Does anyone know if MOTO G5 supports Motorola's digital TV App ? If not is it possible to port it ?
I can't put a link to it but it's available on Playstore (at least the Desktop version).

Hi please can someone tell me how to get LG QRemote (Or Quick Remote, as it's sometimes referred to) working on a UK LG G Pad 8.3? I got the tablet for free in a promotion when I bought an LG UHD TV and I thought after reading about QRemote (which is mentioned in all of the promotions for this device) that I could simply use the tablet mainly as a remote control for controlling all of the various AV components I have and of ditching the seven or so remote controls I currently have. I have tried some universal/learning remotes, but my success has varied in getting these to learn the codes for all of my devices.
However it turns out that the UK version didn't ship with QRemote preinstalled. The official word from LG was because in their view there was no demand for this feature in the UK. I of course have struggled to understand this point of view, but there seems to be little I can do about it. Also there doesn't seem to be a simple APK for this app that I can download.
My device does appear to have an IR blaster, but after trying a few IR Remote apps, none so far have been able to recognise that the IR blaster is there. I don't know if this has also been disabled in hardware, or if it's just a software limitation.
So my thoughts are that maybe either one of you guys can make an APK for this app for me and others like me and share it here, or maybe I could flash my G Pad with a custom American ROM, with QRemote included? If so is there any guide anywhere that would show me how to do this safely and how/where to obtain a custom ROM? I have already rooted the device, so hopefully that's half the battle.
Hi
Interesting thread
I was searching for my G Pad in order to find a way to inject another Quick Remote app (like that of G2) in it for having more options because G Pad per se only supports TVs, DVD players and Blue rays while a G2 for example includes also Data Projectors and Air Conditioners that are more practical for me at least.
Regarding to your case, I may upload my QR's APK and Odex for you but i am not sure whether it would work or not. Then if you wish so, let me know.
And about my case, if some one thinks it would be possible with no harm, i'd be glad to know.
I don't know if that would work either. Anyone? A custom Rom that includes it even?

All of the custom roms I have tried did not include the remote functionality. My G3 definitely has a better remote program. It is silly that the GPad remote program is gimped in the way that it is.

The IR blaster works and I got a version of QRemote from a pack of official LG apps supplied by one of the custom ROM developers for this device. But you are correct that it has been severely 'gimped' over what was originally advertised in the promotions for this device. It can currently only control some TV's some DVD players and some Blue-ray players. The learning features have been removed, as has the ability to control any AV components, or any other devices.
What exactly is the point of an IR blaster without this functionality? They gave me the G Pad with my TV. But currently the installed software can't even fully control my TV.
What alternatives are there, preferably with full learning functionality?

On the GPad itself, none that I am aware of. The device driver from what I have read for the IR functionality is locked down and no open source alternative works with the hardware. Until LG patches it, or releases the driver we have what we have but nothing more... (about all I can do with my Samsung TV that is useful for my setup is turn it on and change the input)
It was my understanding that the g pad only has a transmitter and no receiver which is why we can't get our tablet to learn from our remotes.

Hi,
Do you know if (and how) you can install the original watchfaces from the G Watch R on the Moto 360? Or from other Android Wear watches?
There is a YouTube guide, but the link with instructions is not working anymore...
Thanks.
This one?

Hey guy, I'm Asia and I just receive a moto mod Alexa as a gift.
After I install Moto Alexa app, it said "Moto Alexa Is not support this region", so how can I fix this?

Moto Z Play for some weird reasons has disabled cast. You have to root your device and edit one line in build.prop from persist.debug.wfd.enable=0 to
persist.debug.wfd.enable=1
It should work.
Thanks to @dedraks

Google removed that functionality from Android in Marshmallow and where it exists after that is where the vendor adds it. Motorola doesn't add it.

The reason Moto disabled it, is because they want people to buy their Moto Mod Projector

That would be very weird reason - Insta Share Projector can't replace cast.
I found info about this on official Lenovo forum. One of moderator said:
"Google removed Miracast from stock android many versions ago. And since Motorola builds on stock android with very little modifications, most of their phones have not had Miracast in many years. Android supported Miracast, in Android 4.2 (KitKat) and Android 5 (Lollipop). However, Google dropped native Miracast support in Android 6 (Marshmallow) and later. If you want to mirror the display from a newer Android phone or tablet, you’ll need to do so via Chromecast."
Hi,
Could someone with Freeview play installed on their Sony / Philips TV extract and share the APK please?
Thanks.
I'd be interested as well. Thanks in advance.
Hello. I need it as well. Any news please ?

Int'l firmware or AirPlay for Chinese Sony KD-55X9000H
Hello all, I'm in China at the moment and recently bought a TV. I deliberately bought a TV from an internationally active brand that also sells the same model elsewhere in the world, hoping that would ensure that the feature set is the same...

I was wondering similar - Basically how to find and extract unique in built APKs & PORT them to other A TVs
Should be a How To by now?
