question about 3g capability on a700 device - Acer Iconia A700 and A510

So, I know a700 natively does not support 3g, however since I can connect any USB device to it, is it possible to have 3G/4G mobile broadband dongles working or is it a limitation of ICS drivers library?
EDIT: sorry, I thought I was posting it in Q/A section. If possible, would like to ask moderators to move. Thanks

Nokia n95 2gb version Tethering

Hopefully I am posting in the right thread.
I have an Andriod and the USB Tethering works like a charm. I even used an application so I don't use the USB in-case I forget and/or my friend wants to use the internet and works like a charm.
However, what if we have a Nokia n95 2gb version and it isn't a droid. How do I get tethering on this phone? Is there an application or is there a software I must install to my computer and hook it up to my laptop/desktop to access the internet.
I have unlimited data-plan so I don't have to worry about my bill going higher than my income a month.
I have searched and all the tethering is pointing at the droids.
Just notice this is in the wrong section. ^^... Too much forum...I got confused with the "General" part. Thinking I can discuss anything in here.
Moved to global Q&A by request from OP
Thank you for moving the thread.
Can anyone help me with this situation?

[Q] Huawei E220 USB 3G Dongle

I have a Huawei E220 USB 3G dongle that I'd love to use with my Viewsonic G Tablet running CyanogenMod 6.1.0-beta4 and kernel version 2.6.32.9-00000-10.8.2-dirty. I have searched the Viewsonic G Tablet forums, found some information but am not sure whether someone has been successful with the modem and software combination above.
Unfortunately I am not able to post a reply in the developer forum since I have yet to post 10 threads...
hga89,
No one else is responding, so I'll throw this in. I watch threads like this because I
would like to do what you are talking about .
But I have not read of anyone here saying they made it work. There used to be a
thread -- in Developer Forum I think -- where someone was talking about it and it
said "ON HOLD" or some such on the heading.
lBottom line is I don't know, but I haven't heard of anyone with success since November.
Rev
If a developer is interested in collaborating on getting the Huawei E220 USB 3G dongle up and running under CyanogenMod, I'd like to help out.

Do a search for "Huawei" in this forum, and look for a thread started by Russian Beast. S/he claims to have found a solution.

[Q] Change what phone thinks a bluetooth device is?

I picked up a scosche bluetooth car kit (motormouth BTAXM) at Walmart as it was on sale for 12.99. I was planning on using it to stream audio, but the stupid company is tricky and make two models. One is just for phone calls and one can do a2dp.
I have a theory that the devices are actually exactly the same but just register themselves as different. One being a hands free headset and an a2dp device.
I was wondering if it was possible to tell the phone that it is a different device (one that supports a2dp) and see if it works. Anyone know of an app or something that can do this? Running CM9 if that helps. Thanks in advance.
I doubt that will work. If your theory is right and it is the same device (I'd say that's not likely, though) you'd need to get the a2dp capable firmware for the device and flash it on there. Simply telling your phone the BT device is a2dp capable wont make it simply accept a2dp streams.

[Q] Android Device as Miracast Reciever

Hi there!
I have a question about Miracast compatibility:
As far as I know Miracast Streaming is software related. So majority of 4.2.2+ phones can stream the display. I wonder if it is possible that all the devices act as recievers too?
What I mean is.. if you have an Android TV Box, can you make it work as Miracast reciever so I could stream my android phone to that Android TV Box?
I am looking at some Android Boxes HERE and I see that only THIS ONE "officialy" supports Miracast (as reciever). Is it really the only one with Miracast capability?
Thank you for your time in advance!
I've searched the forum for an answer with no luck. I posted it in Android Q&A with no luck. Maybe I'll have some luck over here since our Nexus 5 supports Miracast.
Already posted my question HERE.
anyone?

I have a Vizio Co-Star (Coaster?) and it will not support Miracast at all.
Android TV boxes run older versions of Android on hardware that requires separate development from other Android devices. There is little or no Dev support for any of them and Google seems to have pretty much abandoned them. There was a rumor that Google TV boxes would get the Chromecast abilities via software update, but that hasn't happened.
I'd look into those cheap Android HDMI dongles if I were you, instead of Google TV devices.
