CheapCast - How to connect your Phone to a Tablet - Android General

Hello all
For all of you wondering how to get CheapCast to work, I made a video on how to connect your Phone to your Tablet.
Very simple process.
1. Download Cheapcast from Play Store on both devices.
2. Set both device names for the devices.
3. Start service on both devices.
4. Connect Cheapcast on phone to your tablet device name.
5. Enjoy
If someone can be so kind as to put my link in a comment below
Just search: " Cheapcast - Control your Tablet with your Phone "
Thank You

You only need to start the service on the tablet if you're using it to play videos.. You only need the service on one device not two.

We really don't need a thread just to explain what CheapCast does, when there is an official CheapCast thread on here...

Samsung Dive , i tried it before , not bad , really can locate your phone if your phone in online mode
Some people just shouldn't own phones.
If you haven't setup an app like Samsung Drive or Seek Droid there is no way to locate it, unless you have friends who work for for your service provider or law enforcement.
There is an app called Plan B. You install it after youve lost your phone. you push it on your phone by logging in on google market. It really works. just remember to hurry while your battery is still good.

Using your computer, log in to the market. The new link for market is google play is play.google.com. Use your gmail info to log in. Search for the app "plan B". Click install. If you have more than one device registered it will ask which device to install/push the app to. Tell it to install on your lost phone.
It will download and it is supposed to send a location to your gmail account.
LOL. It must be a trap provided by Best Buy. Look at this from the first email from Plan B.
Holy Crap!!!! It worked.
It located my phone to within two meters. I was just testing it because my phone is in the living room and sitting on my coffee table. Plan B sent me a google map with a dot on my house!!! Then there was a link to click and it pulled up google streets and showed me a picture of my house!!!!
Good to know about this app!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, like greeky510 suggested above, try Lookout's Plan B.
Just click install on the webpage from your computer, and the app should be sent to your phone and activate itself. Then you should be able to track it.
i think you buy one new
Go to Police Station and told them about your lost phone and ask them to write a F.I.R. they will track your through IMEI number whenever a SIM will inserted in the phone. You will absolutely get your phone back.

Cant open learning hub

Hi
I cant start the lwarning hub , when i open the app only the topbar is showing and after seconds it shutdown
Sent from my GT-N8000 using XDA Premium HD app
If you're rooted this could be the reason...
Since I live in australia I've never been able to open the learning hub as "your country isn't supported" but I once got a message saying that due to piracy concerns the hub was going to close....
I have actually solved this problem. I use learning hub on my n8000 now.
1) create a new samsung id and use the uk for your country.
2) on kies go to regedit then find the folder for your kies( Skip this step if your keys has the samsung app store already
Path for this is Computer>HKEY_CURRENT_USER> Software> samsung> Kies2.0> on the left side click on region then enter IN
3) save
4) open kies and log in with your new samsung id from UK
5) Install learning hub
6) Done! you now have learning hub, download the books. And they even have a promotion to get some free stuff
Hope I was able to help I also had this problem before and I had to think it through because of some info I found
You said "create a new Samsung id using UK as my country".
But I don't find an option to choose country.
I'm trying both from the web and Galaxy note 8.
I doubt since the post is 1 year old,Samsung has changed their policy during this time.
UPDATE:
I got UK account from here
www . samsung,. com / uk / register /
(Pls correct the link as I don't have rights to submit links as a new user)
and Learning Hub runs OK
But I still don't understand why you told to edit registry keys of Kies.
Would you like to explain?
Thanks

Name of the device on Google Play

Hello, is there a way I can make a name for my device so that when downloading apps on the Google Play Store, I can recognize it quicker. For instance, I own a Chinese tablet and when I try to download some apps on Google Play, it displays all the device that I have. However, when comes to the tablet, it will only show the model name of the tablet and the name of the manufacturer remains unknown. For example, Unknown Core4. Therefore, I would like to know that if there is a way that I could make a name for the device so that it will display on Google Play and other Google Service. Thanks.

Hi,
If you go to the google play store on a desktop select the gear button on the right. (just under your username). Select Devices.
You will be diverted to a seperate browsertab with a google maps interface. There you will be able to find your devices (if they have GPS) and also rename them.
Good luck

Amazon Alexa on Samsung Gear/Galaxy Watch (Alexa Gear) - issues/crashes

hi,
I am the author of Alexa Gear app for Samsung Gear/Galaxy watches.
The main thread (also used as a beta thread) is at :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/themes/amazon-alexa-samsung-gear-galaxy-watch-t3854747
Recently, there were many crash reports and feedback with issues, reported through app store comments and via direct email.
Unfortunately, with my test devices, and friends' devices , I can not observe the crash issues. For me and my friends it works with no issues at all.
I tried reaching some of the users (who report crashes), also supplying them a "debug" version. But none of them has returned to me.
There are 3 possibilities;
1. people are not willing to cooperate and work on the issue to fix it. (either because they don't have time or they are afraid to install a debug version)
2. people do not care to fix the issue
3. there's really no problem at all
I really want to help and fix the problems if there's really a problem. So I need also help from users.
That's why I want to use this thread for communication of issues, problems and mainly crashes. I may need a beta group to test a debug version.
Please supply me information about crashes in forms of:
- screenshots
- recorded video showing both phone and watch display at the time of crash
- logcat if available
- let me know which version of the phone app you are using
- let me know which version of the watch app you are using
- let me know if you have official Amazon Alexa app installed on your phone
- let me know if you are logged in to your Amazon.com account from Amazon Alexa app installed on your phone
- let me know if you have official Amazon Shopping app installed on your phone
- let me know if you are logged in to your Amazon.com account from Amazon Shopping app installed on your phone
Please keep in mind , for proper first time installation and use of the app:
1. first install phone application if possible (if not , please install phone app when watch app is fully closed)
2. make sure you are logged in to your amazon account through the phone app and the login button is gone
3. only after step 2 , run your watch app
4. make sure your watch is connected to your phone through bluetooth
5. make sure your watch app is connected to your phone app (both apps should show "Alexa Connected" in the Alexa logo on their displays)
6. only after step 5 start voice recording on your watch and send an Alexa command
7. if your language setting (phone app) does not work , please fresh install both apps and try with default language setting (en-US)
8. try logging in to https://alexa.amazon.com/spa/index.html and make timezone & location settings for your new Alexa device (it should show up as AlexaGear after you register through phone app)
Please , when reporting a crash, check the above steps list and tell me at what point you have the crash.
I will also add a poll to this thread to understand the rate of users with crashes. Please help me and submit the poll even if you don't have a crash.
Thanks.
HI.. Thanks for building the app but the app doesn't work. It listens the command but it doesn't transmit to phone/Alexa.
Thanks again
