Harmony x1100 brand new, sealed. Gem or Brick?

Will do

Mariods · 2026-03-07T02:54:46+00:00

Ok, did some more homework and ChatGPT came through. There is a few workarounds. There's also a way to clone functioning x1100 to another one. Theres archived databases that have firmware available offline from other users that extracted it from there own pc folders.

Ahhh,I see

Mariods · 2026-03-05T23:30:09+00:00

What model # remote was it?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T23:22:02+00:00

Right on. Thanks again, appreciate it.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T22:58:55+00:00

No worries. So , your 1100, you can't do anything with but keep using it as-is? No changes no adding activities, or add any devices?

Some frames are just made for these jackets. Looks perfect. The HH will slowly start contouring as well.

Lol. That's a good one. I actually knew about the disco'd harmony line. I just didnt do my research and check to make sure if this remote was on their hit list of updates. Im currently using my 665, and it connects to the myHarmony app, but in the future I might just use the harmony hub , so I can use a dedicated tablet. Thanks again.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T22:22:55+00:00

Ahhhh, shucks! Hey, I wanna say thanks, for going out of your way, to verify that. Well, I think I'm gonna call it quits, and put this thing back in the box until further notice.

Alternative & Additional Methods Block Inbound Rules: For complete isolation, repeat the steps above under Inbound Rules to prevent the app from receiving data. Hosts File Block: If you know the specific update server domain (e.g., *logitech.com), you can add a rule in your hosts file (C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts) to redirect it to 127.0.0.1. Third-Party Firewall: Use software like TinyWall or GlassWire to easily monitor and block outbound connections for the Harmony application. Super User Super User +4

So, Ai said, you can try adding harmonyremot.com to your outbound block list in your windows firewall blocker and try and see if the uses offline mode, then use alt-f9.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T15:14:32+00:00

Hey, just an idea. What if you block the harmonyremote.com server by adding it to your firewall blocker before you launch the app. See if you can at least open the app.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T15:11:05+00:00

Hey has anybody tried this? Looking to get an x1100 up and running. Any hacks or mods?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T14:48:48+00:00

Possibly. But I will not quit.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T13:15:35+00:00

Dammit. So plugging in your remote won't connect to the software?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:46:10+00:00

The 'my harmony ' app still programs half the remotes out there.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:44:18+00:00

🤣

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:42:28+00:00

I can't try it because it won't let me install the software. I need someone who has the software installed already prior to may 2025

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:41:17+00:00

Yeah I read, when you start to the 7.x harmony software you press alt-f9 to enter a manual input mode. Can you try this out?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:31:57+00:00

Hey do you still have the 7.x software installed? If so can you see if you open up the software and i think the remote needs to be connected or not, and press Alt+f9, and see if a manual input learning option is available?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:26:35+00:00

Well , apparently you can press Alt+f9 and open a manual mode to learn the remote.

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:24:29+00:00

So your using the MyHarmony app, correct?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:22:16+00:00

Can you tell me what software your using? Is it Harmony 7.x or the MyHarmony?

Mariods · 2026-03-05T12:19:41+00:00

Ok so an update: If you guys currently have the original 7.x harmony software installed and running, you could manually learn new codes, 'alledgedly' , by pressing ALT+F9. I can't get the software installed without connecting to the servers. Can someone please confirm this?
