[Q] Remote Mouse App? - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody know of a good remote mouse/keyboard app for Android? I'm looking for something where I can use my phone as a trackpad/keyboard to control my PC or Mac. If anybody knows anything please let me know! Thanks!!

are you planning to be tethered to the pc ? (ie: connected thru usb port?) or are you trying to basically run a remote-desktop thru wifi a/o cell-system ?
honestly, i have no answer for you... but i must admit this is one of the more interesting questions ive seen... on the first-hand, the hero is way-too-powerful to just be using it as a mouse - altho i guess it could be used that way... otoh, i do not think that the hero would make an effective remote-desktop because it would be under-powered...
ah well, just curious... hope you find something that does whatever it is you want to do... if you are a comman-line-guy, i imagine you could remote-shell (using whatever putty-equivalent-terminals are available) into your pc...

GMote look for it in the market. works great over wifi. it is not marketed as a remote keyboard / mouse app. it is something like a video player. when it loads press menu and then touchpad.

I use TightVNC on desktop and androidVNC on phone, works well.

PS3 controller is also Bleuthoot
G-Remote
read the comments on youtube
Yea, G-REMOTE its awesome, and yes 100% possible with the app. Its a program that installs on the pc and ppc and runs trough your WIFI router and has numerous control capabilities.

Cool thanks... so all I need is to install G-Remote and then add the game on my PC?
Actually it's working for me too. It emulates a jostick so you can use it with any other game as well
A little hint: unfortuntatelly it's working for me only (i'm working on BT) through WIFI connection to the host, so i suggest you to try it with WIFI first
There's no game on PC (with the dload), the youtube video seems to be something the youtuber has on his/her PC.
This app just provides control functions for the PC.
any clues where to find the game(s), i will continue to search and update when i find something, this looks cool

I use Remote Touch and Remote Desktop Mobile, I have used the latter for 6mths over GPRS and am still impressed.
GRemote to control PC Media devices, also has a cool laptop Touchpad style mouse...
Cannot live without My Mobiler to control my Kaiser from my PC
ALL of these work over wireless lan, blutooth and the internet
how well does remote desktop work? Does it allow you to view your PC screen on your phone? Its something iv considered trying but iv never been to sure on what the results would be/whether it would be worth it!

Android Windows Media Center remote control???

Are there any apps that I can use as a remote control for Windows 7 media center? Preferably one that shows album art for the currently playing song etc.
I haven't seen any. I would love to be able to control my media center with my phone. A while back I made my own remote for my winmobile phone. It was functional but not very good looking or polished. If I had the time I might attempt to make one for android... but I will probably never have the time, especially if I want it to look good.
GMote works wonders for me.
Not sure if that will work for you, but I can choose to play video on my htpc, or stream the video from my htpc to my phone....requires a daemon to be running on your htpc plus the app.
I really dig it.
Yep, seconded, Gmote is awesome, not only integrated with media centre controls and streaming from the media centre to the phone as well but you can also use the touch screen as a mouse track pad and the g1 keyboard as the pc's keyboard, both absolutely awesome features. The server app running in the windows taksbar takes virtually no cpu or memory, auto starts and is found very quickly by the phone.

I have been trying to run the gmote program with my Windows Media Center (Windows 7) setup for about a week. It seems that the server on the computer crashes fairly regularly. Has anyone else been having this issue? I especially see this if my phone goes to sleep (black screen) and then I wake the phone back up.
I'm using an HTC Hero (CDMA/Sprint).
I would recommend switching to XBMC, I've been helping out testing this app which should be coming to the market soon and it's absolutely amazing works wonders for my xbox running xbmc.

Looks nice for sure. Just wish XBMC had DVR and live tv functionality like Windows Media Center.

Unfortunately, this program requires XBMC. I have my entire system setup to use Windows Media Center.
Windows Media Centre remote
Gmote is crashy and annoys me, i use Windows Media centre remote (on my android). But if the computer is busy, sometimes it reacts slowly. But it does not crash a lot.
As an update: The newest Gmote (2.0) works much better than the previous version I was using; maybe due to Windows 7, maybe due to the updated application. (Probably both). Anyway, it works much more reliably now. Unfortunately, there really isn't access to your playlist
Another option I am using now is MyRemote from the Market. Seems to be fast, stable, and provide more Windows Media Center type button access.

