Remote connection with PHP using sockets

[madSac]

I want to control my android application from PHP.
I have knowledge of Winsock of VB6..but i am not able to implement it here as user IP can change anytime without any event.
& i am not able to use PHP with B4a Sockets.:BangHead:


I had an idea ,
Like using a Javascript page with an repeated interval refresh without loading using ajax. But it cannot be implemented here as it will waste user's bandwith.:BangHead:


:sign0163: Having Any IDEA ?

Please :sign0085:

This is an idea not a solution...

Take a look at the parse.com REST push notification service and the Android push notification service.

I experimented recently with this and found it was relatively easy to send notifications to a device from a PHP script.
The notification could be just that - a notification displayed on the device.
Or it could be a command for the device to execute some code.
This was all done in Eclipse using native android SDK and java.

We have a very basic B4A parse.com library here: http://www.b4x.com/forum/additional...y-beta-simple-backend-solution.html#post71147, and i was hoping to find time to create a more complete B4A library but so far haven't had the time (http://www.b4x.com/forum/bugs-wishlist/21980-parse-com-sdk.html#post127635).

Rather than trying to create a new B4A Parse library that contains all available functionality i could probably put together some code to enable you to use the Android push notification service.
That'd leave you to create PHP scripts to send notifications to your device - i have some code samples that would help here.

Does Parse push notifications sound like a viable option for your project?

It is Paid .....do you have any sample just to connect with B4A app & send messages via php or VB6 sockets
I want a Client Server Socket sample...hoping that i will do it...:BangHead:

For free you can access the Parse API 1,000,000 times in a month.
You can also send up to 1,000,000 push notifications a month for free.

Surely that's enough for your project?

I've got no knowledge of PHP sockets sorry so can't help there.

This credit would help me in testing my app but after releasing it won't
& it also seems that they don't provide api access.
I will have to modify my app later so...can't manage with it.

Anyone any other solution...
