I've tried a few of the remote/ Makes your tablet a second screen apps, but I don't think I had found one that gave me audio out of the tablet. Is there such a thing?

You might have to explain that one a bit better. Are you trying to remotely access the volume control on your tablet from your phone (or similar)?
If so, Droidmote works fine for that, although the server app (needed for the device u wanna control remotely) is now paying app (used to be free ).
If that's not what u were after, maybe a more detailed explanation of what ur trying to do could help...
I want to remote into my computer and use it on my tablet vut i need audio too.

Are there any PC remote control app? Something similar to the team viewer app for iphone or another one?
Thanks!
Gmote 2.0 is kind of a remote app, mainly for media though.
It allows you to search through your files of your pc, from your phone,
and either play them on your pc, or on your phone. Has normal, play pause volume settings.
I.e. if i have an episode of family guy on my pc, i can use my phone to play it on my pc, which means i can be lazy and not move off my bed and watch it.
Also if i fancy doing it the other way round, i can stream the episode to my phone.
Only works over a local wi-fi though.
Thanks for this Phil, it's incredible and free!
It works perfectly on my Desire and Windows 7 PC (even though the installation instructions say XP/Vista).
No problemo
Only annoying thing is i cant stream most of my videos to my phone , buts that not the app fault, its fact there mostly .avi .
Great little app for us lazy people! Very useful when your watch a series of something with 20 mins episodes and you cant cant be bothered to get up and go the next one!
If any of you use MCE try myRemote, its awesome!
GRemote Pro is also awesome, not free though...
Thanks for your suggestions but I was looking for something more than just file browsing and running applications, more like having my PC desktop displayed and the mouse controllable on my desire's display.
GRemote Pro will allow you to control your mouse cursor and type etc, but won't display your PC desktop, you're talking about remote desktop software, not remote software.
For that try the LogMeIn free beta, or PhoneMyPC.

I'm sure there's a VNC client about on Android
TeamViewer and LogMeIn are both working on an android app I believe

I can Highly recommend Gmote.
Tried it today on Ubuntu desktop machine and It's awesome!
Logmein is already available. Teamviewer is still in dev.
phonemypc is awesome. The execute Actions feature allows me (with the help of the app developer), to open a MS Access database on my pc with one button press. When that database is opened it automatically runs macros within Access.
I then press another button from my Android to close the MS Access database on my PC. You can of course remotely control your PC from your android. However, as mentioned above it is the ability to one button press an action that can be a bat file on your PC.
Excellent and well worth the money IMHO
If it's a remote desktop app you're after, have you tried RDP Client or PocketCloud?
UnifiedRemote looks pretty good.

TeamViewer beta 6.x both for desktop and phone work excellent! Pretty much exactly what I was after for months.
Initially, their front page ad scared me. Some Indian and Philippine fraudsters were using the same ad on their websites with a different edited product name which looks very similar overall (and the same blue website theme). They were phoning UK/US homes disguised as a legit business trying to get you to install such a product on your PC with lofty offers in return (free software, movies, etc). The product allowed them to basically take over your Windows machine without you realizing.

First off let me go ahead and say most of you probably already know that you can do this but I'm just trying to be safe and letting everyone know how easily it can be done (No rooting needed either for those of you that care). I just do it this way myself because I haven't really gotten around to downgrading and rooting yet and needed a way to watch hulu on my couch last night. Now back to the point.
Things that are needed:
1 MINI HDMI/HDMI cable (Only if you want to watch it on your tv like I did)
A PC or MAC (No linux support yet that I know of sorry) with decent hardware (gig of ram and a dual core should work fine =P)
Splashtop remote installed on your PC you will be using!!!! (GOOGLE IT)
A decent wifi connection (G works fine)
Now all that you have to do is go to the mycloud application, click my desktop and go to whatever your streaming site of choice is (say netflix since no one has it on here yet) and fire up whatever video your heart desires. Obviously if you want it on your TV you'll need the MINI HDMI/HDMI cable mentioned above and I recommend if you get a low framerate on the video you disconnect from your PC/MAC and set it to a lower resolution in the mycloud app on the tablet (click the edit button beside the computer of choice and its the bottom option).
My personal setup also involved a BT mouse so I didn't have to hold the tablet while changing videos and such and it worked quite nicely. All questions are welcome and please if anyone finds out a way to fix the cut out pixels on each side when using HDMI tell me via this thread or PM, Its driving me insane!
Sorry but remote desktop is not really a true method and has been mentioned before.

So you are streaming the screen of your PC while the PC streams the netflix video? Know a way to do this without needing another PC on in the house?

Yeah all you are doing basically is mirroring your computer screen. Sadly there isn't another way to do this that I know of. We will just have to use this method until Netflix decides that Honeycomb tablets deserves their app it seems.
Not a very good guide since this doesn't work if the PC and tablet aren't on the same network, and if I am at home anyways why not just watch it on my TV?

