PPC as a PC screen - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
I'm building a NanoITX pc into a nice small package and I'm looking to use my old XDA IIs as a screen. As it has its own power, touch screen etc. it would be ideal as a monitor.
Is there any way that I can use my XDA as a screen either by USB or Bluetooth?
Thanks

You could try using Remote Desktop?

Innobec Side Window is what you want!

Thanks! Side Window is just what I need! Works great with my XDA.
Shame it doesn't work with my Orbit

you can try some vnc flavours run the server on your pc and get a
pocketpc client to remote the pc

I would suggest using Pebbles Shortcutter to create some buttons for some functions you would like to use as a Remote Control and use a regular screen. You can end up setting a home media center using a programmable and universan remote control.
This is one of my plans..

Using ppc from desktop pc...

Hi guys!
Is there some software that allow typing and work in my Jam from desktop pc? (i.e. VNC or remote desktopp o r...)
I tryed Remote Keyboard and it works very fine but I'd like to redirect the Jam's screen to the pc's display too...
I'd like to connect my Jam with USB to my pc and then use it from the pc...
Use this!!!
Hey, Markino.... try pocket controller
you can try Dot Pocket, nice software
Pocket Controller gets my vote, wouldnt be without it. Nice coz you can change the skin so that it looks like the phone itself and even the function buttons work.

Using the HTC Wizard as a Bluetooth HID device

Is it possible to use a Wizard as a bluetooth keyboard and/or touchpad?
My last phone was a S/E K700i. It can be used as a HID device. The joystick replaces a mouse (with right and left mouse buttons). Because of the small keyboard profiles are used to control specific applications like Winamp, Powerpoint, WMP or even Counterstrike. I doubt that many people used this feature?! I loved it! It was great for showing powerpoint presentations or controling Winamp.
A HTC Wizard could do the same job much better. It could be used as a real keyboard (not just a few keys with shortcuts for special aplications). You could even write your text with other PocketPC input methods. And the screen would be the perfect mouse/touchpad.
The MS BT stack for WM5 has a HID profile, right?! Is it only the server part to connect HID devices like mice and keyboards or is the client part also includet?
This would make the HTC Wizard the ultimate remote control for a Home Cinema PC!!!
Is there noone else who wants this feature?
Profiles to control applicatins without using a monitor would be no problem. You just need a small program with a nice gui on your PPC that writes the needed shortcuts to the keyboard-buffer. If the corresponding application is started on the pc (and has the focus) everthing would be fine!
You would not need programs like Vinyl (not working with my Wizard) or iRemote. They have more features but they are only for WinAmp. Profiles on a Wizard could be used for any application with keyboard control.
I would love to control my home cinema or my presentations on my laptop with my Wizard. Anyone has already found the way to do it?

Try to use zRemote. It displays desktop screen on my Wizard... But it works via ActiveSync (BT works fine).
I have SE K700 and I can control my Wizard with HID profile on phone
You want Salling Clicker

URGENT HELP! Remote Display Hack

I have pda2k... and it broke the display... i only see a white light with some cracks.
I've used Remote Display Control For Pocket PC (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/wce/downloads/ppctoys.mspx) in the past, to view and use my pda thru the Desktop computer. Now that I can't use the screen of my pda, i need to access it thru Remote Display software (or similar) the problem is that the program doesn't start right away, it needs some stylus clicks to choose connetion info , Host name and stuff(I use it all on default), since i cant see nothing on screen, I can start the aplication (put it on start up) but can't seem to connect 'cause i dont know here to click with the stylus, ou what keys to press on the pad.
Question: is it possible that one of you could tweak the Remote Desktop aplication to connect right away with no key/styluspress need?
It would save my life/data
May Thanks in advance!!!

use soti
hi
u can use soti pocket controller
Worst case you can use the remote tools that come with visual studio or evc. This doesn't require any clicks, but only gives you static screenshots - but requires no installation on the remote device...
Once you can see the screen, install a proper remote control app.

ppc as a desktop/laptop trackpad ?

it is just an idea. i thought it would be easier than the classic "tv remote softwares on ppc" for certain uses like net browsing.
-> would it be possible (usefull or not is another problem) to use the tactile screen of a PPC as a laptop pc trackpad to remotely controll (by wifi or internet i guess) the mouse cursor on a desktop pc or a home cinema pc or ... ?
is there a software for this ? something more specific than a tweaked VNC config ?
(and yes i know they sell wireless mouse anywhere lol)
or for the wii?
like bluetooth keyboard for the wii, or to emulate a wiimote?
Thats a really interesting idea.......
it would be great for artists who don't have tablets - you could just draw on your ppc screen with the stylus (when the ppc is displaying the computer) and if it acted as a mouse it would be like pen&paper which is much more accurate than trying to draw something with the mouse (like in paint).
hey guys...

Controlling PC Remote Desktop

Hello
I am able to connect to my PC via the htc remote desktop application.
How do I stop it logging out the current user? This happens even when logging on with the same account.
I am trying to use my phone as a PC mouse to open file videos etc, so need to see the desktop at the same time on my phone.
Does anyone have a better way of doing this. I have tried logmein but this website does not allow me to select anything using the touch screen, although I can view the desktop fine.
Thanks
It's not possible to see on both with remote desktop.
You should look into VNC. Or if you don't need to have the screen on the phone but just mouse/keyboard controls there's G-Remote.
You could also try logmein.com - it is great!

I use Mocha VNC.
You can try the following website, this shows how to allow concurrent remote desktop sessions, it is geared towards windows 7 but its a start...

Also, that method doesn't let you see the same desktop on the phone as on the pc, , , both are logged on, yes, and (example) files saved to the desktop will both be seen, however one wouldn't see the same windows media player as the other, and indeed you would have trouble with both logins running (some of) the same program together.
I know this because i have both vista and win7 installs that have had concurrent logins enabled, which I didfor exactly the same reason as OP, heh, it didn't work. Hah.
Something like the "Logitech Touch Mouse" app for the iTouch/Phone would be cool on a Windows Mobile platform.
More info about it http://www.geek.com/articles/mobile/control-your-pc-with-the-logitech-touch-mouse-iphone-app-2010021/
When I'm in bed, I'd like to be able to control my PC with my phone as if it were a TV remote controller or in other words a wireless mouse+keyboard.

It's exactly it, plus a lot more like g-sensor support, direct media player control, etc. Search for it on here.
Hi all, first-time poster here, although long-time admirer of the excellent work that goes on here.
This thread has compelled me to post as a winmo version of this "Logitech Touch Mouse" app would be a really handy to control my media pc at home, as well as the Skype conferencing machine at work in place of the bulky and ugly wireless keyboard we currently use.
