Play Android Games on your Pc With BlueStacks Beta 1

I posted in the 3d forum, but will re-post for all here:http://bluestacks.com/
BlueStacks' NEW Android App Player for PC. Run android apps on Windows PC.
BlueStacks just opened its Beta doors a few days ago.
If you own a Window’s anything (laptop or desktop), you MUST try out BlueStacks App Player.
It is not slow and jerky like phone emulators or like Amazon’s virtual playground for some apps in its appstore.
Of course, not every app will work with BlueStacks, but SO MANY of them do. It is worth playing with.
Your Phone Will Sync All The Favs!
Another great perk is that you can link your phone to the app player on your laptop or desktop with their Cloud Connect app.
This app installs on your Android phone and allows you to pick and choose which apps from your phone you want synced to your desktop.
You will have access to the Amazon AppStore and Get Jar and a few other appstores right out of the gate.

Nope, that is a draw back. Hopefully they will fix it when it goes live.

that would be awesome on windows 8 with a touch screen monitor, some hardware maker should bundle this with their touch laptop or windows 8 tablets as they will auto inherit 1000's of touch apps or an android vendor should integrate with their android pc suite like samsungs kies if it ever gets fixed
seriously

Wow looks amazing. Does it have a good framerate?

I tried the program in windows 8 on a vhd partition and I couldn't get it to function at a usable speed, seems very slow like a 200mhz cpu or something..

running full speed HD games on a mediocre windows 7 PC here

I like this, it makes it look like a tablet. Hopefully a future update is to make it look like ICS rather than Gingerbread.
A nice feature I found out accidentally was that if you have a webcam plugged into you computer then you can use the camera app to take pics with it.

Wow, sweet!

The ARM emulation can be a bit slow, not optimal for running games. It will virtualize anything it can in x86, but most games are ARM only.
Bluestacks does plan on making a version for Windows 8 ARM tablets and since ARM can then be virtualized instead of being emulated it should have no performance issues.

wow this is interesting...! thanks for this

This seems nice, will try it asap.

i'll try this, thanks a loooot!

Having tried the BlueStacks emulator recently, I can attest that it's very easy to set up and get playing your favorite Android games right on your desktop. However, it's only available for Windows currently and you have to install the Cloud Connect app on your phone to get it to sync with apps only found in the Android market.
If you want something that actually runs the full Android OS on any platform (through VirtualBox) and doesn't limit you to GetJar or Amazon's app stores, you should check out Android-x86. I made a video yesterday showing how to install the Android-x86 emulator in less than 5 minutes.
Granted, it's not quite as streamlined as BlueStacks, but it grants access to all the Android apps you would normally have on any 4.0 device and seems to run much more smoothly.
Written Android-x86 Installation Tutorial

Ever heard of mobilism ?

Thxx a lott

Very cool find OP. This thing certainly seems to be more than capable of most of our games: I just got a 4826 on Quadrant, and a 9633 on Antutu.
I don't know if this is the necessary way to do it, but I got ADW Launcher and Play Store installed by installing this, then going to system/apps and installing g1.apk. The default settings app is in there too.
And the settings app claims the model is "GT-N7000", or the Galaxy Note. Anybody know if this ROM is based on that, or if they are just trying to emulate the phone?
I'm trying for root now.

I would love to see a Linux client, but this looks cool.

how about emulate android app,, it can??

Superb Man. Good Work.

I was going to give this a try but i use ubuntu. Is it possible to get it working on Linux?
The app looks pretty nice and I've been looking for a way to use my phone to control my computer but I haven't been able to get any other app working for me. Thanks for sharing your work either way. I'm surprised no one else has tired this out since it's free.

The link isn't chinese. You've probably just got some sort of weird redirection. Try it again. It worked fine for everyone else...

I have a problem - I can't connect via WiFi

Since i mostly play Racing games i'll definetly need to try this out

Are you connected to the same WiFi network? Did you type in the same IP address as your computer says? Have you tried it via a VPN?

Oh and I forgot to mention:
The app works like a charm. Bit laggy on the PC side, but that's probably just me (Pentium IV 1x2.8GHz)
Oh, and you should get rid of those pop-up ads. They can be a bit annoying. The ones on the mobile side would do you just right

OK! just tell me how to connect your mobile to PC? I installed the app in the mobile, when open it, it has the space to enter the ip address, I entered the ip address of my wifi host (connectify's local ip address). It says connection failed.
I think I need to install the server in my PC like gmote, so I went to mnect.com and its all in chinese..

