Been using this one on my GS5 remote for over a year now and it runs great. Set up is simple and connects to almost anything that requires an ir blaster. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
Sure Remote is also a good one, but has ads on the free version. I just started using it for my receiver because my spawn decided to lose the remote and I've not had any issues with the app.
You could probably use the App SURE universal remote. This thing is awesome. I use it for everything in my house. Toshiba TV, LG TV, Yamaha Receiver, JVC boombox from like 1995. This thing works on everything I ever tried to use it on, usually the first attempt when pairing to a device. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities&hl=en_US
Sure, I've been using it for a bit and it seems to be pretty good. It's definitely better than Peel at this point.
I used Sure for a bit a while back. Looks like they seriously updated the app since then, though, so I can't 100% recommend it.
Mine came with the "Peel Smart Remote" app installed. It works OK for me but apparently newer versions are bad about ads (I haven't updated mine in a long time). Per suggestions below, I tried SURE and it seems to work well. You'll have to know at least the brand of TV you're trying to control, maybe even the model for some.
I use SURE universal remote for TV. I don't use it on daily basis but it seems good so far. So far I have set up one lg and one Philips TV. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
I've been using Sure Universal Remote and it seems to do a pretty good job. It has a lot of presets in it already which make it really easy to use. I'm on mobile but here is a link, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
According to my research that remote is not capable of controlling a DVD player. But that's not Comcast's responsibility. Can your phone run the Sure app? That's my goto tv remote on the go. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
SURE (sa fii conectat la internet cand o folosesti, downloadeaza multe remote-uri suplimentare cand adaugi un TV de un anume brand).
Reading the manual, you need to access the menu on the projector first, defeating the purpose of turning it on without the remote. Do you have a Logitech Harmony or a Smartphone with an IR blaster? If so, you can still turn on the projector. If you use the smartphone IR blaster, just download SURE. It has the remote codes for your PRM-30
I use Sure universal remote. It is so flipping amazing. Has every code you could imagine. It even has a code for my 5 year old fan with IR and my 20 year old AC unit with IR.

Active development and will add any missing functionality if you let them know.
If you have an Android phone with an IR blaster (such as Galaxy or G4) you can use this app to control the TV. Otherwise you could also order a Universal Remote.
You need to activate a hidden menu on the TV via a phone app.

Turn on your TV and trigger this menu from the app.
(both need to be on the same WiFi network)
Then download the 04.10.15 firmware to a USB, plug it in the TV, and choose the file:

I use this one, can set up custom remotes etc.

there is also this SURE app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
Sure is okay, if a bit slow with a busy interface, but it can be used for free.

I've been using this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities works well for me, although I do miss the old Sense TV app.
Are you using IR or WiFi? If IR give the below app a try, handy for setting up custom remotes.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
This one has IR and network Sure
Here you go.
In my opinion, Sure is the best one.
> "SURE" smart remote
This isn't it? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities&hl=en_US
Try this app out. It works over wifi.
Would the Sure app not work for this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
For a better alternative, use Sure.
Great list! Thank you. For IR remote control, I'll recommend SURE, it has more options and it's free.

There are others but this is the one i'm using.
SURE Universal TV Remote
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
Yes, it is called Sure. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities&hl=en
Supposedly if your device is not supported you can ask for them to add it.
Try SURE Universal: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tekoia.sure.activities
It's free. Lots of devices. Few ads, but ad-free version available.
This is the app I use w/ my Samsung Galaxy S5 (Sure Universal Remote).
I use Sure Universal Remote. There are codes for a surprising amount of devices.
This, however, looks like a pretty specialised remote. If you know the model number of whatever you're trying to control, that would help immensely.
If you can get a universal remote working, you're more likely to find a stand alone unit that will work, rather than a Google Play Ap.
Logitech have their Harmony Universal Remotes, Panasonic have a range of universal remotes as well.
Logitech's database of supported items seems bigger than Panasonic's, but search either site for the model number of whatever it is you're controlling.
I don't like your chances, however.
SURE universal remote - Free! great app if your phone has an IR Blaster.. use it to control TVs, ACs..etc!
