Wake up Android! - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
due to thousands of post according to Wake up my PC I wasn´t able to find a possibly already existing posting to what I need.
I bought a Lenovo n308 Android Device and need to wake this up / start it remote because it shall be integrated in the kitchens´ wall .
Is there any chance / possibility to do a wake on lan (for example) on this device from my pc or another phone?
If my question is not clear enough let me know and I´ll try to explan it better
Thanks in advance
greets
Heba
BTW:
As this http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/wake-device-t2853187 was posted in the wrong section it can be deleted:

I've read somewhere that you can, but it's about your computer's LAN card, it needs to be compatible.
And if u need an app able to do that, Splashtop can help you and works well.

ok thanks - so i can boot my android device using the splashtop?

SatMap Active 10

Hi all,
I got one of these GPS units: http://www.satmap.com/ - it is obviously a Windows powered device so I was wondering if there was any interest in playng with it on this forum? I don't think we are gonna start hacking the firmware on it but I cann see things like changing boot screeens etc as useful.
Anyone else got one?

I've got one. I don't intend to play around with it. I'm getting a garmin oregon 400t.
It is a stripped out Win CE device, only the basic parts needed to run the active10 application are installed, it is a very good device for Topo mapping, but I really don't see much point in hacking it - if it goes wrong you will have a very costly new addition to the doorstop devices in your house - Mike

[Q] [REQ] FreeRapid Downloader Android Companion!

Hello guys, was wondering if anyone already came u with a simple app I'd really like to sport.
As you may know, the (PC) program in the title handles downloads from most file uploading services (rapidshare, megaupload, fileshare, even youtube...), but from time to time it asks for a verification (that is "Write what you read in the box"): obviously, it won't download anything until I input the code. Now, is there any way to be informed on my Desire about this request (so I can VNC/Web TeamViewer to the computer and do that), maybe even have the code sent to the Desire and being able to reply and have the code input in the computer. This way, ther would be no dead download times with ease! Anybody willing to put something together? Or is there something similar already? May I ask FRD developers first?

USB Tethering - the other way round: possible?

Hello guys,
i know, it sounds a bit strange, but is it possible to use the internet access from a PC via USB-connection on an android smartphone? Didn't found anything about that. Thanks in advance for all helpful answers.
Greetz,
Dosentod
this is often called reverse-tethering...
...you can search about this.
Some devices have it natively.
Yeah there is a way,here you go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345
Thanks alot!:good:
On sense roms its called Internet-passthrough

[Q] Using Bluetooth in Recovery

Hey all,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to be posting my question so if the mods could move me accordingly that would be great. Anyways, my question is does anybody know if there is a way to enable bluetooth devices while in recovery? I'm developing for the Xiaomi MiBox Mini and there are 0 usb ports so not only can I not connect a USB controller like a keyboard or mouse, but I cannot connect to a PC either. If anyone has any experience with this all help is appreciated.

The recovery would have to support bluetooth and have it auto enabled.
There is very little about your device on XDA.
I will request that this thread be moved to Android Stick Computers, where there are similar devices.

There is very little about it anywhere, but I feel that with a bit of development there could be a lot of potential with this little cube. I feel that the android stick forum would also be more appropriate. Also in regards to your first comment, is there anyway I could enable bluetooth on the stock recovery? I've managed to extract it but I'm unfamiliar with making individual modifications to it (eg. turning on services) or will I need to compile a third party recovery for my device such as TWRP to accomplish this. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

[Completed] Looking for the best way to transfer files from/to PC via Wi-Fi

Hello there.
Xperia M4 Aqua user here. My USB connection with PC is broken and im looking for alternative. ES File Explorer had a feature that lets you connect with your PC via Wi-Fi on a local FTP server (still not perfect, as it didnt let you preview media on FTP), but im done with ES since there is more junk than I can tolerate and after recent "sensitive notifications" in question, and im really only interested in a Wi-Fi connection. Note that im aware of PC Companion being able to connect via Wi-Fi, but it requires USB connection to setup it so its not an option for me anymore. I want to be able to transfer files from and to my PC, using phone.

Hello,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Try file sharing apps like Shareit.It has a desktop client too.

Hey, thanks for the info. I just checked SHAREit (is this the one?) and i dont like it already. Connection with PC requires version 3.0 or above and they dont even link to it on their official website; maybe thats just the case for Windows 7 app though, i didnt check. Also, just like ES, it has way too many things i simply dont need. And there are reports of various problems with the app, such as slow transfers and other, shady things. So id rather skip that one, unless theres no better alternative. You said I should try other apps like this, any specific ones you could recommend? I need names because i bet theres loads of junk in app store and I dont really want to install random things, hence asking on XDA for recommendations.
