I have a 2017 Shield with Bluetooth only-remote. I have programmed a Flirc to operate it from my Harmony One. This works fine for all functions except the Home button. This button actually has two functions, and a long press brings up recording and some other things. 

 

This is similar to the Enter or OK button, which also does something extra when long pressed. This long press function on this button also works on the Harmony, but the Home button does not. It does switch back to the home page, so that part is working correctly, but a long press does not bring up the extra functions. It just causes the screen to flicker. 

 

This is just another Shield annoyance I could do without. Does anyone know any way to access these extra functions on the Home button with IR?
