How about just the desktop ? topic

I have googled how to display just the desktop on gear VR and always come up with results/aps showing how to stream games to the headset. All I want is to display the desktop so i can launch whatever i want (normal youtube, websites etc) all while using the gear vr. Latency is not much of an issue with this i would not think.

Anyone doing this? and if so can you share how (aps etc) or if its already been documented can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks

[Q] Is Sprint the reason I can't view desktop versions of web-pages? topic

I heard that the proxies Sprint puts your connections though are designed to compress and minimize data usage, things like replacing your browser's user string so it forces mobile versions of pages and so on.

Just about no page works when I choose to view the Desktop version of a page in FireFox, Chrome, or the stock browser, I still get the mobile version. The only thing that works is if the webpage itself has an option to display the mobile version.

So first of all, is Sprint the reason for this? And if so... well, I already attempted several things I Googled to fix it, none worked.

Pretty much everything mentioned getting into my EPST settings to disable the Sprint proxy.... but all of these are from 2012 or so, and it seems something had chanced since then.

It told me to go to the DSS settings and set my proxy and ip to 0, which I did.

It told me to disable reverse tunneling, which I did.

And it as well as most other guides told me to enter the RSTP/HTTP settings and set the proxy IP and port to 0, although I only saw an option for RSTP, not HTTP.

I did all of those (Minus the HTTP one since I couldn't find it anywhere) and still nothing, I only get mobile versions. Everything I tried to Google about it was three years old and just told me to do the RSTP/HTTP settings, a few also mentioned the DSS and reverse tunneling, but nothing had any new information.

Desktop os supported phones topic

Hi guys,
I couldn't find searching but is there any smartphone yet that support full desktop os? like Linux mint or windows 7?
or may be a list of such phones!!

I mean now that we have tons of phone with high configurations like Snapdragon 800 based phone (2.2 GHz quad core cpu, 2GB ram, 32GB rom). installing desktop os should be just matter of someone to figures out boot-loader properly. if ARM architecture is a problem we have tons of phone with x86 based cpu as well. (like Asus ZenFone 5 or 6 with Intel Z2580) this cups supports full x86 instruction set MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3 and all that.

the reason i'm looking for is, to use it as Single Board Computer. I mean a cellphone is much painless to to carry then a HummingBoard or Banana Pi box. there are bunch of commercial Single Board Computer that comes with desktop os it like "utilite2" but none of them are as slick and stylist as a modern cellphone! plus phone has its own power source and cellular wireless. and not mention its own display for the case when i'm unable to find a monitor.

so any suggestion?

thanks
