[Think Tank] Running NZBGet on android via linux command line and webgui

NZBget is an open source usenet binary downloader, similar to sabnzbd or hellanzb, with one exception, it is written in C++. It also has a web interface.
The publication of a decent multi codec video player like vplayer alpha has given us the ability to play a lot of content, now nzbget would be a nice way to get this content like trailers and stuff directly onto our devices.
Nzbget can be cross compiled to run on an ARM architecture CPU.
My question is about the libs required for it to function:
1 Zlib
2 Libxml2
3 Openssl
4 Libsigc++
5 Libpar2
6 Curl
Are these available to run in the linux environment that is the foundation for our devices?
What would it take to get them running?
Would this even be remotely interesting to anyone other than myself?
Probably just you. There are ways to search for files, dropbox them, or other way to send them to the watched folder, download them on the computer, then view them remotely rather than through 3g.
I see downloading on the home connection far better than using 3g.
better sure, but not as convenient!
There have been times when I had nothing but my phone and no computer available. Something like this would have allowed me to get some media to watch.
Probably a very niche usage case though.
Hmmm... youtube comes to mind for trailers and such =/... anything else you could use a torrent remote and setup an FTP server with access to your download folder and secure it. If you really want NZB stuff... you could get it using an automated NZB retrieving program like hellanzb. Then do the same type of thing. You could then have media stored on your computer at home and DL what you want via FTP when you want it. Honestly, haven't used NZBs in a long time =/... torrents are so much... better. Just my opinion though.
im interrested in, if you have a working binary that run on android please give me.

[Q] Q : How to change unlock button to "Home" for Nokia 710?

Morning all,
I need some help to resolve 2 questions.
1. How can i change the configuration to unlock the phone, not only by using "Power" button, but also "Home" button?
2. How can i transfer .epub files into my Windows Phone?
All i can find in XDA involved Android, or Windows Mobile, but not Windows Phone.
So any help is highly appreciated.
Don't think you can change the button function without an unlocked device and some hacking wizardry but I found this about .epub docs
Flibusta provides downloadable texts in .fb2, .epub or .mobi formats. The Windows Phone 7 Marketplace is tiny compared to Google market, but I found one free ebook reader called Freda that is able to read .epub files. Buried down in the UI ofr Freda, there is a Website page that allows to paste an URL in the text box. The same page also embeds Internet Explorer. I figured that the text box shall be used to download .epub document to the device. However, pasting a url to an .epub file distributed by Flibusta did not work. I tried another ebook reader, called iSilo. It was a very usable and feature-rich program on my old Palm TT, but it could not open my .epub file either.
An inspection of the HTTP session between the browser and Flibusta allowed to pinpoint a problem. Flibusta issues two HTTP 302 redirects: one to insure that the .fb2 document is converted to .epub and the other to compresses the .epub document, if needed. The Internet Explorer used in Windows Phone 7 did not want to follow the redirects, but typing manually the url given in the last redirect in the Freda search box worked.
http://mikhailian.mova.org/everything-you-can-not-do-windows-phone-7
Thanks for the info about Flibusta and the redirects - I will check it out, and make sure it works with the next release of Freda. Actually, I am about to start beta-testing that release in the next days, so if you want to join the beta-testing team, just let me know ([email protected]).
Incidentally, the flibusta catalog is also available as an OPDS book source on Freda (just find the 'unhide source' menu, and unhide the source called 'flibusta'). That should give a better book browsing experience. That 'website source' interface is really just a workaround for the fact that Microsoft won't let me register a program (e.g. Freda) as the app to open .epub files - and I'd be the first to admit that it is a pretty ugly workaround.

Help needed to convert app to run on Android

I currently have a CD for squaredancers that I sell. The app is a simple app that uses HTML tables and Adobe SWF movies. Samples of this app can be viewed at http://www.squaredancecd.com
I have copied all files to the MicroSD card, and clicked on the introductory page "welcome.htm"
The browser does not come up as an "opening" option, only the choice of HTML editor or HTML viewer...choosing the viewer, I get an error web page basically saying that it can't find content....although the actual hyperlink printed is long.
The same thing happens when I click on an SWF file...get the same response.
Thinking that it needed to be installed on the mnt/SDCard, I moved all files over to the Prime itself.....Still the same page came up.
If I open the stock browser and go to the "sample" website shown above, the pages display perfectly.
How do I get the program to run from the tablet itself. I am trying to stick with the stock browser, because I don't want to make users install a special browser just to run the program.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Android browser that emulates Internet Explorer??

