Hi everyone,
I have a Android tablet and I want to use it as a second screen for my computer.
Of course there is Apps for this like iDisplay, but it's not at all comfortable, and i prefer USB. So is it possible to use the tablet like a second screen only ? Turn off Android and just use the screen of the device ?
With Windows 8 we can easily share the screens, and i want to optimise that point...
Thank you for your help ! :cyclops:

Hey I was wondering if their is any app out their or any way to make a tablet into a pen tablet for pc drawing but through, maybe, usb a display as i draw?
I mean the pen rec. is already built in and its more complex then the regular drawing tablets... It has a display... now just need something that will allow it to maybe remote desktop maybe?
So any ideas? just dont want to buy another thing when i can have two in one. Thank in advance.
anyone, know of anything? or if its possible.
Hmm? I don't understand much what you meant by...
But different screen has different property. Eg, the screen that HTC using can recognize pen, but if you use the pen in galaxy tab, it won't work. It is all about the screen.

any tablet. im waiting for the tegra3 and then going to bu one. let says i get one which i can use a pen with. Now can i use the tablet as a pencil/drawing tablet for my PC.
i mean if it can use a pen already can i somehow connect it via usb and have it display my photoshop screen and input as a pencil?
You could give iDisplay a go

That lets you use your android device as a second touchscreen monitor - you can drag windows to it and manipulate them on your android screen, so photoshop should work ok.
although that might be close it connects via proxy thing/wifi which may cause a delay on pen usage. Is their nayway to run the pen tablet software of the android tablet? or make the input of the tablet be read like the pen tablet thing if i connect it via usb?
so? any luck?
My wife and I just got the new NordicTrack E 15.0 Elliptical that has a built in 10 Inch tablet that runs Android. When I turn the unit on I can see it boot up in android 2.2 and then after a few seconds the auto starts there iFit NordicTrack software. My question is: Is there a way for android to stop the iFit from auto starting? Once it is started the Home Button takes me to the home of the iFit software, not the android desktop.
I want to be able to use netflix on it while working out. I'll post a video this evening of the thing in action since no one else has yet.
I'll dig around and I would like to do a ROM dump if anyone is interested. I just do not like how locked down the tablet is. Here is a link to the unit if anyone is interested but there are no specs there on the tablet.

I have a new idea.
Eveybody knows that we can setup a vnc software or use remote desktop in windows 8 to access it on any android tablet with a vnc software.I have installed windows 8 on my pc and I do not have a touchscreen.I have a 10.1 inch android tablet. I have setup remote desktop on windows 8 and can access my pc's display on my tablet. But it can be used only with the mouse pointer given on screen. When I try to slide my finger on the screen for example, to navigate in the new start screen, instead of scrolling, the display of the screen moves and the blank space appears. This is because the vnc app is designed to work with a pc os that requires mouse. But since this is windows 8, optimised for touchscreens, I want to use my tablet as the touchscreen monitor for windows 8 to use it as a tablet. I will keep my pc on and access it o n my tablet.
Is this possible?
Does anyone know a vnc software for android that supports touch input for windows 8.
Or better can any one make it?
I know that many experts are present on xda.

Hello,
i'm searching for a 2th screen for my HTC Desire S. I think this is no special question for the Desire S so i post in the general category, please move this thread if i'm wrong. I want this beause the screen of my phone is so small and i would use it for watching movies and maybe surfing on websides. The screen don't have to support touch input, maybe you could use the normal phone screen as a touchpad like on a laptop.
I don't even know if such a device exists but normaly you all no more than I do. I would prefer to connect the screen over Bluetooth but i would be happy with any solution.
Thanks
install team viewer on your phone and pc. do a meeting and use your phone to control you pc and watch stuff on your pc or play games on your phone but with the screen on the pc
thank you for your response but i think this solution doesn't meet my requirements. If I use my PCs for that, the desire would get useless because i could direktly use my pc. I want something like an tablet display panel oder a pain lcd screen in 7" oder 10" so i can carry it around and use it portable (with attached battery). Something like this tinyurl.com/bemc4dy (sorry for tinyurl but i normaly can not post links) but not for the raspberry pi and maybe a bit cheaper. My question was a bit imprecise.
thanks
If you have a tablet you can still use team viewer on that. But the only problem is you have to be on wifi
