Hava player for android

I ahve a hava platinum HD it will "sling" video to like 1 internet connection and 2 locals (I think, dont hold me to these numbers) I know it takes more connections than the comperably priced slingbox, I got mine used on fleabay for like 50$ it would be nice to controll my 500+ channel 250 hours SA2 tivo hak'd to the ma'x, and Id love to serve it up to my g1 in a long line or anywhere else I get bored, which is often.
one exists for the maemo hildon nokia N800 so maybe it wouldnt be a difficult port, it would be very cool and these boxes unlike the sling are very cheap, if HD is just 50$ imagine the deals you could find on a standard def unit, Id also like to see an xbox port of the same player, but thats a whole other discussion board, as it is it streams to PC, smartphone by MS, and windows media and xbox360(i think) so the standard is there to be sniffed if that helps any...
bhang

im in the same boat. i got a hava player a few months back, streamed it great to my old dash. then i got the g1. monsoon said they wont even start to develop a player until they watch the android market for a while to gauge interest..

i hope sling is getting their app out soon.... the petition is only growing

cool Im not the only one
I looked at prices and specs of slings and havas and the hava seemed to be the hands down winner...
if hava wont do it maybe somebody will R.E. it and we will get a hava player for anything we want, thats the reason HAVA needs to do it before the demand gets big, or somebody will want to stream the hava to sumthin they have thats not supported and do it themselves...
that almost sounded like a threat, but it wasn't....
bhang
edit:
an xbox version would be nice too....

dont need it. just install orb onto your pc where you normally watch your hava, and install opera browser on your android device. Set the default stream to 3gp and you can download a stream file that is about 700mb. Works great on my droid, but unfortunately the default media player does not use the full screen. The audio and vid is still great quality and the orb interface (mycast.orb.com) has a great interface for choosing the station you want to stream. I prefer it to the virtual controller of hava actually.

Can you explain how orb changes the channel of the ricochet that's connected to the hava? Thanks

Has sold me on android for my next phone.
Now if WM7 gets Zune support...

I've had a Hava for around 2 years now, they say early next year, look for the app a year after that... They rarely hit target dates.

It's still a little rough around the edges, but it's great someone took it upon themselves to do this.

Thank you for this!!!! Just got my At&t Nexus and was thinking about my Hava player... I bought the app on my Iphone and loved it. This is going to be great... will install and give it a shot tonight. Assuming this works over 3G which will be a great advantage to the iphone player

TestTube Android HAVA Player
Search for TestTube on Market. I have a G1 and TestTube works great as a HAVA player on my phone. Setup was a little tricky. I had to port forward port 1778 on my router to my HAVA device. Other tricky piece of the setup was making sure I had the correct HAVA remote control code.

can not find the software anyplace....
Has anyone seen were it went to

I've been using testube for a while, using it for my titanium hd. I just heard that Monsoon Multimidea released the Vulkano app across many platforms and it's backwards compatible with the hava devices as well (not just the new vulkano devices). Its a free app, and though I havent used it yet, its seems just like what we've wanted.
Fellow iphone users have mentioned to me that the Vulkano app does infact work with the old hava devices.

Pandora is Coming!!

http://tomconrad.net/2009/06/16/pandora-for-android-its-coming/
Finally we will be able to share in the love.

oh ive been waiting since i got the phone.
One thing i hope doesnt happen. I had pandora on a winmo device and sound quality was horrible i hope thats not the case for us now.

I hope it comes soon. Just googled pandora,tried it,and now I love it. Does have a .jar of of a mobile version already out? I'd like to see if I can get that to work while i wait.

I think it does. youll have to do a seach on it though.

Hopefully it will stream ok on EDGE. Im excited about this one!!!!

Oh yummy. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve, can't wait to open pandora's box. One app I've been dying to get my hands on since I got a G1. Hack away at that jarfile.

Tell me why I should use this over Last.Fm
I have been using last.fm for a few years now, its the single best thing about XBMC. What does pandora do that last.fm does not?
Last.Fm bitrate is very clear and stable, android players take a bit to buffer but this is related to hardware not software. It has just about EVERYTHING I have ever searched for and I have searched for some little known punkrock bands.

The thing I hate about pandora on my friends iphone is the damn skip limit. When I showed him last.fm he was amazed I could skip tracks forever.

So what your saying is.... There is no reason to be excited at all. Unless you have never used last.fm that is.

