Hello.
Recently I made a remote control solution which can control your Android-based phone on PC. Server runs on Windows-based PC only for now. (Server is based on MFC) Client(Your phone) should able to get root permission.
We verified this solution works on Galaxy S, Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note. But not yet tested on the other devices due to lack of devices.
If you have interests controlling your phone on PC, please check this out and leave us feedback. If you are willing to make this project better, feel free contact to us. Remoteroid will get better than ever, with your supports and contribution.
Project site:
- Since I'm new user to XDA, I can't leave URL for project page.
just google 'remoteroid'! (remoteroid on Google Code)
Brief build instructions (For client):
Checkout both 'ActionbarSherlockLib' and 'android' into your workspace, make sure Android 4.0.3 System image exists on your system and latest ADT has installed.
Once all prerequisites are fulfilled, just press 'Run' button on Eclipse to install Remoteroid on your phone.
Please test on Galaxy Nexus for us. If not working I will request this thread be taken down.
Thank You.
Bro, your post should be in the Android Apps and Games or Android Software Development. There is nothing Galaxy Nexus specific in your product or post.

Hi there,
I am planning to start some project in the NGO I am currently working in, a child aid organization in India. Therefore I bought some Zync Z930 tablet with 1,2Ghz CortexA8-CPU, 512MB DDR3 Ram and a capacitive touchscreen. Currently Android Ice-Cream-Sandwich (4.0) is running on it, but I want to install OLPC OS on it which is a Fedora-based distribution especially developed for the needs of children.
Actually, I don´t know how exactly to unlock the bootloader, root the device and install some other OS on it. Is there a general way or is this specific for every device? What about the driver support for the touchscreen etc.? Will it be the same as with Android? Furthermore, how can I make the device boot from SD-Card or USB?
To my knowledge: I have got some knowledge on GNU/Linux, I´m quite familiar with the terminal etc. and I have programming knowledge (C++), too, but none in Kernel or other low-level programming.
Sorry for not posting links to further information, but as this is my first post, I cannot post them...
If further information is required, please let me know it.
Thanks a lot,
badday
We're working on very similar lines

Hello badday,
I'm from Mumbai ...
We're working on getting Sugar on similar devices..
We kind of have made some progress..
The idea is to get the kernel sorted out for the particular device, and the base rootfs over which the system can be installed over.
Want to participate in the effort?
Kindly join the mailing list at gnowledge.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swarm
Happy hacking!

Hi jquip,
yes, I would be interested to join ur project, just need a little introduction and some more information. Do u guys have a git repo with the code on it?
Best wishes from Delhi,
badday
So I finally managed to install Sugar on top of Ubuntu on top of Android. First thing I did was rooting the tablet with adb commands, using "Complete Linux Installer", downloaded Ubuntu core, manually enlarged it to have enough space, installed lxde and sugar 0.90 from the official Ubuntu sources, started the xserver and vnc server and finally vnc-ed on the tablet into the graphical UI and started sugar.
However, currently I am facing the problem that e. g. turtle art will fail to start out of sugar but works fine when started just out of LXDE, so let´s see what the problem will be, stay tuned.
As I faced too many problems with Ubuntu, I changed to Fedora. Now activities can be started and it works like a charm...
Here are some pics: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hcnpkf4a83dczea/dZCr0Rc4U9
Photos are great.
Those pics really motivate me to want to make this happen on the Yeahpad Pillbox7 I am working on to do the same.
I am curious about your work there in India.
I would like to network with you further and beyond the scope of xda-developers. That we can cooperate together on educational goals for children internationally using computer protocols is fascinating. Consider putting me in your Google+ circles (I am at j dot mp slash paulplus) and on facebook i am fb dot com slash paulgydos. you can reach me directly by email at paul at gydos dot com. also I am on twitter @paulgydos and for the tablet project the twitter is @yeahpad. I am about to mention you over there at @yeahpad. I particularly like Google+ lately as it is currently a more serious platform than facebook which on the other hand has the benefit of so many users.
Thanks again for your posts.
I sent you a friend request on facebook as I am not at Google+ and not frequently on twitter.
Nice to have somebody in the same boat.

this get
"kernel sorted out for the particular device, and the base rootfs over which the system can be installed over" business
and getting ARM architecture away from proprietary-software like constraints seem like incredibly good goals.
so I joined the mail list and I'm reading through some of the archives.
What other places are people gathering around and working on such ideas?
I want to participate!

Hi everyone
I would like to present you, in compliance with forum rules (paragraph 11), project that I started more than a year ago, when wallpapers suited for tablet computers practically didnt exist, and I would like your feedback (do you like it, what to change, and most importantly does it work for your tablet,...)
Website/application can be found at tabletwallpapers.org , or specifically for Nexus 7: tabletwallpapers.org/google-nexus-7-wallpapers/
Website was designed specially for each tablet device, so every image was hand-edited to suite screen resolution of "any" given tablet device. After you choose your device, website will show only relevant wallpapers and backgrounds, and website will offer download in best resolution for detected device.
I hope you like it, and hope to hear some feedback from you. Thanks.
Hi all,
(Hoping this is the right forum - its description includes "Discuss functional and performance testing tools and services" but if I select the Question box when posting I'm told "This is not a Q&A forum. By posting questions in this forum you are breaking the forum rules.")
I'm looking for tools to automate functional testing of Android apps. Robotium looks promising but I'd be interested to hear what more experienced Android developers think and if they have other recommendations. Cloud-based services may be interesting too.
Thanks
Mirko
Robotium is a nice choice. I've written a guide about it which you can take a look at.
Also the standard tool provided by the SDK, called the MonkeyRunner Tool, is also a great option.

