is it possible? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

I'm just wondering if it was possible and doable to configure my epic 4G so I can use the hardware keyboard as a bluetooth keyboard for my note 2.
If so I would assume there would be an app or mod I would have to install on the epic and possibly on the note too.
Its been so hard for me to let go of using a hardware keyboard. If anyone knows how to do this you would certainly earn my gratitude.

I use the app "Webkey" for remote viewing. What you could do is start the server on your Note 2, and on your Epic 4G you could sign in and type where a user would normally type. I can get screenshots for you, if you'd like.

Its close, but when I hit any buttons on the remote phone it kicks out of remote control.
so let's say I hit the home button. it won't take me to the home of the phone I'm remoted in. It kicks me out of Webkey and I'm on the home screen of the client device rather than the server device.

So the less obvious features.

I just have a couple of dumb questions.
Do the motions being active consume battery?
Do I have to engage anything before tapping my screen to send a file to another phone? (or is having that check box enabled1 enough?) also is the Galaxys3 the only phone compatible with that feature?
The commercial where the guy just swoops a document from his phone to the tv... What's the process for that and I imagine it only works with certain tvs after an annoying registration /setup process.
Are they working on improving svoice or is that not a huge priority
Is there a voice dialer like on froyo that doesn't require the internet to do phone functions? I don't like relying on 3g.
I'm sure I'll think of more, but I apologize if this is in the wrong thread. Please just let me know and I'll copy paste to the right one.

You have to turn on NFC and s beam then go to gallery or something to the file you want then put the phone back to back and then then phone will say touch screen to beam
You can get Google now with the offline pack. Its in the themed and app section
We don't really know what Samsung's priority are. With Google now out we can only hope Samsung trys to stepup their game

Bluetooth Auto Off_Wifi Auto On and Off

Starting an app forum to see who would be interested in having their android phone save them time and power. I have two apps on the market that do just that. One cuts bluetooth on and off when disconnected from any device or a device you specify. The other will cut your wifi on when you get home and connect to your home wireless and talk to you and turn it off when you leave home and talk to you. Respond to this post and I will post the links to the apps on market. Developer name on play store is Devils Advocate

No Android Beam?

I was trying to start up a content transfer with someone else's phone. I used an HTC One and they had Samsung Galaxy S3s. It would show the touch to transfer screen and it would just open the playstore to an item which didn't exist. It doesn't matter what they tried to transfer.

From what I understand its just a frontend for NFC which the phone does have. All I've done is selected the content I wanted to move and tap phones..

It wouldn't send me the little note to send off / receive without it on. Issue is, every time I receive something, it just shows up as a Google Play Link. When I try to send something, it just stops after I touch to beam.
I'm not sure what it is then, mines working fine(a little finnicky at times but fine).

My buddy has an S3 and I have the One, and in order for it to register I had to hold my phone about as low as his camera, but it worked like a charm. Then again, I sent him a few contacts and some pics for jokes.
Wife and I have GS3 and ONE, we send pics back and forth all the time.

You can NOT send playstore apks via NFC, it will always show a playstore link, this is to prevent sharing of paid apps.

No, not playstore apps or links. For example, friends on GS3 with gallery app opened to send a link. It just constantly wants to open a nonexistent item in the playstore. Sorry if I am unclear. I am thankful for all the help thus far.

Thanks. I think I actually figured it out. Anyone else wondering, anyone with Samsung phones transferring to the HTC One, the Samsung user needs to turn of their S Beam, because it tries to use the Samsung branded gallery app to transfer pictures.

No video sharing on Group Play 4.3 updated?

So I updated my mother's Note 2 with 4.3. The phone is stock and everything, my problem is and made real angry is that I wanted to show off some of the new feature that it has. So went to group play app to do the video sharing, but when I see, there isn't any video sharing to my surprise!!! What happen? I saw all those demo showing off the video sharing option with a Note 3 and a Note 2!
I was testing that out (half heartedly) with my girls GN3 and my newly OTA'd GN2 and couldn't get them to detect with the scan... just off work so I'll try a few more things and see if I can get anywhere
Edit:
So far no dice... double checked device status and Knox counter... everything is good. I did turn on my phone afterwards and noticed several app updates (most were for newer 4.3 apps) but not for group play or Samsung link...
As of right now I wasn't able to get my girls GN3 and my GN2 to recognize each other through any of the apps when referring to videos... (we also have a Samsung TV but no dongle yet)... was able to get music to play on both devices though...
Some things that I've noticed:
1. Her group play app is about half the size of mine (even though she has the GN3 and I'm on the GN2)
2. Her Group Play app is actually an older version than mine
3. Her Group Play app has an option of video sharing where mine doesnt... I only have music/documents/etc... but no video tab to share
Really the whole thing makes no sense lol... but ill continue looking around for answers... pretty stumped at this point as, like I said, they sync for music, just not videos
Something tells me the solution could be as simple as a setting, as boring as waiting for the app to update, or as complex as requiring a dev to manipulate resolution errors/compatibility issues etc and creating a work around... really no idea at this point

That app before downloading, request an insane amount of permissions that are irrelevant (in my opinion) to what it should be doing... is there a webpage, youtube video or anything else online available to show me what the app does?

Post some screen shots of the app running... I mean even if I install it, how does the app work? Will it allow me to connect to the note 3? Ultimately I dont know why the new update doesnt have these options built in? Dont really care for 3rd party apps either

This apk doesnt run as such and wont appear in your app drawer. It seems to act as more of a plugin for group play.
Seems silly to me to. I dont see why it cant be part of the app.
Did you bother to try this in the end?
If you dont trust my file you can always download a stock N3 firmware and rip the apk from that yourself

I know. You were saying it doesn't appear in the app drawer. So you need this for it to appear. I like having the app in the app drawer instead going to the gallery which takes more time.

As far as i can tell it does not effect the streaming to tv function as this worked for me both with and without the share video apk.
Hi, do you guys have any idea about this? I'm trying to make the bluetooth shortcut to work but it says this app is not installed. I didn't have this problem on 4.1.2 version.now I'm on 4.3 not rooted. Thank you.

Okay after playing around and trying to figure out how to do this I find out how. You need a smart TV that's connected to your home network. That can recognize media files from your phone. Like a media server. I have a Sony TV so I went to settings turned on near by devices and allowed my TV to look in my phone. Then go to wherever on your TV to find the media connection and browse from your TV.

Dish Anywhere

Can someone please try to sideload the Dish Anywhere app and let me know if it loads / displays properly ?
I tried side loading it via adb and it wouldn't send. Other apps would but this one said fail for some reason.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
I side loaded it and it installed fine. after launching, the app runs 90 degrees rotated clockwise and I couldn't go any further. I probably should have tried it with mouse just for fun of it but figured without remote support it wasn't worth it.
Would that orientation app help get this app to work? How did you get it transfer via adb? I couldn't get it to go through. Other apps transferred fine but dish anywhere had a long error message. I'm pretty new at this stuff so please have patience. Thanks.

Thanks for your efforts. What's needed is a way to trigger tablet mode in the app. When I run the Dish app on my Nexus 7 it loads in proper landscape orientation instead of smartphone (portrait) orientation.
