Guys just a very quick question, does the new M9 come with a IR transmitter and receiver or only a transmitter? Is it still possible for the M9 blaster to learn new IR signals ?

No, it can learn IR signals

How?
There is an mention that the M9 can learn IR signals. How then?
Mine does not respond to signal. So it seems that it has only an IR blaster and no receiver.

Maybe a software issue? Mine certainly learned signals using the Peel remote app that came on the phone

Anymote told me their app can record on the M9, that was one of the deciding factors for me to upgrade from my M7. I have a lot of devices that aren't in any code database, and the IR receiver has become invaluable to me.
So it works for you on the M9?
I See in tha app descriptoin: RECORD REMOTES - exclusive to the HTC One due to hardware limitations in other devices.
Could be any One device offcourse

It is possible to learn new IR signals.
Open the Peel Smart Remote app, open the remote, go to settings, choose your room and click on your device in the DEVICE-section.

This is not called learn new signal. The Device-section is a set of preset signal. What he meant was learn signals directly from the remote you have. Because sometimes the app does not have your device's brand/signal. Happened to me when i tried on my Fujisu air-conditioner and non of the signals worked.

It does work. Tested it out after I got the phone. However, I haven't seen any other apps besides the one I use that can do it, and last time I checked the app is I think $10. The way I see it, that's still less than a low end universal remote that CAN'T learn signals, but most Android users seem to be entitled jerks who think everything on the app store should be free, so whether or not you're willing to pay for it is your only limitation here.

That's anymote I believe. I also purchased it when I used it ALL THE TIME on my galaxy gear 2 watch. Its got codes for devices I never would have thought of controlling with a phone. I will also say that response from the developers was quick but they were also extremely rude and accused me of having a pirated copy somehow? I didn't have a fake copy obviously otherwise I wouldn't have contacted them for help! Haha either way we got it sorted and they found the code for a device I was having difficult with.

Search "Smart IR Remote", it's $6.99USD now. Looks like they also have a free app now as well, but I don't know how limited it is.

I don't suspect there will be, since no one seems to make them anymore, but does it have an IR blaster?

Sadly no
They opted out because the majority of people do not use that feature.
I never use it so I won't miss it.

IR remotes now are being replaced with Bluetooth remotes. But would have liked to see the IR blaster not phased out.
For me it's OK, as I used it one time on my M8 and in fact never on my M9. This depends on the user of course. Just my 2 cent.

I have to admit I loved having one but sadly I never used it. All the roms I would flash... I got sick of setting it up. It will be missed but not a big deal
I use Anymote and control EVERYTHING in my house with it on my M8. Even the rotating fan has a remote.
I was hoping to get a tablet to take care of this burden, but even they don't have the ability on newer models.

The old fashioned way I suppose. Just don't do it a lot or you'll go blind
I personally I use this thing a lot. Also if I'm flashing new rom, I'm using titanium backup so I won't have to setup peel smart everytime. Very useful if you aways lose the remote ? for the TV's, audio system, air conditionin =) and etc

So true. My kids keep losing the remotes. It's nice to have all the different TVs programmed into my phone so I don't have to hunt around for them.
What of keeping your old device as a remote, for game playing and/or navigation when on the go, and your 10 for all the other brilliant stuff

Not sure if it actually works.

It says the IR blaster is based on the level of output of the headphone jack, and from my understanding that the headphone jack on the HTC 10 is suppose to be loud due to a dedicated amp, so if it worked it should work well. The only issue is that you would either have to keep the IR blaster plugged in at all times or find it when you need it and it isn't very big.

We could get around not losing the ir blaster when not in use by using something like this ( http://www.amazon.com/Smartphone-Ph..._cp_107_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1R3B4XGBYBXVKHZTMWRF ) connected to somthing like this ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/Female-to-F...653666?hash=item3a94914d62:g:XW4AAOxylwpR4ugb ) connected to the ir blaster attached to keys. Or if someone could find a 3.5mm jack cap that we can hook a laynard to.
Or just buy 20 ir blasters and place one everywhere.
Also here is another style ir blaster I think its lower profile and looks cool. http://www.ebay.com/itm/121870964868?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
The only thing putting me off ordering the 10 is the lack of IR blaster which I use daily on my M9 and previous HTC's.

