PhoneMyPC works for me. I can view live and interact live. Haven't tried anything else. When I remoted in I noticed that the NC keyboard didn't pop up automatically. I use Button Savior to access the PhoneMyPC menu and was able to select the keyboard that way.

Its not that it sucked, I guess... just didn't have the functionality I wanted.
TeamViewer
Just tried the Android app, which youll have to get from the website an sideload, but a quick run though of the app went smooth an seemed just as good as the PC version.
Logmein works well as a remote desktop tool.
I'd recommend TeamViewer b/c with it you can connect to any computer running it. Very helpful for tech support.
Link is here: http://www.teamviewer.com/download/TeamViewer.apk
phonemypc wont work when lappy is connected to projector..
moving on to LogMeIn, and if that fails... Teamviewer.
thanks for the info buds
I use remotedroid on my phone ... have not tried it yet on the nook but that may be an option.

I also use RemoteDroid and it's so much better on the NC rather than my Droid. The larger screen just makes it so much easier to navigate accurately.
Logmein ran slow. So I installed teamviewer and its sweeeet.
May try remotedroid, but tviewr is doing great currently
// from the nook
Open vnc. It works with my evo so i assume it will work with nook.

Another vote for Teamviewer, pretty sweet.
If you have the ability to set up a vnc client on the target PC, I would recommend openvnc, if not than use teamviewer.
alright, so i installed and got the vnc stuff running, but i cant get any remote input working
im using tightvnc and android-vnc-viewer, and the only input it lets me use is trackball, which the nook obviously lacks. the other input options are greyed out so i cant select anything else.
bug with PhoneMyPC
Be careful with PhoneMyPC PC software.
Software: PhoneMyPC PC software 32bit version 2.0.2.2
OS: Window 7 Ult w/ SP1
I was looking for a remote desktop app that can pass through NAT network, when I have no rights to configure port mapping.
Just tried PhoneMyPC and uninstalled the PC software. I found that I cannot connect to L2TP VPN on my desktop anymore! error code 789. After system restore I managed to roll back and able to connect to that L2TP VPN again.
I tried it on two desktops, same problem.
I am going to try TeamViewer or Logmein.
I'll throw out another option - Unified Remote -it works really well...very fast and a lot of pre-configured controls for common applications. I love it.
Make sure you get the latest version RC2 as it's way better than the market one.

Splashtop works good but that's more of a remote option,

I use Unified Remote. It does require you install the software on your pc but it works great. It also has built-in remotes for VLC, Powerpoint and many other programs.

Hi, I have tried to install teamviewer (version 6.0.170) to my LG optimus 2X. When I launch it on my phone, it just gives me a black screen and I have to force close it. it used to work well on my old motorola milestone.
May I know which version of teamviewer do you use? Can you send me the apk?
Thank you very much.
Hi,
I use 2x client, with very good results.
Best Remote desktop tool!
Hey There,
Im working a Lot with Remote desktop programs!
Just because.. Its possible!! And there're getting better and faster!
Ive bought, PhoneMyPc a half year ago, which has I think the best way of navigating through your Pc.
Im using SplashTop which is the best for viewing streaming media (Video&Audio) on my phone. Which working unbelievable good!
Also using that one on my Asus Epad!
Its the fastest remote desktop tool I used!
Sometimes I use LogMein because that program really shows everything what is happening on your desktop screen. When your starting up a game.. Not intent to do that, PhonemyPc and Splashtop are giving a black screen, while logmein, is showing you the game. It slow, but it works.
Also Logmein is working almost Everywhere!! Through every proxy etc! While PhonemyPc and Spashtop having some trouble when your in a business environment or heavvy protected area.
We just have splashtop some more time! I think.
Thats why, when Ive to chose one. I'll go for Splashtop!
Greetzz..

Was browsing the Evo 4G boards and ran across an .apk for the Netflix app on that just released recently. You cant install from the marketplace link, because this app wasnt "technically made for the HD2". But the program works and runs great for me when installing from the .apk listed on that forum.
I'm running Android: Ladyboo MIUI by the way. Test it out. thanks

I saw on the market feed back section that someone with a HD2 has it and is running fine. But I have a HD2 and I am not able to download it now is it on the list. How do you think he was able to get it?

