There are plenty of apps that let you control your PC with your android phone/tablet, but is there something that lets you control your tablet with a PC keyboard/mouse?
I was smart enough to buy the EEE pad TF101 without the dock, and ASUS was so smart that they put the USB in on the dock.. (Anyone want to trade ? )
I found this http://www.xda-developers.com/android/use-your-pc-as-your-android-keyboard-with-pcbtkeyboard/ but it requires bluetooth which my desktop doesn't have.
Any tips? Thanks in advance.
have you tried using BT dongle on your desktop ?

I'd like to figure out how to connect my Yamaha MIDI keyboard to my Asus tf101 tablet for recording via hardwired USB.
I've scoured the web looking for an app or solution to this and have come up generally blank, I've tried all the free midi controller apps, but they only seem to support Wifi or Bluetooth, which my keyboard is unable to do.
I'd like to eliminate my computer as a middleman (If I'm at my computer I'd just use that) and be able to use my tablet to record on the go!
Any ideas/thoughts/help/wisdom/proverbs/ninjas would be greatly appreciated
Device Info:
ASUS Transformer tf101 running
ICS 4.0.3 Rooted
I have the dock with 2 USB 2.0 ports that I am connecting to the connecter with.
Cable:
Amazon: USB MIDI Input Output Cable Converter PC Notebook
Works fine on computer and no issues so far via usb.
Thanks!
Bump
Can anyone help me?
I have a spare asus eee PC that I have booted itch android. My question is does anyone know if I hooked up an external VGA monitor with USB touch screen output if it would work like a giant android tablet. (I'm thinking of a wall mounted application). Please let me know if this is possible or if it has been done.
Hi Folks:
With the arrival of XBMC for Android I'm eagerly putting it to the test on my TF700. The only thing I lack is a decent remote control. I have a Mediagate WMC Remote Control (it uses a USB dongle)...if I plug it into Ubuntu, it is automatically recognized and works out of the box. If I plug it into my Boxee Box, it gets automatically recognized as well.
However when I plug it into my TF700 USB port on the dock, no luck. The device appears to be well supported even under Linux...does anyone have any thoughts on how to get it to work with Android?
For what it's worth my cordless trackball works with the TF700 (it also uses a USB dongle) just fine. It can pass for an awkward "remote" but I'd rather a proper remote control.

SO, I have a really complicated setup for my computer, and whenever I need to print something, things become jumbled up and havoc occurs. I'm wondering if there are any printing apps on the market that utilizes the Transformer's ability to have a USB port due to its keyboard. I've searched around and most of the apps seem to require cloud, but my printer is not wireless nor does it connect to my router for some odd reason. Does anyone know of any apps in which I can simply connect the USB cable to the keyboard and print?
I doubt that you'll find an app, since a tablet does not have the drivers to operate the printer.
Neither can you install those.
Printers are cheap - get a WiFi ready one. Most manufacturers have print apps for tablets, there's Google Print, lots of options with WiFi.

Sorry for my English
I realize that the question is a little "convoluted" and hope to be in the right section.
I have an old tablet Acer Iconia tab a100 I wanted to connect to my TV via HDMI and to whom I wanted to connect a joypad to play.
However, the very old Acer does not have OTG and I do not have an Bluetooth controller (I have a Logitech dual action, a PS2 pad with USB adapter and wireless xbox360 controller with the adapter).
Now I tried to use my s3neo as pad through the app BT controller, but not everything works with all apps and still is inconvenient because I have not the sensitivity of the controller (in the sense I do not see what I touch when I watch TV) .
I floated the idea of linking one of my pad via OTG all'S3neo and use it as a "bridge" for the tablet via Bluetooth (I do not have wi fi).
I try with 360 pads but does not work (not pairing while on pc work and do not understand why)
The Logitech Dual Action is recognized, however, creates a problem: Some keys are associated with functions that can not be removed (for example by pressing the appropriate button of the triangle comes to my home and is therefore not usable in game)
The ps2 pad is however recognized the right analog is completely busted.
I tried with tincore keymapper but I have serious difficulties.
Thanks in advance!
