Is there any apps out there for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 that work like Motocast or Zumocast? I've got the remote desktop app Splashtop setup, but was wondering if there is a simpler app that allowed you to access files on my work computer via the web?
Check out Ubuntu One, works with windows.

So, you just want to access files from your work computer on your tab? If that's all, most file managers are able to access shared files over LAN/WAN (I use it all the time for music/pictures/stuff computer).
Teamviewer is just another remote desktop app. Ubuntu one is just a cloud service. And I need to access my files anywhere, not just when i'm on a LAN/wan. The problem with a cloud service is th I have thousands pdf's, spreadsheets, and photos on my workstation and uploading them all a cloud and them having to keep updating that cloud daily is not feasible.
Motocast works flawless in that anywhere you have web access you can access a PC that is on and running the client in the background. Just wondering if there is an app like that that works for the Samsung galaxy tab 10.1...
You could set a FTP server (I recommend SFTP for security) on your workstation and use an app like AndFTP.
try Pocket Cloud
Dropbox is simplest solution. Put your files in Dropbox and they are everywhere.

Just thought I'd mention, WAN is wide area network (aka internet), not WLAN (wireless LAN).
So using shares (or FTP/SFTP) you can easily access all your files, you can even mount them so that tab sees them as "local" (useful for quite some apps that don't support network shares).

You 'just' create a folder and 'just' drop your files there. How hard is that? Dropbox is not something physical that you have to do anything to it daily. Their is no hard labor involved. You definitely need paid service for thousands and thousands of your files. Just like that.

Another option that helped me was pocketcloud explore. Because you have the pocketCloud remote desktop but this is a separate app that will let you just access, view, and download all your files. It's 1 of the closest things motocast I could find.

So you want to control a android torrent client from another android device?
I'm gonna do some research, but I know that utorrent offers a remote service where you can control a pc from anywhere in the world with little to no firewall/ router configuration....it used a middle man server.
I suppose if there is a client that offers a webui, you could copy/save a shortcut that went to the webui URL button that executed the command of choice.
But I've never even heard of a android seed box before.
I think bit torrent on market does.. the paid version though
Not 100 on that

Hello,
I have the same scenario and I am also looking for a torrent client on android which can be managed by web or by another android remote torrent client.
I think the only possible solution is to port transmission.

I have the same question as you i wonder if you have found a solution. I have seen that µtorrent beta now exist for android. Moreover they released the remote torrent but as far as i can see this is only for the pc/mac version of µtorrent
Same problem here.
I hope they add that option to the utorrent client on android.
Now you can just take over android with webkey (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.webkey&feature=search_result)
or airdroid https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid

A bit late, but I use dropbox and dropsync
So dropsync autmatically syncs a folder from dropbox to your local storage
With ttorrent you can then auto load this folder to download the torrent
nah I haven't found and android solution. .. What I did was I bought a mini pc ,hook that up to the TV and basically use that as my torrent box
Would have been sweeter to use a Android stick for it but I could not find solution

I wish to find a soilutin to for that.
Here is my scenario. I have a old smartphone with Android, what I want to use for downloading torrents. I wish to have access remotely to add torrent files and take the final downloads in my computer. I figure it out how to do it with BitTorrent Sync... I add the torrent and I take the final downloads in my computer and with tTorrent I download the files (he can automatically scan a folder for torrent files). Theoretically everything is perfect and need to work, but... BitTorrent Sync don't synchronized the files in real time. Sometimes he start to do that after 6 or 24 hours... randomly. Somebody knows another solution to do that...?

Im using tTorrent autoload function /Folder
And im syncing via GoogleDrive app - Autosync for Google Drive.- sync each 5m
So if i add to the Google Drive folder some .torrent files - autosync copy it over to Android/Folder - tTorrent load it and remove it from folder.
That the best way ive found so far , newest version 1.3.0 of tTorrent has also WebUI control, but on each torrent i tried to download or autoload i got :INVALID error. So ive moved back to 1.2.4
Hi,
I don't see the remote option in tTorrent, is-it in pro version ?
Thanks for the Drive sync idea, I'll try that for now.

