[Q] Mirror Android Stick to PC - Android Stick & Console Computers General

Hello, I use the justop k10a (4.2.2) on my TV and want to mirror the display to my PC so I can use it even without the TV on.
I read the stick supports Miracast and has a WifiDisplay app installed (which searches something when I run it, maybe for a pc client?),
also my pc supports Miracast (Windows 8.1 Pro).
How can I do this?

Control your android by using desktop keyboard and mouse.

Exist software for desktop (if possible for linux, use debian) that once connect the android to the PC by USB you can emulate the entire operating system live? And then use the phone from the PC without taking it in their hands??
For my old omnia, i used this for windows mobile:

also Cyanogenmod 6 includes bluetooth HID support, so you can use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the phone.

Android Stick in replacement for Mac mini...

Hi guys,
Maybe it's weird but do you think i can use an Android Stick in replacement for the Mac Mini?
Currently, the Mac mini is connected directly to Sony Bravia HDTV via HDMI and acting as HTPC.
And the only thing that we are doing mostly on the current connection is streaming videos from net Browsers (Chrome or Firefox).
We seldom use the XBMC or Plex apps on the mac mini since the TV Shows and Movies that we would like to watch are cannot
be found.
I've read a lot of items regarding Android Stick and based from them I've learned that most of the things that I can do on an android
phone can also be done to the Android Stick. (especially installing apps, playing games, etc.)
But I don't remember anyone mentioning about the Browser apps on the Android Stick.
Are they performing good? Can they play all videos including Flash videos?
Can I browse the internet without any problem just like in an Android phone?
Or should I consider other devices instead of Android Stick?

[Q] Setting up my old pc to screen mirror on sony 3d tv

We just purchased a sony 3d tv.
It is amazing and all but i was surprised that there's no dvi port so i can plug my old pc in it and use xbmc for hom streaming.
Today i saw there's a screen mirroring function.
I was wondering how i can use it to stream from pc to the tv by mirroring the screen.
But i read that it's only for sony phones and tablets.
I directly thought about android x86 on pc. But can someone tell me how i can make it show up as a sony device?
like maybe mess with the built to make it look like a sony tablet for example.
Thx in advance!

Is there a phone app to control my Android HDMI mini PC

Hi all,
As the title says, I'm after one of the following:
1. the ability to emulate a Android TV/Google TV/Chromecast receiver on my android PC (I've seen this ability on other android mini PCs)
2. an app which I can use to control my Android PC in an intuitive way.
I would prefer 1 as this will allow me to use existing apps out there (Android Remote Control, Google TV) which are intuitive and well made. I've see that this is possible on other Android Mini PCs (via turning on an option in the settings menu)
I'm not interested in those bluetooth/wlan mouse/keyboard apps. I'm more after something that allows swiping, has buttons such as home etc. I'm currently using a bluetooth keyboard/mouse which works well. But I'm after something that'll utilise my phone instead. I have an Android and iPhone.
I found some apps however they have the following limitations:
[Android] Android Remote Control: Requires an Android TV
[iOS] Google TV: Requires a Google TV device
The device I have is the following: Amazon: JUSTOP K10A Quad Core Android 4.4 Kitkat TV Box Mini PC With WIFI Bluetooth RK3188 1.6Ghz x4 CPU 2GB Ram 8GB NAND Network Streamer
I can see there's an app called DroidMote available. Is that the best alternative?
Thanks in advance
I use droidmote for my mini droids, Google playstore is your friend, am well pleased with it! Uses Wi-Fi to connect to your droid so plenty stable and fast

Thanks mate. I got droidmote last night but haven't had a chance to use it. Because I have a very old android which I don't use so I would prefer to know if there's a similar app for iPhone
Not a phone app but if your device is rooted, you can install an app called webkey that lets you remote control it from another computer's Web browser. It will display the entire desktop and let you control it using your mouse and keyboard.

Controlling T-Mobile TVision HUB v2 from Linux laptop

I just purchased the above device planning to use it to replace my Raspberry Pi Zero W in my media system. I have been controlling the pi via SSH from my laptop and have an sftp share to it for file transfers from my laptop. I mostly made use of vlc on the pi this way, which worked quite well.
Obviously I will usually be using the remote with the device when I want to select and view video content. But when I am working with music and internet radio it is more convenient to do so from my laptop where I have an actual keyboard.
Obviously the TVision environment differs from the Raspbian running on the pi, so I doubt that I can take the same approach with it. I am working now to take advantage of the fact that it is a Chromecast device, which allows me to manage internet radio from my laptop via stream2chromecast. What I still need is a way to load media onto the device from my laptop, preferably via a share of some sort, and to be able to initiate or change playback there from the laptop.
I have installed vlc on the device, but from what I can tell there is no support in this version for using one of its remote control interfaces included. Of course this is the android version of vlc, so even if I can install and use an SSH connection to the device I don't know how to interact with it from the terminal window.
Has anyone worked with this device and found a way to do what I want to with it? Has anyone taken a similar approach with another Google TV device that should work here?
Dave
