So I finally got a Nexus 7 and first thing I wanted to test was the WiFi Direct sharing with my Galaxy Nexus. I was kinda disappointed when I saw that neither the stock Gallery app nor any of my installed file managers offered a WiFi Direct sharing option.
So I took a look at the APIs and made my own WiFi Direct sharing app (after that, I saw that a similiar app is already available here on XDA).
I got it working between my Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4 and the Nexus 7 and I guess it should also work on most other devices (unfortunately, WiFi Direct is really broken on some WiFi drivers).
You can get it from the PlayStore here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.wifidirect
The latest version is attached to this post
Awesome always wanted this so sad don't have another android device but will try this on my Nexus S

only if that computer runs Android and supports wifi direct ^^
How's the testing going for this? I'm shocked more ROM developers don't try to bake this functionality into their releases. My SGSIILTE Skyrocket had Wi-Fi direct baked into the stock Samsung OS, but as soon as you flash to CM10 or something else you lose that function completely and it's no longer in your wireless settings.
I installed your app and will test with my wife's SGSIII tonight.

Thank you so much!!
I own the Nexus 4 and in the playstore I cant download your app (not available in your country -> Germany). Thanks for sharing this, great for exchanging music and videos when hanging out with friends
Not to necro this thread, but we are building an app that does exactly just that. The app is called Drop, and it is a simple, fast, and secure way to share files with people/devices in proximity over WiFi Direct. We are going into a limited Private Beta soon, so if you're up for the challenge, (and running Jelly Bean) then sign up at www.get-drop.com. Seats are limited, and we have a rolling enrollment, so check it out.
Hey,
Why did u take it from the play store.
I really like it. This is what I was looking for. A very simple method to share. No fancy UI or anything. Less then 100KB. Perfect!
Thank you!
I hope u keep maintaining it...:good:
EDIT:
Unfortunately nothing happens from N5 -> N4. I see the toast "sending xyz"... and that's it

with the 720p recording on this phone, im thinking it would make a kick ass webcam...is that even a possibility though?
Root your phone, get DroidVNC, forward your ports correctly on your router.
Start droidVNC (you gotta be on wifi), start your camera app.
Now login to your ip with the port, and enter the pin code in droidvnc setting, and bam, you see your phone's camera. heck u can even control your android now.

Well, I'm sure tegra2 devices won't be too far behind. All of the devices that are supported have similar processors. The tegra2 is much better, but different. I'm sure netflix is just making sure that there is a quality user experience before releasing it.

It plays on the TF101? Strange. It told me it's not compatible with my device... Maybe it's the firewall at work that keeps messing it up? But others also reported it's only a black screen. Why the differences? I'm rooted and running PRIME! 1.2

The way I understand is this is a hardware issue. When they initially announced it for Android, they claimed to only be working with Qualcomm in order to prevent piracy of content. I haven't checked to see if they've expanded beyond that just yet though...so this could be entirely invalid and be a mere software thing
If this is the same app that was leaked off an LG phone a couple of monts ago, the problem is DRM. The app i looking for a DRM file that's not located on the device.
Is there anyone here who has managed their yahoo messenger voice and video calling plugin work on GT2 P5100? Is there any available fix to this issue at the moment? Any help would be greatly appreciated.... Thanks in advance!
I sideloaded it on my p3113, and the camera is sideways, but it does make calls and connect. You can see the other persons cam. I have had reports that audio cuts in and out.
Hope that helps.

tnx for sharing. I have had that issue before with my previous tab10.1 P7500. messenger works with video calling but image is sideways, but if you flip your cam the return it back using the front cam, your image will appear normal. ( i mean vertical, not sideways anymore). That is why I am really disappointed for replacing the old tab 10.1 with the new tab 2, even skype's video calling wont work. at least the OG tab video calling works. I just wish they could release a new plugin or fix soon for the video calling coz its making samsung's reputation really bad....

Yah, it looks like they released the device without testing for compatible apps for video and voice calling. even skype's video calling doesnt work either. they should start fixing these issues coz its already been months since the release of tab 2 and if this would take longer before it could be fixed, it could really give samsung a really bad impression to consumers. besides, they just won their case over apple, right?
salungat....can you tell me where you got the information from?
My customer has a custom app that uses the camera to take pictures and insert the pictures into a form for reporting purposes (home inspection app).
He is having all kinds of issues with the camera. Today, SAMSUNG support told him that, the "tablet was not designed to be used by an app that controls the camera".
This is complete BS in my opinion but I need more info to fire back at their support.
Thanks...