I'm using the lite tTorrent with remote access.
For now it's not protected, but I've change the default port waiting this security...
I'm using Transdrone from my Note 3 to access it and it's very nice to download automatically from my Android TV Box and play it directly with XBMC when i'm at home !
Got it working with:

Does anyone of you use your Transformer Pad for writing documents? I would do so if I would find a good office app. But unfortionally I can't find one. When I'm at home I use CloudOn, because it's nearly the same as Microsoft Office and does not mess up my documents. The problem is that I want to use my Transformer for writing when I'm in school. But I don't have a wifi connection there. Therefore I search for the ultimate Office App which works without internet and does not mess up my Office 2010 documents. Any recommendations?
Hi, have you tried Polaris Office? It does word, excel & powerpoint
here is a thread with download link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099584
Cloud on? Is it for Linux?
-------------------------------------
Sent via something that can't finish it's sentan...
I tried it out but it does not seem to install. Can't flash the. zip. Maybe there is a problem with the other version which comes provided with CleanRom 3.1? Is there also version 4.0 out there for our Pad?
Edit: OK, same problem as with any other app i`ve tried. Polaris does not seem to stick to my custom font layout. I like to keep my text very compact which seems to be the problem. If I open up my documents with Polaris they are larger (one or more pages longer). So I need an office alternative which is as close to Microsoft Office as possible.
Cloud On is a cloud based office solution but does only work with cloud services (eg. Drop box,Google drive, box, etc.) I highly recommend it when you need to work at home
Is there an alternative to Polaris?
Ok tried to install lastest Polaris Office v4.0.3212.13, would not install. then tried v4.0.3210.07, it installed but kepts force closing.
I running Energy Rom by NRGZ28.
The only alternative I have tried is Kingsoft Office from the play store, seems pretty good and is free.
Kingsoft Office doesn't do the job for me either :/ No advanced settings for fonts or any other fonts. I also tried OfficeSuite Pro. But same result here. All of the apps are not capable to align my text correctly. I think I'll need to wait for the official Microsoft Office or the new Polaris.
Btw. I found my problem. It seems like all the apps don't support the settings of Office 2010 which I have currently in use. However, if I save my files in the older format (Word 97 - 2003) all apps seem to work just fine. But I go with Polaris for now Thanks again ;D:fingers-crossed:
EDIT: I was WRONG! All of them screw up... I just didn't notice that when I either save it in the new or the old format my text is simply wrong. My testdocument is 6 Pages long. But all of the apps align it to 7.
Any ideas on how to fix that? Maybe the different resolutions of my desktop and the tablet are the problem...
Mabye Microsoft Office on your tab
Hi, just thought of a way to maybe get MS Office running on android tab.
There are Linux Installer apps on the play store which allow you to install linux distro's on android, you could then install MS Office on linux using something like 'playonlinux' or 'wine'. Not sure if this would work but will give it a go over the weekend and let you know. If anyone has already tried this can you tell how it went.

AW: The ultimate Office App
The best office suite for Android is made by Softmaker. The word processor is called Ofice2012:textmaker and is a port from the Softmaker office for Windows and Linux. There is also an app for spreadsheets and a presentation app. In comparison to polarised office you get a well designed office suite with good import filters for MS docx or xlsx files.
For a comparison between different android office apps go to Softmaker website. We (can't paste URL)
It was well reviewed by the German Computer magazine C't.
However, I this quality comes with a price tag. You pay around €28 for the whole package. Money well invested

Our company has inspectors that go to job sites and, once there, fill out a paper form (1 page). This form is then given to somebody at the office that inputs it into a web form.
I would like to replace this with a tablet based form that they can fill out and then sync the output file once they get a WiFi connection. The output file would be best as tab delimited. They could use a Dropbox or Google Drive account for the sync. So, does anybody know a good form building app for Android tablets?

maybe they could use already existing applications, like Google's Quickoffice, combined with drive?
"a good form building app for Android tablets"? seems legit
if you want to code the application yourself, you ca nuse android studio as sdk.

