RE: Android: How do you update the calculator?
Hello,

I've resolved the connectivity issue with one PC. On this particular PC, an Android calculator could see the Network Name of the Connectivity Kit on the PC, but could not connect to it. The problem appears to be permissions for devices.

On this PC I have McAfee firewall in place of the default Windows Firewall. I edited the firewall permissions for the Connectivity Kit application to grant access to all ports and all devices, as shown below.
   

McAfee provides three levels of access and only the most permissive level works. I'll investigate further to see what changes need to be made for the Windows Firewall application. That's the one on the other PC that seems to be strict enough that the Android calculator can't even see the Connectivity Kit network name. I guess we can thank Microsoft for protecting us half to death Smile

More, hopefully soon!
