Looking for a good, reliable remote desktop app
-HTC Sensation 4G w/ CM7 SelfKang
splashtop and logmein are the best bar far
It's not RDP, but Logmein is much better than RDP for most purposes. It's spendy, but worth every penny.
There is also Remote RDP Lite on the market, but it's barebones and doesn't always work.
TightVNC Server for Windows, android-VNC on the mobile. Fantastic.

I had used mocha vnc for windows mobile,
I am not impressed with the touch support, I had used vnc on the iphone before and it works much better with multi touch support.
also is there good vnc server that I can install on my phone
regards
I am also interested. Any information on this??
You can use default Remote Desktop included in all Windows versions (it's included too at WinMo). I have used it, and it works fine. The only problem is adjust the remote desktop to the screen of the HD2...
I'm not liking the stock Remote Desktop.. seems like it connects whenever it wants to.. Any other paid apps that do the job good, with pinch to zoom ? I have an HD2
+1 im interested too..
Moved as not software release.
I'm not sure about Remote Desktop but if want to use VNC then MochaSoft VNC is well worth the asking price.
Is there anything that supports HD2 PINCH ZOOMand looks just as good as the original MS Remote Desktop ?
What is the best application for remote desktop?? I used LogMeIn Ignition only that it is very uncomfortable because you do not have to touch something, but you have to select where you want to marry the image to bring it to the center of the screen pointer
I like using androidvnc and it's free. It's pretty easy to control and it suits my needs but I've never tried logmein ignition or any other paid apps and I don't use it to do a lot

TeamViewer VNC and I tried but I do not like there would be other alternatives?
TeamViewer is awsome if your client are using it.
PocketCloud (pro version is kinda expensive) for everything else (it does RDP really really well)
I use Xtralogic Remote Desktop for a remote desktop connection. Works great, because you can move your mouse like you do on a touchpad on your laptop. So you don't have the problem that your finger is not exactly on the screen what you want to hit.
First, confirming that Android TV works over 4G and WiFi on my G2x on all of the remote computers I've accessed.
My purposes for this app is for remote tech support for family and friends. I was looking for an app that was affordable, and one that I could use both my laptop/DT and Droid to access other computers.
Haven't had a single force close and I've tried just about every option available in the app. [Currently running CM7 #103 on faux123's OC/UV.]
Couple great things about the app:
1. EASY to use.. (install app, install client on remote PC, Input ID/Pass to Connect)
2. FAST interface. Even with 4G I was able to quickly run around on Desktops. The mouse uses touch-screen control. The keyboard works great. I haven't tested this in "optimized quality" yet. But you can adjust the quality based on your needs.
3. FEATURES are enough for any remote tech support. I haven't tested it for remote TV/Movie viewing from PC to Droid.. but I don't think TV is regularly used for that purpose anyway.
4. Oh.. and of course, TV is FREE. I've had a few people recommend LogMeIn, but the app costs a mint and the RDP client for PC to PC access is licensed at another montly/yearly rate... The WYSE app is another popular app (Still expensive), but TV just seems easier to use for both Droid & PC-based Remote Viewing.
Please let me know if anyone has had an equal or better experience with PocketCloud or any of the Microsoft RDP apps. For now, this seems like the best free (client-based) app available for remote win/mac desktop viewing/control.
Note: I'm aware there are threads for this app in other phone model forums. The purpose of this was to confirm the apps reliability on G2x (running CM7) and further explain the features available in comparison to other similar apps.
I been using it since I got my G2X back in feb. could'nt use it on my My Touch 3G. Cant wait to get next years 4.5+ inch quad core phones. The Dell Streak should have sat out a year and lost some weight lol.
Yea i've been using TV since i got my g2x also, it's great. Free and e z to use and works really well... i use it to spy on my girl when im gone with the web cam. j/k... no really
What is the nameof the app?

Just tried out TV with my G2x on my work computer and is so smooth running on the G2x. Very impressed in the app
Been using team viewer on the g2x for a while now. Works excellently. Been using it mostly to start up my Minecraft server for my buddies when I'm not at home lol.

Does it stream sound from your pc to phone? Allow you to mount ur SD card as a network drive on the PC, etc?
I would love this
What is the best RDP client for my TF700?
One that i can stream video/audio to my TF700 from my computer without hickups.
I see that PocketCloud have one... that cost a bit of money if you want to use 1920x1080 resolution.
I dont mind paying if i know it works good.
PocketCloud
PocketCloud works very well.
Why not download the free version to see if you like the results? The only features the free version lacks is the ability to configure multiple servers, custom resolutions, and support for WYSE's encryption scheme.
Streaming full-motion video over RDP is going to be a tall order for any app because of the limitations of WiFi and the fact that RDP isn't optimized for that kind of full-frame rendering. Have you considered something like installing Remote Potato on the server side and using Remote Media Center on the tablet side to stream your content? There are of course other packages for streaming content such as Plex or PS3 Media Server if you prefer something not dependent on Microsoft's Media Center framework.
I'm also a fan of PocketCloud; I even bought the paid version. For video I've had a lot better luck with MediaHouse and a UPnP server on my desktop.
I have used them all and the best by far is xtralogic. It does everything using native rdp compression so it is fast, has support for remoteapp, and is as "real time" as you can get with a rdp session. I currently have several users that use their tf700 as a thin client for their primary desktop. It works very well and is highly customizable.
If you are not tech savvy, go with a different one though. It requires a real rdp connection- so it works with terminal services and gateways flawlessly. If you know how to connect to the computer that you want to through a regular windows rdp session-- this will work the exact same.
The best I have found for the video/audio streaming requirement is splashtop thd-- IF you have a recently made nvidia graphics card. Can't beat that combination.
Splashtop 2 works great.
I bought PocketCloud, works nice yes!
Google updated their Youtube application, so that works very well now too.
But i use RDP often to my servers, so i bought it anyway.
For video stored on my server i found a file browser application with a nice SMB addon/builtin. File mamanger HD (play store link)
I've tried root explorer, astro, and a bunch more, but i found this the best. Can save shortcuts to shared folders on my fileserver.
I also bouhgt MX player (pro?) and it plays almost everything!
It's soon becoming a laptop replacement.
