Touch HD as webcam? - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Just wondered if there are any programs that allow you to use the Touch HD as a webcam?

Webcamera Plus works really well with mine!

The best bit of software I have found so far for this job is a program thats free called 'TinyCAM', its AMAZING! it has its own webserver and can detect motion and upload images to an FTP server etc
You can use its feed with WebcamXP I think too
Cons: no sound

Try "Mobiola Web Camera for Windows Mobile"
Google it.

Skyfire For Htc Touch Hd

Hello,
I just wanted to know if skyfire will work on the htc touch hd. Has anyone managed to get it working on their Touch HD. I installed it but get the usual windows error message, i.e it doesn't work on mine. Does it work on yours?
If you do manage to get it working, can you please check if bbc iplayer works on it fully with sound. i read somewhere on this forum that they got it working on their Mobile device but bbc iplayers sound did not work. this will be the best browser to go on bbc iplayer and watch other videos.
Please someone reply.
p.s I got so happy that this will work on the HD, but it doesn't. apparently there isn't a skin that supports the HD's screen. here's the website: http://get.skyfire.com/
Windows Mobile phones: Skyfire runs on Microsoft Windows 5, 6, and 6.1. We support VGA and QVGA screen resolutions. Skyfire runs on many popular Windows Mobile phones including the HTC Tilt, HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Fuze, Motorola Q and Q9, Palm Pro, Palm 800W and Samsung Blackjack II. To check if your phone is compatible with our OS and resolution requirements, please refer to the Microsoft website.
Skyfire will not run on Windows Mobile PDAs. Skyfire runs on phones only.
Skyfire will not run on WVGA Windows Mobile phones.
Skyfire will run on Wi-Fi, however a data plan is recommended.

We must wait a fixed version ;-)
huh, when did they add vga compatibility?? I checked over a month ago and it ran like crap on my Diamond... now I sold the Diamond and got the HD, effectively pushing my self back in the waiting line
Use W VGA Fix 2
->> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442426
i've tried too but resolution of the the hd is bigger ...skyf for smaller rezs...
Current releases are not working with the HD... we have to wait, just that!
p.s: anyway this browser looks promising so much!
Many thanks! Works with W VGA FIX 2...
Although to switch back to regular resolution I found you have to use task manager to close the app and restart.
Doesn't work for me.
How did you get SkyFire to work on HD. Ive installed fix2 and the certificate that came with it. When I try to run SkyFire i just get..
'Skyfire only supports screen size widths/heights of 240,320,480 or 640.
Desperate to get iplayer, if not this solution then the other 'new' thread looks hopeful
Thanks you guys, I'm out of my depth but following your lead!
ashleyp,
install wvga fix 2 cab. That puts a new program in your program list. Find the program called VModeSwitch, run it and change screen res to 640x480. Then run skyfire.
Works many thanks
Now need to try iplayer when at home on my wifi network.

Confirmed that this works 100% perfectly using VModeSwitch.
However, VModeSwitch rotates the screen, you may not want this. I use AEButtonPlus and assigned a long press key to rotate the screen clockwise, in which case VModeSwitch becomes responsive again and I do not have to kill it in the task manager.
The problem is VModeSwitch does nothing until you switch out of it. If you don't want to use AEButton, simply press the home hardkey on your HD after switching resolution, because then the screen goes back to Manila which instantly forces the screen back into portrait mode (but still VGA res). After this, VModeSwitch will work again when you get it from the tasks window and your screen is portrait VGA after which skyfire works 100% perfect.
VGA resolution?
Does the latest Skyfire (with VGA support) actually run at full 640x480 resolution or is it just stretch the pixels for the HD, as though the HD were running at 320x240?
opera
tried it, i think i will just stick with Opera until they fix the vga problem.

Very wise.
I cant understand why people go to such trouble to get a browser to work.
some of us need to monitor pages which display info using fash, I think Skyfire is the only option, right?
Never heard of Flash Lite? Works with Opera and IMO Opera is the best browsing solution anyway. On the other hand Netfront 3.5 Concept works like a charm on the HD for pages that don't display correctly with Opera. Give it a shot, it's free
Okay, I've installed the adobe version for my HD... tell me why we need this horrible looking SkyFire then? I've uninstalled it and the other bits and peices I needed to make it work.

