[Q] open .exe flash on android? - General Questions and Answers

Hi!. It turns out that there is a computer program that would be nice to have on my tablet and would be useful for my university classes. The "program" is really an .exe file and there is also a folder called "data" and inside that folder there are many many .swf files. I CAN open the swf files separatly but I can't open the exe (what the exe does is ... well, basicly organising all the swf's with an interface, the text, menus and stuff ). Is there any way in which I can get that program to run on a Android tablet?.
Edit: I managed to convert the main exe file to swf, now I gotta see if there is some swf player on android (pretty sure there is )

.EXE files couldn't run on Android because EXE is Windows executable and won't work on Linux or Android.
About swf player you can try this: SWF Player

It worked. I could convert the main exe to swf and it works on android. What would be REALLY cool would be to convert the main swf + the data folder (which contains the swf's that the program uses) to an apk file. I don't know if that's possible

not quite running it on the tablet
OK here is a solution but not an answer, you can run programs like splash top to view and controll your PC wirelessly over wifi from you tablet. Its like $20 for a year so you don't actually run the program on your tablet but you can run it on your computer on your tablet from anywhere in the world.

Standalone Flash 6 player found from .....

Macromedia themself. And distributed by Microsoft. Here is the story.
Hi,
I got this info from the Modaco board an decided to dig
into it (tweak it a bit)
http://www.modaco.com/Beta-Macromedia-Flash-pla-t118617.html
This exe file is directly from a download at microsoft.com
and is a true Macromedia stand alone flash (.swf) player
for Windows mobile 2003 and higher (ARM)
SmartPhone
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/tutorials-dl_sp.mspx
PPC
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/tutorials-dl_ppc.mspx
PPC Phone Edition
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/tutorials-dl_ppcpe.mspx
But the players are basically the same (tutorial.exe = a projector)
In the pc world this player is known as saFlashPlayer.exe.
The version of this player is Macromedia Flash Player 6.0 r79
You can also create a standalone EXE file (projector) from a swf file.
Copy the file (or the upxed one) to any folder (or in Storage)
and run it once. It will automaticaly create the registry
entries for you to play .swf file from explorer (or total commander etc)
Perhaps a 7 version will be found as well somewhere....
Have fun,
Cheers
ps: I included the HPC version as well
Seems to Work fine on Hermes WM6.
But has this some command line options, so i can start a projector in fullscreen mode when i launch ?
Other way to start a swf in fullscreen ?
Thanks
Thanks, thanks, thanks...
I searched a lot of days for some realy working standalone player. I messed up with some activeXes, not working fp7_ppc_en.cab flashLite 2.1 3.1 junky....
and this is exactly what I need. exceent.
Single exe file, just copy it and go !
(But myabe is a little bit outdated... it is version 6.0) But it doesnt matter, it is working with a charm.
thanks.

Samsung Blackjack MMF and apps to Tornado?

I just picked up a Samsung Blackjack i607 to play with. I like it a lot, but I plan to stick to the T-Mobile SDA for awhile because it has WiFi and I can't give that up.
i607 uses WM5, v5.1.342 while my SDA uses v5.1.70.
I really like how the i607 can play MMF ringtones. I have a big collection of them and would like to use them on my SDA. It can play them with Windows Media Player Mobile 10 so there must be a CODEC involved. Is there any way to extract the MMF CODEC and install it into my SDA? I also like the WMP skin that came with the i607. Can that be extracted and used on my SDA as well? I found a .skn file in the Windows Media Player folder (in Program Files I think), but it was a tiny 21-byte file and didn't add the skin to my SDA. I guess the real files for the skin are probably in the Windows folder.
I can't access the Windows folder via USB, and I can't beam most files in the Windows folder either. What do I need to do to unlock those folders to be visible on the PC or able to be beamed? Is it part of "ext ROM"? The Blackjack actually has many nice apps, can I extract the CAB files for those apps from the ext ROM or wherever they reside?

gmote may work for you, in the market
and you install the server portion on your pc, you connect via lan/wifi to your home pc. you can browse through your drives/folders like you would in astro and when you click on a movie file it will play it on your pc monitor, the video player is built into gmoteserver (pc side)
you can also install vnc server on your pc and then install vnc on android (market vnc)
and control it just like you would a normal vnc session.
i myself am looking for a file browser for android that will let me browse network shares and let me copy files to my sdcard

as i said in my first post gmote dose this but when you open a .avi file it opens it in its own weird player and dont run the codec from vlc so the video isnt as clear (is there a fix for that)... but yer i want something just like that... but opens the files in vlc...
im using a remote desktop atm (VNC) without much enjoyment.. its ok i guess just would like a simple app to all drives and pick a file to play full screen on my computer to the look of astro

sorry i must not have read your OP sorry about that.
there is another app gremote much more polished version but its a paid app (market app free but pc software is costs)
besides a vnc type app, i dont know of any app for the pc that will let you remotely launch files too. so if its not there for the pc, its probably not there for the android.
im going to search google for remotely executing files that may lead us to an app that may be made for the android
only other thing i can think of is continue using vnc, switch to media player home cinema as it pauses/play on mouse click. setup a play list on the pc, then use your phone to vnc in to play/pause/volume up/down.
next to that cordless mouse and keyboard =)
So you are looking for a Media Remote Control application.

No no no. What you want is estrongs file explorer. Browse network shares via
Samba (PC networking) or ftp. Over wifi for lan shares or 3G with ftp.
You can ditch Astro after that find.
If you need to do it the other way around; browse the phone's file system with a pc or other device, use swiftp which is an ftp server.

astro just came out with SMB support, you can browse network files through that now too

Here's how to playback Tunein Pro recordings on your PC

I have a Droid Bionic but I'm sure this will apply to many devices
I uploaded a bunch of Tunein Pro recordings from my phone to my PC using AndSMB but I couldn't play them back. The files have no file extension and are labeled as a group of numbers (ex. 20120804-163017). After searching quite a bit most people were saying to simply rename the files by adding the ".mp3" extension which didn't work for me. I had a feeling that the problem is that Tunein is adding its own meta data to the file making other audio players not recognize it.
In order to get these files to play on my PC I downloaded a free program called MP3 Repair Tool v1.5 from Dr. Tag. You can get it here:
Just google "dr tag mp3 repair tool" and it will probably be the first link.
What you need to do is rename the file to end in ".mp3" and navigate to the folder within the repair tool. Select the file, check "Remove" and select to remove anywhere from 75 - 100 frames from the beginning of the file. You can play around with other values but this range worked for my files. It will create a "repaired" file and it should play.
Have fun! I hope this proves useful to anyone else.
Wish I could do that right on the device...

Play locally stored Flash files on Surface.

I was trying to find a way to open .swf files which are locally saved.
My primary thought was using an html file in which I would link the desired .swf file.
When trying to open the html file via IE10 the file was blocked from IE and didn't load.
I then added the local drive path (C:\) as an exception to IE's whitelist with the method shown in this thread but again Flash didn't load.
After some more unsuccessful tests I finally ended up playing the .swf file when I opened the html file using Word 2013!
The file had its full functionality with no lag or other problems.
Only drawbacks found in this method was that Flash file didn't extend to fit the whole screen and that you are dependent on Word to play the file.
I know that it's not a proper method on playing .swf's, but it's an indication that Flash plugin could be enabled for local files.
So, do you have any other suggestions on playing locally saved Flash files or adding an exception on IE's whitelist for local path?
