Recently some of the system dumps from the upcoming Motorola Sholes/Tao/Droid hit the Developer community, and they have been trying to piece the puzzle together of what the Motorola Sholes/Tao/Droid is all about. We got our hands on a new app which looks like it will be front and center when the device finally hits the shelves, Motorola Phone Portal.
Those that remember using the Motorola Phone Tools app to hack their Motorola’s back in the day (I’m getting all “Ahmad – Back in the Day” about my v600, v810, and RAZR) will instantly recognize this little gem, but it’s been updated for Android and provides some pretty cool functionality. Basically, Motorola Phone Tools (MPP) serves as an all-in-one phone manager that allows users to easily view, edit, create, delete, and play their contacts, ringtones, photos, wallpaper, and media. The key difference now is, the app is web-based and you log into your phone from directly from your browser! No installing “modems” and drivers on your Windows machine (painful), just fire up the app and press the “Connect with Wi-Fi button. When you press the button, the app prompts you to either turn on Wi-Fi, or connect over USB. For this experiment, I chose Wi-Fi.
MPP lets you add/edit/delete/browse your contacts, photos, bookmarks, browser history, and media in an easy-to-use interface. Playing media directly from the device in the browser worked very well, and the picture viewer/slideshow feature is pretty damn cool. So with MPP you’ll be able to play/show-off your media anywhere from any browser. If Moto adds a Social/Sharing aspect to this, they will have a winner on their hands.
So there you have it kids, a little taste of what’s to come with the Sholes/Tao/Droid. The original Moto Phone Tools was a pretty handy app (when it worked), and the new MPP looks to be just as functional, if not more so. I am sure it will help a lot of users manage their contacts/media/content when it gets released, and the ability to do slideshows and play media from your device directly from your browser is pretty slick. I hope Moto adds more features and functionality to it as time goes on, but this seems like a sign of good things to come. Grab the .apk file below and play away!

This is a cool little phone manager app that works really well with Hero and G1. It's an app that runs a webserver from your phone that you can access over Wifi from any browser on the same network.
It allows you to:
* view/add media on your phone
* view your call log
* read and send sms from the browser
* and more!
Works with any OS - anything with a browser should work. Only works over wifi with Hero, no USB connection is possible it seems.
I replaced as much Motorola branding as I could and replaced it with HTC stuff to make it a nicer experience for HTC fanboys

Changelog
v2 - Changed more Moto references to HTC

Now if only this would let me control music playback.
Still, looks super, and nice to be able to manage over wi-fi instead of usb

You mean playback music on your pc from your phone? Hmm, I think it does allow that!
But I'm at work at the moment without wi-fi so can't confirm..

I think it lets you pull files, so you could listen on your pc, but I want to control my phone from my pc.
Basically, my stereo is the other side of my room from my desktop, and I'm lazy so if I could just play music from my pc, through the phone, into my amp, then I wouldn't have to get up
Also, I wonder if this means we can send files over wi-fi to web-enabled phones?

Have you tried it out yet? I can't give it another go until I'm home, but I thought that was possible. Look at the quote:
So with MPP you’ll be able to play/show-off your media anywhere from any browser.

You can certainly run a slideshow on your pc, from the photos on your phone. Pretty sure music is playable too. Give it a go
As for sending files, yes you can, but I think you might be restricted to media files.

How can I get it work with usb?

Not sure if that's possible, I was trying too. If you turn off wifi and try to connect it says it can connect over usb too, but I couldn't get it to connect. That might only work on a Motorola phone. Everything works over wifi though

That is awesome!!

This app is awesome!!!
Everyone should check it out!!!!
Nice work Pookie!

Cool, glad you like it!
I checked out the music thing, it lets you browse the music you have on your SD card, and you can click to play, but it plays the music on your phone instead of on the computer. That's what you wanted right Branwen?
Here's another screenshot:

Looks like a great app but I can't conect in my browser, anybody els having troble

Works Great good Job
Working really well looks good to well happy

I really can't think what could be causing it apart from some kind of issue with your network/ports/firewalls

For mine, at the initial setup it would not work at all when I clicked the start for wifi connection. It was only after I unplug my usb cable did it work...or I might had a huge lag.

Are you sure you're wifi is enabled?
Have you tried pinging the IP address from your PC's command prompt?
If you can't even ping it you'll know it's a firewall/port issue...

This was cool! Thanks for your effort!

im having the same issues in general with my hero: my laptop and the hero are connected to the same wifi network, both work fine, but they don't see each other. no ping, no ssh, no http no nothing. from my cable connected (to the wifi router) pc, everything works just splendid. i actually blame either my router (fritzbox, but some lowend version) or my laptop/ubuntu on my laptop for this behaviour, but i actually never investigated in that. whenever i want to connect from my laptop to my phone i hop via my pc, works fine.

