G2X as Desktop PC port Petition - T-Mobile LG G2x

Hey everyone. User, Lokifish, over on the Evo 4G forums ahs developed a way to use the Evo4g as a desktop PC. He fields requests to port his stuff as long as there is a desire for the technology in the new device's community. This thread is a petition I am starting to have this tech ported to the G2X. I know not everyone would use it but it would help me out a lot. Im sure there are other folks out here that would like it as well. Here is a link to his thread so you guys can see what he's done with it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038840 Personally, my g2x is more powerful than my little netbook and i would much rather use the g2x all the time than have to mess with my PC. so please support guys. I love CM7, love Faux's kernel. LOve all the work you all have been doing for our device. Please just drop your name. say you would be interested so I can get Lokifish to port. Thanks everyone and if this is misplaced I apologize. I think it would be cool at the very least. Thanks guys!

hell yes this would be sweet!

I 2nd this motion anyway to limit the use windows

Well if anyone can confirm this than i guess its a moot point. I already use LCD Density changer to give me mroe screen real estate. Would want to know if a pointer shows on the screen with BT mouse. Biggest thing would be implementing a windowed UI. that way we can switch apps quickly if using for desktop use.

That would be sweet. I am all for it.

Me.
I don't see which are the benefits of this over a PC at all.

I'm pretty sure CM7 supports all this already. I have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard at home, and a HDMI cable.
Essentially what you do is lower the DPI setting to give you a Desktop-like resolution, then on a monitor it runs just like a basic Linux distro. A good email and office application, browser, etc. Basic stuff.
(FYI-This kind of stuff is why I wanted a separate power/HDMI port)

Use evo as bluetooth keyboard for ps3

Hi, im on my phone right now so I can't really look as well as if I had my laptop, but I wanted to know if it is possible to for the evo to display a screen of just a keyboard and use that as a bluetooth keyboard to use on ps3 or if there is something that does that already can someone point it out? Thanks
Or maybe even use the evo as a mic

So there is no way to do this? This would be a really nice app if anyone ever created this.
There is an app named PRemote and it does what i ask i just can't seem to pair it with my ps3

I would be more interested in using a PS3 controller with the Evo like on the n900
http://gizmodo.com/5464531/use-a-sixaxis-controller-to-play-emulated-games-on-your-nokia-n900
but this could be useful too
Yeah i would definitely like the ps3 controller on my evo but i would really like to use my phone as a keyboard so when i play online or use the web i wont have to connect my usb keyboard to the console. Anyone?

I can't help you much except I can confirm there's an app capable of this, I was looking into it for my phone at one point. Keep looking and you'll find it, wish I could help more but I can't recall what it was called.
never used it and cannot confirm it works for xoom but google found me this:

Anybody get this to work in g2x?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
havent tried on g2x yet... works perfectly on my transformer...
I've done some research when i read this post and the developer was actually using an LG G2X in the video demonstrating that it works.... I'm also confirming because I just bought the app... thanks for letting me know about this app
It works on cm7. I used it to navigate around my phone, but I don't know of any games that support it.
it works just like the wiimote app does have to use cm7 to get it to work however

Mouse and keyboard are different in ICS

Hey was trying out leaked ICS and every thing was cool. Except not so much the keyboard. But the mouse doesn't work like it did with GB. The mouse no longer right clicks to back out. And wheel doesn't seem to work any more.
Any one else having this problem?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Mouse?? Keyboard?? U must be using bluetooth. Most members don't use such features, myself included to be honest.
Yea Bluetooth. Use them all the time with the phone. especially when hooked up to a TV.
Keyboard works fine. But mouse functions are different. And can't change them.
Really bummed.

[Q] Swiftkey Flow

What do you guys think of it?
http://www.swiftkey.net/introducing-swiftkey-flow
Given that I consider SwiftKey the best keyboard out there for the way I use one, I think it would be an awesome topic for the Apps section!
>>> POOF <<<<
That was amazing!
I'm looking forward to trying it out. I did sort of like Swype, but it was just to buggy, its predictions too far off the mark, and no ability to edit the user dictionary made me leave it behind long ago.
Looks neat I signed up for the beta, tried out touchpal the other day, seemed too bloated but this looks somewhat promising. Thanks for the share.

Why is Flow disabled under special circumstances, such as search bars (except google search).

It is explained on their support site here:
http://support.swiftkey.net/forums/...tion-to-use-swiftkey-predictions-everywhere-i
But, basically, there are two flags that android developers can use to let a keyboard know not to supply predictions. One of them is for a field that offers its own autocorrect. SwiftKey 3 behaves the same way. You can't flow anywhere that you don't have predictions. I hope that they change this and I hope that Google/Android changes how these flags work.
Just went ahead and downloaded this. Been wanting a nice swipe app. This works really well so far. Diggin the customization ability of it too.
Sucks battery like no tomorrow, from what I can tell. CM9 here.
