I'm running WM6 (and WM5 behaved the same way) Remote Desktop and need the desktop resolution of 1024x768. I understand I will do some scrolling because of the native 640x480. I'll just do quite a bit less than on my 8525 (TyTn).
The 8525 and the Athena give me the same server desktop size. On the 8525 I get scroll bars to scroll around the 640x480 virtual desktop using it's 320x240 screen. On the Athena I get the 640x480 desktop and no scrolling. Nice but since the program on the server needs 1024x768 I'm still stuck. Is there anyway to set the resolution like on the desktop version of the Remote Desktop Client? The only option is "fit remote desktop to screen" on the Athena.
I monitor multiple servers and some of the management tools need bigger than 640x480. My whole organization is Remote Desktop so installing another remote control system is not an option.
you can use vnc insted
Can't use VNC

I have 20 servers in our environment and installing VNC would be a chore not to mention. I don't like to install ANYTHING on production servers. Hence the need for 1024x768 in RDP.
It's odd that 320x240 allows you to scroll to 640x480 but no other resolution is available for 640x480.
By the way I love the old VNC. I used to use it on my PDQ Smartphone by Kyocera running Palm OS in 2001. Back then it would allow scaling. It seems silly that RDP can't do the same.

qvga screens have to allow scrolling otherwise the application would be unusable! Is there any way to scale your applications at the server end to be compliant with VGA resolution? what issues does it throw up? As far as I know VNC is your only alternative. You could try running remote desktop in portrait mode to see if that helps your cause any....
shame there's no application to allow resolution interpolation (as seen on 800 by 480 oqo UMPCs) this might 'trick' the remote desktop client into thinking it was running on a 1024 by 768 display and scale it accordingly.
I think I'm talking rubbish. Anyway maybe remote desktop client has a set resolution that it scales to: i.e. 640*480.
NYDITOT
I know Nyditot used to work on my ipaq but it's functionality on WM 6 is another story.
Does anyone have any experience with it on the Athena other than:

The following link gives hope:

The mocha client mentions that they didn't use higher resoutions because of licensing concerns and Microsoft. Bummer.
Vijay555 says the 640x480 resolution is hardcoded.
Does anyone have a microsoft contact to find out if there is an update coming in WM 6.1 / WM 7?
I had this working fine with the latest nyditot (you have to reboot with the keyboard disconnected) but dropped it when I went to the far far far superior Z2software remote 2PC
i used vnc from desktops but tinyvnc client connected without problems to windows RDP.(but colors is little shaped compared to ms rdp client)
in my sight your problem is good rdp client software.. try vnc, sources available maybe you can even find or implement rdp desktop image software zoom on pda.
Sort of ...
I did this yesterday, I RDP'd to a PC and then from there RDP'd to the server I needed access to. The PC connected to the server with a 1024 x 768 connection, so with scrolling I was able to move around the remote server's screen.
Not perfect by any means, but it does the job if needed.

where you using Real VGA? If so did you have to go back to standard resolution reset then start nyditot then reset?
I have the same problem. My servers use 1024x768 resolution and many things dont work well with only a 640x480 desktop (which is what I get with Remote Desktop Mobile). I did try the mocha one and it works a little better, but only allows up to 800x600. I need one that supports at least 1024x768, anyone know of a RDP mobile client that would support 1024x768?

Yes www.z2software.com supports what ever res your computer is running and gives you the option to zoom in to 640X480 or closer
@hammermedia, yes I was using real VGA it worked well all you had to do, when first activiating nyditot reboot with the keyboard disconnected ! and when you get into Remote desktop go into the settings and tick "FULL SCREEN" and "FIT REMOTE DESKTOP TO SCREEN"
I will suggest to check the LOGMEIN professional solutions ( www.logmein.com, the IT reach solution or the PRO solution. May be you will discover also that the FREE solution is enought ).
Test them for free.
I managed a medium sized IT company and the remote production machines management is ALWAYS a pain in.... and no solution is the "final solution".
In Logmein I love the resolution settings, (I use 800x600 resized on athena) and the settings to improve the speed and screen size on-the-fly
In 1024x768 on the athena I use the external mouse and just moving it in the corner the screen it scrolls in the direction needed, and is really fast.
The client is an IE or pocket IE plugin (firefox client available)

Another thumbs-up on LogMeIn. I use the free version for home and the "Pro" version for work, which allows more features like file transfer. It allows resetting the resolution on the host, then scaling the display (auto or a certain percent) on the Athena so you can get optimal control. The touchscreen sends mouse events. Very usable.

