Using this ROM on Grouper

Hi,

I understand that this ROM is for TILAPIA (the G3 version) but would it be possible to run it on Grouper? Has anybody tried it?

Thanks

Why would you want to do that? Since Grouper has it's own official version of this ROM...

Very good work here man think you can go quite far with this,

I request though that you can add custom code support as there are TONS of devices that the mainstream apps currently available dont support, anyway best of luck and great work!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Thanks for encouraging me. Sweated real hard on the design activity layouts and android graphic matrix; you can put icon there, positions, zooming, background etc.. Need to work on alignment sizing, and grouping etc... Also the fun was on the scraping remotecentral in the device db view...

I'm not sure what you mean by custom code you mean other code formats than pronto code?

Also if anyone can tell me if gs4 IR supports learning that be great or how to find out...

Thanks

Great work, customisability is what Im waiting for...what a shame it has not learning function :( ...after the last update I have no problem with Watchon to remote common devices like TV, DVD, etc. But I miss support for air conditioning, DVB-T TV card for notebook. Is it possible to add these types of devices to your support?

edit: OK, so every app I saw on google play is based on internet database, but what if I have file with code to my device? Is it possible to add support for manual IR codes file upload for some special devices? There is possibility to download files from some sites (e.g. http://irremote.psiloc.com)

BTW, Im in for alpha testing if you want... ;)

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Customisability is what Im waiting for : Yes me too :) as I used and continue to use Pronto remote and these one IMO are the most customizable out there.

So the basis of this project is to make it as customizable as Pronto remotes...that is ambitious:)

Having a remote on your Galaxy S4 is NICE but if you think about it will you use it really as such? an universal remote control? I don't think so BUT you might in couple years ( when the device is obsolete ) to use it as such assuming it does a good job as any universal remote...then it makes sense.. The GS4 beam though seems relatively narrow / weak well comparing with a pronto remote, it is OK but need to be more aimed to the device... Hence using a Gateway to something running on a PC or other devices is a +.

The "activities" in the APP is kind of like launcher ( of course less nice currently ) where you can send IR from the GS4 or actually anything via TCP to a server to either send again IR via USB-UIRT or Plusgwise (a smart plug that monitors also energy consumption). This gateway part I will provide later because the server is written using Python and actually runs on my FritzBox router and it be I guess to complicated for most people to MOD it to make it work for them assuming they have the USB-UIRT dongle or even Plugwise smart plugs. So when I heard GS4 will have IR I though it is time I start to share what I did and later one this gateway will come. Also button could be coupled to scripts...using

android-scripting

Furthermore using DEVICE like JB Lightman : This is a cute device that runs by itself a little box that convert IR to most cheap FM switchers or what ever you can think of to further control you house. For example I was out of my home for a month, remotely can activate web cam ( power one the cheap FM plug ) then switch on TV via IR change channel what ever...as if at home...

Does not make much sense but can simulate presence....

But I miss support for air conditioning, DVB-T TV card for notebook. Is it possible to add these types of devices to your support?

....but what if I have file with code to my device? Is it possible to add support for manual IR codes

Yes you can directly in the APP see the picture attached surely it be a pain to enter in from the app (long codes) . The DEVICE database is an XML and as such you can edit it with what ever you want.

Cheers

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Yes. This will by the way stay a fully FREE APP even if posted on Google.

I hope by this Sunday to post on my FTP the APP and the required files. I need to clean up / remove couple stuff like ICONS that are probably copyrighted.

Some other ICONS are freely avail on the internet and I will leave them. In any case you can just create your own stuff...

Also will need to do a README for basic usage. Well this should not be complicated basically the process is

1)install APK

2)copy the REMOTE folder to your SDCARD; this be the place activities (your remote screens) XML files and DATABASE XML will be saved as well as a folder containing PICTURES backgrounds etc for your remote screen and buttons

3)Go in device database and fetch remote codes and test one or all in a list picker ( hopefully you will find some of your devices) else try to find the pronto code of your device and edit the XML or edit it in the APP ( good luck that be a pain for long codes)

4)select the working code => this creates the DEVICE DB

5)Menu : Design an activity layout ; add controls ( buttons ) zoom places them where you want. This is currently OK but there is no alignment to grid or to other controls (align top bottom etc) implemented currently ( this will come) so placement work but is is a pain i.e.: to align/size neatly buttons

6)Save your screen layout ( the first one be your HOME and home buttons you create will jump to your other defined activities). Create layout for TV, STEREO etc....

