Please Don't M - Fuze will stream video via 802.11, synched to PC but not 3G

Second thread - you moved my first one. I have extensively searched the XDA forums and Wiki, not to mention many other forums and numerous Google searches. Based on what I have learned I have hard reset my Fuze leaving off the ATT bloatware, downloaded about 25 apps, including several specifically recommended to work around my problem. I've learned a lot in a short time, and everything is working great except IP camera access. I've tried several other streaming video suggestions without success. I've tried every single suggestion I've found on XDA-Developers and am now back asking a question for which I cannot find an answer, and I believe I have diligently done all the "Noob" stuff - so now I need some help!
I can access streaming video from an Axis 207W IP camera on my Fuze using the HTC Streaming media player via an 802.11 connection and when cabled to my PC but not via 3G. The address is http://(camera IP address)/mjpg/video.mjpg. Works like a champ via wireless or when cabled but won't work over 3G. The only way I can get it over 3G is by using the Skyfire browser, which uses a remote server. Anybody have any ideas about why this is the case? Why I can't get directly to the camera IP address in 3G mode? Is there a setting change I can make on my Fuze?

You might check your proxy settings, as they could be interfering, or perhaps it is a restriction related to AT&T.

I think it has something to do with a block by ATT. I had a similar issue with my server at home. I couldnt control my PC via my phone anymore because it wouldnt connect to my IP. After about a week, it worked again. Now it isnt working once again. I am able to connect to my home PC through my laptop.
at first i suspected that ATT DNS servers or whatever were slow since my server uses dynamic IP, but even trying to connect directly doesnt work.

i doubt its dns since hes using IP address for the cam
it could be at&t's proxy not getting through to your port
i would change it to port 80 on the cam's settings since that is the port used for http web browsing!

spy cam viewer ?

hi to all
i have a 2.4ghz wireless spy cam and was wondering if there was anyway of directly viewing it on my leo ( it does almost everything else )
i curently use a laptop with a reiciever but can be bulky and not very discret
thanx in advance for all help given

It's my dream since a long long time....
No way to watch a wifi cam on it ?

hi i dont have an hd2 yet (its coming tomorrow) but i can tell you its possible to view wifi cams from your hd2
it all depends on how your camera works but if you have a network camera of any type (wifi or wired to lan / pc) then you will probably be able to browse to an ip if youre on the same wifi network
if the camera is on your pc by usb or something you can set up vlc player to stream your camera video to your hd2
even over data tariff
edit: i dont know about the original 2.4ghz camera idea though. they arent bluetooth signals and i dont know about how that would even be possible (with frequencies etc)
if you have a pc that you can leave running, you could get your wireless security camera and connect it to a video input on your pc (gfx card might have it, or a capture card/dongle) then stream the input over your network...

There are plenty of programs that can broadcast a web cam or wificam that can be viewed off local-network if you want. I used to have a web cam setup on my pc that would stream the video. I could log onto the IP with my Fuze and see if somebody was at my house from anywhere in the world.

YawCam is one I have used that is alright and free. Your best bet would be using a computer to grab the wifi cams video feed then from there throw it on a private network that you an log into from the phone. I don't see the phone picking up the signal and then interpreting it to video nor can I see it being able to access the video even when the phone is being used as a wifi router. It might possibly be able to get an ip from the phone being a wifi router but I don't see the phone being able to access it with in it's own router program on it's local network.
If you catch my drift on that gibberish .

Thanks for your answers !
I understand what you mean (and i use that too) but it's not what we look for.
The question is most for that kind of purpose :
spygearco.com/MicroReceiverRecorder-DVR-P160-FreeSpyCamera
I don't know why gtr-viper want to use that camera, but for me (as a magician) it could be a great trick to see what the people do behind my back (or in the next room).
So, i need that kind of camera that use no network but only wifi connection (2.4ghz).
For that cam, they sell an USB adapter to watch the live stream on your PC, that's why i thought that it may be possible to use a good smartphone to see the video too.
(yes, i'm a dreamer ...)

