Thanks debreezy I've done that but I'm wanting to be able to access my desktop/server and also be able to print from it if needed so as to have it fully integrated into my network.

I apologize... just used to the not so bright questions... I will give it a try... I have a wireless printer and print using motoprint... I'll try to disable the wireless features on the printer and try a few things... again I apologize... there's always motocast for documents and what not on your pc

It's ok I understand I'm pretty knowledgable in IT but get lost in alot of the jargon that is used on these boards so I try to keep my wording as simple as possible. I dont even know how to use the motocast and couldnt get my phone to connect with the motoprint feature. What did you do to get the motoprint to work?

Menu >settings >printer settings >add printer>find printer or You may have to use print shares... I mainly print pics which I just tap pic tap down arrow then print which should bring you to the printer settings my printers choose your printer and good to go... when I do print a doc its with quick office after composition menu scroll over tap print icon which should bring you to the printer settings my printers choose your printer and good to go... as far as motocast I used it on gb and haven't used it since ics ota...

Soft Data Cable from Market

Soft Data Cable from the Market is an awesome app to wirelessly tether your phone to your computer without mounting the SD card to the Computer. It's simple and easy to use and makes a great way to get rid of tethering to transfer, music, movies, files, or anything else you need to get back and forth. Create a shortcut on your desktop to the FTP address for one click access on the computer as well as the phone!
Ill give it a try.

...but it isn't compatible with wifi tethering apps (which is my only source of internet).

tried it out and works great. you can even browse in the root directory if you enable that option. my only problem was finding it in the market because it is listed as software data cable.
Sorry to bump, does this require, and will it work on a Transform?

Webcam over 3G?

I know there are apps out there that make your android phone into a webcam when on WIFI but is there one that will also allow it over 3G.
Basically allowing you to view it as anyother webcam, from anywhere over the web? And possibly use dyndns.org.
No sure if there is an app that would allow that and if there is I would like to have it tho.. but what I know is that this thread is in the wrong section....!!!

Pretty sure the app "Tango" Does this
I assume you've tried droidcam? I know I've used it to make my dinc a webcam for my laptop but that uses wifi.
Are you trying to use it as a computer webcam or doing video chat directly from the phone? The reason most require wifi is of the insanity that running the app through the tower ip and ports vs your personal wifi ports and local ip.

[Q] Airdroid

Hey, I don't know if any of you use airdroid to sync files via wifi, but I downloaded it because wifi file transfer quit working for me. However, this doesnt work either. My browser will say can't to server (have tried multiple browsers). I emailed support, but was wondering if any of you had some insight?
Adfree or adaway wouldn't effect this would they?
Thanks
AirDroid worked fine for me using the default port (and Chrome) . It's possible (and, I think, likely) that your router settings are blocking it in some way. Check those settings or change the port AirDroid uses.
Silly Question: Phone is connected to same wifi network and not using data connection, right?
I've also used File Expert's FTP share to transfer files a good bit. It works well and has an FTP client built-in so you can share between phones too.

I've been using samba filesharing without any issues from stock through revolt and now ginger 1.3. Definitely give it a shot.

lock device on boot

Hello, Im running a Malaysk ROM and I dont find a solution to lock the device on boot. For example requesting a PIN o similar way commonly used on the phones.
I booked a car park into airport for the next Saturday and they need to have car keys in order to could move the car. In that way, when they access the car, they also could access to the Radio so potentially they could read my email, calendar, chat and also using internet with my chrome saved password......
Any suggestion?
If you have your phone and are away from your car they have no access to its data. Maybe only your contacts if you uploaded them to the hu.

Yes but its not so hard to connect the radio to the park wifi or them phone tethering. Ty
Any answer on this?
Try Tasker with Secure Settings plugin. I've installed a switch in the ACC line and hidden it from view.

Has anyone tried tasker? It seems that you have to pay for this.

I use it on a mobile phone for something else, it's only £2.99 but is brilliant.
