Hi Guys,
I was wondering if there is anyway yet to view the Xoom screen on PC..
Something like this...
I did search the forums but couldnt find anything..
Thanks,
Abhinay
What you could probably use is a VNC server on your device and then connect to it via a VNC Viewer on your PC.
Something like this should work: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.onaips.vnc&feature=search_result
Thanks.. i will try n let u know
Cant this be done without rooting?
Try connecting to the HDMI pc port. Every modern gfx card has one. After that just select on your tv HDMI as source

You could just use android screencast. I normally just use it for my cell phone, but I connected my xoom to it and it works with that too. You need to have the android sdk installed and the xoom has to be detected by adb first before it will work. The keyboard works, but I haven't been able to get mouse control to work with the xoom. The menu buttons in screencast work though.
It's a little slow, but it's free and works for giving control through the PC. There is also an app called WebKey that you can get from the market, but you have to have a rooted device.

You have to turn on USB Debugging first, goto Settings -> Applications and then there should be a USB Debugging option under there.

The ddms tool in the Android SDK will get screen captures over USB Debug of course.
Anything remotely?
I don't think it's possible without root because you need to take snapshots of your phone and taking snapshots needs root. (unless you use ddms)
Zeam launcher can take screenshots of your home screen (not tested by me). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=664149
But I think you are talking about live watching your mobile screen on PC, aren't you?
Most of these live view server take pictures of your screen and send it over the internet. There is also the issue with port forwarding. The only service that has pulled off remote screen viewing server without port forwarding has been teamviewer.

Teamviewer exists for Android? I'm fine with the picture taking...
This is fairly new to the forum if you haven't seen it.. but it does require root.

Does not have to be over USB. ADB can connect via TCP.
Code:
- disconnect device from usb then tell it to listen on 4455
adb tcpip 4455
restarting in TCP mode port: 4455
- connect to the device using a specified ip:port. my device is using wifi
adb connect 192.168.1.103:4455
connected to 192.168.1.103:4455
- now do normal adb commands over tcp
adb shell
- when your done, you can put it back in USB mode
adb usb
restarting in USB mode
You can also set an environment variable called ADBHOST with the IP address and adb will attempt to connect to that ip.
Now I am not sure if DDMS can connect to the device over tcpip, but if adb can, and ddms uses adb to connect, it should be possible.
BUMP. Any success here?

Android ScreenControl without root
Have a look at this ... Its something I have been working on ...
http://piglings.blogspot.com/2011/08/android-screen-control-without-root.html
Hope that helps !
Cheers,
Vikram.
I found this and thought it will be helpful as I ended up on this thread during my search.
NO ROOT REQUIRED!
Follow this link: it has everything.
http://www.mymobiler.com/
So far only PC is supported I think.
The app also gives you the ability to use your PC keyboard remotely over wifi, it also has shortcuts for home, menu, back, etc.
The one thing that you might need to figure out is the display option in the mobile app settings.
I chose to keep it #3 - others ... that's the only way I can see the screen on my razr maxx!!
Also, if you are having weird screen problems, the website has the FAQ section and other pages to tweak the settings so that it works fine!!
Now it is a bit slow ... but none the less very useful ... I use it to change music while my phone's connected to speakers and chatting with people on Viber/WeChat/WhatsApp ... comes in pretty handy!!
Hope this helps!! cheers!!

Easiest way I've found to do this is by using a program called MyMobiler http://www.mymobiler.com
This was tested on ViperS 1.1.0 ROM and works like a charm.
1) Enable USB debugging on phone and connect USB.
2) Install and start MyMobiler on your pc.
3) In your systray on pc: right click the MyMobiler icon and select Connect. This will install MyMobiler on your phone.
4) Start MyMobiler on your phone. Enter settings as below.
5) Repeat step 3 and you should now be able to see and control your phone from your pc!
Settings are as follows (on phone)...
All display related settings on auto.
Display resolution: High
Change touch: Service-Touch
Change touch method: Ginger
Change touch origin: Default
Also, enable the MyMobiler keyboard from within settings if you want to use your keyboard to type!
Hope this is useful for someone!
Can't get it to work.
The Windows part and the Android parts both install on their respective devices but they don't communicate.
ADB recognizes the phone, but this program does not.
i ever tried remote windows from phone, but never from windows to phone
if you want to remote windows from phone, just use team viewer, and it will works like a charm

That's strange. Maybe it has something to do with USB device drivers in Windows?

That's very weird. usually if adb recognizes the phone (which means USB driver is installed correctly), then program based on adb will work. Do you see something like the attached image under device manager?

