Instead of the APC, you'd probably be much better off just getting a portable car battery booster, like the Schumacher XP750C Instant Portable Power Source. (I'd give you a link but I don't have enough posts yet.) Those come with a USB port and can jumpstart your car in an emergency too!

You'll look stupid as hell because the tablet isn't made to be used as a phone. No ear speaker and no proximity sensor also the mic isn't lined up against your mouth.

I don't think your comments have anything to do with this thread. The OP didn't ask "what would it looked like if I used a tablet as a phone" he asked if it was possible to. Big difference.

I think this would be awesome, my Note looks stupid when I hold it up to my head, bluetooth headsets look stupid but they're very useful when I'm working with my hands. Bottom line is I don't care how it makes me look. I think it would be awesome if they made a 7" phone.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jibby777:
Hey everyone, I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII (LTE Version) and no matter how hard I try I can't get it to solidly connect to my computer!

What happens whenever I plug the Galaxy SIII into my PC (Windows 8) is a follows:

I hear the device connected sound from my PC and the charging indication from my SIII. So far so good, but most of the time when I go to "My Computer" the phone isn't listed anywhere. After a couple of times plugging the USB cable in and out it shows up on the PC, but almost instantly after being listed I can hear the device disconnected sound and the window closes. If I move the cable for the SIII even a tiny bit I can hear the device connected sound almost instantly followed by the device disconnected sound and a message from Windows telling me that the USB device malfunctioned.

This makes the task of copying photos or movies to and from the device near enough impossible. The phone is only a few months old and is completely unmodified! The USB cable is also the stock out-of-the-box one. This doesn't seem to be a new issue either! It's been happening almost out of the box but I assumed it was down to drivers (which were updated but made no change) and now it's starting to annoy me very much!

Any help would be much appreciated :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jibby777:
Alright, so I went digging in the cupboard and found the cable from my old Xperia Play. Upon using that as opposed to the one Samsung shipped with the phone, the connection issues seem to have vanished. (I'll update here if they return)

I suppose this goes to show badly made the stock Samsung cables are which is quite a shock considering Samsung expect people to rely on them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The cables are crap. The s3 has built in stability detection. If connection unstable with cable, lowers charge to 100mA.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boardnz:
Hi Folks,

I wanted to post this in the TeamSense thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2255160), but being a new member it won't let me...

I live in New Zealand and have a HTC One locked to the Vodafone NZ Network. Its running the stock kernel + ROM, but it has been rooted.

Basically I've got a couple of issues with the phone stock:

- The OTG support is very hit and miss. I have a USB Telemetry receiver/transmitter for my Remote Control APM quadcopter,

this should connect to the apps Droidplanner or Andropiolot, but when I connect the stick to the phone with an OTG cable I get the error unsupported device. Same problem with my Nikon DSLR and a bunch of other devices that should work. Note: Keyboard, Bluetooth mice etc work fine....so the connection is there!

- I also have a Go Pro 3 Black edition and the Go Pro app installed on the phone, the live previw only works in software and wont support the hardware preview mode so it turns off the preview if I start recording.

All this said, my GF has a 100% Stock Samsung S4 and the I can plug in the Telemetry stick and it connects and works fine with the quad. I can also connect the Go Pro, have its preview set to hardware render, so I can preview and record at the same time (great for live view on the Heli, while capturing the action too!)

So needless to say I'm pretty pissed I've got a device on paper that should be as good or better, but in real life it doesn't play ball!

So I realise this is due to lack of support from HTC...So I Installed the Teamsense Kernel (http://d-h.st/0Mw) to hopefully fix the issues, the USB telemetry works, but and a big but the phones on-board camera no longer works! If you I load the camera app the screen comes up black.

Anyone know what's going on?? Maybe I'm not doing the Kernel upgrade correctly - I've tried the stock/Home2wake buttons, etc options at setup with no changes to the camera problem...

Cheers

Cheers, looks like he had the same issue, but he just ended up flashing a stock 4.2.2 kernel & rom to fix the problem? AFAIK the stock 4.2.2 doesn't add any more compatibility for OTG?