I am using Mobiscope and it is working perfectly on my HD2

Hello,
Anybody willing to share mobiscope.cab for my HD2.
Moreover, what is the best Alarm clock application and a
stop watch application available for the HD2.
I had a good program on sony ericsson k750i.. ( with multiple laps, countdown
timer, Timecounter etc).
Any guidance on this is appreciated with source to grab and try the same.
Thanks in advance.

G-Alarm, it's free and awesome!!!

[Q] Anyone use Splashtop?

I need help. I was talking to a guy that claimed to be a developer of Splashtop, which allows you to run your laptop remotely from your tablet. The app was initially created for iphone/ipad, but is available in the Android market. I was so impressed with the app and how fast and seamless it runs your laptop programs that I purchased without question. Well I have a question: how do you connect to it remotely while away from home? I have turned on laptop, turned off auto shut down, and turned on splashtop on the pc. Everytime I have tried to connect away from home I get an "out of reach" message. I have been as little as 5 miles away. If anyone out there has knowledge of what I may be doing wrong please let me know. The guy told me this should work from anywhere just as long as my computer is turned on and running splashtop.
Thanks!!

I use it on my xoom, and it works great, but I haven't tried using it away from home. Hmm, thanks for the heads up, I want to find out too.

Yes, great at home, but I can just use my laptop. If I can get it to actually work when I am away from home, then it makes my Xoom THE BEST thing to have! I get so tired of carrying my laptop around, this would help.

Yeah i got the splashtop and to make it work outside your home network, you must do port forwarding.
i uninstalled it because now, i keep getting drop connections and if i reconnect, it gives me error saying it is already being accessed by another device. this was both on my home network and accessing it from the outside. it was great but not anymore.
sorry for the rant.

Hmm
For the price it's probably not as good as some of it's competitors, which are closer to 5x the price of this. I would attribute it's lack of quality to the problems such as devices being already connected etc.
As for distance, it makes no difference, the most important thing to do is make sure that if you have a router, it must have the necessary ports forwarded to the computer you want to connect to.
Personally I try to avoid remote desktop and instead try make everything i might want from home accessible via web-apps or various servers.

I don't have the app so I'm just giving some general comments:
Im assuming it works over wifi?
1) Maybe you need to enter the ip address of your home and name a port? then get the router to port forward to your laptop?
2) If it works over wifi, then if your router has the option set up a VPN. then connect to it when ur away from home - then its exactly as if ur xoom is connected to the local network itself

Port forwarding is a new concept to me, so not sure how to do it, but you guys have given me a new thing to Google. Also, I did have my internet run through a router, but I disconnected it because I on have my home internet through ATT Uverse and didn't have anything that really needed to run through it. If you have some quick directions for me, then I will be grateful!

Teamviewer
Teamviewer does it away from home. Theres no sound and fluid video tho

I assume this is similar to Wyse Pocket, and i have never had issues connecting via 3G. Is this a better app?

well your router gets its internet then shares it via with the rest of your computers.
Port forwarding takes all the data from a specific port and forwards it to a specific device.
to start you have to assign ur computer a static ip address (again through your router) then forward all data to it. sorry i cant be more precise but the procedure varies between routers. I have never used the ATT Uverse. Honestly the best thing to do is have a browse thorugh ur manual or google for a guide
try this site to see if your model is listed. if not choose a similar model and try to do similar steps

