Default Control phone from PC

Hi Guys,
There are a number of apps avalable in the market where you can load files etc directly to your phone from the PC wirelessly provided the phone and the pc are in the same network ....


Is there a application where in I can control the phone directy from my PC. Say I connect my phone to the speakers and play music. I would like to change songs directly from my PC which are being played in the phone over the speakers ... ... would not like the playlist option ...

Thanks

Our new app, VMLite VNC Server, does exactly that, so you can control phones from a PC, this provides you an external keyboard and mouse, and you can view your device on the PC's screen:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ncserver&hl=en

it works on all Galaxy models, including latest S3. rooting is NOT required.

'Phone my pc'. Very light and works great. Many options. Root not needed. Works over wifi and mobile network.

Better one:
use any UPNP enabled music player
and use any UPNP client for PC to control over UPNP server in phone

It was designed to revers use (control music by phone) but your use should work too.

Sorry but I can't give you app names right now, but if you search for UPNP you will get what you need.
