IR Blaster working? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I have tried 2 different IR Blaster apps to control my TV with and both don't seem to work. I have the AT&T version of the S4 with Cyanogenmod 10.1 on it and I dont know if the IR Blaster is just not functional right now or it is working but the apps dont work. How can I test this?

ir does not work on anything non-touchwiz based roms

There are 2 possible options. It will be available by some kind of modified framework that will allow the drivers to be installed or...(and this is the most probable answer) some dev will cook up his own drivers.

someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I believe "S" Apps need TW to function.
There are many alternatives for S health in the Play Store. Since the Google S4 is coming out soon hopefully we'll get drivers for the IR blaster.

Any S-apps or features will not work on cm/aokp. These need tw-framework to run. And honestly I've ran cm/aokp roms on all my phones since the day I got my first android. This is the first Android phone that I'm actually content with using touchjizz and all of it's features. Really an amazing phone once rooted.

what have you done since rooting to make it moar amazing? I haven't really done much yet.
Just push them to /system/apps/ and find out. Won't hurt anything. Some TW system apps used to work in CM on the skyrocket.

S apps require the touchwiz frame work to function at least most of them do.

[Q] Halo on TW?

Is it possible to get the halo notifications on TW? I know it can now be done on all AOSP ROMs.

It's now a open source feature so it's just a matter of time before it will.
Not likely unless someone makes it a stand alone app.

On tw this will probably be ur only hope unless someone super talented can intergrate the stuff into tw framework seems like a lot of work

[Q] ROMs that don't disable IR Blaster?

I'm just curious if there are any ROMs that a person could flash to their S4 SGH-i337 without losing access to the IR Blaster? I am currently running CM 10.1 and I love it, but I would really like to still be able to use apps like WatchON or Smart Remote without having to go back to the bloated and bogged down stock AT&T firmware.
Looking around I haven't really been able to find much about it. From what I understand is that it either won't ever happen or it might happen on 4.3 when they devs have more time to crack it... I haven't seen anything about any working with a custom ROM currently.
So, I was just wondering if anyone knows of any ROMs that still have access to the IR Blaster?
Any with touchwiz should be fine as long as you download samsung crappack. Correct me if i am wrong. But AFAIK its just aosp/aokp/cm that doesnt suplort due to the nature of requiring touchwiz framework.
Your right aosp tons will not get the functions of the extra sensors like the IR

Unless Samsung for some reason loves us and gives us the drivers. But that is never going to happen.

Also, most of the touchwiz roms have removed the bloatware, att seems to be the only one that bogged down my phone really bad as I have the samsung crappack on it and it runs great. I am running MDOB with no issues. Night and day difference without the ATT bloat.
Hope I'm not breaking any rules I'm on mint v1 and all the Samsung stuff is thier without att stuff, and it's highly customizable. I'm sure thier are others but thats what I've used

Yeah I don't either as the GE version has the disabled. As the drivers are propriety and closed sourced I don't see much of a chance outside of the next nexus having got the sensors

YOu have to understand Samsungs end game which is Tizen. Their closed sourced OS. The give you the S4 and then the GE edition. They get you hooked on the gimmics they give you which means you will be more inclined to buy their Tizen devices. Also it is cheaper just to disable the sensors they remake the whole phone which is what would be needed.

I'm Coming To GN3 to Dev! I have a few questions

Hey guys! After finally finding out that i will be moving to Verizon (Finally after 4 years of T-mobile) i will be purchasing the Galaxy Note 3 and would like to begin development. First i want to say that i am very excited and thrilled to be able to develop for you guys! I do have a few questions so i can see how im going to plan out the development.
Is DSIXDA's Kitchen Supported for this GN3?
Any CM Builds Out There?
What do you guys want to see in a ROM?
It will be a couple of weeks before i will officially have the device in my hands but I am planning early. I do have ROM development skills and have a good background of it. (Check my signature for some of my work). I take pride in being one of the younger developers on these forums and its very cool to get to do what i do and enjoy it. Please help me by answering these questions for me. Also if there are any ROM devs that see this please comment or PM me because i would really like to get to know you! Thanks again guys!

Not sure what DSIXDA's Kitchen is.
No CM do to most of us having a locked bootloader, there's 20 people with the dev edition but most of us have retail and use safe strap to loads roms. (which I prefer anyway because of the multi boot)
I want to see something amazing
welcome to the party and verizon, you will amazed how good verizon service is, even though verizon is a d bag!!!!!

Oh i didn't know there were 2 different Note 3s. I haven't officially purchased the Note 3 yet but I do plan on buying it through Verizon with a 2yr contract. Do they offer the Dev edition with a 2yr contract? If so i will probably go with that one instead of the retail version.

No they don't offer the dev through Verizon 2 year contract. On a plus side Hashcode has a retail version so we should be good with Safe Strap for the next 6 months. We currently have two amazing roms with a 3rd on the way, you can be the amazing 4th :good:

It's called Eclipse (ROM); the developer is "Nitro." There's a bounty thread in the General forum. It's Touch wiz based but the look is AOSP, menus, apps, everything. Not just holo blue themed. (And still keeps touchwiz "S-features")

This. The only notes that would see this would be developer edition because of full recovery and working kernels. And yeah build one off stock kernel would be very impressive if it's even possible. Surprised nobody has even beta or alpha builds for any carrier though

DSIXDA Android Kitchen Support? Aroma support?

As of yesterday i have officially gotten the Galaxy Note 3 in my hands! With that being said i am now going to start development and try and get an awesome ROM out to you guys! Before i start i must know if DSIXda's android kitchen works with this device. And also if Aroma Installer is supported with this device. Really looking forward to start development and get a few Roms out there for you guys but i gotta know this first. Also feel free to let me know what you would like to see in a ROM, especially what kind of theme. My ROMs do have a history of having some kick a** sound mods in them so do expect that!
What was wrong with the first thread you started about this?

well, your reasoning might be good. Is it the Samsung crapware on the bootloader? I am not being funny, it's just that your answer was very brief and I couldn't see whether you had done any dev work on your member profile. If you have a particular and valid reason I would be interested because I am just learning and atm trying to figure out how to complile a cm11 for n3 9005 model. :laugh:

I'm a note 2 device maintainer for aokp but that's irrelevant. Locked bootloader + no way to flash kernels + no loki/kexec type option = no aosp roms of any kind. Don't waste your time.