it's true that it does not use MS remote desktop, it uses there own s/ware but it is truly excellent ! far superior to the MS stuff
Do any solutions offer remote sound so that I can hear my pc's sound on my phone? I've tried LogMeIn, the Z2 app, and the normal MS RD. None of them will actually let me hear the sound of my desktop (i.e. if I play a music file). LogMeIn says it supports remote sound on the Pro version, but I tried it, and it must only work with other desktop pc's and not pocket pc's.
if you want to listen to music from your computer at home, I suggest you install ORB as it is free of charges and excellent ! (+ you can watch videos from home too)
The sound quality over RDP is poor and scratchy, it is also buffered badly
How about this one: http://www.zatelnet.com/zadesktop/main.php
Haven't tried it so no idea, but it does say it supports 1024x768 over RDP
excellent
i have just started using LogMeIn for remote desktop, it is significantly better than RDP although requires a bit of set up.
for remote admin and access to standard windows apps from the Athena it is really very good.
Mocha
I installed the Mocha client and it works pretty good for 800x600.
The whole point of RDP is that it's standard on Windows PC's and it works well in low bandwidth much better than VNC. Don't get me wrong, I love VNC and have been using it for almost 10 years on my home PC.
However, I have a dozen Windows servers that must run 24 hours a day and I don't install ANYTHING on them if I can help it. It's a matter of stability.
Has anyone here use the service Logmein ( https://secure.logmein.com/US/home.aspx ) with your HD2 ?
The iphone can do it, but I was wondering if the HD2 can do it also. I want to remotely control my PC at home when I am away using the HD2.
They've never made a compatible AX control for the current versions of IE or Opera that come on the HD2, so I'm afraid you have to forget about Logmein. I was gutted about that, but soon got over it when I started using Remote Desktop instead.
Give that a go - it should already be on your device. (Don't forget that you'll need to ensure your PC will accept incoming RDP connections, and you'll need to allow it through any firewall(s) you have - port 3389.)
You can use IEToggle (http://discussion.treocentral.com/treo-pro/177752-toggle-between-pie-ie6-free-app-cab-file.html) to switch back to old IE (Pie) style.
I use Opera as my main browser, and use old IE for logmein.
You use the toggle once, and it stays on the old version of IE until you ise the toggle program again.
With this (and the RACtrlCE.cab from logmein), it works perfectly on the HD2 (at least for me).
Wish they had a standalone app, but I find this program smoother then using RDC for a home laptop.

I had the same problem, keyboard not working in PIE and logmein but the SWYPE keyboard works OK. So now I just switch to that to use logmein. Works well but not ideal I'll admit...
Use the client
Hi there,
Well I am using the client, available at https://secure.logmein.com/US/labs/.
It works like charm on my hd2.
sonix
I'm just able to find Hamachi2 cab at that address... I think this topic is about usig the "basic" remot control service, i.e. LogMeIn Ignition client for Windows Mobile
Anyway, having an hamachi client can ease the life with RDP
Opera 10
What are u talking about?
Opera 10 works fine with log me in. Rom version: 1.66.482.1
No need to toggle with IE....
Just ignore the message "To get the best experience...."
yup, using opera 10 (has flash support), i can use logmein without installing extra software.
i have no idea how it works before, but a few things i've noticed...the remote desktop shown on screen is nothing but a bitmap, so it's not interactive. so everytime i do an action that changes the screen, it will redraw the entire screen (and it's quite slow).
i can do left clicks. no idea how to mimick a right click.
you can send input text by using the textbox on top of the screen (then click send). and send special keys that are listed on the dropdown menu.
in summary, it's working but pretty limited.
The primary reason I bought the transformer was to be an RDP client (I already had 2 other tablets). For the last week I've been disappointed (almost regretting my purchase) because the RDP support was so bad.
I needed a true RDP client so MyCloud/Splashtop wasn't an option.
I tried several:
1. Wyse Pocketcloud Lite and Pro (which I love on my phone)
2. 2X
3. XTRALOGIC
They are all nice, but none of them are good enough for regular use. I need an RDP client that supports:
- Full screen (auto-fit) resolution (1280x750?)
- Right click (via usb mouse)
- Drag and drop (via usb mouse)
- Wheel mouse (via usb mouse)
- alt/ctrl keys
I finally found a solution: Remote RDP. It support all of the above. I didn't test the trackpad, but it worked great with a USB mouse. I've only used it for 20 minutes, but so far I'm fantastically impressed.

Update: 2X has released an update that works OK with the transformer and android 3.2. Right click was working, but I can't get it working anymore.
Good timing on the post, as I was hoping to find one. I used Teamviewer but as it goes across the network I didn't want to deal with the latency since I only need access over my internal network.
Are you using "Lite" or the paid version? I am wondering what ~$10.27 gets me in extra usage, but I will check this out tonight.

