[Q] IR Blaster - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to know the state of the IR blaster developement for AOSP ROMS/Builds. As I gather now it does not work but is anyone working on reverse engineering this problem?
Also, it does work on any Sense based builds right?
Please fill in the blanks or correct anything that is wrong with my statements/Questions.
Regards!

I know that there are a few AOSP/CM based roms that do have a working IR blaster. The only problem is that you have to find a ir blasting application that takes the place of the HTC TV app.
And yes, every stock HTC Sense rom will have a functioning IR Blaster and HTC TV unless specified otherwise.

It works on GPE since 4.3
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

I run AOKP which was just pushed to 4.3. I'll try updating tomorrow and see. I'm not sure the GPE drivers would have made it over yet, or be supported by the kernel for AOKP (sethyx). I'll have a look around again though as see if I can get it working.
Any ideas on a good controller app to try out?

Is Smart remote that app that was pulled from the GP store and then open sourced by the Dev?
Anyway, I updated to a 4.3 version of AOKP and grabbed a decent IR App. It's definitely working now, which is great. =p Now any recommendations for an IR receiver compatible with openELEC?

Hopefully it will fix the distorted Bluetooth issue I'm having.
I'm guessing it will add quick reply from notifications as on AOSP ROMs, unless HTC screws it, somehow.

i thought quick reply for messaging was a CM feature?
I'm wondering if perhaps we can expect to see a system dump from the "Google Edition" release, or perhaps an unofficial release of the STABLE CM 10.1; seeing as how the Sprint variant of the HTC One, received a nightly, as of yesterday.
I'm just hopeful that we'll have a more fully-functional version of Android 4.2.2.

Maybe for messaging, but Notification actions in general:
Expandable, actionable notifications.
Android has always put you in control when it comes to staying notified and connected. Just swipe down from the top of the screen to see all your notifications in one place. Late for a meeting or missed a call? Take action in an instant directly from the notifications shade.

Some of these don't apply, and some have been implemented by HTC already, but anyway for reference.

Ya seems to me to be pointless to buy the nexus experience One if you are a current owner and can just flash a "dump"
I just don't know if I can do without Zoe and the IR blaster. I have tortured so many peeps with the IR blaster and the TV/cable box at their houses or hotels it has been priceless!!!

Though I doubt the Google version of the one will have Zoe, I imagine it will use the ir blaster. I don't think they're changing anything physically on the phone so itd be a little odd if they didn't include that functionality.

Nope, no IR Blaster, no zoes, no image sense, no fm radio.. Boom sound will still work though, kinda.

They said it would not enclude Zoe or the ir blaster software.

I never really cared for LS widgets on AOSP. But if you really want, you will be able to delete the HTC lockscreen and use the AOSP one that has the widgets. So it's not like they are completely gone.

That is indeed a very good point. Would be pretty easy to fix up too.

[REQUEST] Sense TV App.apk + Sense Gallery for One GE?

I found some uploads for the camera.apk but I haven't noticed any threads for the TV Remote app...Anyone have this for upload?
Also curious about sense gallery, to be able to make the zoe films, afaik you can only do that in the sense gallery. Is this even possible to get without having sense as launcher?
Not for sure so dont quote me on the but I have read on alot of pages the htc gallery zoe doesnt work on the Google Editions as for the remote i have no idea but if the ir blaster still works on the GE but their is a great remote app for htc called smart ir remote for htc one i just couldn't find any links to it if i find a link ill post it

The or blaster is one of the main reasons why I can't down grade to the google edition roms.
You guys can try this ROM. It's sense and you can choose some Google edition apps. I love it

GPe 4.3 has removed the sense framework that was in GPe 4.2. Its doubtful you'll ever see any ported apps.

"TV" like app.

Hey guys. Unlike many posts I've read, I actually love the TV app that comes stock with the One and its one of the many things that really make me reconsider rooting & using different ROMs. I love having the IR blaster and I think its one of the many things that makes this phone unique. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good app that is similar to the TV app that I could find in the play store (or elsewhere) that I could use without stock. Thanks!

Smart ir remote is the best one i tried. Here you can see a review:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...es-wet-dream-but-it-comes-at-a-premium-price/
The IR blaster will not work currently with AOSP roms though correct? Only Sense based ones IIRC.
The IR blaster will only work on Sense ROMs and 4.3 Google Edition ROMs. AOSP and 4.2.2 Google Edition don't have the drivers for the IR blaster.
I also like the TV app and would like to see if it could get ported to a GE 4.3 ROM. I tried moving the TV apk and IR blaster apk to the GE ROM but the app kept force closing

CM11 Keyboard Dock and Mouse problem

I was curious if anyone else has stumbled across the issue I am having with my TF701. I upgraded to CM11 and installed the GAPPS with no issue and the ROM works quite well. However the ASUS keyboard dock now has some dead keys i.e. WIFI Toggle, Bluetooth Toggle, Disable Mousepad Toggle, Auto Screen Brightness, Screenshot, and Settings Hotkey. Is there any way to fix this? I have tried editing the Keyboard.kl files with no results. I also extracted the ASUS keyboard.apk but it will not install. I also tried putting it in the sys/apps/ folder and editing it's permissions to match all the other apps but no result.
Lastly I have a BT Mouse which connects well but the native behaviour of the Mouse in CM11 is different than when I was running JB. When on JB a left click was the same as a screen touch and a right click was back. on CM11 both buttons are standard screen touch. Is there a way to remap this? I moved to CM11 because the native firmware has some antenna issues. When streaming audio to a BT device the internet dies. on CM11 this issue seems to be fixed due to its custom Kernel (I assume) but these other functions are also important to me. Any ideas????
As far as I have read the extra keys don't work in CM as it has something to do with the kernel. The CM developer doesn't have a dock so hasn't been able to really look into fixing it. He is working on getting a dock eventually.
I know nothing about the mouse however I would guess it is the same thing as stock dock touchpad works as you would like however it does not on CM.

Is there a Vanilla Android ROM available similar to a Google Play Edition Device?

Is there any ROM out there that will get rid of touch wiz and keep all IR and NFC functionality similar to a Google Play Edition device? I hate Touch Wiz, but the hardware on this looks very solid.
Thanks.

There are 4 AOSP roms being developed right now for this device.
Slim
CM
Liquid Smooth
REMIX
not sure if any will have working IR, but NFC should be working soon.

IR Blaster is working on Liquid Smooth. Use it to control my TV. NFC is working as well. Used on Google Wallet earlier today.

When you say Vanilla, I believe you're wanting a Nexus 5 experience. (4.4.4).
At the moment, development is not going backwards. We do have Android Lollipop-like Roms though. Which is the closest you will get.
Liquid Smooth is the best Pure Android rom we have for this device so far.
IR Blaster and NFC confirmed working.

You can use the S-Pen but you will not have Air Command and any other proprietary apps that stock roms come with.
