Hi, I wonder if there is an app that can use my android phone as a remote control to switch slides on my Asus tablet? I've noticed that there is something like this for the ipad and iphone, and was wondering if there was anything similar for android. Could anyone point me in the right direction where to look?

Does your phone have to be rooted for this?
I get error getting device list. Do you have to install something on the phone for this app to connect to?

that was a nice little app that i miss now that you mentioned it
webkey (root required) for control over phone
lazydroid & remote web desktop for sending SMS from computer and a few other features
they can be found in the market
I use Remote Web Desktop for SMS, which is the main reason I used MyMobiler to control my WinMo phone, but I still have to go on my phone to mark the messages read and to read them because there is a delay from when I get the message on my phone and when it shows up in Remote Desktop.
It would be really nice is there was a way to operate unrooted phones...
"my phone explorer" is pretty good and supports android,

No not yet, I've been out of the scene for quite some time.
Been searching everywhere for an app that will allow me to control my phone from the pc. Really need this due to my disability(and having just bought a massive galaxy tab).
I used to use my mobiler on winmo and it was great!
Would be willing to pay for the app also.

Hi mcnally,
I have successfully used 'droid VNC server' in the past.
What VNC client are you using on your desktop? I have used tightvnc, realvnc and ultravnc (they all do the same thing, just differently)
I had assumed that keyboards & mice were configured automatically, but there can be a "view only" option that may have stopped your keyboard & mouse from interacting.
Also - sometimes VNC is quite laggy, so laggy it looks like its not responding! your client should have a setting to reduce the color depth, this transmits less data & can help the lag but you loose colours. There may also be settings to reduce data transfer further, like handling the mouse on the client side etc...

What kind of network are you using?(I'm assuming wifi)
VNC can be a bit laggy at times, but its still good!

Wifi yes but i'd prefer to use usb, whatever is easiest tho. I was using the ultra vnc viewer, any other suggestions?
I use webkey, very easy to setup and can be used over 3G. You can even track where your phone is at the moment, or let it ring (like HTC's Sense )

thanks but i'm looking to control my phone from my pc
So I've searched for a bit and couldn't seem to find anything so I wanted to pose the question to the forum..
I'm basically looking for an application that I can use as a remote desktop share. Meaning I want to keep the desktop on my home computer active while viewing it and controling it from my phone.
The basic reasoning for this is to use Carputer front end SW to control a Home Theater PC. Carputer front end sw such as centrafuse is a touch interface and being able to use an android tablet or my thunderbolt to control the interface would be great.
What does everyone think? Do you know of an app? Have you been interested in this as well?
Search the market and web for "VNC".

Thought VNC only allowed for PC control not sharing of the desktop. I'm checking on that idea right now.

You are absolutely correct. VNC would do exactly what i'm looking for. Thanks for the input.

Someone first said he managed to get this android app on his mobile/tablet to remotely control his Android Smart TV..(http://forum.energysistem.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=30)
The thing is that this forum is in spanish only, and that the link points to a chinese page.... so I thought I'd stick it here !!!
This said, I tried it on my HTC Desire and on My Asus TFT101 and I definitely can control my tv with both of them
hoping it will help
b0b0
ps: I'm really interested in knowing HOW can this software connect to my Android TV without me entering any passwords ... This means I can go to anyone's house with an android smart tv & control it??!!!
Just going to bump this as its working well with my ATV1200
Anyone else had a go with it.. and is there any hacks to it?
Also been playing with this one.. but cant seem to get it to work..

For some boxes, you need to go into settings and enable remote control.

Anyone knows of a remote control app to put on an android?
something like logmein for the computer but for android?
It's really frustrating to try to help my parents over the phone where I could just remote in and be done.
THANKS!