For now I'm using the lite version, but if I don't run into any issues I'll be upgrading to the $10 version. The lite version doesn't have a special soft keyboard for the function keys, but the pro version allows you to save custom keyboard shortcuts (ex. ctrl+shift+f12) for quick use.
Remote RDP Lite, excellent client and I think it has all the features you mentioned although I can't try the drag and drop so I'm not sure.
Edit: Sorry didn't see your edit!!

Sounds very interesting. Does it support video that writes directly to the frame buffer (eg. Windows Media Center in full screen mode)? What frame rates do you get? And any idea how much bandwidth it's consuming?
I like Splashtop, but it'd be really nice to have an even more capable solution...
I've tried RemoteRDP, but couldn't ever get it to connect to my server running win 7 pro 64bit. Wyse Pocketcloud was the only one I could get to work without some sort of server program running on the computer (splashtop, vnc)
right click was one of the big ones, I sent the log to Remote RDP and he was able to do it within a few hours....which was excellent. However splashtop is slower, I sent them the same log/message basically and they still havent got time to do it. I guess they might be too busy? I love splashtop because it streams well, but the right click is such a essential feature.
GREAT to hear this! So glad app devs are starting to support features like right-click and scroll... great news.
I'll try RemoteRDP soon... although my server will also be an x64 machine running Win7Pro.
lordgodgeneral - let me know if you do get yours working (I'll do the same).
It's an excellent client.
It would be perfect if he could get two finger scrolling to work with the TF touchpad.
The only problem I have is that it turnes off local keyboard (I don't have keyboard for Transformer).
OMG! This is awesome! Just tried RemoteRDP Lite and it worked "flawlessly". Everything works, including right-mouse button, drag-drop, cut/paste. This makes me soooo happy! Finally, I can use my Transformer the way it was supposed to be used
Thank you for posting this. You made my day!

Running regular apps (no video; no games), it renders significantly faster than 2X, but it doesn't handle video as well as Splashtop. Splashtop is very impressive when it comes to streaming video.

What settings/tricks did you use on the app to get it to connect?
I just couldn't ever get it to go. I used the same settings for both RemoteRDP and Wyse, but just kept getting a connection refused on remoteRDP. Wyse worked from the first shot.

I don't know of any trick. I set the following fields:
- host to my ip address
- port to 3389
- username = xxxx
- password = xxxx
- screen = autofit
I left everything else to the default. All of the other RDP clients worked fine for me as well (with Win7 x64).
Oh, wait. When I originally setup RDP on my Win 7 box, I did select "Allow connections from computer running any version of Remote Desktop". If you don't select that, you must have an NLA capable client. I haven't tried it, but Remote RDP Enterprise claims to support NLA.
2X now has has great mouse + keyboard support
I just installed the latest update to 2X. It now supports:
- USB mouse
- scroll wheel
- ctrl/alt keys
- right click
- drag/drop
It also has the virtual keyboard for function keys that Report RDP doesn't handle as well.
if somebody can find the Remote RDP non-lite and non-enterprise holla, the enterprise one crashes and the lite one is missing sound and stuff

Great! Hopefully Splashtop will add support for these soon, too...
Why not use VNC client and a mouse?
Mouse should work in USB port. I have not tried, but it seems a good option.

Because Splashtop is so far without equal in terms of framerate. It's possible to watch fullscreen video with audio on the tablet via a desktop or notebook PC, without significant degradation. At the moment, it's basically the only way to watch Netflix on the Transformer, too.
Hello,
I'd like to use software virtual keyboard in portrait mode, maybe pressing a combination or whatever... Any ideas?
I read http://www.droidforums.net/forum/mo...-way-force-screen-keyboard-portrait-mode.html
No intelligent answers.
In my case pocketcloud remote desktop does not get numbers to the remote session.
Plus one hand is easier while driving
Any hints?
smart keyboard pro
This got me a little further
Smart Keyboard got me one step closer to what jojomi is trying to do, thanks Rafeee2.
Smart Keyboard is the first aftermarket keyboard that has worked for me at all on my Droid Pro.
It will display just fine in landscape mode after editing some of the advanced settings.
However, I still can't get it to come up in portrait mode which would be nice...
Yes, I know it has a portrait physical keyboard but, depending on the situation you are in, it would be nice to have the option of an on screen keyboard as well.
rdp 2x client w/ sw keyboard and Free Working Keyboard
Hello and thanks for your replies.
I tried smart keyboard but it does not work portrait mode.. how did you do the test? Enable it as default and it does not show up like the multitouch from motorola.
What are you trying to do PEZ Dispenser?
Anyway with RDP I found a midwise solution: 2x client has a great software keyboard, alas not what I wish to use on such a small screen while on rdp and others have only hw working
Cheers!
Just adding that the app from ericom and AnRdp work, both differently with rdp on droid pro. Disappointed by wyse pocketcloud pro I bought not working on this phone
Well it would be nice to type with one hand and that is a little difficult with the pro hardware keyboard.
Ultimately I would like to get swype working in protrait mode but I will settle for it just working in landscape mode.
Smart Keyboard is super useful for use in the terminal emulator and when using vnc.
Swype would be ideal for sms so it would be great to have that working as well.
I will investigate RDP and 2x Client's app.

