If i were to connect my smartphone to a touchscreen monitor via HDMI(or any other connection) then would that let me control my smartphone from the touchscreen monitor , essentially making my smartphone a cpu for the monitor???????????????????
Like we connect desktops to touchscreen monitors?????????????????????????

Short answer: No
Less short answer: HDMI transmits only audio and visual data, not higher functions of the device.
What is this then

Hi, im looking for a bluetooth remote controll for my Pro2. it just needs to switch between slides in a Power point presantion when the phone is connected to a projector.
Thank you
It sounds like you need a handheld Bluetooth mouse?
I'm lookin' for one, but can't find a definitive answer as to what will work?
I want to view & control the TP2 on my Pioneer Nav screen.
I'm sick of the slack interface of the crappy Pioneer.
PLEASE, can anybody help us out???
Thanks,
Raymond
there is a program for it. You need to connect your phone via bluetooth to other computer, or you can it to connect to the same wifi as your computer. its call gremote, you don't require anything else....

Total Input v1.0 should fit all the needs you want but i think it should connect to your PC first.
What do you think about that?
I already have a old windows bluetooth keyboard that works with android.
I only use computer to surf the webb, write, read. Watch some youtube.
Can bluetooth mouse be used with android? Not that it's necessery, but i'm curious
Yes it can, quite easily in fact. If the bluetooth keyboard and mouse suppor the HID profile, you should be good to go. Also, if you get an MHL adapter and connect it to an HDMI display you can push your screen out to a larger one.
Is this issue already fixed that an activated Bluetooth connection slows down your WiFi? For surfing the tablet may be okay, but for me it won't replace the desktop in the near future.. There are no drivers for special devices, it's way slower and if you try serious work on a tablet... Well, prepare some relaxing tea
Before anyone answer without reading, Im looking for an app that can remote control my phone from my pc without streaming the screen.
I have an Xperia that connects to my TV via HDMI & I don't have any wireless mouse/keyboard. So I need a way to control it from my PC with a decent speed. I just need basic nagivation buttons, home/menu/back or mouse support if possible...
Anyone can suggest me some apps?
Nvm... After a full day googling, I just found a perfect solution
All hail ShareKM xD

The sound card on my laptop is ageing and was not very good to begin with but the one in my phone is great. Is there a USB (not wireless) solution for my PC to detect my phone as a sound card and have the DAC in my phone process the digital audio signal and for me to listen through my phone's headphone jack?
Basically is there a solution that allows me to use my phone as an external usb headphone DAC/amp?
I've done some googling but not found any viable solution yet.
The first one I found that works is WiFiAudio, which you can get to work over USB by enabling USB Networking.
You have to run software on the PC (I tested from Windows 10). Don't know if there's Mac software but I'll be wanting it as well.

it's called USB Tethering in android, which is located in Portable Hotspot section.
We'd like to elaborate here a little as it took us some time to figure out how exactly to use our android as a sound card for a PC.
There's another app out there - SoundWire, which we used and known for some time, we haven't tried WiFiAudio, but found it. Think it's pretty similar.
So what those apps do is they let you connect to your android via LAN (WiFi in most cases unless u got ethernet cable in your phone) and they let you transmit sound to your phone. It's pretty simple and straightforward. The drawback is audio delay, which increases with buffer size. But good video player like MPC let's us change audio delay so we can make it play faster than video to compensate for that, takes a little time to figure out the delay tho.
SO we wanted to try it over usb cable, maybe it'd reduce/eliminate the delay heh. (it doesn't) That's how we found this post and we got kinda stumbled on "enabling USB Networking". Tried to look it up, read wiki and all. Turns out it's called USB Tethering in android, which is located in Portable Hotspot section. After enabling that - it adds a network on the PC, provided it's connected via usb cable ofc. Turned off all networking on android (WiFi, mobile) And it works. Though had to type in IP manually.
So now it can be used as a usb sound card without WiFi or anything. Still has a delay tho.
upd: Using a usb cable allows to reduce buffer size to minimum without getting any stutter leading essentially to no noticeable delay. Which is great.
I've been doing some research on using an Android phablet as both a mobile device and desktop computer. Basically this is what is needed:
Ability to run desktop environment and applications. Already not a problem with linuxdeploy or similar;
Ability to connect external display, keyboard and mouse. Whilst connecting the latter 2 wirelessly is acceptable, I certainly want to be able to use wired connection for external display — HDMI or something else.
The second requirement seems to be either tricky or not possible to accomplish at all with non-stock ROMs. Is it true that no custom Android ROM allows wired connection of external display, like MHL/HDMI or whatever?
I am also aware of Ubuntu Touch but it seems not to support wired external display either, all the more so it won't allow to run Android apps.
