DescriptionThis remote control can replace your FreeAgents IR-remote and allows entering text with your phones keyboard. Only the most recent firmware version of Theater+/GoFlex TV supports all features.
If you have problems or suggestions, feel free to send me an email.
This is not an official app for Seagate FreeAgent Theater+ or GoFlex TV devices!
Known issues:
- Some software keyboards are not compatible. So, if you have trouble try to use the android keyboard. Known to work: Android keyboard (and compatible), Swype keyboard, Nuance XT9 keyboard (e.g. Transformer Prime)
- The FreeAgent cannot be turned on with the remote control. This is a limitation of the hardware design of the FreeAgent and GoLive devices.
- Text can only be entered in 'one rush'. Relocating the cursor and inserting text at another point is not working. This is a limitation of the FreeAgent. (backspace works)
Permissions:
INTERNET:
This is mandatory, as the remote has to access your local network to send commands to your FreeAgent.
ACCESS_WIFI_STATE:
This is used to check if Wifi is enabled and if not remind you to turn it on.
VIBRATE:
This is used to vibrate if a button of the remote is pressed.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE:
This is currently not used, but needed for a future extension.More 2013 © mobvo.com
