Anyone seen an app like this for the Android? I would love to be able to control my laptop whenever I hook it up to the HDTV.

Haven't seen one for Android, but I've used a purpose built airmouse before for presentations.....it worked surprisingly well!
Something like this for Android would be excellent....also lots of fun to screw with your co-workers....almost as much fun as the Annoy-o-tron.
Well... there is an app that I have used called RemoteDroid. You need to have a small java app running in the background of the pc that you want to control but it basically turns your phone into a touchpad mouse. You can also check out Android Joystick which is basically the same concept except you tilt the phone the direction that you want to move. Kinda beta-ish and possibly abandonded but it's worth a look. I'm sure that there are more out there though. I did a search on Market for the word "Remote" and came up with a several varity of possible apps that may work for you. However as far as I can tell... there is no "Mobile Air Mouse" specific to the Android phones as of yet. It looks pretty interesting though.
GMote works for me.

Gmote looks like it doesnt even have keyboard or trackpad support. It seems to be just a media browser.

Is that the Gmote you are referring to?

Thanks, RemoteDroid works great
GMote has both trackball and keyboard support, plus streaming. One. Great app!

hmmm, i just checked the website again and I see it listed under the FAQ. Seems like that would be a feature they would want on the front page and in the screenshots...lol
If you just need trackball and keyboard support, RemoteDroid does it. Plus, RemoteDroid doesnt need to be installed on your computer just a 74.1 KB zip file with a java file needs to be run. Gmote requires you to download a 23 MB install file.
Gmote does have a larger install...but I can use my phone to control the computer, with Keyboard/trackpad/ball, and make my computer start playing music/vids, Open a web site I was reading on the phone, and play my music directly from the PC on my phone...so...yeah it's bigger...but it's also better, at least for me =). Also, running windows 7 here, remotedroid lags a LOT for me.
Thanks for the info.
I ended up having to install Gmote on my MacBook Pro. RemoteDroid wouldnt work for some reason on my Mac but Gmote works just fine. RemoteDroid works fine on WinXP though.
Question about Gmote: Is there a way to show mouse buttons on the touchpad?
Unfortunatly that is the one thing that I have been waiting for. Currently I can't click and drag due to the lacking button/multitouch.
But it still rocks =D
This is what you want
Android air mouse.
www dot mobilongtech dot com
I am not allowed to post external link. sorry for that.
gremote pro by GBM software works flawlessly.
premotedroid works successfully too.
Does anybody know any application that emulate mouse via accelerometer like Logitech MX Air Mouse?
Bluewave air mouse is nice. However, currently no accelerometer based app exists that I know of. The air mouse app on the iPhone doesn't really work flawlessly, I like trackpad apps much better. However: accelerometer + get it working as a bluetooth mouse = heaven.

I have found the app that do this - MultiRemote.
In settings you can turn on wiiMode and after that move the mouse via phone position.
In top-bottom it works good, but for moving left-right I need to change the angle of phone (to left or right), but better will be to detect direction via compass or something else.
Or another method - detect not angle, but moving the device (top, bottom, left, right) - is it possible?
Does accelerometer detect only angle changing? Or it can detect device moving (accelerating and stopping)?
How does the program like Shwartz detects phone moving?
I use phone my pc. It has keyboard/mouse function. Control live/remote desktop style, control specific processes and such, and many more options.
The Best, hands down

RemoteDroid sucks, with Gmote you have to keep CMD running. The best by far is PhoneMyPc, it's around 10$, but you could get it free. Here's how, you'll need the aforum app, once in go to shared topics. The post is 3 months old so scroll a bit, the topic is (I'm hosting this site, plenty of apps for android etc.) There's a link that will take you where you need to go. The benefits of this app are, you can control as many computers as you want from anywhere in the world and can be used as a mouse, or you can interact live with your PC, keyboard from it and everything, works fine on 3G and even better with wifi, it's a beautiful thing, trust me. When I'm doing something on the computer and I have to fly, I can finish up from my phone on my PC. Some shots so you can see a bit.
Okay folks, so what's the last word on this one? Is there, or is there no Android app that does what www.mobilemouse.com does on iPhone? I am specifically interested in the "air mouse" bit, which means accelerometer-based cursor movement, no trackpad or other garbage. Does GRemote do that? Anyone tried it?
P.S. Ideally, the app should turn the Android phone into a Bluetooth HID air mouse, so that no SW has to be installed on the PC.

