In android, is it possible to limit the the number of the devices that are connected to the phone via tethering?
The limit by the OS is 10 , is there a way we can reduce this value through an app ??
Or is there a way to restrict the bandwidth of the tethered connections?
thanks in advance
No and no, respectively. A custom build of the OS, installed via a modded ROM, presumably can do this.
Yes, you can by using third party Apps like WiFi Tether for Root Users. This apps will allow you to select which devices can use your mobile-data connection.

I just got my screen destroyed and can't see anything on the phone, and I need access to the phone quickly.
Since the screen is completely black I can't see anything but I use it for local Android development so adb and all the developer settings are enabled.
Is it possible for me to stream Android screen to my laptop and somehow recover my accounts?
Yes, you can use scrcpy to mirror your screen: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy

On a tablet, is it possible to install Linux on an SD card, and let it boot from it without the need to partition the internal memory and without touching Android?
For a native boot, out of the box, no. Android tablets generally have a locked bootloader and there would likely be driver issues. However, it has been done. For this to be done, however, you need to do quite a bit to the tablet.
I recommend you research which distribution of linux you want running on a tablet, then look for guides (such as on xda-developers.com), then buy the corresponding tablet.
You can emulate linux on your android phone. Take a look at this app:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zpwebsites.linuxonandroid&hl=en

I am developing an application which need to use both networks at the same time - via WiFi the app has connection with some external device, and control it, using of 3G network needs to download a firmware for device. But the problem is when you connect to WiFi the system automatically do the disconnect of 3G network. It seems that WiFi has high priority than 3G network, but I need to use them at the same time, it's wrong behavior of the system for me in this case
I saw a couple similar questions, but they have no solution. Is really android has no way for developers to control both networks even for versions higher than 4.03?
How we can solve the problem?
Do it in a linear fashion. Turn off the wifi and download the firmware. Subsequently re-connect to the device (re-enable the wifi) and transfer the locally stored firmware.

Could you please help me: is it possible to set proxy settings in Android (especially in Chrome)? I have to change IP on Android during the testing. Or there is some soft which can help me to solve this issue...
Found one solution for WIFI (works for Android 4.3, 4.4):
Connect to WIFI network (e.g. 'Alex')
Settings->WIFI
Long tap on connected network's name (e.g. on 'Alex')
Modify network config-> Show advanced options
Set proxy settings

Is it at all possible to get 2 Android handsets to see each other using the wireless interface? I'm not talking full-blown access-point mode. It would be cool if both devices could be actively looking for networks / devices whilst at the same time being 'discoverable' to other devices.
Is this possible in any way?
Thanks
Martin
Sounds like you want peer-to-peer ad-hoc networking which is not currently supported in Android. See Can Android do peer-to-peer ad-hoc networking? and http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82
If both devices have NFC chips and are really close (few cm) then doing the discovery with NFC might be an option for you.
