Identification USB - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I set up a Samsung S6 edge for Android Auto. Do not have SIM on the phone.
If I connect to App Connect (VW) now, my actual phone will be disconnected and i can no longer make calls via the hands-free system.
The Business telephone interface with SIM is also disconnected.
Now I want to give the S6 the USB ID of the other phone.
Have tried a lot like changing the IMEI or the Android ID. Without success.
Does anyone know what information Discover Pro uses to identify the phone via USB?
Thanks

AFAIK an USB ID doesn't exist on any Android version.
What you might try to sync is Serial Number of devices in question.

I have to turn a Samsung S6 edge into an S9.
At least as far as USB information is concerned.
How can I do this?
Have already changed the Serial and IMEI with the Device Emulator app.
But he didn't take over the Serial.
How does Discover Pro identify a smartphone?

[Q] How to setup wi-fi direct?

Hi all,
Just wondering how to setup wi-fi direct? I've gone into the menu and enabled it, hit scan, but it doesn't find either of my 2 laptops.
Do the laptops have to be wi-fi direct certified as well or is there some sort of configuration I have to do to make them available to the phone?

i wish i knew mate, i'm pestering people to find out myself. nobody seems interested. i was linked this video, but the guy is hard to understand and it doesn't work in the way he demonstrates it on my laptop. maybe his is wifi direct certified - thats not really clear ether. have a look anyway, maybe you can figure something out.

wi-wfi direkt is disabled on newer devices by samsung.......... because they have problems with licenses
I use wifi direct to send files from my phone to my friend's phone (he also has the Galaxy S II). Works perfectly and is really fast.

So I guess both devices must be wi-fi direct certified, because my phone doesn't pickup my laptop at all (which is about 3 years old).
Intel Wifi dashboard
there is a programm called intel wifi dashboard , this program enables wifi direct on laptop and then your laptop will be discovered by GSII
WIFI direct is like a private network between your laptop and your GS2 or just 2 GS2 that enables you to transfer files up to 1 Gb in size in just 2 or 3 mins ( i tried it myself by sending a 730 mb wmv file ) without the need of setting up a wireless network
and obviously it's much more faster and effiecent than bluetooth
Has anyone managed to transfer files between Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3 and PC using Intel Dashboard?
I can get my Samsung SMART TV to detect my Android Phone

Okay, so I just rooted my phone and flashed a new ROM and it has Wifi-Direct option on it which basically, you just tick to enable and cannot configure. Since my Samsung SMART TV was wifi-Direct certified, I opened the Wifi-Direct Menu and it just detected my phone. It told me that I could either connect by pushing the Wifi-Direct Button on my Device (PBS Way) or by entering the TV-generated PIN on my Device( PIN Way). But I cannot see a "Enter the PIN" Notification pop up on my Android Device. Let me try a Third-Party App and lets see how it goes.

i am also facing same error
There's an app called Superbeam, that works on android, mac, windows and linux. I use it to transfer files between my Nexus 5, a Galaxy Tab2 and my PC. it works great.

[Q] How to disable rsap (remote sim access profile)?

Sometimes I want my Galaxy S2 to connect to my carkit (Nokia 616) using the normal HFP (not using rsap), so my phone doesn't loose its internet connection and I can use Google Maps etc.
However, since the Nokia 616 has no way of disabling rsap, I have to disable rsap on the phone. Does anybody know of a way to disable rsap on the Galaxy S2 so it connects using HFP with my carkit?
Any luck with finding a solution?
I have been trying to find a work around to this since June, can't believe there is no option to disable remote sim mode in either device... We must be the only people in the world struggling with this because there is nothing out there... emailed Samsung got no reply, called Nokia and spoke to the most unhelpful support person i have ever dealt with...
I did read in the Nokia 616 Manual however that in order for remote sim mode to work you need to have an external antenna connected... so i am going to try and disconnect the external antenna in the hope that the 616 recognises that its not connected and disables remote sim mode... its a long shot but im at breaking point...
I'm struggling to believe there is no command line method to disable or remove rsap on a rooted galaxy s, if I could get a lead at least i would look into it myself.
Found a way

Disable RSAP/remote sim mode?

(posted this in the wrong forum earlier)
Is there a way to disable the remote sim protocol on the S3? My carkit (RNS510 premium from Volkswagen) connects via this protocol but it's not the preferred method. There is a workarround, i can manually disconnect and then connect to the carkit via the phone (i think it connects via a2dp or something), but it's bit of a hassle. If I could just disable rsap my carkit will automaticlly connect via the other protocol (like it connects with an iphone)
If your phone is rooted you can rename /system/lib/bluez-plugin/sap.so. This should remove the SAP profile from your phone. Perhaps you have to repeat the pairing.