I think it may have to do with whatever core build you are using. The NexusHD2 build for example will more than likely get it but Typhoon CM7 does not. But I was able to install locally and it works now for me.
Will this work for a HD2 Desire Z Nand Zip Rom?

I can't see it in the market through my phone either. You guys tried that patch or download it straight from the market online via pc?

Yes sir, installed and started up just fine.
Nice, I will load it when I get to my pc. Unless theres a way to do it to the root file from my phone.
Yeah just come here with your phone browser (or the XDA app) and download right to your phone, any file manager will install it once you have it on your sdcard

Anyone have any idea what could cause this and possibly how to fix? I just tried reinstalling and power cycling the phone. I also tried to disable mobile network and use WiFi. No luck. When it starts to play the video I see the pause button and the time bar then they disappear and it goes back to the netflix home screen.

Same here
How do I install that package? Would I go to the bootloader menu and open the zip file from there and then launch my rom?
HTC HD2, MIUI stock build. Works *just* fine! Thanks a LOT!
Hey, I don't know if any of you use airdroid to sync files via wifi, but I downloaded it because wifi file transfer quit working for me. However, this doesnt work either. My browser will say can't to server (have tried multiple browsers). I emailed support, but was wondering if any of you had some insight?
Adfree or adaway wouldn't effect this would they?
Thanks
AirDroid worked fine for me using the default port (and Chrome) . It's possible (and, I think, likely) that your router settings are blocking it in some way. Check those settings or change the port AirDroid uses.
Silly Question: Phone is connected to same wifi network and not using data connection, right?
I've also used File Expert's FTP share to transfer files a good bit. It works well and has an FTP client built-in so you can share between phones too.

I've been using samba filesharing without any issues from stock through revolt and now ginger 1.3. Definitely give it a shot.

umm, something your router isn't blocking? :?
Another dumb question: When entering the URL, you're putting :888 at the end of it, right?
ok as the title suggests.... anyone of you know of any apps similar to AirDroid? Ive tried using it and 8 out of 10 times i cannot seem to log in to the webclient to connect my phone....
Please note, im not looking for solutions to this problem here.... just alternative apps that does the same thing more or less....
thanks in advance
There's a app called browsix that I've used before, it doesn't have the nice interface AirDroid does but its has half the features of it. You can find it on the market.
Just thought I'd suggest it.
Tried that one but still can't get it to work properly maybe its something to do with my Wi-Fi.... using Wi-Fi file explorer for now tho..... seems to be ok
search button..... just do it.....
try file expert. it has a feature like tht.
bt nt as good as airdroid
Was abt to download that and give it a shot then I read further into the reviews and although it got good ratings, there were reports of spam and huge battery drain.... sigh... airdroid is still the best so far but for the life of me I can't figure out what's wrong with me connecting to the website.... seriously anyone else using airdroid?
search button..... just do it.....
so u r trying to http://web.airdroid.com/ or locally?
ur firewall might block the port
for me, both local and website works fine
The website link is useless for me, the only times I got on it were on the 192.11 etc even that is not stable for me firewall is ok as using other almost similar apps manage to log me on easily
search button..... just do it.....
You might wanna try ES Explorer, since the last updates, it got the SD card sharing function, and with that became the best file manager for me.
i am using es, but does it let you control your phone and its contents from your computer?
Is it possible to transfer data with an FTP server like airdroid or something?
Or can I just access my phones data?

Try websharing app, it has good user interface
With lite version you can upload single file at a time, with full version you can upload bulk files, folder etc. Full version have some nice features.
With airdroid I also have sometimes auto disconnect problem

It does. Check the Remote Manage box in Settings > Remote Settings.
It has been 6 months I dont know if you found anything but I can reccomend a great app just like AirDroid.
It's called SnapPea and its truly awesome. Been using it for some time now and its really great.
Webkey
Not sure if this one has been mentioned but Webkey is astonishingly powerful. Needs root but can connect through various networks; I use it when airdroid won't work. The PC side is just a webpage. Address is http://webkey.cc and you get the app from the Market.
I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted to share something I discovered.
Not sure if it has changed yet, but I was using Opera web browser a couple of months ago, and AirDroid does not work with that browser...just an FYI
Cool!
Airdroid 2.0 is awesome!
But the below two are very good as well!
