I had my phone in my pocket when i ran into a counter and cracked my screen and now it looks like a acid trip. I once saw a program that allowed you to control your phone from your pc via usb cable. Any suggestions. Sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread but i am looking for software. Thanks for any input.
Remote Control Software
My Moblier, found at http://www.mymobiler.com/, should do the trick. It lets you view your screen output on your desktop moniter and uses your keyboard and mouse. It's also free and I've heard great things about it. Select the PC install on the website, download it, and run the program. It should work through active sync.

I was just wondering if this is possible..
My situtation/setup:
I currently have my kaiser connected to my laptop via active sync and everything is working well.
Is it possible to control the kaiser's desktop from my laptop? I would like the kaiser's desktop running in the background on my laptop computer exactly like the remote desktop connection application that comes with win XP...
you mean you want to remote your device from your computer or the other way around?
The first one..
I'd like to remote my device from my computer...
Is this possible?
Indeed it is.
Soti.net Pocket Controller Pro works great.

if you go to the kaiser general forum (which you posted this thread in) and click "Search this Forum" then put in the simple word remote, you will get a pretty recent thread that discusses this. I beleive the thread was started 2 weeks ago, so it's rather easy to find.

Was that gental enough mods?
ah Park City, you are too fast for me.
darn... $35.95...
Anything cheaper? free? probably a long shot...
Thanks for the suggestion though, I will have to purchase it if there aren't any freeware out there!
I did search...
I just didn't hit the keywords for that thread...

Google "MyMobiler". Basic, but works, and free.
ok... so i guess my other option is mymobiler...
thanks for replying guys!
Have you tried ActiveSync Remote Desktop? It's part of Miscrosoft's PowerToys for Windows Mobile.

I am not able to get activesync remote desktop working via bluetooth. Does it work for you?
via bluetooth? I haven't given that a try since I don't have a bluetooth device...
I just bought a Touch Diamond -very nice phone with a couple exceptions.
Touchflo 3d is nice but Im finding it doesnt have much depth - it needs more functions. And the loudspeaker is not very good - not loud, not clear.
Anyways, its my first windows mobile phone and had a couple questions about what WM6.1 can do. Im using Vista btw.
1. Email - Im downloading ALL my email and its fairly big. Can I force it to save only to internal storage?
2. Music - How do you get the album photo to come up while playing through Touchflo music - the picture does come up if i just play in windows media player.
3. Is it possible to add/remove multiple contacts from the People Menu ie Favourite contact
4. Most important - connectivity. Is it possible to access the phone wirelessly from PC via router? The phone connects to the router wirelessly fine and I can use the internet. But what I want to be able to do is either access the internal storage or sync up with outlook without using the usb cable.
5. What kind of BASIC phone functions does it have?
Eg. Call timer during call
Stop it going to that call history page after a call - i want it to go straight back to home.
Theres more functions it seems to be missing....
6. How do you make it so it FULLY shuts down a program when u hit the top right close button? I dont want to have to keep re-hitting the top right button to open task manager and full close it that way.
7. Lastly, is there any secret tips that a newbie wouldnt know about eg. codes to get to secret menus etc?
1. I don't think so, but I don't download email, so somebody who does may be able to help.
2. Strange problem, probably to do with the version of ID3 tags each uses. But again I have no idea how to solve it
3. No idea with no device in hand
4. Microsoft, being twats, reoved sync via Wi-Fi with the upgrade to WM2003. So, sorry mate, no way that I know
5. My dialer on my other PPC has call timer I think, but the diamond's may not, a new dialer with it included may solve the problem.
Other stuff missing?
6. Get a proper x button, like WKTask, or Wisbar, or something similar. Its also probably possible to change the settings to make it close by tapping X. I also think that with the HTC program, you can close by tap and hold, or, from today, click where the x should be, and a menu comes up enabling you to close them individually.
7. Secret codes? Not that I know of.
Hope the small things I have known here do help

