Hi,i have a HTC Touch Pro,i dont know the Slingplayer can work on the TP?Or it only work on the Sprint TP and ATT Fuze?Because I try to install the sling but it ask me the IP number,Port number and ID Finder.....I dont know where is it?Can sombody help me?And show me how to play it on the Touch Pro.Thanks...
yes it does work on the touch pro.
what i would do is this,
from your home computer (or any pc you have slingplayer installed) go to your slingbox configuration and copy and paste the Slingbox ID into a text file.
Then copy the text file to your devices storage card.
Open the file on your device and copy and paste it to slingplayer on your touch pro, enter your password and you are good to go
Save the file to your storage card incase you flash your rom in the future and have to reinstall again.
It works great...I also use the above method for brining over my slinbox id...except I have it as a note in outlook...that way after a hard reset it is synced over since I use Blackberry Connect...
Didn't work for me ...
That's funny as I couldn't get the slingplayer mobile app to work on my Fuze. I was even on the phone with their support goup and they couldn't do anything. Of course, they suggested that the phone wasn't on the supported devices list so this was their response when we couldn't get it working.
I'll try following the steps suggested above to see if if works for me. Simply putting the slingplayer mobile app on the phone and launching while synched didn't work.
EDIT: I followed the instructions mentioned above and the player launches. But it doesn't connect. Error = "Unable to connect to Slingbox". The Slingbox Alias is the same as on my laptop, as is the Finder ID. I have the "Use Admin Login" selected with the password. I have a non-traditional internet service where I am and I won't bore you with all the details, but if my laptop is able to connect and watch via the Slingplayer inside my home then I would expect the Fuze to be able to do the same via a wi-fi connection. But it's not working.
EDIT2: It's working now. I believe it was because I was logged onto the Slingplayer via Admin on the laptop and it wouldn't connect on the phone. Once I logged off the laptop and retried the Fuze, it was working. Sweet!
EDIT3: Sweet ... However, streaming image is pretty choppy. Don't recall this on the Tilt.
well if you put in the settings correctly there shouldn't be a problem. However, where are you trying this from. I know if i try to run it while synced with my computer at work, it won't locate properly due to the port being blocked. off of 3g it works just fine.

Are you running the Stock ROM? Because I upgraded to the fuze as well and didn't have those problems. Well at first I did when I was running the stock ROM. Afterwards I flash a Cooked ROM and it was much better. I believe AT&T does something to stop the stream because when I stream now using my Fuze via media net it will stop after about 2-3 min. and say signal is weak but I will have full Bars.

I'm using a cooked ROM (NATF v2.1). I wasn't sure if I was missing some streaming setting or something on the phone app, but it's definitely not smooth of crisp.
Any suggestions?
From the way the original question was asked, I kind of get the feeling that the OP thinks SlingPlayer is a standalone program and doesn't have a SlingBox.
Make sure you have proxies turned off... I think AT&T locked that feature on the stock ROM, but if you are using a cooked ROM then you can disable the proxy and all is well.
I have tried every possible combination and still yet to get my slingbox to run on 3g. Via wireless, everything is great, but each time I try via 3g I get the connections settings are wrong dialog box. On my old 8525, I had my slingbox working perfectly under My ISP (as opposed to wap settings), but I couldn't get those settings to work with my Fuze. Any suggestions? Still running stock rom.

I'm new to slingbox, but it's working for me. Try going back into setup using the same computer you installed it with. Rerun setup and make sure you enable internet access.
Yes it is properly set up as I can watch it via wireless connection, it's just I cannot get the 3g to work. MEdiaNet didn't work on my 8525 and I set up a new internet connection named "My ISP" which was not based on WAP settings. My slingplayer works perfectly via wifi.

