Froyo and google chrome

I remember seeing that with FROYO we could link to Google Chrome and auto transfer files from the PC to our phone wireless over WIFI. Has anyone got this to work?
Here is a link from Ekostons He has it all in one place with directions. http://droidgawk.com/2010/05/22/froy...e2phone-links/

So, do I need to install an app on the phone too? ---- I guess I'll try it.

yup, you need to install the app on the phone and the extension onto google chrome browser

Mine only opens the map but doesn't pin to the sent location?

i made it easy and all in 1 page for people to get at rather then bunch of pages.

good job, makes it easer

I didn't find the directions too difficult to follow...though they didn't really make it very clear that the apk needs to be registered first.
However, even though I register the app on my phone with my email address, my computer still says unregistered. Any ideas? I'm using google apps with a custom domain. It took my login, it just said it was unregistered...

Good guide EkostonS. I got it working. But uhm what's the purpose for this chrome-phone extension? It just opens up the link on the phone? Perhaps I am missing the bigger picture, haha.

did u click the link in the guide to login on your computer? step 4 or 5? cant remember not looking at the guide at this time.
you must login to that for this to recognize to send.
and the point is to send things from your comp to your phone.
such as, MAPS, LINKS, VIDEOS
watching youtube video and ur leaving? send to your phone.
want to bookmark a site on your phone ur viewing on ur pc? send to your phone
and one of my fav's
want to download a cd torrent on your phone? download a torrent app on your phone, send the link from pc to phone and download !

works great with maps

I also made a video of it. I like this new froyo feature!!!
Sorry my Macro switching sucks!

What app do you use? (Help)

I've had my EVO for 2 days now, switching over from Windows Mobile, so I'm a noob with it at this point. I need help with acquiring some apps that I need to get. I've searched the forums but no luck :/ I used to have my Touch Pro 2 hooked up with these apps and now want to do the same for my EVO I would greatly appreciate it if you guys can share. He we go:
1.)Screen shot capture app
2.)Call recording app
3.)Schedule sms/mms messages
4.)WiFi router app
5.)MS Office (if possilble, not sure)
6.)Wi-Fi Remote Access
If anybody has these apps or knows a link to these apps I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks guys!

2.) Dunno
3.) Dunno
4.) There's a non-Market Wifi-tether app. listed on this forum (best non-market apps thread). Works great, but you'll need to root your phone (I'm newer, and rooted my phone in 30 minutes using the "for noobs" tutorial)
5.) Dunno

01.) Shoot Me seems to be the most popular. *(Although you must be rooted)*
02.) There are one or two threads ( i think over in the Q&A Section ) but it seems like most of the suggestion are just to search the Market for "call recording" after also getting a few suggestion to the legality of recording calls.
03.) Sorry, not sure, the best i can do is suggest searching AppBrain or AndroLib & just trying out the highest rated / most downloaded.
04.) I have Wireless Tether because it came with my ROM, but i didn't see it on AppBrain.
05.) Documents To Go seems to edit *.doc's, although i've never used it.
06.) Sorry for the dumb question, but do you mean WiFi access to the Phone or Desktop? SwiFTP FTP Server to access your EVO over WiFi. Or PhoneMyPC seems to be another popular app to access your PC from your Phone, however it costs $9.99. I'm sure another user may have a better free suggestion if that's what you're looking for.

you need to have a rooted phone for shootme don't you?

LAST.FM FREE - Now removed from Market

Sure, this app allowed you to download songs for free... but it was still a cool interface & a nice quick way to load up a track(especially old hard-to-find ones). I just had the .apk installed last night but loaded a new rom today & then saw it was gone.
Sadly, this was an .apk I didnt keep a backup of on my pc otherwise i'd try installing it again now. Anyone else used it?

Was it the official Last.fm app? If that's the case, I'm still seeing it. Humm.
Market Link.

I followed your link to the market and it seems working fine for me but there are many disappointing comments about its use in my country (Greece) even if you are a premium user... The link is active though

Indeed... I can also view the market link so we can safely assume that the app itself, wasn't actually removed. Also, Greek users are very disappointed by it because one cannot listen to music from his phone even if he/she is a premium user, as dimnik83 stated... which is in fact strange. English, German and American users, seem to be enjoying the use of this app to its fullest but us Greeks... well that's a different story... sadly. That aside, Last.fm is still up and running on the market.

im not talking about the official app. it was another app that was entitled Last.FM Free.
if you do a google search for " last.fm free " it shows up on the search results(7th link), but when you click it it's gone.

even whozzaat free message to india apps is deleted from the market..
how do we get them ?..

