
I don't believe that CM is making ROMs for Mate 8
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-L29 using Tapatalk

Root works, xposed works, no cm ROM in sight but delete a bunch of bloat apps, replace them with Google apps instead, and use layers manager along with theme app for a very close to aosp ROM feel

Have to say, was very anxious to find out how Emui would be in practice. If it would be bloated, ugly, overkill, etc.
But now, after using the device for a few days, can honestly say that I wouldn't want it to be any other way! The amount of things you can change, set or extract techy data from is enormous. Don't want stock Android anymore. Don't want CM13. This is it. Emui rulez! :good:
It's fast, smooth, does it all. No regrets. Can't / won't downgrade to stock/ AOSP / CM

Many people reported that xposed didn't work.
Did it work with you with any modification ?

Mine doesn't even get warm. There are no dots on the screen either. Having a large battery makes it charge a little slower but mine charges fast if I use the original ac adapter and cable.

hi. i read about camera app taking forever to launch. any similar experience? does using another camera app solve the problem?. also how good is the loadspeaker? im coming from s5>nexus6>note edge and they all have pretty loud sound

Hello everybody, I was wondering if someone could tell me the best mate8 model to buy I will be using it in the usa. I'm using the mate2 now and it is a solid mid-ranger. I have unlocked the bootloader and have cm13 running on it now. I would appreciate your suggestions on the mate8 models and why you pick it. Thanks..

I'm interested in buying a Mate 8 and I was wondering if you can shoot RAW pictures using the Mate 8?
I know that it has a "Pro Mode" option but I can't find any videos online showing a full indept review of that feature, so could anyone explain/elaborate on that?
Many thanks in advance!

Most Raw-capable camera apps you can download from the Play Store won't work as well due to crap implementation on Huawei's side:
Shame, really.

If you wish to buy a Huawei phone and need RAW image files, you have to wait for the release of P9 (April 16th) or P9 Plus (May 20th) that both offer this functionality.

Thank you guys for the reply.
That's really sad to hear then. My LG G4 recently died on me with the infamous boot loop problem and I can't get it fixed anytime soon. I might wait for reviews of the new P9 but I do like the Mate 8 as well though. I'd just have to sacrifice RAW function then =/

It's not only a matter of RAW vs non-RAW... P9/P9 Plus dual camera has been yet tested by some reviewers and defined a significant step forward compared to Mate 8 (but still worse than Samsung S7).

You are right, there's more to it than just RAW, but having RAW function is usually beneficial as you can process the picture later and not rely solely on the phone's image processor. Although if the phone's image processor is good to begin with then you shouldn't need RAW.
My G4 had RAW and I quite liked it, managed to get some good shots during my holiday before it died on me(luckily it died after my vacation was over, lol).

Not very good, no. Yes, lots of options but don't buy this phone for the camera. Much, much better alternatives (like your G4).

You can root your phone and use Titanium Backup. Or if it's a game you're talking about, just connect your game to Google Play Games to save data.

Thank u so much for your kind reply and suggestions, at least anyone replied here and trying to resolving my issue after 3 days waiting
My friend its about "Subway surfers"
I achived more then 12 million coins, 400 keys and 750 Hoverboards etc.. but unfortunately its not server based game which can connect with Google play games so only way out to save my all data is to backup and restore which can easily i manage if i get new Huawei device, but i am going to change my brand now
Rooting will be cause of warranty cancellation of my phone, and selling value will decrease without warranty also
Anyway thanks again for ur effort..

Oh. So maybe you can try this app. You can use it to backup and sync your apps across devices even without root. I haven't tried it yet though so I can't confirm.
