Any decent IR blaster / universal rmote control app to make use of this feature in the G4?

I found only the TV Kill app on F-Droid, which works, but it can only turn TVs off.

There are lots of universal remote apps on Google Play / Aurora store, but they have unbelievable amounts of trackers and unnecessary permissions according to exodus https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/ for what should be a relatively simple and unobtrusive app.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubla:
Nobody?

So far the best I've found is IR Remote Control: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jw.ir.remote.control

It hasn't been updated since 2016, has limited device support, and has a somewhat cramped UI, but it actually works and isn't full of trackers and requires few permissions.

I hope there is something better out there, but for now I guess it's good enough.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] htr5:
I've been using this app for years. It works great and has good layout customization abilities.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubla:
Thanks for the suggestion.

There are a couple of issues:

The permissions required seem excessive: https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/9458/

It does not install for me on /e/ and microg saying there is no billing permission.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] howardssdunn:
I actually, all remote control apps, I have used before was not as good as the standard universal remote controls. With their help, you can control TVs, consoles, DVD players, audio systems, and other devices. As I've read here https://themybuy.com/best-universal-remote-control/ such controls as Logitech Harmony Ultimate can work with nearly 200k entertainment and smart home devices. Speaking about apps, I have not found such applications yet that can work with so many devices. Also, they are hard in installment and configuration. But it is my opinion.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nilesh Patale:
Hi All,

Need quick help from you all.....

I was working on making a universal Alexa-operated IR remote control with which one can control any device present at home.

Currently, I am able to control TVs (using RC5 protocol) and music systems (using NEX protocol).

But I am facing a lot of difficulties in decoding the AC remote control. (My observation is that AC remote is sending a lot of data as compared to a normal remote control)

can anyone help/guide me in with AC remotes?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanyTR:
I my opinion If I was on your place I would go with Logitech harmony as it has amazing features and easy to control.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nubla:
This thread is about an app for the IR blaster on phones, not dedicated remote controls.

There is a new app option on F-Droid, creatively named IR Remote:

IR Remote | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

IR TV Remote

f-droid.org

It's not perfect as there are currently some bugs and some buttons do not work correctly, but it is serviceable, and bug reports could make it better. Seems like the cleanest/safest option so far.
[ASUS ZenFone 7 / 7 Pro Questions & Answers] belegdol:
Hello, I am considering buying the zenfone 7. As I am planning to use it for navigation on a bike, one of the requirements is the availability of a case with either polycarbonate or ABS back so that I can stick a quad lock adapter to it:

https://support.quadlockcase.com/hc/en-us/articles/235253047

What is the active case included in the box made of, and does it look sturdy enough for the phone not to fall out while riding a mountain bike? Otterbox Commuter and Moto X Force work perfectly so far. Thanks!
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] hrdlw:
While i was trying to flash aospa extended i forgot to flash fcrypt disabler. I booted into recovery once again to flash it. Now my twrp begs for password while in security section it says phone not encrypted. What do you guys think?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] rafigh89:
this is because your data is encrypted and you should format (not wipe) data to remove password.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] hrdlw:
but i dont need to right?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
The question is, what do you want. Do you want to have an encrypted phone, or do you want to be permanently decrypted? There is no need to permanently decrypt the phone if you prefer to remain encrypted. You can easily user custom ROMs and be encrypted.

Have your been flashing DFE scripts because you want to be decrypted, or because you've followed an inaccurate guide that says you should flash it?

Just to be on the safe side:

Coming from Stock OOS with TWRP and Magisk 20.4., can I simply flash the PBRP Zip in TWRP and thats it? Or do I have to reflash Magisk after that? Is there any possibility that the storage is encrypted (not available in Recovery) after that?

Many thanks in advance!
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Flash simply from 3.4.0.0 then flash magisk like usually you made, this recovery have some good features to flash it directly without have the file on your memory simply at the end of the installation with volume buttons or from his features.

slots

how do we know which slot where on? thx in advance. just asking because i have to update Oos on both slots to update ne custom rom. cant find option anywhere. any help would be appreciated
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Actually seem not possible to see but to flash oxygen on both slots sjmply flash it and twrp, reboot to twrp a repeat, you will see the slot changing during the procedure.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Bastafari:
Three things. First, making a system backup is fast! Stupid fast. Way better than twrp. Second, if your flashing a new rom, you have to flash recovery again. When picking files to flash it gives the option to flash pbrp automatically, but it doesn't work so you have to also choose the pbrp file in addition to your rom. Third, it indeed automatically flashes magisk which is awesome.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] freddienuxx:
yes I realized when I flashed Oos in the first slot. and thx for for a awesome recovery
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ygecesefa:

[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] kjslabber:
Love this recovery. Just be known that every time I have flashed this recovery I lost root. So make sure you reboot to recovery and reinstall magisk zip before you reboot to system or you may not be rooted.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Is normal also on normal twrp, if you flash twrp you need to reflash immediately magisk.