I am so happy that rSAP is available now - before I had to root and install 3rd party software. But usually you can decide while pairing which mode you like - at least my Audi asks which connection mode I would like. Maybe you have to unpair first on both devices and the pair again.
Out of interest: Why is rSAP not your preferred method? The phone itself uses less energy, reception is better due to the build in antenna and also the phonebook features are available in the car.
The only reason for me would be the lack of data connection on the phone which is only true if your car does not provide the Wifi Hotsport function - with this my S3 is connecting to the Internet and also the car has access for online traffic info, Google Earth, etc...

Grrr, why it does not want to work with MMI on A7? and he wants have disconnected, doh
I made the update, but nothing. It fails after the request of 6 digit PIN (indeed, I had 16 digits on my old BB Storm). Also with that 3rd party app, it doesn't work... what car do you have and what did you exactly to make it works?
Thanks.
Oooh...which firmware version did rsap support come in?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
XXB LG8 for sure.
Will you try?

Hi there!
My name is Andre and I installed a Volkswagen Bluetooth kit with the remote SIM feature.
As I paired my Galaxy SIII with the kit, my phone asked me a couple of things that I auto answered yes...
The first one was about giving permission to access my SIM.
After that my phone always entered in remote SIM mode with the kit.
Today I remade the pairing and when my phone asked to enable access to the kit for my SIM... I answered NO (and checked the box "do not ask me this again").
Now me, my phone and my car seem to be understanding each other.
Hope that this was of any help,
Andre

[Q] BT FAX and Serial profile in android, which one?

I can't seem to find any information regarding this subject so I thought I would ask here, hopefully one of you developers out there will know what I am talking about.
Previous blackberry, iphone, and windows mobile devices all had an option to be used as a bluetooth serial extension. It showed up as a bluetooth serial modem / fax modem connection.
So you could use any terminal software with it, such as windows fax, etc...
I know that the cellular modem profile has had built in modem capabilities right from the start but I have been unable to find any information as to which android devices have the fax / serial port profiles working and ready to use without major modification of the underlying operating system.
I am not trying to get internet access such as wifi hotspot, etc... I am actually wanting to use the built in ulaw serial connection services so I can use the cellular modem as an actual serial modem, to connect to fax devices, old bbs terminals, old serial modems running switch equipment, etc...
On a black berry and other devices you just enable blue tooth and attach a serial port to it and it only uses regular voice minutes (as it should) for the connection.
So does anyone know how to activate the serial / modem functions of the phone under android and which version / hardware is it currently working on?
Thank you for any assistance.

View and Control Nokia 8 from PC

Hi all,
Just bought my Nokia 8 the other day. Got it for AUD$499! from Harvey Norman - who was out of stock - but price matched by JB Hi-fi.
I was using a Samsung Note 4, which was doggone slow. Might be resetting that one and putting it up for sale - any potential takers?
My Note 4 used SideSync, which connected to by PC via USB cable. Sidesynced allowed me to see and control my Note4 on my PC. I can do everything on the phone from my PC - I liked sending texts and SMS for example.
There doesn't appear to be an equivalent for the Nokia 8. I have seen alot of mirroring apps that require screen casting, but none which allows connection via USB.
The question - what is the equivalent out there to SideSync (which is only compatible with Samsung phones. I've tried it and it does not work). I've enabled USB debugging. The Nokia 8 says SideSync keeps closing. I can see the phone from my PC as it's connected by USB - so I can see the files on the phone from my PC - but cannot see the phone's screen or do anything to the phone.
Thanks all.
Hi,
You could try AirDroid if you know, which it gives you the option to control the phone and send texts and many other things. The only thing which i don't know if it suits you, is that it syncs through the wifi network... You connect the phone to your wifi network, and from your pc you go to a link that the app gives you and scan the QR code and thats it...
Try it maybe it will do the job for you.

Thank you for responding. I really want a USB connection to the PC as going over the air through my companies WiFi I am sure will slow things down. I have looked at Apowermirror and they want you to pay to use it and it's UI is a bit clunky. There's also Wondershare Go, but there doesn't seem to be an app on the playstore for screen mirroring, though I did do this with my Note 4.
MyPhoneExplorer
Hello, give a try to My Phone Explorer. It's free and very straight forward I think. I used it without issues.
If you Google it you'll find a link from fjsoft, that's the right one.
Good luck.
Hello, i use Vyzor to cast the screen of my N8 on my PC by using the usb connection.
The application can be used as free but if you need some quality you will need the paid version.
