I hope this is the correct forum to ask these questions.
1: Can someone help me understand the lack of compatibility between the Transformer and a decent chunk of apps that seem to work just fine on other Android Tablets.
And
2: Does the Transformer Prime have these exact same issues?
Is Asus just using an unusual hardware setup that no other vendor is using or is the software just that borked?
The Transformer is an OK piece of hardware and I wouldn't mind upgrading to a prime or even a 700 when they release but if they will have (or already do have) the same issues I will be switching to another hardware company for my next Android tablet.
I am running stock Rom and just don't feel like going through the hassle of using one of the modded OS's unless they are just "that much better".
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.

What applications are you talking about specifically? Only ones I know of are gameloft games, but I figured out how to make them work by editing a few lines within the apk thanks to a guide I found awhile back.
Yes,
A list of the ones you want that are not working would be good..
While I do get the market telling me that there is a few that are not for the transformer..
I usually push them to my phone then transfer them over..and they work fine..
Also..as this is a Q/A.. refer to this post..

Sorry I forgot about operation Iron fist ( been a while since I have posted here I mainly lurk ). While Game loft games are an example there are others that are not games which made me decide to finally ask the question.

You should try getting the apk by other means if the market says its not compatible (like from your phone for ex.) If all else fails, you might have to 'edit' the apk like I did.

I'm planing to buy TF soon, and I can't wait to get it
I'm intrested in one thing I couldn't find anywhere: can i view 2 programs in the same time? Just like in windows. For example on the left side of screen I can write office doc, and on the right side I can PDF files?
No.........................................
But why hasn't anyone thought of doing this? this would be an awesome feature, and we have the real estate to work with in tablet land. Android limitations that can't be overcome even with root access?
Yes.. so if you want to copy something from pdf to your doc, you must constantly switch programs, it is a bit harder but I think google, or someone else would add this feature soon..

Planned release end of Q2 so pretty soon now
Public beta starts in agust
There's an app called OnSkreen which will be implemented directly into OEM rom's which will allow for multi window running of applications. Check out their YouTube videos. Cool stuff, but you'll basically have to buy a tablet with it on there from the start (none exist at the moment).

It's not an APP, it's a special ROM that the company will sell to manufacturers - you can't just install it to your device. The beta will "hopefully" offer this rom to certain devices, but there's no guarantee that our Transformers will get it.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
Ih hope that TF is getting it ;D
Is there any developer out there that have plans for making such an app for the phones as well?
I think that he/she would get donations from a lot of people if they started working on it. There are many programs that do not embed a widget option and if someone could make a widget that could scale down programs an ie put to running programs on the screen in vertical mode that would be soooooo niiiiiiice!! On my Galxy SII such an app would be perfect...
Anyone?
M
The thing is its not really an app but, like stated, a heavily customized OS. It goes back to how these mobile OS'es were devised. Its not windowed because they are assuming you are on a system that wouldn't perform well with multiple active apps and on a small screen where you would need all of the real estate.
There are times when I would wish for it but since apps are cached and not killed (if they are developed properly) its pretty easy to "alt-tab" back and forth between them when needed.

This for sure will be great on the TF. It will help alot of ppl improving there usability of the transformer for work related stuff.
Cant wait to try this on TF, if it ever gets to platform.
Has anyone gotten the game order and chaos to work on this tablet? It doesn't even seem to show up in the marketplace. If you got it to work, how so? It works on a prime with aokp installed.
if i recall it is a gameloft game, and most of them have been marked incompatible with the TF300, hopefully this will be fixed soon... There is a petition somewhere on this forum to try and get their attention
Maybe there is a way to fool the market and app into thinking the Asus is any compatible device. Used to do this on my Droid 1 through editing the build.prop. It would play games it said my phone wasn't compatible with by tricking the market into thinking it was a nexus. Hopefully there is a similar solution here for rooted users. I'm just not the one to find it.
I would be hesitant about editing build.prop until we have a working recovery system like clockworkmod, because if something goes wrong you'll end up bricking the device and it will be difficult to recover.
Hello guys,
someone has managed to bring order from chaos and on this device? The mine is currently in service .. you did the root and flashed new rom?
sorry for my English
Sorry for the double post consecutive .. some of you managed to boot order and chaos? thanks a lot
Order & Chaos is now officially supported on our tf300. As well as other gameloft games! Kudos to gameloft

