CheapCast? - Glass Q&A

I'm going to be picking my Glass up today (yay!) and I was wondering if anyone has tried installing CheapCast by apk onto their Glass.
I've seen there are some launchers that work with standard Android apps, but it would be pretty cool to have CheapCast since it would let you cast anything to your glass. It could be really handy.

Gave it a shot, works surprisingly well. Was able to cast Youtube, Play Store Movies, & Netflix....didn't test any further but it was a solid connection and not at all buggy as I expected...

That's awesome! Thanks for giving it a shot. I'm at work now (just picked up my Glass) so I don't really have time to fiddle with it yet.
I'll be setting this up when I get home.

You can just sideload the netflix apk to glass, works just as fine. Netflix and emulators are the main applications I use on my Glass. Gotta love playing pokemon with a bluetooth keyboard on glass

Yeah, it is. However, since XE16 it seems that Glass doesnt accept any input other than its own. I tried a usb mouse and keyboard using a usb to micro-usb adapter, and a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. This makes it impossible to log in to netflix, and other native android applications is a lot more difficult to use now. Hopefully Google re-adds the possibility to use these devices again.

This is amazing... I've been emailing Facebook, Pandora, and Huffington Post weekly to release official apps. Whenever I got a response, it was "sorry, but we're working on it... we have multiple projects going", etc. Now two of the three release in one day!
Well that will teach me to go a day without looking at the market!
Jizz in my pants.

Check them out online first to get a better understanding of how the music genome project works. For example how it breaks down music by its various elements and uses your choices to find other music with similar elements. Also look into how the rating system works into that and influences what music you're served...
I've been using Pandora for years... I love the concept and their execution...today is a happy day for me.

Live TV for the Nexus One???

Hello. Does anyone know any good app to watch live tv on the nexus. I missed all the Fifa games today because i was stuck at work. My buddy did have it on his sprint phone with sprint tv tho.....any suggestions???
I didn't try it today, but I'd think with flash, things like atdhe.net would work

i streamed UFC PPV fights on my N1 thru this site with 3G
Have u tried downloading the Ustream Viewer? Search the Market for it.
Live games on hd (wihtout having flash on 3g network)
Ok so i been looking around a way to watch the world cup on my tmobile cliq for a while. and i came across with a way to watch it on my phone (WHICH DOESNT REQUIRED TO HAVE FLASH)
SO THIS SHOULD WORK WITH ANY ANDROID PHONE THAT DOESNT HAVE FLASH.
THE ONLY ONE PROBLEM IS THAT THE WEBSITE THAT STREAMING THE GAME ONLINE IS ONLY IN SPANISH****Srry but theres no other place that i have try that would work on the phone without flash.
for the best performance please connect your phone on the best data connection...which is (3G) so the stream will go smoothly without any stops.
ok now just follow the steps below AND ENJOY
Step #1
Download Skyfire on the android market. (Or with the Apk Link below)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
http://www.4shared.com/file/l_uViP5n/comskyfirebrowserv201.htm
Step #2
After Downloading Skyfire Open the app and just follow the steps it requires when you first open Skyfire, Ok after evrything is loaded type in your address bar on top with the following link futbol.univision.com/fifacopamundial/partidos-en-vivo
(MAKE SURE YOU TYPE IT RIGHT OR IT WONT WORK)
Step #3
after the page is loaded you should see a pop out in your left corner of a video just as the picture below
CLICK ON THE VIDEO AND LET IT LOAD....IS SHOULD TAKE A COUPLE OF SECONDS TO LOAD BASED ON YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION...SO IF UR NOT CONNECT ON 3G IS GOING TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO LOAD.
*******AFTER THAT THE VIDEO SHOULD LOAD PERFECTLY AND ENJOY ....
***EVEN THOUGH IS IN SPANISH, U GET TO WATCH IT LIVE ****
didn't seem to work for me. maybe because im in canada
moved to Q&A
I tried using Skyfire and could get audio but no video, so it kinda works. I have found that the Ustream viewer available in the market to be better. You have to search around for a feed of the games, but you can usually find them but the quality isn't the greatest.

this is a very nice project so i am interested to learn about it, so before visiting your site i visit to this site which is giving me the freshness by giving the live watching sourding activities. so help me in your positive project.
thanks.

