there is no word about be able to do webcamera on a windows pc with the phone... sorry orb live wont do it
i would like to use the nexus one as a webcamera for my laptop and viewing webcams on the n1...

I've done it with orb... no problem.
Make sure you set up their latest edition and use it through the web browser. Their app sucks... through the browser its free

I can see how you can use a PC Webcam and bring it to the N1 using this software, but I really don't see how to do the opposite.
How do I use the N1 as the webcam that's viewable on a PC?

qik anybody?

google it. i know there is a dev out there who has a working on on 1.6. He hasent done 2.1 yet because he does not have a N1 to test with. currently i do not believe their is an app or way to do this yet

I have "googled it". What search terms would you suggest to get some relavent results? When I do searches I typically end up with two hits that at first seem like they might be useful. The first goes to google's forum and is worthless... the next one links to this very thread.
Two different people here have said they've done it with orb... it's pretty reasonable to ask them how they did it since doing searches on orb's site don't give anything fruitful.

Why do you keep posting off topic?
Let's start over and read the question being asked and see if there's a solution.
We all know that Orb will let you stream a webcam that's connected TO YOUR PC to your phone.
That is NOT what we're trying to accomplish.
We'd like to be able to (as the thread states) "N1 using as a webcam" Use the N1's built in camera to stream live video to another place.
I would like to be able to set the phone down, aim it's camera at something and then have someone else... PC across the planet... whatever... be able to see what the phone is aimed at.
Does anyone know how to do that?

Now that's what I'm talkin about. Good find. Will try out and report back.
*edit* This must have been removed from the market. I even went to the publisher's page on the phone and clicked the market link they have there and it takes you to a "no matches" page... boo...
do you still have the 0.4 apk?

I do. I'll rip it when I get home if I remember, but you'll also need a software client on the PC side which I do not have.
Looks like it's still here though: http://www.placaware.com/?page_id=6

Yea, that's the point I'm at... I wonder why they took it down.
The only issue I'm seeing is that they say it only gets 3fps... that ... kinda sucks.
*edit* and thanks for grabbin the apk off your phone later.. I appreciate it.

Another issue I'm having, and maybe it's just because I don't have it attached to a computer yet, but everything is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise on my n1 and a portion of the bottom mirrors the image.

Monitor out for 8525 (Hermes, TyTn)

Is there a way to connect my 8525 to an external monitor? My bluetooth keyboard and mouse work great -- now if I could connect an external monitor, this can become one hell of a tool!
This sounds cool, not sure what I'd use it for at this moment but still a good idea.
Does anyone know if there is a cable that can do this for the 8525?
not the anwser you are looking for
I know this is not what you want. The link below is to software that will allow you to view your phones screen on your computers monitor, and control it with your computer mouse and keyboard.
My Mobiler v1.0
Maybe it will be the answer for some people.
Definitely not what the OP was asking for, but damn cool just the same.
Thanks for that link. I'm not sure I even wanted, let alone needed that app, but I'm certainly going to use it now.
anyone know is this exists
I have been searching for something like this as well. If anyone knows of a cable for monitor out or if it is even possible I would appreciate knowing as well thanks.

Well, you havn't tried SOTI POCKET CONTROLLER yet. That one is commercial but has even lots of other stuff integrated, such as screen capture, screen recording and a DOS prompt box ...

There used to be a manufacturer making SD cards with TV-out for making presentations from a ppc. Not seen one for a while! If I remember correctly you used to be able to get them from expansys...

What Kind of Internet Browser is this?

Saw this on youtube.com. It is similar to the IPhone browser. The browser where you view the entire page then you can zoom in on certain part.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LP_rMefqWj8&feature=related
I asked this question a couple of weeks ago, and was told it's MS Deepfish.
It looks pretty good, but is a closed beta at the moment and lacks a lot of vital functions for a browser (form posting, cookies etc..)
It does look good though, although the last I heard was that MS weren't going to carry on developing it - they are working on something better.

The reason you guys didn't see the mention of warez is because he already edited it.
Anyway, Ateksoft works well.. I've tried it, but your PPC has to be connected via Activesync (via USB or Bluetooth). So I don't know if it will work via WiFi.

I can confirm that WebCamera Plus works over Wifi, as I have tested it...
my software dont seem to work... Only by wifi. I would love to use my 3g connection but the webcamplussrv seems to hook up with a ip adress that is: 169.254.2.2:2047 wich is not my local ip. So whenever I try to connect to my puplic ip I just get timeouts...
Any stuff I missed here?
you probably have to set up DMZ
Can we use the Ateksoft act as CCTV?
How can I link the Ateksoft(through wifi) to my CCTV server?

Software to view webcam ?

Is there any software or service or something like that with which i can view the webcam at home through my cellphone. i need i to work with the t-mo proxy, even images taken every couple secs would work.
Thanks in advance
I have some software at home that does this.. so if no one comes up w the answer by the time I get home, I'll post it.
Even a website or something that can be viewed as a stream by the wing would work.
Any1 know something like that ?

Hmm it says its suppose to work but i cant get it to work with my webcam, anyone tried this ?

thanks for ur help though =)
UCee offers exactly what im looking for but i cant get it 2 work.. =/
Ok you have a webcam running on a home PC and you want to be able to view that cam anytime from your wing right?
Run Active webcam PLUS at home and it has an option to run a webbased viewer.
http://www.pysoft.com/ActiveWebCamMainpage.htm
You will have to open your firewall maybe to get the webcam to go out and publish the page.

Screen Sharing for Honeycomb

Hello,
Does anyone no of any way to do screensharing on a device that has honeycomb?
thanks
Jason
what exactly do you mean by screen sharing? Do you mean having two or more apps on the screen at once? If so, then no, that is not currently possible.
No, I mean I have someone that has problems with their device and I want to troubleshoot from a distance through some remote access program.
They exist for PC/MAC. Trying to find solution for Android
oh, I see. that would be nice.. haven't heard of anything like this yet though
You mean remote desktop connection? I know you can sideload TeamViewer which allows you to control Mac OSX or Windows 7 computer from your Android device, don't know if its tablet optimized yet or not.
See if WebKey works on honeycomb. I don't have a Tab yet, but use it all the time for demoing apps/giving presentations from my android.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I thought someone was deving a VNC for Android. The current beta has a lot of problems and doesn't work really well..but I think it'll get there eventually.
Until then there's no easy way to remote to a Android "desktop" yet.
