Anyone using Veency on iPhone 4?

[WesCole]

Any update on this? I loved Veency for my 3g and would love for a fully-working version to come out for my iPhone 4.

Anyone come up with a way to make Veency work without the resolution\cursor issue plaguing the app? It looks AMAZING, I'd be a first time user, but the fact that due to resolution when I click one place and the phone thinks the cursor is somewhere else.

Has anyone heard anything about this app being updated for 4.0 or another VNC client for the iPhone that'll do the same thing? I'd like to be able to control\view\SMS from my iphone's screen from my computer.

Here's how I got it to work. Simply turn ON the remote cursor and turn off the local cursor. Then you see where the pointer really is on the iPhone 4. It's not perfect and there will be a brief moment of disorientation as you move your cursor from your desktop into the VNC client window. Still, it works.

I am using TightVNC Portable 1.3 for Windows over WiFi with:
Encoding: Tight
Use 8 bit color
Scale by 50%
Track Remote Cursor Locally
No Local Cursor

I am still hoping that Saurik will update this as well as some of his other apps but no one knows for sure. He has not answered any tweets on the subject so far.

you posted this in three threads. It's like saying your MyWi wireless tethering doesn't work, so use a USB to tether ... people realize it works but for the screen resolution.... but if the workaround you suggest completely negates the purpose of the app, it's not really a worthy "workaround"

I'm sorry you're so unhappy. I just don't see how it 'completely negates the purpose of the app. Oh well, you don't have to do it that way.

Not unhappy. The purpose of this thread is to come up with a resolution that restores the app to it's intended purpose. There are plenty other ways to control your iphone with a keyboard and\or mouse, but the point of VNC is you can control your iphone from the computer screen if it's in your pocket, across the room,or across the world. If it has to be sitting on my desk next to my computer screen to use the remote control app, I can just use my finger. The point is to not have to touch the iphone to be able to remote into it.

Could anyone please PM the files/instructions on how to do this via USB?
I have no issues through wifi, but I don't have access to wifi at work.

Thanks.