Yes, the same network and the same IP address. Still nothing... I have the information "Connection failed".

What about wrapped version, Chrome won`t let me download it, malware/phising. ??

[APP][4.0+] Icy Monitor - Monitor your PC from your Android device

Hello everyone!
Yesterday I released my first Android App called Icy Monitor, it helps you monitor your PC using your android device.
Features
Get graphs about your CPU (load, temperature, clock, power), GPU (load, clock, temperature, fan) and system (fans, temperature, voltages).
Customize graph colors to your liking.
Get information about each filesystem and each process running.
Save and monitor multiple computers effortlessly.
Clean, beautiful interface with tablet support.
The app is free, without advertisments and open source!
Downloads
Play Store
Windows Server
Github (for source)
Setup
Download the server application using the link above. Extract all files somewhere and run the application as administrator (otherwise, I am not allowed to read most sensors). An icon should appear at your system tray, right click it and select 'Open Firewall', this will open port 26822 which is used by the app (This only works with Window's Firewall, if you are using something else you must open port 26822 yourself). Now you can connect from the phone app by typing in your computer's IP address followed by ":26822". If you want to access the server through the Internet you will have to setup port forwarding, which is a different procedure for every router so I cannot help you.
If you don't know your IP, open a command line window and write "ipconfig". You should find your IPv4 address there.
More info
For more info, please visit my page or just ask here. Feel free to mail me at any time.
Thanks a lot for trying my app! Any feedback (positive/negative) is extremely appreciated!

Theoritically, the server could run on Linux with Mono but being a former Linux user I know Mono is not the best option. I am brainstorming this, I hope to be able to support Linux soon.
Thanks for the interest however!

Harmless little bump.

I followed all the instructions then tried setting it up on my device. I was a little confused why it refused to use a domain name. Nonetheless I entered my IP address. Now I get the error "Incompatible server version". Am I doing something wrong?

There was no activity in this thread so I forgot to update the server download link. Try this version. Sorry for the trouble.
Also it SHOULD accept domain names, it worked with mine (looks like this: something.dyndns.info). Maybe it's a port forwarding issue?

Everything works now, thanks! Once I installed the new server version I was able to connect via IP and domain. Before the domain said it couldnt connect and the IP said incompatible.
This is a very handy app for on the go.

Hi everybody, im trying to control my nexus 5 trough PC but every single app for VNC server on Google Play returned me a Black Screen on the client for my nexus 5, altough the input worked perfectly (mouse and keyboard)

You can try with Teamviewer Quick Support.
It needs root access to control the device but it works flawlessly!

I tried every VNC server app, but no one worked on my Nexus 5 4.4.2.
Black or fuzzy screen on the client (UltraVNC).
Or the servers had problems to start.
Except VMLite VNC Server:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vmlite.vncserver&hl=en
It costs a lot, almost $10, but it works like a charm! Fast and reliable.
If you set only 256 colors in the VNC client, it's damned fast! :good:
Also this VNC server requires a rooted device.

It also provides users with unlimited storage capacity, Windows and Mac compatibility, and the freedom to play the most popular mobile games on a desktop. With phone as a joystick, you will never have to sacrifice the multi-touch or gyro elements of gaming, and thanks to seamless connection between desktop and mobile, you can receive a SnapChat phone picture on the street and see it on your desktop at home or just download Whatsapp for pc.
Configuration: thanks to @NexusGTS

I'm game. Been looking for a good alternative to BlueStacks.

OP has 6 posts, just one reply since yesterday (and only cause XDA just tweeted it), the big image is embedded from a piracy site that hosts cracked android apps... so, is this legit?
Edit: Link to official site - http://andyroid.net/

I think site should provide the full package for slow internet connection.

Sorry, why to put this on XDA Forums after almost a year of its availability?

It might not make much of a difference with desktop PC's but, something limited in CPU performance Andy OS doesn't seem to run well, tested on my T100TA (x86 baytrail tablet) was choppy and laggy. DuOS runs extremely well on the same tablet, worth noting and trying if you have the same or similar device.

The online installer seems kinda limited for some people with slow internet connections like me.

To run android apps on PC I use Genymotion, it's smoother and customizable

Cute, I went to the download link and got a message about it being in closed alpha.

I believe there is, check their Facebook page. It's still going to be the same size whether the installer downloads the required files or you download a large setup package.
