Hi

Samsung have released a tv remote for the galaxy s that will allow you to control some of their new tv models.

The apk is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7887180&postcount=12

However it wont install on my HTC desire. Error "Application no installed" Is it possibly to extract the apk and install manually? Failing that are there any galaxy s 2.2 roms running on the desire? Im sure i remember a 2.1 rom that did.

Thanks

TV remote?

I believe this could be a strongly hardware related app.

Furthermore : Most of the TV remotes are running with infrared signals, well....

Desire doesn't have infrared transmitting or receiving hardware, not without an additional accessory.

That could be the cause why the app is not running on Desire.
[Desire General] huwwatkins:
This programme doesnt work like that - it transmits commands over your lan by wifi which the tv then picks up either via ethernet or wlan. I just need to get it installed. Maybe installing the touchwiz ui would make it work?
[Desire General] UKseagull:
I'd love to get that working on my Desire too, tried to install but it spat it out. :p
[Desire General] majo_scigo:
I would like it as well. Somebody must know how to do it. It does even exist on iphone. Why not any other android???
[Desire General] FarSight87:
I am also interested as to whether anyone has this working on their desire. Any news?
[Desire General] Lothaen:
maybe because its a samsung app for a samsung device for a samsung tv - they may have put in a little piece of code checking that it is running on a samsung device?

just a thought...
[Desire General] L00N3YB!N:
Maybe a bit far fetched:

But have you tried putting the app into /system/app/ then restart your phone.

I don't know if you could do this or that it will work, must be worth a try :)
[Desire General] iLHaNroID:
Guys, is there a separate/external infrared device -like an external gps receiver- can be controlled via BT from phone thanks to a dedicated app and acts as a repeater for commands; i.e. receive and transmit to tv/dvd/stereo/whatever?
[Desire General] JonathanCassar:
Anyone had any joy with this ?

I have a desire HD and a C9000 so would be nice to get it working!
[Desire General] JonathanCassar:
In the market it says:

This application is only for Samsung Mobile Phone and will be updated soon to work with other Android phones.

I wonder how long soon is ?

[Desire General] zozo010200:
hi guys!

C550 TO TV remote control can be done?

or is there another tv remote control C550 which TO would be good?

I tried many things but none of them does not work.

Thanks!
[Desire General] floyd0815:
Don't know exactly what you're meaning, but if you have a newer C-series Samsung TV, which is also connected to your wlan, and you want to have a android-remote-control for that, you should try the app from the post above.

Otherwise, ???
[Desire General] Lothaen:

Hi

I realise there are a few posts regarding this allready, but I can't find any answering my specific questions, so I'm hoping you can help me.

1st up - how do I connect my DHD to the PS3 through DLNA?

2nd - will the PS3 play videoes and pictures from my device?

3rd - Do i need extra applications installed on my PS3, and which?

I tried connecting to the PS3, the same way as I tried streaming from my DHD to windows mediaplayer. I can't seem to find any settings on the PS3 enabling me to activate this function, so I can control the PS3 from my phone.

Can I control the media on my DHD from my PS3 otherwise?

All help is appreciated, would really like to get to know this DLNA-function.

thanks in advance

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] jemuillot:
It's my fault to have post this message here.

It's for G7, but I think it is also OK for Incredible.

========================================

1. Prepare a short mp3 and name it android_audio.mp3

2. Put the mp3 under the adb folder

3. Save the following code as !bootaudio.bat (I use this name)

4. Turn your phone into ADB debugging mode

5. run !bootaudio.bat

6. Reboot your phone and have fun!

This should work on almost all G7

Tips: During the boot animation, the volume would change twice. So I suggest insert 1 second before the audio for escaping from the volume changing side-effect.

adb shell mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

adb shell rm /data/local/android_audio.mp3
adb push android_audio.mp3 /data/local/

adb shell rm /system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3
adb shell ln -s /data/local/android_audio.mp3 /system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3

adb shell ls -l --color=never /data/local
adb shell ls -l --color=never /system/customize/resource/

adb pull /system/customize/CID/default.xml

pause

Script description:

Mount the system path to enable writing access.

Remove the original boot sound if it exists.

Push your mp3 into the data/local, where the bootanimation.zip is.

Make a link to data/local/android_audio.mp3

List the two affected pathes for you to confirm the result

Pull the default.xml out from the phone, if you find it not work after reboot, you can check the xml to see what the actural fullpath it is using. And manually change the script to try again.