It looks like quite a good contact manager also.
And yeah this is just what I wanted for music playback!

ChromeCast Linux + hacking

Hi all,
I'm going to start hacking on the ChromeCast... to boot or run a tiny Linux distro, and also to run homebrew apps without the necessity of the whitelisting process, etc. I'll be keeping a log of my work at chromecastdev.com. Collaboration is welcome.
The first thing I'm going to play with is trying to dump the bootloader (resides in the little NAND on the Marvell SOC?).
milesc

I wish you luck in your conquest!
Hopefully developers on this forum can do some cool stuff with Chromecast!

Port it to Raspberry Pi. *fingers crossed*
Wait, it's an enclosed system, how do you plan to snoop it?

Ethernet over HDMI or the USB port could provide a path. Also there is a header inside it looks like that isn't listed as a spec so it could be a serial/JTAG point. High hopes for this getting hacked and running an XBMC or Plex client, although I guess Plex web might be fine.

I don't know if you've already found it, but there are various source files available here. Bootloader sources are in the "sdk" repo. A cursory glance at them makes it seem like you can boot from a USB device by holding down the button on boot, but the image needs to be signed by Google.

any chance you can take some high-res photos of the pcb? The marvell chip isn't listed on the marvell website yet, would be great if we could find a block diagram.

I would sink porting Android would be the best step right now as this is an android forum and is younger brother ran android
Just my opinion.

Thanks tchebb!!! And here I thought I was finally going to have a reason to play with a logic analyzer to try to dump the bootloader off the bus.
Edit: Well, maybe it's not that simple after all. They didn't include everything... for instance, pin_settings.h is missing.

Yeah, the source doesn't seem to be in a buildable state. I was thinking there might be something like an Android repo manifest.xml to bring all those git repos together into one source tree, but I couldn't find anything like that. Also, like you said, there are lots of missing files referenced in the build scripts.
I found the link to the source after downloading the Chromecast app (my device hasn't arrived yet) and letting it scan and fail to find anything. It directed me here, which has the Google Code link in the "What's Under the Hood?" entry.
The other interesting documentation I found is here, specifically the part about pressing "Apps" seven times to enable developer mode (very reminiscent of dev mode on new Android versions). It's unclear whether that just exposes additional info in the desktop app or actually sends a packet to the Chromecast to enable some sort of on-device dev mode.
Once I get mine, the first thing I want to do is get a full packet capture of the setup and update process, and some sample network traffic generated by normal use.

The only thing that works for me is starting a youtube video from the Android youtube app.
No controls yet, it is not implemented.
Tab casting from Chrome spawns an empty chrome window.
Other Chromecast apps (Play Music) do not detect leapcast yet, or more precisely detects it but do not show the cast button.

Extra Settings on Chrome

I found some extra settings on the Chromecast extension for Chrome.
So I went to my Chrome extensions window and clicked "Options" for the Google Cast extension.
In the tab, I right clicked > Inspect Element.
I noticed that a section of the page had a "display: none;" so I removed that and got this:

Needs Reciever app?
Man I thought i was onto something with the whole URL for Flinging Command.
Apparently some have seen in the SDK that an example video using the big buck bunny video url could be casted. http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2332706&page=2
USER: vshah
the sample code, for example, simply passes this URL to chromecast to play "big buck bunny"
http://clips.vorwaerts-gmbh.de/VfE_html5.mp4
if smb shares are supported by chromecast, then i see no reason why it shouldn't work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also a great idea by user blackdogdeek
Forgive my possible ignorance, but couldn't you just run a web server on your smb box and give the URL of your local vid stash?
ie - pass http://192.168.1.10/public_html/vids/movie.mp4 to chromecast
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So we need to figure out how to initiate the fling command? Is there a receiver app in the SDK kit or something?
I'm a total noob when it comes to this but this has my jimmies rustled and i'm excited about the possibilities.

