Uses I've found:

1. Emergency replacement when you can't find a remote or the batteries have died

2. For turning up TV's in pubs that put the football on but won't turn the volume up! Used it a few times for that purpose!
[One (M8) General] Verrocio:
- Pictbridge.

- IRDA capable printers.

- Heat mapping. (using the irda plus a separate 8MP or higher camera)

Finally maybe a longshot but

- Distance finder.

Im an Amateur Photographer, i find this phone useful for the shoots i do, not only can i use the htc to connect my DSLR to and use for live view and shoot from the phone, to cut back on cables and release remotes i sometimes use the IR to wirelessly trigger and time shots when im doing Night shoots, the moon and stuff and star trails, it helps so much to cut out and camera shake whatsoever by downloading the nikon remote on google to control the DSLR, thats one of the things that attracted me to HTC, not many phones have IR these days, not sure if the M10 or the M8s has it, but the iclusion of IR would definitley influence my next upgrade.

Long Live HTC...

IR on mobiles is now history. Samsung has dropped it and so has HTC on the new HTC 10. You can buy an IR remote for your camera for £1.98 on ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ML-L3-IR-...418028?hash=item2a5e38f72c:g:BDMAAOSwnH1WY~Gc

Yes there is that, which i already have. BUT, Its not strictly true that IR has been completely Dropped, Certain Models do appear especially with the IR, eg, Galaxy s4, s5, One M8, Sony Xperia Z Ultra etc etc etc, but my point was theres a lot of Photography apps on my M8 that i use, so to be able to link it to my DSLT, which doesnt have live view is a godsend because i can sit back, open the shutter for 20 mins on a Long Exp, have a smoke and brew, look at my phone and see that the app is telling me that im approaching the 20 mins, click the button on my phone again, done.

OH i forgot, theres also the point that i love to annoy folk, so going to mates house and turning his tv on and off every few minutes is quite amusing, i swear he thinks his house is haunted, ha ha, (Thatll teach him for watching Emmerdale, the off button does come in handy after all)

[One (M8) General] redpoint73:
Those are all old devices. The point of the quote was that Samsung and HTC both dropped the IR blaster with this year's flagship phones (Sammy S7 and HTC 10) - although the LG retained the IR blaster with the G5. It seems like manufacturers thought it was a cool feature to include for a while, but they realized not many people used it. At least, probably not popular enough to justify the expense and space taken by the IR hardware.

Myself, I thought it was really cool at first, to use my phone as a TV remote. But it turned out, I really don't use it much for that.

In any case, IR is a really antiquated, 80s type technology. Bluetooth and WiFi are probably the way forward, both for controlling DSLRs and TVs.
[One (M8) General] RogerL:
Does anyone know of any apps which are able to read & learn an IR command from an existing remote & program it in? I have an HDMI switcher but can't find an app which supports it, & the remote I have only works from about a metre away!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chetqwerty:
Works for me from the toggle but not the volume up button. Tried a bunch of times, no luck. On Hyper you would have to push power button to light the screen, shut off screen, then the volumn up button would turn on the torch. Tried that too, no luck. Thanks though, having it on a toggle is more than i had before!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] r_hippy:
Yep.. They work independent of each other.. The toggle Flashlight / torch I added.. The torch for screen off the volume rocker I just enabled the setting.. The code to enable it must of changed slightly or it was pulled out completely like if you remember you can enable some toggles but they no longer work because the code was complete removed..

Kind of what they did with Blocking Mode / dormant mode.

And andybones pulled all the code and added it back..

Since then it was added back after me7..

Will see how things go.

Thanks for your feed back.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] biglil1:
Did you flash them in order? What other mods are you using? I'm running JrKruse nc2 rom and it worked fine outside of the vol rocker plus r-hippy's inverted missed call notification but I believe it was when I flashed a theme that broke systemui.

All I can say now is check the file structure of some of your mods and see if they conflict.

I read it even works with the S5 launcher.

Once you flash any other mods that have systemui or secsetting apks it will stop the function of the flashlight or systemui depending on what other files it's calling/ using. You will need to apply the changes to the same files to keep all mods.

Need to s-off Htc desire x for installing busybox

how can i do this?

thanks in advance
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
It is possible to S-OFF, just look into Original Android Developement or at rumrunners.us. But you don't need it to install busybox, you just need an unsecure kernel. Install any custom kernel from here you want, they are all unsecure. Then, you need to remount system partition as writable and then you can install busybox. Another option is to flash it via recovery. Good luck!
[Windows RT General] bridgeofstraws:
Hello,

I've been following xda and using a lot of the already compiled Windows RT apps for a little while now. I've decided I'd like to try my hand at compiling a few especially getting libFFI fully functional with Python on ARM. The only problem is when I try to follow no2chem's guide here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2096820. I can't find a version of Visual Studios that has the ARM cross compilers. I base this on the fact that my install doesn't have "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\x86_ARM" nor "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V120\Platforms\ARM" exist after installation. I've tried both digging up Visual Studio 2012 Express and trying the new Visual Studios 2013 Express (Windows Desktop versions)

Would anyone be kind enough to provide me a link to the proper Visual studios to use? I hope I don't need a MSDN subscription to get the proper beta or developer preview.

