I travel by train pretty much, and I have a HTC Universal. Since I can make use of UMTS i was wondering if i could let my universal act as an accespoint, so that i can use it as router for my Nintendo DS to play online in the train. Is there some way to do this?
Its possible, using a java program to add router software to your universal. Try googling it a bit.
Surur
Hey if you find something keep us posted will ya?
i can only find lots of Telnet clients and tutorials how to connect your ppc to a router ~ ___~);;' no luck yet.
oops i cried too early Xp I found it

The first part says:
Just get the HTTPSnoopProxy.class file, copy it to, say, the root of your "access point" Pocket PC and get a decent Java Virtual Machine (I recommend CrEme 4.00 because of its superior speed, reliability and moderate memory consumption).
Seems like only web surfing will be allowed.
I got an idea when i saw this line in the link you provided:
"To share an Internet connection, you'd need operating system-level support for connection sharing as is present in, say, the desktop Windows"
I bet Linux has this. And since some smart people here has managed to get linux running on the Universal this might just be possible.
Is there anyone reading this with some linux knowlage that knows how to set this up in linux?

Have you tried it? If so does it work?
I would love to setup my Jasjar as a WiFi access point using 3G, now that Vodafone IE have an unlimited 3G data plan.
How about making some sort of quasi proxy/(repeater or relay) site on a home PC?
I'm thinking of some way to pass parameters as part of the URL for port forwarding to a proxy site that forwards to the intended destination site.
would you enjoy gaming on your DS with 200msec ping times? UMTS is fast but ping times are almost as high as GPRS's...
I this this would be a great project for someone like vjay, I'd certainly pay for an app that lets me use my universal as a wireless access point.

SAME HERE!!
I've been looking for a thread like this for a long time now and finally found it!
Otherwise I've would've made one myself with the same question..
Is there any progress about this issue?
Plz let me /us know...

Well, I'd say it depends on the GSM operator. My UMTS ping times (Europe) are generally (well) under 100 ms.

Not yet. I'm, however, pushing Microsoft (in internal forums) very hard to implement REAL connection sharing - some kind of an extended version of the AKU3+ Internet Sharing tool.
Isn't internet connection sharing enabled in Crossbow?

I would love to see this wonderful program being ported to WinMo, as there is even a great port of it for the iPhone.
Who's Interested in developing this?
I would've done it by now, but have no prior or current programing experience what-so-ever.
Sweet
I didn't know there was soulseek for the iphone. that is sweet. Lets rally em up boys. Develop WMSLSK. Show em how its done.
Theirs gotta be someone who's at least mildly interested, Please post a reply saying you may give this a chance, or even better a GO.
I wish
I wish I was a programmer. Sadly I only know web design type stuff. If you don't know what soulseek is check out http://www.slsknet.org
This is a great idea!
That's not a bad idea. There used to be an eDonkey client for ppc called Mopiphant, but it was more of a proof of concept. I enjoy using Wuzam to download songs on the go, though lately I've had best results with Opera as they've revamped the site. I also recommend JimmyR.com's mp3 search which is a frontend for searching google for mp3's. Might be two good alternatives until a PPC port of a good P2P program is developed.
Cheers
So I did some searching around and I remembered a program from years back called "Pocket G2" which had it's development ceased for some reason. But I checked it out again and actually found a downloadable copy here: http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/2/4/734745/PocketG2Pro-2401_PPC.ARM.CAB
Anywho, here's the dirt. Pocket G2 requires a 3.3 mb install and Net1.0CF which is included in the hefty install. I couldn't get any searches to work at first, but I looked around and found this Gnutella network server cache http://gcachescan.jonatkins.com/
Just click on a few of the server addresses on that site and copy the url into G2 so you'll be able to search the network. The url's should start with http:// ... and end with .php, though others may work, I haven't yet tested as the setup I have now seems to work fine for me. I did experience a crash when my device powered off and brought up S2U2.. not sure if disabling power management would fix the issue or if there is a conflict there, but I'll keep testing and post an update later. Let me know what you guys think.
Cheers

