Hi everybody
I have a Android based tablet(junpad, like flypad) that i have as a spotify player.
Now i woundering if ther is any apps that make it possible for me to use my galaxy s or laptop as a remotecontrol to change track etc, etc. have looked at Remote Web Desktop but i cant control spotify through that. And DroidMote Server does not work on the tablet for some reason.
So, is there any aps out there that fits me?
I can connect a wireless usb mouse to the tablet, but how cool is that? Would be nice with a app or something
No one knows anyting that can work?
I'm gonna drudge this up instead of starting a new thread. Same question. I would like to control Spotify from my Galaxy Tab 10.1 with my Galaxy S III...
... also same questiion....
Did you get any further with this?
It would be great if Spotify could enable an option to play music on any other device (with the same user registered).
My best solution so far is with Spot Commander; an android application which controls a spotify server on a Linux netbook.
But I'd prefer to use an obsolete Android phone - since it would use much less power - also in stand-by. Another idea - perhaps the spot commander server application (which is Open Source) could be ported to the Raspberry Pi.
Media Remote
Media Remote by appshroom works but is pretty limited.
Hey folks,
Sorry to kick up an old thread, but I was Googling around to find the answer to the question posed above and I thought maybe answering this thread would help the next guy. It seems that if you want to control Spotify on Android from another Android, you can do so using DroidRemote. The downside to doing it this way is that it uses bluetooth.
I'd really prefer a way to do it via WiFi as its' range is higher and I don't have to turn on the bluetooth radio just for this purpose, which in turn consumes my precious mAh's. It'd also be dandy if I could use my Windows box to control Spotify on Android.
This Galaxy Tab 2 will do nicely as a Spotify player but controlling it remotely would be even more boss.
Hello,
Is there any new solution to remote control Spotify on tablet from a phone ? Is there no tweak available or mod ? Even if you root your phone / tab ?
Regards.

I second this question.
I have a small Minix as my spotify player connected to my TV and surround system. I have been searching forever for a solution that will allow me to control the Minix spotify session from my Nexus7 Tablet.
Any suggestions? Please!!!!!

I use my car dock and I'm glad to have it. However, I don't like several aspects of it. I'd like to be able to change what apps it gives shortcuts for (specifically want google play music and pandora) and want it to auto start bluetooth (but not auto turn-off when removed). Would anyone point me at instructions for modding the factory app or make any recommendations for 3rd part apps?
I like an app called Car Widget at the Play store?.
Google Car Home still works on this phone, you need to hunt down the apk, it won't show available in the market.
Hey guys,
Just bought the Tablet s and have a few things annoying me, and would like some advice on other stuff.
1. Ive read everywhere that the WiFi is an issue with these tablets. After a few hours trolling the forums, i found advice on getting 2 apps to force the WiFi to stay connected (WiFi Fixer and WiFi Lock). i have found i am still having disconnection issues when these two apps ( along with the stock settings) are set to never turn off.
2. Im using DLNA to network the tablet to my pc via WiFi, and am using the PS3 Media Server to access my drives. i have no problems using the PS3 Media Server through my PS3 or through my PSP. the issue is that whenever i wish to watch a movie on the tablet, it says " This device cannot play this content" (beit MKV AVI or MOV). also just viewing pictures it wont load the picture properly, just a blurry low quality version of it. what would be the best way to network the tab to the pc?
3. Using the Media Remote i have found that once i have programmed in the buttons (learning from a device) it drops the learning and i have to re program the buttons (not all, maybe just a few). also is there a way to get the skins of the remote your programming instead of the basic remote it gives you?
4. How can i get the first page to be the main page that shows up after unlocking the tab? as it is business use and i dont want to have them see all the apps i have loaded when i unlock the screen to show them products
Thanks for your help, and yes, ill continue to troll the forums for answers!
Okay. Here are most of your answers:
1. I use Advanced Wifi Lock. Besides that change the wifi sleep policy in advanced (of wifi settings) to Never. Havent had a single problem since!
2. Not very good in this area. I suppose you need a better video player. Try moboplayer from the play store. You would need to download the codecs after installing the app.
Note: Dont expect to play 1080/720p videos across wifi!
3. Havent heard of the stock app forgetting the ir codes. Contact einschnaehkee in this thread ( forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1324479 ) and request him for a beta of his perfect replacement to the stock sony remote app.
4. Use a more advanced launcher. Download ADWLauncher from the play store. Allows you to set the main home screen and choose which apps will appear in the drawer!
So you've got a Q, and you've learned how to adb install apps to it... maybe even put a launcher on. But if you've got an NFC capable phone/tablet, you need not mess around with a launcher: your device will be your launcher.
As most of you probably know, the Q ships with a fully capable NFC radio. But for whatever reason, google only ever gave it one official function... beaming out a link the the Q App in the Play Store. Even if you already have it installed. They could have just as easily used a tag to do that job. But I've discovered that if you're running a sideloaded app, the Q will beam that app to your phone. Clearly, we're dealing with a fully beam-compatible device.
However, the Q is programmed to automatically push it's beam out when it finds a device that can receive it. To overcome this, you must open settings (either via a launcher or via adb shell, this is well-documented) and go to the "more" menu. Turn Android Beam OFF while leaving NFC on. This allows the Q to still read your incoming beams (they act just like tags, for compatibility) but it stop apps from opening unexpectedly on your phone.
Once you've done that, you can open any app installed on your Q simply by opening it on your phone/tablet and beaming it over. You'll still need a mouse or keyboard to navigate, but you won't have to futz around with getting to the launcher. This is working on my unrooted Q.
(I don't think this has been discussed before. I hope someone finds it useful!)
Thanks for the info, I was actually wondering whether this was available on the stock firmware. When you say you still need to launch/control with OTG, do things like Youtube links not autoplay when Beamed?