Let me share some first :
1. I just found that the rom can't run NFS Shift smoothly, at least in the racing part but not in the menu part.
2. I can connect my home wifi with 72Mbps (it reports...) but no data transfer after few seconds.... I'm still checking if there is a fxxxxxx guy using wifikill targeted on mine phone...
My phone is ME865 using the China leaked rom.
These are perfect examples of why you should NOT run the leaked firmwares. We have been doing this for 7 months now, and I have seen 3 different firmwares released, and EVERYTIME we get leaks people want to run the latest firmware and have issues and want help because now they can't easily get back to the way their phone was before.
YOU WERE WARNED by all of the devs in here.
Let this be a lesson to EVERYONE else in the Atrix2 forum.
Now, I know these issues don't seem so bad, but there may be more things to uncover yet, that are not working correctly.
To all Atrix2 users who read this: DO NOT INSTALL THESE LEAKS!!!!
Us devs will figure out how to get the ICS updates to the correct phones with (hopefully) some fixes to the issues BEFORE they are released to the public, but you have to give us time to do so.
I will say this now:
If you PM me because you did this, or if you post asking for help because you did this, you will end up on my ignore list!
These leaks are not supposed to be run by end users, yeah you!!!

hey , don't be so angry...
To be honest , I think this leak is too far better than the 2.3.5/2.3.6 roms.
I have never got any problems of the Class 10 SD card problems now, which is the most important thing.
I seldom play games and I think that's exceptional one.
I'm not asking for help for this issue but I think sharing the problems will make benefits for all of whom may/had/wanna try the rom. Thanks for your very kind comment to all of us.

I am not angry, I also NEVER once said that YOU asked for help.
What I am doing is trying to get everyone to understand something here. Myself and the other devs that have been here for a while are getting very tired of seeing that someone had an issue, that they caused themselves because they installed an update that they were not supposed to, from cheesecake. I am trying to get everyone to listen to reason here, and your post about issues that YOU find from installing an unsupported update, was a perfect example to use.
You have to understand that us devs do this in our free time, and we give you all 100% free support. You tell me where else you get that from.
So We have to keep everyone here doing their thing with their phones, and it seems that the ONLY thing most people listen to anymore is a little kick in the pants.
If you took some offense to my post, well then you prolly deserve some of that...
My job as a dev in here, is keep everyone from screwing up their phones.
Just wait till I am not here anymore, or that I do decide to ignore your posts, or PMs...
I know EVERYONE is VERY excited about ICS, but come on guys it will be a month or less before the official stable release comes out.

It's ok. I can't agree you more. We get all of you devs free supports and all the works are great. Someone did ask for help because of the leaked roms and some others issues/threads/posts/questions you don't want to hear/see/read. I'm sorry for all of the impolite /bad feeling you feel.
Therefore, I won't talk about anything about the leaked roms in this sections from now on. If you want to , you may delete those old post which you think it may lead the problems. For the development section, if there is a mircale I found something it may help , I will translate/forward it as before.
and believe me , sticking a red color thread which prohibits something may help. It's not about the freedom of speech. Cheers.

I think you completely misunderstand me here.... I am just trying to keep others from doing something that they can not recover from (not everyone knows how to put their phone into fastboot and apply the fxz). You should post these things, and it is good that YOU put this here....
I am just trying to keep other users safe from themselves so to speak.
ICS will be here soon enough. I was just using your post with pre-release issues, as an example to others, and again the other people in this forum only seem to listen if is in DARK RED, and says WARNING WILL ROBINSON!!.
I have absolutely no hard feelings about you or anything in this place. I am just trying to keep everyone focused on what they should be focused on.

Wait a second.... you're telling me you're running the China leaked ROM on your AT&T phone?
I wouldn't mess with that mate.
Running a ROM that wasn't designed for you phone just seems like an accident/brick waiting to happen. Good luck though!
I know theres a thread about this game already but I didnt want to add to the thread as its for a leaked version. But the game is now available on the app market but I dont see it there yet. Is it the same for eveyone else? I can see it with my s3 and prime however.