7)Edit activity actions : Here you can BIND to the button in your activities to ANOTHER activity (JUMP) or AN IR code...this is a list so you can perform multiple actions jump to activity and or send IR codes. Pause / delay not implemented currently)

8)finally in menu select USE REMOTE. The DEFAULT activity name ( screen you create ) must be called HOME and use.

What is badely missing

1)alignment of controls in activity creation, grid aligments, possibly grouping / moving zoom of the grouped pictures

2)Better remote UI IE: when pressing button showing button pressed / de-pressed.

3)handling long press

4)Labels in activities and possibly standard object CheckBox, Radio, Spinner, ScrollBar

5)many more improvements. Like generating automatically an activity screen from a device found on the internet so that later on for each button an customer ICON can be set

6)Features : Since the activity are XML serialized as well as the DB it be nice and more convenient to create activities / devices from a PC making a .NET app...then transfer the XML file to the GS4.

The state though currently is functional for me and quite handy.

anyway more on this next week.

Cheers

For MySky HD issue, after you setup TV select "set top box", select "Sky" under "brand" and after some failed codes it found the right code. It works for me (MySky HD Italy)
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] krabman:
Good work and I'm going to be following along. I've done several prontos setups, both the old and the newer pro version so I have a couple thoughts. Its very difficult to have much automation without being able to set delays. Sometimes even direct dialing a tv channel wont work without an appropriate delay. You may want to reconsider putting this out there until you do add them because you are not going to be able to develop the application very far when people cant do (some) basic functions. You cant get feedback on something when people run into show stoppers before they can give it to you.

A would further this and say that having some basic four ways, keypads, and transport buttons along with at least adding the ability to add a text label to buttons would also be helpful as setting up a bunch of buttons and then trying to remember what they do can be a hard and really slow you down. I used to do a quick mock up of differnet setups on my prontos and to save time on what might be changed anyways I wouldn't label or customize them but it turned out the extra confusion took more time to sort out than it was to simply throw a quick label on them which I could change later and I eventually started doing that way from scratch.

I also agree with your thoughts on a pc interface. I know a lot of people wouldn't want that but if you get into these setups you end up having a lot of pages, jumps, macros, buttons, icons, etc and it would be hugely easier to deal with it all on the pc where you can view multiple pages similtaneously.

Anyhow good luck with it. I likely jump on when you get a little further along.

" I've done several prontos setups, both the old and the newer pro version "

I can see the pronto aficionado here.... I'm the same currently TSU9300. Lovely remote but so expensive :) even more than the SG4 ( 700 EUR 3 / 4 years ago!!). But still the best out there... So the goal is to try to mimic one in case it dies on me... I say mimic cause I know it is challenging at least to me as I'm relatively new to android programing and have relatively few hours a week on this project. But that is a challenge and I will learn a lot about android did already. All is there in android to get things close to these marvelous remotes... I'm a hobbyist "developer" and ONLY ANDROID allows this so hat down to Android...

PC interface: in a much, much later stage assuming I managed these challenges. Designing screen would be so much more easier yet I feel with Android it it possible to get it done really well all is there for that...

"Anyhow good luck with it "

I surely will need it. Hopefully this thread will not be a waste of anyone time, for the one that will try it...

I have posted the download link for the people that like to try it.

Keep in mind this is alpha yet for me it is usable to send IR and have nice customizable screen to do that. I will work on a better explanation of the app soon as the main thread explanation might be cryptic but there since we are on xda it should be obvious how to use the app

cant get passed remote gate page? just black screen?

galaxy s4 stock rooted!

then keeps crashing ?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Hi

Thanks for try.

That is odd

Only thing I can think off is that you might NOT have the REMOTE folder in the right location or when you un-ziped it you just move the extracted folder to the right location but you might have /REMOTE/REMOTE sub folder which is wrong. I use this folder and OTHER structure in this folder hard-coded in the application....So it WILL crash if the APP does not find the folder in right location or if the structure is not right

What you should have is this structure in the GS4 internal storage as shown with the samsung "my file" app

/storage/emulated/0/REMOTE

DEVICES.xml

BUTTONS

ACTIVITY

BACKGROUND

See the snapshot I attached in the first post.

So then if it does not crash on statup you have a black screen

Opening the menu and selecting "Use Remote" should show the HOME screen. IF not then not sure why at this point

I will improve this soon so you can choose specific location for this folder and places to look for backrounds and icons.

