I'm aware of AirDroid and those apps that let you send messages. But I'm looking for an app that let me control my phone so I can use whatsapp from my phone.
I've been looking for over 7 hours and nothing.
I found a "program(?)" called AndroidScreencast but it doesn't detect my root, I'm running ICS 4.0.3 official in my GS2 (International version)
When i type adb shell it doesn't detect my root :/ anyone knows a way to fix this or any other way to control my phone from my PC?
I also tried YouWave but if i use whatsapp there I can't use it in my phone
Any help would be really apreciated! Thanks!

I needed the same thing and searched for hours and I finally found one!!!
It's just like using your phone, but from the computer. You can do literally anything from the computer that you can do with your phone.
Dunno if you tried it yet but let me know if it works for you:

Is there an APP out there where you can have complete control over your phone via the internet that doesn't require: you to have your phone present, wifi..usb..etc., I want pretty much have full control over my phone if end up leaving it somewhere or forget it at home. Something I'd like to see is as long as it is connected to the internet, either by way of 3g/4g/wifi, i can lock my phone, send messages, look up recipients, make it run an app. Literally full control if possible. I tried looking and i have found nothing like this. the only ones that were close, i actually needed the phone on me.
thanks!!
Check out MobiUcare:

I don't know if it will let you run apps but it does do somethings like toggling, photos and recording.
Why would you want this?

that works from some things. I wonder if i can at least use my phone to send sms or access files from it and contacts...
I have a bad habit of misplacing things, including my phone which I use for everything. I work an hour away from home so I cant just go and grab it. So it would be nice to be able to access it, get a clients info that i have on there or be able to still communicate with it through web access from where ever i am.
does anyone know of any others that may work?
I haven't tried it, but maybe remote phone manager? You might have to use it in conjunction with a program like tasker or AutomateIt if there are things that need to be done on the phone to accept the connection. Just a thought.

what i want is something just like this but in reverse so that i can control the phone from a browser.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to help my friend recover data from his galaxy S2 with a broken screen. It turns on, receives calls etc but you can't see anything on the screen.
His contacts are not in sync with gmail, is there a way to set this up using a PC and leaving the phone on so that everything will sync?
I think the most important thing is his contacts, maybe some pics and apps if it's possible. thanks!
U could probably use ADB to pull em off i would assume, long as u know where they're stored.
Thanks! Do you have a guide for dummies on using ADB to do just that?
Search is your friend, there are tons of guides on XDA. What ROM is your friend running, do you know? I was thinking that if he's running stock maybe you can use an MHL adapter to hook up the phone to an external display.

Hi all, already searched and found a few old threads but none with a working apk or zip. Anyone get Teamviewer remote working with the Galaxy S5, either with stock rom or running CM11? I'm currently running CM11 but can't seem to find any modified apks or zips working with Teamviewer remote control. The rest of Teamviewer works great, can see the screen, remove apps/processes, etc. Just no remote. If this one isn't working anyone else get any of the VNC remotes working so I can see/control my phone from a computer?
Regards,
F

I've used VNC hundreds of times before without any issues. Its paid so i can't give you the apk but here is the playstore link. There are other free versions but they require root (this version uses a root method also which i use) but i don't know if you have root or not.

Hmm, that's too bad. I tried it, the server refuses to start on the phone, even though the PC app see's the phone just fine and issues commands for it to start. Phone is rooted, CM11 Unified ROM, server just won't start. Strange.

Just search VNC server in play store and you should get a bunch of other ones to try.

Agreed, there are a ton of them. Tried about 8 of them, almost all completely fail, closest I got was one that would open a window on my PC of the phone screen, but it was all fuzzy, looked like how the cable company would scramble stations years ago. Tried a few different resolutions and orientations, at a bit of a loss at this point. Got TeamViewer to show the screen but cant interact with it. Grrr!

Hmm, very strange. I use the one I mentioned on my tablet. but i connect my phone to the VNC server so i can pause videos when the tablet is plugged into the TV.
I wonder if something itsn't right in CM11? Have you tried it on a TouchWiz ROM?
Just use Samsung sync. You can control the phone over wifi or via therering. Works really well.

Samsung sync does work well, but it is not lightweight. Has anyone been able to get a VNC server working on the S5? I have tried a bunch of apps with no luck.

Anyone know an easy way to make Chrome always open in desktop mode?
I did a search and it looks difficult to me. I use my tablet primarily for surfing the web and watching videos but I really prefer the Chrome desktop mode. If it can't be done I think this becomes a serious drawback for using the S7 Plus.
For Chrome their is no easy method, AFAIK, but the Samsung Internet app has an option to open websites in Desktop mode by default. May be worth a try.
I used this method. Working fine on my tab s7.

I appreciate the guidance but this is beyond me. I was hoping there was some kind of paid app I could install to get the setting correct. Maybe Google will wake up and put the option in Android 11.

You'll just have to run 2 adb commands.. it takes 2 minutes. Use the adb method for non rooted device. Mine is non rooted too.
