Can I use my Galaxy nexus as a controller/mouse for the Galaxy tab 10.1

Hi All,
I haven't been able to find a solution when I searched so I'm hoping someone can help.
I want to know if there is a way I can control my galaxy tab 10.1 through my galaxy nexus kind of like a Bluetooth mouse. I use my tab as a media station and watch a lot of HD movies through it but its a tad annoying when I have to leave the sofa to adjust volume or fast forward/rewind etc....
I can control my laptop using my nexus but can't find the same thing for controlling the tab.
Hope you can help
Cheers

Have a look at this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.videomap.droidmoteserver
I have the same setup. I use this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tournesol.tabletremote
Install on both devices and pair them. Can use Bluetooth or wifi.

I'll give both a shot, I ideally want to use my nexus as a track pad to my tab 10.1. Both look like good suggestions.

Get the official galaxy s3 mhl to hdmi cable. Works great!

I have Samsung smart tv and must say that all share works very well. You just need to click one button on your video player and the video starts playing on the tv.
I know this is not a solution for you but I just wanted to share my experience.

[REVIEW] Netgear Push2TV PTV3000 with my Note 10.1 and AllShare Cast

I made a quick video showing me using AllShare Cast and the Netgear Push2TV PTV3000 with my Note 10.1 tablet.

Works quite well so if you want to mirror or wireless stream video, this is a great solution and only $60 on Amazon. Wider compatibility than the Samsung AllShare Dongle, but keep in mind you cannot use AllShare Cast at all if your device has a flash counter higher than 1. If you can get it back to 0 and it says "Device Status: Official" then it will work great. More info about this in the video.
Let me know if you have any questions -- and sorry for the bad quality.
Edit: Using AllShare Cast does prevent using multiple apps at once. The UI speed when streamed does not run at 60fps.... looks like 30fps to me. I find this perfectly fine and the lag is too long for playing a game on. (My TV introduced some lag as well.) I have used Apple Airplay and this fees exactly the same when it comes to lag and performance.
did you say nexus 10 in the video? lol
could put a pop up note to correct that.
So that means if I am rooted (status modified) l am not able to do all share cast at all? Never heard of before, thanks a lot for that ! Am l still able to do other allshare operations?
btw: nice vid!

That is correct. You have to Triangle Away for any Samsung device that is using AllShare Cast.
As a side note, the AllShare Cast dongle supposedly works with Miracast now. Has anyone tested this yet? I have the dongle but no Miracast devices...

LOL. Yep I did say it accidentally. I did put a popup note on it when I posted it but I don't think those come through on the Android YouTube client. Haha

Yep I tried Triangle Away on my Note 2 but I couldn't get it to stick. Something on my phone keeps flipping it back to modified right after boot which also increments the flash counter back to 1. I wish I had known about this limitation before I bought the adapter or I would have just stuck to HDMI right from the start.....
And it is a rather annoying limitation.

Thanks for the review. Any issues with audio sync? Any method to get this working on CM10.1?
Thanks for this demo. I was thinking which to buy, the samsung made allshare dongle or Miracast compatible devices. Now I get a obvious answer.
I bought the netgear hoping to stream lots of video to my TV (Netflix, etc.) but the audio cuts out for a split second every few seconds - makes it pretty unique watchable. I'm running unmodified stock on my Note 10.1 and Note II - it's the same on both... anyone have any troubleshooting advice?

nexus 5x tv remote control?

is there a tv remote control that works with our nexus 5x?
that's going to really depend on the TV model you have.

And what you want to do with it? If you have a computer you cab control the computer with unified remote. If you have Android tv you can control it with droidmote. The nexus 5x does not have ir so you can control via Bluetooth or thw wifis

Is it possible? I found one app cast receiver that works but you can't purchase it in fire tv and it only works for 5 minutes as trial. Can't seem to find any other apps. Anyone had any luck with this? TIA
