so for the longest time i could only use this to view but got it to work after seeing the thing about taking ownership of the cache and system so i put together a sfx that runs it and starts the jnlp.

adb shell su chmod 777 /data/dalvik-cache
adb shell su cd /data/dalvik-cache
adb shell su chmod 777 ./
asc.jnlp
exit

adb is in there so it works even if you computer doesn't have it.

Java is required.

Does it work on ICS?

I got adb working but mouse/keyboard control doesn't work.

I run adb commands but still the same.

My phone is rooted, the buttons are functional but screens doesn't react.

Great project, thanks.

It should work on ICS.

My Samsung Galaxy S with ICS works fine (albiet choppy, but that's to be expected.)
[G1 Apps and Games] MizuhoChan:
I don't suppose there's any method to increase the refresh rate slightly, is there? I'm planning to use it at college where I get no internet, just to chat on msn since tethering isn't allowed. I could do it with what I've got, but it'd be nicer to have more refreshes.

I communicated that some time ago with the author and he created a special version for me. My phone is ZTE Blade.

Download androidscreencast_zteblade.jar from http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/issues/detail?id=76 and run it.

[G1 Apps and Games] Stevemann:
Been using this app on my old HTC Desire HD. No problems. But now with the new Galaxy S3 I had no mouse or keyboard controls. But the screencast page advises:

If mouse/keyboard control doesn't work, open a command line and type :

•adb shell

•su

•chmod 777 /data/dalvik-cache

•cd /data/dalvik-cache

•chmod 777 ./

and now it all works!
[G1 Apps and Games] Kanuki:
The keyboard only support for English only. It would be the best if this tool can support other language as well.
[G1 Apps and Games] Arzzka:
Hi all. I'm trying to do some test automation using Sikuli & AndroidScreencast on ICS 4.0.4 and Ubuntu Natty, 64 bit, JRE 1.6.0_26-b03. I use the honeycomb-version of the screencast, and I've added all permissions to dalvik-cache too. It works nicely, except for the fact that that after 5-10 minutes test execution freezes, device stays on though but I cannot open adb shell anymore. Looks like some kind of adb crash. Also if I just try to restart screencast after that without rebooting the device, I get java.lang.RuntimeException: SyncService is null, ADB crashed.

Has anyone met similar issues with screencast alone?

[G1 Apps and Games] sclarktay4:
I have been trying all the suggestions all day. I have an Epic 4G Touch and I can not get this to allow me to use my keyboard and mouse. I have searched all over. Found the page that says to adb pull data@local@tmp@InjectAgent.jar@classes.dex and then adb push it back, no go. The steps in this post did not fix my issue. Is it the phone( or just the user of the phone) that is causing this to not work?

then u need to run.

does anyone here know how to 'save'?
[G1 Apps and Games] vigan8:
i cant seem to get it, i enabled adb and all!
[G1 Apps and Games] camalot:
this may be because Droid Explorer launches the ADB server and remounts the device when it launches.

I want to say nice job on this app! This is something that I have been looking in to a bit for Droid Explorer, just not hard enough :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Stigy:
Using it and it is awesome!!
[G1 Apps and Games] miamidade:
not working for me... wondering if its because i'm running 1.6?
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
I may try experimental cyanogen next week, i'll see if there is something that prevent it to work.
[G1 Apps and Games] camalot:
I am using cyanogen 4.1.6 and it works for me.

Do you have any objection to me adding a way to launch this application right from Droid Explorer? Info will be added to the about window (once i create that:)) giving credit where credit is due.
[G1 Apps and Games] Meltus:
Working perfectly for me! obviously it's a little slow but, damn, this is some impressive work :D

I'll be following this thread pretty closely :p
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
Yeah, sure.

Droid Explorer looks great. I'm using Ubuntu at home so i can't test it :-( I might add a basic explorer-like window for the linux and macos users but doesn't intent to compete with droid explorer.
[G1 Apps and Games] NPerry:
Great worked first time, are you going to be releasing this explorer like for linux as would be very excited to see it!
[G1 Apps and Games] Stigy:
Yup that screenshot above is from me running 1.6 - works just fine!
[G1 Apps and Games] camalot:
try starting ADB first and then start screencast and see if that helps.

adb remount

you should see something like:

* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
remount succeeded
[G1 Apps and Games] DownloaderZ:
this is incredible.

Thanks!!!

and i can confirm, i had to go into cmd and do "adb devices" first for it to recognize.

[G1 Apps and Games] Knightsofwar210:
This is great =D Keep up the good work! If you can get it to run faster this will be perfect, oh and some short cuts or some buttons at the bottom of the window for the call, home, input button, backspace and end button and it'll be perfect! oh and maby the volume buttons.

Hey - I installed DroidExplorer and love the ScreenCast! I did have to upgrade to jre1.6 (for the poster above who had trouble) but it is great! since moving to the G1 and Android from my Wing, I missed this capability - Thank you much. Looking forward to watching this app grow.

[G1 Apps and Games] brummiesteven:
Working fine in Windows 7 64bit, Android 1.6.

Display is a bit slow but as someone else has pointed out... if you watch the screen on the phone it's just as if your using your finger touching the phone itself so the lag is only on the PC.
[G1 Apps and Games] mgorman:
I dont know if this has been brought up but how about adding the hard buttons?
[G1 Apps and Games] giantcrazy:
Dude...

You...are....the....MAN!

I've been asking for this app for a year now. Having moved from WiMo to Android and losing the MyMobiler app, I've missed it immensely.

Now, I can easily reply to texts from my desktop while I'm at work instead of fumbling with the phone.