A nicer way to do it would be good, but to click and drag: click and hold the trackball and drag on the touchpad.
This software lets you use the keyboard on your Fuze/Touch Pro as a wireless keyboard and the touchscreen as a Touch Pad Mouse like the kind on a laptop. Unfortunately this software is not free but they do have a trial version that you can try and the only limitation is it forces you to reconnect after every 30 clicks. This program can use either WIFI or Bluetooth to connect to your computer and pretty much lets you do anything from controlling Vista Media Center and Winamp to controlling your computer as long as you can write a script.
The software is called Salling Clicker
http://www.salling.com/
The program uses scripts that people create and post on the forum. I wrote this script a long time ago for my HTC Hermes to control my computer.
I don't know anything about programming or coding but I managed to write this script in about one night after reading a few basic tutorials and help from the forum members on Salling's forum. Since I put this together without any real knowledge this script is really basic but get the job done. If anyone wants to improve the script your welcome too, perhap you can smooth out the mouse movement and sensitivity even more.
Installation Instructions
1. Download and install the software on your PC
2. Pair up your phone with the computer by Bluetooth or use Wifi
3. Choose the correct phone from the drop down menu ( Touch Pro in this case) and it will begin to install the client software to your Phone.
4. Download my script and unrar into My Clicker Scripts located in My Documents
5. Open up the host software on your PC and drag the script called "HTC Universal Keyboard and Mouse" from the right box into the left box labeled "Items available on your handheld device".
6. Start up the program on your Fuze and establish a connection and choose the "HTC Universal Keyboard and Mouse" script to run
7.??????
8. Profit!
Thanks alot, i will definitely give this a try

Not that i use it alot, but yea gremote is great. Using your phone for a steering wheel for racing games works great. Or if you got a decent set of speakers, you can change the songtrack or volume from the backyard while your planting your two-lips.

Same here. I tried a Logitech wireless keyboard with touchpad that's specifically made to use with a PS3. The zoom feature was aweful when using the web browser, so I returned it.
There's a way to format the PS3's hard drive to either boot up like a normal PS3 or boot up like a Linux computer. I'm gonna check the PS3 forums to see if there's any info posted about using a WinMo device.

I don't know if there have been any threads asking about this, but I figured I would share my success story to clear up any confusion or for anyone that was wondering. I just received my Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000, and I had zero problems pairing it up with my Streak that is on the Dell 2.2 Stock firmware (mine is rooted but this makes no difference in terms of the mouse working).
As soon as the mouse is successfully connected, a little cursor appears in the middle of the screen. So far, it looks like it works in just about any app. I've tried the browser, messaging, and even angry birds, and the cursor is on the screen 100% of the time. It even works on the lock screen, and can be used to unlock the phone just like a finger can. The scroll wheel also works for scrolling through menus and such, and in the browser, haven't really tested that extensively.
The scroll wheel button, and the right click do not seem to have any function, as well as the extra button that this mouse has on the left side.
It's working flawlessly so far! I'm thoroughly pleased that Dell Implemented the HID profile into the Streak, and a mouse cursor so that we can have this kind of functionality . If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask and I will answer the best I can (if anyone wants me to test this with a particular app, for example).
Way cool.
I have a BT Microsoft mouse at home I'll have to give it a try tonight.
Thanks for the heads up.
Sure thing .
I have yet to find an application that will allow me to map functions to the extra mouse buttons. If anyone has any ideas, please share.
I tried mine "Logitech" it working with scroll wheel.
BR
The mouse can operate simultaneously with the apple bluetooth keyboard (the used)
Tried with a MS IntelliMouse Explorer MDL: 1001 on streakdroid 1.9....no luck.
Does it allow you to copy and paste with the mouse?
I have gotten the Microsoft Presenter Mouse 8000 to work with my streak.
And as for selecting text, you can use it, but not how I expected to.
No click and drag but I can position the cursor with a mouse click then when I try to click and drag (e.g. select text) the "Edit text" pop appears and you can select "select text" (NOTE: the scroll wheel worked here). Then you and use the mouse to point and click where you want the select text to end.
Very cool.
Yeah great....but until we can connect to a monitor what's the point. Sorry to sound so negative but I think dell have been very short sighted.
If I could dock to a monitor then I would be a very happy man. If apple can do it.....
Android should have been first

well... my dell streak dock has 720p out - that should work for a monitor .
Unless you tell me otherwise (and I hope you do) it only outputs video and audio. Not the entire streak desktop.

motorola atrix display apk
is it possible to extract the display .apk file from a motorola atrix and see if it works on the streak so we can output the display from the streak to a monitor via hdmi? the streak in itself is a mini computer. i have just connected my apple mouse and bluetooth keyboard and headset all at once and i can use all of them together with out any glitch. imagine the possibilities. we shld ask the motorola atrix forum for the .apk and see if it works on the streak!

I believe the atrix has a special webtop application installed in its rom, which allows it to output the desktop to an external monitor, it would probably be easier to look into external display mirroring instead of implementing the webtop..

