Is there any way that we can buffer audio from an android phone's wifi hotspot to other one-two android phone which is connected to it....
Simplyfied Point-
1). A Android Phone's Hotspot Is On.
2). One or Two Phones Are Connected.
3). The Phones Connected Can Buffer Audio From Hotspot Phone.
It should be act like a radio eg. the connected phone open a specific address in browser and buffer live audio by hotspot phone.
Please help me

Buffer?
Im quite confused. Do you already have an audio link but it stutters?
If not, then I think you mean you want to send audio from one device to another on the browser.
I'm not sure how you would go about opening ports to the locally hosted hotspot network(probably with ifconfig)
Then you would need a local binary that gathers the audio and makes it available as a local port on that device(etho wlan0 etc) with some sort of streaming protocol.
Then you need to connect to the stream with ipaddressort from your other device. Given that the other device's browser supports the protocol.

Ok, so now that I have WiFi direct on my Tab, what can I actually do with it?
Can I connect to my Laptop and browse files
I have enabled it on the Prime, but I don't know what to do next?
Cheers

" According to the Wi-Fi Alliance, Wi-Fi Direct "is a certification mark for devices supporting a game-changing new technology enabling Wi-Fi devices to connect directly, making it simple and convenient to do things like print, share, synch and display. Products bearing the Wi-Fi Direct certification mark can connect to one another without joining a traditional home, office or hotspot network."
Essentially, WiFi Direct adds a virtual access point to a device bearing that certification, complete with a version of Wi-Fi Protected Setup for easy connections. When a WiFi enabled device comes under the umbrella of a WiFi Direct "host" the "client" can connect to the "host" through the existing ad-hoc protocol, gather setup information using a Protected Setup-style transfer, then allow the two devices to connect. So easy is the WiFi direct setup, some have suggested it could replace Bluetooth in some situations"
" What can a WiFi Direct "host" do?
A digital picture frame could allow digital cameras to connect and upload images.
A camera or smartphone could wirelessly connect to a photo kiosk to print high-quality analog prints of your digital pictures, without using an sdcard or cable.
A smartphone with data tethering could function more as a bridge or router (with more complex functions than simple tethering).
Smartphones and tablets could transfer files to one another (even large ones) quicker than over Bluetooth.
WiFi Direct devices can even connect one-to-one or one-to-many, and only one of those devices needs to be enabled for WiFi Direct -- all the others just need basic WiFi capabilities.
Combine all that with DNLA (and no longer needing a router for DNLA streaming) and you can see how convenient and downright cool streaming a HD video directly from your smartphone to a DLNA-enabled TV could be -- all without wires"

I really hope this does be enabled. A game changer for sure!

I am guessing that there is a youtube video on the post too (blocked on work connection)?
So is there nothing I can really do at the moment? I turn it on, but it doesn't broadcast a Wireless network or anything?
Hey guys.
So here is the problem. I am currently without an internet connection and would like to stream media from a off site Plex Media Server.
Now I could just stream it to my phone (the 4g down is outstanding here, 20mb+), but I would like to watch it on the TV.
I can send a video stream directly to the TV from my phone (using Bubble uPnP), but I need to be on the same WiFi network. Obviously the catch to this is I lose the 4g connection if I do this.
Is there any way I can connect to a WiFi network and keep the 4g connection? This seems like something that shouldn't be that hard, but I'm no expert.
I know I can just use a HDMI adapter to do this, but that renders my phone useless as it has a cable fixed to the bottom.
Thanks in advance!
Dear experts,
I have an issue with my Android multimedia device Orbsmart S82 which is powered by an AMLogic S802 chip. All my devices (phone, tablet, pc, NAS, orbsmart s82) are connected to the internet via Wifi.
To view HD-content on my TV, my plan was to connect my Orbsmart via ethernet cable to my NAS to receive stutter free video output. This works seamlessly. BUT: I cannot turn on Wifi and Ethernet on the Orbsmart at the same time. So each time I want to view content from my NAS, I have to go to the system settings and enable Ethernet. As Wifi gets disabled automatically by that action, I have to activate Wifi in the system settings in order to be able to view online content. But then, the ethernet interface is turned off again.
No matter what I try, only Wifi or Ethernet can be active.
Does anyone have a similar setup? What is your solution?
Thanks in advance!
In the meantime I found a possible explanation for the Orbsmart's behavior. Obviously, Android only allows one data connection at the same time per default. There seems to be a workaround if you can code. Unfortunately, I am not much of a coder...