Again, I'm new to SB, but I believe that when you watch it via wifi you are connecting locally, not through the internet. Internet viewing has to be specifically enabled. I had the same issue (after clearing proxy's on the phone) and rerunning setup on the SB and enabling internet sharing worked for me.
Just my .015
Long time Slingbox user - also having the same problem.
Details: Fuze with Elite Rom, Proxy off
Wifi works (both local wifi and remote wifi from office), 3g does not.
I can swap SIM card and it runs fine on 8525 with 3g, but Fuze will not connect unless running on Wifi.
So I can't help you, but at least you're not the only one with the problem!
Fuze with stock rom, proxy's cleared. Works for me.
I'm with Zachoo, I can watch via 3g or wifi on my 8525 to my Slingbox at home, but when I try to use my Fuze, only wifi works. When I try to use 3g I get the box saying cannot connect because my settings are incorrect. When you say to clear proxies, are you refering to Start>Programs>Tools>Proxy Manager>Diable Proxy or Restore Proxy ? Thanks for all your suggestions, but since my SB works on other phones, but not mine, I am sure the SB settings are correct.
check into NAFT rom thread, he has 3 diff .cab files to remove hidden att&t proxies, then it should run like my fuze.
ps: slingmedia really sux in fuze, can't get more than 15fps...

Just a word of caution about setting up Slingbox.... periodically, it seems to lose its router settings and need to be reconfigured for access over the internet. During these times, wifi access at home will continue to work. I have had this happen several times now.

Also, the slingbox listens on port 5001 on your home network so you'll need to open that port on your firewall or use a UPNP firewall.
I was able to install mine on my stock ATT ROM without changing any proxies that I am aware of. I am using the fully qualified domain name of my home network rather than the sling player ID number. If you're using a DynDNS like thing you may try FQDN instead.
Good luck..
New version out.

