Remote control not working

[seo345]

Hi, even if i connect on the desktop page on the web platofrom, and on the device appear the notification(meschcentral is streaming) i can't see anything.

Reguarding the fast key present on the webplatform like Reboot, i suggest to add Device Admin permission to the app otherwise in a non rooted device there is no way they will work.

is it still work in progress the remote control? or is it just a bug?

Let me know what version or the Android Agent you are using. Current agent should be able to view but not control the device.

Teilen Sie mir mit, welche Version oder welchen Android Agent Sie verwenden. Der aktuelle Agent sollte in der Lage sein, das Gerät anzuzeigen, aber nicht zu steuern. Ich habe das Projekt mit Fernsteuerung aktualisiert (NUR FÜR ROOTED DEVICES), wenn Sie einen neuen Zweig erstellen, kann ich eine Pull-Anfrage stellen, bitte sagen Sie mir, wenn Sie interessiert sind: D

Can you send me the app for remote control ? I use android 7 rooted. Will be nice. Plan for newer versions without root ?

@Ylianst - Look into Android's accessibility features. Other popular services like Airdroid and Anydesk are using this feature for remote control.

I recently stumbled across Rustdesk, which has an android app that leans on the accessibility service to allow unattended remote control of the android device. It's also an open source project and might have some useful information about how to use the service to control android devices.

It would be great if MeshCentral's MeshAgent could allow control of android devices remotely

Not a solution but a workaround for certain contexts: 1- Remote control Android device via a computer (Windows, Linux or macOS) with https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy 2- Remote Control that computer via MeshCentral