I need to use Internet Explorer on my mobile devices for my job. My company's as well as a few client's secure websites as require Internet Explorer to work correctly. I need to log into those websites to access data while I am working out in the field. Those websites absolutely require Internet Explorer.
Those websites do not even work on Firefox on PC or Safari on Mac. So far only a coworker's Windows phone with Internet Explorer seems to works. Everyone else with iPhone, iPad and Android phone have not been able to use their mobile devices, and we all have to use a laptop with Windows, which seems to defeat the purpose of having a mobile device.
I know Android does not have Internet Explorer, but is there some browser that can emulate Internet Explorer on Android?

Try Dolphin Browser... and try to change UA to Internet Ex (i think)... or Boat Browser
Inviato dal mio GT-S5570 con Tapatalk 2
maybe out of the thread ..
but try out emulating a pc .. ?
Like using your mobile as a controller of the pc
else try Opera if yo haven't , change the user agent into Desktop
hope it works well for yo ..
You can try Dolphin Browser since you can enter a custom user agent so the website will think you are using IE. If its only built to work with IE's rendering engine you may have issues, but often times these sites are mostly functional in other browsers unless they need ActiveX.
This user agent string will tell the site you are using IE8 on XP
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0)

This is my 3rd post about what I'm trying to get suggestions on with a browser I have been given access to that works only on Windows 10 in windows devices but also on any Android or iOS devices. The view mode can be changed from Android, to Safari, and between desktop/mobile. Mentioning this because noticed it does emulate ie on desktop mode. Could be the answer.
It is MX5, the latest version to Maxthon Browser, and it is worlds ahead of anything available for Android. I am trying to get suggestions as to setting up a thread for availability and such, and am sure you would have to create an account through a Maxthon Browser download from playstore. Has cloud storage as well as syncing favorites, open tabs, between devices. Also has the ability to store webpages offline now in their entirety, or just extract pics, vids that can be modded for use in other ways. Also has what is called UUMail built in you name your own webserver, enter email address into and create shadow (alias) email addresses to use online that are filtered for spam. Adblocking is builtin as well.
If this seems to be an answer, try Maxthon Browser off playstore, create a user account and password. Even if you change the view mode in it to desktop and that does not fix the IE compatability problem, maybe this version, MX5 will.

Here similar problem, wish/need/pray to acces with android browser to old website made for IE 5.0 and javascript... Under PC I sue IE Tab... Try install add-onson Firefox for android, but not works...
(
I need the same thing, I have a dodge service manual cd that uses internet explorer 7 and under to run properly, I have used internet explorer in dev mode to run it it using ie 7, also on chrome I used IE tab extension and they both work great for windows. The problem is on android nothing works. I have tried every browser. I have also tried Yandex browser which supports add on and have installed ie tab but it does not work. I also tried Firefox and install ie tab using chrome store foxified but again it does not work. I wish there was a way of running this cd on android. I think it needs activex, netscape, svg viewer and java script.

Display a webpage using 'webview' in Windows Phone App (Compatibility View)

I tried to create a new project using 'webview' in VS 2013 for windows phone app. The login page comes up and once I click on submit, this is what I see:
"This website is best viewed in Internet Explorer 7.
Kindly use Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or above.
If you are facing any issues while viewing the website, Please view the website in compatibility mode. "
Can we render this page somehow in this app by changing the compatibility settings?
Code:
Protected Overrides Sub OnNavigatedTo(e As NavigationEventArgs)
Dim HomeUri As New Uri("https://url")
WebViewControl.Navigate(HomeUri)
AddHandler HardwareButtons.BackPressed, AddressOf MainPage_BackPressed
End Sub
You most likely neither need nor want to put the webview in compatibility mode; IE7 is ancient. The problem is that the site - like many others written by incompetent web devs - uses overly-strict user-agent sniffing instead of just testing for feature compatibility. All you should need to do is send a custom user-agent header. I'm not the person to talk to about that - I don't use the WebView control, as a general rule - but it's possible. Several of the third-party browser apps on the store do it.
I tried this but it did not work:
Code:
Dim ua As New String("Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 7.0b; Windows NT 6.0)")
Dim targetUri As New Uri("https://blablabla")
Dim hrm As New HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, targetUri)
hrm.Headers.Add("User-Agent", ua)
WebViewControl.NavigateWithHttpRequestMessage(hrm)
