Thanx bro.. Jus what I needed..!!
U20i miniCMpro v6.01.2 by slade..

Nice
Also found some app what uses te magnetic compas as a metaldetector.
Not fot serious use but just for fun.
It cauld "easy metal detector" can be found in the market.

How about having a look in the Marketplace. You ll find plenty of apps, e.g. droidcam , ip webcam ....

It gaves so many apps for android and a little bit for windows

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?

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!

ive done everything but when i typed adb devices my device does not show...i even connect it to pc,use automount but still the same
I would recommend Webkey, very feature rich and easy to use. It may not be fast but it gets the job done.

Hey, for whoever it may help, I'm printing happily to my HP Bluetooth printer using printershare. I hope to try wifi printing also, but don't currently have access to a Wi-Fi printer.
hi..
yesterday i've tried to connect my gtab to a printer using usb cable (via usb hub for gtab), on notification : "printer detect", but can not print, maybe because its still need driver, is there any possibilities to use usb printer? and if it does, do we have to use samsung only printer?
thanks in advance, and sory for my bad english.

As far as I know you need to download an app for your tab to print. I would imagine there is one in the market for cheap or free. You would then share it like you would to Facebook, etc.. And select the app

is it like PrinterShare or Printbot? yes i'm aware there's app for printing, but they used wireless method or cloud method to print (frok what i've tried). what im asking is that using direct usb to the printer to print, because the tab is detecting printer being connected : "printer detect" when i plug usb to the printer but when i try to print from polaris office or gallery using print command, it rejected by : "only samsung printer can be use, you want continue?", then it failed to print (cause im using canon). what i want to ask is there any possibilities to print using other brand by using direct usb and not wireless or cloud method?
thanks.
Not that I know of. Is there no way that you can at least hook it to a computer and just print to it over your home network
Sent from my HTC Glacier using Tapatalk
yes,..i've tried that, and it works. but still curious about expanding the usefull of usb host that tab has. right now with usb hub, i've manage to use keyboard, mouse and a 250gb external hdd alltogether, so im wondering if a usb printer can be use too, after that maybe hoping that i can use my usb mini projector,...hehehe. thanks for the explanation m8, and sorry for my bad english.
thanks.

reverse tether

can someone create a zip that i can flash to my phone so that i can use my usb cable to my phone to get internet from my laptop ...
running hellfire sandwich v1.6
probably not, if your laptop has a sticker on it saying it was built for windows 7, then you can get a program that will allow your laptop to become a hotspot (like our phones can) if not then its most likely going to be some kind of 3rd party app on both your phone and your computer.
Search the Google Play Store, and Google. if nothing shows up then your probably out of luck.
i have an app on my phone called 'reverse tether' but it doesnt wanna connect ..

the zip is corrupt, link to the download in the app store itself instead.
also, read the description carefully, most of those types of apps need a program to run on the computer too.
try it now .. thx

no, i cant help unless i know where you got the apk from. was it from the google market? did it come with instructions? was it a 3rd party app store? what versions of android is it made for? does it need a program to run on the computer as well?
i need a link to where you got it from.
got it on the market.. its made for droid 2.2+ there isnt any app that needs to run on the pc ... u just need lg drivers installed.. i get it to show up as an network connection via usb from the phone but it just stays at "unidenified network" wont get internet access
and if you would of just installed the apk you would see that the instructions are built into the app

i think This is the app your talking about.
if it is, then take down the .apk, because its a paid app and you cant post that stuff here.
second, ICS Drivers are kinda messed up with USB tethering, so try it on an GB Rom and see if it works.
and finally, im helping you because i want to, all i asked for was a link to the market app, and you just cannot even take the time to do that, so this is all the time im going to put into helping you. if what i said above does not help, then good luck.
Edit: also, im not going to install an apk from an unreliable source. turns out, there are such things as viruses and malware for android phones.
well thanks anyways..
i think your statement with ics drivers is right ..appreciate your time
Get the program called Connectify for your laptop. You can rebroadcast your Internet as wifi with it. Then just connect via wifi.

Simple? An app that syncs my dslr with my phone and fires the phones flash?
I've googled it many times with nothing even close.
If you can point me to an app that does that or can make one, then be my guest