I posted about this 2 days ago:

Google SDK
Whitelisting Chrome apps
To permit your Chrome sender application to use the SDK, you must register the application's domain in the Google Cast extension for Chrome.
Be sure you are running Chrome version 28 or later.
If you haven't restarted Chrome in a while you may be running an older version; restarting will update Chrome automatically.
In the Chrome omnibox, enter chrome://extensions, and check the Developer mode checkbox to enable developer mode.
Install the Chrome extension for Google Cast.
On the Cast icon in Chrome's upper right corner, click four (4) times.
In the Cast extension, scroll to the Developer options.
In the Cast SDK additional domains field, click Add and enter the domain of your application, for example, "www.mydomain.com."
Code your application's HTML tag as follows:
<html data-cast-api-enabled=”true”>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I couldnt get the above to work but I found it in the options by removing the display:none from <section ng-show="doubleClicks > 1" style="">
So someone who gets "White Listed" could try sending a URL to the ChromeCast?
Edit: So someone can start making a webpage that uses this correctly and just add that domain to the Chromecast extensions whitelist?
see https://developers.google.com/cast/chrome_sender

Adding the domain is just a way of telling your extension that the domain is serving a chromecast receiver. They haven't opened the floodgates for developers so they are keep everything controlled, hence the whitelist process. You do "send" a URL to the chromecast but it's really just for the chrome extension to know that a websocket can be opened for the receiver site and the client (the chrome extension).

Someone else found the same thing and posted it on Reddit. Here's the link
Also note that the user Ranek520 said: "Unfortunately, none of those advanced options are actually hooked up. The JavaScript to store or load the values is removed for the release version of the extension. That's why the values are all blank.
Source: I wrote the max frame rate option."
So currently these options do nothing.

Nice find! Thanks!

Still, they are for a reason. I guess they are waiting for a future update to activate them, or may be some dormant hardware like LTE in Nexus 4.
Anyway, it opens the door to many possibilities...

Ugh I wish I could get this on Android. With certain variations of these settings, the connection is so much better on my Chromebook than it is on any of my android devices.

Thanks, very good

One possible solution for "No Cast devices found."

This weekend, while trying to cast a tab in Chrome, ran into the "No Cast devices found." issue that a number of people have complained about. Thankfully, I found a solution quickly and without much frustration.
In my case, I had been running a VPN connection using OpenVPN on a windows TAP adapter. Apparently, when the connection is active, and therefore the virtual adapter, the Chrome plugin gets confused and starts attempting to discover your Chromecast on the VPN adapter. Once I shut down the VPN tunnel, the Chromecast was successfully discovered.
So, in summary, if you run into this issue, and are running VPN tunnel(s) and/or virtual adapters in windows, try disconnecting or even disabling those virtual network adapters.
Hope this helps someone else out there!
See also my more in-depth howto: http://www.muchtall.com/2013/11/01/fix-for-chromecast-no-cast-devices-found/

In my case it was a firewall, sorted it out by adding a rule to allow local access both ways, with all protocols.
I think Chromecast uses UDP.

After that the Chrome browser detected the CC fine.
That was how I solved mine.

in my case it was not the antivirus
it was some kind of vpn because of the motherboard.
I had to go to windows device manager
and in "network adapters"
disable some virtual wifi miniport adaptes and also a bluetooth personal area network
after that it got detected in chrome

It's a stupid BUG I do have Hyper-V virtual switch ('cause I'm developing apps for Windows Phone), and damn Chromecast can't connect. Yes, disabling and removing all working network settings & virtual adapters will solve the problem, but it's not a solution.
Google MUST fix that bug 'cause there are lot of issues and people reporting the same problem!

Agreed. It's definitely an oversight to assume that the primary interface on the PC is the interface in which the Chromecast resides. The probably ought be doing discovery on all interfaces.

Tunnels/VPNs would definitely cause finding your Chromecast to fail. Disabling Hamachi, for whatever reason, resolved the issue on my laptop.

Chromecast and Netflix issue

Hi.
I'm currently on Eureka-Rom 1.1 and using unlocator to cast Netflix to my Chromecast, using my android device.
Everything is fine with some shows, but when I try to cast some of them it gives me an error message like "Sorry, this title is not available to watch instantly".
Why are some shows/movies working and others are not?
Would love some guidance on this matter,
Thanks

Okay. My issue is that every show can be seen on the device but as fast as I'm trying to cast, note, some of them to the chromecast I get this error message.
Still, some shows can be casted without issues but some can't.

It is because chromecast is using your local DNS and not your proxy. The does that ate not available are not available on your local area.

Hi Pemell,
I normally see this issue when the Netflix dns settings on the chromecast don't match that of the device (so the TV is unable to play the content the phone pushes or viceversa.
Are you using custom DNS services on either the chromecast or your control device?

Go to http://your_Chromecast's_IP_address
then go to the Settings tab, Disable Use DHCP (under DNS), click Apply, then set the DNS to one of the Unlocator options.

Exactly what Bhiga said, if you have any issues let us know - but you should see Unlocator as one of the options in the list (I use them too so I made sure they were there).

I've had this problem before with Unlocator on my roku. I think it's an Unlocator issue and not a chromecast issue. I used to have to restart Netflix all the time. Since switched to unotelly and it never happened again.
