I thought it would be kind of cool, so I went through the programming and set it up for my LG V and my time warner high def cable box.
Everything seemed to work, but now all it will do is change the channel on the box. The volume doesn't work, and if I go to turn off the TV it comes up with a screen asking which device I want to control but won't let me select either one.
I'm using it on a Samsung tv and a Comcast set top box, and it's working great for me.
ILO tv & comcast box. works great.
Lg and Panasonic tvs, both with com cast boxes are a no go.

Comcast box and Hisense tv, working.
Also have tvs at work, LG, all working (Around 10) with the same code sent on one of the tvs.
Pretty happy with this as now I can control my work TVs without having to fumble around with remotes.
Two different Samsung TV models & two FIOS Multi-Room DVR's...all working great. Volume doesn't work, but that's because it's controlled by my surround sound system.
Mine's the same way. Got cable working but now no volume.
It works with my LG TV. I have a Comcast X1 and am able to change channels, but a lot of other buttons like menu and DVR don't work. Going to give the setup another go tomorrow.

I actually disabled it. I never used the app but apparently it was running in the background and I kept getting force close messages.
I can get everything to work beside the volume on my Demon AV receiver. I can get it to turn on and off but not the volume. Can anyone give me advice on doing this?

Try again man but this time instead of picking comcast for the brand of set top box, go to other brands and scroll to find the actual company who made the box. For example I have comcast xfyinity cable as well and my 1st set up failed selecting "comcast" as the brand so I looked at my receiver and it was made by Scientific Atlantic or some shat like that lol. But it worked choosing it that way. Hope this helps u?

Yes I am sure as I noticed it myself and we dug into it. The icon is still in the framework but it is no longer used or called upon when a headset is plugged in.

Yeah looks like they missed this one as well similar to Dec bug. Also I noticed MMS function turning on when adding multiple recipients while testing.

hmmm I just tried mine and couldn't get it to work either..
You should be able to plug it straight in, no need to restart tablet.
I have noticed an issue with regard to compatability of tv's though. I have a 42" and 32" LG lcds and a 21" samsung lcd tv upstairs, and they all work fine. Just plug it in and go. However there are a pair of toshiba lcd's downstairs, both different models, but niether of them will output audio over hdmi, despite displaying pictures just fine.
My phillips lcd world's just fine... I just wish google would scale the aspect ratio on everything not just google movies...
Try it on panasonic gt30, lg plasma and a cheap tv

Sounds like you need to send it back... I've never had a problem
I should be getting a new cable tomorrow to test. I hope mine isn't a dud too. My A500 had no problem connecting to both my vizio tvs.
I had this problem but I just left it for a month came back and all was fine. Can't explain why.
Just tried my new hdmi cord and it works great. I bought a 6 foot cable off ebay for 5 bucks.
I hope you gets yours fixed!
Found the problem ...
Looks like i have a really bad nexus .. The jack it s devective . if i hold the cable head inside in some position it works but i need send it to service because unfortunately i cant ask for a replace ...
Uff Im tired of problems with this ..

Make sure it's the Nexus and not simply the cable. I have a couple of micro usb cables that in both phone and nexus 10 only work if the cable is pushed upwards when connected. Other cables work just fine.
just got my mini hdmi adapter and hooked it up to the Sony brava downstairs and it works great. come up to our room and hook it to our philips 5000series 42" 1080p TV and only audio comes out and a black picture. tried 3 different hdmi cables and same thing. one cable is for my xbox the other for the cable box and they work on those devices but not the n10.
I tried 6 cables by now . from cheap to expensive, different formats ... All worked or no like i described earlier up . the socket its not working for me .

Unfortunatelly I've Panasonic TVs VT30 & GT30 which do not give sound out from the Nexus10 _and_ Onkyo 806 receiver which doesn't give the picture out from the Nexus10.
Here is the solution: 1 X 2 Port HDMI To HDMI Splitter Switcher Amplifier Box for HDTV PS3 TV 1080P
I got mine from banggood.com 'SKU043635' $18.70

It will detect and do it on setup. Mine did anyway. I have Comcast and it ask about on setup. Try adding room and trying setup again or wiping data/cache then try. I love this application I keep finding my self shutting off TVs everywhere lol. Everything from McDonald's menus to TVs at wall mart lol good luck

I messed with WatchOn for a couple of weeks when I first got my phone. But I'm kind of over it now. The functions on the phone to control the device are just not adequate. Like an overly simple $3 remote from WalMart or something. They could have put so much more functionality in there. All I can figure is Samsung wants to do some data mining on what you are watching, but they're going to have to build a better product to get me to use it anymore.
If you want a fully-featured remote app, I've heard good things about the Smart Remote for Galaxy S4 app.

Is there a way to get a better distance or an app that reaches farther. Watch on never works for me unless I'm up on the TV.
Is it just me or is watchon like that with everyone.

The IR sensor seems to be VERY directional....mine can reach from across the room, but I have to litterally point the IR transmitter from my phone directly at the IR receiver on the TV in order for it to work. Same with my DirectTv box. It doesn't spread out like a normal IR transmitter on a remote does, unfortunately.

What apps are the best for this IR ?
One reason I got this tablet was to try miracast. I picked up a Panasonic. Blue ray player that supports miracast. It was easy to configure and works great! I don't know why but was surprised that it sends the sound also.

Isn't this Miracast that requires the screen to be on all the time ?

Yes, it appears that the screen must be on to enable screen mirroring. That is OK for me. I have it on right now with my 50" plasma TV and using my bluetooth keyboard. I just use the tablet kind of like a mouse pad since I don't know how to naviigate to everything with the keyboard.