Ive actually tried Pocket G2. its extremely buggy, always crashing, and even left minimized would eventually terminate.
Ugh, i would totally LOVE to see a Soulseek port for WinMo... I have Winmobile Torrent for my phone already, Making me feel a lot better that my phone can actually be used in advantageous moments. (w00t big words )
Otherwise, i looked around, not really many notable P2P Apps for Mobiles yet... such a shame. Sept wmtorrent.
rebump :-/
Comn peoples, is there not 1 person who is capable of coding this? Should i ask the guy who ported it to iPhone to make a WinMo Port? he probably has no Coding experience for WinMo tho...
ANYONE~~!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
been using g2 for about a year, the alpha and the beta are in the list on my sig.
it does crash on occasion but the beta is fairly stable
I got the idea to make a application finder software for Windows Mobile. Specially designed to HTC Diamond, with many G-apps & games and other nice apps. It's under development now, and i will release one screenshot for you.
This app will not be just an styled IE-frame, like many "appstore" like apps that have been released before.
19. October 2008:
New Screenshot of the start screen.
Development stopped, becouse of the Gecko project.
I think this is a phenominal idea. The idea that went around recently was an internet based solution through ie explorer and it just was not device friendly. To have a device based solution is much more sensable. If you could create a server that developers could upload their most recent programs too that would be the best.
Maybe contact the system admin on this site and see if he will give your program to access the sites FTP server or something. Then a user could use your device based program that would seemlessly connect to the interenet in the back ground, poll the server for software, sort it and place it into a thumb friendly interface on the phone by which it could be sorted into categories of games, utilities, themes, programs etc etc....
Of course the admin would have to create those categories on the site's side and the developers would need to upload their program to the correct one but I think everyone has been in such a need for this that they would be willing to do it without much arm twisting.
Or, you could create device user interface that interacts with Orb.com... But then you would have to get the updates of programs and upload them to ORB for your program to work. But ORB does already have a sorting feature that your user controls on the device could be made to access for sorting etc. It even has a video section that a user could download tutorials of different programs that someone took time to make.
All just ideas. Some you may find good or not. I am excited to see a device based program though. It make user intereaction easier.
Curious G.
yes
Its a good idea, keep working on it
seems to be a nice idea
I like the idea but this really depends on what will be offered / how updated the actual site behind the store application is. Have you had any thoughts on that yet?
i second that.
at this time i browse via opera tho xda to download stuff... but having a app that simplifies things would be even better...
maybe all the downloads here could be managed and put upto "youre" server in an automated way..
I remember seeing this article a few weeks ago about Microsoft creating their own app store.
http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/n.../job-advert-reveals-microsoft-skymarket.phtml
Either way, it's certainly a good idea!!
I forward the notion. An app that has all the apps at hand for easy download by category would kick some serious asss..
If I can help in any way let me know.
Greetings to all.
Love this development. Maybe this progress will open up eyes on new skilful programmers and we will see an increase of good looking apps and games. Not that I don't just love the things going on here at xda. But the more the merrier, right? The only complaint that I might have on this forum is the all the threads with wallpapers and especially the ones with half-naked women...But that's me...
So an app store (or two) is going to make it easier for us to sort out what we are interested in and only that.
If needed count me in I can help develop..
Great idea.
In the spirit of AppToDate, which I found worked very very well. But with YouTube-app like interface, all connected to database were latest apps can get installed.
Great idea!
I'm working to figure out how to connect to MySQL from a windows mobile based device, does anyone here know?
double post****
i think if these two threads could be incorporated
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428480
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433913
that would be a good way to do storage
each developer could use have there own account and then whenever they updated there app they update the wapps link via web or give it like some type of flash capabilities that would be really great
or there could be a generic account that ever one uses to upload too
looks like this is in the works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436127
maybe some collabo might be nice
Nice project!! GoOd Luck!!
If there was a way to advertise this app when it gets made. the diamond would sell millions
Why not just modify a RSS feed reader?

Maybe Sqlite is more accurate for a mobile device ?
And you just download the sqlite file available on a server, this way requests would be very fast.

Yes, every time you start it will update from the web or you can click on a button to update (or an 'update every x minutes' function
please keep up the hard work!!!!! love to see this appstore happen!
Has anybody seen, or considered developing a program similar to WAMP (Windows Apache MySQL PHP) for the Android?
I've always been interested in hosting my own sites, and usually purchased the hosting simply because I never leave a computer on all day.
But given I leave my phone on all day, who's to say there can't be an application developed to host and constantly stream a website from the phone itself?
Would anybody be interested in developing something like this? I'd honestly throw down 10 bucks in android market for such a thing.

First, why? what's your use case? You're going to host websites to the internet off your 1Ghz mobile device? interesting thought but it'd be cheaper and less stress to just pay that web host.
Second, that'd be one hell of a way to chew through your battery?

Thirdly, you will have high bills for your transfer and users will have to wait ages for page to load.
Ahh and if you really want to do this, then you shouldn't think about neither Apache, MySQL nor PHP. You should use, what you have onboard: sqlite + Java (or maybe C) + some simple HTTP server (Java or C).
It wouldn't necessarily be for a professional site so to speak, more or less to fool around with.
For example (even though having use of facebook renders this completely useless) a blog hosted directly from the phone. Or with password protection, an over-the-web ftp to add apps to your phone from anywhere should you not have your cord on you.
Just little things to play with.
Nice addition Brut. But to clear the confusion, by saying WAMP, I was simply using it as a reference tool to get the point I was trying to make across. I didn't mean actually waste time making a work-around apache server on the droid, but simply a program that uses what's available on the phone to achieve the same ends.
Thanks for the input gents.
@Ruxton as far as chomping away at the battery, I wouldn't suspect it would use a high amount for what the uses are. Now to host some high-traffic sort of thing like google.com for example, ha, there really wouldn't be a chance to use the phone before it died. But as stated in my last post, little things for small uses. Of course, I didn't specify that in the topic start.

