I have read somewhere that many new android phones don't have a FM receiver because stock Android doesn't have a radio app.
So my question is: will Ubuntu Touch have a native radio app?
Btw. I was wondering if a native DVB-T tv watching app could be a good idea? When phones running Ubuntu have a built-in DVB-T receiver, watching free-to-air television on your phone (without using wireless internet) could be a reason for people to buy a Ubuntu-phone.
Right now, there's no such app. Moreover, I guess that they will work on basic features first. Therefore, don't expect a FM radio app soon.

Hi!
As the title says, i wondered if Android allows you to stream audio from the device to the network? Specifically for Airfoil, is it possible to play music from spotify (etc.) from the phone, on my other airfoil units?
I contacted the developer, and he was unsure wether this was possible with the current APIs or not, i would sure be willing to pay for such a program at least
Such a program exist for iOS already: http://itunes.apple.com/app/reemote-for-airfoil/id396381723?mt=8
Thanks!
Will this thread be of any help:

That seems to be the opposite way of what i am interested in. Have found that my DoubleTwist media player supports streaming to my Mac Mini running XBMC, so i dont see why this wouldnt work for Spotify/wimp instead.
An app that "hijacks" the audio source, and sends it via WiFi to Airplay/Airfoil/DLNA supported devices would be what i am looking for i guess.

This is something i really want too, what Apple has done with their Airplay is something that would be awesome to have in our Android devices.
agreed, need to audio-hijack all system sound to send to airplay. want to be able to sent pandora, etc controlled from my phone to an airplay receiver.
There is some development going on towards this. I use Shairport on an old phone to act as an Airport express :

The Airports keys were 'Cracked ' so there will be something eventually.

I bought winamp for android.
It will be nice if this development can be as you mention.
Hope I dont have to buy doubleTwist since I like Winamp.
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 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!!!!!

Hi all,
Currently i am wondering what options i have to stream audio from my android phone to my PC?
being a previous iPhone-owner, i just got my HTC One mini (4.2.2).
I have a Airplay-Reciever-Software installed on my PC, so i was able to stream any audio from my iPhone to my PC - native.
Actually, i dont want to install any app on my phone, as i dont want to be limited to a specific app for my music or video.
Native steaming seems to be possible with MIracast and DLNA....
I was reading through many articles about DLNA and Miracast - none being really helpfull. I couldnt find any PC-Reciever-Software for Miracast, and DLNA seems to work entirely different.
Also, making my android stream to Airplay doesnt seem to work without root AND a specific app - not really an option either.
You guys have any idea?
Thanks
Lennart
for anyone with the same issue:
DLNA can work this way: Streaming audio from my phone to a DLNA player (WMP on win7).
Also, chromecast can be an option (for google-apps).
Cheers!
Hi all and sorry if this is in the wrong place. I bought this TV and almost cried at first because Philips, in their wisdom, had decided not to allow sideloading of apps. After a recent update this feature has now been allowed and have tried chrome etc but they are all virtually useless because of the rubbish remote that comes with the TV. My question is does anyone know a wireless mouse/keyboard combo that DEFINITELY works with this TV or is there an app on play store that I use to control my TV from my phone wirelessly. It would have to include a mouse and keyboard function. The reason I say wirelessly is because the only device I think I can connect through Bluetooth is a speaker. I have tried searching various forums but haven't come up with a definitive solution yet and have tried multiple maybes.

Hello, does anyone know a way to stream all audio from Android device to another one? Basically I want to stream audio from my phone to an Orange pi zero (Chinese raspberry pi clone) over wifi. It work well from Windows with SoundWire, but I need a similar app on Android. For information, both devices are rooted.
Thank you very much.