Into Mauronofrio twrp you will see the message at the end of recovery flash.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] MJPollard:
That's normal even for TWRP, actually. That's why the general steps to follow when flashing a ROM on an A/B device like the OP7Pro are:

Flash ROM.

Flash TWRP recovery zip.

Reboot to recovery.

Flash Magisk.

Flash Google apps (if needed).

Flash whatever else you need (like Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt if you run decrypted).

Reboot to system.

Some ROMs may require additional steps, like flashing OOS to both slots (the reasoning for which is beyond me, as I assume most custom ROMs already include the OOS blobs from TheMuppets or other sources), but that's the general method to use. I'm assuming that it's the same or similar for PitchBlack.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Bastafari:
Also if pbrp doesn't promp the message to press volume up to flash magisk after you flash something, you can access the tools section in recovery and select to flash magisk there.

Thx for answering. What about if I want to use ota and keep magisk and this recovery too?

[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Usually to restore successfully a backup you before need to format data and flash your os on both slots included tarp and then boot only one time without setup, return into twrp then restore backup, it worked for me on Oxygen.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Bastafari:
Follow the instructions in that roms thread. Worst case scenario, you'll have to fastboot the recovery again and flash this plus magisk if you mess up.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] PDS1921:
Im using PB I just updated rr I flashed the rr update then I flashed PB rebooted recovery and flashed magisks. That's the way I also update using the regular TWRP. Is the flashing method different if so can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong.
[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Swaroop16548:
Does op have any plans to make this recovery magisk flashable?

I recently installed OTA update but when tried to flash the recovery via magisk just to keep recovery and root persistent, the magisk failed to detect it as a magisk flashable module.

It would be really cool to just flash this recovery after ota just like TWRP via magisk for consistency across ota updates.

[OnePlus 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] VampireHeart:
Not cause it based on twrp 3.4.0.0 but also if you use latest unofficial or official can't use it without using DFE zip to stay decrypted.

From previous stable or beta 10 you can only update via OTA and before reboot install magisk into inactive slot.

HI everyone...

During last Weeks I have been working on getting a recovery working for this device, I upload the first version of what I have done, I was not able to test it properly due there is an issue with touchscreen if someone has the possibilitie to test it with an mouse that would be great. It was made for the xt2016-2 version only regards

You will need fastboot on your PC:

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

as well a bootloader unlocked

WARNING:Flashing this may get device encrypted data so it may delete your data

i am not responsable of any damaged device

first you have to know your active slot on the device for that you will do the following:

Make sure the smartphone is connected to the PC with a USB cable

Now boot the smartphone into Fastboot Mode

Open up a Command Prompt, Windows PowerShell, or a Terminal in the same folder as your ADB and Fastboot files

Type out the following command. . .

fastboot getvar all

. . .then press Enter on the keyboard

Wait for a lot of text to finish scrolling and look for the (bootloader) current-slot text

This should actually be toward the bottom without the need to scroll up.

The letter after this text will be the currently active partition slot for your device

Commands to flash it and things you will need:

Blank vbmeta (To remove AVB verfication): https://mega.nz/file/nDwjACqQ#YljxjKbR3QLwFyj4LuMpKE4NR8ZlPOgQ9t9PWXADBqk

command: fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta_(slot what you are using) vbmeta.img

then we are gonna flash the TWRP image

TWRP XT2016-2: https://mega.nz/file/nDwjACqQ#YljxjKbR3QLwFyj4LuMpKE4NR8ZlPOgQ9t9PWXADBqk

Command: fastboot flash boot_(slot what you are using) TWRP.img

NOTE: REMOVE THE () AND JUST PUT THE LETTER*

In case of brick: I leave stock images

command for vbmeta: fastboot flash vbmeta_a vbmetastock.img

command for vbmeta: fastboot flash vbmeta_b vbmetastock.img

Vbmeta:https://mega.nz/file/OP5jAISC#NFLCqerxXZC5aY9-WW5fq6cUlZ6WWwDQxIMvfN0nOxI

Boot:https://mega.nz/file/3fIQhQzA#GFeIbb1TYPg8x8Lq_fBiNu9UFenUgvFH1-eVjIm4uqE

You flash boot same way than previous one.
