If you plugged in the webcam before starting up virtualbox and are still experiencing issues
I found a solution that actually works.
Which i found out the hard way
because you'll need to backup your apps.
The solution is to plug in the webcam before turning the computer on, Re-install remix os and convert the os back into a virtual box image all while keeping your webcam plugged in.
The os has to believe the webcam is built in.
Camera functions won't work if you intermittently plug in the webcam after startup, it has to be plugged in before the os is started.

Android File Transfer and Mac

I finally got my "2007" macbook pro to recognize my samsung S3 as a disk drive. Anyways, now i'm facing a slight issue, when AFT loads it kills my other USB ports. for example if i have my mouse plugged in, my mouse will stop working. I'll have to unplug and plug it back in, sometimes i have to do that 2 -3 times. The other day my keyboard and touchpad stopped working, which forced a reboot. Anyone else faced issues like this? and is there a fix?
running OSX 10.6.8

[Q] Unable to transfer files to phone from PC via bluetooth.

I bought a bluetooth dongle on Amazon (ORICO BTA 403, CSR8510 A10 chipset) and installed it on my Windows 7 x64 computer.
The dongle installs fine and works perfectly with all my older phones but not with my Xperia S running Android 4.1.2.
Basically, if I install the automatic windows driver, and pair with the phone, windows complains about no drivers for the device, and I can't do anything with it.
If I install the supplied software (CSR Harmony wireless software stack) I can pair and the Xperia S is installed properly, the various audio services work (I can stream music to PC using BT), but I still can't send or receive files, either from PC to Phone or from Phone to PC.
The connection times out after a second and gives me a connectivity error. It's like the phone refuses to connect to the PC, both when transferring and receiving.
I don't know if the phone is the problem, it seems to not work only when doing file transfers with PC, if I try to transfer files to other phones or to my mac (which has built in BT) it works fine.
Is there any way to fix this issue? Any way to troubleshoot this issue to tell if the problem comes from the phone or the dongle?
Searching with google I can't find any solution, I just get lost into a sea of bluetooth problems which have nothing to do with what I'm experiencing.
By the way, using Airdroid instead of BT is not a fix.

your problem is bare and I think you can try these two solutions out:
1- Restart your phone and check whether your problem has solved or not. 2- Restart your windows and also turn off your Antivirus and firewall and try again.

1.Its not a phone its Headphones. 2.Restart made no difference plus Antivirus/firewall not the cause, seems to be a driver problem when installing from windows update! Ta all the same.
The problem is ****ty drivers from the manufacturer. I installed Bluesoleil and it worked perfectly. Another solution is to use the Windows stack by manually installing drivers from the MS Windows Mobile Suite (or whatever it's called, I don't remember) but that only supports file transfer.

All cameras works on linux and on windows and also are listed on uvc compliant list.

Keyboard and mouse stop working after connecting phone

I have a PC running Windows 8.1 and every time I connect an android device in MTP mode the keyboard and mouse on the computer stop working.
Their lights turn off as if they aren't even connected however the work fine in the BIOS. The only way to fix this is to do a system restore.
It seems that the USB drivers get bugged, how can I prevent this?

Asus Transformer Book T100 (2 Issues)

Hello.
I managed to install RemixOS in my Asus Transformer Book T100TAM, and so far I'm loving it.
But I can't get the touchscreen to work, any hints?
Also, I'd like to turn off the option to tap-to-click, because I keep clicking accidentaly. Is it possible?
Thanks in advance.
It seems that the touchscreen driver doesn't work or is not there. Android-x86 build works fine with touch as far as I remember.
I have one question for you:
Do internal speakers disable automatically when you connect the headphones into the audio input?
The internal speaker doesn't disable when I plug headphones.
If you need anything tested for this particular model, please ask me.
An update on my issue: I reinstalled Remix OS, and at first boot the touchscreen works OK. After a reboot, it never works again.
Don't know if it's relevant, but I used this tool to install Remix OS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/winapp-android-x86-installer-uefi-t3222483
Had to use the tool because this PC doesn't have Legacy Boot, and it has 32 bit only UEFI.
Another thing: the camera LED notification light (a dot that only lights up when the camera is in use) is always on.
