Hi All,
Trying to find an app that supports mirroring an Android display to a Windows PC; to no avail.
Does anyone know if this is actually possible? Given the lack of apps that support this, I'm starting to think not.
Unfortunately the devices were trying to achieve this on, do not support rooting (Tosh Excite Pro AT10-LE), so any apps that require this unfortunately are not viable...
Many Thanks in advance,
Rowan
You can use airdroid app both on pc amd android.
They are more than what you wanted.
Peace

Anyone here using Oneiric with their sensation have any advice for better compatibility?
I just recently upgraded from a W755 and have been running into a few troubles. A couple things I'm wondering:
USB tethering. I see options for both making the internet available to my phone from my computer and from my phone to my computer... I can't seem to tell if either are working. Anyone able to get these working (in linux/ubuntu w/unity)? (Haven't tried wifi hotspot but am guessing it works fine).
Management programs: Is there anything which allows easy management of phone information from a linux os? I had to work for 5 days to clean up all my contacts between duplicates, missed links and other problems. Would have been much nicer to do with some form of management interface on my laptop.
Other: In general could anyone offer up any advice for either a new smartphone user running linux as their only OS or things to watch out for? I'm already eager to see what cleaning up of the bloatware I can do when the thing gets unlocked (The fact that I can't uninstall a crappy bundled FPS is stupid).
Thanks in advance,

Hi All,
I heard sometwhere that there is an emulator that can run android apps on WP7.
I have a samsung omnia w.And due to lack of many functionalities in it I was hoping if there was an emulator for it.
I have also searched internet to full unlock it but couldnt find.
And also there is no seperate thread for samsung omnia w on xda.
Plz reply
thanks in advance
It is my understanding that the only way to currently obtain a full unlock is to use a custom ROM. Since the Omnia W (aka: Focus Flash) does not have its own thread. It's likely that there's nothing for it yet.
It is also my understanding that the way WP7 is set up (all apps are sandboxed), that you'd be better off getting an android device if you want to run android apps.
What you need is a dev who has his/her hands on the device and who wants to try to get up into it.
Good luck!
No such thing

Would be interesting to know exactly where you heard that. No, there isn't such an emulator to run Android apps on top of WP7. Maybe you confuse this with certain attempts of RIM to run Android apps on their PlayBook tablet, after a "repackaging".
Is there an app out there that can capture the s-pen input and make it a bluetooth input device or if there isnt how possible would it be to make one.
i want to add being able to use it as a graphics tablet for PC/MAC to its Rooted (or even unrooted) Features. the only way i can think how is a input hook on the device

There are a few options available for using your Note 10.1 as a graphics tablet (with varying degrees of success I might add) , however none that I know of that would take the tablet or s-pen input and turn it into bluetooth.
You didn't mention an OS so here are several options
GfxTablet
http://rfc2822.github.io/GfxTablet/
This is for GNU/Linux, but it's the best working method i've found so far. It lets you use your tablet as a graphics tablet, pressure sensitivity included.
S-Tablet
http://stablet.co.kr/
This is supposed to work on Windows, but I could never get it to work on my Win 7 x64 system. Others have reported success with it. Good luck using the website, as it's mostly in Korean.
Hope this helps you out. I personally ended up Dual Booting Windows and Linux in order to use the GfxTablet app, but whatever works best for you. I was looking for an excuse to install GNU/Linux anyway.
Well i guess its time to start working on an android solution then. any coders interested give me a shout
Hello guys,
So I have rooted my tablet and enjoyed the perks of rooting. I haven't rooted my phone yet because I am planning on buying another one but before I do that I want to ask something about rooting. I know that several people used LinuxDeploy and rooting to get Linux distro up and running. Just wondering if this would allow us to use desktop applications on an android device? I was thinking that since I do alot of analysis work for my engineering research projects that if I can use my phone to run some programming codes, matlab, CAD and maybe even OpenFoam? So I am wondering if rooting and using linux would allow me to fully utilize the SOC and maybe run desktop grade software when I am on the go or in a meeting showing something? Most vanilla andriod apps aren't robust enough to allow me to open and edit script files or 3d models/analysis data?
I want to attempt to try this on my nexus 7 (first generation) as a proof of concept?
Also if I use it for this purpose, can I still run my paid applications and google play services on a rooted device normally?
Thanks :laugh:

While you can run a Linux distro on an android device and even run some desktop applications anything heavy will generally not run or run very poorly so it depends on what applications you want to run and the power of your android device.
Hello everyone i have a question for you that will make a choice for me to root/modify/upgrade (or whatever you guys doing) my tablet or just leave it alone.
First of all i have a Motorola Xoom 2 Media Edition tablet running Android 4.0.4. I have software and hardware experience on pc windows and linux but not so much on android.
My main problem with my tablet is its running Android 4.0.4 and when i tried to install apps (especially multimedia apps like netflix , bein connect and youtube) it says my device is not compatible. And in general my tablet feels slower to when i bought it first time about 5 years ago.
My questions are;
1-Would i be able to upgrade android to newer editions at least android 5.0.0? I am asking this because my phone has android 5.0.0 and i have no problems with apps as of now.
2-If i root/modify android can i run apps like netflix and youtube or there are more problems waiting?
3-Would modifying help the speed of tablet or would it slow it down even more? Like trying to install windows 8 on a windows xp level of pc.
I'm asking these because i dont want to spend days just to find out it was not the answer i was looking for.
I hope i made myself clear please add any suggestion or roadmaps for a newbie like me. Thanks in advance.
Technically rooting doesn't allow you to upgrade your version of Android, it's the custom recovery you install that does. If there's a custom ROM out there that supports your old tablet it will work. Youtube is unaffected by root and I don't think Netflix is either. Finally, rooting technically could help the speed of your tablet if you change things like disabling fsync or running TRIM, but rooting itself doesn't change performance. Just be warned that there might not be a Lollipop or newer custom rom for your tablet!
