Hello all,
I have a galaxy note 3 and a pantech im-a880s..
My question is, is there any way I can use my android devices as a monitor of my pc? I mean, via usb not via wi-fi...I don't have a wi-fi connection in my home (sucks!)
I know there are remote control apps such as splashtop.. but none of them supports connecting thru usb!
I'm quite desperate bcuz i really need to get my jobs done with my pc within several days but my damn monitor doesn't work right..
to summarize : Can i use my android phones as pc monitors?
Thank you and have a good night! (Its nighttime here in Korea..:fingers-crossed
Really good Question i really want that too....

Hey everyone !
So here's the problem : I've got a Nexus 7 + Galaxy S2 I727R that I'd like to use at work. I could tether the connection from my S2 to my tablet and use that but I'm not on unlimited data plan. I also know I can share my PC connection via Bluetooth but that'd need a specific software to be installed, in the lines of stuff like BlueSoleil. Considering I have no admin rights at workplace, is there any alternative that would permit me to share the PC connection via a Bluetooth dongle without installing a software ? The BT dongle is detected AND installed via Windows 7 but there is no BT icons in the bottom-right corner and there's no built-in BT-software on the computer.
I did my research on the PortableApps forum, which would be a decent option but I can't seem to find anything...
Anyone had any luck sharing Internet over BT on a workplace PC ?
Thanks.
P.S : Remember, no admin rights.
Sorry you can't use a BT dongle without some sort of bluetooth software installed
Yes there are bluetooth dongles which are plug and play, which don't need installing drivers, see these ones for example
BLUETOOTH ADAPTER DONGLE PC LAPTOP-PLUG "N" PLAY - UK
Tiny Plug & Play Bluetooth 2.0 USB Dongle 100m range
Mini Bluetooth Dongle for Computers and Laptops - Plug N Play Transfer Files
Problem is all of them support Bluetooth 2.0 not 2.1+EDR, please advise and please help find a bluetooth dongle which is plug and play and is designed for bluetooth 2.1+EDR
Thing is, even with the bluetooth dongle working you won't be able to share Internet connection through ICS without admin rights. If anyone has a workaround on this, it would be appreciated!! I'd like to use my S2 more at work, but with 250mb / month it's left unused most of the day =/

Hello there,
I am trying to find use for my old devices, recently just had a bambino and im trying to keep him entertained whilst driving and its hard work. I was thinking of mounting my old SG Tab 2 tablet in the back of the car and control its functions via my old SG 2 phone in front, mainly video watching for him to be honest. My SG2 is rooted, I am currently using an S5 but I would like to stick with the older phone if possible.
I have been reading a little into using 'Tablet Remote' but as far as i gather the tablet needs to be connected to a tv.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
Hi,
I will have your thread moved to your device section. You will need to register on XDA to reply to anyone though.
Good luck!

Tablet Remote doesn't need a tv connected, Just 2 Android devices, here's the steps to use as mentioned in Google Play
1) Installation
Install the Tablet Remote on both devices;
2) Setup
For the receiver device (the tablet), go to the "setup" section and make sure the two options are check by selecting them and by enable Tablet Remote as a keyboard;
3) Connection
Go to the "connection" section and select the device you want to connect.
You'll have a notification on both devices when they connect with each other. If you don't find the other device, you can use the "scan device" and "make device discoverable" commands to make it appear in the list.
Only devices on your local area network (LAN) will be showed with the "scan devices" command. Make sure both devices have Tablet Remote on when you use that command.
If you have problem connecting with the device, try it with the other one or unbind both device and try it again.
4) Control
For the remote device (the phone), go to the "remote" section and you can start controlling the other device! In portrait mode, you'll have the remote setting and in landscape mode, you'll have the gamepad setting.
Gd man thanks for the help, i will give it a go and see how it works out in the car. Kudos
I have a Nexus 5 and i'm willing to connect via Teamviewer to a PC.
From where I am connecting I can use a screen and WiFi, USB keyboard and mouse and Aukey 7-Port USB 3.0 (powered usb hub found here)
What is the best way to setup this for a confortable environment?
I have to stay few hours using the phones teamviewer and do stuff in the remote PC.
Few ideas I have:
- Using Samsung EDD-S20E (samsung dock with HDMI output, but might not work due to incompatibility) or similar dock
- Chromecast 2 (miracast or any other)
- DeLock 65468, slimport micro usb to HDMI.
The problem is that I need phone to be charging during teamviewer since it drains a lot of battery, and also few usb ports for keyboard + mouse + storage, I've been thinking of the next:
-usb hub + OTG in the phone.
-chromecast 2
-wireless charging the phone while use, since I cant charge it while OTG I think.
Is there a better alternative to this?
I'm not sure I even understand your question. You install Teamviewer on your PC. You install it on your phone. You have a unique id to identify the Teamviewer PC session. You can set a password on the PC Teamviewer session so that you don't need to see the temporary password on the PC screen - so you have true remote access. You start Teamviewer on the phone, put in the unique id and password and connect.
What's all the stuff about Samsung docks, HDMI, Chromecast...? It sounds as if you'd find it simpler just to buy a second laptop.

Oh maybe i wasnt clear enough, its not about the Teamviewer itself.
Its more about:
What would you do if you had to stay connected to your pc from another place a few hours a day? using your phone of course...
Thats why I asked for a "confortable setup", so I could achieve this.
Well, in that position I wouldn't use my phone - I'd get a cheap second-hand laptop. The things you mention may be possible, but look like a great deal of unnecessary hassle.
As your question has nothing to do with the google Nexus 5, you would be best served by asking here TeamViewer Forum

Hi guys,
So I have a new challenge here... I have my new S8 and I don't plan to root it...yet (at least till I find an easy and reliable step by step procedure)...I wanted to have tethering capabilities so I installed PDA net wich worked fine with my laptop through USB cable. But I want to use it for my Fire TV. I installed the app in both my S8 and fire TV, and was able to connect via WiFi but with problems. It shows as Connected, but says Internet is not available. Any suggestions? I tried USB and didnt work either. They are both Android platforms so I figure there must be a way. Thanks in advance!