This item is not compatible with your device.
So you won't see it if you access the playstore through the TF700.
I just side loaded it after I paid and downloaded it on the s3. Works pretty good but not silk smooth like it is on the nexus 10 or s3 though. I say l prime, and tf700 is about the same..slightly lower frame rate.

Do you guys think the game will ever be officially supported for the TF700T? I can't believe that it's supported on older devices but not this beast. It runs perfectly fine for me on my Transformer Infinity, when I create a local multiplayer match there is no graphic lag at all. During the campaign I ran into lag once in a while when there were lots of AI and graphic effects but the game always stayed at a playable frame rate. All of the issus I experienced weren't anything that couldn't be fixed with the slightest code optimizations as well. As far as some people had issues with the RAM running out, I had no issue like that whatsoever.

Got the game running - it runs pretty smooth, areas of intense combat lag it up a fair amount, but nothing i cant deal with i guess.
Some of the HUD buttons are missing from the screen e.g. sprint, ADS, fire, crouch etc. Any reasons why?
Also, and this is the big thing, sprint doesn't seem to work properly - as a result i cant sprint over obstacles and barricades, which means i can't progress on the first mission. Anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks in advance

There's a bug when its docked. You can't see some of the huds but still function. Just undock and they'll show up.
I think the sprinting is also due to the dock if I recall.

What you do is you find an .apk of the game and install that. You then get the TB files and put them into your TB folder where all the other backups are kept. Once that's done, you go into TB and 'restore' the app and data (might just be app, might just be data, cant quite remember). That should do the trick.
If it does not, then you probably need to get the SD data for the game and put it in the right place and then TB the game.
Once that's done you should be able to play it. Im pretty sure thats all the things you need.

Both .apk files and SD data files can be found, just make sure when you find those two (and the TB files possibly?) they all correspond to the same version of the .apk

I was able to download Modern Combat 4 from the Play store to my Viewsonic Gtab and it downloaded the extra files. Another member suggested I use SugarSync, it allows you to sync files between devices. But I have a problem, I can not find the files. I looked in /data and did not see any MC4 files. What do I look or and where do I find them, please. Thanks
Sorry can't remember the exact naming of it. Though I know many programs (games) don't seem to be on the market for our lovely tablet. Though there is this thing called a Nexus 7 that gets basically all the ones we don't. Would it be beneficial and not cause any other issues that is, to change the ID so the market place reads this as a Nexus 7?
Curious if anyone else has done this long term.
Dont know how to, someone else probably does, but just a warning:
The Nexus 7 has a 1280x800 resolution, which is almost half that of the Infinity. Meaning, even if you buy a game that *does* support Full-HD, you'll still be given the half-HD resolution, as that's what it thinks your device has.
The resolution is also the reason apps aren't available for the TF700. Lazy developers syndrome, it's called.

I think what is that you can get a lot of the unsupported apps through Amazon... Especially EA titles and they work fine. I think developers are unsure if they support it so they assume they didn't. Not sure it's being lazy as much as uninformed.

Not bothering to test or research counts as lazy Just ask any student.
And that's the thing indeed, most of the 'incompatible' apps and games work perfectly well. I'm running several dozen and haven't had a single issue. :fingers-crossed:

Exactly I got apps that do work...
Wild Blood is example of one of them. Though instead of using a crappy cracked or hacked version to get it to work properly I'd like to use it normally. Hence why I know you can modify the build.prop file (found the proper name finally) but curious if anyone has done it.
Nexus 7 is probably the closest to similar as it gets for tablets. Just curious if someones done it more on a long term basis. I'd just like to switch it once and forget about it basically.
I've tried this and it doesn't work. Google are clever and are working out the device from somewhere else.

Grr bloody hell. Thanks for that info sbdags.
Guess I'll be using my phone for the updated APK's still.
What always perplexed me was that running cm10.1 I get significantly more games showing up in the market. I tried playing with the build.prop but could never figure out what it was. May be worth looking into again. I

Likely the kernel is different. I suspect that has something to do with it.

I want to use this trick in my galaxy tab 2 p3113 by making it appear like the Nexus 7 tab. But I do not know what the values are for the Nexus 7 tab!!
