I'm using TeamViewer QuickSupport on my two Samsung devices, but it seems to need a device-specific add-in to work on other devices.
The device in question is a CubieTruck as in http://tinyurl.com/mjzejs4.
Actually the TeamViewer product almost works. Connects to the device, gives stats about the device, allows file transfers... but when it comes time to connect to the desktop it mis-interprets the device's "OK" to "Refused".
Does anybody know of another product that allows a Windows session to connect to an Android desktop?
Seems like there are plenty of products that go the other way... but Windows ==> Android?

With the Windows version of Remote Desktop you can use the CLI switch '/console' to take control of the current console session of the server you are Remote Desktop'ing into as long as its 2003 Server or later. Is this possible with the Remote Desktop Mobile client?
With the Windows version you just start it with 'Start, Run, mstsc.exe /console' and this attempts to connect to the current console session.

to my knowledge, not possible - at least I haven't managed to do it . Also see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=288506
note that if you don't strictly need RDP, some other, proprietary clients do offer console-like features - also see the above article for more info
This is an old topic, but one of the first Google search results for 'Remote Desktop Mobile connect to console'. I've been fiddling with this for the past few days and wanted to share my experience. I say experience because I haven't reallydone anything to achieve a /console connection with RDP mobile.
I'm running WinMo 6.5 Pro and using the standard RDP client it ships with. I am connecting to my home PC, which is running Win7x64 Ultimate. If I choose to log in as a currently logged in user and provide the proper credentials, I am connected to the existing session without any hassle.
I don't know if this is a new feature of terminal services/remote desktop on Win7, or a designed advantage of the mobile RDP client.
If you need to connect to a server console session specifically, take a look at this link on how to configure your server in advance to facilitate this:
EDIT: I'd post a link, but apparently my account is too new to do so. Oh well.
I was wondering if there was any software for either, home automation or remote desktop connection. I've searched for home automation and can't seem to find a definitive answer. As far as remote pc goes... I want to be able to see and access all the files on my laptop, from my phone.
you could host a ftp server on your laptop
^ would that allow me to access all .doc and .jpeg files... oh and also music files as well... those are the only extentions i'm really interested in accessing.
sorry for the poor post quality, i'm posting from workon my raphael
absolutly, I am using guildFTPd(freeware) to host. However I can't use TotalCommander to see the dir/file structure, I have to use FTPview. There are other free ftp servers as well (FTPShell Server). Just make sure you use strong security, I do get occasional people/bots trying to getting in the server.
There are also applications like RemoteAdmin, PCAnywhere, VNC viewer to take control of your remote machine ... but if all you want is to access files the FTP approach is better performance wise.
is there some sort of LogMeIn hamachi client for WinMo? I know for PC's it puts two computers on the "same network". that might work, if there is...
You could also try running Orb (free) on your laptop if you want to be able to access files remotely. Allows for all media files specifically but also has a built in file browser.
Also allows for streaming video etc (can be great if you've got a TV capture card on your laptop at home and you want to watch TV from a remote location)
dont know anything about home automation, but
take a look here:

allows you to control your pc remotely from your phone.
Also, there exists a mobile version of remote desktop connection. Don't know how to get it, though, as it was already cooked into the rom i'm using (PROven ROM 2.4 21018 UNPROTECTED by qsqa) .
You can both remotely control a PC and access file shares with features built into Windows Mobile.
To control a PC
I have successfully used Remote Desktop Mobile on my Fuze (standard ROM) to control my home PC. My home PC is Windows XP Professional (XP Home does not include the RD server). It works great considering the screen size. This solution is much simpler than installing 3rd-party software on both the phone and the PC.
To access files on a PC
I have used File Explorer Menu | Go To | Open Path | New Path to access file shares. I haven't done this a lot but it seems to work fine. Configuring a share is much simpler than installing and configuing an FTP server. BTW, Windows XP Professional includes an FTP server.
To use either of these features you must have an appropriate network path from your phone to the PC. The easiest way is to use your home wireless network. Then you only need to worry about the software firewall on your PC.
If you use the provider's network, you must properly configure all firewalls to allow appropriate ports, and configure your router to port-forward appropriate ports to the PC. You must also either (1) have a static IP for your home network interface, (2) track your dynamic IP address as it changes, or (3) use a service that maps a host name to your dynamic IP and automatically tracks changes. It might be easier just to store files on a web site, then you don't need to even keep the PC turned on.
I'm looking for a remote desktop program that will allow remote login to a wm6 phone ie running a remote desktop server on the phone (not client). Basically I have 2 - wm 6 phones and I'd like to be be able to control one of them remotely either via my main phone or pc over the internet. I'll keep searching, but if anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be appreciated. I have read multiple articales about a Real VNC solution but their website yields nothing.
Thanks
This flavour of RealVNC works fine for me...

Yes what client do you use with that? Also how has it been working for you? Reliable, fast etc? Looks like very limited support and documentation for that project. I actually didn't realize the CE software can run on WM.
Ok so I figured it out (I feel kinda dumb asking what client to use). So I downloaded the real vnc viewer and got it working. The only thing I'd really like to do now is get some sort of dyndns type service going on the phone as restarting it changes the ip everytime.
I am newer to Android development but would like to know how to communicate with my Windows 8 (7 or XP) environment over Adhoc from my Android phone. I have researched this topic and I generally see people refer to the play store to download an app. I don't just want the functionality, but I want to know how to do it myself. Whether if there is a specific library I can use through android development, or if their is some command line option I can use via Android to do this.
So, how would I go about browsing files on my Windows machine without using an app? I know the Android O/S (at least what I gathered from the articles I have read) does not support this. So what are developers doing in their apps to create this connection? Or what is the best book to buy to help me understand how to do this?
Thanks!
google about android socket file transfer
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.
