Peter Simpson Expert Licensed User Longtime User Aug 13, 2014 #3 Thank you @NJDude , thank you for the reply. I basically need it to work on all devices with the screen is powered off but the device is physically on(or in stand by mode). It's mainly for myself, I just need it to control one or two phone features on my business mobile when the screen is faced downwards. Upvote 0