This basically opens the app like an android app on the Q. To click on things you need a mouse and an otg cable.

Animal24 has it right. And yes, it's available stock and unrooted. If you send a video to the Q, it will still work. However, when the video stops, it will return to the open app, not the standard home screen. If I recall correctly, music will play in the background if an app is open, and the lights will not dance.
That all said, I haven't used the Q since the new music lauched. :/

With CM10.1 and XBMC, I'm planning on using the Q to replace my Revue. I'm all OTA so I don't have a cablebox for the Revue to interface with, and with Aptoide I'm going to see if I can get the new Primetime working on the Q for finding and watching shows from Netflix/etc. Hopefully some year Primetime will do generic Amazon links instead of the GoogleTV apps. I'm using the new Play Music on my Q and using my phone as a remote. I've discovered that I can't seem to beam from the new Play Music to another device, or at least when I do it won't autoplay.

How are you doing this? ATM, I'm using BubbleUpNp from both sides, Q and phone. This allows me to still use Google Music as well as All Access. If there is a way to get the stock aplication to work in any way, please share

Hi FadedLite,
I'm using DroidMote to use my phone as a remote to the Nexus Q. I also use ShareKM, another fantastic option that lets me mouse "over" to my Nexus Q from my laptop and control the cursor with my laptop's mouse. One thing I need to figure out is a way to trigger DroidMote Server and ShareKM to start listening on boot, otherwise I have to use my OTG plugged mouse to open the programs and start them up once.
To use Google Music with All Access on the Q, as I stated I'm running CM 10.1 and they have a Gapps package that gives you the Play Store and Play Framework, so you can install Google Play Music and Movies & TV, etc.
Hello, I have just bought a PX6 Android Headunit for the car. so far it has been pretty easy to install, and modify. The problem I have run into, is modifying the Steering wheels buttons. The Headunit uses a pre-installed app called WheelKey Study V1.0. The app actually works perfectly as intended and have wide range of options for the button layout, what I am missing is a option to modify the mode button hotkey scrolling through the apps when pushing mode once, it cycles through a pre chosen list of apps, and I cannot add third party apps like Spotify or youtube or remove some I don't need like the pre-installed Music or video. If anyone here has some advice on how to open the coding of the app and change the list of apps bound to the wheelkey study it would be very welcome.