I find the hardware keyboard to be great for one-handed typing. Swype might be a little faster for that, but I'd get frustrated with the small screen size and the increased errors it would bring about.
One would think there would be a relatively simple way to do this, but I guess Motorola figured that people who buy this phone are doing so for the hardware keyboard, so they left out any straightforward settings for it.
Can I control my home PC (windows7) with my TF? To be more specific: I own a projector and have a Home Theater room. I want to be able to see the same on my TF tablet as what is shown on my projector, so kind of like a secondary monitor.
You can use teamviwier app that with it you could use your pc throw your tf

+1 for Splashtop 2 HD
There are at least 3 different options which I have tried:
VNC
+ cross platform
+ lightweight
+ well renowned + used
- can be quite slow
- can be quite low quality
- by default, requires setting up NAT to access from outside LAN
- no sound I don't think
Splashtop THD
+ super fast and smooth (like realtime)
+ sends audio as well
+ excellent quality picture
+ easy to use outside LAN (no worries regarding portforwarding if you login with google)
- no linux client
note: splashtop 2 isn't free if you want to connect from outside your LAN
note2: if you choose this, try find Splashtop THD, it's optimized for Tegra, but not accessible through market on TF101 by default.
TeamViewer7
+ super fast
+ excellent quality picture
+ super easy management of multiple computers
+ easy to use outside of LAN
+ free for non-commercial use
+ cross platform (linux clients available)
+ no install required (can run from USB)
= uses different interface to others, instead of touching where you want to click, you use the touchscreen like you would a mousepad on the laptop to move the cursor, then tap to click. I like it personally, but I have stuby fingers and high resolution windows desktops not conductive towards touch interface
- no sound by default (I don't think - not really tested with sound:S)
- For some reason, when I disconnect, and reconnect the next day to my VM, all my windows are closed. This maybe something I've done wrong though.
Personally, for me, I chose TeamViewer because I needed linux clients as well. Any of the above would probably be okay for your needs. If you're wanting to interact with it, I'd suggest teamviewer because the mouse control works better with the small controls of Windows.

Just tried teamviever (first program I tried) but don t like it for 2 reasons:
- cannot use TF hardware KB+MOUSE
- screen isn t filled fully (although it will become tiny if full screen but that does not matter to me)
btw.: Splahtop THD seems to be only for Tegra 3 devices. The TF1 (non-prime) is Tegra 2.
yeah, teamviewer is different. It's better for phones I think - but I prefer it's interface now after some time. My fingers are too stubby just to try and press the start bar or whatever.
Regarding the screen, you can pinch to zoom to fill the screen. Also, in the settings when connected, you can adjust the resolution to match the screen.
Regarding splashtop THD, as I said, you wont find it in the market on the TF101. Perhaps you can think of a different way to acquire it, which I'm not necessarily condoning, involving google and the term "APK". It will install on the TF101. It's a lot smoother and better than regular splashtop though.
I would use just splashtop THD over teamviewer, it's just there's no linux client for splashtop which is a must for me.
RDP
I prefer the 2X app. It uses RDP and the terminal-server capabilities of W7 prof.
HW-mouse and HW-keyboard are working fine.

Logmein works good and also lets you control any computer including Mac. Keyboard/dock works.
I use pocketcloud, has RDP and VNC and it has never failed me yet. I would choose any vnc based solution last for win7 prof since prof has RDP functionality and one of the features is auto resize of the whole desktop when you log in which comes in handy since i hate scrolling around
You could take a look at Jump Desktop

It's absolutly amazin and works like a charm! There is a free version for 1 connecton and the paid version is at discount price on the moment normally 8 euros, and now it's 2 euro's. It's worth it!
+1 to splashtop and its free
Also give a try to TeamViewer. It doesn't use RDP but you can install it on Windows as a service.
On the tablet the remote desktop will be resized without changing the remote screen resolution. Furthermore its tablet useability is awesome. Just give it a try... it's free for non commercial use. I use it even on my Nexus S!
Some names: Splashtop (free for our tablet), teamviewer, LogMeIn (a little bit expansive). My choice? The first one.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I started off using pocketcloud because it used RDP. I'd highly suggest you at least try using splashtop as it's a lot quicker I found than pocketcloud.