Yes, I looked at Google Forms. It is perfect in almost everything. But I can't seem to find a way to create a form, then put the form, as a stand alone document on the tablet. I can create a form and mail a link to it, but that's it. Keep in mind that these inspectors will NOT have an internet connection while in the field filling this out. The data collected would have to be synced when connected to a wifi location. So basically all I want is a form that writes the data to a local (hopefully tab delimited) file that could reside in a Google Drive or Dropbox folder.
I downloaded the SDK and will look at that. Just don't want to reinvent the wheel.
Thank you for the reply

Handover Xposed Addon
YouTube demo : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ywYqM1fdP0&feature=youtu.be
Handover lets you seamlessly move from your phone to your PC by letting you open whatever content is on your phone in one click on your taskbar (see demo video, it's hard to explain)
This addon adds support for apps such as Chrome, Youtube and any other app using a WebView. It also lets your copy your clipboard
Requirements
Windows PC or Mac with 10.9 or later and Android phone (experimental support for Linux)
Both in same LAN (network, can't work over internet (yet!))
Java 8 or later on PC
Supported apps with this addon
Youtube
Chrome
Apps using webview including but not limited to : Amazon, Flipboard and links opened internally in Facebook, Twitter etc
Leave a post if you want an app supported and if there's enough demand then I'll try to add it
Or you could ask the developer of the app. Refer them to http://handover.hamzahrmalik.com/devs.html
If the dev adds it, Xposed won't be needed and non-rooted users will benefit
Planned Features
OSX Support (only if I get enough people interested in it, leave a post if you are) this has been added!
Indicator on phone to show when connected
Let me know if you have any ideas
How to get Handover
First you need the Handover app
Then you need the addon Xposed Mod available on the repo
Then download the PC server from http://handover.hamzahrmalik.com
Windows: Run the installation on your PC and start the service
Mac: Open the downloaded .dmg file and drag the Handover folder into Applications. Then launch Handover Settings from Launchpad
Linux: Run the java file to start the server. To launch content from the phone, use the bash script
Changelog
Version 2.0 - 24/4/16
Split mod away from main app
Version 1.1 - 15/4/16
Fixed YouTube not working
Minor design changes
There's also an update for the Windows client with a debug mode and a warning when you close the app. It also now starts minimised
Version 1.0 - 13/4/16
Initial Release
SWEET. This is amazing, finally an app that is actually seamlessly between pc and phone.
Edit: Now I don't have any error I just love it
I get an error with the windows app, can I send you a PM ? @hamzahrmalik
I saw the video very useful app im gonna test it right now but chrome said its virus look into it..of course it isn't but just let you know!
This amazing. I'm totally interested in the OSX compatibility. Keep at, man.
I would be very interested for osx compatibility.
Thanks. Been waiting for an app like this. My Norton also said it was a virus. On the other hand, I have multiple network cards because I use virtual machines and the program obtains the ip of those vm network, is there a way to change this?
Looks similar to pushbullet.
This does seem better for android emulation as copy paste is very clunky at the best of times.
it is a false positve virus guys that is the way it was just simply put it on the exclusion list
Does it support chrome on PC? i get error saying no app associated with task on PC

Would love to see Os x integration, left windows 2 years ago and haven't looked back since. Sounds like a great module.
I always get same page, regardless of what i open in Chrome/Youtube.
These are steps i took:
- enabled module in Xposed Installer and restarted
- installed and started PC app
- typed IP and saved in Android app
- alowed both .exe files through firewall
- started service on PC
Im using N9005 Note 3 with TouchWiz. Page i get on double click is page i open frequently on phone. Devices are on same WiFi.

When you start the PC make sure you also start the service using the "start sevice" button. You can check it's started by looking for Java Binary in Task Manager (see screenshot below)
What page is it always opening? Is it one you have visited on your phone (what I'm asking is, has it ever worked)
Please add Mac OS X 10.11 support!
Wonderful idea! However I'm on OSX so I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer to see if it's worthwhile. Meanwhile I can test things for you during my free time.