I have downloaded and run Remix OS Player on two different computers now and neither one of them has captured my hardware keyboard, I can use the onscreen keyboard but that really lessens the functionality and is half the point of having it run on a desktop. Can anyone advise as to how to resolve this issue? The options, advanced options, and the OS options are so dummy proofed it is impossible to do anything advanced. Is there config files I can edit or...?
I had this happen once right after installation and running the Google Play Store activator and couldn't login in to the Play Store because I couldn't type on the physical keyboard. I shutdown the player, restarted it, and then the problem went away. Might work for you.
Hi.
I have this too, regardless if I restart or not. I actually can't figure out what I have to change in language and imput options to have my keyboard back. The only thing I can do is using the virtual keyboard. I think this happened when I changed the language to french, or tried the virtual keyboard for the first time before then deactivating it. Since I can't find a reset config to default, I'm going to reinstall.
If anyone have a guess how getting my azerty hardware keyboard back, could he please explain ? I find the way the multiple language/imput options are displayed isn't very clear and whatever I do it doesn't work. I'm visibly not alone since this thread is already open, and it may be useful.
Edit : looks like the config files are not in the remix folder. After new installation in different folder, it's directly the same with the new separated machine.

There never was any actual ability to use the physical keyboard even though the settings say it's present. No amount of fiddling with the unintuitive settings seems to correct the problem. My keyboard is a Saitek Eclipse USB keyboard on Windows 7 x64. I imagine this must be a limitation of the emulator or some basic setting. The two systems I have run this on are very similar setups with the exception that the other one uses a PS2 mouse and keyboard. Shortcuts like CTRL + ALT to unbind keyboard and mouse function normally so why not typing inside the emulator?

I don't understand. Are you saying you have never been able to use your computer's keyboard ? Well sorry, you already said it sooner too. I didn't read it was the same person.
The thing is I could use it till two days ago, and I'm not the only one. I could type the physical keyboard at first start of the player without doing anything, it was default. Then probably messed up with the options I touched and can't have it back. RemixOS live or hardware installed have the keyboard detected and used as default. So does the player (except maybe you but it must just be that your keyboard isn't recognized or I don't know what.
Detection and options problem here. No lack in feature like I understand you are thinking.
I am saying that there has been not one moment I could use my computer's physical keyboard in Remix OS player, not for the very first initial run nor extracting it to a different folder, it works just fine on both computers for Windows use though. I am using the PS2 keyboard as I type this... I wouldn't think it would be difficult for the player to bind to a generic Human Interface Device or a USB keyboard... Both Mice work just fine so I figure it's just a bad config file or something. Hopefully someone figures it out soon as it's annoying to say the least.
Since I had it then lost it. Could one user or more, whose physical keyboard works since the beginning and who never changed anything to default config, screen all his/their language/keyboard relater configs please ? This may do.
Guess they don't care... oh well... Nox it is.
If this can help some people forced to use virtual keyboard too. After looking for a suitable virtual keyboard, I ended using Minuum Keyboard and Hacker's Keyboard app. The first takes the less place possible, and the 2nd looks like it has the better ratio between space used and easy access to all keys (it's sort of computer keyboard replica) ... waiting for this issue resolve if it is resolved a day, this will sorta do the trick ... But the problem really sucks.
@Saiber77 @dzeek @Esdeve - Sorry to be late with this reply. I did share your issue with our product manager and he's been working on a fix with the developer team. We believe we've isolated the issue to the Gaming toolkit causing some incompatibilities with certain hardware drivers and configurations. We're still in the middle of working on it but I'll definitely update when there's news.
@Saiber77 - And, we always read and care... just somewhat short on resources and we just finished a week-long public holiday here.
Thanks!

I just installed Remix Player on my Intel NUC and find that my keyboard is not recognized at all. I have a Corsair K70 keyboard that besides being an incredible mechanical keyboard works otherwise great under Windows 10. Hopefully Jide can provide a solution.
Wow, public holidays, devs know what it is and have that too ?
Whatever. I run on a laptop, but if you need info about hardware I'll give. Thought it's already done in the hardware thread. Sorry not being able to remember exactly since what action from me the keyboard stopped being recognized (and I don't think I tried the gaming toolkit, if I'm right about it being the d pad we can see on the right).
Hello. New user here.
This might seem weird but I also had the trouble of not being able to type anything inside the player (was trying to login to the Play Store but couldn't type in my email address). I can use the CTRL+ALT keys to get the pointer out and I see the pinch? option when I hold down the CTRL key. But when I installed the terminal/command window app, the keyboard began working inside the player (weird right?)

