phone on computer
not computer on phone

Airdroid (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...e=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=airdroid) kinda does this, you can send text messages view files and look at contacts. If your rooted you can view your phones screen, however its really laggy and behind. It does this through your browser

[Q] Can my phone be showed in my workgroup on my pc? And what is Media server?

Hi,
First of all, I'm from the Netherlands so my english is might bad.
Well, I have an SE Xperia X10 with "WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread V3.6.0". I just hate it to connect my usb cable everytime i want to transfer something. So my question is; is there any app which can display my phone in my workgroup on my pc (with Windows 7 x64)?
My second questions, what is mediaserver? I googled it and people were saying its your phones sound or something like that? But i think that's kinda improbable because it has wifi settings, clients settings, and servername settings.
It would be great if you could help me!
Anyone any idea?

I use the paid version of this app to transfer files to my phone wirelessly

I knew of that app, it would be better if my phone shows up in my workgroup. But I guess there isn't a app for that! Thanks anyway!

[Q] Use Galaxy S II as iPad touchpad/mouse?

Hey guys!
I got an iPad 2 because of someone's success, so it's kinda emotional - long story short, I can't sell it, so I want to use it in an efficient way.
- the question: is there an app that turns my Galaxy S II into a touchpad/mouse that doesn't require software on the client's side - or is there any app that pairs my phone with my iPad in this way?
Thanks!

You might be able to pair a bluetooth mouse to the ipad and hope it works like a cursor(it works on the sgs2 i believe) but no way is there anything that will allow you to use the touchscreen on the sgs2 as a mouse for the ipad.

I use RemoteDroid. Works pretty good for me.

that looks to be using just wifi, i would prefer bluetooth without a client-server system
I use gmote.

that is exactly what i dont want because it requires an application installed on the PC.

Sorry, I had my add post window up before your post showed up for me, so I did not see your added criteria, and you didn't have this criteria in your original post.
Also, through a quick search of the market and google, I couldn't find ANY that don't have to install some kind of server software on the pc you are attempting to control.

[Q] Question teamview, iteleport

hi guys,
My friend and i were playing poker on our computers using our tabs.
He has an ipad2 wich use iteleport
I got a galaxy tab 10.1 and i used teamview
We both succeed to play with similar controls except for one thing:
With teamview i have to drag the mouse cursor over the action button or the area i want to press
With iteleport the "touchscreen" ability stay in, making him really more efficient
Now here is the question:
Is there any other program for android that will let me control my pc WITH the possibility of using the "touchscreen" way of moving the cursor
Thanks for ur help
anyone can help ?
am sure some peoples are using another program than teamview

am not sure i understand what you are trying to say.
Teamviewer is installed on my tab and on my pc, thats why i can take control of the pc.
what im looking for is a way to not "drag" the cursor once connected.
with teamviewer, with the tab, i have to drag the cursor
with iteleport, with the ipad, you just tap where you want the cursor to be
i guess i ask for something that doesnt exist since nobody has replyed
5 Minutes of googling and I came up with "Logmein". It's expensive, though, but it works how you want. You are able to move the mouse relatively like on Teamviewer, but you can use "absolute" input, like a touchscreen.
I also heard logmein works well

S4 and IMac

I just recently purchase an IMac and am just learning how to use it.
When I plug in the S4 to the IMac it gives tow options on the phone, I check transfer files because I want to drag and drop some songs onto the S4 but when I go to the IMac I do not see the phone showing up on it.
Any Ideas what I am doing wrong?
It was so simple on the PC before.
Thank you,
Steven

Download Android File Transfer. I'm a Mac user and this works for me. You can also try isyncr to get an iTunes like experience, although I don't use it myself. I have heard a lot of good things about it. Stay away from DoubleTwist, it only supports data transfer over WiFi because its not compatible with MTP file transferring. Kies sucks, in my experience, but may work or you too. I recomend making Kies your last option if you don't like the others.

Do I install Android file transfer onto computer or Phone? Will this allow me to drag and drop music onto the S4?

Android File Transfer to your Mac, it allows for drag and drop. However, if you have already installed Kies, you need to uninstall it before trying to use Android File Transfer. Kies blocks it.

Android File Transfer in my opinion it is lighter weight and simple drag and drop with easy folder navigation on the phone.

Hopefully you know I meant my last post in jest. I am a strong supporter of PC and Mac and don't want people to be discourage by their computer choice.

Don't know about opening and closing apps, but for texts and to see calls you can try pushbullet.
