[Q] Remote PC APK? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I was in Best Buy the other day and saw that an app called "Remote PC" was installed on a few tablets and (I think) on the newest Galaxy S4 phones. I've searched the Play store for this app, but I can't find it. Even googling 'Samsung Remote PC' didn't come up with anything. Does anyone have this app or know where I can get it? Thanks.

i am not familiar with that specific app, but there are loads of remote desktop apps out there. Teamviewer and the new google chrome remote desktop are some of my favorites.

I use PhoneMyPC myself. Same concept.

[Q] WSJ Android tablet app

I am using Nook Color to load apk files. I wanted to get the WSJ Android tablet app, http://online.wsj.com/public/page/tablet.html?mod=WSJ_footer.
It is a free app but I do not have Market access. could someone upload the apk file for the WSJ Android tablet app?
I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
i am not seeing that app available on market.
Someone with a Samsung galaxy tablet would see it only. i tried one at a verizon store. Same goes for nytimes tablet app
I see 2 WSJ apps on my galaxy S phone... but people are saying its just a "Short cut" i doubt thats what you're looking for
I'm not sure if this one is the one you are looking for:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9641665/stacktrace.android.news.wsj.lite_1.apk
Only someone with Galaxy Tab can see the Android Tablet app. It would be the official WSJ app (not the app lite) version. Thanks all for your effort so far. The app can only be seen with Galaxy Tab or other official Android tablet.
We should get more Galaxy Tab apps for the NC.
masking
Is there an app like the eris market fix that could mask your phone temporarily of course as a gtab? I would love hte NYT tablet version (though I am sure both will probably come out next year in the BN app store.

NYTimes Tablet app is on the market, I just downloaded it
Nice!
That's great. Do you mind posting the nytimes app? I cannot access it on my Eris.
I'd really like this as well, and the NY Times tablet app!
also want WSJ android tablet app
does anybody have the WSJ (official) apk or know how to make our Nook's Market app think that we are using a tablet rather than a phone? The WSJ app only shows up for tablets.
Thanks all.
WSJ app only works on Samsung Tab
Wall Street Reader (lite) is only limited access; WSR (full) is available for purchase but then you also need the WSJ online paid subscription as well.
On Nook Color of you go here http://mobile2.wsj.com/device/index.php you get the mobile lay out. It doesn't look like the iPad app interface due to the B&N wsj offering but its pretty good.
Note: you must set the browser to "mobile" mode vs. "desktop" in setting for it to work appropriately. Otherwise, in desktop mode, it sends you to the main WSJ page.
Enjoy.
Cheers m8s!
edit: NYTimes app works great outta the box.
Official WSJ app
I am speaking about the Official WSJ app (not from Stacktrace as you mentioned in your post).
The official WSJ app is at https://market.android.com/details?id=wsj.reader_1
The app is free and does require a subscription to get the full content.

Looks like it requires Froyo...could that be the reason you don't see it? Also comments on this link claim logins are still required. Haven't tried it myself.

WSJ apk works on CM7!!!
I've spend that last 2 morning reading the WSJ on CM7 using the official WSJ apk. It looks amazing!
WSJ
How did you get the WSJ to register your email on the nook color? I have downloaded the ap (the tablet app - same UI as on the IPAD). Its a great UI but unfortunately on the NC I cant get past the registration page.

It shows up on mine. I've changed a number of things in my /system/build.prop. Since this app shows up for the Galaxy Tab, I don't think it's related to any of the Honeycomb preview changes. I suspect the following change will do it.
Change the line:
ro.build.characteristics=default
to:
ro.build.characteristics=tablet
If you don't have that line, add it after the ro.build.fingerprint=BLAHBLAHBLAH line on your device.
Good luck. You may have to clear your Market cache and the data for Google Services Framework and reboot afterwards.
EDIT:
Nevermind, tried on my Nexus One just adding that one line, and it wasn't enough. Looks like you'll have to spoof being a Galaxy Tab or a Xoom in addition.
I simply downloaded it from the website listed 4 posts up, from my nookcolor in DolphinHD, by clicking on the "Download app" button, which forced me to sign into my google account from there. I also needed to create a (free) user account, verify it via the sent email, and voila.. working WSJ app.
Thanks!

