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.

Hey guys, didn't know if anyone has seen this yet but Winamp just released an app that's pretty nice. It even has a Lock Screen app and Wi-fi syncing to your pc. I think it is still considered beta but it seems pretty polished so far.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/winamp/com.nullsoft.winamp
Here's a blog with some good info and screenshots too:
Here
I installed it and works great except the wifi sync. I cannot get the Desktop Winamp beta to discover it. I am using the Winamp 5.59 beta which is required. But under devices, I click "Start Discovery" and absolutely nothing happens. Like it is not even trying to discover. And I do have WiFi sync enabled in the phone. Allshare works to connect to my PC so I know the connection can work.
Anyone else tried this with Captivate? Does it work for you? Any tips to make the Wifi sync work?
I got wifi sync to work but it has some serious issues regarding duplicating songs, etc

haven't tried the wifi sync but this music app is the shiz!! was using Doubletwist before..not anymore!
love the interface. able to create playlists with ease and the notification bar-like pulldown screen is genius
I can't see my music by Artist/Song with Winamp, but i can with Search option.. I've synced with Windows Media Player..

I would be happy just getting it to connect USB or WiFi but no go. Did you do anything special to get the connection to work?
For those with WiFi issues, are you sure you have the proper ports open in your firewall? (Just a guess, but that's typically the reason people have trouble connecting to their PC's on networked devices)
The app is quite nice so far, I like the lock screen widget and the launcher widget is nice as well, it has a good look to it and the style almost fits in perfectly with the Launcher Pro widgets.
So far, so good!
Copy to SD card
Anyone figured out how to set the Winamp default to copy music to the SD card? Right now it just dumps the files into the root directory. I checked the Winamp forums and some seemed to suggest there was a way to do this in the Winamp settings. I tried, but couldn't find the option the fix mentioned. I'm wondering if the whole sdcard/sd set up Samsung did on the Captivate will cause problems with Winamp finding the actual sd card?

I can't even connect via USB. I started a thread at WinAmp Forums. Many people with same issue:

Post there if you are having issues so the developers can see it.
One annoyance for me is the auto mounting feature present(mistakenly blamed dg's latest Cognition ROM because of it). I suppose it's a nice feature if one mainly sync music most of the time.

You can turn this feature off in the options (in fact if you look at the settings in Winamp, it's the first option)
I just want to be able to make a play-list on my computer then transfer all the songs PLUS the play-list to my phone. Is there any way to do this?

Knew that lol(did it after finding it was on), but thanks for the advice though.
that winamp app is pretty sweet, I like it.
I've already tried both PicMe and ShootMe and have been unable to get either to work on my rooted MyTouch 3G (HTC Magic) running CyanogenMod 5. (Both start up just fine, but with PicMe, the IP address provided refuses to connect in my desktop browser, and with ShootMe I just can't get it to take a photo.)
Any other apps out there that you'd recommend? I'm willing to pay (within reason) for an app that works.
DroCap2, works great on my phone.
try screenshot i use that app and working great on my phone
Can you use DDMS from the AndroidSDK?
It works really well.
Thanks for the suggestions; I'll try all of them and see which one works for me.
Is'nt there an app called Screenshot? i mean i used it before.

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..

I use citrix to access a online program on a pc and have tried it on an ipad, but can't get it to work under android. I usually download the ica file from here -crlaurence.com/shower/showerapp.ica- I can open it but citrix just closes.
I would like to start using my table instead of a laptop. Any help would be appreciated.
It sounds like citrix isnt playing nice. Do you get any errors? Can you post a log of what happens? Is the citrix server set up to connect to android?

I think that it might not be set up for android. No error just says please wait, then it goes away.

it will be implemented in the next version of Null.
He has it working (pdanet) go read on it in the last couple of pages, up to the sticky versions....
I did get the foxfi bluetooth tether to work, you have to install the tablet app on the gear (I did have to change the font scalling for the app to see everything to get it connected)....It works for the browser and amazon app store but for some reason when you try to download apps it says there is not internet access. The download manager also.says no internet access.....but the browser works great including youtube in browser.

Im not sure why some apps can use the connection and some can't....
Indeed, it would have to be with the way bluetooth tethering routes the data connection.
Try my guide. I got it working on Verizon without native phone tethering and I can use the google play store/Netflix