What have you installed?
Adobe version of what?
Can you please explain?
Thanks
Sorry, I went looking for Flash Lite and found a thread with 2 versions, Flash Lite (didn't work for me) and an adobe version of flash lite (I think) which worked. I can now see the flash content on my fantasy football page
I thought SkyFire was a horrible looking browser and just wondered why everyone wants it if Opera can show flash content?

ORB

Hi Guys,
Just downloaded and installed ORB. Brilliant piece of software. Only problem being im not a techno whizz so im struggling a bit. Is the only way i can gain acces to my pc from my touch hd by using opera and opening up the orb site?
Thanks
Nichio
yes
You can ad to favorites www.mycast.orb.com
Then you don't have to type your password all the time.
It's indeed a great piece of software.
I'm streaming my satelite from home on it
Also music or movies(even vob files) he plays.
regards stef
Thanks Stef. I have already done that, just didnt know if any of the genius techies on here had came up with some kind of App if its possible.
Thanks Nichio
I am now looking into connecting my sky box to my. once i have done that would it be possible to stream that to my touch hd?
if it has an ethernet and it can stream ike my dreambox,then yes you can stream.
Open notpad and make an line with your sky box/drea,box ipadres like this 192.168.1.10/video.m3u and save it to anyname.mp4
The configure orb.
and add that mp4(video)file.
regards stef
Great Thanks.
I have another problem with orb now. i installed it and all was fine. How ever first time i tried to reboot my compter i am now missing a windows system config file. Anyway around this?
Nichio
I used Orb for a while but found it was caining my cpu randomly so had to remove it. I'm now using TVersity. The interface isn't as cool but when browsing from you mobile it's perfect cos you don't have to render loads of graphics etc. The only thing about TVersity is that you need to open ports on your router and use something like dyndns if you've not got a static wan ip.
What I liked the most was that you don't need to go through a third party website to access you stuff. I also use it to access music on my PC from my Wii.

Remote PC

So, the note pro 12.2 is supposed to have a remote PC access app, and I am curious how it works.
I have a high end gaming laptop, and while I do not anticipate accessing my laptop and playing Battlefield 4 or Arkham Origins on it, I would like to do some RTS like Coassacks or Rise of Nations remotely.
The ability to have real time PC like access to such games is leaning me toward the possibility of buying a Surface Pro 2.
For most everything else I like the Notes. I just miss having the games like I can have on windows.
Has anyone tried out the remote PC access app?

Yes, I tried it and it works remarkably well. The response is good and you'll be able to do some basic tasks on the PC without any hassle. Didn't try graphic intensive apps like games though.
Does RemotePC work over different networks (can I access my home computer from a coffee shop)? And any comment on how RemotePC compares to other Remote Desktop apps (specifically Jump Desktop)?
Also is there any pressure sensitivity support in RemotePC?
Thank you
Full screen games will not work. You could try splashtop instead

yes you can, if you leave your PC open. TeamViewer is very good also, but dunno witch one is better...
Does nobody know about Splashtop? It actually even has gaming support. I used to play Dragon Age on my TF700T through it. (but I do recall something about a monthly fee.)
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk 2
I cannot say much for splashtop since I have not used it, however teamviewer is excellent for getting to your desktop from anywhere, I have used it for months and it's always there and always works. If you have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse you basically have a 12 inch laptop with great battery life.
I would however look into other options for gaming, since by default teamviewer will always route outside of your local network unless configured not to, and this causes some delay determined by the quality of the connection between you and the desktop.
If you use Google Chrome for your browser on your PC then, you can use Chrome Remote Desktop from any Android Device or Chrome Browser. It probably would not work for games but it works great for anything I have used it for plus it is free.
@up
You're right, Google Remote Desktop seems to be working great, the performance is outstanding when compared to other products, including Samsung's Remote PC.
However, there is a seriuos con. Google Product does not support neither S-Pen nor touchscreen input on the remote device, only touch <-> mouse emulation. In result, using it on such a tablet as ours isn't very comfortable, even if there are no performance issues.
ATM Samsung's Remote PC works too sluggish for me, even on a stable connections. Plus, more than one PC cannot be connected for free. Hope Google will add functionality of real touch input emulation soon.
I use the RD that came installed with the tablet and as said previously it works pretty well. Of course is best for office applications maybe not for games.
Teamviewer worked surprisingly well, played latest Civilization on my note pro with a BT-mouse and pretty bad wifi on a hotell a couple of months ago.
I too use Google Remote Desktop. I have it on my Desktop and Laptop and it works perfectly for my needs.
I used Microsoft RD client, it has good support of mouse and keyboard, using the s-pen as a mouse is great. Not for games though

