For those of you who haven't fallen of your chair reading the title ....
What I'm trying to do is use LogMeIn on an Android phone, have tried the native browser, Opera and Steel, all let me log into the the remote PC but on connection a blank screen is displayed. I have read that you can switch to html to view but I havent got this to work. Having used LMI with html from a PC, I found it very slow, so I would prefer to avoid this route. What does PIE have that Android browsers are missing? Is it ActiveX or Java?
I ask just so that I keep an eye out for a suitable android browser when released. Apparently LMI are working on an app for the iphone and possibly Android but an interim solution would be great.
Cheers
I was wondering the same thing. I use remotely anywhere and it has a nice activeX control which is way faster than Java or html.

1) Can someone produce some Javascript which adds xda-developer's search engine to Firefox's pull down list of search engines.

2) Is there any proxy server software for PocketPC...It'd be great to be able to view barred websites on my work PC and impress my work mates...NO! I don't mean Porno :lol: and no I cannot use my phone as a GPRS modem because of the severe user profile restrictions my work are running in Windows XP.
Thanks...By the way, the phone is a Universal.
Search plugin
Here's a firefox search plugin I knocked up. I don't really use firefox so no use to me!
Note: due to the fact that xda forums uses "post" instead of "get" form submission, and firefox search plugins don't currently support "post" it defaults to only returning results in "post" form, not "topic", PITA and not my limitation, but the browser's. There may be a way around it, but it's also a PITA
Unzip the attached files and drop into your firefox \searchplugins\ subfolder.

You're a legend vijay...Nice one :mrgreen:
Now can anyone help with the proxy server software.....I would like to get a proxy server running off my Universal.
Using the Tilt's Internet Explorer, I can not access a particular website. The problem is that the developer of the website has a script to detect the browser and if it is not IE 6+ or above, you only get an error stating that you need to use IE and not Opera, Firefox, etc... But the Tilt is running IE, correct?
Anyway, is there a better version of IE that can be used on the Tilt? I have Opera installed and use that mainly but as I said, the site blocks Opera as well.
Help?

Send a nasty email to the developer telling him he's a f*cking idiot and it's people like him that break the internet.
Try PIEPlus by Reensoft,
It Adds Many Much Needed Improvements To PIE.
It Also Allows You To Change The User-Agent That The Browser Reports To The Server. (Essentialy Identifying Itself As IE6 For Example)

I second that on PIEPlus. It is a must have if you plan on using PIE.
PIE Plus is pretty cool! I like it.
Unfortunately, it dosent seem to fix the problem. I changed the User Agent to:
Mozilla/4.0
compatible
MSIE 7.0
Windows NT 6.0
PPC; 240x320
Did I miss something or do I need to keep on digging for a solutions?
The Picsel browser also allows you to define the User Agent string to IE6 etc.
It is a nice browser, but not as nice as OperaMini IMHO, but it will also view *.pdf *.doc files and text and images. There are cabs for it floating around here somewhere.
Thanks everyone. I found a browser.
Picsel (wizzzard!!!) works great! WOW, super fast also with easy to use navigation.
Thanks everyone!
this may sounds dumb, what does the P stand for in PIE? PDA?

The P Stands For Pocket.
Sorry To Hear That PIEPlus Does Not Solve Your Issue.
Might Have To Take A Lookie At Picsel.
Try Jataayu browser, Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335625
OK, tried Jataayu as well. Pretty nice. Tried it for about 2 minutes and every page that has a login screen, after entering my user/pass it wont let me click the "Login" button. Tried it on 3 different web pages and the same result each time.
Still looking for an alternative though.
I am almost done with the Tilt. I am giving it 1 more week and then it is going back to ATT.
Hey, I'm looking for the best remote control software to use on the kaiser. (to control your desktop pc from ppc)
Any suggestions?
I use https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp
It works a treat and it's free.
Yes, another vote for LogMeIn Free.
Also check out http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Access your desktop PC from your Pocket PC! for more info, it explains everything
And yess, another one goes fo rlogmein...
great solution !!
my only problem with logmein is when I log in with PIE sometimes i have to enter my user name and PW about 40-50 times until it logs me in. it keeps throwing me back to the login screen without any message why. i posted a logmein tech support and no response. I tried this on different browsers (PIE/opera/webfront) and got the same results.
other than that, logmein is great.
real vnc enteprise, and realvnc mobile.
connect to REMOTELY with wifi, I use this for everything (IM, Downloads, Etc)
takes little experience to set up, pretty straight forward

If you REALLY want to go the VNC way, use PT Pocket Office instead. It uses way lessbandwidth and is way better.

Smoothness is a function of network latency and throughput MUCH more than it has anything to do with the software. android-vnc-viewer is the best remote desktop control software for the simple reason that it doesn't depend on any proprietary CRAP. VNC is wide open for all to use. Avoid RDP at all costs -- any use of it helps to enable MS to continue developing incompatibilities wrt everything good.
when i tried to use vnc viewer i kept getting the connection was refused, whitch vnc program do you have on your phone, im using phone my pc right now and it comes with a desktop software. cant get vnc viewer to work.
anyone know how to set up vnc viewer
get "android-vnc-viewer" from the market. Install the free version of Real VNC. When Real VNC is setup move your mouse over the icon in the task-tray thing (haven't used windows in ages I forget what it's called) and type the IP address in to android-vnc-viewer.
For OS X the app claims to support OS X's built in desktop sharing, and I can confirm that it works with the built in desktop sharing in ubuntu.
Remote Desktop is by far the best option: http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.xtralogic.android.rdpclient
but i have xp home, so i dont have a RDP sharing client.
Hi,
I need a software which will help me project Nexus One Screen onto my PC. I used a Java based software Droid(at)Screen for G1. It is not working for nexus One.
Can anyone help plz.
Thanks in Advance
If you have root, then search for droid VNC server on the market.
even without root, it might work for viewing purposes (i.e you likely won't be able to type or click).
Works well with most VNC client / viewer applications - in fact, you could view it through a http link in your browser without a VNC client if java is installed / working ok on your machine.
Thanks Sd00 for the response. Actually, I am new to these devices, so couldnt understand what you had mentioned. (actually its too much of hightech for me). Can you please let me know what I need to install on the phone or check?
Thanks
Install droid vnc server app from the market, run the app, press start button on the app, read the http it shows you on the screen & type it in to the address bar of your internet browse, waa laa.
