Yo all!!
ok.. i have been trying to get my phone to connect Via HTC sync V2 and latest V3 but have been told that it will not work as we are not using Sence? (FroydVillain 1.5)
if so... i need a little help....
With HTC Sync (before Froyd..), i could get the phone to use the computers internet.
Is there any way of doing this without Sync?
Cheers all
Simple as that! You have FV 1. 5!!!! Just connect the usb cable and enable tethering under >setting >wireless connection, you can now use wireless or 3G with your pc... ;-)

Im confused why would anyone want to use the computers internet connection on a phone when they are tethered?
I can see wanting your computer to use 3G but not the other way around. Am i missing something something here ?

You're definitely missing something,... For people without unlimited data plans maybe?
Or maybe turn off the phone and use the computer?

yes i can see that aps will cost if you've got no data plan with a smart phone, i did have to abort a few auto updates when i was on holiday and being charged roaming rates and now routinely set them to off. If it was me I would look for the apk files from and load them from the sd card or failing that walk the streets looking for an open wifi
had a quick google and found this , hope it help the op

Not heard if it worked for anyone, so thought I'd bump this link again. It sounds like what you're after.
How can I read and reply to SMS messages from my tablet?
I saw an app in the Android Market called SyncMS.
The latest reviews said it is not working as it should.
I'd hate to purchase it and not having working properly.
Has anyone tried it, or know of another app and method that works?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
you can use remote web desktop, and its free too.
I'd take a look at DeskSMS.
I use google voice and works great even had an updated version today.

Don't you need to be US-based to set up/make use of a Google Voice account though?

I have syncsms and it works fine but you need dropbox as well as the messages go through it. Another good one is textab. That one connects phone through bluetooth instead of using dropbox. Pretty handy.

Thanks. I've never heard of Textab. It didn't show up in apps that were related to SyncSMS either.
Which do you prefer between the two?

I think textab is flipping awesome. Ridiculously easy to set up and use. There's a trial version in the market and the full version is available for $2
I use Tablet Talk and it has worked great so far. You can sync via bluetooth or through your wifi network.

I used to use this on my PC. Didn't know they came out with a tablet version.
I like how I can see and reply to all of messages, as well as share text clipboard between my phone and tablet.

Look for texttab in market and try the free verson first. If you get it working I is great.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Textab and Tablet Talk are both nice. Tablet Talk seems to have more features. I have both up and running. Trying to decide which one I want to keep.

This app is awesome. Dev is working hard on future updates too.
I also like how it alerts me for incoming calls. That way I will know who the call is from, and will be able to get to my phone to answer it.

This thing is able to display photos from my laptop without setup. They just show up in photos.
Is this a feature of other phones before s3?

Is this automatic through wi-fi?
If so, can I just go over to some random girl's house hoping for pics?
HAHA, geez people, give the OP a break. Need more info - you must have connected the GS3 to the computer in some way first right?

The new TouchWiz Gallery app builds on the stock ICS offering with a handful of new features. Firstly, if you’re using a Wifi network with any DLNA devices already connected, you’ll see them listed alongside your on-device albums (and any Picasa or Google+ photos, of course). Press the menu key and you’ll find the option to manually scan for nearby DLNA devices.

In my gallery it lists an album with the name of my pc. Try enabling nfc. I was prompted enable it when setting up wallet and they showed up after that.
My computer is set to share files and pictures for homegroup on windows 7. So this might help too.

the other thing that happened on its own was being able to put pictures/videos on my TV without any setup... and its not even a samsung, just a TV connected to my network...
video streamed well, a .mkv video file too... which is playable through the stock video playing app, another nice surprise

Can someone help me, i keep trying but everyone i come up with says they use your wifi or something like that. Can someone suggest one too me or something. thanks a bunch would prefer a free one, but willing to pay if it is really really good.

This is not true. The one on the s4 can add more than two. Go into setting on watchon and select add another device. You can also add another room also. I have mine set up with cable tv and onkyo receiver.
You could also try out Touchsquid. It's a Samsung app for the IR Blaster. I've been using the paid version with great success.

Touchsquid is not a Samsung app.
The app name is 'Samsung remote by Touchsquid' and it works amazing the new version is able to go in portrait mode. I've used I only my tab 2 7.0 and S4.

I always wanted to know that. Is there any way to mirror my desktop's screen to my S4 and then control it? I tried Unified remote, you can just control some stuffs there, but I want something which could mirror my PC's screen, is that possible?
VNC or RDP
Server in one side and the other side is client
You can do it both ways
And you can do it from one mobile to control another mobile too or any other platform
It's possible to do it far remotley by port forwarding in router settings .....
I try it once and its was fun
I was thinking to do a tutorial about that one day
Sent from dish washer
Use phone to PC or the popular splash top.
I recommend splash top as it has it uses your wifi as a intranet so there is very little delay even with a wireless G router

Hey guys sorry for BUMP after a long time.
I have been using Splashtop as per above suggestions and I am very happy with it.
But now I need an app which will do the opposite, I mean I need something which will show my S4's screen to my laptop / PC, and I will be able to control the phone from there, is there any such app?
I have tried AirDroid, don't like it. It shows very limited apps, can't reply to WhatsApp / Hangout messages! Then I tried Team Viewer, didn't do the job either.
TIA.
