[Q] Using EVO as GPS device for laptop

While preparing to storm chase last night I started to wonder if there was a way to use my EVO to send GPS coordinates to my radar software on my laptop. Has anyone done something similar to this? I've looked at apps that were supposedly suppose to do this in the past, but was not able to get them to work.
Just wanted to know if anyone else had any experience doing this. I already use wireless tethering for the internet connection now, but it would be great if I could just bring the laptop and phone and have it all covered.

Also, as a side note, I have noticed a handful of apps that will send the data via Bluetooth, but I do not have Bluetooth available on my laptop, so I would prefer to just be able to transmit via USB. I may just have to break down and buy a bluetooth module for my laptop.

As of right now it seems that this isn't possible. Someone else with a Droid incredible wanted to do the exact same thing. It seems that gps module in the phone isn't capable of sending anything via USB. Maybe Bluetooth would actually work! Here's the read.

[Q] 3G Dongle

Hello experts,
I Searched for it, but no answers. I have a external 3G dongle that i use in some cases, when I travel to visit a client for example. But I literary don't use it at home, and my Data Plan the speed are to slow, up to 300 kbps, and after downloading 10MB per day, it slow down to 50 kbps, yes it is slow!
As i have a 3g dongle at home, I've bought this connector:

}
I Connect the 3G dongle but nothing happened =/. I removed my sim card and let just the 3G, but nothing happened, I pressed the button search network operators and the blue light of 3G dongle turned on for 1 sec, and showed me all the operators. But I'm not able to use it as a modem.
I know that tablets are able to do it, but them don't have a 3G inside, so the setting are able to handle just 1 connection when you connect a 3G dongle you have just to enable the data on settings, but in our case if we enable it will use the sim's card data, not the 3G dongle.
There is a way to do it? how?
I'm using the stock rom, rooted.
Thanks in Advance!

New Note 3, couple issues

So, I love this phone and hate it at the same time.
First off, just at random, the BT, Wi-Fi or GPS will just turn off. Has not happened for a couple days, nothing has really changed.
Now the big issues. These are driving me nuts....
I have a Pyle PLDN74BTi (don't laugh, it was dirt cheap) and it supports Bluetooth audio and tagging and speakerphone from a BT phone. All the features work except the tagging. I cannot get BT to display the audio info or the phone info.
Second, I just bought an iBolt xProDockX. When I dock it, the phone recognizes its docked, but it will not open the doc app upon dock. I look in the default apps, and the dock isn't even listed. I purchased Car Home Ultra and it wont auto open, I even install the dock&drive app from iBolt and it wont auto open upon docking either.
Anyone else having these stupid issues with their phone? I have cleared all the apps, and I have restarted the phone. No Dice.

You posted this in the S3 forum, not the Note 3... I doubt you will get any help here

****! Sorry. I don't know what happened.

Question Any way to get wireless charging?

So I was checking the specs for the phone before buying and everybody says that it doesn't officially support wireless charging. So I wanted to know if somebody has managed to make wireless charging work. I have seen a couple of videos for phones that don't support it either charging wirelessly with NFC. Sorry for the noob question, just wanted to make sure because I haven't used wireless charging before.

I don't think you can. The hardware isn't set up for wireless charging. I'd recommend not trying things that could put your phone in danger.

Buddy, if the specification says that it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. No matter who made which videos. There are external wireless charging options that are placed under the TPU bumper, but the USB-C port is always blocked.

Some semi-wireless, though unsure about the safety or usefulness.

Keyword is : Magnetic Type C cable

Okay then it's not worth exploring. Thanks a lot guys

It's not got a wireless charging coil so the answer is no wireless charging

The closest thing is a QI receiver but you will lose the usefulness of usb c while you use it and I don't know if there is any certified with any quality certificate.

ain't worth it anyways imo

Question Wireless display/ screen cast

My p6p will not pick up my TVs built in wireless display or even my Roku, do pixel phones only detect chrome casts? My Samsung is able to pick it all up weird.
All the playstore apps I have tried don't work either

No luck here either. I have a 2020 LG CX TV. I assume it might work with any brand that uses Android TV (or an addon Android TV, similar to Chromecast). I've successfully used apps such as AirDroid to mirror to my computer, which is also hooked up to my TV. They have several related apps, several of which might do what you need. https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=SAND+STUDIO&hl=en
In the past, I've also successfully used TeamViewer - again to mirror on the computer. You have to do it locally over Wi-Fi, though, remote via mobile data didn't work for me on any phone.

Some non-Android TVs do accept Google-style casting or allow the YouTube app to act as a middle man for content-specific casting. I know my LG webOS one allows the latter. BubbleUPnP and LocalCast are similar in that regard.
But mirroring? That's harder with a Pixel.
I remember in the past there were Magisk modules to enable the checkbox for Miracast, but it doesn't actually work or can even cause bootloops.
