I've just installed your app and I have some things to report.

1. wonderful idea, very useful, keep improving.

2. installed, put in name, pass, enabled it, found it in the browser. And then:

- what works: file management (up and down all ok), music player (again, ok, no issues)

- what does not: video (thumbnails load, but when clicking, the player loads, the file buffer loads, but the video does not play - videos taken with the phone camera), pictures (some thumbs load, but navigation is verry iffy, pictures when they do load are loaded distorted, and mostly not load at all), SMS (inbox and outbox load ok, but tried to send a text and the recipient had not received it 15 minutes later)

3. There were issues with my browser, which stopped responding several times. I waited and it did not crash entirely.

4. the overall graphics could be improved - I can help with that. PM me if you need it.

About my setup:

HTC Desire stock Froyo

Firefox 3.6.13

Linksys router

Don't know how to logcat, hope this description helps.

THAT WAS THE SOLUTION!!

So if you have touble connectiong to your phone, you should ping your computer from your phone using a terminal app.

After this, you will be able to ping your phone from your computer and Browsix will work.

Maybe it's an idea to put the PING feature in the Android app, as well as on the webpage??

I have also found, that once my screen goes off, I am unable to ping my phone again (host unreachable).

Is there anyway this could be fixed?
[Android Apps and Games] spolfliet:
I hope these issues get fixed in a new version of CyanogenMod. Did someone try with CM7? (I believe the screen issue is also something specific to CM6.1)

Hi Tilton53,

The past weeks I have been focusing on fixing bugs. I have also been trying very hard to get more users by trying to spread the word (I even spent some $$'s on advertising, but that didn't really help. I guess you really need a fortune to do that).

Spreading the word is really hard for me, please help me if you can by posting a review on appbrain.com, other forums, sites, etc... The more users I get, the better Browsix will be :-) Of course I'm sure that I will get more users if Browsix becomes even better (the chicken or the egg problem?)

In the meantime I am also working on a new page to manage your contacts...

Thanks,

I've been getting a lot of force closes lately. I'm running Browsix Lite 2.2 on SkyRaider 4. They seem to be random but let me know if there's something I can do to narrow it down.
[Android Apps and Games] krzych:
Can anyone tell me what for this application needs browsix.com? Descriptions suggest that it should allow browsing the phone - this looks like direct connecting to http server on the phone (eg. by local/external IP on port 8888 of which I was informed by the app), and similar apps (WIFI Remote) do exactly what I've said... and should do no more without permission or VERY CLEAR information before installing.

I've uninstalled this app ONLY because of unauthorized connection to browsix.com (I've never had a chance to check or uncheck option allowing this). I'm very sorry, but I'm not so trustful to send the data how to browse my phone all over the internet (especially when the checkbox allowing root browsing is on) ;->.
[Android Apps and Games] spolfliet:
The main idea behind Browsix is that every user, even those who do not know what an IP address is, can use the app to Browse their phone.

Besides that, the only information that Browsix knows is your local IP address. Since you are behind a router, there is no way for an external 'malicious' user to access your phone. Browsix just uses this as a trick to map your public IP to an internal IP, but you can only use it inside your local network.

The range of possible internal IPs is not that big anyway. If an attacker would really want to do something with that it could just guess that it is probably something like 192.168.1.x or similar.

Anyway, maybe I'll add an option to not contact the browsix server (for advanced users)...
[Android Apps and Games] krzych:
First of all, you don't know that I'm behind a router or not. Second, any user that can read could read the IP which is shown by the application anyways, this does not sound right... And third, if your app connect to browsix.com then YOUR APP creates connection which is a way to GET INTO the LOCAL network. A connection (especially TCP one) is a two way thingy. And you can exploit anything, a connection especially. And the last but not least - I simply don't like my private data wandering out my sweet home without a reason. If you would write a warning like this "You use my app, I collect your data in exchange" and simply explain which data, I would consider it, but not like this without a warning even (iptables was kind enough to inform me, otherwise I would not even know that anything about me is visible wide on the internet - it's quite not fair).

And by the way - WIFI Remote users (those "not networked" too) has no problems with using displayed IP and the're quite happy. I was too.
[Android Apps and Games] spolfliet:
krzych, I have added an option to disable external communication to browsix.com in the latest version 2.2.3 of Browsix.

others, You should only need this if you really like typing IP addresses or if you are paranoid.
[Android Apps and Games] TastyTorge:
it works fine for me. cool app thank you!

