connect to internet via usb - Desire General

Moving from windows mobile base to android, anyway knows that with help of activesync it is possible to use PC internet connection from device.
From what I've searched it is not possible in android, just the opposite is possible, meaning use device internet from PC.
I just ran into this

I was wondering if any kernel is built with this?
Thanks

Hi,
I was wondering if you found any solution for this. It is indeed abit annoying not to have this feature built in in Android.
Thanks, Babak

Artemis as webcam on linux/Windows

Hi Guys,
I would like to use my Arthemis as a webcam on my pc. I use linux as the primary os. Could you please explain if this is possible?
Thanks
Lhrt
for windows there is the program called webcamera plus from ateksoft (no freeware)
this program works with a app on the phone and a driver on the pc, maybe it is possible to get this driver working on linux? (i'm not a linux guy )
Problem is these require Activesync installed on the pc for the cam to work and Activesync will not work on Linux.
Googled my way into this thread, and I have the same problem.
I also got an idea here. Couldn't the phone simply stream the video over the network or bluetooth? In this case all it would take is basically a "http v4l" driver.
What do you think?

internet on android through pc

hi there
i am using the android os on my raphael and i simply love it....
i have one query
i want to access internet through my pc attaching the usb cable same as wm6.5 using activesync 4.5 on windows xp
how to access net through pc any software ? please help
and any software for linking pc with the phone like (active sync)
and all you guys you are doing a great job.....
im not so sure off this but i dont think that will work because the android sync's everything wireless like contacts and everything u might just wanna buy a router ?
There is a way to make your phone a wifi access point... it works, but slaughters the battery. I'm not aware of any way to tether it via USB currently...
I think there is this kind of software on linux, you might want to look into it a little bit to see if there is an android build...but I wound put too much hope on that....
there is no way possible on this right now not on usb because android on WinMo does not support usb connections so they being said there might not be a way to this now but in the future im sure our developers will work there way on getting usb working.

Share internet from computer to phone via USB

Hello
I am in need of a way to get internet to my phone through the USB-cable from the computer. Is there any way to do this? In either linux or windows... I will be without wireless internet for some time and I would like to try to avoid big data fees on my phone while staying at home...
A little edit to hopefully simplify what I'm looking for: Reverse tethering
Hey there,
Also I am looking for the same thing. It was one of very little good properties of my old win.mobile phones.
Y think the new HD roms have it, try and flash this rom, did not tried but the option appears in settings, i used this one:

[Q] How can I use my evo *as* a mouse and/or keyboard?

May seem kind of weird and you may be asking why I want to do this.
I have a little minitop PC set up and hooked into a TV. The way it's layed out, a mouse and keyboard would not fit in at all. It seems logical I can somehow use the evo as the mouse and/or keyboard on demand.
I see two general possibilities...
1) Using Bluetooth (I'd assume it would be using an AOSP rom such as Cyanogens because of the BT stack)
2) Some sort of remote desktop software that *doesn't* log out the computer once the evo logs in. Windows built in remote desktop is great, however when you log in remotely it brings the computer to the login credentials screen where it says someone now is logged into the computer.
What do you guys think? Is it a possibility?
Have you tried Gmote? I think it's exactly what you are looking for.

install a VNC agent on your PC and use a VNC client on your android like android VNC.
Thank you guys, I'm trying out both as we speak =)

As far as im aware there is not USB tethering Built into the SGS2 (unsure) but if you check for "tethering" apps on the market there are some decent ones some of which are free of charge

I think you are talking about the "Intenet Passthrough" feature, which is also available on a few lesser phones recently (http://www.htc.com/www/howto.aspx?id=52436&type=1&p_id=399). I don't really see an easy option for this. Hope something is done by the Devs or Samsung to cure this.
Thanks for your reply, yes i am looking for "internet pass through", it is available in HTC phone but not in S2, i searched in the apps but i didnt find any good apps which does support this.
Let me know if you know about any app.
Thanks