Considering you can watch it if you aren't on the same network with a little bit of setup (google splashtop port forwarding) and the TV setup part was mainly for Hulu as most devices require hulu+ to watch on the TV
Also, if you don't want to work through the port forwarding guides that are out there (idk why you wouldn't if its that big of a deal) splashtop has said they are working on getting it on the android side (its already on the iphone/ipad app). I wouldn't hold my breath though unless you want to actually pay for the splashtop app in the market.

Then don't use this and just wait for the Netflix app for Netflix? Enjoy waiting on that one though.
I use Play On.
If you have the time to config your computer and internet settings i would just use play on temporary until an app comes out for netflix.
However things you would need is
- PC (has to be on)
- You can either use it at home only or set your internet to allow outside connection then you can connect anywhere
- Play on Mobile App on Android
- Play on Desktop (PC)
http://www.playon.tv/playon
However, you can test it out as there is a 30 day trial premium .
But you would've to pay for the program license after the 30 days, which is the bad part.
However you can link netflix, hulu, pandora, mtv, comedy central, cartoon network, etc.
Something to check out if you are interested.

I had forgotten about playon actually sadly I would rather not pay for something I already pay for (when it comes to the netflix) and on the Hulu side I'll just use a hacked flash apk. Thanks for the suggestion though.
For now it doesn´t matter if it only works with certain combinations of Stick and Smartphone/Tablet
I just want to know if it is even possible.
With Control I mean that I can see the same screen that runs on my TV on my Phone/Tablet, because I am thinking about buying a Nexus 7
and those stupid things don´t support Video output in any way
Hopefully somebody can answer me this question
As always i´m sorry for my bad english :cyclops:
I use the mk 802 III remote free from the play store to control my unrooted mk809. Works fine. If your stick is rooted, then droidmote on the play store also seems good, but I've not tried it yet. For this one you download a server app on the stick (paid) and a free contoller app to your device.
You don't get a mirror of the stick display on your phone - it basically turns your phone screen into a touchpad which controls a mouse pointer on screen - similar to a touchpad for a laptop. The only thing for the mk802 app is you need to keep switching modes for operating the pointer and operating a scroll function. Easier to do than explain, and its fine once you get used to it.
There are also remotes for xbmc if you decide to go that route (and why not!) which are a bit easier to use with that app.

DroidMote, is not only a keyboard, a mouse, a multi-touch touchpad and a real controller with six axis and 16 buttons, with DroidMote you can play also with all multi-touch-only games even if you don't have a touch screen or your device is hooked to the tv
And with the last versions you can use also your hardware controller via DroidMote Client to play all multi-touch-only games
DroidMote Client control Android, Windows and Linux

Heeey guyz, I want to use my n7 as monitor to keep the laptop in a drawer...
kainy, splashtop, I really didn't find these useful. the main goal is to have an acceptable latency on games.
also, I have a 720p monitor on my laptop, so, changing the resolution to have full 1080 output would be great instead of a scaled image...
can anyone help me?? thank you all
I use iDisplay as a secondary display, it uses USB connection instead of over WiFi.
The refresh rate isn't fast enough to play games on though. An HDMI connection would work better, but I'm not sure if the nexus 7 has HDMI input (it can output with an adapter).

I have used "splashtop 2" which is a free app (paid version allows access even from other locations via the web) and uses WiFi to control your PC and view the exact desktop. It supports windows 8 and all the touch controls, essentially turning your device into a full windows tablet, though I wouldn't try and game with it. I just picked up my n7, so I can't vouch specifically for this device but it worked great on my galaxy Nexus and lg optimus g.
Feel free to pm me if you have any questions I can help with.
Edit - I totally missed the already tried splash top and the desire to use for gaming. As far as I know, hdmi->slim port would be the only tolerable (frame wise) way to game from the PC displayed on the tab screen. I'll see if I can dredge up any info that will help.

I have a Fire HD8 (7th gen) that I have added Google Play store & launcher hijack thanks to this site.
Has anyone been successful finding remote control/management software to control these fire tablets from a Windows (or Linux) system?
If this can be done, I would buy a second one as a gift for an elderly relative who would not be able to set it up by herself.
In the past, I have used Teamviewer for computer to computer management, but the version I tried on my tablet appears not to allow control of the tablet, only the other way around.
A trial version of join.me allows viewing of the screen, but not take control.
I'd appreciate pointers of any other solutions I may not be aware of.
Found this thread searching for a solution to same. This is not much help, but just confirming a similar experience. I installed TeamViewer Host on my new Fire HD 10 and it supports file transfer and screen sharing only. You can move a blue pointer around on the screen remotely (for example to point at things to help the person with the tablet), but you cannot actually click on things or take over and control the tablet remotely. I have not tried join.me but sounds like it has the same limitation. My HD 10 also has Google Play store, but no launcher hijack, and no root.
Incidentally, my rooted & ROMed Fire 7 does support full TeamViewer Host functionality with remote control.

That's a bit odd actually. I would've expected the Fire 7 NOT to have the memory to support it. Team Viewer is great if you get it all working, which can be very complicated. At least I know I'm not the only one who had trouble in my HD 8. And I never seen this thread.