5 seconds (really!) searching on Google ;-) It's everything you need and I doubt you will find something better
What kills me, is I searched google for such apps using keywords (no lie, straight from my cookies) "Turning android into webserver" "host webserver from android" and "webserver app for android".
And then you come back with this. How peachy.

I'm quite sure that I requested "android http server", but now I don't see that site in search results I think it was a miracle! ;-D
EDIT:
Ahh, I have mistaken, it is right on top of results ;-)

The magic behind that miracle was that one acronym, http. Had I only used that.. lol
Another problem is connecting to your phone from rest of the world. Does your telecom give you external IP? Is it static (but this could be fixed using dynamic DNS)?
MediaWiki on Android?
Hi...
I'm interested in an "AAMP" too as I have lots of information stashed away on my laptop via MediaWiki running on WAMP. I'd love to be able to carry it around with me on my mobile phone by uploading it from my laptop's MySQL DB onto the phone (in my case, HTC Desire) if it can run "AAMP".
I just downloaded i-Jetty and what I can do with it isn't entirely apparent. Is it something that would run an AAMP and therefore allow me to do the above?
Cheers..

Not sure why the thank button is so close to the quote button... but oh well, I digress.
Have you considered dumping static pages from your mediawiki setup and then pushing those to the phone? If you don't need to edit the content, then having the full db backend on the phone is pointless. Just set up a script to dump the all the pages in an elegant way (wget comes to mind but there is probably a better way) and then bundle them for transfer to the phone.
Thanks for reply! Sorry for delay (floods tend to take you off the grid).
Not a bad idea about dumping static pages..but I would like to be able to navigate around & search through the mediawiki. Anyone have thoughts on AAMPing a mediawiki?
AAMPing a MediaWiki?
Anyone have any further thoughts or smart ideas on pulling this off?
Have you tried PAW Server?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Thanks for the reply. PAW server is an interesting bit of kit and certainly is a demonstration of what the device can serve up.
However..it isn't exactly what I'm trying to achieve. Basically...I need something which will run the php files and the MySQL database which are what MediaWiki is comprised of.
Whilst I could simply generate static pages from my Wiki's & read them directly on the phone, this means I lose all the advantages of links & searching which is one of the reasons why I put my notes in a MediaWiki to start off with.
So..anyone know of something like an AAMP?

I am looking for analysis tools specific for Android app development!
I have found many tools online that are not specific for Android, only for Java, either free or commercial, like the famous FindBugs but it is not interprocedural so for example it loses several bad NullPointerExceptions that may occur at runtime! Other tools (like CheckStyle) perform just a syntax check that sometimes is not so powerful, and other tools are not suitable for Android app development
What are, among the available tools, those that you prefer and really use?
What kind of properties do these tools check?
What kind of bugs do these tools detect and remove (among the most common errors that an Android developer may do)?
Please help me with sharing your experiences and suggestions, thanks!
Nobody uses any tool for detecting bugs?
What kind of bugs are you specifically looking for? Solving NullPointers is hard to do automatically, it'll probably just show you where the error is and what it is.
And the emulator/logcat does that, too...

I would like to detect the most common errors that may happen during Android app development, like NullPointerExceptions, ClassCastExceptions, OutOfMemory Errors, and so on... but with tools like FindBugs that don't need to execute the app first.

I don't think that's really possible, it would have to be able to reason about and come up with the behaviour of your code like a human... Computers need to run it. The easiest thing you'll get right now is an explanation of what went wrong where, I think...

If you run FindBugs in your source code, it is able to detect many things, like potential NullPointerExceptions, before running your app...but unfortunately it is not powerful enough to detect interprocedural NullPointerExceptions...that's the reason I am looking for something different...

Yep, that's what I meant. Anyhow, I don't know about anything like it .
The Android SDK provides some API for automatic testing.
You will need to create a test project which checks the functions you want to achieve.
This can be used to ensure that your app is still working correctly after adding new features.
Hi
"static analysis tools" is probably the term you want to be using when looking for these sort of tools, the wikipedia page give a good selection to be going on with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tools_for_static_code_analysis
Although I would add that if you're getting a lot of these sort of errors then you probably need to work on your own code writing skills and take the time to understand how and when these sort of issues occur rather than just relying on a plethora of tools which keep you dumb to what's going on! You'll benefit from it in the long run
One thing you might give a try is JetBrains Android Studio. It seems to have a decent static analysis tool which is the same used for ReSharper with Visual Studio.
Try Lint, it comes with ADT,
with Eclipse you can right click your project, ans under android tools you will see something like check lint errors
It will create lots of errors, which are just recomendations, you can simply delete those errors.
Tapatalked... just Tapatalked...
If you're mainly looking for a way to detect NPEs then IntelliJ/Android Studio comes with NPE (and other exceptions) detection. It's based on a new set of annotations implemented in the latest SDK and is very accurate, much better than Eclipse's code analysis.
But honestly, the best tool to find bugs remains Logcat imo, it's verbose enough to find-out the origin of most bugs.