If there's a skip limit I'll stick with last.fm, that's a deal killer so no thanks to this and eyemeem

don't overlook the most important aspect of Pandora...
The Music Genome Project, an ambitious attempt at mapping the things that have influenced the artists we all listen to. I've been exposed to great music I likely would not have heard had it not been for The MGP.

atleast last.fm works in the uk, just tried pandora website now and it says no longer available outside the US

Qik for Android now in the market

You can now stream video straight from your phone to the internet. Search for qik in the marketplace. This is the same video streaming app that is available on the iphone and it works like a charm. I dont think there is sound though, just images, anyone willing to check it out, im at work

Played with it some.. There is audio. Video quality is decent, speed is poor. Stuttered and stalled often too (streaming via WiFi to Qik, PC I was viewing on was wired to a different broadband connection and both links should have had more than enough bandwidth).
Looks fun - will try again in a few days, hopefully it's just bogged down today since it was just released to a new platform.
Oh, and lag ... I haven't used many webcam / streaming apps, but I had the impression they went faster than this usually.. Shortest lag was 10-15 seconds, typically the stream ran more like 30 - 90 sec behind. Again, looked cool enough that I'll give it a few days or so and try again.

testing it now......

Damn it i cant find it on the market.

Noone is being ungrateful. Someone offered a review of the app, just like anyone else would, unless you want to provide one yourself and sound like you're riding someones nutsack rather than giving a review. But that's just my opinion, just like you have yours. Good day

I'm very grateful for this free app. Better? Seriously, I wasn't trashing it - just giving honest feedback. And if you'd read it again, you see I'm making excuses for most of the bad things about the app (newly released to Android, their servers may have been busy -- plus it may need optimization).
Anyway, yeah - I know it's a phone. But it's got more horsepower and RAM than the first few PCs I owned, combined -- so I know firsthand there's enough power in this thing to do some awesome stuff. I get excited when I see an app like Qik that tries to push the envelope a bit. I hope they do get it optimized and working better.

Jrioni Aracde Full - MAME emulator on Android

This is the only MAME emulator I've found that supports the classic games. It emulates a GP2X game console which supports .34/.35b roms only. It doesn't seem to recognize the newer roms.
I can only find it by using the links on this page or scanning the QR Code with my phone.
http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-jrioni-jarcade-qCqA.aspx
I had to use my phone and scan the QR Code with the Barcode Scanner App to open the page in the MarketPlace. If anyone could provide a link, it would be great as the GTab doesn't have the resolution to scan the QR Code as well as being a PITA with only one camera.
UPDATE: Tried to use my phone to blowup the QR Code to scan it as the link wasn't working for the GTab for some reason. Got it to scan with Barcode Scanner, but it linked to the same page in the Marketplace. It didn't make a difference though. It seems there is still something missing from the Marketplace implementation on the GTab and this is after the last Marketplace hack involving changing the build.prop. Sideloading after downloading from a device that can use this like appears to be the only way to go to load this for now.
TigerMAME, which is found easily on Android Marketplace only supports Neo Geo/CPS1/CPS2 games.
Once purchased and installed, you need to wait for him to send you a code to unlock and activate the emulator. It took more than 24 hours, so be patient.
I was able to convert some roms to work with this using his instructions on his blog:
http://jrioni-arcade.blogspot.com/2009/09/howto-rom.html
Playing with WiiMote Keyboard works. You will need to UNCheck the WM Sideways option in the keyboard settings for the WiiMoteIME Settings. The emulator assumes you're turning it sideways. The Wiimote is difficult to play MAME with, looks like it's time to buy a Classic Controller Pro!

I wish it played the full set supported by GP2X, but it only works with about one third of the roms GP2X supports. I went through them all, since have full set for my Dingoo and PSP and used the app with G1, Droid and Incredible (probably one of the first people that bought his app in 2009).
Jioroni messed up, since this app and the PC Engine would have doen well, were it not for his code validation process. His efforts to prevent piracy actually has hurt him more than selling through the market straight.

Yeah I was a little put off by the piracy precautions as well. It's scary when you have only 24 hours to return it and it takes almost 2 days to get a code. I did reprocess the roms as he had outlined in his blog post and a lot of them were able to play successfully. I have some issues maybe you might know how to solve like the galaga missing ship exploding sound or sounds in donkey Kong. I know in the PC version there was a sample directory to address this is there something like this?