Do a search in Android Market for Captivate and you will find 3 apps out there. One is quickoffice, One is a car dock and the third is a desk dock that does what you are looking for.
All 3 are free
Desk Dock. Works perfect and looks good. Thank you so much for that information. I appreciate that.
NP happy to help out.

Can someone take a picture of the last 2? I tried looking on appbrain and couldn't see anything. Looked on my phone, but there are no pictures of the apps.
Also, with quickoffice, can you create documents from the Captivate? Only thing I see is opening files.
You can not find the apps if you use appbrain have to use the market on the phone.
I am at work and do not have my cable with me but I will see that I can do when I get home for SS
As far as I can tell you can not make docs with the free ver of quickoffice but it looks like you can with the full

Ok just a guess but if you are on T-Mobile if you search for Vibrant you will also fine at least 2 apps for the Vibrant. The desk dock and car dock.
From what I understand they will either be on all 4 SGS phones or you can get them from the market but searching for the phones name.

I think they look pretty good.
How did you get the calendar to show up in the dock like that?
Never mind I found it.
It looks nice. One thing I would like see on next version is that is customizeable. Add/remove shortcuts, etc.

Since the phone is locked to ATT, using a tmobile's sim won't allow me to access the tmobile's signal unless i unlock the phone.

[GAME]Sea Fight(Pomorski boj) - v1.1

I made a game called Sea Fight.
It's basicly a good old battleship game.
I would be very glad, if you tested it out.
Short description:
"Sea Fight" is a game in which two players compete against one another. The goal is to "sink" all enemy ships. The game supports one player against the computer. Two players can play at the same phone, or play at their phone via the Internet.
Key features (for now):
*Play solo vs. computer
*Play with buddy on the same phone
*Play with another player over the net (push notifications) - Beta
ZUNE LINK (or THIS LINK) for download
>>Help me, go to THIS LINK and LIKE my game<<
I can win a WP7 phone and continue to develop more awesome apps, that are actually tested on a device (this game was entirely developed on the emulator)

I would like to hear some suggestions how to improve the app.
Good idea. Tell me, whether can play with buddy by bluetooth or only by internet ?
No Bluetooth for now... as far as i know, wp7 don't support Bluetooth integration in that way, so hopefully "mango" will change that...
EDIT: I have done some research and it seems that even "mango" has no Bluetooth API so there is no way to implement the multiplayer mode with that... maybe in "tango"

Can you have more than one game going at a time? I would like to have a few games going.
i'll test it out and give feed back
went to the marketplace but there's no way to download.

For now you can have just one game...
If you start another, the previous is cancelled.
I just want to make shore, that if someone want to connect to a server, that on the other side is someone, that is ready to play.
But the main problem at this time is, that there is not that much player
I'm just curious... how are the push notifications working? Are there big delays or is it to tolerate?
The game is fun and the response time from when the other play goes is great.
But I don't understand why you need push notifications when you cant save an internet game. I have to finish the game or start over if I need to use another application.

Push notifications are needed to instant send the move from one player to the other (Pl1->server->Pl2).
At the mango update I want to create a server-client based game, so the user experience will be better.
For the multitasking thing... if you create a server, you can go and do what you want (start button). After a player has connected, you receive a toast notification.
But once the game is started, you cannot save a internet game. It's kind of a design flaw I know, but for now it's good enough. Mango will change that...
On single or multiplayer mode that shouldn't be a problem...

And when you create you're character you're given a nice description now too and older players will appreciate that you can name your character from the start.
Last is a screenshot of the new UI. I threw in the joystick because I like it but it isn't there by default.

Alot apparently I haven't played this one too much.
I like it so far, more refined then the first one. My biggest b!tch with it though is if your Xoom is wiped you lose all progress, with a game like this you think they would have some kind of cloud storage, also since you can buy in game points with real money, feels like a waste to invest so much time and have a woopsy moment and not be able to recover anything.
I love the online play with this though, seems a lot better than First Wave.

Well because it is free I believe I'm allowed to suggest that you search for the apk as a simple solution.
why it doesnt work on galaxy y?
any solutions to make it work on GT-S5360(galaxy y)??