I can resolve my camera issues by going back to stock, but I'd prefer to have the camera and full OTG support :), and hopefully Go Pro hardware support too
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoryTallman:
What you can do is flash a 4.2.2 Rom, then reflash the custom kernel. It will have the same OTG support you have now, but with working cameras.

Hi guys...

Can anyone tell me how to share/access files present on my hard drive so that I need not copy the files to my PPC. I did not mean " Activesync"

I probably remember someone by name "KARIM" who had mentioned about this in one of the imate forums. but I don't remember where it is now. He explained about installing the widcomm bluetooth stack & then having resco explorer 2003 installed. u can create a network share & map ur hard drives and access files on pocket pc. that would be rocking... u don't have to copy ur images/music to ur PPC. u could play them thru bluetooth at a decent speed.

can anyone help me out on this. It would be highly appreciated if anyone could give step by step instructions on how to go ahead with this.

I am having Widcomm Bluetooth stack installed from xda forum & I am using TDK Bluetooth Adapter. I have even resco explorer installed. I have updated my ROM to 1.11 WWE

awaiting for ur earliest reply.

Thanks & Regards

Iffu
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] icarusbop:
Hmm ok, I think you are trying to do what I have done...

I can access the HDD on my Desktop pc from my XDA/i-Mate over a BT link.

The HDD on my desktop is shared out across the network, and the shared drives can be accessed by the PDA, using resco you can map network drives to the PDA and voila the drives are there.

This took me about 3 weeks to get running. The problem is My solution will probably be no good to you as it involves using my server which has Win Server 2003 on it and the solution involves using network address translation to the bluetooth network.....

I can hope fully give you some pointers though.

You need The widcomm stack on your mobile device as the pathertic MS builtin stack does not support the required profiles.

Get the widcomm stack installed and working ok, install the BT dongle and software on your desktop pc as well, you may get a network connection error icon on your desktop pc system tray. this is because the bluetooth network is off.

we are interested in the 'Network' profile (not the PAN profile), make sure the network access profile on the Desktop is enabled, create a paring to the desktop using widcomm stack, and the 'connect to a network' icon, the desktop pc will probaby ask for permission to connect. ( here is a major annoyance - you can select a checkbox that says ' always allow this connection' (or similar) this only works until the desktop pc is rebooted, after a reboot you will need to give permission again!! Since my server is very rareley rebooted it does not cause me a major problem - but if you find a way round it please let me know!)

Your desktop pc should report that the bluetooth network is now connected.

disconnect the connection, but you should now have a shortcut on your PDA in widcomm connection manager to the network connection.

Now for the tricky bit. If your Desktop is part of a network it gets difficult. if not it's easier...

We need to setup some ip addresses for the BT Lan. Decide on some ip addresses. you need one for the desktop and one for the PDA. (eg 192.168.0.50 & 192.168.0.51 mask=255.255.255.0)

On the desktop configure the ip address on the 'Bluetooth network' lan connection as you would any other lan card

On the PDA goto start/settings/connections (TAB)/connections/advanced (TAB)/network card - in the box labelled 'tap an adapter to modify settings' select Bluetooth PAN user driver' (if this is not here, your widcomm is not installed correctly) .This is where you put in the ip config for your BT network on the PDA

Now connect the BT network link again (Widcomm BT manager)

You should be able to ping your PDA with it's BT ip from your desktop, if it works, your BT LAN is now working. ( you can also get some free ping software for the PDA too, to test the other direction do a search for vxutil)

if the pings work ok, load up Resco and tell it to map a drive, hopefully the Desktop and it's shared disks should appear.

Let me know how you go...

i mean if i set up the widcomm drivers maybe my BT is going to failure, it cost to many work to get it back on again... :?

it workt on my M500 in combonation with the Sitecom BT stick and the new drivers, so no wiodcomm drivers are been used

I had a back up after starting all this, so i tryed to restore to the original one. But it wont work at all, can this be fixed in some way? Did i delete something that shouldnt have been deleted?

Im really new to this, i had Miui on my s2 many years ago. So i wanted it on my HTC one, but its completely diffrent now.

After spending some time reading up on what i actully did, i know understand why it didnt work. Think ive been flashing stuff the wrong way.. But i managed to get a old recovery file from this site, installed it. And now its working, was a little worried about my touch actully being broken..