Thank you so very much. I really am grateful for all the wonderful things you people have done for Windows RT. It really makes the RT so much more useful.

Bridgeofstraws
[Windows RT General] acrossland:
I don't know for certain, but I would wager that the Express editions do not have the required binaries or libraries. I use Visual Studio 2012 Premium to do my RT cross-compiles. Full VS is definitely expensive, but you can use VS 2012 or VS 2013 on a trial basis for 30 or 60 days for free.
[Windows RT General] irony_delerium:
The last time I built something, as I recall, I had both the version for Windows Desktop and for Modern apps installed - the one for Modern apps has the ARM compilers and configuration included with it (since it's for building Windows Store apps, which if they target ARM and include native code, need those compilers). I don't recall the order I installed them, though I think it was Modern and then Desktop.
[Windows RT General] bridgeofstraws:
Thank you acrossland and irony_delerium!

It seems it is as simple as installing both VS2012 Express for Windows Desktop (http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=34673) and VS2012 Express for Win8 (http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=30664). I haven't looked into VS2013 because I develop on Win7 and VS2013 doesn't seem to work on Win7.

G2 Xposed, G2 Tweakbox, App Settings, SwipeBack, Greenify, RootCloak. Tinted Status Bar once G2 Tweakbox fixes the nav bar button colors when using it, since I like the amount of control it provides over G2 Xposed's very user friendly but less tweakable implementation.
[Verizon LG G2] ECrispy:
I have Tweakbox and don't feel like running G2 Xposed also, they both seem to do the same things mostly. I bought Tweakbox, maybe I will buy the other one too if there's a reason. Can you run both at same time - I'd imagine not?

I added XVoice+ (awesome for Google Voice users), Tinted status bar, MinMinGuard.
[Verizon LG G2] Lawlrus:
I run both because what one doesn't have, the other does. They work find in tandem but you need to mess around with it at first to see what interferes with what.

I like the battery icons on tweakbox and the nav bar theme.

Currently using G2Xposed (unpaid) specifically to disable the usb and headset animations that LG adds. I also use Gravity Box (KK) for the Statusbar tweaks. I'm unable to change the lockscreen from the LG vendor version and was hoping that either G2Xposed or Gravity Box would help add some customization, but not much works on that front without an AOSP lockscreen. Also note that the Gravity Box guys don't recommend installing it with a custom ROM like Cyanogen, but I am currently running Malladus with no issues.

Cool.

Upon which CWM version is this based? Note fundamental differences between newer 6.0.* after June 16 -- can flash new Kitkat ROMs and older 5.* which flash older ROMs.

Because of space limitations -- whole business must fit < 5 meg, functionality such as partitioning SDcard was removed from the 6.0.* versions.

What do we have in this version?

Unable to flash!

Can't flash the image file by "CWM 6.0.4.6. 16 Jan" recovery by Mukulsoni.Status 7.Please suggest what wrong i did?

1) After d'loading the .image file, i rename it to "recovery" as it in the zipped folder of Mukulsoni recovery.

2) Then i open the zip of Mukulsoni recovery and drag Phil's image file to replace it.

3) Close the zip, put it in the sd card and flash.

4) Status 7 happened.

What should i do? Please help! :crying:
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ujilraj:
I suggest that the first link needs to highlighted... My mistake, but honestly i didn't notice a link below the title...
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
This is NOT a flashable zip file!

1. Download, adb push a 6.0.4.6 image file to sdcard (just in case).

2. adb push the PhilZ file to sdcard.

3. In terminal emulator or adb shell (must be rooted):

4. flash_image recovery path-to-file

If it fits and all goes well, you got it.

In case of error, do same for the 6.0.4.6 image and be back in business.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] indigobv:
I wouldn't suggest anyone do that, I tried to it and almost bricked my phone (long story). I did it before you mentioned this, so it's not your fault. Apparently there isn't enough space in recovery to flash this. I think our recovery has 5mb and this recovery is almost 6mb. I may be wrong with this, but that was the error that showed up when I tried to flash it with flash_image.

It would be safer to suggest to download the recovery, rename it to recovery.img and place it on the root of another recovery zip, overwriting the old recovery, and then trying to flash it. That way, if something happens you will get an error instead of flashing it wrong. But as I said earlier, even if you try you will most likely get a Status 7 error.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
This should be the error. Then flash_image the 6.0.4.6 which fits. Do it immediately or else .... I believe I had that happen once. I posted about that 5meg limit above. Did not try this because of the limit.

Maybe the op should post a proper flashable zip instead. Problem is that status 7 itself might mean a brick.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] indigobv:
Thanks for the heads up, I actually didn't try booting in recovery after the status 7 error. Now I can confirm that it tries to flash it even if it shows the error and then forces the phone to go in fastboot mode until the problem is solved.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Phil3759:

Because I Want To Flash The Recovery Without Taking Risk
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Dovidhalevi:
I believe this is simple a nice GUI for flash_image. Aint no such thing as no risk so beware.

The method I suggested should be safe if one flash_image's a valid recovery immediately after any error (but I make no guarantee!).

I advise against flashing this recovery version at this point because it is clearly too big for our device. We can get along just fine without a touch interface if need be. Never had one.

Changing board partition sizes is not a readily done simple matter by any means.