Yeah, 6 is definitely something that can be done in the standard Windows Mobile settings (unless they've removed the setting in 6.1, in which case a registry edit might do it).
I guess when the phone has been out for a while, a lot of registry tweaks and utils will show up around here to adress all kinds of small and big issues.
i was gona go for a diamond but look at htc touch pro. everything diamond plus hardware keyboard and memory expansion slot (minus front camera).
Found how to fully close the progam in one go - went to task manager - button - and chose "End Programs by tapping X"
Under this option is "End programs by tapping and holding X" which is the default.
I tried it and it does work but I dont like it. Coz u cant really tell how long to hold it. If u keep holding, the program actually just stays open until u release. And I guess if u release too early it wont fully close.
Anyways - thats not a huge issue - wireless sync is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone found a way to get around it?
Best you can do with WIFI is put the UNC name of your pc into the browser and bring up the shares.
If you want to sync wirelessly, you'll have to do it via bluetooth. You should be able to get a bluetooth dongle for your pc for about 20 bucks though.
OH YEAH!!!!!!!! Going through Opera to browse my PC directory - You little beauty!!!
Now, how do I set up a name for the diamond so I can see it on my PC. Is there a setting you have to enable? I browse for "PCs" and it doesnt find the diamond - just my other PCs
I'm not sure if that's possible though.
Once you have your PDA connected with ActiveSync, some sort of Windows software that shows exactly what is being shown on your PDA.
Thanks
http://www.mymobiler.com/
You could try that.
Thanks a lot! It's exactly what I need.
see your mobile screen on computer screen
activesync remote display is what I use. It is part of the Microsoft mobile power toys, free download from Microsoft. Installs on both the phone and computer and you can run apps on your phone from your computer desktop as well as capture the image of your phone, etc...

Technically Pocket Controller is licensed per PDA/phone. So if you have 2 devices you need 2 licenses (in order to be legal)
my mobiler on the other hand is free...
i just tried mymobiler - it's brilliant. can control your mobile from your PC, can create videos of the mobile in operation. excellent app
Or... you could just try searching. You would have received the same results, or more, and not found it necessary to create yey another duplicate thread.

I already tried that. I wouldn't have asked if I wouldn't have tried that before.
Thanks for that useful hint.

Right, I had an HTC artemis before my HTC Diamond, and I went out and baught one of
those nifty little W100 remotes. As you'll all know by now (or at least you should do) that
they only work for windows media player, and are not mappable. I want to change this!
Now, i've had a look around the file system, and in the registry, and I've found some things
that i'm curious about...
h2w_accessory.dll seems to be referenced as an active device/driver, and this seems to
be the only thing that could be remotely related to the remote. There has to be some kind
it "middle man" to open WMP and pass it the commands, and I want to gain access into it,
to break it open and generate button press events...
I have tried to access all of the serial ports by writing a small program, to see if the remote
communicated via a simple serial interface, but this yeilded no results. I have listened for
button events system wide, also via a simple program I made, but this also yeilded nothing
useful.
Does anyone know anything more about the inner workings of this remote control's drivers,
and would like to try and help make a solution, hopefully for ALL HTC devices.
I hope we can all finally get our heads down and crack open this remote for the good of
the community, and finally show HTC how to make a remote control useful for more of the
Windows Mobile population...
I've been trying to find some software that will let me remote onto my phone (in the same way that Mymobiler does - over USB). But i can't seem to find anything!
All my search results come up with how to remote desktop FROM your phone, but I want to to it the other way round!
Does any software even exist?
Would installing ActiveSync 3.8 work with mymobiler (seeing as it should let me sync over WiFi?)
Thanks!

Works both ways, i.e access PC from the mobile (well done and convenient) or the opposite, over any network you want.
Pocket Controller
Cool, thanks guys
Pocket Controller does the job nicely - with lots of extra functionality to boot
This is what I use. And it's free to boot.
