I tried to use ghost commander on my phone to upload to dropbox or skydrive and the upload fails. It only works if apps are transferred to the SD card. I can't upload apks from the phone

and I don't think you can move play to the SD card. I tried this to get a different version of play that would work.

(I also wanted to have local backups of my apps as well as sometimes the new versions break things and If I get a new phone I'll still have my old good version)

I added an Angry Birds.apk to my Apps folder, it appears in my drawer but it fails to load... >.>

I tried even downloading .apks from attachments on xda but the download just keeps saying pending

If we can find a CWM zip of a file manager it might work, actually I still have some backups saved from my ICS install of ICS, lets see if they are separate apps or .blobs.....

Maybe there is a service or something that windows has, that is normally disabled in server you need to activate ?

how is this any different than Bluestacks (which does the exact same thing)

Only played with Bluestacks once or twice and from what I saw it only emulated to allow Apps to run in Windows, not actually give the full Android OS environment ?

This is probably be the x86 port of Android, a lot of Apps are still ARM-exclusive.

It probably includes or download's Intel's ARM translation layer.

BS is as the name implies BS.

It's not very stable and is more like a VM and not very beautiful at that.

Idk... not the biggest fan of BS.
Horrible UX.
