If you're looking for a straight up RDP, the Xtralogic client is good, stable, and fast. Of course, the full one is also expensive, so take that for what it's worth.

+1 for xtralogic... I use it all the time and love the full screen view.
swyped from my Vegan 'flavored' Gtab...
Another +1 for Xtralogic. Use it and PhoneMyPC quite a bit. Both work well, but Xtralogic is a bit more impressive. PMPC will connect to multiple PC's though.

PocketCloud
I've been using PocketCloud Free rom Wyse. Seems to work fine for RDP to Windows machines.
Logmein Ignition,
It's pricey though
TeamViewer is working great for me and it's free for personal use. You get it from their website not the market.
+1 Xtralogic (paid version). Worth every cent.
Remote Desktop App
I'm going to try the Team Viewer and report back....it has worked GREAT for me laptop to other systems and didn't realize that it was available for the tab.
I've been using PC Remote Controller - but you have to be on the same WiFi network to use it.

Hi there! Which rom are you using. I'm using Calkulin's. I just installed the Pocketcloud and it does allow me to connect. But when I try to login, the keyboard does not pop for me, thus not allowing me to login.
Not sure what I'm missing.
I've got LogMeIn Ignition on my phone, gtab and 2 PCs and its awesome
I dont know about any of the others, but ive been a long time teamviewer supporter, have over 50 names on the list of regular repairs via phone or PC.
seriously, team view is sooooooo useful for me, all the time, everyday.
+1
+1 for LogMeIn Ignition. It's got all the features as TeamViewer and costs $29.99 compared to $749 for a single TeamViewer license.
Of all the ones I've tried, XtraLogic is the best. The only downside is the app crashes frequently if I connect to a VirtualBox VM that has RDP enabled (not via OS, but via VirtualBox). Just letting you know before you shell out $$ for it. Hopefully they fix it soon. It would be nice if they had a trial version, but I can't seem to find one on the market.
Does anyone know if Remote RDP Lite or the paid version ($10) works on the G Tab? I use the free one on my phone and it works pretty well.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.toremote.serversmanager&feature=search_result
Not only does Remote RDP work on the Gtab, but I use the paid version all the time and have found it to be the best RDP application on Android by a good margin.
That said, I hereby commit to jump ship to the first person who releases a client with RemoteFX.
Splashtop allows 3d and videos to be played.
Works fine here.

The keyboard on pocketcloud doesn't auto launch. You need to click the "settings" and click keyboard icon so you can log in.
YaY!. We now have a RDP program which is why I always wanted a tab. So far it works awesome

wow, I thought they were doing an RDP client, not their own that you have to install. Disappointed.
works great for me on my android tablet. Love it
Only $5 hell yeah!
Love the app, worth every penny. It's better than all remote desktop apps I've used on mobile platforms. Browsing and Netflix are smooth and stream all my content from two home servers is great.
just got the app not too long ago, the 1st HP/PALM related purchase i ever made and i have to say.....MY MIND IS BLOWN!!!! This touchpad is amazing, i'm glad i went out of my way to buy it!!!
works great. priced at $5 right now. very worth it.
The stream program on the PC wont sign into my gmail :/ maybe cos its on my work pc, I'll have to try at home
Unfortunately it doesn't support dual monitors, so definitely beware, as there isn't an easy answer to this seemingly obvious problem. I don't know a single person who doesn't run 2+ monitors at home.
its GREAT I'M BASICAlly RUNNING A I7 QUADCORE TOUCHPAD caps ftl. Everything is so faasssssttt!11 I WOULD PAY 500 FOR IT LOL ****n caps
This gives me access to everything I wanted from a touchpad. This is a market changer. I will still boot android because I have always been a tester and worked with mods but lets hope this does not have an impact on the CM or XDA projects, specifically donations and such. These DEVs do a fantastic job and need to be reimbursed for their time.
Can I access content with this on a different network? Would I be able to connect to my home pc from work?
From the description in the HP catalog, you should have no problem being on different networks as long as your computer is on. You can even use it over 3G/,4G networks.
either use the ip address when your on another network or, use your gmail account to connect very easily and quickly on any network, that's what i do
I need something that will let me log into my work's terminal server network (I use windows' built in remote desktop on my netbook). I gather that splashtop will not do this though?
splashtop problem
I bought splashtop today and it was great for the first few minutes, but then it locked my touchpad up. Thought it was just a fluke, rebooted, and it locked up again. Really doesn't make sense to me. Any ideas?
My video play's but it has a very slight lag which is super anoying kindof like its missing frames but the audio works perfectly...grrr
awsome app, but is it possible to make the mouse movement in windows better with some driver for windows. i mean something like a driver if i am not on my pc i start a multitouch driver in windows for tablet controlling? because the scrolling in the browser is not so funny if you use the small bars in the browser
Connected once upon initial install and now won't connect again.. Also videos very choppy. (AMD Phenom 2 3.2ghz, 2GB DDR3 RAM, Radeon HD Graphics) ???
The Free app of the Day on Amazon is "Splashtop Remote Desktop"
The app is supposed to let you link to a computer and access an files or programs on that machine.
The app seems like it might be useful but I would like to get your feedback on it.
(I am not associated at all with this app or its developer, I just thought it was neat and would like to get more opinions on it)
Thanks!