Good tutorial, thanks.
The ability to control more than one device with MonkeyRunner sounds very interesting. I wonder if you could even simulate two users interacting with each other.

You can do it with Robotium itself. Just specify the actions which you want sequentially, depending on your needs.

I recently uese monkeyrunner on automated test. I really think it's easier than Robotium. Espesially the additional tool hierarchy to view perspective provided by the SDK is very useful.

Maybe I should try using MonkeyRunner once after all. Though I never felt the urge to use anything else after Robotium.

Android TV using monkey runner
Hi All,
Im new to this forum and Monkeyrunner as well. I tried connecting my cell phone using monkey runner and it works fine, but when I try to connect my Android TV, it doesn't connect. When I type adb devices, it gives output as <IP ADRRESS>:<port>, but waitforconnection command is not able to connect to my TV. My TV and my PC is on same network, I use ADB commands like logcat, push and pull works fine, but this connection using monkey runner is not working out.
Any suggestion guys.
Regards
Devendra
Alternative Tool: Ranorex
I have another recommendation for you: Ranorex. It supports both iOS and Android testing. You needn’t write any code because Ranorex lets you record your tests on real Android devices. It’s even possible to manage your devices over Wi-Fi from a desktop PC without having a USB connection to the devices.
Robotium is no doubt the best tool for android automation. To use it effectively, you can use this app: Robotium

Hey Mirko,
Have you ever opted to try Cocos Test Automation? Cocos is providing a test automation service which allow you to automate your testing across over 80% of the relevant market share of real mobile devices. All you need to do is submit your games IPA or APK and our QA specialists will perform and record test flows. A test script will then be automatically replicated on hundreds of devices. A test report will be created and sent within 48 hours. Please feel free to contact me if you want to know more about this Cocos Service.
All the best,
Cocos Services
Crash log tool
I am not sure about automated testing by my favourite tool is Acralyzer. Best part is its free to install on your server and generates comprehensive reports.
I guess automated testing is also possible but it is something I have never tried.
thank you guys it's the first I heard of Robotium
Dear XDA members,
if you feel the same as the friends at https://postmarketos.org/ :
"We are sick of not receiving updates shortly after buying new phones. Sick of the walled gardens deeply integrated into Android
and iOS. That's why we are developing a sustainable, privacy and security focused free software mobile OS that is modeled after
traditional Linux distributions. With privilege separation in mind. Let's keep our devices useful and safe until they physically break!",
then it is time for you to step forward!!!
Last night initial support for the OPPO Find 7a was commited to the postmarketos pmaports git repo
https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports with commit https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/commit/1f8095771c4659d31e8b228dd85018e9ca9963ca.
It was a pain to get this committed as I'm not used to the git workflow, nonetheless with the help of the maintainers over there
and after deleting a few merge requests ( a no-no, don't do that!!) at the end we got it done.
At the moment the device port is only for the Find 7a for the simple reason that I own one but I'm sure it can be extended to the
Find 7 and Find 7s.
The answer to the question that you dear reader have in your mind now: "what works?" is easy: NOTHING WORKS YET!!!
The only thing working so far is that the kernel compiles, you can flash it or fastboot boot it, start a rootfs on the microsd card
and ssh into the system over a usbnet connection to look at all that lovely processes running.
Lots of work still needs to be done, I'm pretty shure that I will not be able to do this myself as my knowledge about the hardware
part of the device is minimal and I would need to reinvent the wheel for every little progress.
As I'm sure that there are still a lot of knowleadgeable develepers (THAT'S YOU!!!) lurking around this list my hope is to lure them
to contribute to this project.
I personally dream of the Find 7 running postmarketos and KDE plasma-mobile but even maemo would be ok!!!
Come on, let's do it!!!
Best regards,
farmatito

Screen and touchscreen working!!!
Still a lot of work to do. Help is appreciated!
Progress report
New package for installing various firmware blobs merged!
Next big thing should be to try to make video hardware acceleration work,
if there are any experts here help is appreciated!!!!.
Progress report
The attached photo shows my Find7a running the XFCE4 desktop.
The interface is fast enough even without hardware acceleration.
As the Desktop is not optimized for mobile devices it is not
a such a great user experience, but the basics work.
Still a lot of work to do, help is appreciated.
Progress report
Wifi Works!!! and you can browse the internet!!!
Help is still appreciated!!
No progress
This time there is no progress to report:
video acceleration not working yet due to the fact that the kernel is rather old (3.4.113), backporting newer drivers did not work out as the codebase differs to much (so no KDE plasma).
making the various sensors work is also rather difficult as the kernel uses a Device Tree and so even if there are drivers for the sensors you need some board specific info to create the device tree nodes.
last but not least the last version of xfce4 in alpine linux is not touchscreen friendly. GTK combo-boxes are now unusable (will eventually try maemo).
Help is very, very appreciated.
Saw this post, has a Find 7 and want to know more.
