Acro S V4L2 enabled? - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hello
I am planning to buy the Acro S soon, and I wanted to know whether the kernel on the device is V4L2 - enabled. I want to use an external webcam with the SimpleWebcam application and I also need ANT+ support so I guess I have to use the stock ROM.

This phone support ANT+.

Yes, I know that. The actual question is whether I also can get it to show me a picture from a webcam connected to the USB OTG port. I need Video4Linux 2 support enabled in the stock kernel for that.

Dude, do you actually read my posts or are you just responding to certain keywords, like a chatbot?
I don't want a front camera, I want to connect a real webcam through USB. Like this:

I plan to install the web camera on the seatpost of my bicycle facing rearwards. I want to grab the video from the camera and show the ANT+ data over it, thus making the phone a bike computer and a rearview mirror at the same time.

Well, I've got a hub dynamo on my bike and a USB power output, so that should not be a big deal.

sorry i shouldn't say it that way. i mean acro s already does not have a good battery life, so i don't suggest you using two cameras + other tasks at a time while riding a bike. but the 10th post seems to have a solution for it?

webcam to android device possible?

Is it possible to connect a usb webcam to an android device? my reasoning is that I take photography images with our telescope, the eyepiece has an HD webcam for capturing images. It would be nice to use a smaller cellphone for image capture than a laptop; I have tried the cellphone itself but the camera is cumbersome for alignment. thanks to any reply and idea.

you needs a kernel that support an USB-CAM and additional a software that can handle the new usb-webcam device.
I think its easier to use a webcam with wifi.

Yah i think Droidcam could help you.
So, that i know, maybe it's possible with serious risk for your device, because you need to find a good kernel for you device and configure it with good voltage and sure parameters; after that, you need of a converter usb OTG and of a specifically software for this work.
I don't know other informations!
Have a nice day
p.s.: google say similar things

this one works, i havent tested myself
After some research I've discovered an app bundle called Droidmote Server and Droidmote Client. It claims to be working with Xperia Play's physical controls. However I haven't found any video proof, only a couple of vague xda posts.

Personally, I don't mind the touchpads not working, as long as the gamepad is responsive. How is it? When connecting, phone and tablet via Wifi HOtspot, does data get eaten up?

PS3 and Sony mobile

I have two questions.
When I connect my HOX to my PS3 with a USB cable it doesn't connect when I choose phone storage. Does anyone else have this result.
Another question is regarding the Sony mobile certification for the One X. Has this been implemented in the latest update of Sense 4+ ?

note 3 PS3 controler

I have an UNROOTED note 3. I purchased the official Samsung OTG cable to connect my sixaxis ps3 controler to the note 3.
phone. I have sixaxis checked under language and input.I hit the ps3 button and it just flashes for a while and turns off. The phone recognized that a usb device is connected.
You still need sixaxis app. To configure everything. With root the only difference is blue tooth versus being connected through OTG.

i do have the sixaxis app. I have the ime set to sixaxis. in the sixaxis software I have gamepad checked. Still cant get any sort of control out of it. I just ordered a new otg cable to see if that is the issue. Anyone want to spend some time and do a small right up. Every video I;ve seen show you just hook it up and it works.

thanks for the video. I'm using the official samsung OTG cable and that probably is the reason I'm still having issues. I already ordered another one and will update asap. I really appreciate you going above and beyond.
