How to Set Up and Use Chrome Remote Desktop on Android

Are you tired of the hassle of setting up VPNs or VNC to remote connect to your machines? Do you want to help out a non-tech savvy family member or friend with their computer remotely? Look no further than Google's Chrome Remote Desktop, an official app that allows you to control your computer directly from your Android device.

To get started, download and install the Chrome Remote Desktop app on both your computer and Android device. Once installed, follow these steps:

1. Start the agent by running `crd -start` in your terminal.

2. Create a file in `~/.config/chrome-remote-desktop/Xsession` with the display value set to 0 using `echo '0' > ~/.config/chrome-remote-desktop/Xsession`.

3. Find out what display number X is using by running `echo $DISPLAY`. This will give you the display number you need to configure your connection.

4. Configure your connection by running `crd -setup` and following the prompts.

You can also use Chrome Remote Desktop with existing X sessions instead of creating a new one. To do this, follow these additional steps:

1. Take a backup of `/opt/google/chrome-remote-desktop/chrome-remote-desktop`.

2. Download the patched version of `chrome-remote-desktop` and overwrite the original file.

3. Modify the file manually by following the instructions provided.

Once you've set up your connection, you can use Chrome Remote Desktop to access your computer from anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection. Just enter the PIN code given to you when setting up your connection, select the Google account you want to use, and you'll be connected in no time.

With Chrome Remote Desktop Sound, you'll never have to worry about remote connections again. Say goodbye to VPNs and VNC and hello to seamless remote access with Google's official app.
