Moto Phone Portal

http://home.leakdroid.com/2009/10/06/fresh-leak-moto-phone-portal-for-android-coming-w-sholestaodroid/
Pretty cool. Works with my G1 and Cyanogen 4.1.99. Try it out.

Recently some of the system dumps from the upcoming Motorola Sholes/Tao/Droid hit the Developer community, and they have been trying to piece the puzzle together of what the Motorola Sholes/Tao/Droid is all about. We got our hands on a new app which looks like it will be front and center when the device finally hits the shelves, Motorola Phone Portal.
Those that remember using the Motorola Phone Tools app to hack their Motorola’s back in the day (I’m getting all “Ahmad – Back in the Day” about my v600, v810, and RAZR) will instantly recognize this little gem, but it’s been updated for Android and provides some pretty cool functionality. Basically, Motorola Phone Tools (MPP) serves as an all-in-one phone manager that allows users to easily view, edit, create, delete, and play their contacts, ringtones, photos, wallpaper, and media. The key difference now is, the app is web-based and you log into your phone from directly from your browser! No installing “modems” and drivers on your Windows machine (painful), just fire up the app and press the “Connect with Wi-Fi button. When you press the button, the app prompts you to either turn on Wi-Fi, or connect over USB. For this experiment, I chose Wi-Fi.
MPP lets you add/edit/delete/browse your contacts, photos, bookmarks, browser history, and media in an easy-to-use interface. Playing media directly from the device in the browser worked very well, and the picture viewer/slideshow feature is pretty damn cool. So with MPP you’ll be able to play/show-off your media anywhere from any browser. If Moto adds a Social/Sharing aspect to this, they will have a winner on their hands.
So there you have it kids, a little taste of what’s to come with the Sholes/Tao/Droid. The original Moto Phone Tools was a pretty handy app (when it worked), and the new MPP looks to be just as functional, if not more so. I am sure it will help a lot of users manage their contacts/media/content when it gets released, and the ability to do slideshows and play media from your device directly from your browser is pretty slick. I hope Moto adds more features and functionality to it as time goes on, but this seems like a sign of good things to come. Grab the .apk file below and play away!

Doesn't work on my hero
It asks to activate wi-fi even if it is already active. Tried to start-stop wifi before and after i opened the application. any guess?
Thank you!!
Ok, I figured how to make it working, the phone must be connected to a network to be used, but I though it creates an ad-hoc wi-fi connection to work with.
BTW great app!

This thing is great. I wonder why more people aren't interested in this....

Sounds cool, I'm going to test this out later

pretty slick...
Nice that you can mange contacts and view the contents of your sdcard etc. Similar to AFile and others but a bit more "moto". Could be neat! I imagine that the majority of users would never set up a secure login though, could be fun to sit in a crowded bar and scan for active devices running this on port 8080. Imagine the havoc that could wreak!

I did set up a password. Though it looks like it still does not use https ! So not really secure either....

Some bizarre renderings on Firefox, but it's a simple and cool way to administer your phone from your computer.

USB doesn't work on my G1. Wifi does though. Wonder if its the Hero rom or the drivers causing the issue??

Stock MyTouch here. Wifi only as well.

any chance someone can re-upload this, seems its been deleted.

This is such a useful app!

Cool! Thanks for the download/headsup!

does this connect via USB or only wifi?
What does this do exactly? I have to connect to my wifi network and make sure the computer is connected and then what?
Is there a specific process to join the phone and the comp together?
I tried using a remote desktop client but didn't figure out how to get it working, is this the same?

Control android from computer

thanks

Its not like reverse vnc, its like, uh, vnc.
This website has all the stuff you need to get a vnc server running on your phone:
http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc/
Note: If you just run the fbvncserver, you can get a vnc server in VIEW ONLY mode. To get full interactive VNC, you need to run a kernel with their patch applied -- do not try to boot off their patched kernel, it is for emulator only. If you want to use their kernel patch, you must checkout the source code -- it comes with the patch file. Apply it to the applicable kernel source and boot off that.

