I also wish it had OR Blaster but it isn't a deal breaker for me. I never set it up on my S6 Edge and I always have my Tab S by the TV anyways so I'm okay with it
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] megagodx:
They probably collected usage statistics on the app and just not enough people used it to warrant using up the extra capacity in the phone for the necessary components to make it run an IR Blaster. Phones keep getting thinner, fitting components is getting harder. They're going to omit things at this point that they don't feel their consumer base is using, most likely.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctor-cool:
I think they saved a bunch of money by using the new processor but it may be incompatible with the features we miss.

Either that or they're stup1d.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oilfighter:
isn't it the same family of processors as S6? That has an IR blaster.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctor-cool:
I don't know but I heard something about the processor and comparability with roms and the external sd Card
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calvin35:
They got rid of the IR blaster because Samsung doesn't care at all about their customers. Samsung is trying to make as much money as possible, period. Any feature that Samsung thinks they can take away that will not cause the vast majority of people to not but the phone will be taken away. That is why the IR blaster is not there. It really is that simple. They took it away because they figured that while people would upset, the vast majority of those people would still buy the phone so it there is no reason for them to spend the money to put in.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alodar1:
You're right, that's it. A multi-billion dollar company meets bi-weekly, finds out what the top features are, and spends millions of dollars to remove them.

i have an old sony system that i lost the remote, with my htc m8 is the only way i can control it without getting up from bed to turn off before sleep, and after that i added my tv and ar conditioner to the app, averything controlled in my phone. for me is a major drawback, i would not even care about not having front facing speakers but IR for me is mandatory.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netnerd:
most hotels tv remote won't let you switch input mode. with my regular s6 edge, I can switch input to HDMI and stream porn to the TV !
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] folusmile:
Samsung got it wrong this time around by removing IR, Samsung are self centered they do not care abt their customers. We all see what happened to Nokia and what blackberry is facing. Now, I think it Samsung turn In life u can't be a champion for ever the fall of Samsung jst begin if care is not taking. Nothing so special abt note 5.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netnerd:
and nothing so special about Edge+. i have regular galaxy s6 edge, the edge screen is useless, it doesnt do much ! it' a waste of money. Atleast the edge screen on NoteEdge is usefull, it can display Main and Edge screen at the same time. on galaxy s6 and s6 edge+, you CANT !
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] folusmile:
You're right. To me RIP to Samsung. They are gradually making ways for other competitors.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netnerd:
I believe the real reason they removed IR blaster to save money and make more profits. They probably have to pay licencing fee to use IR.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boufa:
Everyone is different. The device dropped several hundred dollars in price.... Hmmm, not seeing too many threads about that little detail.... and I for one have never used the IR Blaster on a single device I have owned, and I am pretty sure most of them have it. So I say good riddance. I don't remember the details, but somewhat recently, a manufacturer stopped putting NFC chips into their devices because no one was using them.

Of course they added wireless charging, both standards, so maybe more people will use the wireless charging than the IR blaster.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netnerd:
what? i thought adding more features to the phone so more people will buy it. by removing IR buster ?

freaking galaxy s6 EDGE+ with big screen like NoteEdge, but cant display Main and Edge screen at the same time like NoteEdge. FAILED !

i have upgrade available, i'm really have the urge to upgrade but it' nothing to get excited about these 2 new phones. and where is my freaking usb 3.1 ?

i think i'll use my upgrade on iphone6S and play with "force touch".
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonebeatz1234:
Samsung always gave you every thing you wanted. People are pissed because they taking away what we were use to simple as that. Its like you never miss multi windown until you get a phone that don't have it. Or with a g4 you use to double tap to on then get a note 4 and double tap and nothing happens. I'm pissed but I'll get the s6 edge plus just because i upgrade 2x a year and its around that time for a upgrade
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingi999:
I'm not sure but I have a feeling it has something to with the app that they used to make for the business they had with peel. On my note pro 12.2 the app just stops working about 2 months ago. There was no explaination, but they warned for like 2 months that the app would stop working and since then No ir blaster or sync with TV shows.

I think it's about saving money, it was a mistake. It seems like they forgot their core customer and the mission behind the note line. Or what their marketing debt wanted us to be I live was their mission.

To me the note was about advancing the companies tech/pushing boundaries and supplying a productivity beast.

the only way Samsung will realize they messed up is if we don't buy the device, basically it must be a flop.

I'm hearing LG and sony might be offering something similar to a note, let's see if someone can take the title from samsung.

I mean think about it, if LG or Sony came out with a device with the specs we all hoped would be in the note 5, who wouldn't go buy it right now.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdacats:
A lot of people here seem to think its outdated or not used. As of Dec 2015 89% of Samsung owners used their ir feature regularly. I was one of them. Its ridiculous that I have to bust out my old note 4 every time I want to use it. The ir apps for android have saved me at least a couple hundred dollars over the past couple years by not having to get a PlayStation or Xbox remote and kept me from having to buy a new surround remote when mine got lost during a move.

Have you ever seen a tear down of a note or galaxy that has an ir? The thing is tiny and dirt cheap. Look at the tear down on a note 5 and I count at least 3 places at the top they could have put it in. From a customer standpoint there was no good reason for Sammy to remove it. Bad move.

Of course i flashed stock firmware back with odin.

In downloading mode i get

[Wing, P4350 General] Tom H:
Here Wing and Herald seem to be used interchangeably. However, externally, they are not the same I don't think. I have the T-Mobile Wing and went to a web site to try to get a custom case for it. Thinking it was the Herald, I almost bought one, as the case was for the Herald. However, looking at the pictures closely, the cameras on the back are oriented differently, and there ae some other external differences that would make the custom Herald case not work with the Wing. So I am not sure why people are treating the Herald and Wind as the same thing. Maybe internally they are the same but not externally. Am I missing something?

Thanks.
[Wing, P4350 General] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
You are correct, internally they're identical. Many of HTC's phones vary on the outside, depending on what the carrier's specific wants and needs are for their own branding.
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
NOt completely.

They have different Model-ID - so even when it is unlocked you cannot flash any Herlad rom on a WIng because it is not the same Model-ID. Like the XDA Terra is not the same Model-ID as Herald or WIng. You will get "Error" while flashing a herald rom to WIng or Terra.

Believe me - i tried it ;)
[Wing, P4350 General] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
I was referring to the internal components being the same across the board.
[Wing, P4350 General] papamopps:
And I just wanted to make clear - that there are minimal differences.

I tried to flash a German WM5 with RUU to German XDA Terra and I got the "error" becuase of Model-ID.

They are getting better and better with every release;)

Hehe

You could try soldering to those solder pads right before the resistors/caps in the path. If you bypass those, and solder directly to the exposed pads you identified, you may have issues, i.e. those resistors/caps are probably there for a reason :). That's what I would try anyways.
