Anyone with the Touchpad here?

I'm one of the lucky ones who scored a Touchpad last weekend. That is a great machine.
I am trying to use wifi tether from my epic 4g to the touchpad but the touchpad does not see the connection. (my ipod touch and PC see it). Anyone knows what's the problem? I heard it might something to do with some ad hoc stuff...

Use the wifi tether that says "with more infrastructure" its somewhere in the epic forums

Yes use that version of wifi tether. I had mine running last night from my EVO 3d. I just chose epic 4g under settings and for the device profile. Seemed to work fine. Touchpad is nice, I am just itching to put some version of Android on it. Even with a media player app that says it supports avi and other files, I can't seem to get videos other than mp4 format to play on it.

Google touchplayer, or get it from preware if you have it installed on your touchpad...HP touchpad forum here on xda has info on performance tweaks and stable overclocking as well, lots of good stuff done through preware app

I have the preware and some of the tweaks. I also downloaded touchplayer and tried to play avi movie on it and it was all distorted and the formatting was all messed up. Like it was playing in three separate boxes at the same time. Nothing I tried worked.

Opps I replied in the wrong thread lol. Well I am hoping HP has some touchpads soon. Would love to put Android on it but I am sure it will look kind of weird in a 4x3 screen.

I am also one of the lucky ones who scored a 32GB touchpad on the firesale. What I would really like to see is the SMS/call integration with the touchpad. Anyone know what kinds of protocols the pre3 and touchpad use for SMS/call integration? I am guessing that it can all be done through bluetooth? I have done ROM and theming stuff, and have mild experience with C++, but this kind of project is a bit out of my league.

Well, the CM7 team has made a lot of progress getting it onto the TouchPad already. Here's a video from android police showing it booting into CM7. It's super quick too!
Lots of quirks to work through still. The guy said that the touchscreen input isn't working yet.

Ohhh mannnnn

I got one. Haven't even messed with preware but its def slow. Webos has 0 apps lol

I was teathered to my epic and activating my webOS account on morning of firesale while still in parking lot of Wal-Mart. And browsing while on way to 2nd and 3rd store pickups.
no issues at all.
running acs latest release with emotionless beast on top.

removed 10 and 1/2 char

Dad called from Wal-Mart out in the boonies. "Hey, they just got a box of these touch pad thingies here, they weren't expecting them... Ever hear of them? You want me to grab one for ya?"
Score.

Missed the boat...

Got a 32GB from Best Buy, and let me just say that Android cannot come soon enough. Holy hell I can see why this thing failed horrendously. Not gonna go into a full review, but damn. Love WebOS though.
As for those still looking, HP is supposed to have more coming in sometime this week. Apparently there will be a limit of 1 per customer so they shouldn't sell out instantly like last time, but if you aren't on the page within an hour or two of it going live they will probably be gone.

Kindle Fire being used LIVE during a DJ set :D

Just wanted to share what I do with my Kindle Fire thanks to you guys ​
What I've done to it:
-Installed TWRP
-Installed CyanogenMod (whatever the latest is)
-Downloaded, then extracted and edited TouchOSC for my custom midi mapping (Only worked for 1.2, 1.3 is having some errors with adding custom layouts)
-Ran the data from TouchOSC through Osculator then through Midi Patch Bay so I can send some midi data to my VJing friend
-Mapped it in Traktor Pro 2!

Hahaha, well I'm glad I was 110% prepared! I just really wanted to show what I use my kindle fire for, unlike some others that use it for reading and netflix. I really think I'm pushing the limit of DJing with a 200$ device instead of running the same app on a 500$ iPad.
Only thing is I wish I had more than 2 multitouch points!

You did good. I'm glad to see the Fire being used for something other than reading and surfing the web. Cool music by the way.

I like it!
Just one question, how did you edit TouchOSC for custom layouts?!

Very nice, man! You've got a nice bit of kit there supporting that fire, too . LPD8 and what looks like an MPD in the background. Much love for the Hercules, too. Touch OSC on my HTC Inspire is what got me through with my Launchpad till I could get a hold of a nanoKontrol2. Good to see other guys putting it to good use. Best of luck to you guys!

I used the guid found here, but you must have a copy of the 1.2 apk and notepad + +. Also a apk tool that will extract and repackage then sign. Best of luck! If you need any other help just ask!

So super geeky stuff going on. Also im using my htc as the overhead camera over me

Very nice! I'm not DJ, but out of curiosity, can you tell us what exactly you're using the Kindle for in this case as compared to the other tools? Changing songs or levels and stuff like that? Either way awesome stuff.

Yea! Pretty much i made a custom touchosc layout for my kindle to look and act just like traktor djing software. Then it sends osc data to an app on my mac called osculator that converts what i do on my kindle to midi for traktor.

Do you know of a Windows program that will do the same conversion? I do a lot of solo bass work and would love to be able to control Ableton or Reason with the Kindle. I am not sure how to sync up the MIDI output, it assigns to whatever it damn well pleases at this point and I can't find where to edit the MIDI channel send/recieves.

Yes! Check out midibridge by haxxor, and download version 1.3 of touchosc. But be warned that you cant have custom layouts

How did you get it connected? I've been trying to do the same with my Nook but ad-hoc isn't working and connecting via router is just as impossible...

This is really nice. Reminded me of a lot of songs I used to listen back in the 80's

Dude..hands down that was sick how did u map it to traktor? I mix w/ axis9 cd decks but been wanting to experiment with all digital.

