Does anyone know who the developer of the DOSBox port to android? I need to contact him to ask a question.
I installed aDOSBox on my android 2.3.4 rooted phone (LG Optimus q) and it installed fine. I then mounted the program folder I wanted but as soon as I run the program sDOSBox crashes. Funny thing is that on my Windows 7 laptop where I have DOSBox installed the identical program runs just fine. So, I need to find out how to trouble shoot the android port to make it work on my phone too. I think the crash is possibly a display resolution problem but do not know how to change that.
Any help appreciated.

Windows 8

Hi,
it's possibile to install Windows 8, with vmware or something like this, on note 2? or we can only use the infrastrutture client server, of vwmare client for android? Because i need to intall it, in local, for work...
Thanks in advance.
That's an ambitious wish, but the Note 2 has no x68 architecture, so no...
Windows 8 on Arm won't help either, without some serious porting efforts an besides that: you' d need the specific Arm arcitecture Vmware client too...
You can however use web-based clients to control hypervisors. There are many, not only Vmware...

No. Not possible. Windows 8 is x86 architecture. You will never be able to run it on ARM.
WinRT or WP8 may be possible, but extremely unlikely.
All you'll really be able to do is use an RDP client to connect to a real Windows 8 machine.
I second the RDP method: I use it myself (Remote Desktop Client, Xtralogic) and on the Note 2 with all that screen real estate, it's a breeze...
Combine it with a VPN (either builtin or download OpenVPN) and you are ready to go anywhere with it.

Use windows launcher.... lancher 8
Windows phone 8 for Galaxy Note II.
I heard a windows phone 8 rom for galaxy note2 is already available. Is this true ? Does this mean we can run windows phone 8 OS in the note 2. I am excited. ..
No!
(10 chars)
It isn't possible.
But....you can install windows8 launcher that fakes the appearence of windows 8. Search it on playstore.

Porting applications

Is it possible to port a silver light web application into an android app? How would one go about doing this?

I think there was some work done a while ago to port the Linux Silverlight alternative called Moonlight to Android. I don't think it got very far.
Moonlight is missing some things like DRM which Microsoft won't share (no surprise there) so things like Netflix won't work.

Would it be possible to port an silver light application to java and then to android?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
That I couldn't tell you. I would imagine you could just write it in Java or C# and make it Android native though

Full desktop?

Just wondering, is the current Ubuntu Touch supporting a full desktop when connected to a monitor like through an HDMI?
I saw videos from Ubuntu on this feature and wanted to know if it working?

It's not working yet. Canonical has proven that the concept can work by its Ubuntu for Android project. After the release of version 14.04 two weeks ago, they will start work on bringing Unity 8 (the desktop environment, current desktop version is 7 while the phone version is already Unity 8) and the Mir display server to the desktop. Afterwards, it should theoretically be possible to do that stuff. Additionally, they will continue to improve their SDK for the development of Ubuntu apps which already work on all platforms (phone, tablet and desktop) and adjust to screen size.
The whole concept is what they call Convergence.

Some of their ideas for convergence are quite awesome. The recent news has been that they have stopped the Ubuntu for Android project. I have been wondering since where their views on complete integration, their "one device to rule the all" direction, is heading.

It's great on both PC and mobile. However, on mobile it still has a long way to go until it reaches the state when it can be used by the average end-user. Keep in mind that it's making progress very fast though.

Video maker

Hi!
I need help! Seeking professional video editor. Sony Vegas, Pinnacle Studio ... etc.
I can not find things like that.
Thank you: Tamas
Dude, this is an Android device running an ARM processor. Even if would run with a x32 or x64 processor, there aren't such apps for this...
Get a Windows machine for that

He said "things" and mentioned a number of softwares after the ":"... Lastly, he posted on Themes and Apps section. That's why I said that...
