Currently, I am using a program called wireless keyboard. It lets me use my Computer Keyboard to type on my Android wirelessly. Pretty awesome. But I would like to know if there is a program that lets me use my Computer mouse to control android. Thanks.
phonemypc might be what you're looking for but it's not a continuous connection. the refresh rate is rather low
-edit-
try gmote.

Someone developed an app for SonyEricsson phones:
http://www.jeyo.com/products/JeyoRemote.asp
Would be very cool if someone could do the same for the XDA II / IIs. 8) There's gotta be enough coders here who could manage this.
Would love to lie in bed and control my WinAMP playlist using my XDA II to suit my mood. (Or better to control my wife's mood with my WinAMP playlist? )
pocketpc have an program which is called
therminal services which does that
if one dont like that then there is also pocketVNC which does it aswell
i think there are many other programs which does it aswell
No, it's not so much a slow, bloaty remote-desktop program like NetOp or VNC or similar. It's more like a remote-control (IR-type) keypad which can be programmed to send specific commands to your PC over Bluetooth.
Those remote-desktop programs are just too slow and unworkable on this tiny screen IMHO.
then i guess it comes down to what you want to control is it just audio or is it a spc audio program like winamp
i guess it's just a matter of a program on the pc which just speak with a com port it dont know that it's using bluetooth at all
and a program on the pocketpc which also speak with a com port and send stuff that the pc program interp and control what ever have to be controled
maybe there are programs like that al ready
try looking at

Thanks for the links, Rudegar. Interesting reading...
The Jeyo one for the SonyEricsson phones can control anything, it seems...
Salling Clicker
My boss used a program to control his Apple computer, by using his palm-tungsten or his sony-ericsson t610.
That nifty piece of software is called Salling Clicker
http://homepage.mac.com/jonassalling/Shareware/Clicker/
Unfortunately, Jonas Salling is only into macOS and SymbianOS, and not into windowsXP and PocketPC :-(
But if anyone is looking for inspiration for such a tool, this is a great start![/url]
Is anyone up for the challenge of getting Salling Clicker to work for the XDA II?
(Please say yes, 'cause I just set my room up so my bed points at my computer display so I can watch DVDs etc.)
Cheers,

I use Total Input Elite Edition to control my laptop - I use it as a bluetooth remote control to control WinDVD, WinAmp and WinTV. The downside is with the built-in bluetooth stack you have to activesync over bluetooth if you want to create a network connection with the laptop and Total Input is a bit slow loading themes (there's a limit of four).

If u only want to remote control winamp why dont try RemoteAmp? Works great!

Hmm, looking at that link...
Is it possible to use the infra-red port of the XDA II to control the TV/VCR/CD Player etc? I seem to remember someone saying a while ago that the IR Port isn't powerfull enough.
Is it possible?

Is there an app similar to the Air Mouse for iPhone or GRemote for use with WP7? I use my phone to control my computer's pointer when streaming content to my tv. So anything that will let me control my computer over wifi would be nice.
Thanks.
I don't think such apps exist, but you might want to consider other ways of controlling streaming with your WP7, they might be actually better if you're streaming from a Windows PC.
Im getting my Omnia 7 next week. Is there no app to remote control Zune Software on the PC?

There is an App called Win+Ctrl+7 in the Marketplace works just like Airmouse on the iphone.
Hi,
I'm looking for a remote desktop app which has mouse support. I'm currently using Teamviewer, but it's quite annoying that I have to use my mouse to control the virtual mouse.
So if anyone has knows of an app that would suit me, please let me know
Would be very nice to connect the phone to a screen and get access to a powerful computer and not feel like you're using a RD but the real thing.
EDIT: If it's not too much to ask, I would like the option of running as high resolution as possible.
i want to conrtol my MK802 from my android phone

The only solution so far I got is to switch from original ROM to Christian Troy's CM10 including Zulu99's DroidMote patches.
I am still not allowed to post links, so if you're interested, PM me.
Don't know how similar but I love Splashtop 2
I do not know what "DroidMote" is, but I use Unified Remote as my Android remote control. I watch a lot of stuff on my computer, hooked up to my TV, and it lets me use my Android keyboard as my computer keyboard, and the touch screen like a laptop's touch pad. It's a little jittery due to latency, I think, but it gets the job done. From the couch, I can open VLC's Media > Open and browse my local (PC's) file system and play music or video. The free app has some limitations but is usable enough. If you know VLC's keyboard controls, the basic input remote works well. Only, I use SwiftKey Flow, and sometimes it doesn't send key presses to the system (it wants to build a word). I have a Tasker profile to open the keyboard selector when Unified Remote opens, but it's annoying, so I have it disabled presently.

Unified Remote has nothing to do with DroidMote. (I use both.)
Hi Everyone,
Most people are asking how to mirror their phone's screen to a TV or PC monitor. Well I need to do the opposite. Does anyone know how I can mirror my PC screen to my Nexus 5? I am looking for the option with the least lag, even if it is via USB and not wireless.
Thanks in advance!
I would say your best bet would be to use Chrome Remote Desktop. Download the app on your phone, and download the chrome extension on your PC.

Thanks. I will try that. Do you know if it is laggy?
Actually I don't need to be able to work with my desktop through my phone. All I need is to see what is displayed on my PC with the least lag possible.

It has worked the best for me out of all the similar apps (i.e teamviewer). However, it depends on what you need it for. For example, if you want to mirror videos it might not work well.
You can try splashtop, it usually is pretty smooth https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splashtop.remote.pad.v2&hl=en
or even microsoft's own remote desktop app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.rdc.android

Thanks a lot, splashtop works reasonably well. I have an AMD video card, so I suppose that helps a bit.
I do not need the desktop controls, etc. I need so to say, just use my phone as a monitor, so if I can find something with even better quality and sacrificing those controls it would be even better

The quality will all be down to the network on both ends.
So the download speed of your phone and the upload speed of your home internet. If these are weak you will always experience problems.
Apps like teamviewer help as they connect to a middle man server which means you are less likely to see as big a delay than connecting directly where the connection as I said above is more dependant.
Not used splashtop personally. Microsoft's RDP is alright but I'm happy with Teamviewer i use it on all my pc's i work on. Having it on my mobile just means I can work from anywhere remotely.

Ok. So I was wandering if there is a way to do that via USB in order to avoid the internet issues, of course only if it can get better. I am not sure exactly what bandwidth is needed to stream my 1080p screen and if it can be done smoothly via micro USB.
Other than that I have an acceptable amount of lag with splashtop, yet it crashes if I go full screen on my PC for some programs (I tried a few games too). But running in windowed mode works fine.
