[Q] use G2 keyboard to control other android devices possible?

Has anyone found a way to use their G2 keyboard to control other android devices? I know programs like Gmote can control a PC with appropriate server side software installed.
However, I'd love something that allows me to use my G2 keyboard like a standard HID keyboard through bluetooth so I could pair it with another computer without installing the server side software... and better yet, being able to pair and enter text into my android tablet! I hate to carry both devices + a portable keyboard when I have a perfectly good one on my phone already!
Is there something like this out there already? Or could someone easily build one?

App dev

I like to automatize almost everything around me, but by self technology, turn on/off lights, stereos, curtains, home security system (home made) well almost everything that works with electricity, but not only that i do it with a microcontroler board based on dspics and bluetooth modems i designed and developed myself
Until now I use my own software visual. Net based and my own UI, and if I want to access and control the mainboard to modify any settings i got to connect to my comp via wifi/internet but i want something more cool, so i was looking forward to develop android apps that i could manage my dsp main board directly vía bluetooth, I installed sdk a. D all the android stuff following android developer official Google site, but i can not even make the thing run the Hello world program, they skip/asume pro java developers and im new to it.. Does any of you could give me a noob /starter guide.. For android apps dev

You should check out this.
When ever u build this I would love to get a copy of it sounds interesting
for me, by me and I love you
You just have search tutorials on Google. That helped me get over the hump.
Haha ok no problems i plan to put all my apps for free in the Play store and sell the hardware for controling everything vía bluetooth with your phone xD

[Q] [APP] TakeControl -> Remote Control Your Android Phone

For any office jockey types like myself that use a desk dock, I highly recommend checking this app out --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droidcontrol.takecontrol&hl=en
Developer Website -->http://droidcontrol.com/
In essence, your Note 2 just becomes another screen that you can slide your cursor over to and interact with the phone.
I'm in no way affiliated with the app or developer but I posted here because the developer seems to have abandoned the project and I'm hoping for some suggestions/alternatives from XDA.
I was using RootBox on my Note 2 and both the app and ROM worked beautifully... used it over the course of a week and fell in love with both of them.
Long story short, I badly needed (two-way) call recording which I simply couldn't get working on RootBox despite trying Xposed framework, system files, apps etc. so I reverted to Alliance 4.1.2 which is a compromise relative to RootBox BUT call recording is crystal clear...
So what's the problem?
TakeControl no longer works nicely on the TW ROM (only works in the upper 720px region as per the image below) and the developer doesn't seem to be responding... :crying:
And what am I asking?
1. Can anyone suggest a reason why this might be the case and if there's a workaround?:fingers-crossed:​2. If not, does anyone know of a similar app that works? And I'm not talking something like SnapPea and variants​

For remote controlling my phone, I use teamviewer. Samsung has a partnership with TeamViewer to allow you to remote any Samsung phone using either your own phone or the pc version on TeamViewer.
Install this on your phone - TeamViewer QS
and install the PC piece - TeamViewer PC
It works pretty good to controlling your own phone and if your parents need remote help with theirs.

[Q] Multiple ROMs (one rooted, one non-rooted) on same Nexus 7 device?

Hello XDA-Developers!
Here is my dilemma:
I do app security testing for my company and our team talked management into finally buying us a Nexus 7 device for that purpose. My company is also a big customer of Good for Enterprise.
In order to run Good for Enterprise, it means no root, complex password on the lockscreen, and encrypting the filesystem.
Root is pretty much a necessity for my job (being able to pull files out of /data/data/<app> and see what's going on, running shark and other tools, etc.), but I'd still like to be able to have Good on the tablet. The process for evading root (as laid out in this post on XDA: link) is laborious and doesn't yet work for 4.3.
Is there any way I could have seperate Android ROMs running on the device, one with root and one without?
I see MultiROM is in the process of being ported to the new Nexus 7, but I don't know if it's going to work. The version for the old Nexus 7 doesn't support encryption and Good for Enterprise forces it.
Something like SafeStrap would be perfect, but I haven't found anything like it for the Nexus 7.
Maybe I'll be forced to juggle nandroid images of the same OS rooted and non-rooted.
Any suggestions?
I have Android 4.2.2 Nexus 7 running on my PC that I use to test various apps and other functions. This is used by developers but I don't know how useful it will be to you.

One of my co-workers was messing with Genymotion last week.
From what he showed me, it runs in Virtualbox, so I assumed it is the x86-compiled version of Android. Does it have the ability to run ARM-compiled apks?

Tablet mode or multi user mode for GNex?

I want to give my Galaxy Nexus (Verizon) to my youngest son as a wifi only gaming device. I don't want him to have browser or direct Internet access. I basically want restricted user mode like there is on the tablet versions of Android. I have been trying for 2 days to find a way to make that happen. I have multi user setup but the second profile never loads. Has anyone else done this and had success? I am running Cyanogen 11 but I just want anything that will work this way. I have tried Parental control apps but none of them work as well as the restricted profile on tablets either. I don't care what rom I need to run to make this work.
Vanir rom has multi user support like tablets. Should work
