Ok.. got vnc server written by XDA user onaips to work on the NC
Make sure you install Busybox before you run it. IT WILL NOT WORK without it.
If you haven't installed Android Market, go and look the threads and install that.
Search for busybox, download and RUN it to install busybox.
Now in the Market search for "droid vnc server"
download and install onaips app. onaips app checks for busybox & will prompt you if you havent installed it.
I recommend to do a quick reset and run droidVNCserver app. works like a charm
The only drawback is that it shows nook portrait mode in landscape. if you turn it around it works ok... hmmmm.. what gives..
see the thumbnail
Does this let you see the Nook on your desktop? Or your Desktop on your Nook?
To clarify,, this is VNC server for the nook, so that you can access/see your nook from the desktop.
I was able to connect to my nook from Ubuntu but, it acted like it was a view-only VNC session. I was unable to actuate any button-presses, etc.

Same problem here, but I am connecting from a Windows XP.
So rather than install this on my nook, I installed it on my phone, and installed wyse pocket cloud on my nook to log into my phone's screen. This let me connect to my phone so I can manage access control in tethering, as well as send texts and such. This will be really handy.

I haven't been able to get wyse pocketcloud to work on my NC! I'm not sure what the issue is. What method were you using? I was trying to use the google log-in method, which worked for my phone to computer. Being able to access my phone would be interesting for said reasons.
Has anyone managed to get this to work with Safari? It's a mild annoyance that when I want to use Kies Air I have to use Firefox instead of my go-to browser (Safari). Does anyone know if there is a simple setting/url change that I can use that will enable Safari to work with it? I'm running on OS X if that makes any difference.
Thanks.
I use Safari. Seems fine to me. What problem are you having?
Safari can’t connect to the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://1**.1**.1.6*:****/” because Safari can’t connect to the server “1**.1**.1.6*”.
(no idea if I need to censor that out, thought it would be safer).
Can you try without putting http://? I never entered that, just the number.

No need to censor those are local ips no risks.
It automatically adds the http:// to it after I press enter.
Weird. Is the number you entered is the same on your phone? Well, if you still unable to open I guess you've to use Firefox. Might have to wait some pro to solve it. haha
Yeah, double checked. It's weird that it works on FF. Maybe there's some setting enabled on Safari that's stopping it from working?
If you click on Safari > About Safari, what version are you using? Also, if you go to preferences > Advanced > Proxies > Change settings, do you have any of the options checked? Those are the only things I can think of that might make a difference.
Mine is 5.05.. Only Auto proxy check. Hmm...
all same here. I'm fresh out of ideas!
when you enter the url into your browser, and get the "cant connect" error, try restarting the phone. happened ot me as well and fixed it. same happened with my SG1, used an app called wifi explorer which was also to explore phone files wirelessly and had to just restart my phone after using app for the first time too.
Kies Air - Fix
I had this same problem, watched Kies connect once, but never connected again, kept stalling. Tried Mozilla, Chrome and Explorer, all with the same result. Then I noticed lots of Java icons stacked up in the taskbar, and under closer inspection, lots of instances of java started in the task manager.
Turns out the problem is the Java cache on your PC, it doesn't clear after you drop the connection, and prevents further re-connection attempts. Uninstall the Java on your PC and it all works fine. Not sure what you need to do if Java is essential to you.
Turns out the problem is specific to Java 6.24 and if you roll back to 6.23 it will be working again
Several years ago, I was able to control my blackberry from my PC desktop. I would plug my BB into the C through usb, and could control every aspect of my BB from my PC. It was really nice for typing texts, reading emails, ect, while at work. I received an email from the company that had the software a couple months ago that they were about to release their software for android, but lost the email. Any options? I want to connect via usb, not wifi, bluetooth...
Google "my phone explorer" for PC client and look the play store for the app, works over usb, bluetooth and wifi.
It's useful, free and the PC client has an option to be portable so after 1st setup you could move it to a flash drive and use it in any other PC with no hassle

Hi, i recommend you "Air droid" is free and a good one app. I don't know if u could use it with an USB cable but with WiFi is like having your razr in your web browser. And you could do all those stuff

Please note: Adding Bookmarks is much easier if using the later ver's of Xbrowser which have the User resync facility in the User profile section. I was initially using an old 2.4.7 version which had no resync.
Hi,
Recently I got the Amazfit Pace English ROM version , I think this smartwatch is one of the best out there and has the ideal screen for outdoors. After a few days I ventured further and used the below easy method to install some apps
https://www.smartwatchspecifications.com/install-android-apk-apps-amazfit-pace/
I downloaded the Xbrowser app and used the below Pace Tuner app to switch on the wifi;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/tool-amazfit-pace-tuner-windows-apk-t3774967
The problem I have is that because the Amazfit screen is so small I have no way of saving any new Bookmarks. When I use Xbrowser on my phone the screen is large enough to display the OK buttoon to save the bookmark.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1utVduvfw_hC13IVzdMMfLLK47hUfMUiw
But when I use the Amazfi, the OK button is below the screen and I cant find anyway to navigate to the bottom of the screen.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=10YJ-KWIWH_M7hj2gn2d_CUZBe1Lc65Ki
Within Xbrowser Settings I enabled the "Support touch screen page down or up", but this has had no affect.
Another way I thought would be to use my phone to create any new bookmarks and then update the watch using export and import from within the Xbrowser app. But although the export works fine when I try import the Amazfit is unable to find a file explorer app and then Xbrowser crashes.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NO-hewWQeiSytOwL-fGGKCGY6dzPTqmz
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1AqTRJi2bIRWl37y-cmP88yLpYlJJQsuy
Have also installed a file browser app and get same problem where Xbrowser crashes.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Tw8bAsRsVIjgSxZOUk0tMIz5_cTYQ8aB
One clue is that when I try the import on the phone I get the "complete action using" message.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1OsH0FBTfe9BFtarohZaNQ9aWGD2UdaR6
I think the problem is that the amazfit has no default file browser and has no option to offer the "complete action using" link and so fails.
Any help or further suggestions appreciated.
Exactly, the Android 5.1 version used in Pace is mostly crippled so it doesn't have a document manager (to pick files) nor a download manager. Your better chance is using synchronisation using an account inside XBrowser. Besides that, if the only problem is the small screen, I do this to temporary change screen resolution to be able to fix things on watch using adb and watch connected to USB on computer:
Code:
adb shell wm size 640x600
adb shell wm density 120
Go back using:
Code:
adb shell wm size reset
adb shell wm density reset
It doesn't require root. Launcher will crash, but don't worry. After you go back to normal, restart watch or some things may get a bit wonky.

Many thanks, yea I thought about trying the user sync from inside Xbrowser but the trimmed down Watch app has no User profile settings so another dead end. But I'll try your idea of using adb to change the screen size and maybe that will get me going. Cheers,
Update:
All sorted, I found 640x600 a bit small so went with 400x375 & density of 150.
thanks

"Trimmed down" watch app? What XBrowser are you using? I simply installed the same one I see on Play Store, just changed some configs on watch so it will go full screen (no bars) when scrolling pages.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mmbox.xbrowser.pro
Have you tried just making an "internet shortcut" (in windows just drag a link into a folder) putting that shortcut on the watch and using a file browser to "launch" it?
I haven't yet, but I'm gonna go try it now
Edit: Android does not recognise .URL files correctly, oh well

That's even better, I was using an old 2.4.7 version. I've just removed the old and installed the newer 2.5.5 version whch installed fine and it now has the "User profile" section. Ran the Sync and my bookmarks have arrive on the Amazfit. Thanks guys for all your help and hope others may find this useful
Do not worry, this is not the old TicSystem trick - this is better
/!\ Only for TicWatch Users /!\
Hello,
While attempting to change my Wear OS accent color via ADB, I discovered a way to speed up the watch around 2.5 times (measurements done lazily, could be wrong. Still makes it faster, though.) - It does not cripple the watch at all (I have not tested battery life)
While everyone knows the one with disabling TicSystem (for you curious souls, it does not cripple the watch at all), I believe I may be the first one to do this. It revolves around Mobvoi's Wear OS overlay. Doing this trick made my watch really fast. The watch is around 2.5 times more responsive now and no matter what I do, I can not get the watch performance to slow, as it normally would.
It runs even better if you disable TicSystem too (Bottom power menu - you can literally use the top power menu instead, if you remove TicSystem)
Here is a step by step instructional tutorial:
1.) Enable Developer Options
---
2.) Disable All Animations (you can enable those again later)
---
3.) Enable ADB Debugging
---
4.) Hook your Watch up to your computer with ADB and all that stuff (I really do not want to go in depth on how to hook up your watch to your PC, You can google that)
---
5.) Type "adb devices" to connect your watch and start daemon
---
6.) Type "adb shell cmd overlay list"
---
7.) If there is a com.mobvoi.ticwatch.jupiter.home (or something containing the same words in a different order) continue with this guide. If there is not, leave this guide
---
8.) Type "adb shell cmd overlay disable com.mobvoi.ticwatch.jupiter.home"
(or however else your overlay is called)
---
9.) Type "adb reboot"
to reboot the watch
---
OPTIONAL 10. Enable animations again)
---
That is it, the watch now runs very much faster without any usability difference. To be honest, I am still not exactly sure why it works, but it works.
I have been doing a lot of testing and I just can not find anything that went wrong when I disabled it. There simply seems to be nothing. Everything works.
If some issue does come up, please let me know. Also, if there is an issue, you can just reproduce all the steps here, but replace the command in step #8 with "adb shell cmd overlay enable com.mobvoi.ticwatch.jupiter.home"
(Also, if any other fellow android developers are reading this, please help me understand why in the world uninstalling the package itself slows the watch down again. I have been scratching my head at this for a while now. Maybe it is placebo?)
(Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage to your watch. Even if this is unlikely to cause any damage, you are responsible for anything that might happen)
I don't have those mobvoi overlay, only google's
Code:
com.google.android.gms
[x] com.google.android.wearable.overlay.gms
com.google.android.wearable.app
[x] com.google.android.wearable.overlay.home
I don't feel lag actually since the first I use ticwatch E, of course after disable most system app. The latest change only to disable ticsystem which render the battery life longer, approx 20%.
You most likely just disabled the Jupiter home app. This guide is directed at people, who do not want to get rid of the whole Mobvoi experience, but still want a faster watch
I only disabled these
com.mobvoi.companion.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.account.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.fitness.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.health.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.heartrate.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.social.aw
com.mobvoi.wear.system.aw
It seems the jupiter home app only available in ticwatch pro, not in my ticwatch e.
Thanks for the sharing.
with your method. i lost esential mode
Clarification
I am just adding an update here.
There is no correlation between essential mode and the Jupiter app. The person who said this was simply making it up.
Thank you.

Confirmed.
I can't seem to find mobvoi overlay on my ticwatch S
In something unrelated, I wanted to ask if anyone could share the latest ticpulse apk, as my one doesn't update through the play store anymore
I've deleted all from com.mobvoi packages, and lost essential mode/second screen with always on display on TicWatch PRO3. Anyone konw how's called a packgage which controls essential/second screen.
Thanks
Tried on Ticwatch pro 3 GPS - significant change in responsiveness! Thank you
On my Ticwatch Pro 3 GPS there is no option to switch on ADB over WiFi.....only via Bluetooth.
Where did you find it?

First enable developer options. Then you should see.
Developer options are enabled in settings/system/information/build version. You have to tap on build version 5 times or more.
I know and I did it. But there is no option for this.....
There only is a switch for ADB-Debugging and another for Debugging over bluetooth.
Thats weird. Never the less, why don't you try to do it via bluetooth?
How to do this?

did you use the charger cable to run the commands via pc or over wifi? because when i do that my pc only charges the watch , i can't see it under adb devices. thanks.
Thanks man, definitely faster now
Good find, but this doesnt need dev options nor ADB. Goto Settings > Apps and Notifications > App Info > System Apps; find com.mobvoi.ticwatch.jupiter.home and disable it there.

After disabling com.mobvoi.ticwatch.jupiter.home via adb, a restart resulted in it enabled again. Maybe i did something wrong this way?
Following quoted method was permanent after restart.