It requires that you install a client on your machine to use. I would recommend using the built-in RDP for Windows. There are many free RDP clients out for android that work, such as 2X, and do the same thing without installing extra.
If you are using a mac check out the computer specs because it only works on lion. I use jump and love it

While reading the reviews listed for the Amazon Appstore for Splashtop, something that struck me as concerning was the lack of encryption. The reviewer did a great deal of research and said that Splashtop should have it available, though not when that date will come.
Personally, I use the free version of Pocket Cloud from Wyse for my remote desktop needs. It works well and uses your Google account information for logging in.
I've used Pocket Cloud and Splashtop on OS X Snow Leopard, so the poster saying it only works on Lion is wrong. Splashtop's encryption is loose to speed the program up. Splashtop is great for accessing your computer from your own LAN but insecure if you are on another network. Splashtop is cool, might as well give it a try, but I prefer Pocket Cloud overall.
my bad

Sorry about that, I just saw SL as well. My mistake.
is there an app out there that lets you remote into your computer and transfer files over? i've used teamviewer in the past for just remote connection , but it has stopped working for me. it may be a firewall issue or something i just haven't found yet but i wanted to see what others where using.
I use POCKETCLOUD for RDP / VNC.

If you are just after files then consider setting up an FTP server.
Proxying isn't necessary if you intend to authenticate directly with the FTP server but I have my server only respond to internal addresses and therefore have to tunnel in and then proxy the requests through the tunnel.
To accomplish this I setup a proxy on the phone (proxydroid) a ssh tunnel (connectbot) and a ftp client (andftp). I'd like to find a client that has its own socks5 proxy so I would not have to use proxydroid.
thanks i'll try out the pocket cloud one. i don't have the knowledge to set up an ftp server. actually now that i think about it i don't really need to transfer any files anyway. but being able to kick off downloads on my desktop was nice to have when i had it working. thanks guys.
I paid for the Splashtop app. I like it so far. I am able to use the native screen resolution on my pc and everything seems to work fine. Give it a try.
I second Splashtop if you are looking for a remote desktop app. The only thing is right now they are moving to Splashtop 2 and last I checked the android app for it isn't out yet but Everything still works.

I got splashtop for free from amazon app store when they had it for the free app of the day. Not rubbing it in but just throwing it out there for the ones not familiar.

I use LogMeIn Ignition. It works really well, even over a so-so connection It's pricy, but I believe they give you a 1 month trial.

Tips for the best remote desktop app for Windows running on a Nexus 9?
What exactly do you mean? Being able to connect to a system running windows via windows remote desktop?
Or connecting to your device via windows remote desktop?
For the first one.. hooow about... something by M$? Like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.rdc.android
For the latter: I don't know if this works at all. It's hard enough to get it running properly on a non-windows-system. (XRDP for linux) Android? No way.
Cheers.
Thanks, meant the first alternative.
How about Chrome remote desktop?
Splashtop

Maybe Splashtop for lowest latency?
I can highly recommend you Splashtop!
If you want to remote games I would recommend you limelight!
Try Google Chrome Remote, or Teamviewer.
Teamviewer works incredibly well for me. I have it on all my windows machines and my Android phone and tablet. Makes remote access a breeze!
Splashtop works with N7 Flo running latest L preview. I have Windows 7 on PC. Love Splashtop.

Chrome Remote Desktop is amazing. And very easy to use. I like it a ton more than splashtop or teamviewer.

VNC too
The Microsoft RDP Client on Android L works really well, especially with Windows 10.
You can actually use win+shift+left/right to switch desktops quite easily on the MS RDP client on Android.
On a Nexus 9 however the default resolution could make desktop items look too small.
My humble opinion is that Microsoft should update their RDP client on Android to
allow for a few different resolution settings
allow hiding of the top navigation toolbar
allow optimization preferences for slower networks
take back win+tab and alt+tab from Android selectively
I know they are dealing with some technical limitations/hurdles and possibly some political ones.
But that's how I see it.
i liked splashtop at the start, i purchased the premium paid versions of their phone/tablet versions. Then they started to change their tune and seek more money from me. I sinced moved to team viewer and have it on approximately 6 MS computers as well as 3 phones/tablets. It works a treat and have not had to pay a cent. Connection is rather smooth but does have its issues. I mostly use it to grab files off a device while away or for a quick debug, nothing graphic intensive anyway

I never moved from the free version. It works for me. I even avoid the $15. Slingbox app by going through Splashtop Remote. Good to know there are great alternatives, though.

Wow! I thought they were $30. when released (didn't have the slingbox then). The ipad one works great but haven't read very great reviews on the Slingbox on N7 Flo.
You scored one there! :good:
Teamviewer , it has free version. Ammy need license for VPC.
I like Chrome Remote Desktop since I have macs and pc's that I remote into. Once the N9 gets here I'll try the new windows remote desktop app (RD Client Beta). I tried it on my phone and it looked pretty nice. JUMP is also pretty nice.
As a Windows admin I use Jump Desktop. It supports Win8 & Srv2012R2 touch features plus it allows custom resolutions and the use of RemoteDesktop gateway. Very good program!
