I saw an app on the market which can connect wireless, but 4.99$ I don't have the app, but it may work I will edit with link in a tiny bit
EDIT: The HD app is on sale right now for 4.99$ (usually 9.99$), sorry I couldnt put link up, using iPhone also, it works with Mac but you need snow leopard.
It's called Splastop Remote Desktop HD

I'm coming to Android and the Samsung Galaxy S Model GT-I9000M from using WM6.5 on an HTC HD2. So far, I like the Samsung Galaxy S better, but I miss one thing - I was able to download files directly from my Windows Home Server (WHS) to my HTC HD2 running WM6.5 using Windows IE browser over either 3G or WiFi.
I have tried the Google, Dolphin, and Opera browsers on the Galaxy S. However, I just cannot download files from my WHS. The Galaxy S connects using the browsers to my WHS just fine. I can browse through the contents of my WHS, but when I go to download a file, it tries for a long time but doesn't download anything. Android shows it's trying to download but it just tries and tries and says something like "trying to connect with server".
Being able to remotely download files is fantastic while traveling. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to make this work? I know there are service like Drop Box. They are not what I want. WHS is designed to allow one access to their files from anywhere using just a web browser. So far Android does not seem to be able to handle this. It's my one big complaint. Actually, I have one other, the Samsung Galaxy S camera sucks.
Try skyfire 3.0. I use that to download most stuff from there which i cant download from stock browser

Thanks, but skyfire does not work either. I'm going to have to post this question on an android forum.
Why not dropbox? Dropbox can be accessed via their website from any browser too..
Drop Box is a partial solution. However accessing my WHS gives me access to alk my files. It has a two terrabyte capacity. Dopbix is a partial solution. I can also access my work files via one of the remote desktop apps. However, it's slower and harder to control a full fledged server with a phone than it is to control a WHS. The WHS is a very slick storage device.

Ok, for anyone who is interested in this topic, my Samsung Galaxy S could not download files from my Windows Home Server using any of the browsers I could find. So I went out and got an HTC Glacier (MyTouch 4G). I can access the files on my WHS now using my Glacier and the latest Opera Mini from the marketplace. I can now do every business function that I could on my WM6.5 HD2 and much more. The speeds of T-Mobile's 4G are really incredible. I am one happy customer. I just wished the screen were bigger in the Glacier.

Hmm. Whs uses smb/cifs shares? In that case you need a kernel with cifs enabled im guessing

Resurecting an old thread but the only way that I have been able to access and download WHS files on my anderoid is by setting up WebDavfor WHS on the server and then using WebDAV Navigator Lite
It's great that I can use something like Teamviewer or Connectbot to connect to my home PC and download a file (onto the PC) remotely, from anywhere in the world using my fast and (practically) unlimited home broadband.
What I'd like to then do is download that file onto my Nexus 7. And occasionally upload files. However, neither Connectbot nor Android Terminal Emulator have scp built in and, while Teamviewer claim that their latest version has the ability to transfer files, it hasn't appeared on the Play Store yet.
Does anyone know of any other relatively simple solution to this problem? By simple I mean that I don't want to set up the PC as an ftp server. The home PC runs Kubuntu 12.04, by the way.

I've been using ES for a couple of years now, including accessing other nodes on my network with Samba shares. How, precisely, will ES be useful in the above scenario?

Airdroid?
AirDroid won't work over the Internet, only on a local LAN. Or, at least, it won't work from the free WiFi access points that I use.

Thanks for the suggestion. There are surprisingly few. But now I've had time to check them out I've found VX Connectbot which adds file upload and download plus other features to the original Connectbot.

I know this is an old thread, but did you ever figure out how to use SCP on VX Connectbot? It's surprisingly not documented well on the Net, on its homepage or on Github. This thread came up on Page 2 of a Google search!
No, I didn't get that far. I found that TeamViewer fitted my specific use case.

Hi all,
I recently bought a nexus 7 and i already own a nexus s.
What i want to do is take over my phone using my tablet, so i can use whatsapp and text app's. But also others.
Does anyone know if there is an app that will let me do this?
I have searched but found nothing.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers,
Predrag

If you mean mirror your phone to your nexus then no.
If you mean you you want to be able to text from your tablet:
TabletTalk
TabletSMS
Check them out?
I'm not sure if the nexus s supports mirroring via the usb port, but if it does then you could probably use your tablet as a display to your phone

The downside is that the usb ports on both will be permanently occupied

No, i dont want to mirror it rather take it over, like using remote desktop on windows pc.

If you mean using your tablet to receive text and calls then theres this app called "tablet talk" on the market. You will need to have either both Bluetooth ON or you can do it over wifi i think.
Hope it helps.
You guys are misunderstanding him. What he wants is a remote-control app for his tablet so he can control his phone, and although he wants it to seemingly make things "easier" by using his tablet to text, my solution isn't the best and smoothest option (but it works). Your best bet is to use an IM app that supports all the protocols you want to chat through and have it installed on both your phone and tablet. Like someone mentioned, to get SMS on your tablet you'll need something like TexTab.
Anyway, my solution works, if you use the app "Droid VNC Server" on your phone, and then use a VNC-Viewer either on your Tablet or on your PC. The "Droid VNC Server" is free, but the official VNC Viewer is not. There may be alternatives, though.
Droid VNC Server: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lt#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5vbmFpcHMudm5jIl0.
Another VNC Viewer I found which seems free "Android VNC-Viewer": https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImFuZHJvaWQuYW5kcm9pZFZOQyJd
I can confirm that the "Droid VNC Server" and a VNC Viewer on your PC/Tablet works to view your phone's screen on your tablet and even control your phone through your tablet as my dad often needs help with his phone. All he does is start the Droid VNC Server app and I have his IP saved, and I just connect.
It's slow, but it gets the job done if you really need it.
Good luck!

Doesn't work with Note II

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 use TeamViewer - it's free (if you're not a corporation) and it's really easy to set up. I tell all my family to install it so I can fix their problems remotely. But yeah, it should do whatever you want.
I use Logmein app, I can even listen to my music that's on my pc on my Note 3

Team-Viewer since years
AFreeRDP and AndroidVNC, Windows has remote desktop built in so the other paid apps seem a bit of a kludge to do something Windows already provisions for. I run an OpenVPN server on my router that bridges my phone onto my LAN from public WiFi or 4G. Most of the time my computers are running Linux and for that I use terminal emulator with ssh or AFreeRDP+xrdp or AndroidVNC...Linux (Ubuntu GNOME 13.10 in my case) has a lot of nice remote access solutions available and they work well. All free and open source too.

Teamviewer is the free alternative, LogMeIn has been great so far too however I would also look at Splashtop...It has alot of claims but Ive found it to be slightly laggier then Logmein or Teamviewer.