This is the perfect setup for one of my PCs running Windows 8. It's almost seamless and works great with the touch controls.
I used Microsoft RD at my old job site. It was fantastic to remoting in for quick tech jobs/scripts that needed to be pushed out to specific clients or to pull something over to the sharepoint that was stored on a network drive. As a side note, for sharepoint access SharePlus is phenominal and was worth the investment. As for gaming, take a look at Kainy or Moonlight (nvidia card series 600 only.) both of those will stream very well through your network and even over WAN.
I use also Microsoft RDP because the multisession feature is great. But with my SM-P900 I can it only use with a 5.1.1 ROM.

Though I only had this tablet for 3 days do to me really disliking it, here is the list of the apps that I use and like.
Lancher; Smart Launcher Pro
Browser; Maxthon, Google Chrome
FileManager; ES File Explorer (this is a must have program, you can access all of your cloud, network, local, FTP and SD Card storage in one place, just awesome)
CloudStorage; your tablet comes with 50GB of DropBox but I would defiantly also use the 15GB of free Google Drive and OneDrive from Microsoft. The latter is fantastic)
News; FlipBoard(a must have), Google Newsstand, Appy Geek, CNN Tablet, News 360 Tablet
Video; VLC and the built in video player is all you'll ever need
Music; I use Spotify, love it but others like Pandora are also good
Torrent; Vuze, Utorrent Pro
Shopping; Amazon, eBay, Best Buy(even if you don't buy from them it's still a good app to see what the prices for things are and if especially if a certain new product is even being offered yet)
Social Media; Pinterest(this is a fantastic app and like Flipboard is a must have) and of course the usual suspects like Facebook and Twitter if you use those services, I prefer Google+
Information; Google Search, Wikipedia Tablet, Wikitionary
EBook; Aldiko Premium, Google PlayBook (I use this app the most because I can store all of my eBook on Google Drive and this app can sync with them easily)
Torrents; Vuze (this is a very nice app), uTorrent Pro
Office; QuickOffice, Kingsoft Office (very nice interface but again I use QuickOffice for the same reason I use PlayBook, it's a Google Service and I can sync my docs with ease)
Music; I'm done buying music, I use Spotify and it fits my needs wonderfully
Notes; OneNote, EverNote and SpringPad all fantastic and worth an install, I use OneNote the most because I have a Nokia 1020 phone and a Nokia 2520 for work, I scan all of my documents using Office Lens then sync with OneNote.
Chat & Video Conferencing; Viber (use this the most), Skype, Facebook Messenger and of course Google Hangouts
Photo Editing; Pixlr Express, Photo Editor (this is a fantastic program but it ran like molasses on mm Tab 3, there has been update that supposedly fixes some performance issues with the Intel but don't hold your breath, Fotor (also a great program for your phone), anything by Aviary is also good.
Wallpapers; Premium Wallpapers HD (the best wallpaper program for tablets as every wallpaper scales to portrait and landscape perfectly though the quality of some of the Photos could be better, on the crappy 1280 x 800 rez all should be fine, I was commenting about when using an ultra high rez like with the Nexus 10
Miscellaneous; 500PX, IMDB, Flikr, Photobucket
Well that's it for me, it would be a good idea to search for Android Tablet Apps in Pinterest, that's where I find a lot of great stuff to install.