All common issues with MAME .34 & .35. Still young app back then.

This project appears abandoned. No activity on the blog since 2009, and though Jarcade shows up in the market, if I try to buy it, I get a server error.
Are there any emulators that play the early Mame games from the eighties?

I was actually surprised that mame doesn't exist for android. I want to play old-school 80's games and I think most would be perfect for android devices.

Perhaps it's beause while the code is available, it cannot be used commerically, so no monetay gain for the wouldbe developer. I installed the Android sdk + all the other required software, just to get a feel for what would be involved in porting mame. The NDK might provide some help using the existing C code, rather than converting everything to java, but at this point I'm still learning how to import existing java code into my test projects.
The other problem as I see it, is that Mame runs with the command line or a frontend. I may be able to get some code for a java frontend, but adding it to the project and connecting it is beyond my current limited abilities.
There's also the source code MAMEUI, which has a GUI. Written for windows tho

Yes it wouldn't have a monetary gain, but that hasn't stopped people previously from porting mame to everything under the sun. The one device I thought would have it for sure, doesn't.
And yes a front-end would be an issue and add development time, and so would an a control overlay. Someone needs to standardize some game development tools one thing being virtual controls so other game developers who need on screen controls can just place say an 8 way controller and two buttons. But that's another matter.
Well, I hope mame gets ported one day but if it hasn't already I don't think it's just around the corner.

I've been going through the Android SDK tutorials / layouts section and believe that creating a frontend may be the easiest part. Haven't yet learned how to pass values to from the Java frontend to the native C code, but I'm sure it's very possible.
The initial release of this theoretical MAME port could be without a control overlay. The user could use the navigation keys on their Android device if available, or something external like a wiimote.
Another thought is that perhaps MAME could be compiled for Android and launched via the command line in the Terminal emulator.

I've started a blog to document my efforts in bringing Mame to Android, and will be devoting most of my free time to this cause over the next few weeks. I'm sure it's just a matter of making the right connections in the dev tools.

Heytell works really well. Its similar to TIKL but can be used across phone platforms.
Soundhound works much better than shazam.

i've been trying to find a file sharing program similar to websharing that you have listed but the exact opposite. i want to view files on my pc with my phone ive tried all with no luck that i could find

Check out DropBox. It is pretty cool and might do what you want.

Spiderman HD and Stunt Jet Cars are two best games I played so far and they play and look more like PS2 games.

Oh and NewsRoom is the app that I use the most.You can read tech and other news feeds real eazy.

I haven't gotten it to work yet, but I think that VLC has some promise for streaming media.
DropBox is great for just sharing files.
As far as other stuff I've found...
If you are an MMO junkie, there is Pocket Legends of course to get your mobile fix. But to check in with your friends, Ventriloid (free Ventrilo client) is a MUST have.
Until Skype gets their act together, check out ooVoo - does great video chat and has a desktop client! The paid version lets you do up to 6 way video conferences.

PLEASE help me find these games

You really shouldn't mention being able to get apps for free. A paid app is paid to compensate the developer and even if you aren't directly to the pirated app you are supporting it which goes against everything these forums stand for.

It is illegal to post links to warez or paid for apps on this site. Asking or linking to apps that are paid for, for free is against the rules and will not be tolerated.

I'll have to try out newsroom I use Pulse for RSS feeds.
Need for Speed is great.. best racing game on this phone IMO,

To get orb to work over 3g (should already work over wifi) you will need to edit your RTSP Proxy Address one of two ways...
The first way requires that you know your MSL code for your phone... Enter ##DATA# into your dialer and you will be taken to a hidden menu, from there go in to Multimedia (or 'Edit->Others->Multimedia' if your on DK28 (or other Froyo)) and change the RTSP Address to 0.0.0.0
The second way requires that you have LauncherPro, ADW Ex (newest regular ADW might work too), or Any Cut installed on your phone. Just add a shortcut to one of your home screens and choose 'Activities->com.android.hiddenmenu->Multimedia(.Multimedia_Edit)' (as listed in DK28, may be slightly different in DI18)and then change your address as above. If your running ADW, you may need to choose Custom Shortcut, and click on Pick an activity to create the shortcut.

I've been using droidstreamer for a little over a week now. It does NOT have many vids. But, it does have full length movies and tv shows for streaming. It worked in 3g and 4g for me. And it's free . I usually just download shows and movies to my sd card and play through my video player though.