I use my LG App. As long as my 10 and my television are within the same Wireless LAN I simply don't need an IR blaster any longer
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
I was disappointed with the removal of the IR Blaster, I loved it on the SGS4, M8 and M9.
However, looking back I can count the number of times I used it on each device. It was great to have when needed, but just that, when needed and that wasn't much.
It's not something that was a game changer when choosing the device for me.
I'd like to have it and would consider checking out something like the above for when I may need it. (however the shipping said up to 55 days, with no tracking.. I'd like to find an alternative site to purchase from)

May be a little late, but i recently bought this item and technically it's working but the signal is so weak it's unusable. You need to put the phone right in front of the ir reciever to get it working.

There are better 3.5mm ir blasters that work. And some advice, if you are buying the 10, go for the silver or red variant, the black one is so prone to scrathing and paint chiping. Other than that, the phone is great, you won't regret it.
I have a similar IR blaster but is far away from the functions and precision from my previous M9 and M7. It uses an app called ZaZa Remote which hasn't the features that Peel has like the shows that are passing in the moment.
It also have precision issues and the distance range is very poor. You need to disable Dolby Audio in order to work "properly".
I wouldn't recommend it but considering cheapness of the device and that is the only option, go ahead and try it yourself, maybe you have more luck than me.
Does Moto G5S has compass sensor ? I've messaged several sellers. They said that XT1794 got compass. Can someone confirm it ?

Hello!
I'm a paragliding pilot and I use the smartphones with special apps that helps me to detect hot air masses and helps me navigate better when I'm flying. These applications require a barometer that is only available on a small number of smartphones and the Mix 2 is one of them.
I want to buy a Mix 2 in 1-2 days but I dont know anything about the barometer inside and how good/bad is it.
Can someone please install this app from playstore (Sensor Test by Andrey Efremov, it has a blue icon with a arrow) and post a screenshot from the barometer/info page?
I want to see what vendor (probably Bosch) and model is the barometer sensor so I can make some research about it.
Thanks in advance!
I can't post a pic for some reason, but yes, it's Bosch.
Can you please tell me the exact name of the sensor?
My old Nexus 5 is using a Bosch BMP280 sensor wich did a great job. I want see if the new Xiaomi phones have the same sensor or a newer model.
Thanks!

Smart thing to do... install something because someone tells you to do so...
That app is safe. I'm not a spammer, but that app is the only one I know that shows the barometer name.
Search my youtube channel (epuru) so you can see that I'm a paragliding pilot and the fast beep beep beep sound you hear in my flying videos is produced by the barometer.
My old Nexus 5 is still doing a great job, but I'm in love with the Mix 2, but if the barometer from the Mix 2 is not ok I will have to say pass.

You could have found it yourself: Bosch BMP285
How? I dont have the Mix 2 yet, that's why I asked here.
I hope it's better or at least as good compared to the BMP280 from my Nexus 5.
I will ask a friend with a Mi6 to see if it has the same sensor as the Mix 2 and if he can let me to see how accurate is.

No hard feelings, my friend!
If the Bosch BMP280 sensor from Nexus 5 was good I suppose the Bosch BMP285 from the Mix 2 is a newer, better and even more accurate sensor.
I have just ordered in advance 2 tempered glass screen protectors and a case from Aliexpress and I will wait two days for the "chinese black friday" to order the Mix 2. I hope I will not break it on a paragliding hard landing.
Thanks for everything.

Hello! I dont know yet because weather is bad in Romania and my last flight was 2 months ago.
I played in house a little bit with it and it seems to be accurate and works great. My old Nexus 5 (BMP280 barometer) did a great job with XC Track, and it seems that Mix 2 (BMP285 barometer) is even better.
I cant wait for a day with nice weather so I can test it in a real flight.
