Remote Control App - Xperia Tablet Z General

I recently installed CM to my Tab Z and I'm looking for a good Remote Control app. I loved the IR blaster on this thing.

There is a thread about this in ZL forums, I guess

The app constantly tells me to update it... Not the best looking app either. I'm surprised no one has ported Sony's IR app

Ir blaster

Just wondering what other devices you guys are using your note 3 to control. I didn't even know you could use it for things other than a TV. In the xda YouTube video review of the note 3, the reviewer mentioned he was using his note to control the camera he was using to record.

It can control anything that uses IR to receive signals and messages.
How can you use it for other things? Only options in the watch on app are Tvs and top boxes

What would you like it to do?
Of course, I use it with:
My TV's
My Dish Sets
My Projector
My Nikon
And right now I'm in the works of making my garage door work as well.
PD. I recommend using the smart remote app instead of the watchon one.

What app are you using ?
This small addon is one of the major reasons I will upgrade from note 2. Anyone tried controlling AC ?

I haven't tried with mine cause it's not working since last week (yeah I keep forgetting to fix it). Will report in this thread later if you want.

Best one I've found so far. Simple and quick.
The Watch On app is the one that came with your phone with a fuscia icon and a tv BUT if your signature is right your phone doesn't have an IR Blaster nor this Samsung app

Just started looking into using the IR and noticed that app you pointed to is on sale this Easter.
I am using this

It works with my TV, BD player, Settop box(Tata sky)

IR app besides the Lg one

Does anyone know of an IR app that will work other than the LG one ? Im running CM but I would love to have the remote function back. Thank you

IR is not just an app. It needs to be supported in the framework first.

I'm wondering about this too. Would Unified Remote work since it has IR functions now? I may just buy it and check because it's a great app regardless but if anyone knows of an alternative that does work with CyanogenMod I'd like to hear about it.

Read above, no IR app is going to work on any AOSP ROM at this point.
That's unfortunate. Back to stock I go then.

Doesn't the HTC One Google play edition have an IR remote app? (that is a question. I don't know)
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The HTC One Google Play edition does have an IR blaster app, but as stated previously no app can fix this - it is something that needs to be added into CM first.

Multiwindow roms for p311x models?

I've been combing the forum but there's just too many roms to look through.
Does anyone know if there is one with built in true multiwindow? I know Pac has the popup option but that's pretty useless for real multitasking
Working ir blaster would be a big plus too

"Disable" option in app menu...?!

I've noticed a very useful disable option for almost every app in the 4.3 Android version...! I wanted to root my Xperia very much to disable the crap from Sony and Google and save my battery life... And this option is everything that I need... When some app is disabled, she disappear from the menu and it can be found only in app menu under "disabled ". And it's great because it work for almost every app - Google Chrome, Sony Select and the other garbage... I've searched in Google - there was nothing, so I share it with you.... I'm sorry if it's in the wrong section....

Have it since 4.2. It is not a feature of 4.3.
Sent from my Xperia Z using XDA Premium 4 mobile app.
Nothing new about that... That feature goes around since the early 4.x... But it is a handy feature indeed... On a cheaper Phone like for work you can simply disable almost everything and this is all in favour of the battery...

Yes, a handy tool indeed... Mind you, not all apps can be disabled.

[Q] (REQ) Watchon Type App

The only thing I miss from my Samsung is the Watchon app. I have loaded it on my G2 but of course the remote doen not work. Even the HTC M8 that I test rode for a week before returning it have a TV app built in like Watchon. Does anyone know of a similar app that will work on the G2 that gives a channel guild and working remote? Thanks for any leads.
I've been looking for something like that also for awhile and still haven't found anything that works like watchon. I'll keep looking until something comes up.
Maybe this.
