Ok I decided to spare a few hours yesterday to come up with an android app to access my humax foxsat hdr with adrianf36 excellent web remote. Basically the app just dynamically generates buttons and communicates with the web remote to control the box.
This is a very early build (2.5 hours) so I plan on doing much more to it
This is also a test version, so there will be things I have forgot or disabled.
IMPORTANT :
It requires android wifi state and settings cause in the 1st initial startup it will check to see if wifi is on and then start it.
VERY IMPORTANT:
Since instead of writing a whole new app, I grabbed frameworks from my library, and a few other apps to chuck something together quickly. Now, if your phone is ROOTED one of the imported frameworks will ask for permissions (due to part of that framework being used to kill/restart the System Bar in HoneyComb)... just say no and it will start anyways. This will be all tidy in a final release. There are many things in it at the moment that need adaptation away from the main app that I ripped them from...
I plan to:
Anyways thanks to adrianf36 who gave me all the info i needed.

I'm looking for people to test and either say yes, its worth doing and developing more....and suggestions......or the opposite
Built for android 2.3.3

I plan to:
- Do some nice button styles that are relevant rather than the generic one thats there!
- Finalise the sections.
- Add channel list selector.
- Change the section transition animations.
- Make sure all the buttons and layouts are working for the task at hand.
- Create a custom key creator for custom functions and macros.
- Attempt to integrate some kind of channel guide.
- Switch to pure telnet or stick with http (not sure)
- maybe much more....depends on demand......