:D

My current boot sound is attached to the thread.

Please help!!!!!!!!!

I rooted my HTC EVO 4g using Unrevoked, it worked fine, then I decided to flash a new rom, followed all the steps and I backed up my stock and wipe data/factory reset and Davik, now my phone doesn't read the sd card, is not even connecting throw usb, not even for charging.

Took the sd card out and did a FAT32 format (4 times already), downloaded the new zip to it and still not reading.

Can't do a restore because I re-formated the sd card and is not reading anyways.

I have another SD card and same thing happens.

As soon as I check install zip from card it reads

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)

I don't have access to my phone, I can only go to H BOOT or Recovery.

If I connect my USB it reads HBOOT USB PLUG, and because I deleted the stock ROM, I can't send any info to the phone.

It is possible that the debugging is not even on and I can't turn it back on without access to the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] housry23:
I have noticed the the sd card in me EVO is kinda funny. If I push it in all the way my phone won't read it. If I push it in then close the little latch then kinda pull it straight out with my fingernail until the back is right up against the plastic in the slot it reads it. Try that...it might be your problem. If not I would RUU back to stock and take it back to Sprint and get a new one.

[Windows Phone 7 General] mtem1985:
well i've found out that you can deploy apps from visual basic express for windows phone directly to your phone when it's unlocked.

so if some of the app developers can upload their apps as a visual basic project you can deploy it to your phone.

Yesterday i've downloaded some apps from the apps hub of MS and deployed it to my phone.

Just for testing purpose but they work :)

Now it's time for me to learn to create programs, but i don't know what to create :)

i''ve made the standard apps from visual basic express, but they aren't very usefull...
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
The chevronwp7 tool has 2 purposes and not the third...

1. For developers to test their apps without needing to pay the developer fee, this is more beneficial for those regions that don't yet have a way to pay for a developer account, but want to start working on it anyways

2. For apps that may use native code which won't get into market place, and in this case they can provide the xap which you can deploy.

In these two and all other cases, no developer in their right mind would hand out their intellectual property (their source code) unless they were doing it for others to learn from. Especially with a paid application, why would they give the source code out when it is in the market place?

The creators of chevronwp7 have already stated that this will not help in loading paid apps from market place either.

Hope this clears things up for you.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mtem1985:
I have no intention to "steal" apps from their developers.

I just want to create my own programs, and learn from others.

There are dozens of free apps in the marketplace, and there were plenty of developers in the time of wm 6.5 which were programming for fun, and release their apps here on XDA so others can benefit from.

I think when time goes by these developers will release their apps here, because of the fee MS charges for developers to release the apps on marketplace.

So if your app is free, why not release the xap? No hassle with marketplace and native codes, and people who aren't interested in the code won't even think to look at the code.

I hope I made my point clear, it's not to install paid apps for free, but to help the developers who don't have acces to marketplace.
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
yea, which was it's original intent which is good. though given that chevronWP7 has now been taken down by it's creators we have to wait and see as to what they're doing with MS. MS has started negotiations with them to try and encourage the homebrew. lets see what happens of it all.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
I'm sure developers will release commercial apps in source form :P Even *most* free app developers won't do it, because of the way others like to copy code and create redundant apps. That has never been a popular trend on any mobile OS, and I don't see it becoming such.

@ OP: The unlock that came out for WP7 is not a jailbreak. It does nothing but allow you to use you device to test and deploy applications, instead of the emulator.

Just sayin:

http://www.goodandevo.net/2010/11/m...intuitive-browsing-experience-to-htc-evo.html

** My favorite parts:

1) Doesn't show the page until it is fully loaded and ready to view top to bottom.

2) Instantaeous back/forward - no waiting while pages reload.

3) Zero screen lag while scrolling.

4) Clean iPhonish interface (which I personally have always liked).

5) Very intuitive. Stuff is where you expect it to be and works like you expect it to work.

Did I mention it's fast?

** The ultimate test - I just loaded www.redskins.com. This website has always absolutely destroyed every other browser I have tried - usually just giving up 20 seconds after clicking the link. Miren loaded this ready to go in 5 seconds.