Let me know if you still cannot make it work.

Me I'm on GS4 9505 ROOT with OMEGA3...but I doubt this is the reason it work for me and not for you as the same APP is OK on the NOTE 2 ( of course no infra red but a gateway).

Thanks again for trying
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] jona196313:
you were right! remote/remote

got it on but cant test as no LG support!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Ha !

You got me scared...

"got it on but cant test as no LG support!!!

Sure I don't have LG TV though have a projector from them

I leave to the user the CREATION of a DEVICE DB for there own DEVICE.

So you can enter the code manually or if you are lucky find it via the internet IR lookup in the Device DB view. I fetch codes from remotecentral.

At this point you can create an remote activity screen and "BIND" a button to the code found in your Device DB.

So did you check the DEVICE DB and internet lookup ?

I'm quite sure there is quite some chance LG TVs have good chance to be there...

With the Internet IR LOOKUP you can quickly test the code of a brand device ( touching the list picker) if it works select the checkbox and other function you like

if it does not work try other devices from the brand clicking back up to you find one.

If you don't find one working and are frustrated then try to find it on another site. IF you find it then copy and past in the DEVICE DB the code found

NOTE: currently you cannot add a row in the device DB using the top "+" but you can add rows from the internet IR LOOKUP even if the code does not work ( so that it inserts a row)

At this point you can rename your device and past the correct code )

I will fix that (adding a row in the device DB ) this is simple and stupid I did not do

ALSO you can edit the DEVICES.xml fine see its structure and try to fetch codes..

The code fetching is the weak point here without learning... with a gateway and devices like usb-uirt it is not an issue. I'm sure it is possible to find PRONTO code for most of devices out there though.

would it be hard to get this app to work on aosp/cm roms?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Hi

I'm not sure as I don't use these ROMs currently. Now sending IR is not that complicated

see

https://github.com/rngtng/IrDude/blob/master/src/com/rngtng/irdude/MainActivity.java

So I assume this is from the kernel and if the kernel supports it then it should be fine.

Also I do not want to target ONLY for the build in IR since this cannot learn and it is relatively weak beam and have a GS4 as a remote would be quite expensive.. non the less it is always nice to have like those that like to switch there airco etc... Having a gateway to a machine having USB-UIRT is nice and what I'm working on. All the rest is user interface currently it is all alpha... Non the less I believe with patience and acceptance of some issues one can design nice screen; these are simply just sending IR ( no repeat and long press for the moment) ..It might be convenient for some. also nice is the internet IR lookup that allow testing IR code... I can think doing some fun stuff sneaky with that :)

I've updated the APP (the link is on the first page) improving stuff here and there starting to put in alignment of controls ( only make same size and align top / left currently).

I have only few moment on this and I will take time improving it to something I hope good in the future.

For the moment one can try it, would not hurt I guess.

Thanks for your interest

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] 81nx:
How are you running this?

From what I can tell. so far this is exactly what I'd like to use in the future.

Though currently, whenever I try to test the IR signals it force closes. I imagine this is due to my running CM10.1 (mayhaps a lack of IR support in its kernel or some such). But again, the app looks great otherwise... Just wish I could help test it out more.

Are you running this with the stock rom, if so maybe I can wrestle with Touchwiz long enough to help out a wee bit more?
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] questionmark:
Hi

I'm on OMEGA ROM 3.0 with there default kernel. Sending IR is no problem for me using the piece of code I was referring on some threads ago.

So I assume the lack of IR driver in CM 10.1 must be the reason. I also have the GTAB 7.7 (without IR) and as you might know some version of these tablet came with build in IR but CM / paranoid ROM did not support it.

IF anyone is interested about the GATEWAY server this is written in Python, it is really nasty coding but it works let me know. I run the server on my router and on the router there is a USB-UIRT device. These are cheap... I also have the MS IR transceiver and think looking at winlirc. The current application I have posted as no config (commented out) to talk to the server but I can do that easily. So if anyone is into programing I don't mind passing the source of the gateway eventually of the APP if someone or more are seriously interested in improving it and find it worth it. Source of the APP is also messy :)

Nice, thats what I really miss on my S4. Why all the marketing on a function if its only half. If they would've put a learn function on it then we would be speaking YES. And I don't think that a learning function would have been so hard to make by the software guru's on Samsungs payroll.

But as always this is just a taste and they will add it for the S5, but untill then I will folow your app development