I just found this OS; but like others crtl+alt is working, but nothing else. Hope it can be resolved so I can use the keyboard to play games
how can i enable virtual keyboard?
yea the keyboard outside American is pretty bad,my French keyboard here is not supported very well,but the player is still in early beta stage so can't complain here.there are better emulator .
The dev team has been alerted to this thread and the issues being expressed here. I'll update when there are either fixes, or if there's something you guys could help us with to solve these keyboard issues.
As for holidays, our devs work at least through Saturdays and some work Sundays as well. However, for state appointed holidays, it's illegal to order staff to work, so it's entirely up to the staff.
Thanks again!

i used to have the same problem, but i get to fix it making this:
- Open Remix Player
- Go to the last button on the white bar on the right side of the screen emulator (3-dot button)
- On the new pop-up screen, go to settings, and change the keyboard shortcuts option to Emulator Device ( default)
- Go and check if Remix Player can recognize Keyboard Input, if not, go back and change again the keyboard shortcuts option to Virtual Device and check if now Remix Player recognize Keyboard Input.
I hope that this steps can solve the problem for everyone.
psd: I don't know if it's needed to do this every time the emulator runs, if the keyboard is not working each time the emulator starts, then i assume that its have to be done this if you want to get to work your keyboard.
If you have the issue, can please try @starfoxcom 's solution?
We think this could be possibly fix the issue. We are trying to fix this issue fundamentally.

I've had a Galaxy Tab S7+ with the official keyboard cover, and now a Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra with it's new keyboar cover. The new tablet and keyboard cover are great, but like the old one, it suffers some critical flaws that make it difficult to use in a serious context and I'd love to see someone who knows more about the Android input system weigh in on it.
Why is right-click such a hard thing to get right on this device? It seems like Samsung have hobbled the trackpad for two-finger pressed for right-click, it's so very inconsistent for where it works and where it doesn't.
If I plug a USB mouse directly into the device, problem solved, no longer do I suffer right-click not working where it should.
Problem:
I have a hosted version of Visual Studio Code I use to do remote development work, it runs in a docker in on a server in my garage. Cool. But with the Samsung settings for two-finger clicks set to "open-context menu", the trackpad fails to register right-clicks in hosted VSC, why? If I use a regular mouse, it works just fine. If I do alonger press on items with the trackpad, it does right-clicks just fine, but that'd slow and awful. Just trying it now, there's even single-click events that don't work with the trackpad that do work with a USB mouse. Bizarre.
Exact same problem withr Microsoft's RDP application. USB mouse works as expected, trackpad? Nope. It almost seems like the trackpad input is been treated as finger input rather than android cursor input for some reason.
My other pet peeve about the trackpad, for both the S7 and S8 is that if you start typing on the keyboard, the trackpad gets fully disabled, and there is a delay for it to become usable again. So you're forever typing something, then poking away at the trackpad for it to come back alive again, very annoying. The trackpad automatic disabling behaviour is not configurable either, none of this is and it keeps the device just one step away from being truely great in my opinion.
Does anyone have any way to solve this issues? Am I going to have to root my device to use some sort of app to override the input coming from the keyboard cover?
Have you tried tapping with 2 fingers on the touchpad? Alot of touchpads has tap with 1 finger does left click and tapping with 2 fingers does right click. Instead of clicking down the right side of track pad.

Yes I have. The right-click on the touchpad function only works in some places. If a use two finger taps on the touch pad on the home screen, it'll bring up a context menu, where as the same two finger tap in visual studio code web or in remote desktop just does left click actions and doesn't bring up a right click menu. Whereas, if I use a USB mouse, right click works in ALL those scenarios, it's very strange.
I have added a video demonstration to show the issue.

What app do you use for remote thing? Could be a issue with app you use to remote control visual studio code. You could try Remote Desktop app from microsoft instead and see if right click works better.
Update: Maybe not. Tried it now and right click does not even work at all in the Remote Desktop app from Microsoft. Weird, but i would like to still know app you use. That brings up visual studio code like that up only with nothing else.
Update #2: Nvm after closer look at video it does show bar on bottom and i could see you are remote controlling on windows xp device right?

So, Visual Studio Code in the video is literally just running through the web browser (you can save specific web sites so they show up on your home screen and run without the need for an address bar, like I did with this). So Chrome or Kiwi Browser, what ever, same issue. For remote desktop stuff (not shown) I use Microsoft RDP or Parsec, both exhibit issues ONLY with the trackpad (or any bluetooth trackpad I connect, the Apple Magic Trackpad for example). The issue goes away when I use a USB mouse.
Samsung need to fix their trash-tier trackpad software so real human beings can use it, and it behaves like a mouse.
Before this I had an Apple iPad Pro, with the fancy keyboard cover that has a mouse trackpad. It did all this stuff just fine.
EDIT: I just realised why you thought I was using Windows XP. The bottom bar of visual studio code just happens to have the same colour scheme as the old start bar from Windows XP, that's funny! That's actually the information bar for Visual Studio Code, like build status, etc.
Hello, I have same issue when using my Samsung S8 Ultra as second monitor for my windows notebook. If I try to right click on official samsung keyboard it does not work, while I can type and left click without any issue. Any Idea? Of course also two finger tap does not work.
