Wow, is our Wifi server this terrible? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I can't even open imediashare now, it just force closes. Apparently any other dlna app can't even recognize my Xbox. The only thing that has previously worked was when I switched to the 3.0 sensation and I can't stress this enough, is the best damn dlna server I've ever used and it was built it!
Is there a possible way to port this out of sensation and use it on cm7 and miui or can it only function on a 3.0?

Remote cam app

Anyone know if there is an app out there that let's me remotely (from another computer) activate my phone camera or camcorder and have it stream the vid or camera shot to the computer I'm accessing the phone on????
Like....set the phone up for remote security or spying...etc....and access the live stream from another computer......the catch is I have to be able to turn on the video/viewing remotely........
Over the network or WiFi would be sweet in case the phone was stolen you could also see where it was and who stole it????
Thanks guys!!!

Found one. Works flawlessly....free too.
Droidvncserver - for droid (free in the market)
Use in conjunction with tightvnc viewer - on your pc (free from tightvnc.com)

IP Webcam works too. I tried it out last week. Might be more what you are looking for.
Actually the app needs to be started first. Or you could start it with droid vnc and then view the stream in a web browser or vlc.

ROMs that support VZW WIFIRouter.apk

Was wondering what ROMs out there for the DINC will support the VZW native Wifi hotspot app? Android Wifi tether has become unreliable for me, but don't I don't want to give up the MANY benefits of runnig a custom ROM. So what ROMs out there with support the stock WIFIRouter.apk?
Thanks!
Use a FroYo AOSP ROM--they have built-in Wi-Fi tethering. CM7 is a good idea, as is Ruby.
I would say omgb or omfgb they both work great

Sense roms support the official one like I use virtuous and I have the actually 3g hotspot

Everyone says WiFi tether is faster and better, but I have problems with it some times to.
For example, on some ROMs with wifitether, I can't connect to my exchange server. Remote desktop doesn't work either.
I get this same problem connect to exchange and remote desktop to office with some motel WiFi as well. Never really figured it out.
I like the stock WiFi router as well. Always connect my laptop to work. Exchange and remote desktop.

This is epic! And here is the original thread....

You know what, this proves to me how easily people are fooled ... the term "Ported" usually means it actually RUNS on the device, what they have done here, is used the Unity 3D World browser to connect to a virtual client, the game is actually running on the remote machine, you can even "Host" , but it is on the remote machine .. So this is by no means a "Port", but they seem to have convinced people it is ....
Now I am by no means trying to take away from the accomplishment, but it is more of a web client, then it is a "port" , hence is why they have a browser based PC version that looks exactly the same ...
Just my personal opinion a "Port" should actually run on the device, not simply connect to another source to emulate it ...
s
good
my boy is playing it now and loves it. once you get past the little windows screen it aint that bad.
Do you just flash the zip in recovery mode?
No change the zip to .apk. I've only had one game so far, kicked ass and quit on me.

Just get it directly from the play store..
If you get it from google play its called critical strike portable not counter strike portable its free though and set up is easier to use than the leaked version.

but still have no bots..
Set it up in the menu when you start the game
Is this the same as Critical Strike?

Tethering question

Hey everyone, just wondering is there is a way to tether via USB using wifi as the source of internet?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
Yes there is. It's built into the system settings (At least for ICS).
Sent from my vivow using xda app-developers app
It's called internet pass through I think.

clarification
Do you mean for the PC to tether though the andriod? if that is the case you may need to use something like EasyTether.
Yea, I want to hook a PC up that doesn't have wireless capabilities so I can use wifi on it. I'm running AOKP, I haven't tried to hook it up yet to see if it comes with this rom.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
OK just an update, hooked my phone up to my PC and hit USB tether at the settings UI is force closing
EDIT: Using Easy Tether, I have internet but its intermittent and a little slow, but its a start.

There is an app on the Play Store called "Open Garden." It enables Wi-fi tethering on 3G or Wi-Fi for Free.
Before I had Ice Cream Sandwich and was rooted, I always used PDANet, it works great on both Mac and PC! If it isn't in the Play Store anymore, i'm sure you could find the .apk somewhere online. Best of luck!

HDMI output with xbmc

Greetings all!
I have recently come across a used Evo with a bad microphone. I intend to use it to play videos, particularly from xbmc. According to the xbmc website the Evo is supported.
Additionally, I would like to output the signal to my telly using HDMI. From what I understand, this will require mirroring. My question: any stable roms recommend for mirroring?
Thanks!

Cm7 is the one i used. I couldn't find something as stable as that

the Sense based ROMS with HDMI built in have plug and play... you plug in your HDMI cord and you're good to go. CyanogenMod requires you use the HDMwIn app (free), so it's an extra step to use mirroring.
That having been said, I use CyanogenMod 7.2 Stable for the most part. The biggest reason is that they have a mouse pointer code in their ROM and a full bluetooth stack. I use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse... plug my Evo into my TV and then sit on my couch while I type and use my mouse from a lapdesk. Instant home computer! I also can use a Nintendo Wii Classic controller to play games.
Sense based ROMs do not have a full bluetooth stack and I cannot stand that absence.
One more thing about CM... it comes packaged with an old version of ADW Launcher. It did NOT play well with my phone and I had frequent force closings. I updated ADW Launcher from the market, switched default use to the updated launcher, changed the old ADW to a user app (via Titanium Backup) and deleted it, made the new ADW a system app and rebooted. My force closings were entirely eliminated and I have a very stable phone at this time.
Thanks for the replies, all!