I have tried it and both are connecting well.
However i am only able to use it for typing and not for selecting icons on my handset.
ok, just another option, you can try our new app, vmlite vnc server, it will surely work, you have full control of the phone, wifi or USB, rooted or unrooted devices.

so far, users like it
Airdroid app is not bad either.
You can use a standard browser to control your phone.
Hi all,
I love my phone, and the roms all these prouds guys are releasing out there. I'm currently on CM9 by Dhiru (alpha12).
My problem is that i really need the thetering feature that Android OS provide; is necessary for me, but i faced a lot of problems with my i9003!
when i was in GB Stock, i was able to share internet via Wifi and Bluetooth to my linux box (yeah, i'm on linux) without any issue, but for the usb theter (the best way to do it for battery and security related stuff) i hadn't any luck. I passed to CM9 for all the features it provides, for the good loking and couse is really better that GB in all parts!
But now, i not only be unable to theter via usb if also with bluetooth and wifi!!! wah
So now i would like to know if someone can point me in the right direction to find a way to use theter on my phone!!
Ah, no WEP tether here plz
P.S.
with a galaxy y i can succesfully usb tether on my box...
P.P.S
srr for my awful english
Use a 3rd party app for internet tethering!
Tethering in Cm9 alpha12 don't work. Its a known bug. You can use apps from play store.

wifi tethering with third party apps works only because set the wifi in ad-hoc mode instead master mode, and i won't to set my shared connection in this way, also because of WEP enc.
The usb tethering apps works only (i suppose couse never tried) for private driver installation; that means no universal way, that mean i need to install these apps and proprietary drivers on the machine i want to use, and again is not feasable!
so, these 2 options are not a solution.
And i have to say that the usb tethering seems to be broken in linux on i9003, couse i can succesfully usb tether (wifi ofcourse work) from a galaxy next!
Try this app. The phone was recognized without doing anything when I used it (linux, I had to install Samsung drivers on Windows)
wow

It worked for me.
I tried native thetering on my laptop using a network-manager (useful when you have to manage several wifi networks..) and everything worked without really doing anything, no ifconfig, dhcpd etc, I just plugged the phone. Maybe if you do things manually there's something extra to do, I've never tried it because in my case "no network-manager => cable avaible => no need of thetering", but I might try one day.
Anyway the app I suggested is working great, it's as fast as native thetering, at least it was fast when I used it, it has a very nice interface and it bypass all the thetering restrictions your provider might set ;D
The only problem I have with it is that whenever I use it, I need to toggle "USB debug" to make this one work again without a reboot, but that's a minor thing. And another thing I noticed is that (in CyanogenMod) even though the data usage is correctly calculated, there's no "android-usb-theter" in the list and the traffic is equally spread. But as long as it keep tracks of it it's ok.
To edit the title: edit the first post > "Go advanced" and there you should see the option.
Mmh dunno,
but i'm on Chanogen 9 with i9003, and on a ubuntu box and network-manager running i hadn't any luck with the native theter, intead, with a galaxy mini it worked with both system out of the box... maybe is my phone

Tried this app.. Tethering works fine, but my external sd card, that is my micro sd does not show up on my comp (running Windows) in usb mass storage anymore.
When I installed this app and connected it to the it installed a mass storage driver, maybe that is responsible. How do u fix it??

Mmh, why did you use it if usb tethering is working fine under windows?
yes, probably is that driver that force to use it; did you used to have mass storage working before using that app?
and the drivers, was provided by the software itself, asked by windows or what? where did you got it?
can you just uninstall it and try if work again?
I installed the tethering app.. when I connect the phone to the comp after that, the driver gets installed on its own ..and the external SD does not show up any more .. Both storage work fine in mass storage mode prior to the above driver installation ..

Actually, android supports bluetooth mouse so you can try to connect one to your device. It will show a crappy windows-like mouse arrow, I have tried it on tablet devices. For other cases like third party apps the device that should be controlled (not the controller device) must be rooted so that the app could do full range of work (swipe the status bar, click on home button, etc).
MyPhoneExplorer is exactly what I was looking for!
But I have a problem, I can't control my phone using it...
I installed it on my phone and my computer, I connect my phone via usb (I really need to be able to control it via usb, not wifi/bluetooth), then I can see all my contacts/phone infos etc... But when I click on "extras>control phone", nothing happens
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
Im sure adb debugging must be enabled, so goto settings>developer options>enable usb debugging , if you can't see dev options do > goto settings>about> tap on build a few times
USB debugging was enabled.
I found a solution: I connected my phone using Wifi, then I clicked on "control phone", it asked me to plug the USBcable, I plugged the USB cable, then disconnected my internet, and it worked!...
...for few minutes, then I got this error: "Couldn't receive FrameProperties".
Now every time I launch the application, I get this error

Hello,
unfortunately my S7 fell to the ground and what began with a very small pixel-sized purple dot, now spread all over the screen so I can't see anything on the screen. Thereby I can't confirm any prompts.
When I plug the device via USB to my Linux computer, calling for "adb devices" the phone is listed "offline". I also tried the ADB suite on a windows computer, where it is "unauthorized". I can't confirm the prompt as the touchscreen doesn't work.
Are there any cables, that allow to connect to a working screen (TV) or that allow multiple connections for PC and wired mouse? The idea is, to connect to the computer and then blindly clicking, hoping to hit the correct button eventually.
Is there a solution, using the hard buttons in order to get to a certain boot mode? I read something about this, but didn't find a way, yet. The phone is not rooted.
Best regards
Jens