Same case ... searching for "Last.FM Free Version 3.1.1" NOT the official Last.FM Apk.
Could someone upload the file here?
It is removed from the Android Market. That would be great ! Thanks in advance.

Sorry for double posting ... but ;-)
here the link to the forum with current version of Last.FM Free

Sounds like the official version will be discontinued soon as well:
http://www.talkandroid.com/29634-last-fm-will-no-longer-allow-free-streaming-to-mobile-devices/
Apparently its not cost effective on Android but its fine on Xbox Live and Windows Phone 7. I find that kind of odd since Android has a lot higher user base than Windows Phone. But I bet Microsoft made a deal with them.

that's a bummer

I really hope you get this.
I emailed the developer of this app cos I had it on a phone from 2010, even though I couldn't directly view detail for the app, the developer name was right underneath it.
Developer: Danik
Actual application download:
music free android dot com
I JUST joined this site, just to give you specifically that information after googling last.FM free this link was first.
It won't let me post the actual link.
You are ultra mega welcome!!!

[Q] Any alternative to ShareKM?

Hi, I have used ShareKM (from playstore) to share the keyboard and mouse of the pc to the android device. It was usefull for many reasons, but it seems that the developer stop the project (I don't know it for sure). Now I have a message that tells me the beta apk expired and it stops and exits.
Do you know any other alternative to share the keyboard and mouse of a PC with and android device?
P.D.: Synergy is another option, but it is alpha and doesn't work very well.
Thank you.

I would like to hear a very solid alternative for sharekm too !

I can only guess you did not install the server program from the official source (my website) and somehow were a victim of a faked or modified program.
My app definitely does NOT change any browser mainpage (are you talking about the server computer or the Android device?). It also definitely does NOT contain any virus. I hear from some virus scanners (Panda Security) detecting individual threads in the server program, but they are always false alarms based on the vague heuristics those scanners rely on.
I can only ask you to download the Free version from Play Store and server from my website (fdmobileinventions.blogspot.com) and hopefully give it another try :fingers-crossed:

What specific server version did you download? Could you send me the link you used? Are you sure you used DeskDock and not another app/program? Did you probably install ADB drivers from a shady source?
I'm 100% sure my program definitely does not change any browser start page nor contain any virus.

[MOD] Spotify tablet mode

Good evening!
If you're reading this, then you for sure know what Spotify is. We all love listening to music and, ugh, that's the synonym of Spotify!
Unfortunately, this work could be used for two fully opposite reasons, one of which is against the XDA rules, so I had no other choice but to close this thread (and remove links). I hope you understand me and sorry for the inconvenience.
Feel free to read the history below. It was a fun ride!
Time ago, the app landed on our lovely Android platform for both tablets and phones and honestly who wasn't excited?
Soon after, forced shuffle mode and limited number of skips were also introduced and I agree that there must be a reason to purchase Premium after all. Luckily, this restriction was not enabled on tablets, but a problem that appears is that far from all tablets are detected as ones - mainly the "smaller" ones. This [bug/miss-code] activates the restriction on your tablet, and as a fix was needed from either side, here was my solution.
This mod was created for all those "small tablets" that are incorrectly recognized so that you can use Spotify the way it was meant to be used.
ViRb3 said:
Regarding Facebook log in issue:
The signature/private hash (or not) of this app was not matching the original one Spotify had registered on Facebook. Absolutely understandable since this was a modified version.
As suggested by Romain12345 (thank you!), can you log in with your Facebook credentials instead of clicking on the "Log in with Facebook" button.

MEGA is never down, it only needs the app for android if you want to download from phone. That's the reason I personally won't mirror.
About installing, you need to have "Unknown sources" enabled in your Security settings. Then just open the APK and install it as normal. If you still can't figure it out check YouTube for thousands of tutorials.

@ViRb3 It doesn't work on gingerbread android again...
I think it's a problem of apk version because on Google play it was written that the version varies with device.
So please If you give me your email, I'll send the last apk version of spotify compatible with gingerbread to you.

OP I could possibly kiss you all day and it wouldn't be enough. Worked like a charm.
Also the server seemed to be down only in parts around the world. So anyone being unable to connect simply use a VPN. Works perfectly with a VPN.
Though it is currently up again.

Op finally I got it downloaded. Thanks so much but I have a question. Is it possible for me to download for offline for free with this mod?

Absolutely not. I am not "hacking" Spotify and making it Premium-free and that will never be my aim. I am just making it possible to run in tablet mode on smaller tables.