New note man...haha. Any S pen Ideas

So i just got my note yesterday. Have not touched my transformer tablet since...lol. Thats a biggie considering i never put it down usually.
Anyway, i love the s pen amongst other things. I find myself using it quite a lot even just to navigate around and interacting with the general U.I.
I was wondering however...are there any other specific apps and games out there made for the s pen? I assume you guys would know. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks.

You have an app in the Drawer called S Choice. It will send you to Samsung Apps, but specifically to S-Pen apps. Hope I helped !

Idk I've been struggling to find uses for it. I've had my Note for 2 days now and I mostly like it. But the stylus just seems like an added bonus that isnt too integrated. The only thing I've been using it for is S Memo, which freezes up sometimes Any suggestions would be appreciated
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium

I really like Zen Brush.
It behaves like a caligraphy brush.
It's in the S-choice suite.
I also find the S-pen very useful for inputting calendar items.
Press and hold on your start time and draw down to the end time and release.
It automatically enters these in a new item.
Saves lots of time and sh#ts all over simple multitouch for speed and ease of use.

Really people? No one mentions "Draw Something". The S-Pen is PERFECT for this kind of game, and my friends are pissed at me when we're playing since i have a freaking pen to draw with

I have to say I am on my second week with my note and still no legitimate use for the s-pen.. I even got draw something and it still just doesn't help all that much with that app. I also havnt been happy with how I've had to restart my note 3 times today for various reasons
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Well after almost 2 weeks it seems my use of the s pen has gone down quite a bit. I only use it for specific games here and there.
Its a nice alternative and that's pretty much it I guess. I can't really draw well on paper let alone with the pen so that's a shame. But it is very responsive and accurate.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I actually use the s-pen quite a lot, especially at work to take notes. Very handy to have all my notes with me at all times and by tagging them and creating a folder structure it's easy to find them back.

+1 - the S Pen is great at work - i used to use a note pad all the times, but now i can take note on the, well, Note!
In my line of work i mark-up building drawings plans, where i used to carry around a A3 clipboard and paper copy of the plan. Not now, drawings to PDF and away i go on the phone! Very pleased. Once day i could even convice my boss to purchase a Note 10.1 for the very same reason....

Best facebook app for our tf101

Trying to figure out which one you guys feel is the best for our tf101. What do you think?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

I use friendcaster. It might not be perfect but this is much better than the official Facebook application. The official is very slow and is pretty useless in low network connectivity condition.
Gabriel

Since all of the browsers and apps are terribly glitchy for me, the best solution is using Splashtop HD to remote desktop my computer and view from there... Rather roundabout but it's fast and Doesn't Glitch!

I think there are three real tablet Facebook apps:
FaceDroid (paid app)
Friend Me
Friendcaster.
I'd say Friendcaster is the best one, gives you a very nice Facebook experience with all needed features and a nice UI, plus good widgets.

Definitely not the Facebook app! Too clunky

how is that facedroid app? I heard its pretty good as well. Anyone have any experience with it?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

I like facedroid,but I think that fbm is better . But with facedroid if you have a problem or find a bug and report it to the developer, he will E-mail you back within a couple of hours on how to fix your problem or within a week or so you will see an update that fixes that bug.So the great support is worth the money alone.But it does show those pesky game updates in the feed like anyone needs to see that jeff married his cousin on farm ville.Without the games in the feed it would be the best fb app in my opinion.

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium

I've never tried friendcaster,but the UI is pretty clean,and fbm has a nearly identical look to the official fb app with the ability to upload pics and post YouTube links and has notification,but it does not crash,and when you open it it just works....best part is when you turn it off it is off and does not use 30 to 50mb of ram all the time like official fb app.

Use the default facebook app or facebook website if you want to see all your friend's posts.
Use third-party apps if you don't mind missing posts, but like the customization.
Remember, third party apps can be blocked by your friends so they not only see your posts, but you don't see theirs either.
Unfortunately, the stock Facebook app is a memory hog, but it works.

Not only is it a memory hog but it kills sleep eating up your battery. So get your friends to allow 3rd party apps to see their posts.

I've been looking for one too that works 100%, I love the look of Friendcaster Pro and have been using it for 6+ months but it screws up a lot and either doesn't post my comments/status updates or when I try and load something it will be like "Friendcaster received an invalid response from Facebook". The notification Window annoys me on the official app because it's so tiny and only shows about three or four things, not to mention I still can't figure out how to share things from it. Is it even possible to do so?
I'll give Facedroid a try and see how it is.

Friendcaster is good.
Using Firefox beta (v14) with agent set as Desktop/ipad is also good enough. (Desktop-like interface)

Can this get any better? I think not.

What sort of printer do you have? I want to see Cloud Print hacked onto DD-WRT, which would enable a lot of people to easily print from any Android device, with almost any printer. My AP is my print server.

I am using Printer share from the market, It was free a couple months ago from the Amazon app store. But what makes it complete is the Google printing part.
I'm using several printers at work that are on the network. At home I am using my Epson Wi-Fi printer. Still it is amazing.

On another note, I don't think my phone has ever looked better either.

To add to the completeness.. there was also just released a Scan to Phone app, that is supposed to allow you to scan directly from your scanner to your phone
A trial version is available, that allows 10 scans to verify if your scanner works
Accusoft USB Scanner - Trial

i have a program called Camscanner that works quite well for that. Pretty much an office in my hand. :laugh:
