My Wi-Fi direct is there, but it's not really active. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My current phone is Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos GT-I9082L, I'm using Glade Rom right now. My Wi-Fi is there, but it's not really active. It doesn't even shows when I'm about to choose the option on Share Via. Is there anyway I can activate it or use a third-party app without the QR Scan Code? Since most of people nowadays don't use QR Code Scanner anymore. Thank you! :fingers-crossed:

The version for the tab does not even let me download it, I have tried the remote but it looks wrong and I want the video streaming function as this is one of the main reasons for buying it.
The Smart View-app isn't ready for the tabs yet.
Samsung issued a statement, when they first launched SmartView for the SGSII, that 8.9 and 10.1 tablets will be able to download the app in the late summer.. So just be patience (like me! )
I tried a downloadable .apk version on my 10.1 in combination with the d8000...
The remote function works, but when trying to switch to watch tv it crashes.
Then i found a ported version, which should work on more android devices.
That compatibility i can't check, but still the same crash on the 10.1...
i thought Samsung said they would put it on the 10.1 and 9.8 by default...
One of the main reasons, for bying it...

Have you even bothered to read my post right before yours?
Samsung never said it would be on the tab from the get-go.. They promised to release it "after the summer".. And seeing how vague that statement is (doesn't even tell if they mean summer in Miami, Stockholm, Capetown or Sidney), it's pretty safe to say that they're still in keeping with their promise..
any news about samsung second TV?
is there a new Version out there...

Nope, no news yet.
I wrote with a Samsung-dude last week, and all he could say is that they're still planning for at september/early october-release
See here for the download link and information about the app.

Hi,
I want to try the Smart View-Tab version on my Galaxy Note because the non-Tab version has low resolution.
Can any Tab owner share the new version of the Smart View-Tab app here ?
the apk please...
Also we have a discussion about this on the Note section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420918&page=2
I'd appreciate if anyone could share this app from their Tab 10...
Smart view Tab:

thank you.
but I get a package corrupt error.
can you check if it's not corrupted while uploading ?
package corrupt
Downloaded and installed here without any problems...
I've got a Samsung 5700 .. doesn't work though (even though I can activate network remote in my TV menu...) Anyone any ideas? What does my TV mean by Network Remote then?!
any news ?
can anyone else upload the Tab app from their Tab 10 ?
Did you try in the market? Both Samsung remote apps (tablet/non tablet version) show there?
"Samsung" as the query?
They don't list the "Tab" version to the Galaxy Note.
Don't know if this is what you are looking for, I use it to control my 7000 series Samsung LED on my Tab 10.1. For some reason I don't get the dual view as an option but I have read others are having the same issue. Works fine for me, full screen, as the other one is really small when it loads.

Samsung Galaxy S 2 Unlocked

I just ordered an unlocked Galaxy SII from Amazon. I want to use this as just a Wi-Fi Android device, would i be able to do this with access to all android features (marketplace apps). Or do i need a SIM card just to use the device? Thanks!
If your using it as a wifi only then no you dont need to unlock it and the market dosnt require a sim, why would you want to do this though
I know its weird, but i have the money and i want something to replace my slow Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 and i felll in love with the S II at the store. I want to use it as a Wi-Fi only device for now because i don't use my phone very much at all and i don't want to pay for data right now.
Some apps like Whatsapp, Viber and other communication apps require simcard as ID. But you wont need any just for browsing internet, email, facebook etc. Android market doesnt require sim card too
Thanks a lot man! I was just making sure it would work like my Wi-Fi only Galaxy Player did. Thanks so much! I get it tomorrow, any ROM suggestions or should i wait till the official 4.0 update in march?
I would not recomend to use ICS roms yet if you want stable.
If you want just try... here is overview
www dot galaxys 2 roms dot com
I found good ones myself: "AndyX ROM", "Pure ICS".

[Q] Droidwall, whitelist for samsung dive

Hey guys, which programs must be allowed acces to the net if i wannt samsung dive to work properly ?
using droidwall...
does anybody know ?
**EDIT**
In order to get samsung dive to work properly u need to let the following apps acces the internet:
- Android System,...
- Google Services Framework,...
- Remote Controls
- Samsung account
- SyncmIDS
- GPS
- Kernel (only for call logs)
Cheers.
I'm not sure what Samsung Dive is, but generally if you suspect something is being blocked, you can enable the log in droidwall to see which app it is.

Cool, I wonder why is not working on Note 4 , I have removed availability on google play for Note 4, We will try to fix this soon.
Actually this funtion is built in already. You can find it under Settings->Security->Scroll down all the way->Smart Lock
In native smart lock there is no support for trusted WiFi devices. In smart Unlock yes.
Tested on Android 4.4.2, touchwiz, haven't worked on my G900F (International S5 version) using wifi smart unlock. Not sure about bluetooth.
Hello,
We have created a forum thread for this app.

Hello, Thanks for your reply.
When you say "didn´t work", what do you mean exactly? Once you are connected to your wifi and you add the wifi to Trusted devices, you should see in the notification that the devices is "unlocked".
Do you see this notification? Yesterday we solved the issues with sony xperia z2 and z3 and now we would like to focus on samsung series, Thanks for your help.

Correct. And yes I saw "device unlocked" but then, when I pressed the power key to lock my device, then pressed it again to wake the device, I still had to input my pattern password.

Ok, so I can guess now what part of the code is being ignored by S5.
Do you have 4.4.2 stock rom?
And, maybe is a noob question for S5 users, but I´m not samsung owner and I dont know specific samsung software, so any help will be appreciate.
Is there any unlocking tool specific for S5 / note4 devices? For example on Z2 series there is a "Smart Connect" app that has included something similar to smart unlock but native on sony devices, also in Z2 there is a native option for unlocking near some BT devices, that was creating conflicts between our app in sony.
Hope we can solve the issues on S5 and Note 4 because are the only devices with problems using Smart Unlock.

I'm on 5.0 like I said, not 4.4.2. And no, Samsung does not have any feature like that.

Ok sorry, you are right, as you said before you are on android 5.0
I guess we will need a S5 to find a working solution. As I can read in this thread there is 1 user on 4.4.2 and you with android 5.0 and is not working for both of you.
I will try to get an S5 tomorrow, I will keep you informed with a test apk soon. Thanks for your testing time.

No prob.... just PM me or post here (mention me) and I'd be glad to test the new version.
Not working for me neither in my SM-G900F using 5.0, the notification appears, but when I lock the screen, I still have to input my password (I'm using fingerprint scanner for unlocking the screen).

Hello!, Can you please try to disable fingerprint scanner and use normal lock pattern? Thanks very much. Its very important for me to know if the mail problem is the fingerprint scanner or something bigger related with samsung roms.
Thanks in advanced

Call answer vibration does not work

Hello,
Sorry if this is already answered but i use that feature a lot and I need it.
In call settings you have that option to enable but after you enable it there is no difference.
Please help resolving that problem.
Cheers.
I am using an app called vibrate call pro, it doesn't need root access however adding a command through adb, the developer wrote the detailed steps in the play store description and it works flawlessly
Are you trying to tell me samsung S6 is a lot useless then S4 for example?
If you need to install third party software for function that should be available and working why buy that phone at all.
