Want to use a Sofabaton U2 remote? Well, the easiest way, is to disable Bluetooth on the TV. And then turn the TV off. Otherwise, the Bluetooth might turn itself back on.
When learning the remote, instead of following the instructions, click the button once. Holding it doesn’t work. Probably won’t learn it the first time. With any luck, it’ll work the second time.
If you use Bluetooth, some buttons may not work. Couldn’t get the menu button to work with Bluetooth. Too lazy to try every single key as well. Probably not enough buttons on Sofabaton to assign every Bluetooth key. So that means doing one at a time, and then reconnecting to phone after it fails each time.
There is a way to get it though, use a Bluetooth sniffer. If it isn’t encrypted, then it should have the key in the packet. Searching the Internet, won’t find anything. Except, to turn Bluetooth off.
I set it up as a Basic TV. Not connecting any “smart” TV to the internet again.
The Sofabaton U2, has shitty IR range. Thought when I bought it, it said it improved the range. Maybe it just stops working as good too.
The Bluetooth has issues too. Got to click pause a lot.
