, having a smartphone was the objective. Now, it is normal that already have a Android phone out there standing unused and already think it has no use. However, that is not, is a smart phone, and can still be used. For example, we can use it to reflect our computer screen on a TV.
Basically, my situation was favorable to capitalize on an old smartphone not used. And, although I feel that my computer is really good, it is still an all-in-one, and that makes you have a problem, and that is not portable. However much one tablet has sometimes you like something as simple as taking the computer to the living room, and not have always fixed in one place. In turn, I have a Sony Xperia S which, although still a smartphone that goes well, has cracked screen as your everyday no longer give more. But then it occurred to me that he could take advantage of this old smartphone you no longer use, and more with all the possibilities. So, I managed to take my computer screen to the living room television, so I can use the computer without any problems. Not only that, but I can also take my computer to any screen in the world that has a HDMI connection and where there is an internet connection for my mobile. It’s all about using your imagination. Here we report the steps you can follow to get the same as me.
1 -. Seek an old smartphone, but able
first thing you have to do is locate your old smartphone. Sometimes not even have to be yours. It is possible that someone in the family has an Android phone you no longer use, you may even have several and have no problems in letting us one. It could be that I had it for cases where yours is damaged, and decided prestárnoslo while its main smartphone work well. There are many possibilities and chances are that we or someone close has any spare phone you no longer use and we can leave. However, it must be a phone that has certain capabilities.
. 2 – Prepare it for connection to HDMI
able with that, we mean that we offer the possibility to connect to a display, that is, removing the image of the phone to a TV via an HDMI cable. Sometimes the TV itself could include the possibility of receiving the image from another device, or even may have some device to send the image we have connected to the TV. Anyway, we have to find a way to do it. Many Sony Xperia include a HDMI output so you can connect the phone directly to the television. Some Samsung not carry this out, but have dock bases that perform the same function. In all other cases, you must check what the possibilities are, because maybe rooteándolos find any economic opportunity, it’s all a matter of taste.
. 3 – Find the software for the PC
Depending on the computer you have, you can use a software or another. We have found a generic application that you may serve, but can you find any that you send the image to your computer and operate more smoothly. Again, much depends on your computer. We have chosen two Splashtop. This software can be installed on the computer and thus send the image that is displayed to other devices. you must install the program on your computer and restart it so that drivers can run.
. 4 – Install the application on your Android
In this case, we have to install the application on a smartphone or tablet with Android, which will later be connected to the television. To do this, we just have to go to Google Play, Search Splashtop 2 and press Install.
. 5 – Create account Splashtop 2
Once you already have the software installed on your computer and your smartphone, then you only have to create an account on the Service, to access later from the two devices, creating the link between your computer and smartphone.
. 6 – Connect your smartphone to TV
Finally, all you have to do is to use the means we have to connect the smartphone to the TV, either directly cable, a dock or wireless connection. So, we will have the image of your computer screen in the main home television and can easily play videos, or just using it remotely without having to go to him.