Any suggestions to fix this without coding are much appreciated.
I found a solution. It only works for me if I connect an Android compatible USB / Ethernet Adapter. If I configure both Wifi and Ethernet manually with different subnets, I can make both work simultaneously. I use this adapter: Assmann DN-10050-1 Digitus USB network adapter.
Cheers.
I'm curious about being able to force my phone to use it's LTE data connection rather than a wifi network that it's connected to.
Here's why:
In my car, I have a head unit with a chromecast input through the hdmi port in the back. I put the chromecast there specifically to cast my phone's screen onto the head unit. Chromecast's screencasting works PERFECTLY for this purpose and I'm super happy with the performance
The problem comes in when I get to the fact that the chromecast can't cast my screen without an active internet connection. The dongle needs to download the casting app each time it starts, apparently.
My plan is to purchase a freedompop hotspot and go for the free 500mb a month plan, as the casting software for the chromecast is very small. The LTE connection on my phone is not an option because i'm not able to root, as well as whatever complications would arise from being the device broadcasting a network that it has to connect to.
What I'm trying to avoid is allowing my phone to consume data over the wifi network that it will have to connect to on order to cast its screen to the chromecast and my head unit.
I'm open to other creative solutions if you have any ideas. Miracast was an option, but after attempting to use a roku stick for that purpose, i've found that miracast and the Alpha aren't really good friends yet. If anybody knows of a miracast dongle that works well with the alpha, please share!
The sound card on my laptop is ageing and was not very good to begin with but the one in my phone is great. Is there a USB (not wireless) solution for my PC to detect my phone as a sound card and have the DAC in my phone process the digital audio signal and for me to listen through my phone's headphone jack?
Basically is there a solution that allows me to use my phone as an external usb headphone DAC/amp?
I've done some googling but not found any viable solution yet.
The first one I found that works is WiFiAudio, which you can get to work over USB by enabling USB Networking.
You have to run software on the PC (I tested from Windows 10). Don't know if there's Mac software but I'll be wanting it as well.

it's called USB Tethering in android, which is located in Portable Hotspot section.
We'd like to elaborate here a little as it took us some time to figure out how exactly to use our android as a sound card for a PC.
There's another app out there - SoundWire, which we used and known for some time, we haven't tried WiFiAudio, but found it. Think it's pretty similar.
So what those apps do is they let you connect to your android via LAN (WiFi in most cases unless u got ethernet cable in your phone) and they let you transmit sound to your phone. It's pretty simple and straightforward. The drawback is audio delay, which increases with buffer size. But good video player like MPC let's us change audio delay so we can make it play faster than video to compensate for that, takes a little time to figure out the delay tho.
SO we wanted to try it over usb cable, maybe it'd reduce/eliminate the delay heh. (it doesn't) That's how we found this post and we got kinda stumbled on "enabling USB Networking". Tried to look it up, read wiki and all. Turns out it's called USB Tethering in android, which is located in Portable Hotspot section. After enabling that - it adds a network on the PC, provided it's connected via usb cable ofc. Turned off all networking on android (WiFi, mobile) And it works. Though had to type in IP manually.
So now it can be used as a usb sound card without WiFi or anything. Still has a delay tho.
upd: Using a usb cable allows to reduce buffer size to minimum without getting any stutter leading essentially to no noticeable delay. Which is great.