You rock!
[G1 Apps and Games] palosjr:
agreed, this works great, now i can actually use my cell in class without profs calling me out lol

hard buttons would be a great advantage. or better yet, a wireless solution. it may lag, but it could be possible.
[G1 Apps and Games] NPS_CA:
works well... it did hang the radio and USB on my phone though - reboot cleared it (got a adb devices showing 'offline' )
[G1 Apps and Games] LinkinX:
Is this stilling being worked on?
[G1 Apps and Games] Maisum:
Think there could be a way to use this without using a wire? Wirelessly control your phone from your computer.

But either way AMAZING application!

yes, i was on vacations, so i haven't work on it a lot. I've already nearly finished a video recording functionnality and started to work on a basic file explorer window.
[G1 Apps and Games] SolemnWishing:
I don't understanding why this application isn't receiving more attention. This has the potential to simulate that video-out a lot of people want from this phone. I tried watching a video on my phone with this program, granted it was slow and goes at like 2 frames per second, but this thing has huge potential. And by the way, you ought to get a neat little donate button.
[G1 Apps and Games] ThrashWolf:
That's brilliant!

Give me a shout if you want beta testers or anything like that, I'd be more than happy to oblige.

As SolemnWishing said, this app has a lot of potential, I already use it very often, and as I don't have the skills necessary to help with it's coding development, I'd love to be able to help out in any other respect I can :)

Just tell your professor that you are taking notes on your phone. I actually did when I was in grad school but they didn't have such advanced phones when I was an undergrad (no one actually had cell phones it was that long ago, LOL). Seriously, show your professor Docs to Go and you are then free to use your phone at will. But I teach now and know that trick.

Hi there... I really would like this to work, but I've tried almost everything.

I've got the Java 6

USB-debugging enable

SDK1.6 downloaded, and unpacked to c:\androidSDK (havent installe eclipse or anything else)

But when I try to run the link (jlnp-link) it says "Unable to lauch the application" (error Code=2, permission denied),

Do you need root to gain access or should it work without?

When running the ADB devices (from c:\androidsdk\tools) 1 device is in the list. When I try adb remount, it says remount failed operation not permitted.

what do I do wrong... I really hope that someone can help me out...
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
Yes, i think you need root permission for now. I'll investigate this... you can star this issue to be kept in touch :

[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
Done :

- Video recording

- Permission denied fixed

- Basic file explorer : started, 10%

- Performance improvement : working on it. I've some ideas but it require root permission. Working with stock devices would be cool but i don't think it'll be possible based on the original android permissions.

I wanted to release a new version yesterday but i'm facing a bug : my device is crashing quite often while androidscreencast is running, don't know why, need investigation...
[G1 Apps and Games] jerhoyet:
I can't say that it is perfect, frame rate needs to be increased to at least 15fps or so, but it's an outstanding application none-the-less!
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
Test recorded with androidscreencast without any additionnal software !

2 hours trying to improve framerate without luck today :(
[G1 Apps and Games] ThrashWolf:
Wow, video's looking good, and keep at it dude, I'm confident if you get the framerate up to speed, this'll be an essential app
[G1 Apps and Games] djkoch:
Wauw... I'm really looking forward trying it out, when the new file is online (still getting the permission error) :-)

Thanks for the great work... hope the bug with all the restarts you're talking about have been solved...

When I open the camera application it seems to increase the frame rate on my comp? Or maybe i'm just seeing things....

One of my G1s has a broken screen so the only way i can use it is via screencast. The touch screen works but nothing shows up. What I though was a brick is now a great testing device. If you'd like, I'll flash any ROM you want to test. Let me know since this application gave new life to my broken G1 (I use it via Droid Explorer).

There may be a small issue with the recovery console. When I am in recovery and drop to console, it works fine. If I go back to recovery and then back to console, nothing works and I need to pull the battery (remember, my G1 screen doesn't so nobody else may be experiencing this). It's no biggie though. Also, when in recovery, mouse clicks return a Java error (sorry, I don't have the error handy). Thid id also no biggie since there is no need for the mouse here anyway. One last thing. I was having some trouble with the trackball in recovery mode. It would decide to skip an option whenever it felt like it. Wish the G1 had a d-pad like my old Dash did.
[G1 Apps and Games] djkoch:
About the framerate.... it doesn't have any influence on e.g. text you're typing on the desktop pc - except that it displays on the Android device with a little lag?

Honestly - I cannot wait any longer ;) Plz let's see the new release - and we'll be prepared on the restarts :-)

Hello! I've been looking for an application like this for months, and I would really like to get going with it. But I get a problem when I start it up.

It says "The program can not be started" and if I go for detailed information it says "Timeout getting device list". I've tried with 'adb remount' and then 'adb devices' and I find my phone:

C:\Documents and Settings\anderant\Desktop>adb devices

List of devices attached

HT95PKF03152 device

But I still get the "Timeout getting device list".

I'm using a rooted HTC Magic (32a) with ION 1.6 Donut rom on Windows XP and Java runtime 6.* and SDK 1.6

Please help me!

Thanks in advance :)

Is your screen on while you're connecting? (noobish I know, but just in case you over looked it ;) )
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
You're not seeing things, i think that when the screen on the device is refreshing the refreshrate is increasing on the desktop... it's definitly a clue for speed improvement, it's a framebuffer reading issue... i'll try digging this way soon.
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
Never trieds screencast in recovery mode, i'll have a look. Thank your for your feedback
[G1 Apps and Games] acid256:
text and mouse events have only a little lag (if you look at your device and don't look at your computer screen when typing or dragging mouse, it's quite responsive)

It looks like a java web start issue, i'll provide an offline package for windows and linux in the future, it may solve your problem.