Go get it guys.
Sorry for those who wanted it of me earlier, I was not allowed to.
Hey guys so ive tried ever wireless tether app under the sun and none ever seem to work for me.
Im running Cyan's 4.01, PdaNet the wired version works flawlessly for me when i tether it to my computer, however done of the wireless ones EVER work for me, ive tried both aNetshare and the "Wireless Tether for Root" App that is floating around on the forums here, neither have ever worked for me
i have absolutely no problems connecting my computer to my G1 via wifi when using these programs, however the connection is always Peer to Peer and Local only, never internet and it never works
any ideas?
What OS are you trying to tether with?
Ensure your wifi network settings have DHCP set....
ALSO if you're wifi uses a NON-Microsoft Wifi settings software (e.g. Intel's or Broadcom) disable it and use the microsoft stack.
Are you trying to connect via Ad-hoc? Also are you using the WEP encryption? Does it give you any errors or just doesn't seem to connect?
The computer im connecting with is running Vista.
Im not using any form of WEP encryption is 100% open, it has no problems connecting peer to peer but the internet is inaccesible via tethering, it connects fine with no errors but it states local only with no internet access
Also as another side note, i use a program called SwiFTP which runs FTP via wifi so i can transfer file to and from my computer and G1 wirelessly , however that system never works, whenever i go to enable it, it says "Error Opening port, check your network connection" and the program does not work, ive tried changing different ports, i used the default port 2121 and it cannot open it, i also tried other random ones like 23 etc and it can never open a port or seem to work
Are you trying to connect via Ad-Hoc?
No, im using "Wireless Tether for Root Users" app downloaded off this forum
I think that is the problem. When you try to connect to the G1 on your computer, you have to set up the computer to connect via Ad-Hoc, not on the G1.
Not sure of the entire setup process, but go to the control panel and click on set up network connections (or something along that line) somewhere in the options of connection types there should be Ad-Hoc. You will have to enter the network name and confiure the WEP encryption, but it is pretty easy.
You should be able to figure it out from there. Let me know if you have any more problems.
access control option
have you checked the access control settings? if this is enabled, you have to manually allow the machines internet connection.
Hey, I had to apk's fo rthis the signed_andtether_1_52-pre2.apk did not work. The file labeled Signed_andtetehr_1_52.apk works everytime.
Firewall?
Sure your Vista Firewall is on? If so FORCE it off and try again...
I am posting this to help others who faced my problem. I have tried this on my galaxy tab running Froyo (Android 2.2) Build number FROYO.DDJK3.
Problem 1: Cannot connect to internet using corporate office Wifi. I could connect to internet from my home wifi network but not from my office wifi network. From office network I could only access emails, not internet.
Solution:
(A) Ask your company IT system admin to allow your MAC ID to access the internet. MAC address is found at Home--> Menu button--> Settings -->Wireless and Network-->WiFi Settings --> Menu button -->Advanced-->Mac address
(B) Find out if your company has a proxy server to access internet if yes, add in the details of “Proxy” and “Port”. These settings are available below MAC address mentioned in step (A) above
Problem 2:
Now I could access email and internet through browser, but apps (gmail, market, Samsung apps, etc) could not access internet. After some research I found that this was because the apps were still not using the proxy server to access the internet (even after entering the proxy and port details under the settings as above).
Solution: (A) Root your Galaxy Tab: I used z4root. Method is described in http://androidadvices.com/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-tab/ However, use the latest version of the z4root app, available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833953 (I used version V1.3.0). Since I didn’t want to mess about too much with my Tab, I only did a “temporary root”.
(B) With your Tab rooted, install TransProxy. I used Version 3.08 beta, available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=766569 Run TransProxy and enter your proxy server and port details.
That’s it. You’re Done. Now all my apps had access to internet‼
In the whole process there was no need to reboot. For good measure I only disabled and re-enabled Wifi and had internet access in email, browser and apps. The process was quite easy. I am not a developer or anything, I just researched a lot on the internet and thought it would be helpful if I put this down in one place.
I am posting this as it was a frustrating issue and I could see many people searching for a solution.
Note: I have not rebooted the tab and checked if the settings remain after reboot. Z4root says that if you temporary root, the tab stay rooted till the next reboot. Since I don’t really want to mess around
EDIT Just checked. On reboot, the Tab gets unrooted and Transproxy is not longer able to work. You will have to root again and then enable/disable transproxy. I have once again opted to "temporary root", as I don't see myself rebooting frequently.

You'd have much more luck in getting a response by posting in the HD2 forums and not this one!

Dave
thanks you so much
I finally got this working on my docomo galaxy tab with froyo build. In my case I used proxy type as http.

Sent from my GT-P1000
Hi all,
Need help! I have a GT P6200 and wifi is not working even after resetting it back to default. Its able to detect ssids but when Iam trying to connect using my home connection its just saying remembered and not connected.
I have a Droid 3, and have been trying a lot of different Wifi hotspot applications, but I'm having trouble finding one for my purpose.
I can't tether internet in my locale because my data here is analog only... the Wifi spot I want would only be to communicate between phone and another device.. say, my computer or tablet, in order to use Samba to share files.
My problem is that whenever I start any of these apps, the native application kicks into gear, boots network connectivity, and I never actually see the access point.
Will the native Motorola tethering app allow me to share files, or should I be using a different one?
No idea if this will help, but have you tried

Hi,
I have an un-rooted Galaxy (Froyo) and want to transfer its SIM to my trusted Nokia to make calls (for simple reliability and convenience reasons). I want to still use the Galaxy to connect to the 3G network, internet, get mail, use apps etc and want to do this over Bluetooth between devices. I can’t find a solution via forums or an app and suspect it isn’t possible (hope I'm wrong!). I’ve paired the 2 devices and set the Nokia to allow remote SIM access but still can't load web pages or get emails on the Galaxy. Can transfer files OK.
Has anyone done something similar or know how I can get this setup working?
ie. Galaxy S GT- I9000 with no SIM, connecting to the internet via Optus 3G Nokia 6220c phone.
