A long time ago I had an app then let me control my PowerPoint presentations on the PC using my phone as a remote over BT. I can't for the life of me remember what it was called. Anyone aware of such an app?

GRemote is a popular option for that. Not free, but hard to beat.

That lets you remote control your computer? psxdroid or something of that nature
I use remote droid to control the keyboard and mouse over wifi, but there are others like gremote. Unless you're talking about remote desktop, in which case I use pocket cloud.
Remote desktop for when I'm out and about

Shroomz, your questioin is pretty vague. Care to elaborate?
How do you mean "remote control"?
If you mean remote desktop then xtralogic rdp ftw..
Anyone get their A500 working with iDisplay?
HI
What mean iDisplay , pls , ( I'm a chicken!!1 )
It's an app that allows your tablet to be used as a monitor for your PC or Mac. Check out the market for it.
yeah works fine, tho a bit laggy.. but I figured that was more a product of wireless response.
Didn't work on mine. I was able to see the computer but got a failure message everytime I tried to connect. Even restart did not help so I returned the app.
Would have been a great idea though if it worked
Are there any alternatives?
I use splashtop for my setup at home... whether you move the physical mouse or the touch screen both the pc and the tab update... I can remotely (here at work) controll my pc's with this cool app... I can use it as a media player (a bit choppy) you can turn the sound off of the pc and have the sound come out your tab.. very cool... beats having to go into the basement to start a bunch of conversions... I just do it from my tab.

This isn't a VNC-like screen sharing program, it's an app that allows you to extend your monitor onto the tab like another monitor.

archos has a remote app that lets you use your phone as a remote for the archos gen 8 series.

+1 This would be very useful, mainly for when connected via HDMI to a TV or playing music in a different room, then just use phone as a remote.
Point of interest, the game Crazy Snowboard from the market has an option where you can play on your tablet while controlling your snowboarder from an Android phone via wifi. Figured I'd mention it since this is along the same line as what we're looking for.
No way to control Iconia from an Android device ???

Digging up an old thread here. I use TeamViewer to access my other PC's from Android devices, but am looking for something where I could access the tablet from my PC. Is anyone aware of an app to remote access the Androids?
B to the izzump!

Havent tried it but this: market.android.com/details?id=com.iandrobot.andromouse.lite
or this: market.android.com/details?id=berserker.android.apps.blueputdroid
would probally work. Basically they just turn your phone into a bluetooth mouse and keyboard. Theres many other apps like this, those are just two that i picked.
Im sure there are vnc servers apps out there for android. you could install a vnc client on your phone then remote in to the tablet with the vnc server running. That would be one way of doing it. That's not very elegant but would work.

Not likely what I'm looking for as I would not be near the tablet, and even if I were, it's not likely I would use this rather than just picking up the tablet.

I thought of this, and would work maybe 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time is if my tablet happens to be somewhere other than my house as it would then be on a different network and the client would not have a way to get to it, unless there are VNC servers that have a web service that broadcasts the tablets current location, similar to dyn-dns.

Hi,
I've found an app to control an android device from another android device. You have to install the app "DroidMote Client" on the device from which you want to control and install "DroidMote Server" on the device which you want to control. I'm using this on my HTC Desire to control my Transformer while it is connected to my TV. It works really good with this devices
Look at YouTube

Bluepurdroid is free on the market and works over bluetooth. You can choose to use a mousepointer to navigate your iconia, keyboard also works. You can also use a sixaxis controller. Haven't tried this on my A500 but works great on my ps3. The mouse and keyboard works just fine, like using a bluetoothkeyboard.
Great app for controlling the a500 while using it with a HDTV.
Something like teamviewer or vpn server?
hm while using team viewer to connect to pc in the popup window on pc there is a no. which is used to cennect to the device. Did someone tried to use this no. to connect back to the team viewer on the tablet?
i've been using DroidMote between my Iconia and my Fascinate for months running netflix and google music on my tv. definitely don't regret not getting a google tv device! ha. it runs great and yes you can use a wireless (usb) keyboard and mouse but most of us also own an android phone and they're much more convenient and one handed. just thought i'd put my two cents out there for anyone stumbling across this thread. totally worth the money, replaced my wii for HD netflix streaming!
Tjek this out. I found it in Note 10.1 General section. It is working perfekt on Note 2

Doesn't work with Note II
Error; unknown host
Maybe with one of the ROM that have tablet mode it will work.
Edit: You can control your PC from NOTE II with Splashtop Streamer but not the opposite.
It's working for me with sungsonic hd v2.

Splashtop doesn't allow running apps. Do you know other remote control app that allow running the phone apps within the remote session?

Splashtop is to control your PC from your phone. When you connect to your PC via Splashtop your phone become Windows XX and you can fully use your Windows/MAC/Linux from your phone even if you're not at home as it use the internet to connect. You can even set Splashtop as a second monitor and use it as an extended desktop. Pretty useful if you have a tablet.
Mobizen control your PHONE from pc.
To my knowledge only Mobizen can control phone app from remote.

I know I can plug a bluetooth mouse in. And it works very well. But I was just curious if there was an app that would let me do this from my phone.

Not for that app that I know of, but root is ez
What about an app like "Bluetooth Mouse" as a bluetooth enabled touchpad device. There is an option within the app to become discoverable as a bt mouse would be. Seems like the NP would simply add it as another input device.
i have my nexus 4 and nexus 5 kernels support usb hid mouse support, so you can plug in your phone and use it as a mouse as well