There have been problems with some ROM's as they seem to be blocking incoming http connections. A temporary solution is to break the firewall by pinging your PC (as described here http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/11046-cannot-ping-to-htc-aria-incoming-connection-blocked/page__p__123383)

IP Issue

the problem i'm having with this application is when it starts, it shows me an IPV6 IP, versus IPv4 - so it's an alphanumeric garbly goop that won't translate in a web browser - if i use another 3rd party app that shows traditional ip 192.168.x.x I can use browsix. is there anywhere to for this application to ONLY use the older IPv4? so i dont have to use another app for IP?

I'm looking for the same thing for as close to free as possible. I tried downloading the file off google/android (i can't think if the exact file right nite) but for whatever reason it keeps saying I don't have permission when in reality I'm rooted and have rom manger but running stock everything . Any advise?!?
[General Questions and Answers] metlmangreg:
If you are rooted, most of the froyo roms have tethering and mobile internet access point with them
[General Questions and Answers] misfitpierce:
Maybe you could try market enabler from the market and make it think you have T-Mobile or something cause att blocks out mostly all tethering apps. I read that works although I have T-Mobile and haven't had anything blocked so I have not tested personally.
[General Questions and Answers] spram:
I have Andromeda 2.1 on my Captivate, and so far as I know, it doesn't have a tethering app preinstalled. I'm going to ask and find out, and a few other questions I have, as soon as I get to the 10 post limit! gah...

Anyway, before I installed Andromeda, I was running the stock ROM rooted with wifi tether from the google code page. The app would run, but I could not connect to it (though I was trying on my Tab). Comes to find out that the wifi tether app creates an ad-hoc network, with the Tab won't connect too. I need to get an AP app. Still working on that solution (though I haven't had much time to test it).
[General Questions and Answers] Jengle:
Paragon 5.1 ROM has tethering.
[General Questions and Answers] DreamPCs:
Well, as already said most custom roms have these options built in under Settings > Wireless & Network... But in lieu of flashing an entirely new ROM for one feature, you could simply download barnacle wifi from the market.

In the event that it's not in your market (hadn't heard of carriers being able to remove certain apps from the market) I'm sure you can find the apk (the extension of Android App Installers) via google.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
I've been talking to svetius, the admin responsible for "User Experience" at XDA, and apparently the G2 and Desire Z forums are going to be merged very soon now.

So this is just a heads-up for everyone to expect this.

I think it's going to be a very very good thing, because after all the G2 and DZ are essentially the same phones and run the same custom ROMs, so it will be good to have everything in one place. I think it will also encourage people who develop things to check how they work on both the G2 and DZ.

I've no idea how existing threads are going to be handled, but I'm sure the mods have it all in hand.

So soon, we're going to be sharing a single audience, and G2's and DZ's have their own different stock ROMs (e.g. HTC Sense on the DZ, just for a start). So when we post up about a basic problem with out phones, it's going to make it even more important to say which phone/ROM we have !

:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] chevy383surfing:
Must be a good thing. A lot of people may think that they are completely different phones.
[G2 and Desire Z General] dhkr123:
What it will do is reduce duplication and "walking distance" by keeping everything applicable in the same place.

The phones aren't "basically" the same, they are IDENTICAL. And don't say "frequency", because there are more than two sets of frequencies available on them despite having ONLY 2 common named.
[G2 and Desire Z General] icolorado303:
sounds like a good idea to me
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Agreed. It's silly re-inventing the wheel for the DZ and G2 forums.

Well, to be fair, they're not identical, because they have different HBOOT, different partitioning (very small difference), and different keyboard layouts.

But all those are minor issues - we don't need to mess with HBOOT now we've got gfree, so that counts out the first issue. The second issue is I think only one for a stock ROM. And the third issue is a very common one on all phones, they usually are made with different keyboard layouts for different regions, and custom ROMs should be able to handle this by add-on keymaps, or even better, options to switch keyboard layout.
[G2 and Desire Z General] luis86dr:
Sounds like a good idea to me. Gives assistance on both ends from knowledgeable users on both ends of the field. +1.

Great thinking. Right now it is like making a hospital for each person, based on their surnames. Lol.
[G2 and Desire Z General] J-Hop2o6:
****, i came from the TP2 section.. there are many different iterations of it (US=4-6 models because of US carriers -- Euro=5+ because of the different country languages).. many of them use different keyboard layouts.. but there was a quick fix by installing a keyboard fix .cab file (which i always had to use for my TmoUSA TP2 layout to fix the ALT key and the HOME button) since Cookers mainly used one ROM language & layout, which is WWE (world wide English).

but anyways, this shouldn't be a problem really, even tho the internals are a bit different.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ddgarcia05:
It seems that their the only subsection which actually gets heavy usage is the General Forum. The rest is very very dead. I suggest a full merge of the all but the General Forum section. Most of their users are on the sense rom and most of ours are on the froyo stock. I think a full merge of the General forums will only produce confusion for the noods and make it harder for any order to come about. Perhaps we can leave the two general forums separated for now and slowly see if the amount of traffic will change on its own favoring one side. If so, one can be killed.

Hmmm,... That does sound better than a full merge. General Desire Z, General G2, Q&A?, Accessories, Dev, Themes/Apps, .... all under HTC Vision.

I'll edit my reply at our end too.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Just my opinion of course, and I respect everyone else's too, but aren't there a lot more "General" issues in common with both phones than unique ones ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] ddgarcia05:
Yeah, just like that. All their other Desire Z section is super slow.
[G2 and Desire Z General] marqi.k:
Full merge
[G2 and Desire Z General] sino8r:
I don't know if this is a good idea... people will be bricking phones left and right. For example, the Magic and the Wizard. The wizard has a G4 board and a G3 board. Caused a lot of bricks before they were seperated. The Magic has a 32a and 32b... never seperated and still causes bricks because of different SPLs. They should have been seperated. The G2/Desire Z have different bootloaders and a completely different framework. This could cause more trouble than convience. I still think the Magic should be seperated into 32a and 32b dev sections...
[G2 and Desire Z General] J-Hop2o6:
yea i rather have them separated and not merged since they do differ a bit from each other.. i don't wanna see extra confusion, and extra clutter.. TP2 was a different story.. only GSM & CDMA was separated (not by US/Euro).. and all roms were mostly WWE & one keyboard layout.. so u would have to fix it (via .cab) post-flash.
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
I vote full merge. And i have to say that the g2 q n a is always active.
[G2 and Desire Z General] blunted09:

[G2 and Desire Z General] ~~Tito~~:
Why didn't this happen with the HD2. . .
[G2 and Desire Z General] ddgarcia05:
Cuz everyone would have bricked their phone with the wrong radios and the difference in size.
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
Sorry but that's not right, the bootloaders don't need to be flashed to root/S-OFF your phone any more, using the gfree method. So there shouldn't be any bricking going on.

There is no different board on the G2 and DZ. You can flash exactly the same custom ROM, say Cyanogen, on both phones. No bricking.

The "framework" you refer to is in the ROM (assuming you're referring to HTC Sense), and that's the same with any phone, you can find stuff that won't work because you're running a different ROM (not because of a problem with the phone). But that's not a bricking issue.

This is the sort of misunderstanding that I think would be helped if the forums were merged.
[G2 and Desire Z General] crowstar:
Exactly, it's like saying 'I flashed a sense kernel on CM; It didn't work so we should split the forums :(

[G2 and Desire Z General] AbsolutZeroGI:
IMHO, a merge would be fine.

*The general and Q/A sections (DZ doesn't have a Q/A section?!) can be merged. It's pretty common practice to say what kind of phone, what ROM, etc that you're using anyway. If they poster doesn't say it, someone asks them, so I do not see that being a problem. Merge them.

*On the outside, these phones are identical. Accessories can be completely merged with no issues. Cases that work for DZ will work for G2 and vice versa.

*For the Dev section...well:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=857390

A thread in DZ that has a root method that works on G2

If something doesn't work on both phones, then it's not big deal to add the words "G2 ONLY" or "DZ ONLY" to the title so people don't try the wrong things on accident. If someone doesn't read the whole title, then they're stupid and deserve the consequences.

*Themes and Apps

Same reasoning as the dev section

A full merge is the best idea, then we'll have everyone on the same page as these are basically the same phone. I can't see a reason why we shouldn't that can't be fixed with simple logic.
