Qik ( pronounced Quick) enables you to share moments of your life with your friends, family and the world - directly from your cell phone. They dont have wide support for Windowes Mobile yet, but there are some supported models. I have signed up for the product using the phone number , but was told they will contact me when my phone is supported. but the product looks promising
With Qik you can stream engaging video live from your phone to the world or use your phone like a camcorder to capture entertaining, interesting and special moments. The streams can be made private or public for the world to see.

Great app idea. I can't wait to try this out later.
+1, Will give it A whirl.
Cheers.
Nice! Finally airplay for android!
Next up, facetime!
Just tested it and I have to say, it fits the bill perfectly. I did notice the music quality was on the low-end, maybe have th ability to switch between different streaming qualities?
Also I think you mean AppleAirPort express, not extreme. The extreme is the actual, dual-band router, where the express is the wi-fi extender with audio out.
Nonetheless, consider me hooked, any ideas on pricing yet?

Audio quality should be as good as the source, as AirPlay sends a lossless stream. What happens for example if you compare the same track played locally on your device vs streamed by AirPlay (with comparable volume) ?
On my Samsung SGS , quality is as good as it gets.
If you hear a difference, can you describe it ?

You're right. If a mod is willing to update the subject of the topic....

Free app with possibly airpush ads in the future.
Very impressed, What a great start! Will be supporting you for sure. Thanks and keep it up.
What about adding video support (aka making it a full airplay client) as you can now stream video from macs and do the reverse (with some hackery... It is xda dev afterall...!)
This looks quite interesting, looking forward to giving it a whirl...
awesome app !
hey there.. the app sounds great.. but i have no idea how to set it up.. ive never used airplay or had an iphone (not more than a month atleast) so could you please tell me what im supposed to do in itunes?
Just wondering how this thing works. I thought you needed some BridgeCo chip on the device to support airplay. Whatever, this is an awesome app.
so with this i can't stream music from my phone to a AirPort Express or have i got it all wrong?
im looking for the best way to wireless stream music from my phone to a couple of speakers thats why im asking

Thats what im looking for, too. Would pay like 5-10€ for an app that makes streaming to airport possible.
I've added a link to a youtube video in first post that shows app appearing in itunes for streaming to the phone.
@Hampa_D: the app does the opposite. To stream audio from your phone to Airplay devices you can use Twonky Mobile.
Since Twonky Mobile is an Airplay client, it will see and stream audio to AirBubble as well.
Great!!!
I will give it a try at home. Hook my mobile to the amp and stream music from my Itunes Lib
TOP!

thanks its in the right direction but i want to be able to stream spotify from my phone but that seems to be a little more difficult if i don't use bluetooth.
Cant enable wifi on htc desire with cm 7

Great App!
I've got a question: Could you make an app to stream Music FROM my Android Smartphone TO a Airport Express (and the connected speakers)?
(I've got so much music on my smartphone and it would be so nice to lay on the couch and hear music from my smartphone over my airport express and be able to switch to the next song or make it louder etc.)

More info please. The app require a WiFi connection and if not connected will ask to enable WiFi on startup. Is that failing ?

We have moved to Android and IOS devices now namely DroidX and iPad leaving behind our HTC Touch and Diamond.
We don't want to junk or even sell our previous devices since they have sentimental values. I was thinking to put them to use at lease. Is there any software I can install to turn those two device into a security cam?
They are both wifi capable, WM5 and WM6 operating system. I have used them as a BT webcam before, now I am looking a way that I can use them as a Wifi webcam that can stream video over the internet to my own server/hosting or may use Ustream or any other streaming service alike with a host PC.
If can record a video to the server will be much better so I can review it later. It will be perfect if there is a motion detection that could save me space and time in reviewing the videos.
Can this be done?
It's been a while since I post here, I will really appreciate if someone could help me with this.
Yes you can
Just download IP Webcam from the Google Play Market. It does exactly what you want. It runs an HTTP server so you can connect to it in a variety of ways, as listed on the main page in the browser, once you connect.
Good Play is for Android!!! He has a WM6

Hey XDA,
I wrote this TV companion application a few years ago. It needed a major refactor and I finally got around to it. It's a free app with limited ads. The rating is terrible right now as it has been broken for a few months. I hope the new updates encourage more positive reviews.
The application works for different use cases: Use it with your big box TV or watch live TV in the app
Let me go over some of the features in more detail:
-A live map and compass guide to the best direction to point your TV antenna based on your location.
All TV station information: Channel Name, Channel Number, Channel Frequency, and more.
Station broadcast overlay: Allows you to see exactly where the station can reach.
Built in TV Remote (for devices with a built in IR Blaster).
Watch live local News streams from any city in the USA.(FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC, CW)
Watch nearly any live stream: Live Cable TV, Live OTA Broadcast TV, Live Sports. (Even works with major cable providers like Comcast and AT&T)
The last 2 are what make the application unique. TV Towers uses a custom video player which makes it all possible. It's the secrete sauce to what makes the app special. You can literally use the app to watch live ESPN sports broadcasts using picture in picture mode while you browse XDA The app really is powerful.
That being said, there are a ton of different manufacturers for Android with multiple different form factors and OS flavors. I only have 2 devices and a basic emulator... If you spot a bug or something that does not look right please leave a comment here so we can collaborate on how to correct it. I love writing code and solving problems. If you have an idea or something you would like to see in the application then please let me know!
I put a lot of hard work into this app. If you like it please consider leaving a review. If you don't like it.. Please let me know why so I can make it better for you.