Media Center Control is a good choice. Search it with google or in the Android Market. It's a remote control with many features and works very well.

Has there been any development on this? WMC Windows 7 controls?

App suggestion - Use android phone as gamepad

Another suggestion if that's ok?
I had remembered that with the IOS vers. of the SNES emulator, that you could use you're iPod touch or iPhone as the controller.
Anyone know of any way to do that with an android phone? ie: use my android phone as a bluetooth gamepad to play emulators with.
I have searched google the past few days and have only seen the Wiimote apk. While that does work, it just seems more convenient to have a phone that is already with you able to do it, that and it only has a limited number of buttons.
Anyone else share the interest? Thanks! =)
+1 to this
I would definitely be interested in this as well, using your phone as the remote would be killer and extremely convenient!
That would be pretty cool. I hope someone develops something.
Yeah it would.
one up for this!
does a project like this exist (even under development) ? i just googled for an hour but i could not find anything useful.
Something that maps wifi signals from my phone to key press on my pc would be great to use with emulators
//edit
hehe... just after posting i found something
http://code.google.com/p/agamepad/
sadly its not under active development
oh and could somebody please move this thread to a more general android section? i just found it via google and then realized its in the xoom forums (where it does not belong imo)
This would be really cool.
Neat idea to contribute: Make it skinnable. So, you could maybe lay it out like the controller of whatever you're playing. (When using Nesoid, you could use an NES controller skin, when using Snesoid, you could use an SNES controller skin, etc.)
I'm more interested in using my phone as a bluetooth keyboard, but I suppose that could be part of it.
I have been looking for an app that will make my android phone into a remote control. I want to have my Xoom connected to my tv and use my phone to control the various media players that I use..
about android phone into gamepad/ keyboard
Hi, do have any news about this apps now? THANKS
try this
i use unified remote<full version> on a daily basis. it is my portable blue-tooth keyboard, media remote, mouse, etc... i even use it on my laptop. it comes with alot of preloaded remotes for various setups.i have never done it, but it does have a custom settings menu to make your own remote setup.. idk if this can control games, but as far as everything else, hellz yeah.
This is a great idea, skinnable would definitely be hot. Of course I got my PS3 controller working on my Xoom already....
I don't wanna root my device just to use my PS3 controller and I also dont have a OTG cable Im getting one in Nov though
well, i was looking for something like that as well. for weeks, but i found something great here at xda-developers its called "blueputdroid" https://market.android.com/details?id=berserker.android.apps.blueputdroid and its doing a great job even if the gamepad does not work this good .. but 4 example the psx4droid emulator made it possible to control via this app. its just need to be configured correctly.
oh thanks`, But "blueputdroid" is not suppot for my darky v10.2 Rom _ _!! and i also find some as similar as it " droidmote client" but it's support through WIFI only...
you can use DroidMote Server / Client in the android market.
look this video and search for other:

I'm not a great player and I am very tired after having developed a lot but this is a small example of the new features:

[Q] Can I control laptop media players with HTC One remote app???

Using my amazing new HTC One Black to control my TV and it is great, however a lot of things I watch are played through VLC on my laptop and output to my TV via HDMI.
I noticed on ebay you can get these really cheap remote set ups for computers via USB..
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280825953122?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
What i would like to know is do those computers remotes work any good? Would they control VLC? And could I emulate the remote with my HTC One???? All I actually want it to do is play, pause and stop really so that I can do those things without having to get up and go to the computer just to pause it etc.
Anyone know???
Thanks
Try Unified Remote matey, Got a Mousepad and Keyboard, but also loads of quick setting remotes that try different stuff like Media Centre, Shutdown, Volums, etc etc. I think there is one for itunes, VLC etc too.
Source? I use the pro version. Works with Bluetooth and Wifi.
http://www.unifiedremote.com/
Thanks that will probably work but does mean 2 different apps...
Would be nice if i could control the TV and play/pause the film I am outputting from the laptop via the HTC One remote app...
I will try the unified remote though, thanks again.
I suppose if the laptop has an IR Blaster mate, would be possible. As one setting in the In house remote app has microsoft. . . Ud prob need an ir blaster from a Windows Media Centre remote, Honestly though, try Unified. Its Brilliant!
Just installed it.. so easy.. already had a film playing and can now play/pause etc with my phone and HTC One TV remote is just one tap away.. outstanding... thank you very very much.. this is so good...