Hey guys,
recently I released a new app, called A Play!. In a nutshell, it's a multi-device multiplayer console. See for yourself ( #throughglass ):
I hope you guys like it. (Cannot post link to the market, but the package is: org.anddev.aplay )
(Disclaimer: The app, but not all games, are free!)

@astarman sorry I should make this clearer in the UI. There are two APKs, one for the server one for the controller. The reason for the two APK approach was so that you don't have to update the controller when the server changes and vice-versa. I'm more and more thinking this was a bad decision, since if even you guys are confused after reading that there are two packages and the instructions on the first start of the server app.
Server: org.anddev.aplay
Controller: org.anddev.aplay.controller
There is only one apk anymore, containing both the server and the controller.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.anddev.aplay.controller
link to the controller!
why couldnt you just post this in your title thread? clearer instructions would make it batter and more popular

Your device is supported, at least according to the Google Play Store (see attachment).
Making a pro version on the market for say 1.99 sounds better then buying each thing individually.

I thought about that. I wish Google Play IAB would have a feature where you could bundle a couple of SKUs together and sell them for a price. That way I could make a "buy all games for $0.99" or so.
The idea is awesome. Looking forward to try it. And why I didn't tested it yet, is the only weak part I see, you have to have a tablet as a platform/main screen. Would be nice to have screen multiplied on the phones and the controls overplayed. But maybe this is to different from the main idea and programming. So no real offence. Just in this form - it is really great.
Keep doing such great work

Hi guys,
I'm writing this post for a friend.
He just bought a N5 device but he needs the app "Teamviewer Quicksupport" in order to use the phone.
He's already got it on a Samsung GS3 with android 4.1.2 and it worked perfectly, but now on the Nexus5 with android 4.4 Kitkat it seems not to work.
I explain you the problem:
When he connects the phone to his laptop using the app Teamviewer Quicksupport, the client on windows shows a black screen.
The app doesn't crash and N5 doesn't freeze.
Is there someone who can help us? i think it's an incompatibility (communication) problem, due to the new version of Android.
We will be very grateful if someone could recompile this app or can suggest us how to fix it.
PS: The device is already rooted (with stock rom).
PS2: If i made some mistakes, I apologize to the moderators.
Thank you!!

[Edit] it works on my nexus 4 with AOKPK 4.3.1

I've yet to be able to use TeamViewer without a TouchWiz ROM, even on my S4.. if I flashed CM10 or something else, it wouldn't work. But if I went back to a TW ROM, it works.

In my experience team viewer doesn't work on any device that i've had with 4.3 or above. It would not display my note 3 screen stock or rooted. it worked on my s4 and about 4 other s4's on different networks. But I'm not surprised it doesn't work on kitkat.
I think teamviewer needs to update their software.
I've already written to the teamviewer support, but they didn't answered me
galaxy s4 with original 4.3 not working. i can only see a black screen, although it seems that keyboard input from the PC is working ok (entering text, moving through icons etc.)
i'm also interested in a resolution to this...
I have the same problem and I've messaged the developer to see if they can look into it. Are there any good alternatives to QuickSupport?
According to their page, QuickSupport only works on Samsung phones. Between this fact, and that even recent S4 owners cannot get it to work, seems that it was mainly for SGS3, which I can confirm does still work. Unless they update, I doubt it will work on any non-Samsung phone.

Hi,
as i said in a previous message, the app works on my LG Nexus 4, which is not Samsung.
This is a link to a page that shows the app's compatibility whith other devices/brands:

This weekend i'll have a test with my Nexus 4 (mounting Android 4.4 Kitkat) in order to see if the problem is caused by a newer SO.

The support has just sent me an e-mail:
Dear Sir,
Thank you for getting back to us.
We got some news from our developers that this is unfortunately a known problem in the current version. Our developers are already working on a solution and this will be fixed as soon as possible. We are really sorry about the inconvenience.
There is Webkey, which also works as remote access for Android devices. I got it working on Nexus 7 (2013) and Nexus 5 with KitKat, but only on the same WiFi network. Can't seem to get it to work on mobile or outside WiFi networks.
The developer also seems to be on hiatus or abandoned the app - no update in over a year.
Hopefully TeamViewer comes up with a fix for KitKat soon.

I just checked Nexus 5 and 6 with the latest Teamviewer Quick Support. There is still no screen-sharing or true remote control. I am running Pure Nexus 6.0.1.
I also checked both with the webkey app and I am pleased to say webkey works for remote control on both.
