Webcam app - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hi, does this phone have any native webcam program included? If not, what do you recomend for using the phone as a webcam, so i can make video calls on skype, live etc..

I think there is a webcam option when you connect the phone with usb

Tried that. It only works on live messenger. On skype 6.0 it didnt work. It could not find the video source. Must be a problem related to skype.
Tried all evening and also tried Ip webcam, but the driver didnt want to install on my windows xp, maybe win7 it could work.

I stumbled across this and I can confirm it works well on the Kaiser.
Dunno if anyone has seen this but here is the link.

nice find
would be a nice substitute if anyone doesn't like activesync
it's been around for a while...this will ensure others see it for sure. works well when you want to edit things on the phone using your keyboard (e.g., changing registry values). i've experienced stable some stability issues, meaning it will disconnect without warning and reconnecting usually requires me to disconnect and reconnect AS or WMDC.
any idea how to remove/stop this program? seems to start up magically and i cant figure out the trigger.

It doesn't synchronize anything though.
It just display your pda screen on your computer and allows you to control it.

It's in no way a substitute to AS
BTW, guys, read my review of the app in the local Wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...retty good, free (!) handheld controller tool
I installed it on my work laptop and it played havoc with my network connections.

android webcam! Developer help requested!

Is there any app out there that would allow me to use my magic, as a webcam..??
I have found a new one called qik... but this only posts videos to a site..
I need something that would appear on my pc as a webcam.
any chance someone cud develop something like this!?
You can test Qik (available on Market) or www.qik.com
It's not exactly a webcam but it's a live video from your phone

He actually tested QIK already. But that's is not exactly what he's looking for. I've been looking for this also, to use the phone USB connected to the PC as a webcam that you can configure in any IM software. I haven't found any way to do this, so it's more like a request for the devs!! don't know if it's not a big challenge for them, but there's a lot of threads asking for this.
A WiFi webcam would be nice instead of an USB one.
Can any developer help??
qik is fine but it does not do what I am after.
I need something that is recognised as a normal webcam.
Windows mobile has an app called mobiola that is a client and server type thing... with the server being installed on the pc, and the client on the phone.
Wifi connection would be good as well as usb.
Can a developer help??
so i would like this too. i did find this but its NOT for our phones
Motvik has recently released a product called WWIGO (Webcam Wherever You Go), it turns your Bluetooth enabled camera phone into a wireless webcam which can be used with any application on your computer.
its not for our phone but it shows that this has been done be for on another phone. so maybe some great coder could make a app for us
just thought i would share what i found.
bump!!!!!!1
Yeah this has been done before for Windows Mobile. I'm sure it'll get here eventually.
that would be cool, but the camera of magic is soooo bad... i'd rather buy a high quality webcam, they're not that expensive anymore.

On Screen Phone

Hi, does anyone ever succeed with LG On Screen Phone? i've installed all drivers including ADB ( with usb debugging both on and off method ) but it always fail to connect everytime after it asks to input the password (0-0-0-0). please help.
thnx!
i had problems at first but it was due to a driver problem. i use windows XP. i can use it both via usb and bluetooth, though much slower with BT but with USB the phone gets very hot as it's charging with too little power.
it's an awesome feature, like if your texting with someone you can write way faster, perfect when you're at work.
i've read about that some people had to use usb debug to make it work but i don't. make sure there's no yellow exlamation marks in the device manager, cause then some drivers aren't properly installed.

You could also try droid vnc server beta, its more like a remote desktop server but for the phone so its the same but it will go through wifi or 3g, i didnt get it to work but i think its because of my isp.

Hahaa I know, although I'm using mac in the office for some macos exclusive software but no thanx I prefer PC as main computer to do design job, moreover I have EIZO IPS monitor at my office and AOC IPS for my home PC so mac is not required.
Yeah osp is working now, thx man. But it has annoying bug, when I press power off button directly on the phone then powered on again to display lockscreen, osp won't update. So I must restart osp...
Unfortunately I don't have wifi on my computer so I can't try it. Maybe I'll test it at my office.

Mounting phone without HTC sync

Is there anyway to mount this phone as a mass storage device?. My work computer is very limited and locked down. With previous Samsung and apple phones I was always able to plug into my work pc and transfer over pictures because is mount the phone. Now I am not able to do that.
Any suggestions?

I think the only reason you need sync manager is the htc driver for Windows to recognize the phone. When I plugged mine in without it, I got the notification "device not recognized" but with it it said "installing driver" which then let me explore it like a drive. I'm sure you could find the driver somewhere on xda though if you can't install sync manager I'm not sure if you could install an external driver...
You could always just do Bluetooth transfer no?

I don't think that will work. I just don't get why HTC has to be difficult with this....

Does the computer not have Bluetooth or something? I ask because I transferred pictures to my PC by Bluetooth last week so I know it can work.
A bit OT, but unless it was jailbroken no apple product will let you drag pictures onto it like a usb drive. So I'm assuming yours was in which case you can bypass the need for a driver. Anyway, how about Dropbox? I use that frequently too and it works great for pictures (or anything really). Plus you don't have to install anything on the PC.

Ever since JellyBean, I have not been able to mount any Android device as Mass Storage, plus I read it has to do with the JellyBean system itself rather than the device. So in short, no, you cannot, unless there's a third party application for that.

Sorry if I'm missing some trick to airdroid, but in the above post Op said they could only access one website on the computer - I. E. The phone can't be paired because the computer won't accept the airdroid website, and there may not even be an identical wifi network from the sounds of it anyway.

Hmm.. sounds like a tricky situation.. Maybe the OP can create an ad-hoc network from the cell phone and use that to transfer files? I'm not sure if it'll work never tried it, just thinking out loud?

Possible, though I really doubt the computer could connect to an ad hoc wifi network based on the info so far. Without bluetooth I think you're out of luck for file transfer on that computer with the One...Except of course the old awkward standby: email
its easy. just install the all the htc sync stuff. drivers and all. then uninstall htc sync. on my computer it left the htc drivers on the computer and when i plug in it recognizes as an HTC one media device and i can browse the internal memory as if i was on ES file manager

[Q] Bluetooth PAN

Hello all,
I am on Zeus 1.1 and got stuck into a strange problem.
I am using a Mac with broken Wi-fi but Ethernet and Bluetooth.
MAC has Bluetooth PAN internet sharing and I set it to share.
But it doesnt see OB as a PAN device even its paired.
It only shows send or receive and browse files in OB (which works).
And yes there is pand in system/bin in OB.
Any idea?
You want to use internet from phone on a MAC via bluetooth ?.. you can't use USB tethering?

Hmm, I am yet to find a way to get PAN service in OB. Seems Android hide this services without any reason. Last time when I had Galaxy S (yeh obsolete) It had no PAN too.
What is strange that Bluetotth FTP is hidden for Windows/Linux too but same works flawlessly with OSX. Any experience with this?
