Well. It's not so useless. Your TV remote performs all the features of Portal. Either instruct portal to "open apps", open portal" or just go to your chosen HDMI input for portal. Then use up, down, left, right, enter, and volume
with your TV remote as you did with the portal remote.
Oh.... And download the Portal app to have a virtual remote on your phone.
So, If needed, download the Portal app. Run app and click "remote" icon..... Voila! Remote!.. But.. then control portal with virtual remote to go to settings (or say "Hey Portal, open settings") scroll right to "remote", under portal settings onscreen, and set TV AND RECEIVER CONTROL to ON, so that your TV remote will control Portal as well.