Update >> 6) Saves your spot on your bookmark list so that when you go back to it, you can see where you left off instead of starting again at the top. This is something I always liked about Dolphin.
[EVO 4G General] Skeptron:
Nice thanks.. trying it nao
[EVO 4G General] blkout01:
Seems to be a lot of browsers floating around. It's hard to stick with one when I keep trying out new ones and they all seem to have some perks.

On to try this one out
[EVO 4G General] Skeptron:
It is blazing. these chinese devs know what they doin. Tnx again for sharing.. Hope they add skins soon
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
Yep. It's almost funny. I guess I am used to pages taking a certain amount of time to load then being kind of jerky as you scroll through them - especially if the page isn't 100% done loading.

Anyway, first webpage I opened with this actually kind of made my head jerk back like damn, that was quick. Then I noticed how smooth the scrolling was and I was in love.

When you double tap the screen it transitions very quickly from overview to close-up - again without the stuttering your get in other browsers. Its kind of like they took the best bits of Opera, Dolphin and Stock Browser and mashed 'em up.

** Oh yeah, another thing I like. When you open a bookmark, if you go back to the bookmark list from the webpage, it "saves" your spot and doesn't take you back to the top of the list. I like this because I often like to go through my favorite links one by one and hate having to start from the top again every time.

No doubt its the fastest ive used thus far... but no mobile view? I hate scrolling from side to side when im looking at a webpage.
[EVO 4G General] animal7296:
Agreed but I think the speed more than makes up for side scrolling.
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
An alternative would be just to double tap screen. It quickly goes to overview mode. Then double tap the place you want to read and it zooms in. It's pretty quick doing this - sort of like Opera.
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
I use XScpe and I tried this just now, I'm keeping XScope. Others should try it as well. BTW Dolphin HD the slowest browser out there, even slower than the stock browser, only tooted for it's abilities for themes, plugins, settings, etc, no big deal, I think speed is way more important on 3G.
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
I prefer this over xScope simply because I like the UI better. xScope is fast but when you scroll webpages it has a tendency to stutter. This does not. One of the reasons xScope is fast is that it has no overhead, even bookmarks are rendered in html; however, if you want your browser to be fast and pretty, I recommend this :)
[EVO 4G General] Plancy:
I've noticed scrolling is laggy but I only notice it when I zoom through a website, so the lagginess doesn't really matter to me since I'm not trying to read anything obviously and I'm still able to make out pictures and certain texts. I like that it's a lightweight browser, it loads quickly and does not have so many bells and whistles.

Q.Does Miren have the option to render a page before it's fully loaded, I don't like that it doesn't?
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Isn't this the MIUI browser?

Very well designed but I don't like the clashing look with stock Android. WAY too iOS like. I might make a Android themed version.
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
Similarity to iOS is purely a matter of personal taste. Some like it and some don't. An Android skin would be quite popular I'm sure ;-)

One other thing I noticed that I like is that you can arrange your bookmarks into folders - yay!

One odd bug I noticed that is probably the result of this being translated from Chinese. All the folders are listed in REVERSE alphabetical order.
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
Ah just found out where it has a setting for mobile web page browser. You need to adjust "bandwidth-saving mode" in settings.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
Some pages were cruising some were sluggish as all hell. Been messing with it but can't tell if I really like it. Am so used to the layout of Dolphin. Some claim its slow but no other ones feel "faster."

I did like the instantaneous forward / back loading of pages though.

SWYPED from my SUPASONIC
[EVO 4G General] atapia984:
Hulu is kind of sluggish, but everything runs real smoooth.
[EVO 4G General] mitchellvii:
I think what you are interpreting as sluggishness is just a different way this browser loads pages.

Most browsers load pages a piece at a time. Because of this, the page "looks" like it is loading fast because you see the page even though it is not usable yet.

With this browser it only shows you the page once it is fully loaded, thus it may appear on occasion that it is slower.

I prefer the wait-till-its-ready method.

Compass Calibration

I had the same experience, calibration kind of solves it. It still has +/-15 degrees of error, but that doesn't really bother me. Is this normal? I'm not expecting more, but I thought I'd ask others how their devices behave, since this is the first gadget of mine that has a compass. A "rusty old compass", well said :)

My other question is if it's normal if my phone needs calibration almost every time I launch an app that needs the compass (once or twice daily). Calibration instantly fixes it, but it seems odd for me that a device needs calibration every time when used.

Hope I'm not too late on this thread, and also hi everyone, my first post here, YAY.
