Other Uses for WebCam?

If you are in North America or elsewhere that doesn't take advantage of the JasJar's 3G capabilities, I am wondering if the built in WebCam can be used for other things like, well, a WebCam But over Wifi or GPRS or whatever, not 3G. I would assume you would need software that can find and use the camera, but I don't know if there's any way to do it. Anyone heard anything about this possibility?

I keep meaning to try MS Portrait to see if it can be used on the Jas Jar with the VGA cam. Has anyone tried it yet?

I guess if you could compile vlc on this plateform, you could stream the webcam through the wifi or even record it.
VLC play lot of differents file it's worth to spend 5h to get the right option for the compilation.
(for those who don't know VLC it's an open-source software and free )

Yes, I tried. No success on behalf of missing camera driver.
Incoming video and sound is ok. Has anyone hacked the camdrv.dll / CameraDriver.dll ?
MS, pls. spend MS Portrait 2.4 !

Anyone have succes working with HTC P3600 and RemoteControl II, v2.12 ??
http://www.wincesoft.de/html/remotecontrol_ii.html

.... Novii don't work for me
hi castravete,
I've try Novii remote (last version) on my Trinity , but no way to get working...
This app run, but my tv don't receive signal...
I think is my Rom (French 2.4.1 rom by FAMAN).
Can other people test this app or other and tell me if is my rom ?
thx for all ;-)

it has a range of like 1m though... fairly useless imo

i've gotten up to 2m range with various htc devices
but the real tricky part is that not being a consumer ir
you have to aim
pointing in the general direction is a no go

Gimmic
Yeah if they could work at a greater distance then that would be good, The only thing I've found them good for is annoying the Currys, Comet and PC world assistants.
'Can I help you sir?'
Yeah is your TV compatible with my PDA?
'Sorry Sir'
Oh it appears it is *taps on Trin screen*
Oh, dvd player as well!
Shocked look from the assistant

I am having issues with Novii on my trinity. It is annoying with these codes, I am wondering if there is a better application for remotes.

the range is too limted, cant remember the one 1 tried (sorry) but it was about 1.5 away from tv

I think it's cause : most of this ROM nowaday is disabled or can't control IR via Commanager (i mean ROM for P3600 nearest...).
So, someone try downgrade ver ROM and test again all this stuff???
So please,someone make it for all.
sorry for my worst english...

Brilliant.
I love it.
Must try that some time.

Hello, I have got two PDA, HP HX4700 and HTC P3600. Novii remote with the HP 4700 has a range of 15mt the P3600 only 1 mt. The internal codes of noviremote works fine with the HP HX4700 but doesn't works with P3600. The only way to use noviremote with P3600 is use the learning mode for every device, I don't know why.

remote control
I use to have a samsung IP 830 from sprint that phone had an amazing remote control application it would be great if someone could hack it like they did with other apps from samsung devices

guys, I would like to remind you that IR Range is a function of your device not the remote control app. IR comm was only mainly developed for device to device communication at close range.
ie iPAQ h2200 IR range is about 6 inches
iPAQ rx3715 IR range is about 10+ FEET

Z4Music
Syntrax

My phones: HTC Blue Angel :: HTC Universal :: Nokia E65 :: SE Xperia (HTC Kovsky)

thanks a lot ..i was looking for such kind of app exactly.

Try this DJ Party Mixer!
It lets you even mix mp3s on your phone.

[Q] Defy+ as GPS-Receiver for Win8 - No Connection

Hello,
i want to use my Motorola Defy+ as a gps-receiver for my Asus W510 with win8
The Defy+ is rooted and i installed CM7.2.0
There exists several apps for this feature, i tried 3:
- Bluetooth-GPS-Leistung (Play Store)
- ShareGPS (Play Store)
- ExtGPS (Play Store)
On the W510 i used two programms to test the GPS-Signal:
- FreeGPS
- Oziexplorer
The procedure is, when i understand this correctly:
When i start the programm in windows, it tries all the COM-Ports and when it reaches the bloototh-outgoing-com-port ist makes an outgoing connection trough this port to
the gps-mouse (in this case to my defy).
The Defy registrates this and enables the bluetooth-connection.
So, the app can send the gps to the w510.
Pairing is not the problem and i got the correct outgoing-com-port in windows.
But i always had the same problem: The connection is there for a second, than fails. And again for a second, then fails.
I can see this in some of the apps.
The problem is the same with all of the apps and with the two programms on the w510.
So i tried it with my desktop-pc on win7 with a bluetooth-dongle and had the same problem.
So i think that must be a problem with the mobile!
Perhaps you have some ideas or there is someone who tried this bevor?
Thank you!

Wow, hadn't thought of sharing phone gps with a computer! I tried extGPS on Slimbean (JB4.1) and Google Earth on my Win8 laptop, it worked perfectly fine. Dunno how well it works on CM7, sorry!

Hey,
can you tell me, what mobile you used?
I tried it now with a gps-mouse (Wintec WBT 202) and it works perfectly. So it should be a problem with my mobile.
Now i heard about changing the Baud-Rate at Win8. I should try this. Is it possible to change the Baud at the mobile too? Or only on the pc?

I used my MB526, did no configuration on my phone and on my laptop except for pairing the two before launching the respective softwares on both.

Ok, thanks. I will try this again and report.

[Q] Android on my W.M. Device

Hi everybody!
I have a Windows Mobile 6 device and I want to install Android on it. (Possibly the 2.3 version)
I have read some threads on XDA and I have learned that there are a lot of softwares to boot Android on W.M. devices. (not using nand-roms and deleting W.M.)
1---Can you explain me about:
--XDAndroid
--Gen.Y DualBOOT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
--OS Loader (I tryed it and it doesn't work) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057216
--HARET...
--Others... ?
I ask you because now a lot of people use Android with their HTC devices but No one have tryed to put it on my device.
I have a Toshiba G910 with a Qualcomm CPU and an High Resolution Screen (WVGA).
For me it's really possible to put Android on it because the Toshiba G900 is almost identical to my G910
and on Youtube I see a lot of G900 owners boot Android through some apps.

2---My device is landscape (800x480)...Somewhere I have read that Gen.Y runs Android only in Portrait mode...
On youtube there are some HTC TouchPro2 owner that use Android also in Landscape...
Let's See the image of the second video... https://www.youtube.com/results?sea...-1j1.2.0...0.0...1ac.1.11.youtube.CB-2CkQMF7Q (Android is Landscape)
3---Also the HTC Tytn II and the Sony Ericcson X1 are similar to my device. I found Android for them and I will probably try these version on my device...It will work for you?
(My thread about X1=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406795)
4---Now I want to make a proper Android Rom for my device but I don't know well how to do it
