If I had a nickel for every app in the play store that let's us android users control our laptop one way or another, I would have more than a nickel. So, out of all the apps on the play store that do this, I can't seem to find one that all allows the LAPTOP to control the ANDROID phone. So apps like Wifi Mouse would not work, I would want the opposite of what that does, so that my laptop would control my android. Any apps/programs out there that you guys have used before or have heard of? Wouldn't it be easier to make a pc program to control an android, than the other way around (that's what I thought...)?

Android SDK and ADB with the device emulator. Not sure that it would work over network tho.

Yeah, I need it to work over network for what I want to do to, or else no point in doing this.

Air droid won't let me use the keyboard keys of my laptop to have control over my android though. That's what I'm trying to do.

Does anyone know if there is any software out there
that would allow me to remote into my android phone via my pc? All I'm really looking for is to be able to remotely view the screen of my phone remotely.
There is a great software package out there made by
http://www.soti.net/
but they do not have software available for Android.
This would be for use with the new evo
Any ideas?
Thansk
Picme in market.
You can also setup dyndns if you know how and what it can do. They also have an app
I'm currently working on data access and full phone control. It's kinda hard to get everything working together.

Have you heard of this product?
http://airwatchstore.com/
I wonder if it really works with android. I don't have an Android yet, as I'm looking at getting the Evo later this week.
Will someone try the demo, and let me know what they think?
Thanks
*RoidRage I'm excited to see your product developed. I think your developing in a good niche as there doesn't seem to be very much software out there for this application of remoting into your phone. I'll definitiley have to give it a try.
I briefly looked at it. Appears to only be for Windows mobile and iPhone.

that's what I noticed too, however when you go to purchase it asks you what OS you have, and there is an Android option, but perhaps they are just collecting date, although in their wiki file it also mentions they support android.

***Developers Read***
I Have Four App Suggestions For Any Developers Willing To Take On Any Of The Projects!!
{Suggestion #1}.... Is A App That Can Be Run To Fix Parse Issues Sometimes Associated With Installation Of Apps, And If It Can Fix The Parse Issue, Specify Why!
{Suggestion #2}.... Is A App That Basically Asks Where On The SDCard (Or If Possible, Even Desktop) You Would Like The Current App To Be Installed, Similar To A Desktop Computer, Which Gives The Option To Choose Exact Folder/Desktop Location!!
{Suggestion #3}.... Might Be Reaching On This One, Lol!! But....
It's A Request For A App That That Makes Apps, It Would Basically Have "SIMPLE" Hooked On Phonix Options, For How Or What The User Would Like To Create!! Like I Said Probably Reaching Huh? Lol!!
& Finally Probably The One I'm Hoping For The Most....
{Suggestion #4}.... This Suggestion Is For More Options In The XDA App It Self, Such As.... The Ability To Bookmark Forum Page, Directly Return To The Last Page ( After Closing App), Upload Apps/Scripts Directly From Phone ( Instead of Home Computer), Edit Profile (Pictures), & Also Fried Request!!
Hopefully Someone Will Like At Least One Of These Ideas And Try To Bring It To Life...
Also.... I'd Like To Give A Quick Thanx To All The Developers!!

I'm not a developer, but in response to number 4. The XDA app is actually built off another app named Tapatalk Pro. The folks at Tapatalk Pro made this app special for us XDA users.
If you want a feature added, I would suggest contacting them. Best of luck on the rest!

Maybe reaching a bit if you want to create apps on your phone. Google has a tool called App Inventor that will help you create apps in a web browser on your computer:
http://appinventor.googlelabs.com/about/
What you are looking for is often called Rapid Application Development, or RAD. Searching for Android RAD doesn't help much, but it does show that there are other people looking for Android RAD.

We all know the standard favorite apps...Nova Launcher, Lightflow, Tasker, Pulse, etc. What is an app that you like that doesn't get a lot of attention?
For me it would be Root Call Blocker Pro. With its google group filtering, I was able to go on a website listing lots of common spam numbers in my area code and add those to a google group on my laptop. Now I have about 80 such numbers blocked. I was also able to automatically direct all unknown or private callers to my voicemail.
Webkey. Lets you control everything on your Android from any PC. Even turns your phone access into a URL so no installation required on the controlling PC. Great for using it as a media device when someone doesn't have an integrated multimedia setup.
Screen off and lock.
Desire S • Fallout V2.0.0 • xda premium
Profile Scheduler by Wetpalm, it's smaller and drain less resources then Lama. Scheduler is based on time table - no GPS locations but is free and extremely useful for someone having a fixed day by day routine.
Display orientator is very useful. It forces anything into landscape mode......

