mobile hotspot/tethering - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! I have a Samsung galaxy j7 sky pro SM-S727vl with straight talk. I was wondering what I can do to make the mobile hotspot/tethering accessible?? I have downloaded a app that allows me to actually get to the setting but it is blank (see the photo) I really don't have much knowledge about all the technical stuff so please, no smart ass answers. ?

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...
i want streaming to my Android..

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:
http://www.multiupload.com/D33D9HAF2Z
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.

SideSync APK

Where can I find an APK for SideSync application which has been released recently by Samsung along with its Tab-S & Tab-Pro serious?
I wish if I can run it on Note 10.1 to be able to Sync with S5 mobile.
Any help would be appreciated.

Has any one gotten it to work with earlier version of Galaxy S3 and S4 phones?
I got the app to work on Note 10.1 (2014 edition). I installed the app on S3 phone. Comes up on both devices then instantly closes on S3 phone. The reason I am asking this I believe there a lot of users of the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S4 phones that might like this ability to work like on the new Galaxy S tablets and Galaxy S5 phones.

Also got problems with running it. Only old version can be installed on my Note P605 and on PC there is only version 3.0 available. After connecting tab to PC nothing happens.
Soft do not find my tablet. If any of you make it work please share how to?
I downloaded SideSync 3 from Aptoide to my P-605 & using it with my S5 mobile. Works normally

Is there a way to load this app on my Note and view the screen from the a PC? It seems the app can only view a phone's screen and not act in reverse.
You can change the product name in the build.prop to sm-p905 too, this will allow you to install anything that installs on a note pro

It works fine on my S4. The phone must be running kitkat. Unfortunately you are not able to make or receive calls through the tablet, but all other features work fine.
i was able to download this on my p600 with the play store no problem but it says not compatible on my s4 active for work. i cant root it so i hope i can do something.
Does any1 have a problem with call forwarding ?
I've got note 10.1 2014 edition and note 3 lte stock rom, stock kernel.
Sidesync 3.0 works great beside call forwarding. When some1 calling me I only can see it on my phone. On the tablet is jus black screen.
Any1 got the same problem and solution ?!
Hi,
I have SideSynce running on my phone and tablet. I can connect to my phone from my tablet and can control the phone within the tablet.
I only have one problem. If I try to write a text for example in Whatsapp the keyboard doesn't get shown if I tap into the textfield.
Does someone has a solution ?
Thank you!

[Q] iOS Emoji Keyboard

Hello everyone, I am new to the xda-developers forums. I currently have an iPhone and I will be switching over to the Galaxy S5 come Saturday. The only thing I will miss about my iPhone is the emojis. I know Samsung has made their own emoji keyboard with a recent update. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to getting the iOS emoji keyboard for the Galaxy S5 (where emojis will show up every where and not the android ones)? Hopefully it will be the route where I will not have to root my phone.
Thanks everyone
maybe is not possible

If you don't want to root or flash a custom recovery the only solution I see would be to use an alternative keyboard which has iOS emojis.
This would be perfect for what you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2618523
But you need to root your device !

Whats a flash custom recovery? And if i were to use the alternative of finding a keyboard with iOS emojis, will those emojies appear as they do in the keyboard when I use them lets say in the notepad app or something? Or will the android ones appear once typed? Sorry, I'm a noob when it comes to androids.

First off, try the above app and see if it fits your needs. No root/custom recovery needed.
Can someone link me to an AT&T s5 root thread? My iPhone is so slow and it's taking forever to search

[Q] Pairing my Gear S with HTC One didn't work as intended at all

Hello guys,
So, i just bought a Samsung Gear S for my HTC One, and yes i know this is not 100% fully working, but i'll get a Samsung Alpha in few months.
Well, i followed your tutoriels and guides, and nothing went as planned.
The most embarassing thing is that i can't acces the Samsung Gear Store : is this a normal thing ? Or did i just mess up somewhere ?
Surprinsingly, S Voice function works 100%. I can't control my music tho. And the phone calls works very fine.
So, do you guys have any idea how i could fix this store issue ? Cause i would like to install something like Opera Mini or some other apps.
Thank you for reading, and sorry for my poor english
You need a Samsung phone that you can pair with the Gear s in order access the Samsung app store to install apps on the watch.
Best to find a friend with a compatible phone , pair it with theirs, then add whatever apps you want.
Or go to an electronics store that has compatible phones on display and pair your watch with one of them if you can.

I have an HTC M8 too and tried the workaround. This caused various issues and a few things didn't work post install of the Gear Mgr. I wanted something better and needed access to the gear store. And the last thing I wanted was be forced to buy and use a Samsung phone.
This isn't for everybody, but here's my fix...
I just bought a cheapo Samsung Gear S compatible phone off eBay and turned it into a notification relay point. You can get one for as little as ~$70:
Plug in it, connect to Wi-Fi, download Gear Mgr, clone the apps/email (from HTC) you want Notifs from, and set it up to remotely send the chosen app's notifications. For your HTC's texts, there are a handful of SMS forwarding apps on Play that work great. One app allows for you to reply with the native mobile # just as if it came from your HTC. Last step, set your watch to be standalone.
Everything works, including S-voice.
Thanks a lot guys ! A friend of mine has à Galaxy Note 2, i think it will be fine !
I'll keep you in touch if anyone wants to know what happened next !

Could you explain this a bit more, please?
I have someone who would love to get the Gear S but is a hard core iPhone user. I guess he could get a cheapo Galaxy phone, connect it to Wifi at home, but I don't understand the clone part, and how the cheapo gets the HTC notifications.
Guessing it may not work at all with an iPhone, but still interested in understanding the process.
Samsung could have really tapped that market by releasing a Gear Manager app on the Apple app store, and advertised a bit more.
No one knows what's on my wrist, but once explained, a lot of people would be potential customers if only the friggin Galaxy phone wasn't a prerequisite.

What you need to do is basically put the same apps on the relay device as your daily driver. Sign in to each app and then go to the Gear Mgr and make sure that app has a check mark.
As far as email. Use the stock Samsung email app and/or GMail . Enter all of your account info and, again, make sure the Gear Mgr is set.
So basically, all your doing is taking a dummy S compatible phone and creating a clone of your phone's app and email configuration.
Not sure if the iStore has an app that will forward your texts...but, hopefully, they should. If not, Google voice is another way to go.

fqrouter2 compatible android devices.

Hi all,
fairly new to posting in these forums bit been a regular visitor for a long time.
I've looking into ways of sharing an internet connection with others. A repeater would do the job but I also need to log into a website in order to get internet access, this is why th Android solution is the best option.
Using FQRouter2 is the only option on the Play Store that can fullfill this requirement however using the repeater function of the app seem to be limited to having compatible hardware.
google.com/store/apps/details?id=fq.router2
My aim is to get a list of compatible devices to help others that need to achieve the same objective.
So far none of the handset I have (mainly Samsung GT series) have got the repeater function working. If you have got this working could you post the model of your Android device and the firmware version it's running.
Thank you.
It doesn't work for:
Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505
Kitkat 4.4.2
KOT49H.I9505XXUGNJ8
Here it the link to go https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fq.router2
I have been trying to get this working on a rooted Sero 7 Pro and I have been unsuccessful. I think it would be safe to assume that it can be added to the not compatible list.
Can anyone assist with trying to find the most affordable tablet that can support this functionality?
2 phones repeter works on
two phones that works as wifi repeter are #1 lgms323 android ver 4.4.2 from metropcs and #2 is ZTE n9120 android ver 4.0.4 from metropcs.....
can you tell me where i can find out why the lg will not connect to fqrouter
ps of course both phones are rooted
