Since the last time I tried connecting via VNC I did not manage to get into a running KDE session on the openSUSE box (from another openSUSE box) I thought I would try teamviewer (even though I really would prefer another solution, maybe RDP?)
Anyway, I installed the server on the SUSE box, the client on the android. All went fine (the Keyboard works nice, the connection is relatively fluid), but I am unable to make a mouse click from android.

Did some further testing:
If the tablet is in portrait Teamviewr works (shows screen + can control) HOWEVER if within the session I switch to 'Landscape mode' then control becomes very limited (basically cannot use the home/back/App overview buttons are not accesible, I can show all apps by swiping up but I cannot actually launch any of them etc...)
My workaround for the time being is:
- to use an automation software (TASKER) so that upon starting a first teamviewer session Tasker forces the tablet into portrait mode.
- Then I make a new Teamviewer session where I do any changes necessary and before terminating it I restore the tablet back to Landscape mode.
Funnily the IM/Videochat APP Skype was not allowing automatically incoming calls (it prompts a dialogue where you actively have to click accept) but it's LITE version did work as intended.
I think this Samsung UI + ANDROID 10 + Security updates have a few compatibility issues. It is no excuse for Teamviewer or other developpers not too look into it to improve their products (actually, to make them work as intended?).
I hope this can help anyone.
It seems like "Host" is virtually pressing a button presented by the operating system to enable streaming. In landscape format teamviewer expects the button on an other position than operating system presents. => Check with the Quick Support application instead of host to understand the thesis.
I'm experiencing this with a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 (2020) running Teamviewer Host 10.15.102-HM. The PC is running 10.15.5. I've also tried with a OnePlus 6 android phone running teamviewer 15.10.140 CL.
Install a app like Rotation Control Pro (it was for free few months ago). There you can give any app a orientation. So i gave the teamviewer Host App a Non Landscape setting. On my s7+ i just need to open after connecting the keyboard an press 3 times space and voila. It works perfectly in bouth orientations.
I tryed with the app **Information removed as per Community Guidelines**. Its much slower then teamviewer and it only works if somebody turns on the screen (on tab a7. Tab s7 works perfect). You need to use adb for grand 1 right so you can use unattended access.
Figured out host record prompt on my Huawei Matepad T10 Tabled. It wasn't easy task but I finally got it working after hour of research. Now I can remotely connect from the Internet to my tablet which is located elsewhere (home for example) without confirming anything on target device. I don't like companies hiding stuff on personalized android ui.
so after almost one year with the same issue and getting realy tired from knox and teamviewer saying its the other ones problem. i switched to **Information removed as per Community Guidelines** and it works allways fine. i also have the physical buttons und works great.
Thanks for this work around..... but reeally? TV12, Do i need to install 2 versions back to get this working? I pay a busines license to get things going smoothly. And how about ... does it work well with TV14 next to it, because my desktop users i wanna support... well this won't work with TV12. And i kind of surprised, a lot of developers I know work on linux, support to mobile devices (when developing android) seem like a very basic need to me..... But in 2 years, still not a resolved issue?????
The approach mentioned for running two different Teamviewer versions on the Windows desktop in parallel is to have a regular + a portable Version.
For Linux I have come across this, which you will have to run through a translation service unless you do speak German:
