[Completed] Mini HDMI on tablets as an in-port? - XDA Assist

I have a Nexus 10 that I would like to use as a third monitor (after discovering the joys of a dual monitor setup) but would rather not put up with the lag from wireless solutions.
So my question is, can the mini HDMI on my tablet be used as an in port or is it an out port only? If it can function as an in, is there any extra software, etc I would need to use or would it just be plug and play?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] [DEV] Dock communication protocol

Hi everyone,
I'm new on this forum, but as i'm really a new user, I can't post my question in the development section, so I do it here.
I've a project of an Android Application that require a speed data connection between the tablet and a own-built device (not built yet, but in project, and I try to get as much information as possible before starting).
That's why I thought ASUS EEEPad Transformer and its dock connection port for this.
My question has two parts. Is there any way to send informations from a own-built device to the Transformer throught the dock communication port and what does look like the protocol ?
Is it possible to buy as a spare part the Transformer dock connector (like the the one on the keyboard dock) ? Maybe at ASUS ?
If anyone have some information, thanks in advance for the reply.
Johnny
PS : Sorry if my english writing is bad, but it's not my first language.
of course there's a way...since the dock port does work...
the problem is it's not documented.
the TF will eventually have a USB Dongle (and the dock itself already has 2 USB ports). your best bet is probably via the USB interface. you'll probably need to write a driver for your custom-made device but that's probably your best option moving forward.
not sure what your device is, but if it you only need it for limited input...try to have it behave and identify itself as a joystick, translate your signals to various joystick signals, then have your app translate them back.
no idea what you're doing so i'm just speculating here.

Thanks for your answer.
The device I project to build is intended to capture audio signals from a guitare or a microphone (through XLR/Jack inputs) and send them to the transformer to a specific app.
I also imagine a direct microphone input option but i fear the audio chipset of the Transformer isn't good enough to have a correct quality.
The final goal is to transform the Transformer into a mobile music composition and capture studio.
If it can help you helping me more accuratly...

[Q] securing tablet for general public

Hi all,
I make a application android for my customers but my customers want to allow their customers access to tablet with my application "blocked". The final user can't quit my application, he can simply use my application.
Tablet must have ethernet (via usb to lan adapter), the bottom button bar must be hidden.
Can you recommend me a model ?
Thanks a lot,
I have tested the Toshiba folio 100, but with no driver video for the graphic card with andro 3.0.
Andro 3.0 is required for the usb to lan adaptater
I have try too the acer iconia a200, but isn't rootable for the moment,
now I try the samsung galaxy tab
hi Alexandre,
we have the same problem for a new project.
Do you think it's possible do do it without rooting the device ?
Hi,
may be if you wantt stay in dhcp and if you have usb lan driver in your os.
Thanks,

Lenovo thinkpad offers alot of security for the tablet and is integrated into the framework and not a app alone, which makes breaking the security alot harder for regular users even with root enabled.
i think its a question of users/companies wanting security they get Thinkpad tablet for that, which cisco client included for vpn as well.
Hi dexter,
Do you test this tablet?
Do you think it's possible to wake up this tablet automaticaly the morming? by a magic packet or a rtc alarm?
Thanks,
Hi Alexandre17220,
I think we are working on similar projects because it seems we have tested the same tablet and we are also lookgin for the followinf important things :
-A- securing the environnement by prohibiting the user to access the Os interface
-B- use a ethernet device via an USB adapter.
We have tested the following ones :
- Toshiba Folio 100 (ok for point A & B but not enough tested on HC 3.2)
- Acer Iconia A200 (the european tablet seems to be not rootable yet)
- Samsung Galaxy Tab P7510 (rootable without any problem so point A must "workable", but we habe problems with point B : do you connect your Tab with Ethernet ?)
Regards,
André
Hi André,
The samsung galaxy is very good, I have rooted it via this link http://galaxytabhacks.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-hacks/how-to-root-galaxy-tab-10-1-the-easy-way/
Yes my application dialog with a server via http request. So I don't want use wifi because it's slow and very limited.
If you want to hide the bottom bar you can use this code :
Code:
try {
Process myproc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"su","-c","service call activity 79 s16 com.android.systemui"});
myproc.waitFor();
} catch (Exception e) {
Toast.makeText(this, "impossible to kill the bottom bar", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
Thanks,

i tested the firmware on my acer a500, but not the physical lenovo hardware, but thats not important here.
and since wifi is going offline during deepsleep on tegra2 tablet, i doubt any magic packet can awaken any tegra tablet unless you force wifi always on, but then alot of angry users will complain about battery life.

[Completed] Note 3 Remote Desktop "Mouse Mode"

I understand that this forum is to direct me to a relevant thread or topic to post under. Would appreciate guidance for where to post the following question...
I am looking for a remote desktop solution, like LogMeIn or TeamViewer that doesn't require me to do any detailed configuration.
The problem is that LogMeIn, for example, won't treat my Note 3 phone as a tablet, so I can't use the mouse like a normal mouse. (The settings for mouse are "move mouse" and "move screen", but there is no direct mode available for phones to use a mouse like a regular mouse.)
My device is an Android 4.4 KitKat Samsung Note 3 phone (unfortunately rooting is not an option for me), and I am using it with the Note 2 dock with an external monitor and wireless usb keyboard/mouse. Everything works great except I can't find a good remote desktop solution that will allow me to work "normally" in terms of the mouse.
I also have Win 8 Home version and do not want to configure port forwarding and a fixed ip to solve rotating external IP address assignments. (Please excuse me if I didn't say that correctly, but I really don't want to deal with those kinds of complexities.) Yes, I realize that I may have too many constraints - no configuration challenges (which I think rules out VNC or standard RDP), and also no rooting of the phone. But I am willing to pay a small monthly subscription, e.g. I looked at PocketCloud with $5/month, but that doesn't seem to support my requirement either from a quick look at the manual.
Is there anyone who can suggest a good solution for my situation?
Hi,
The info that you provided is great, however the Note 3 is divided up on XDA by carrier, so:
If you will type Note 3 in the box above (type to find your device) , select your carrier version, go to that forum's Q & A to post your question, you should be good to go !!
Regards.

[Q] EasyCap Viewer

hello,
i bought the easycap viewer android application,
and installed it on my devices
The easycap viewer needs an easycap frame grabber , connected via usb to the device and connected to a camera (via bnc or s-video or rca connector)
the devices i have are these:
- Acer iconia tab a500 (tegra 2 , android 4.03)
- Created N7 (china phablet, mt6592, android 4.4.2)
- Xiaomi m2s (qualcomm snapdragon, miui v5)
The application does work flawlessly with the Xiaomi m2s,
instead:
on the Acer, when i start the app, the screen become black, and the app is not responding
on the Created N7,, the appl starts , but when i connect the camera, i cannot see the video coming from the camera
I dont understand why on these devices the app does not work,
and need help to understand what is the cause of the problem.
The app includes an option to send log report to the developer
(autodroid), i sent it, but autodroid told me to try with a powered hub, but this did not help...now they are working on other project, so they told me they cannot help
Could you please help me to find the cause of the problems?
By the way, on the Acer i cannot send the report, because the appl is not responding:
so i enabled the logcat, and i was able to see in it that the appl is hanging when it tries to load the streaming library...
Could you help me?
I can send you all the data you need to debug the appl..
or, if not possible to fix it, could you suggest me an alternative frame grabber application/usb dongle that can work with my devices?
PS for the forum moderators:
this question was submitted also on XDA assist,
but there only a user answered to me.
The answer was absolutely general and not satisfactory,
then the thread was closed by the same user.
So i opened this new thread.
Please keep it open,
so that i can get also other opinions from other users.
Thanks.
Thank you!!

[CLOSED] Lenovo think pad

Hello, I am asking for help. I have a little idea about matters related to winning new software, soft or Rom files for smartphones. I got a little used tablet from a friend, but on Android 4. 0 3. It's a Lenovo think Pad tablet. Its serial number is MP06R1K. I only need to use it to control the Soundcraft ui 16 mixer. It works by connecting via Wifi using a browser, but it must be an HTML enabled browser. 5 All attempts to connect to ui 16 so far have failed, because it's too old Android system and you can't download it either from the play store (you can't log in to google), also from another website and any google chrome browser that supports HTML 5. or any other browser. I am also asking for help with what program to connect the computer with the tablet and where to download the ROM, for example, android 5? Android 5?
