Before purchasing my N1, I saw a video of a Zeemote playing nice with Android promising full support 2 come. I've been hunting around and can't find any progress on this. I have my Zeemote working great with my TP2, thanks 2 a program I bought with a modified version 2 support WM. I searched the same site and only found Bluetooth keyboard support for Android. http://www.mymobilegear.com. Anybody heard anything?
Hi .. I just got a zeemote controller too but I only have 2 windows mobile devices. I've been looking for drivers desperately but havent found them yet. Can you please provide a link to the page where you purchased the wm modified drivers pls? I really want to pair my zeemote to my pocket pcs but havent been able to do so yet (no drivers). Pls help me
It is currently still in beta, but the developer is planning to release it to the market very soon. Both the zeemote and the bgp100 gamepads will work with it. I am a beta tester and can confirm that these bluetooth gamepads do in fact work with this software. The name for the beta software is "Gamepro" but not sure if he is planning to call it something else on the market. The website is correct, mymobilegear.com, look in "GamePad Driver Support Forums"
downloaded the drivers, they work great!
Thx for the info, I found the drivers that you mentioned (gamepro) and they work like a charm with the zeemote!! I will definitely purchase the full version of the drivers, since the beta keeps popping a reminder msg. Gaming on my HD2 just got a little bit more serious.. lol. Touchscreen is great but with the zeemote I can do a bit more hardcore gaming that i wasnt able to before (for ex in Megaman x (snes using morphgear) running and jumping while charging the laser..!)
As the healine reads I'm looking for an application to link the Tablet to my Windows 7 PC and use it as a drawing tablet.
Any one aware of an app that can do this?
I have searched the net, I did find something similar like 3 months back but I didn't save the link and can't remember what in the great pavement special I typed in.
Thanks for all the help.

I can't answer your question, but IMHO I wouldn't use the tab for this because the screen is not precise enough for drawing.
It is possible to remotely access your desktop on your tablet but I don't think you can use the pressure sensitive drawing abilities of tablet on your pc.
The easiest way is using sketchbook pro. Theres plenty of youtube videos on how awesome it is.
And adobe is releasing their new apps for tablets soon.
Hi,
I would like to use my tablet as a second monitor for my laptop (running on linux -> ubuntu).
I manage to use it a mirror screen trough VNC but this isn't what I'm looking for.
Are you aware of that kind of solution/app ?

Teamviewer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.teamviewer.market.mobile&hl=en
That maybe a possibility.
To act as a monitor it would have to take in a video signal, which the tablet only send out video. So no it wouldnt be possible unless you open the tablet and splice into the LCD connector on the motherboard.
maybe something like this it doesn't have the best reviews though, you might find something similar by somebody else on the market... the results will always depend on your network. I know splashtop is great at using your pc on your tablet, but it can't be used as a secondary display unless you trick your pc to think there is a second display somehow.
Thanks guys!
I'll give a try to teamViewer but this isn't really what I was looking for.
IDisplay doesn't have a server app for linux (windows and mac only )
Hi,
I have an Xperia Z2 tablet and I need to do a presentation of some software on the tablet to an audience.
Is there a way I can display the tablet screen on a PC (Windows)??
I tried teamviewer but it's pretty slow.
Someone suggest Mobizen (from play store) - but it's only for Samsung.
Suggestions?
Cheers,
Ian.
Apologies - wrong forum - have posted it on Troubleshooting forum. Can this be deleted?
You could use Chromecast. My PC monitors all have HDMI, so it works fine.
Droid vnc server or a similar app.
Hello Yoga Book XDA,
I'm looking to buy a YOGA BOOK when it's released but I have a few questions on my mind that we could maybe think about and find an answer to.
1. Do you think, given the fact that there is no hardware difference, we will see dual boot Win10 / Android through XDA developers community? I'm going to be extra excited if this is a future possibility.
2. How do you guys think the X5 Atom processor will fair? I currently have an i3 380UM laptop from 2011 - and the CPU passmark says the X5 is faster (scoring higher). So I guess it's an upgrade for me. The i3 380UM does basic Illustrator and Photoshop without much issues, so I'm very hopeful for the X5.
3. Is the 4G modem standard on the Android and Windows version? Or is it a separately priced model?
That's all for now! Perhaps other people can chime in with their questions and together we can get a Q/A thread going.
Just brought the Android version and tried different app. It's smooth and work great for movie, browsing.
Will try gaming later. Very very minor delay by using the pen, which is OK for me.
it'll be very interesting if it can be dual boot to Win/And
Have you found an alternative supplier for the paper pads?
@black818pro - How do you like the device? I am eyeing it when it's released in the US. Any chance to shoot a quick video review?
Can you use OneNote on Android to take notes on paper? Or is this limited to a lenovo app?
Hi,
I bought the Lenovo Yoga Book Android version WiFi only.
I want to set it up as a productive device (read: buy Android and try if I can do everything what I can do with Win), including MS Office, Google Docs, SSH Client for my Server Management and ez PDF Reader to read and annotate PDFs.
Drawing is not my use case.
Verdict after one week:
HW:
+ hardware is amazing, you can read in the internet
+ battery life is really good
+ keyboard is way better than expected, at least I can type on it quite good.
+ Annotating PDF in a new way: I activate the scratch pad, then I clsoe the small Lenovo Notes window. So I have the PDF on the screen and can annotate it via the still active scratch pad. This way, my hand does not get in the way of my information. Takes some getting used to, but works OK!
- it is not really possible to write directly on the screen, with Lenovos AnyPen technology, you won't have palm rejection on the screen
- the touchpad is not good. I use an external mouse anyway.
SW:
+ Android came a long way considering the use of mouse and keyboard. It really works good
+ Office suites both of Google and MS for Android get everything done that I neeed to do.
+ Switching between Pen and Keyboard mode works reliable.
- Pen in OneNote is lagging A.F.
Edit 13. October:
Actually, note taking in OneNote works perfectly fine, even with a lot of other programs running in the background. See post 16 of this thread. I just re-tested it on @ashwincr's request.

Thanks for the detailed post. I presume you can annotate Google docs and word in the way you describe?
I will check this later!
Hi, I can confirm that I can easily annotate in Word via the drawing tab. I have not found this functionality in Google Docs yet.

Thanks. Weird that Google docs doesn't respond though.
After using the Android version for a while, I dont like the Yoga Book in this configuration. I finally changed to Windows version and find it's more suitable with a keyboard like Yoga.

Can you please explain why the windows version is preferable for you? Is it a simple preference for windows over android through more familiarity with windows, or is it because the implementation of the software works better whilst using windows?

The Version with the 4G modem is a separate model. It has different model numbers
Without 4G (Android) : YB1-X90F

Thanks for the detailed review. So I assume the pen works but is laggy in One Note on Android. I plan on using this a lot for note taking with the pen on the notepad. As long as the notes are captured correctly in OneNote, I am not too concerned if it is laggy. My requirements are for my hand written notes to be captured correctly and later archived in OneNote. Do you think the Android version with One Note will work for this scenario?
ashwincr, I checked OneNote performance once again and found out that it works perfectly smooth.
I made a short screencast of it. I think your use case should be covered! BUY! (no I do not work for Lenovo)

Best chance at the moment is probably to unlock the bootloader, pull stock recovery and with those files port CWM recovery for this device. Then you should be able to flash unsigned files, e.g. SuperSU.
It's quite simple to unlock the bootloader using fastboot, porting CWM...well yeah....anybody out there whose capable???