I was looking for the same thing for my EVO. I found an app in the Market called "droid VNC Server" by Jose Pereira that allows you to remotely control your Android phone from a PC wirelessly. I tried it over WiFi and it worked flawlessly for me!
Here's a link to it on Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.onaips.vnc&feature=search_result
(Edit: Sorry, didn't realize this thread was from 2009 until after I hit submit. It was the top Google result for my search for a solution.)

thanks for the info..
it really helps...
some moderator like to lock old thread...if we reply to it..
but it actually helps sometimes..

I thank you, even though it was an old thread... I was looking for something similar so I can type in my accounts through my pc using my keyboard. This works like a charm. Good find.

Thanks, one more ?

Yeah, i second this too! I just tried a couple of popular ones like Remote Web Desktop by SmartDog and LazyDroid and none of those two worked. Only webkey worked perfectly!

I concur

ressurection
Anyway to do this or something like this without any internet what so ever? I have no internet and would like to connect phone via USB. Then see screen on computer be able to use Mouse for touch and keyboard to type. Is it possible? Everything I see fails to mention you need to connect to internet to use it either by having DSL cable or tethering for you WiFi data. No internet options for me.

Remote into phone

There is an app on iphone app that allows you to to remote into the iphone from your computer and use it remotely (ie. like logmein, remote desktop, pc anywhere, etc.). Is there any sort of app like that for Android phones?

Working on this right now. There is one that lets you do it over wifi (swiFTP). I have dyndns setup on my phone with a website redirect to it. I just need to get an ftp server that can actually detect that and all should be good. Once I get it working I will start a thread with step by step directions. It took me a little bit of time to get dyndns working right on my phone. I'lll post a link here when I get it all figured out.

Cool. You are referencing FTP though. Are you saying you're developing an app for full remote access / control of the phone? Or just a way to transfer files to the phone via Wifi / cell network?

I tried writing an app a while back, but got so confused I decided not to even try. I want to be able to control my phone, but also access its files over the internet so that where ever I am I can access my phone. My first goal is accessing files and the remote part is just something I thought was cool. Everything that I have tried with remote control access runs real slow so I am trying to tweak with the kernel to see if it helps.

[Q] Android remote control

Is it possible that doesn't exist a software for windows to control an Android device from desktop PC?? Android Screen Cast seems to be the one that works a bit, but not for every ROM (I have a Samsung I9000 with ICS ROM).
Also with Windows Mobile I was able to control my phone from my PC...Android seems to be far away for this purpose
I also tried other software, such as PicMe and others, but nothing...

Have you tried Airdroid?
Or is that not the type of app you were talking about?

I'm looking for a software that shows me the display of the phone. So I can control every thing from PC and not only some features.

Airdroid does just that

But it works only by wifi....I haven't wifi on my desktop pc in office...
edit: ok I logged in by usb teathering...I wil try this app...

Nothing, as I supposed it's not the app for me. It lets you to interact only with some features.

Pocket cloud and pocket cloud explorer both work over data connection too, although if the signal isn't good it may be a bit laggy

Iv been searching for the same thing for a long time now and couldnt find anything..I just stick to airdroid...think itsa the closest you going to get because at least u can view the screen and control some things...

Try this... It's a teamviewer Quicksupport app and it's free, might be just what you're looking for.
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.quicksupport.market.samsung

But why do you need this? can't you just take your phone out of your pocket to check it?

But Teamviewer only works controlling a pc with thr phone. I thibk he mean control the phone with the computer
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

what your looking for is webkey.you can control you phone and see everything on the screen live from a pc or another android phone.And if you know what you are doing you can change icon and name of the apk and then install it as a system app to start when the phone turns on and runs throw 3g or WiFi.

[Q] Something like LG On-screen phone for Xperias?

Is there some software that mimics the LGOP and works with Sony phones? That program and its functionalities is one of the things I miss having on Xperia.

What? Bootanimation porting? What are you talking about?
I ask for a program that allows control of the phone from PC desktop and displays the contents of the display on my PC monitor.
