Hey guys just wondering if anyone has found a way to enable sidesync on the tab s and login to your phone without opening side sync on the phone itself.
Im seeing alot of reviews saying it would come in handy having this app and being able to use your phone if its in another room. But everytime I start the app it says to open sidesync on the mobile device.
Sorry if this sounds like a silly question but I cant figure it out.
Thanks in advance
The phone and tablet will have to be connected by bluetooth. Then you can just open it up on the tablet and it will automatically connect.
Thanks for the reply
I tried that with Bluetooth but it uses bluetooth as a internet tether only option.
Still can't open sidesync without opening the app on the phone.
Thanks again in advance

Hey guys,
Just joined the whole android crowd, and for my first device why not the biggest phone they could load Android onto the Note II. I have been really happy with the device so far, well minus the fact the keyboard doesnt auto correct, and some other minor things. I like using AirDroid when I'm at home, but while I'm at work my PC is on a completely separate wired LAN system and not WIFI, is there a app out there that would allow me to send SMS from my PC through the phone similar to Airdroid without being on the same network? It doesn't have to be wireless, I can do USB, or my PC has bluetooth as well.
Thanks in advance, J

Hi, first off, I haven't ever needed to post much here before but I love to read all the stuff available here at this site. Top notch man!
Anyway, I have a question that I cannot seem to find an answer to, and have tried numerous search terms to no avail.
Is there a way where I can hook up my s3 to my PC and be able to see the text messaging interface on the PC as well as use the keyboard on the PC to interact with them?
The PC is running WIn XP SP3 and I also have a laptop that runs Win 7.
After hours of texting, this would be much more comfortable on the eyes, and using the full sized keyboard on my PC would mean less typo corrections due to striking the wrong letters. If anyone has a solution for this, or can suggest an app that does this, please respond.
Thanks in advance.
Yesterday I saw an app on market for that .
Search text from pc or text from tablet. There are bunch off apps.

Thanks!, Not exactly what I was looking for but a good alternative. The ultimate would be to have the GS 3 connected via the micro USB and then see the messaging GUI as seen on my phone on my PC screen while being able to use my PC keyboard for interaction. I am guessing this doesn't really exist as of yet.
USB Mouse

Actually I saw some pics of my friend whose usb connector has a female usb port at the other end which has a usb mouse connected, and it works. You should try to look for that connector and try your keyboard. :cyclops:
Not sure if I understand your question exactly but you might want to try Kies Air. It's either through the browser or it comes as a little standalone application when you download Kies.
I'm using MySms and it works great. I can text from my tablet, my PC (browser or app), and everything syncs and backs up to the cloud. You'd need to install their app on your phone so it can intercept your texts and send them to the cloud. The only thing is that MMS is funky, so I still use the AOSP messenger to download and upload them.
Use AirDroid.
Does SMS, app installs, file transfers, and more through Wi-Fi or data connection

Nice find! Didn't come across this before I posted in this thread back in February. Checking it out now.
Hi guys, I tried to search for a keyboard/mouse that could control my computer and my note simultaneously, but to no avail.
So, my question is there a keyboard i can purchase that cant output to both my computer and my note?
During my downtime at work, I'd like maybe surf the web and check my personal email without going thru my internet connection at work.
Are there any suggestions out there?
Thanks in advance!
Hey guys so I tether once and a while when needed with my verizon gnex which works just fine with multiple devices like my laptop and nexus 7. I figured this was a piece of cake easy thing for my chromecast as well, but it appears I was wrong. I am currently on the kevdliu 4.3 rom which continues to allow my tethering ability but for some reason my chromecast cannot seem to work with it. Even if I do manage to connect to it which is rare, I cannot then access it from another device*nexus 7*. The cast button doesnt appear and when I then run the chromecast app it states that my chromecast isnt connected and tries to go through the connection process again.
So I know you are all about to say things like "maybe it wont work on the phone" or "this should go in the chromecast threads section" which for the second I almost did, but the interesting thing is my coworker with his galaxy s4 tethered just fine between my tablet and chromecast. He has tmobile and uses the official free one through them as he isnt rooted.
any suggestions?
edit, I am now seeing something interesting. It seems that although both my laptop and tablet appear to be connected to the tethering, if I started using my laptop first then the moment I picked up my tablet it then disconnects me from the internet on my laptop.
Have you figured anything out?
I currently am in the same situation too. I don't have a home wifi yet and use tethering for most of the things I do online.
I can't get anything to work whether trying to set it up from the phone or laptop.
hello everyone
I bought a gtab pro 8.4 and first thing to do was to root, install a proper recovery and of course a custom kernel. After that I debloated my stock rom but I deleted nothing I would call important.
this is my first upper class samsung device since years (I own a galaxy nexus) and I have a question that may some of you could answer:
Does SideSync:
- need KNOX to work?
- depend on other preinstalled apps?
- not work if binary counter for custom roms or kernel is increased?
I can't get it to work, neither with USB nor over Wifi...
Thank you all
edit: or is sidesync on our tabs only to control the mobile phone and not to be controlled by a computer?
I have a GTP 8.4 and an S4 phone. I have SideSync 3.0 setup with them paired.
1) I believe SideSync is only between phone and tablet - no PC involved or supported.
2) After playing with it for 30 minutes or so, SideSync looks completely useless to me.
- SideSync will only connect the devices when they are both on the same WiFi network. So, if you're out and about, you can use it. If you're using your phone as a hotspot and the tablet connected to the Internet via the hotspot, you also can't use SideSync.
- There is a free app for Verizon customers called Verizon Messages, which I already have on my tablet, It gives me full SMS/MMS mirroring between my phone and tablet - without having to pair the devices.
- Leaving SideSync running all the time is a battery hog, so you wouldn't want to do that. So, when you DO want to use it, you have to start it on both devices. Well, if I'm going to pick up my phone to start SideSync, just to control it with my tablet, what's the point? I can just do whatever I need to do on my phone when I pick it up.
- Being able to place/receive calls using my tablet, with it actually going through the phone might be cool sometimes, but, as I said, if I have to grab my phone and start SideSync first, I'm probably just going to make the call using the phone. Alternatively, I'd try to figure out a way to pair my tab to the phone using Bluetooth and use the tablet as a handsfree device instead, leaving SideSync out of it.
If anyone can tell me something useful about SideSync, I'd love to hear it. I may have tried it and totally missed some cool use case.
any ideas why I can hear caller but caller cant hear me??
