Why are the remote access options for android so few and far between for android phones?
My goal is to be able to support / configure android's by remote, logmein rescue is exactly what I would be looking for, however it supports screen sharing in every other cell phone OS except android.
Anyone have a good direction to point me in? It needs to be able to run on stock / non-rooted phones, asking my clients to root would be impossible. A painless setup on the clients end is also needed, I can't have it take more then 2 mins to remote into the phone and I can't have it hard to configure for the clients.
I support about 500 clients - most with smartphones - most with very basic technical knowledge, I would estimate approx 100 iOS devices, 100 Android devices, Blackberry's and windows mobile as well. Walking people over the phone for email setup and troubleshooting takes forever.

I'm looking for the same thing actually... Anyone?
Microsoft Remote Desktop is a free Android App on Google Play. "With the Microsoft Remote Desktop app, you can connect to a remote PC and your work resources from almost anywhere." This thread is to provide information about that app. These posts are supported by the Learning Never Ends team who have no connection with Microsoft.
The thread was prompted by portal article Microsoft Releases (Free) Remote Desktop Client for Android posted October 18, 2013 By Will Verduzco
The RDS (Remote Desktop Services) app was announced in a press release dated Oct. 07, 2013 "Microsoft is introducing the Microsoft Remote Desktop app, available for download in application stores later this month, to provide easy access to PCs and virtual desktops on a variety of devices and platforms, including Windows, Windows RT, iOS, OS X and Android."
On 18 Oct 2013 MS blogged that "Today is the GA for the Cloud OS! ... we have released Remote Desktop Services (RDS) apps into all these stores as well... Windows, Apple and Android."

Using Remote Desktop
Using Remote Desktop
When connected, your PC desktop is displayed full screen on your Android (Samsung Galaxy Note II in screen shots). Navigation, Name and keyboard icon are shown.
Pressing Navigation icon posts it to zoomed in screen. Dragging the icon around allows you to scroll the desktop.
Clicking on the name you gave to your remote desktop ("Desktop" in the attached screenshots) toggles overlay row of keys at the bottom of the screen.
Pressing on the keyboard icon toggles your Android keyboard or app keyboard with function keys as shown.
On Samsung Galaxy Note II, the pen can be used - for example, hovering over a list of threads in XDA forum shows brief description of content. In effect your Android device can be used as a touchscreen for your Windows PC.

So I've setup opensuse to run as a CUPS server for my network. I'm wanting to be able to print easily from both android and iOS mobile devices. There's an application on github called Cloud-print-connector and so far it's working great for both android and iOS, with one exception. On my android devices, all 3 printers that I've setup show in the list of available printers. They all have the same name so you can't tell which is which printer. If I change the default printer in suse, then the name that shows up in Android changes. Anyone have any clue why this might be? It shows up correctly on iOS and on other computers through google chrome web browser, but not in Android.
