We have a discussion going on that I thought the great minds here may have some input on. Is there a way/app that will allow you to control your phone from a remote pc (i.e. RealVNC)? This can be any smartphone. Secondly, if you can use this app to connect/control your phone, can you then remote control a pc via bluetooth?
Scenario. I want to run a location based app and I am on vacation in florida. I log into my laptop and connect to my phone which is located next to my home pc. Then, using a bluetooth connection, remotely control my pc.
The constraint is that the location based app would launch a secure vpn connection, hence why we cannot connect directly to the pc via a remote session.
We would like to see if there are ways and test them. Nothing like trying to beat the system.

Is there a program or way i can use remote desktop without having a router connect to my laptop. So using the built in wifi on the laptop to connect to my HD2.
Or even bluetooth..
Just an idea as I can't have a router here at uni.
are you trying to basically surf the web from your laptop using your HD2?
you need something like internet sharing which is available on the Device itself (its a standard Windows thing). you need to set it up though, and of course make sure your device has internet access (GPRS/whatever connection methods).
Nah not using the internet, but to view and control my pc from my phone over wifi.
gotcha. why would you wanna do that?
but anyway...dont think it is possible like that as the wireless on the laptop will not act as a DHCP (like a router does) to give an IP to clients who are connecting to it.
It would be cool though to be able to use it as a remote control to perhaps skip or play music etc. But connecting through wifi would be impossible i think.
I recall with my old old old sony ericsson phone I could connect to my computer using a bluetooth dongle and control music and even the mouse cursor...such an awesome feature. A bluetooth program for the HD2 would be good providing you have a bluetooth dongle.
funny you should mention an app like that as I developed an app a few years ago which does just that called WMP Remote.
basically, you connect it via bluetooth or wireless (as long as you get an activesync connection going, or even wireless with a router) and then get a list of files from a certain directly, play/pause/vol up/down from the Mobile application and play files in full screen and so on....
haven't updated it in a LONG time but was a big hit back then.
also developed another app called DAR~ling, which is a Digital Audio Recorder

It looks an awesome App, but does not work with WM6.5 & Windows 7 (not sure which one cause the issue).
IMHO worth some re-development and putting on Windows Market Place $$$ I'd buy.

aww, thats encouraging mate! Thanks!
not sure why it doesnt run on your devices? I ran it on my Samsung omnia which runs WM 6.1 - works fine.
I've also got a WM5 device...works fine on that. the issues are just the screen display!
I have been meaning to "start" the project again but just had no time at all. been so busy.
HELLO
T2 REMOTE TOUCH
Very nice program. I use it to do anything to my computer because I'm too lazy to get down of the bed. I use it when it was beta and the only bad thing was that he only had color mode for free
Anyway if you can manage to create a wireless network connection (AD-HOC) with designeted IP's it's going to work. I don't know about the port dough.
Anyway, I have windows XP, and I don't know very much about win7's configuration.
GOOD LUCK
Is there some kind of app that i can use to connect to my pc and transfer (maybe control but mainly transfer) files to my phone. I need the program to work with IP not just local network - I mean I need to be able to connect from everywhere not just my local network.
im looking for something like this as well...
You guys should look at dropbox
Not sure if this is the right place to put this, forgive me I'm relatively new to these forums.
But what I have difficulty doing (without setting up a whole static ip / dynamic port or w.e) is trying to turn my home PC on remotely, off the network (technically), then I thought my tablet is always at home, connected to the internet, surely I can use it as a gate way to remotely turn my home computer on using a wake on lan app like unified remote, however I now need to find a way to remotely control my tablet (off network) to do this, I thought team viewer would have been the answer but it requires verification on my tablets end rather than password input to control it, does anyone have any recommendations?
I believe splashtop allows remote control but requires you to be on the same network unless you pay, mobizen will technically allow me but i'd need to 2 step authorise it on every PC i go to, which isn't practical for remote connection.
So wondering if theres anything easier which i've missed!
Good morning,
I have a problem, I guess I'm very stupid, but I can't use the quick share application - I don't have it on my windows - and I can't handle nearby devices either.
When sharing nearby windows, windows cannot see the phone - even if it changes the visibility to everyone, it does not change anything.
And how do you exchange files with windows wirelessly? Do you have any tutorials?
Do you have phone link enabled?

Yes
The phone and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
They are connected via BT
They are connected via the app via a QR code
The nearby device scan application from the phone does not find the computer.
Whatever I do, the devices cannot see each other, even though they are connected to the same WiFi network / via BT / connection application.
The only thing that I noticed about the irregularities is that when I am connected by phone to the computer using the connect application - BT connection is not established, and the connection attempt ends with a connection error.
Do you have security suite enabled av + fw? If yes see if it is blocking connections. Try creating a direct Bluetooth connection pc (add Bluetooth device) to phone
And check pc event viewer for errors
Quick Share/Nearby Share only work between Samsung devices. You have to have a Samsung Windows PC for this to work.
Greetings to all. I would like to know if via VirtualXposed (the quest 1 is not rooted) you can use a module such as Fake Wifi (or another one that I ask you to suggest) that allows you to make an app (in my case Pigasus a video player that I use in oculus quest 1 that uses android 7) think it is connected to wifi. I ask this because I want to use this app via shared connection from PC via usb cable using the app gnirehtet (reverse tethering over adb) to make it access shared folders on my pc. But when I activate gnirehtet, although the browsers normally use the connection provided by pc via gnirehtet in Pigasus I get the message "no connection". I assume therefore that Pigasus tests the wifi connection to work, however even if I in addition to gnirehtet activate wifi in the quest and it connects to the network in Pigasus I always get the message "no connection" and therefore no access to the shared folders. If instead before activating gnirehtet I activate wifi in quest 1 I open Pigasus and access the shared folders, the moment I then activate gnirehtet the Pigasus app crashes and closes. I do all this to avoid using wifi for Piugasus because using wifi with Quest after a while causes me headaches. I also want to avoid using the Oculus link because after a while using Oculus link and skybox VR to watch my videos, hosted in the shared folders of the PC, I start to see freez to the images, regardless of the settings made to the oculus server like giving it priority over the other pc processes, so the best solution for me is this via Usb-c. Too bad there is no usb-c to ethernet support possible. Thanks in advance to those who will answer me also by giving me suggestions.
