Hello!
So a while back I used this app, which I forgot tthe name of, to stream my phones screen to my computer. The app set up a local website that I could access on my pc (if we were on the same network of course) and then view a live "feed" from my phone at like 5-15 fps.
I don't wanna use. jar java applications on my pc, which is the case with most apps I was able to find, so can someone help.me find this app again?
Thank you
Found an app by the name of webkey that pretty much serves my purpose, any other app recommendations is still welcpme though

hi i subscribed to a site that gives premium access to many file hosting sites by setting up their dns and logging in their web page... this works flawlessly on the pc but on android well it consumes a little of ram to have many tabs open and you have to open it everytime you want to download something so the question is is there a way to make an app where you put your login data and the app automatically logs in the website everytime you connect to the internet? (wifi/3g)
if yes can someone help me making it or can someone (best option beacuse i don't know a single thing about programming ) make this app for me nad the rest of android users that would like this service on their phone? thanks in advice and sorry for my english
Is there any apps out there for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 that work like Motocast or Zumocast? I've got the remote desktop app Splashtop setup, but was wondering if there is a simpler app that allowed you to access files on my work computer via the web?
Check out Ubuntu One, works with windows.

Have you try TeamViewer. No issue with firewall

So, you just want to access files from your work computer on your tab? If that's all, most file managers are able to access shared files over LAN/WAN (I use it all the time for music/pictures/stuff computer).
Teamviewer is just another remote desktop app. Ubuntu one is just a cloud service. And I need to access my files anywhere, not just when i'm on a LAN/wan. The problem with a cloud service is th I have thousands pdf's, spreadsheets, and photos on my workstation and uploading them all a cloud and them having to keep updating that cloud daily is not feasible.
Motocast works flawless in that anywhere you have web access you can access a PC that is on and running the client in the background. Just wondering if there is an app like that that works for the Samsung galaxy tab 10.1...
You could set a FTP server (I recommend SFTP for security) on your workstation and use an app like AndFTP.
try Pocket Cloud
Dropbox is simplest solution. Put your files in Dropbox and they are everywhere.

Just thought I'd mention, WAN is wide area network (aka internet), not WLAN (wireless LAN).
So using shares (or FTP/SFTP) you can easily access all your files, you can even mount them so that tab sees them as "local" (useful for quite some apps that don't support network shares).

You 'just' create a folder and 'just' drop your files there. How hard is that? Dropbox is not something physical that you have to do anything to it daily. Their is no hard labor involved. You definitely need paid service for thousands and thousands of your files. Just like that.

Another option that helped me was pocketcloud explore. Because you have the pocketCloud remote desktop but this is a separate app that will let you just access, view, and download all your files. It's 1 of the closest things motocast I could find.
Hi,
I'm looking for an app that is capable of controlling my computer using my mobile, but it is important that I will be able to transfer files to my phone using this app (for example, in case I left home but forgot to transfer file to my phone).
I prefer having efficient apps and having as less apps on my phone as possible, so if you know an app that is capable of doing these two things, and perhaps even more, that would be nice.
If not, I don't care to have two separate apps for that, one for remote controlling my computer and the second for remotely transferring files to my phone, though the first option would be better
Thank you.
Unified remote is brilliant. Not sure if do the file transfers. Airdroid is great but not sure if its good for what your asking, worth getting either way

Your title confused me a little. I though you wanted a remote app which functions as a mouse and keyboard. (RemoteDroid was what I was going to suggest).
But for remote control and viewing, Teamviewer does a pretty good job. It even allows you to log in from a web interface. Linux and Windows support. I'm not sure about transferring files but you can use dropbox and if you forget to put the file in the dropbox folder, use teamviewer to do so.
try jump to desktop for remote control. For file transfer you can use dropbox, copy-paste on the computer and it will sync to your device
As said Unified Remote is the best for using your Mobile as a keyboard and mouse for your PC.
It doesnt allow you to transfer files. You can use and Sync applications such a Box or Dropbox to do that.
Unified Remote allows you to browse your computer HDD, and allows you to play or run any software/ App/ Movie/ Video on your PC.
Thanks for your replies everyone.
Dropbox is indeed a creative way of transferring files, did not think of that, but still, isn't there an app that can do this?
And VicXxX, Unified remote is not good for me, this is an app that is used like a remote control (like in a TV), I need an app that allows me to remotely control my computer, from afar (when I'm not at home). By controlling my computer I mean, of course, do basic things like moving my mouse, open programs or web sites, etc.

Sign, i'm using both first for Controlling my PC/Media Player eg wit my Smartphone and Airdroid for Installing apps, managing Contacts eg on Smartphone with PC, Both are definitly recommendable
Any other suggestions?
This guy is running Windows 8 and is able to see an 'ASUS like' device on his computer. It looks like he can control it as well...
Here is a link to the YouTube video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UpugJkgH8o
Anyone know what app he's using? Is this possibly emulated?
He says that if the page gets enough traffic, he'll offer up the details. I went through and tried to search for it on XDA but nothing matches the way his app looked.
Thanks

I know you can use ScreenCast to do that, although complicated and slow.

You can also use our VMLite VNC Server to install on Android, then control using a VNC viewer on pc,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vmlite.vncserver&hl=en
there might be other apps too
I was hoping the app he's using is different from these 2 and that it worked really well. Who knows... hopefully someone knows what app this is or the guy tells us...
Might be an external display, some android devices support hdmi cable, which connects to tv card on that pc
Hey guys,
I used Chrome Remote desktop for a little while to view/control my computer from my Android phone. It works remarkably well but I got a little sketched out by the permissions Chrome Remote Desktop requires from your computer (basically full access). The permissions do make sense, since you need full access, and it has to go through an internet third party "cloud" (Google). However I think I'd feel better if there was something that didn't send out everything through the cloud and instead just used the Local Area Network (LAN through Wi-Fi). What do you guys use/can recommend?
I do use Unified Remote when I just need to move the mouse/type remotely without a video feed showing on the phone. For example I use it when my laptop is hooked up to the TV for a movie and I can still see the TV, but I do not use its screen mirroring feature. It's a paid option and not sure if it stays LAN only or goes through their servers.
Anyone? Thread was moved.