These apps were made with very different goals in mind...
I use both of these apps for what I believe they were designed for and I'm happy with both. The WYSE PocketCloud app supports RDP / VNC connections but SplashTop doesn't. It's not even really designed for WAN access but rather just LAN access. Yes, unlike PocketCloud you'll need to use port forwarding to use it in the likely unsupported WAN configuration.
SplashTop runs beautifully on my LAN but I don't expect it to work outside those parameters. I think SplashTop has far superior frame rate / audio sync for watching Videos (with / without audio). Is it the optimized support for the Tegra 2? I don't know, but it works and works well. It lets me watch Hulu, NetFlix, etc with rarely a hiccup. PocketCloud can't touch that ATM.
Even though PocketCloud's framerate and audio sync are MUCH worse by comparison to SplashTop making it unusable (even when on my LAN connected by WiFi) for the purpose of watching video through it, I don't begrudge it since I don't believe that's what it's for. It has an awesome UI (I prefer it somewhat over SplashTop's) and works very well over RDP. When the Terminal Services update emerges from closed beta, it will be even more awesome.
These apps probably shouldn't even be compared as they are meant to do different things, different ways. Each works for what they were designed for. Neither is perfect. In my case, both were very easy to setup. Any difficulties I had were caused by my own firewall setup. Neither were expensive IMO.

Has anyone figured out how to connect using mycloud when you are away from home? I've tried port forwarding and the portchecker from portforward.com verifies that my ports are open and are forwarded properly but I still can't seem to connect using my modem's WAN ip.
My modem/router model is smc d3gn and I am connecting directly to it with my computer.
I've also tried using the modem's built in vpn function and I can connect to the vpn (accessing the router setup page from my tablet shows me logged in with a pptp ip so I know that I'm connected but splashtop still refuses to connect.)
Hope someone can figure this out soon... I've tried the experimental locator thing using my gmail account but I'm not sure if it does anything.

geovision

does anyone out here have a geovision camera card? i know it's a long shot,but thought i'd ask. there is an android app for it called gvaview, and for the life of me, i cannot get it to connect on my g2x. i also had issues trying it on a mytouch 4g. i know i have the proper ports open. i can connect from another pc with no issues. i can connect using ipcam viewer from the market as well. i'm beginning to think it's got something to do with my fios router blocking it although the proper ports are open. before i had roadrunner and a linksys router and i could connect from my own lan. now i get loopback issues with the fios router from within my lan. i also know the app itself is buggy according to market reviews. just wondering if anyone out here has it working on the g2x. or any phone for that matter. thanks in advance.

[Q] macbook with phone Ad-Hoc connection!

I am on stock ICS and in order to use an app called TouchOSC on my atrix 2 to control a DJ'ing software on my macbook pro i need to wirelessly tether my phone to my mac. So for this I created an Ad hoc network on my macbook and tried connecting my phone to it. i couldnt get that to work since my phone refuses to connect to the ad hoc network everytime. however i am able to set everything up perfectly when i am using a router to connect both my Macbook and the phone. But i cant carry the router everywhere so i need an On the go solution so for that its important to get the adhoc connection working.
any solutions?
PS: i have heard i can get it to work after rooting, but the success rate is really low. what can I do?

Anyone?

I will be honest, I have several macs at home, and I have never been able to get the a2 to work with ad hock wifi, but blue tooth ad hock networking seems to work ok for me. I can both share the internet connection on my macbooks, and I can even ssh to and from the macbook pros to the phone and back.
Not sure about the apps you are using, nor what they use exactly, but if it is just IP or http or similar the blue tooth connection should work.

I believe ICS blocked ad hoc connections, I read somewhere u can modify WPA supplicant, but I didn't look into it too far...
PS doesn't work on win or Linux either

Yeah it does... I have used both linux and mac os, but have not tried windows. Bluetooth tethering as I mentioned works well, and I did not have to change anything to make it work. Now technically you are correct that wifi tether does not work well with ICS, but, as I mentioned I have been using bluetooth without issues, and since most macs have bluetooth out of the box, it was one of those things to try out. My linux home box also has a bluetooth receiver on the MB, and I have tested it there as well. It was sort of trial and error to get it all setup right, and I do not remember what exactly I did, but I have been using it without issue for months now.
P.S. I am still on leak one, so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. I have found several things that do not work on the OTA still seem to work with leak 1, and why I have not updated to the OTA, and I never will.
