Usb camera? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Anyone have any idea how to get this working? Tried my epic, my old htc evo and get nothing (no led lights) but it does work on my android tv box (mk908II) but I need this to be portable, any ideas, thanks

From what I've read, those types of devices (or anything other than connecting it to a PC) requires OTG (On the Go) support.

Wanted: Hermes Webcam App

Could anyone please be so kind to point me in the direction of an app to make the Hermes camera into a webcam, i have tried a couple of time limited shareware apps, one worked and one didnt.
Does anyone know of a freeware app, or something along those lines?
Muchly appreciated!

yes it does. running right now
Its a bit fiddly to setup and you need a PC connection via Activesync
Also, might want to try microsoft portrait http://research.microsoft.com/mcom/portrait/
some have reported problems though with WM6 based ROMS

M$ Protrait Does not work on WM6.

Thanks. That software looks good. One thing - the camera appears sideways - is there some way to make the image appear the same way up and the camera?

Don't have that setting. Only General, Front Sensor, Network. Running WebCamera Plus v1.05. Is there a later version?

Its accessible on the PC application.
Okay, so this is the problem now. I finally found the program and installed it. Now i Can't seem to connect online via USB. Is there a problem with the program? I uninstalled the program and still can't connect online via USB. Any leads? I was able to connect only just before installing the program.

I can't reproduce your problem. My device networks fine via USB after using the webcam software.
I have activesync installed, but don't have it set up with a partnership for my device (using oggsync instead). Does your activesync sync with your device?
Anything unusual in your network connections settings?
Have you tried a system restore to an earlier point?
HTH.
i had purchased the software and e mailed the company for unlock code.
Given my device id to them but the cab doesnt work.
i had changed my rom with black 2.0 and my radio is 1.4
any idea what could be wrong?

Do you mean that you changed the rom after emailing your device ID? If so, it could well be that your device ID has changed - have a look in your system info screen (as directed by ateksoft) to see if it matches what you sent them.
I had similar issue after changing roms - they sent me a new code.
slow framerate...
Is anyone else experiencing slow framrates???? I'm getting 7-8 fps at most ... ... definitely not liking the webcam at the moment... LOL

Hmm, I'm only getting around 3.5 fps. Anyone getting anything better?

The smaller the resolution that faster you will get... but by fast ... i mean 7 fps ... LOL
The framerate depends on the resolution and quality settings you are running at, if you turn the quality and resolution down you can get a good frame rate.
I run the resoultion at 640 x 480 and quality 70/E and the frame rate is fine.

[Q] About OTG~

can i ask what mean is OTG?see many people say it and dont no what means~
Good thing you're not asking about "will USB OTG supported in our device?"
According to Wikipedia (which actually you have to search regarding to Rule 1 *unless if you are too lazy to search for it*)
USB On-The-Go, often abbreviated USB OTG or just OTG, is a specification that allows USB devices such as digital audio players or mobile phones to act as a host, allowing other USB devices like a USB flash drive, mouse, or keyboard to be attached to them.
So, you can make your device as a host (like a computer) and if you attach something to your phone, it will be read as external partition. (CMIIW, as this is what I got)

Acro's new release says otg works "on external power". so does otg work? Cuz after some debates it seems to have been settled that otg will never work?

Well at first they said it will never work because the lack of drivers *CMIIW, as this is what I got* especially on 2.6.35, but now we have some new drivers *again, CMIIW. I don't get much information on this* (and also helps from our comrades from I9001 (S+) and SGH-T679 (Exhibit 4G)) so, we made it, even if it requires External Power.
Just tried with CyanogenMod 9 RC7. It doesn't work neither with 3.0 kernel.

Did you use USB External Power? Also, what did you insert? (p.s. NTFS isn't supported for OTG)

It's only works with CM10 Alpha 7, because Arco implemented it. See link below how to setup.

Tried with a FAT32 usb key.
Not used external power, I read a tool for fast charge is needed, but not yet tried!

Battery status of Bluetooth device

Hi guys,
I would like to know if there's a possibility to display the battery status of a connected Bluetooth device on the Oneplus 3? Natively or via a third party app? Ideally for me, it should work on the stock ROM but if necessary I would flash a custom one if it would only be possible that way.
Thanks in advance :good:

Check an app called BatON (by limitium)
Have not used it personally though.

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to work with my specific pair of headphones :/ If that means that they don't send battery information to the phone I probably can't get it to work with any solution.

Sorry to hear that.
FWIW after suggesting the app to you, I did try it out. It seemed to work with my pair of blue tooth headphones during the limited time I used it..
Going by the comments about the app in the play store, it looks like the usage is limited based on the manufacturer of the blue tooth device....
Just to close this topic: This feature was released in Open Beta 19 and for me it works great!
how to enable that??? by default its not showing when connected......... im on latest beta

How do you activate it? I have a watch connected and it's not showing anything
I didn't have to activate it. For me it just worked. Your Bluetooth device still has to support sending its battery information to the phone. In this months Open Beta update there were some fixes for this feature. Maybe it works for you now?
Edit: grammar
