Bluetooth question - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I've searched around the board for a solution to this but no luck.I noticed that there is nothing in the menu to send files in the way of bluetooth. Does anybody know of a third party app that would add a bluetooth option to my share list?

Try bluetooth file transfer that works best

Bluetooth File Transfer
Bluetooth File Transfer
I just tried it and it works. May only work one way depending on the device you are connecting to.

Thanks fellas. I'll give it a shot. Can't wait for a stable kernel so we can cm 10 these awesome tablets.

It worked both ways between the Kindle & my laptop.

[Q] video files on dlna

hy guys
i don't know if is better write this problem here or in other section; i have posted here because i think that the dlna program on galaxy s is inside the rom of the phone and is not a 3th parts porgram that i can install later
in any case, i try to explane my problem and i hope to find any solution with you.
i don't understand why, i f i try to play some video files stored on my hard disk with this dlna service, with my galaxy, i can't reproduce them; i can find it, i can surf on my directory (i use the orb media as a server) but when i choose one file, i see "file not supported"..the strange is that..i see the same advise also if i try to reproduce a video files that before was in my phone.....
i don't understand why i have this problem; my idea, is use the tv out function of my galaxy to reproduce some video on my pc on my tv in bedroom, as a films or other without, all the times, disconnect my hard drive, connect it to the pc, load the file and remake the same operation...if one time i want to play a simple film or other materials that i have on my pc, why can't do that?
i'm waiting, if is possible, some solution or idea
merry Christmas and happy new year for all!

i am not sure but i think i read somwhere that dlna only works with windows media sharing
if you are using something like twonky or tversity it doesn't work
it is just a bad app
Ok.. Now i try to make the same with orb program and i can see the video correctly! I think that is as your idea a strange setting of this program., it will work only with Samsung tv..
Do you know if i can try for this operation some other programs?
Thanks for your reply!

I had the same problem,but in i a slightly different combination.
My PC acts as a DLNA server. Only the program named "Samsung PC share manager" solved the problem. You can install it on PC and share your video files via DLNA.

[Q] App to make your phone act like webcam?

Hi,
Is there any app that can be used to make your phone act like a webcam? For instance is there a way to use the phone's camera with skype to make video calls?
Yes loads lol have you searched the market?
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Yes I have and I found only one which is no longer developed.
P.S.
There are many apps in the market but they don't do what I want. As far as I see most of them make your phone stream content that you can watch from your browser, but so far I can't find a program that can use your phone for video calls with skype.
You tried IP Webcam by Pas? Its on the market, and works great. Best of all, its free.
There's also Droidcam, which has drivers for Linux and Windows. The paid version of it apparently can transmit sound, but only with Windows. I tried an older version with Linux and it worked well.
droid cam is a good shout, i use it and its easy to use.
Thanks guys.
I tried IP Webcam. It seems the program has the necessary feature, however I have to download third party drivers for windows, so will try it later.
Will check droid cam too.

[Q] Send the files from device to gear via bluetooth

Hi, Is there any way to send photos from a mobile phone need to watch?
I tried using "Bluetooth File Transfer", but I was unable to install to watch. Thanks for the tips
Not an option, I don't know why as it isn't be possible as apps are sent between the phone and watch, but it's only possible to transfer via USB at the moment.

Seek from the mobile app: samsung app gear
TransGear
It says you can transfer files via BT
Thanks and does not convert the image to a smaller resolution? I found a similar app, but that figure decreased to 320x320.

[Q] Problems casting

Does anyone else have a problem casting from the fire tablet? I've installed all necessary Google services and the playstore. They've updated automatically. I can cast using YouTube and Showtime Anytime with no problems since I am able to see my Chromecast devices when connecting. For some reason I cannot see my Chromecast devices when trying to cast from Netflix or HBO Go. I've reinstalled these apps but still not working. The Chromecast app is able to see the devices and connect to them with no problems.

netflix and hbo go do not allow casting from ro.device.manufacturer=Amazon in build.prop
change to at to amzn, or something else, and it should work fine

I imagine I will need root access to change the build.prop. Where can I find this file so that I can make the appropriate changes? Thanks!

I got Netflix working after editing the build prop but HBO Go will still not cast. The cast button won't even show up. Am I missing something? Is this the only line I have to edit in the build prop? Thanks!

Changing build.prop will not solve the cast problem ... but could bork the ROM necessitating a restore of FireOS to recover the device. Be careful what you mess with ...

remodroid on fire 10?

Hi,
I have a rooted Fire 10 HD that I would like to remote control from my mobile.
I thought remodroid could do the trick, but I cannot make it work.
On my mobile I can see an available connection on my fire, but when I try to connect nothing happens.
Has anybody been successful in using remodroid on the fire 10 or can recommend me another way to remote control this tablet (what I want is a way to change the volume and to select videos to play).
Many thanks!
