Hi.
Can I use my rooted Motorola RAZR as an USB webcam?
I am not sure about using it as a USB Camera, however, I do know that you can use it as an IP Webcam by installing this from Google Play!
I currently am using an old HTC Incredible for this very purpose! It works over WiFi, then I have port forwarding configured on my router so me and my wife can view it on our Smartphones from anywhere via WiFi or internet!

When using MobilAP, or USB tether, on my Captivate, I could not play a video, or watch a slide presentation at FoxNews. Before applying a stock rooted rom to my AT&T SGS2, I was using PDANet to tether my phone and I could watch both. Now that I have the stock MobilAP(Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot) and USB tethering working on my SGS2, it acts the same as my Captivate. I did find that by enabling USB Debugging, as PDANet instructs you to do, the stock USB tethering will play the videos and the slide shows; however, Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot will not play them.
I can't seem to tether my internet connection to my xoom through bluetooth. It says, paired but not connected. And it won't connect. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
I've never tried it through Bluetooth, but why don't you try WiFi Tether instead? It should perform better than BT.
Cheers!

If it doesn't work natively then search for an app from the market or online. If you get one online make sure you get an antivirus...

Read up on it, it supports usb teather to a computer, or bluetooth/wifi to a computer or another phone.
PRemoteDroid is an awesome app! It allows for wifi or bluetooth remote access to your synced computer. Check it out...I use it in my classroom all the time!

So I am installing a android tablet into my cars dash to use as navigation/entertainment etc..
I was lookign around for anyway to have a rearview camera display on the tablet but have come up empty.
Im wondering though. If I took a wireless IP camera and installed in the car and figured out the power issue. Could I then turn on my X2's mobil hotspot have camera connect to that and then use a ip camera app on the tablet to view the camera? Creating a rearview camera.
Not sure if the camera would connect to internet with phone the same way as a router.
Anyone know?
Thanks

Interesting idea. I just tried using IP Webcam on my DX2 and it worked out fine.

I started the hotspot, connected with my laptop, started the IP Webcam service on the phone and then connected with my browser--no problemo. I don't know how the browser on your tablet will respond, but it's certainly worth a try.
One note: I did have to turn off Droidwall, even with the connection set to "allowed", it still wouldn't connect.
Gear I used:
DX2 running Eclipse 2.0.4
Built in tethering/hotspot
IP Webcam
Laptop running Ubuntu
FireFox browser
So used the app that turns your phone into an IP camera?
Im trying to take an actual Ip camera and view it on a tablet, using the phone hotspot to get the camera online.
Hey guys, I am connecting my normal uvc webcam to my Galaxy s5 via USB OTG, and using the app called camerafi to display the stream.
Works great. But now I'm arresting to better understand the actual connection and how data is being transfered to the phone from the webcam.
I'm sure it's not via any network protocol, but I'm really not sure what interface connection is being used. And also how to check the connection, like using adb in some way.
Any help is super appreciated!

I am using the DSLR Controller on a Motorola G smart phone together with a Canon EOS 7D. In this Setup both the USB cable Connection as well as the Wi-fi Version via the router works perfectly.
I have now purchased a new Smartphone, namely the LG X210 and installed the app on it. Unfortunately, neither the USB cable Connection nor the Connection via the Wi-Fi router works. I only get the message that no USB or WiFi device can be detected. The Android Version is the 5 Version.
Is anybody using the LG X210 phone successfully with that app? Any other LG phone that works? Any other suggestions/tips that could make the app running on that phone?
Thanks for your help.
