Smart remote is really great:

try this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=remote.zappir.free&hl=en

There is a premium app that is also called "Smart Remote" its about 6.99 in the play store.
This app blows all of them out the water, you can save your remotes in the cloud, switch between them easily. And there hasnt been a tv set or box that i havent been able to program. One of the best apps ive purchased.

The Sky+ app? You don't even need to aim at the Sky+ box. You can schedule recordings and downloads without interrupting whatever is playing.

Try Galaxy Universal Remote.. The best IR app that I have found ever.

The same problem here....any solution?

for the Sky boxes depending on the country you need to choose a different manufacturer.
In New Zealand for example they are made by Pace and are the 5th one in the testing list (at least my sky HDi is)

[Q] Can you open pdf files and play netflix

These are two things I could never do on my vibrant, so I'm always taking my wifes iphone to do to do them. Will the s2 be capable of this. Dont want an iphone but these are pretty big for me.
My galaxy s could open pdf just fine using think free office, (which came pre installed from samsung) but was also freely available in the market.
The sgs2 comes with polaris office, which works just as well.
Hmmm my problem was emails mostly, I could never open the attachments, does it work for that
Automatically, I click on preview attachment button, it downloads it and then up pops think free to view the attachment.

you click the attachment, it downloads and opens with your pdf viewing app. You can do that with any android phone that supports to app to my knowledge
No Netflix I'm afraid and I doubt it'll be coming any time soon as Qualcomm have it as an exclusive for their snapdragon handsets which is allegedly because of DRM.

why would netflix do that.. right now the only thing stopping me from getting a netflix account is that i cant use it on my phone..isnt there some sort of port for it to work on regular phones?
Adobe reader works just fine for PDF files. and its free. Download from the market place.

This was working a while back but Netflix put a stop to it. The EVO is also a Snapdragon phone.

allshare play.apk

This worked on my galaxy nexus http://m.m3m0.bazaarandroid.com/app/market/com.sec.android.app.allshare/1200/428569/AllShare Player you'll have to install aptoide,which has apps just as the play store, but with no restrictions. try it and let me know if it work. Worked on 10.1 tablet too.
Just installed it on my galaxy nexus as well. Thanks for the link.
This I would love, but without having to install an extra app just to download.
I use Allshare Play on my computer to my phone when I'm out. Would be nice to have to use it on my tablet off the network as well.
Does the app still work if you uninstall aptoide?

I use Es File Explorer to my devices. I've seen these recommended as well, BubbleUPnP and HomeDia... I haven't tried them so I can't vouch.

You can try Twonky. With Twonky Beam you can even beam video from tablet to PC or Smart TV (only HTML5 sites).
I am using also MediaHouse (the Pro version, but the Lite works as well).

Thanks for the share.
Can someone upload the apk file cos I would like to added to my rom..?
Has anybody tried pushing the full Allshare package to the System Apps (IE Allshare Play, Allshare Controller, etc.)
One thing that bites is that while the included Allshare apk for this tablet is good for DLNA, it would be nice to have the remote access features of Allshare Play.
Sure, there are tons of alternatives, but Allshare/ Allshare Play has great privacy settings for DLNA so you can restrict access easily and access your home computer when you are away from your home LAN.
thank you

Streaming videos to my Smart TV

Hi,
I can't stream videos to my Samsung smart tv with the galaxy note 2.
However i was able to do this with my Samsung epic 4g touch through the "allshare" app that came with the phone.
I used the “allshare play" app that came with my note 2, but it won't detect my tv.it's basically supposed to detect my tv through the same Wi-Fi network that we're connected to and let me stream videos from my phone.

I just want to be sure, you are using the Allshare Cast dongle correct?
Have you tried updating allshare? They just pushed an update two days ago -

OP shouldn't need the dongle with the Samsung Smart TV it's already built in.

Thanx for the replies! With your information, i was able to look through my phone and try out the file sharing feature. when i turn on file sharing, the tv detects the phone. However, the phone can't detect the tv so that i can push files to the tv.
It is a smart tv and I've done it before with the galaxy s 2, but I'm having no luck with my note 2.
The app is already updated, but it's not detecting the tv. I have a UN55C6500VF.
Also, when i play videos i recorded with my phone, it lags like crazy, but when i play a 720p movie it doesn't lag at all. What the hell?

IR blaster not working after lollipop upgrade

I got the upgrade to lollipop yesterday and now my IR blaster doesn't work. I reinstalled the IR remote app I use to control my TV and cable box but still doesn't work. I hate to do a factory reset cuz I have tons of customization. Any thoughts

Are you using the stock app or another app?
I have the same problem. I was rooted and deleted the stock remote app and had been using Anymote, updated to Lollipop, and now IR controls don't work.
So mine works with stock app but not the one I downloaded. I'm not rooted,just stock.

I got my non-stock remote to work again. I don't know if it was the sequence I did it in since you already tried reinstalling your IR remote app. I installed the stock Smart Remote app and set it up, and it worked. Then I reinstalled my remote app Anymote, and it's working again.

By far the best IR remote app is Galaxy Universal Remote. Mine didn't work when I did a Lollipop upgrade. All you have to do is upgrade the App to the latest version (3.4.9 or above) and it will work again. I could see the difference using a digital camera to look at the IR blaster with Lollipop. With the old app the output was very weak. Once the upgrade was done on the remote app the output was back to normal.

That is true. Last version works fine. The problem is that it is not free.
Another option that works, and is free, is 'IR Universal Remote - IR 2.0'; it is not that godd, but works for some TV models

It works. I extracted the latest version from my phone and side loaded it. It is kind of hard to navigate you need to use the game controller or a mouse.
Played around a little more with the YouTube tv app today and was surprised to find out you can watch NFL games. When I use the same app on my phone or tablet to watch NFL I get a message saying it can't be watched on mobile devices and I figured I would get the same message cause it's the same app. I live in Florida and I was also able to install an app called fake gps set the fake gps app to Minneapolis and watch the Minnesota Vikings game that was not available in my market.

Shield is not rooted. I use an app called APK extractor on my phone, it's in the play store. After I extract the APK I upload the APK to my OneDrive I have my OneDrive linked to ES file explorer on my shield and that's where I install it from.
