  issue 4 (Can not drag) commented on by Ryan.Beesley.swypeinc   -   It looks a little like dragging on the PC produces mouse up and down events on the device. In the device I'm testing, I'm seeing a lot of garbage mouse data that is unusable. On the flip side to that, the display isn't properly tracking the mouse data from the device to show a cursor.

  README Wiki page commented on by Ryan.Beesley.swypeinc   -   I followed Meyerman's post mostly. Install SDK, ADB drivers, et al. Connect device via USB. In one command prompt: > adb push androidvncserver /data > adb shell chmod 755 /data/androidvncserver > adb shell /data/androidvncserver in another command prompt: > adb forward tcp:5900 tcp:5901 Then start favorite VNC Viewer (I used UltraVNC) and connect to localhost:5900 Why my port number is different, I don't know, but it works this way.

  README Wiki page commented on by meyerman   -   I could not get the instructions on the README to work with Android 1.6 cynanopgen. I am running under root. What does work is: in one window adb shell ./androidvncserver & ( i run the server in a sdb shell window to see messages ) afterwards in another window adb forward tcp:5900 tcp:5901 vncviewer localhost:5901 Keymappings Android:Home = Keyboard:Home key Android:Back = Keyboard:ESC key Android Menu = Keyboard F1 key ANdroid:End = Keyboard End key The Keyboard works in text fields. Great job! Many thanks to the authors

  README Wiki page commented on by milindr   -   It took me a long time to get this running. I adb pushed it to /sdcard and tried changing the permissions to make it an executable. But chmod does not work on /sdcard. Finally, I deleted the file from /sdcard and pushed it to /data/local. I was able to chmod 766 there. Runs well. But haven't yet figured out all the key bindings Home key acts as "Home Screen" button. F1 as the menu. But can't get figure out "Back", "Call" and "Hang Buttons". Long Press works on the home screen, but not on selected elements. Also haven't yet figured out how to scroll down a list. eg. in Astro, I can't figure out how to get context popup on a file or how to scroll down to see the next page. "Page Down" and "Down Arrow" keys don't work. The mouse scroll wheel does not work either.

  issue 1 (When running with windows version of android sdk getting err...) commented on by jjyst5   -   I also am having this problem. My guess is that the androidvncserver only works on a real device (not with the emulator) with a USB keyboard attached so that it can inject keypresses. Is this the case? There should be a way to tell the emulator that an external USB keyboard is attached which should get past the problem of: #./androidvncserver Initializing framebuffer device /dev/graphics/fb0... xres=320, yres=480, xresv=320, yresv=960, xoffs=0, yoffs=0, bpp=16 Initializing keyboard device /dev/input/event3 ... cannot open kbd device /dev/input/event3 Any help is appreciated.
