I have asked this question in StackOverflow, but I figured it should be asked here...

I need to run my android application from remote computer (in the same network) via SSH (not using ADB). How do I do that?

Thanks, Binyamin

You need to run an SSH server on your phone, such as SSHDroid.

You can launch adb shell from SSHDroid, and then run am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n <qualified-app-name>. For example, <qualified-app-name> is something like com.android.settings/.Settings.
