[Q] Something like LG On-screen phone for Xperias? - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there some software that mimics the LGOP and works with Sony phones? That program and its functionalities is one of the things I miss having on Xperia.

What? Bootanimation porting? What are you talking about?
I ask for a program that allows control of the phone from PC desktop and displays the contents of the display on my PC monitor.

Thank you, I'll give it a try. One question: does it work through USB connection?

G1 Webcam

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas how to turn the g1 camera into an actual webcam connected to your computer with a USB. I've tried the method of pulling images and streamlining them through ADB, framerate is terrible and just not fast enough. If anyone has any better methods or way of doing this lets get cracking and release something asap

He wants to connect it to his computer.
qik works great for that unless you want to stream to a site other than qik.
to clarify yes i get that he wants to use it as a regular webcam for something like stickam...etc, nothing out there to do that yet though.
exactly. I want to actually use it like you would a normal webcam. I dont want to stream to a server. I would rather have it stream to my computer and have applications handle displaying it. We would probably need to create a custom driver for that, but that shouldn't be too difficult if we can first find out a way to send more frames per second then I have a friend that can handle the driver issue.

Instead of suggesting an app that isn't doing what he asked for, why not say there is no app for that yet?

If that's true (and from the looks of it I guess it is) then that would be AWESOME!! ..do share with others how you managed to do that!!
Using screencast does work, but it still has an issue with low frames.
For this you need either Droidexplorer (which is what i am using) or Screencast, and the SDK setup.
Open screencast, turn phone camera on, screencast has a record feature.
More info on making this happen would be greatly appreciated!
i didnt use recording, it was streamed live, i cant remember on how to do it, i will have a look at my computer when i get home! and yes the frame rate is pretty poor but when i use the webcam i hardly move so its alright
ok so how to do it first of all let me tell you that you have to have the phone showing on the desktop because screencast shows your phone on your desktop and screencamera shows your desktop as a webcam so if you cant see it, screencamera cant see it!
1. you need to get screencast showing what is on your phone;
get it via:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558108
or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=557717
2. download and install screencamera:
http://www.pcwinsoft.com/ScreenCamera/download.asp
3. open screencast and put your phone on the camera application (you can still use the phone don't have to struggle doing it on the computer)
4. open screencamera
go into configuration and change the frame rate to what is appropriate to screencast, i think at the moment its 4fps
go to video output an change the frame size to what you like, i have it at 320 x 420 and have the phone set horizonally on screencast (by right clicking on screencast)
(make sure you have screencast where you want it as you will have to do this step again if you want to move it and make sure you can see it) click on "select region of desktop to capture" and highlight the screen of the camera
done, skype will now see it as that selected area of the desktop as a webcam i cannot confirm if any other application will see it but they should
I believe i was able to capture a livecast event with Video Lan player
Livecast is available for android I believe but i squite the same as quick.
Only livecast made wmv-files.
just tried qik, didn't like it because it didnt have a portrait mode.
wish somebody would make an app for this it would be so much more easyer
i dont like qik cause u have to go to there web site i want to be able to connect my g1 though aim or yahoo web cam

Its not like reverse vnc, its like, uh, vnc.
This website has all the stuff you need to get a vnc server running on your phone:
http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc/
Note: If you just run the fbvncserver, you can get a vnc server in VIEW ONLY mode. To get full interactive VNC, you need to run a kernel with their patch applied -- do not try to boot off their patched kernel, it is for emulator only. If you want to use their kernel patch, you must checkout the source code -- it comes with the patch file. Apply it to the applicable kernel source and boot off that.
I was looking for the same thing for my EVO. I found an app in the Market called "droid VNC Server" by Jose Pereira that allows you to remotely control your Android phone from a PC wirelessly. I tried it over WiFi and it worked flawlessly for me!
Here's a link to it on Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.onaips.vnc&feature=search_result
(Edit: Sorry, didn't realize this thread was from 2009 until after I hit submit. It was the top Google result for my search for a solution.)
thanks for the info..
it really helps...
some moderator like to lock old thread...if we reply to it..
but it actually helps sometimes..

Yeah, i second this too! I just tried a couple of popular ones like Remote Web Desktop by SmartDog and LazyDroid and none of those two worked. Only webkey worked perfectly!

Anyway to do this or something like this without any internet what so ever? I have no internet and would like to connect phone via USB. Then see screen on computer be able to use Mouse for touch and keyboard to type. Is it possible? Everything I see fails to mention you need to connect to internet to use it either by having DSL cable or tethering for you WiFi data. No internet options for me.

remote desktop server app for android?

hey. i've been looking for an app that acts as a server for the android display. basically you'd start it, connect via a web browser/vnc/whatever, and have access to the device itself, then be able to control via the mouse.
i found a few apps that allow you to remotely manage/access files and apps on the phone, but not one that actually puts the phone display in your pc.
ideas?
thanks!

[Q] Android remote control

Is it possible that doesn't exist a software for windows to control an Android device from desktop PC?? Android Screen Cast seems to be the one that works a bit, but not for every ROM (I have a Samsung I9000 with ICS ROM).
Also with Windows Mobile I was able to control my phone from my PC...Android seems to be far away for this purpose
I also tried other software, such as PicMe and others, but nothing...
Have you tried Airdroid?
Or is that not the type of app you were talking about?
I'm looking for a software that shows me the display of the phone. So I can control every thing from PC and not only some features.
Airdroid does just that
But it works only by wifi....I haven't wifi on my desktop pc in office...
edit: ok I logged in by usb teathering...I wil try this app...
Nothing, as I supposed it's not the app for me. It lets you to interact only with some features.
Pocket cloud and pocket cloud explorer both work over data connection too, although if the signal isn't good it may be a bit laggy

Iv been searching for the same thing for a long time now and couldnt find anything..I just stick to airdroid...think itsa the closest you going to get because at least u can view the screen and control some things...
Try this... It's a teamviewer Quicksupport app and it's free, might be just what you're looking for.
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.quicksupport.market.samsung
But why do you need this? can't you just take your phone out of your pocket to check it?
But Teamviewer only works controlling a pc with thr phone. I thibk he mean control the phone with the computer
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app
what your looking for is webkey.you can control you phone and see everything on the screen live from a pc or another android phone.And if you know what you are doing you can change icon and name of the apk and then install it as a system app to start when the phone turns on and runs throw 3g or WiFi.