What's your favorite Remote Desktop app?

I would like to know what kind of Remote Desktop app do you use (if you are using one). I am not asking for those that is remote-ing from phone to control your desktop but more of those that you access your phone data/sms/files via the browser. Currently I know if Remote Desktop by KOŁAKOWSKI DAMIAN and the other Remote Web Desktop by SMARTDOG STUDIO.
Recommendations please?
webkey - seems to be a real powertoy
Splashtop works awesome. And you can grab it for free on m.getjar.com. it's currently part of there gold apps promo.

Accessing files from workstation via Web

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.

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.

So you want to control a android torrent client from another android device?
I'm gonna do some research, but I know that utorrent offers a remote service where you can control a pc from anywhere in the world with little to no firewall/ router configuration....it used a middle man server.
I suppose if there is a client that offers a webui, you could copy/save a shortcut that went to the webui URL button that executed the command of choice.
But I've never even heard of a android seed box before.
I think bit torrent on market does.. the paid version though
Not 100 on that

Hello,
I have the same scenario and I am also looking for a torrent client on android which can be managed by web or by another android remote torrent client.
I think the only possible solution is to port transmission.

I have the same question as you i wonder if you have found a solution. I have seen that µtorrent beta now exist for android. Moreover they released the remote torrent but as far as i can see this is only for the pc/mac version of µtorrent
Same problem here.
I hope they add that option to the utorrent client on android.
Now you can just take over android with webkey (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.webkey&feature=search_result)
or airdroid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid

A bit late, but I use dropbox and dropsync
So dropsync autmatically syncs a folder from dropbox to your local storage
With ttorrent you can then auto load this folder to download the torrent
nah I haven't found and android solution. .. What I did was I bought a mini pc ,hook that up to the TV and basically use that as my torrent box
Would have been sweeter to use a Android stick for it but I could not find solution

I wish to find a soilutin to for that.
Here is my scenario. I have a old smartphone with Android, what I want to use for downloading torrents. I wish to have access remotely to add torrent files and take the final downloads in my computer. I figure it out how to do it with BitTorrent Sync... I add the torrent and I take the final downloads in my computer and with tTorrent I download the files (he can automatically scan a folder for torrent files). Theoretically everything is perfect and need to work, but... BitTorrent Sync don't synchronized the files in real time. Sometimes he start to do that after 6 or 24 hours... randomly. Somebody knows another solution to do that...?

Im using tTorrent autoload function /Folder
And im syncing via GoogleDrive app - Autosync for Google Drive.- sync each 5m
So if i add to the Google Drive folder some .torrent files - autosync copy it over to Android/Folder - tTorrent load it and remove it from folder.
That the best way ive found so far , newest version 1.3.0 of tTorrent has also WebUI control, but on each torrent i tried to download or autoload i got :INVALID error. So ive moved back to 1.2.4
Hi,
I don't see the remote option in tTorrent, is-it in pro version ?
Thanks for the Drive sync idea, I'll try that for now.

Ive tied like 10 clients but those 2 were the best so far...

I'm using the lite tTorrent with remote access.
For now it's not protected, but I've change the default port waiting this security...
I'm using Transdrone from my Note 3 to access it and it's very nice to download automatically from my Android TV Box and play it directly with XBMC when i'm at home !
Got it working with:
tTorrent on the nexus player
Transdroid on the phone

Screen mirror remote control from Android to Android possible?

Is there such a thing that lets me mirror and control another Android device from an Android device (like Teamviewer)?
Root and xposed is not a problem.
I'm trying to do something similar as in my post on this forum yesterday titled "Video mirroring/sharing between 2 tablets". It's worth trying the app ShareScreen by Spring Design, though I couldn't get it to do what I need. Let me know if you find anything!
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Free mobile app
No this is nothing I can use, the screensharing is just the means to make the remote control easy and effective. I need full control like I would hold the other device in my hand.
Did you try Teamviewer? I had no success but looked like it should work.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Free mobile app
Teamviewer is no use because they sadly don't support Android 2 Android connections. Otherwise it would probably be perfect. Since I mentioned Teamviewer in my first post there would be no reason for my question if it worked.