It might be a bit more useful if folks would include a link to the apps that are being mentioned. Because I'm bored at work and have nothing better to do, here are the apps that have been mentioned so far:
AirDroid
AlarmDroid
Smart Keyboard Pro
Awesome Wallpaper - as MissionImprobable pointed out, HOLY PERMISSIONS BATMAN!
SwipePad
gReader
Display orientator
Profile Scheduler
Screen Off and Lock
Webkey
CamScanner
TeamViewer
To this list, I would add:
AFV (Android File Verifier) - useful for verifying MD5/SHA-1 hashes of downloaded files
AIX Weather Widget - provides a great easy-to-read graph of forecasted temperature/precipitation for the next 24 hours
Network Monitor Mini - gives a customized overlay indicated current network traffic

Ok, here it is. The first public beta of CheapCast, an App that let's your Android Device emulate a ChromeCats Dongle. I decided to put this up for free since I believe it could potentially useful to a whole lot of people. If you like it and it works for you, feel free to just use one of the Donation options within the App.
I will also make the Source Code available in the near future (I'm still cleaning it a bit up). Just watch this space: https://github.com/mauimauer/cheapcast
I hope to further improve the App and welcome anybody who wants to contribute.
In my first PoC-Video I've showed CheapCast with YouTube, I've just uploaded another video showing Google Music streaming to a Nexus 7 running CheaCast: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ktmrXgj9qQ&feature=youtu.be
As this is the first public Beta please expect things to fail. I appreciate your feedback. Please log your issues/bugreports here: https://github.com/mauimauer/cheapcast/issues
Hope you enjoy it.
Get it on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=at.maui.cheapcast
or download it here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23060877489999237
Awesome thanks. I'll be testing as soon as I get home.
very handy!

Awesome concept, but I cannot get my Revue to cooperate at all. It force closes every single time I try to start the service. I've tried multiple reboots and re-installs. Blah this Revue is a POS.
Awesome. Planning to try this on my Nexus Q running CM. Finally give the Q a purpose in life once again
Thanks!
Works on my SGS3 and my Xoom.
Not on my HPTouchpad or my Ouya but I haven't tried very hard yet.
Like it a lot!!!!
Works OK so far. Great concept for sure!! I can get all 3 of my Samsung device to connect but can only get you tube to play. I keep getting errors when using Google play music. Says unable to play requested song.... Anyway, I have my galaxy note 8.0 and also a galaxy s4 connecting to a galaxy s2 skyrocket. I've even tried connecting just the note 8.0 and s4 and have the same issue. Hope to get this fixed soon... Would love to stream to my surround sound when I feel like jammin!
A explaination on what this does exactly would be nice.
concept
i dont know why people are using both sender and receiver as mobile devices i think the concept of this app is that your suppose to install this app on a android tv hdmi dongle and transfer content from your mobile device to you tv
This is really awesome can anyone recommend some good dongles? works great with my gnex via MHL, but still a bit troublesome

Reading this might help, Turn Your Extra Android Device into a Chromecast Receiver with CheapCast.
its to use one for sending and one for receiving, could be useful if u have a spare fone with hdmi.

Try https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast/
Both seem to have the same problems at the moment though, single channel? Loses connection with the sender after one or two tracks of a playlist.
Very much looking forward to seeing how this develops.

Tried loading up Cheap cast on a second device. (MK802 and ATV1200) It didn't like that at all, none of my phones could see any CCs in Music.

Same problem here, losing the connection after a song. The only way to get it working again is to either disconnect and reconnect the sender, or to restart the service on the receiver. Bar that, this is class

Had this issue as well. I found out, that CheapCast is registered as another device for Google Play Music. I already had 10 devices attached, so killing some of the old and not used ones fixed that problem.
Maybe you got the same problem, if its only Music that is not working?

Greetings all.
I'm looking for an app that allows multiple user profiles, such as:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-parallel-space-multiple-accounts-t3308715
All the apps I am currently running (GO Multiple, Parrallel space, Appclone, etc) only have the ability to 'clone' 1 specific game (clash royale in this case) with 1 single google profile. I want an app that allows you to create multiple. While using multiple of such apps does the trick, so to speak. Appclone started to fail and no longer boots up the clash royale game.
If anyone can help me with this, appreciate it.
Using the S7 on Android Marshmallow. And I'm rooted.
Regards,
Skyrider
