Looking for app to remote control powerpoint - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

Hi all,
I am looking for a simple app to control my powerpoint presentation on my laptop remotely. I just need a forward and back button to navigate the slides.
So far tried
1. ppt remote - Doesn't work at all. Whenever I tried to connect, the server crashed
2. Gmote - Cannot get it to work. Cannot find local IP
3. PRemoteDroid - This works but there is no button to go back for the slide. Only the right click to bring up context menu and navigate the mouse to click on prev slide. This is too slow
Is there any app that will fit my requirement? Many thanks.

I use PPT remote all the time. Windows 7, Office 2007, and Bluetooth.

Have you tried http://www.gpad.mobi/ ?

Gmote works great. Did you install the PC app on your laptop before attempting to connect? Were you on the same network as your PC?

How do I make my PC and phone to be on the same network? My phone cannot connect to my office network due to firewall issues.

Well that's the problem. Gmote needs to be able to see the computer. Other apps are going to need to see the computer somehow as well.

Virtual Keyboard and Mouse

Hi all
I have been looking around and don't think one exists, But thought i might ask anyway. Does any one know of a program i can put on my phone the will allow me to use the keyboard of my phone as a virtual keyboard for my PC and the touch screen as a mouse. through a wireless connection kind of like those remote control applications work. Sure would be a cool app to have. Would never have to get off the couch again.
cheers
Here are about 7 options to solve your problem!!!!!
1. here is a freeware app that works the opposite way (use your keyboard and mouse from your computer to control your PPC)
http://www.trancreative.com/rkb.aspx
2. Search XDA-Devs for "bluetooth hid" and you will find a program that allows you to use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard with your win-mo phone
3. this program allows you to control certain applications from your PPC:
http://www.jaylee.org/remotecontrol/
I have used this one, and it is the best and it does exactly what you want and more, plus it is free!!!!!!!!!!1 The only problem I have found is that it is pretty unreliable and loses connection and has to be re-paired with bluetooth a lot.
4. This one does exactly waht you are looking for, except it costs 12$:

5. logmein.com offers a free way to control your smartphone from your comp or vice-versa
6. If you have Vista, microsoft now has a SideShow client for windows mobile over bluetooth, so you can use your "gadgets" on your computer from your PPC.
7. If you want to spend a little money, you could always get the Logitech Dinovo Mini, I have it and it works great at controlling my PC, my PS3, and My pocket pc via bluetooth.
Amazon link:

Or if you want something similar to the dinovo mini, you could go with this generic one:

If all else fails, you could always just use Remote Desktop from your PPC

RealVNC ?
How about the simple way of using VNC from RealVNC ? I use it from time to time, when I need to check something on my pc from the lunchroom @ work. I just use the VNC and use my work pc thru the wifi network.
It works great + it's free + it's 1 file open (no need for install so u can just keep it in your SD and make a link to programs if you want to.)

Windows Remote User?

Ok i have tinkered with it, but have not been able to get the Windows Remote To connect to my home pc, im at a loss and any help?
What i would like to do is be able to use my Excal via bluetooth or via wireless to connect to my pc and basically use it as a remote keyboard/mouse to run stuff..
I would prefer something free, or if you do know a program that has a trial and works as a trial that would be much appreciated.
Basically if anyone is smart enough to write a program, i want to use via bluetooth, the center button as a left click and the arrows around to move the mouse as a basic operation. Maybe add in a key to access the windows key, so i can activate windows media player and navigate it.
I am on windows 7x64 if that matters.

Plenty of threads with this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398282 hope that helps.
yah logmein is not working on mine, and i tried tightvcn and its even worse ....
Finally found the first thing i do not like about windows7 home premium... they left out letting you run a Remote Desktop Host on it.

[Q] How can I use my evo *as* a mouse and/or keyboard?

May seem kind of weird and you may be asking why I want to do this.
I have a little minitop PC set up and hooked into a TV. The way it's layed out, a mouse and keyboard would not fit in at all. It seems logical I can somehow use the evo as the mouse and/or keyboard on demand.
I see two general possibilities...
1) Using Bluetooth (I'd assume it would be using an AOSP rom such as Cyanogens because of the BT stack)
2) Some sort of remote desktop software that *doesn't* log out the computer once the evo logs in. Windows built in remote desktop is great, however when you log in remotely it brings the computer to the login credentials screen where it says someone now is logged into the computer.
What do you guys think? Is it a possibility?
Have you tried Gmote? I think it's exactly what you are looking for.

install a VNC agent on your PC and use a VNC client on your android like android VNC.
Thank you guys, I'm trying out both as we speak =)

Pocketcloud help!

Just wondering if I download pocketcloud remote on both my laptop and tablet, to access all my files on my laptop will the laptop need to be turned on? Or can I somehow connect my tablet, close the laptop lid and still access all my files?
Thanks

As long as you turn off any sleep or shutdown functions on closing down the lid. Which you will find under the battery icon on your laptop it should stay running and you will be able to get access to your files anytime. Think of it as a server it has to be on for you to be able to access the information on it. Hope this helps
Okay perfect, I downloaded pocket cloud and signed in using Google on both PC and tablet but for some reason when I click on the PC name on the tablet it asks user and password and domain... Where do I get those?

Can I control my Note 4 from Windows 7?

Basically, I'm looking to control my Galaxy Note 4 from my PC with a keyboard and mouse. Can this be done somehow over my WiFi? I read about an app called mobizen, but I have no clue how it works. Anyone familiar with this? What I want to do, is basically:
Drag files in and out of my phone to/from PC
Use my PC's keyboard and mouse to do things like texting or typing in messages into my phone with other apps
Try Samsung SideSync.

You might also try Mobizen. I use that with my Note 2.

By any chance, when attempting to install Mobizen on your PC, did you get a "File Copy Error!!" when first launching Mobizen (which runs an auto update that causes this message)?
That said, Mobizen isn't currently an option since it doesn't even run on my PC. Apparently, I'm not the only one to have this problem with it.
Any other suggestions on remote connection to phone?
I use Team Viewer to control all of my Android devices. Unlike the PC to PC connection, however, the phone must "accept" the remote control request each time.
I second Team Viewer, it's free and fast and easy.
I mostly use it the other way around to control my PC but it works great either way!

Team Viewer from what I understand, won't cut the mustard. For a phone, it only goes from phone to PC, thus putting your PC on your phone, correct? You can't "Call" your phone via Teamspeak. Correct me if I'm wrong. Otherwise, that would be nice if it did do that.
You would need TeamViewer's Quick Support app plus the Samsung module. Both can be found in the Play Store.
I would second SideSync. It works really well and has a keyboard and mouse only option.
