browsertexting.com, works amazingly - TouchPad General

i used the site which let me see my contacts so i could text people from the touch pad browser using my android phone. it was quick worked quick. i could even respond with out issues. now if someone could turn this into an standalone app that would be amazing, that way we could incorporate a pop up feature. should not be hard if there is already a system in place.

Tablet Talk is for tablets, browsertexting for pc. There's a difference.

You are half correct. Tablet Talk is for tablets. Browsertexting is for internet browsers which both PC's and Tablets are capable of.
Seeing as this is under the HP Touchpad forum and the HP Touchpad is, in fact, a tablet I think my previous comment holds some merit.

it turns out windows live have the same feature as htc. The site can also track your phone and lock and erase phone. I think htc took the idea!
Well... I guess both of them got the idea from Apple's MobileMe. Although remote wipes could be performed on many smartphones before that (through Exchange Active Sync or the Blackberry whatever it's called service).
Still great that MS added this to Windows Live. Especially the possibility to let your phone ring if you're unable to find it will come handy - I "lose" my phone quite frequently in my own flat.
I think there was a rumor some few weeks ago saying the HTC devices will get an update with the HTCSence.com features, but nothing right now.

Hotspot hack..?

Looking through the menus on the ##778 on the rezound I noticed what was used on the incredible to "hack" into the hotspot capabilities of it. Can we use this for the rezound? as follows..
1. dial ##778 call.
2. edit view - enter password 000000
3. go to security sub menu
and here is where I'm a bit unsure and want to get some insight before trying it out....
4. S.IP DUNN User name
on the incredible for this step you enter [email protected]
on the LTE phones it should be (as it's duplicated above as your ppp user id
[email protected] OR would we stull use [email protected] and have access to this on 3G only?
Would this get us the bypass we need, or is this verification handled onboard with the SIM card?
Just thinking out loud here guys, all input welcome!
I would say try it and post your results
Nope, doesn't work

I used PDAnet all last week, it worked like a champ, great speeds as long as you have a 4g signal. No issues at all.
Oh, Win7.
Ever since I have had the tbolt, I have had Verizon's hotspot work without having it on my plan. I just figured it was promotional, was it not? It works on my rezound as well.

It was a promotional thing, but seems to have stuck to some accounts. One of my accounts still has it, not sure why. I pay for the unlimited hotspot as I am an employee, and I am not much for stealing, but not the line I am speaking of. Not sure what the rhyme or reason is, probably would remove it when changing devices so if you stick with devices that use regular 4G sim cards and not micro sims I would bet it will stick around until its audited off.
that's interesting that the promotion stuck to some accounts . I don't really think of it like stealing I suppose except in the sense that I'm taking advantage of an app Verizon included to be paid for *shrug*. Since I use an app like PDAnet or something else anyways it's not THAT big of a deal. It's just a lot easier to turn on tether and sit down at my computer, or ANY computer. rather than download an app on every pc I would use it on and physically plug in the phone everytime.. not that it would last more than an hour tethered without being plugged up or anything.
anyhow, so as of this point we're at VZ's whim for tethering?

[Q] Remote management of TF201

When I initially got and registered my Prime, I was referred to a web page where I could remotely manage and track my tablet. I tried it and really liked the options.
But whatever I do today, I cannot recall where this page is. Probably some dead Asus servers (most of the pages return HTTP error 500 today) help to that as well.
Do anyone has a record about this web page?
i never heard of an official Asus way of doing what you said. I'm interested in seeing this page you speak of. i know there are 3rd party apps that can do this but never heard of an Asus solution.

Are you talking about the "find my phone" type apps, or an app where you can see and control the Prime from your PC...
If it's the latter, I used to use www.mymobiler.com on my Win6.5 Phone. They now have an Android version, but you need to be rooted, and unfortunately, I'm not....so I can't really say anything about the Android version.

External 7" touchscreen driver for Atrix CarPC

Hello everyone. I have gone as far as I can go by myself, and I am looking for a little help to see if together we can get this working.
I have a Lilliput 669GL-70NP/C/T 7" touch screen that I want to try and get working over USB host. So far, all my attempts have been fruitless, but I think that it is possible. The touchscreen utilizes an eGalax driver to work, and I see from their web site here:
http://home.eeti.com.tw/web20/eGalaxTouchDriver/linuxDriver.htm
that they have created a linux driver for ARM devices. Based on what I have been able to determine, this means that I should be able to load the driver on android, but this is where I start getting in way over my head.
Does anyone know what I should be trying to get this to work? I also read that ICS has some form of touch input built in... should I be trying this on that? Right now I am running CM7. It seems to me like with a little work we could have external touchscreens for our Atrix!
Oh I forgot to mention, when I plug the touchscreen in, DMSG does register a USB HID input device as "eGalax Inc. USB TouchController"
CM7 also registers the handlers for the touchscreen as mouse1 and event10 when I run "cat /proc/bus/input/devices"
It seems like this is so close right out of the box! I'm trying my best to load the drivers now from terminal... we'll see how that goes.
Hope you get it sorted.

