[Q] App for viewing webcam - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I found an app around feb or so that allowed me to view my home webcam on my evo but now I can't find it any more. It had a program that ran on the pc with the cam and you then got the same app on your phone. It was incredibly easy to set up. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Or is there something equivalent that is easy to set up. I've tried Ip cam but couldn't get it to work. Thanks

Seedonk is awesome and insainly easy

THATS IT! You are my hero! Been searching it for days!!!

Your welcome. If the cpu app didn't pop up when I connect it would be perfect. It's kind a give away to see what the teen is up to when it pops up on the screen. Already have every led murdered out in the room. My wife complained it looks like a space ship in the living room with all the leds. Wifi router, dsl modem, air raive blueray drive that flashed during a movie(how freaking stupid is that LG?)

Mine does it sometimes to. It just gives the inc character lol. From what I can remember it's done it on every rom except sky raider and stock lol.

How old is your Inc? Mine is about 7 months old now and I am running into some issues every now and then where the vibration just feels dead. It also makes a weird clicking sound when it boots up. It may be a ROM that you are using or your vibe motor is just kicking the bucket.
I really dont know i bought it off ebay with a bad esn. But it was perect mint condition with the box manuals and evrything... Im running the Incredirom 2.2 and in fact the vibration does stop working because i often press the volume down button to put it into vibration mode and it does not vibrate when i put it in vibration mode. U know how is suppose to vibrate when u set it in vibration mode, it sometimes does not vibrate.

It's stable and has some Cm features, it's pretty good.

If you're not opposed to upgrading, I recommend Pure Speed V7. It's a port from the evo shift also its 2.3.3. Your incredible's memory will decrease a little but it is solid and I have no issues with it on mine. But if your vibration still doesnt work, you have a busted motor.
Mine does this also. I have no idea why. I usually have haptic feedback off but when I do have it on it fades out every now and then.

I read a while back that your haptic feedback motor can basically be overloaded by heavy activity, and that giving your phone a firm shake when it's being unresponsive will correct the problem. it's always worked for me.
Didnt like Sky Raider, drastically slowed down my phone. Returned to stock 2.2. And yeah i think my motor is busted.
Lol and i tried shaking it and it works but i will look like an idiot shaking my phone every 5 minutes on the train or bus.

Netflix not clear and buttons stay lighted up

Is it me or is netflix not that clear. Important watching via wifi and it seems to have tiny squares. Also the buttons stay lit up they won't turn off. Is there anyway to turn it off while netflix is running?

Buttons can be turned off via screen filter in market...bad quality is due to bad internet connection. Try moving closer to router or not covering up the bottom of your phone with your palm

I can confirm this, even youtube video look better than netflix for some reason
I was watching Netflix earlier, and I noticed lines, very faint but still there, in the whole movie...
Weird.

I have noticed this problem too from the very first day I got the phone. Netflix quality is miserable with very low resolution... it's not the internet connection speed (WiFi 30Mbps), and the WiFi signal is not being blocked or anything (did a Speedtest).
It's not the phone either, I had it replaced 4 times when I was trying to get one with good screen (I didn't, just gave up).
This problem is also present while streaming flash videos. The strange thing is that if you download the flash video (same one with the bad quality), and play it from the phone (using the built-in videos app), the quality is fine.
It's as if the video is not being smoothed when upscaled and played. I could see that very clearly when comparing the flash playback with the downloaded file; like a shirt collar for ex.
Maybe the built-in app uses some different method of playing videos?
+1 Netflix looks better on my g2x and my hd7 what's up with that lol

I can think of several reasons...
1.) We do not have netflix hd.
2.) Large screen with piss poor resolution.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I think those lines are the same lines that people complain about when the screen brightness isn't up all the way. But video sucks, now that you guys mention it about flash video on the web i have come to notice that also.

locate lost phone

I am looking for recomendations for "I lost my phone" apps.
Any feed back would be appreciated.
Thanks
Cerbus anti theft. Its $3, but I heard its really good. You can go on your computer, and you can find your phone on it through gps.
Also if you lost it because of theft you can lock up your phone, wipe your data, record voice, send the phone messages, and stuff like that.
Here's the demo video.

Will it also cause the phone to ring so if you misplaced it you can locate by sound? Will it turn the ringer on even if you had it on vibrate?
LookOut helped me find my phone. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lookout&hl=en
Lookout has a plan b app that can help you find your phone if you didn't have it installed. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5sb29rb3V0LmxhYnMucGxhbmIiXQ..

If your phone is lost then Plan B sounds like what you need. Based on the positive reviews it seems like a winner.
I use avast and it works awesome. Left my phone at home but thought I lost it used my buddys for sms command and and found it in 5mins

I lost my phone. I use Sprint Total protection. you can use the computer to locate you phone and locates it right on a map. its free and works fairly well.
I would recommend where's my Droid, really works. I have a buddy who lost his phone, next morning after partying he realizes he doesn't have his phone,luckily his sister installed Where's my Droid on it, good thing he had a screen lock, and even more lucky the heroin addict who took it wasn't smart enough to turn it off. Anyway, turned out to be about 30 miles from where we live,dude returns it, looking all burnt out, skinny as hell,veins all purple ...even tried to get money for him returning it. Lol.

I also prefer the mentioned Cerberus. It does GPS location, and sending alarms like most of these apps. The thing that stood out to me was its remote camera and audio recording abilities. Also, I use a secure lock screen. With cerberus, you can have the phone automatically take a picture using the front camera, if an incorrect pattern/password was entered, and then email that picture. Also, the app is fully functional during the trial period. It's kind of scary how much permission I'm allowing these types of apps to have, but it's a gamble I'm willing to take at the moment.

Change color of messages bar

Finally got the wife to move over from the dark side, iPhone, to Android! It's the little things in life... Anyways, of course she wants it all pretty like the iPhone, so I've been trying to help her customize it pretty good. In the stock messaging app, you can change the theme. But, is there any way to change the color of the bar at the very top that says "Messages"? It stays blue!

I believe not yet . . I know there's a lot of people requesting the option to change the colours to their own but nothing yet . . I'm sure rooting would allow it some way but I've yet to take the plunge of rooting my M8

Thanks for the responses. Now we're having issues with the TV app. I was able to set mine up just fine. On hers, when she get to the screen where it asks for your favorite TV shows, then hits next, we get an error message... Something about not being able to retrieve the data from the server.. I've tried everything.. uninstalling the update, which just updates when you open the app, clearing the app data/cache, etc. Any ideas on this one?
