Google Talk sucks!

Any way to fix this? The video is so choppy even with great connection on both sides and i can barely understand the audio. Am i the only one experiencing this? If not, is there a better alternative for video chat?

I just did it once to test it out with someone on a MacBook pro and it was pretty clear and smooth.. maybe cuz we were on the same network?

if possible, try it with 2 transformers. i also tried it running on the same network (15 mbps / 2 mbps) and it's still horrible.

I don't like how there's no SMS and texting support

i just tried it between a d1 Bluetooth tethering to the transformer and my other d1 at home on 3g. Everything smooth.

In Google Talk? Use Google Voice then.

Used google talk and google voice with my transformer and someone else xoom on another network, everything smooth....

I tried across town connected to a win 7 laptop. Was better than acceptable.

SMS Sync vs. My SMS Sync

I'm actually coding my own SMS Sync App.
I'm still waiting for my Transformer but I want to be able to send SMS right away - and to receive them on my Transformer too.
So what is different to the SMS Sync app? Actually, it's like a backup app. SMS's are getting backuped to my server. and the transformer is "recovering" them from the server. Same the other way: Send the sms from the Transformer in => SMS's will be sent from the other Android device.
The big difference to the SMS Sync App is: Everything is happening in the Transformer SMS Application! And it's super-fast, as it's working using a direct connection to my server, not using Dropbox. And it's backuped there in a Database, so whenever I'm doing a hardreset, the SMS's are getting recovered ultrafast.
It's still in beta, and I'm not sure if it will hit public, but it's just rocking on my 2 Android devices I have. But as said - Still waiting for the Transformer...
I'm very busy atm, so I'm coding it to work for my devices only. If there is a bigger resonance, I might go public. Biggest problem would be server-side. running it on my servers would be possible but then everything should be encrypted on the devices. Or, I could too use a Dropbox-approach where the data will be in your dropbox account (and on dropbox's servers, not mine), but that's not really a fast solution.

Sounds cool. Hit me with an IM if you would like a tester.

This sound sick. This is one of the main features I really wanted from the transfomer so I hope you get it done. I was interested in the otehr SMS app but did not really think using drop box to store them first was the most convient way to do so.
So if you need any tester, I'm here for you.

Ya let me know would be happy to test sounds awesome

Now working 100% manuallly. Just have to build a service and boing - I'm done
And my transformer will be here on Monday, can't wait to test it on the transformer! Yeah!

Sounds great! I'm happy to help test anything for you, PM me if you want anything!
EDIT: I have my own server too

Awesome. I am having some delivery issues with SMS sync. Would love to be involved in the testing! I'm in if you need me

My Transformer should finally come tomorrow, so I will then try it on the transformer.
(tried it on 2 2.X-Android devices and on the 3.0 and 3.1-Emulator with success)

Any more news on this bad boy??
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

Actually yes. The system is working... except for that there is no SMS app on the transformer
I've now used Handcent SMS and the SMS are correctly restored and viewable on the transformer (as it is using the same, system database).
Sending isnt working yet. My approach is to intercept the sms as soon as it is queued in the system database, but handcent is queuing in their own app.
I'm thus looking on a way to install the standard SMS app on the transformer. But my time is limited at the moment...
Any ideas?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

The stock one is open source, you could mess with that.

What about Go sms ?? Do they do it the same as Handcent??
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

anymore news did you try go sms?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

I might not know what I'm talking about, but as pointed out: the stock one is open source. Otherwise one could simply take stock SMS application and then push it with adb to the transformer. I, however, have no idea how it will react, if certain libraries are needed...
What the hell, I can test it. Bbl.
Edit: Didn't try it since I got my hands on SyncSMS which works as I like it to. Sorry.

So anything still going on with this our is it dead?

Try using Titanium backup to send the SMS app backup to your tablet and restore it there.

An app to send/receive text messages from my phone on my tablet

I don't want to have to pull out my phone every two minutes to send/read a text message while using my tablet. I used Airdroid on my computer to read and send text messages on my phone, but it doesn't work on the tablet. Anyone know of an app to do this?

I'm using Tablet Talk:

So how much battery does it actually drain while constantly listening over BT or WiFi?

Preferably something free. I don't care if I have to be on the same wifi network, that's how Airdroid works

As far as I know, there are no free options that sync between your two devices (i.e., they take care not to screw up your conversation list).

So does SyncSMS work pretty good? Thinking about trying it but don't want to buy unless it really is worth the $3.00

MySMS is a pretty handy app which i use regularly on my tab, pc and phone.
The UI doesn't seem to be as fluid on the tab as it does on the pc and phone though (even with hardware acceleration turned on in MySMS settings).

I've always used Google Voice.
Pro: Free txt and calling (in US)
A spare phone number.
Gmail email notification & copy of txt
Con: No sync with phone

what do you mean? The messages i get on my phone using gv, show up on my tablet as well. If someone calls my phone and leaves a message, the notification pops up on my tablet as well. Is that what you mean? Every message i send and receive using GV, shows up on both devices.

I should have explained a little further.
I use my Google Voice number to txt from a PC or my Tab 8.9 and do not use GV on my cell. I haven't linked the two numbers yet.
Due to a current medical condition I can't talk, thus the various work arounds for emailing & texting.

Oh great, i wish to test SyncSMS with my TF700 and my Galaxy Note.
For Whatsap, there is also a solution ?

MySMS works, I'm not a huge fan of how exactly it works, but it does work. I'll keep using it and see if I really like it or not.

Awesome, free app for sms and mms from tablet

Hey folks, I stumbled upon a fantastic app that I wanted to share. It's called mighty text, it's free and it works great. You have to download the client on both your phone and tablet devices, register through your Gmail and then you can start sending and receiving texts and picture messages using your regular phone number. I've seen similar apps but they all require Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity this does not. Sorry I don't have a link but if you go over to the play store and type in mighty text you'll find it

Love it too! Phone stays in kitchen or bedroom while I am out on the deck or the family room with the tablet. This allows me to keep my phone in the charger when I'm home. I also added text to voice reader so when the tablet isn't open, it will still read all of my incoming texts to me.

Polaris Office 5 for TF101

I use my transformer everyday, as a replacement for a laptop. However, all the word processing applications have not met my standards. I tried Polaris Office on my friends Galaxy Note 10.1, and I loved it. When I downloaded it and installed it on my TF101, it forced closed when I tried to open their sample document. Is there any way to get Polaris Office 5 to work on the TF101? I can provide logs of the problem, but am not knowledgable enough to solve this mysellf.

Thanks for trying. Is there anyway to remove the restriction, because I have heard that it is restricted to Samsung devices only.

Kingsoft office
I was a fan of Polaris until Iused Kingsoft office. I found it is the most compatible suite with MS office :good:

Office suite is the best for me. Unfortunately it's not cheap but luckily I got it from amazon free app of the day a while agk
Accidentally tapatalked from my iPod touch

Best Free Office Program is Kingsoft Office!