Wow, I really wish that I could help. I'm really just dropping in to show interest and wish you good luck.
That would be a really sweet way to almost have a padphone. Ever since I unboxed my lapdock I've said that it should have been a tabdock with a touchscreen instead.
I'll go back to lurking now...

Thanks, My idea here is to dump the phone to a mounted 7" screen in my car dash. I want to basically have a touch screen head unit with all the power android offers, and the unlimited data that AT&T is still reluctantly supplying.
As far as the project goes... I just tried on Joker's CM9 built with the exact same results... I was hoping maybe the rumors I had heard about ICS support were true, but not out of the box i suppose. As far as the drivers, I can not get the calibration / driver utility to run so far... and that's as far as I'm going to be able to go tonight.

lol nice timing. I was just logging in.
HDMI works great as is. However, I was looking to be able to provide input back to the phone. Otherwise, the phone still has to be front and center for controlling, which in my opinion kind of defeats the purpose of putting the screen there in the first place.
Basically you want to do like, vnc and pocket cloud, where you control your computer via smartphone but you wanna control the phone instead via touchscreen panel, that sounds like a pain in the ass!

Are you sure that the USB isn't just for passing touchscreen input back to a device? I mean, I know there are such things as USB monitors, but I don't think this is one of them, is what I'm saying -- I'm pretty sure you need to use both HDMI and USB for this to work.
Even if you could load the driver. Which you can. You still need to write some libs and script to get android on the screen. Good luck

Perhaps I need to clarify... The Lilliput 669 has a proprietary HDMI cable that breaks into HDMI and USB. I am not trying to send video and input over USB, just input. The HDMI part works as is. I plan on using both HDMI and USB in the final solution.

Yea me too! I have tried in vain to buy this. $189 AU is a little less than $200, which I would be perfectly ok with for a completely working bluetooth solution. However, I can't buy it. MP3car.com is working with the designer to bring the product to market, but they are still 4-8 weeks out, and there are some concerns that it may not be released at all. The designer's web site lists the product as out of stock.
I have tried to find somewhere else that I could buy it, or at least get schematics to build one, but it has been in vain. By the way, this has been re-branded as "Mimics for Android".
I had been wanting to do the same thing. The other day i just came across something that should be coming out end of the month android quadcore mini development board. so you could say use touch monitor and android OS i see they have bluetooth also so maybe phone could connect bluetooth to the android system in car. there isnt much more info on the board but it looks promising for an incar project its tiny. its called odroid-x http://www.hardkernel.com/renewal_2011/products/prdt_info.php
there was some other $100 range android cube thing i saw recently too that might be good. OUYA is name of it maybe XDA will have a section one day for these devices. could make for some good in-car systems much cheaper than indash receivers and more features.
Good luck to ya, keep us posted. I would kill for a solution like this. I would love to be able to implement this, with a fiber optic audio out to a DSP like the Zapco DSP6 or Audison BitOne.1 or the Helix C/P-DSP that is coming to market.

This all sounds good, and I have seen the OUYA... it looks impressive. However this will remove the phone ability if I go this route. I could just check out the android x86 project for that... I believe they already have this screen working actually. I've been trying to follow how they made that work.
I really want to stick with my atrix as the brain so that I retain the 3g connection without another $50 a month or losing unlimited internet.

Good luck, you'll need it.

OSP (On-Screen Phone)

Anybody else messing with OSP on the E970?
I was looking in LG Support and I found it. Its pretty nifty.
Here's a link to the Support site. Just click on the OSP tab and download it and follow the instructions. Its straight forward honestly.
http://www.lg.com/us/support-mobile/lg-E970
Awesome find! Gonna try it out.
Yeah. Its pretty nice. Cause I hook my phone up across the room to charge and k hop onto my laptop. Only thing though is you have to keep your device screen awake. Otherwise, when it shuts off you gotta wake it.

I've been trying to set it up yesterday through WiFi, but the OSP tool can't find my phone. They're obviously connected to the same router.
Is it true, that the screen has to be woken in order for the phone to be found? Cause that would ruin the whole osp approach for me a bit.
I've enabled the OSP access on the phone btw.
I never got mine to work via bluetooth or wifi, only via usb. I'd like mine to work wirelessly too!
I tried a couple vnc servers instead, but their built-in web clients were not very usable, I didn't have a vnc client installed at the time and didn't have time to mess around with it more, but I think that would work better.
In either case you do need to have the screen unlocked while you're USING it because they mirror what's going on on the screen, rather than just redirecting the screen completely to the virtual display. OSP would let you drag across the virtual screen like you would the physical screen to unlock it. I don't remember what happened with the vnc servers (I think they had a virtual lock/unlock button) but you can always disable the screen locking entirely.
Also, depending on what you need, airdroid might have enough functionality even without an actual screen display.
