I get Zinio going on my Transformer, and my iPad 2 might be destined for eBay.
I tried reading a magazine through the browser on Zinio's site, and that was just an exercise in frustration.
I've found some directions on how to load the app from another device, but has any Transformer user tried it? How was your experience?
P.S. Zinio, if your app is out for other Android devices, release it already!

I tried with no success to install Zinio.
It is available for other android devices and works with some (some got it working on the xoom) but it seems like its a no go for this tablet.
If someone does get it working that'd be awesome.

I got Zino to run on my transformer. Do a search for Zino in the Xoom forums & install the 3 apks to get it to work. I'm at work so I can't remember which 3 files they are but I will let you know when I'm home tonight. It work's beautifully, I'm starting to get tempted to renew my mag subs now.
Check the application forum for zinio thread. I couldn't get the ones linked in Xoom thread, but that one worked.

Thanks guys! You're awesome!
It installed and seems to work pretty good!
Only bad thing is it seems to have a small selection of magazines. (No National Geographic, etc.)
P.S. Zinio, give me Playboy, you prudes!

I remember receiving a free National Geo mag last year & did you turn on/off Adult content on your zinio account? you have to login on their website though. I thought Playboy was on there already or was it Penthouse.
Hmm... I'll double check the National Geographic. As for Playboy, I see it on their site just not under the app.
Gameloft just released Order and Chaos online for Android and I was wondering if anyone has tried it for Transformer yet?
I just searched for it on the Google and Amazon markets and didn't see it.

Market link: Order & Chaos Online
it starts then it says:
"your device is not compatible, please request a refund"
edit: just found a tegra 2 version. going to try it out.
Nope, not working. Someone said it works on the Acer Iconia A500.
Dude, you have to report if you got it working ! that looks like awesomeness =)
Maybe someone could try editing their build.prop to make it work? I purchased it on the market and it works on my Captivate. I saw a thread on the gameloft forums where it is working on Gtablets. I installed it on my Transformer but get the error message that it isn't compatible even though I downloaded the tegra 2 resource files and put them where they need to go. If a simple build.prop change could fix this that would be fantastic. I'm not rooted and left the cable at work so I can't root to try it. However if anyone rooted gets it working I will definitely be rooting. I was hoping that after purchasing it on my phone it would show up on my Transformer under uninstalled purchased apps but no go

no go. Tried the build prop from lg optimus and acer iconia tab. stil says device not compatible. I dont get why gameloft wouldnt make an effort to have this tablet ready on launch.I guess its honeycomb. Im so disappointed. I doubt they wil ever add tablet support. They are pretty lame with updates
oh how I want a fix for this. Until then I'll use my thunderbolt but this would be so much better on a 10.1 inch screen
There is an "AllDevices" version now available which install, updates and runs to a point.
I managed to create a new character and accept the first quest before getting a FC.
Haven't tried further so far but going to give it another go.
The screen doesn't seem to quite fit, a small portion appears to be lost at the top.
Managed to complete a few more quests before the next FC.
FPS looks sparodic and like I said the screen isn't quite right, some text missing from top of pop up windows etc, buttons take a couple of presses to register sometimes but all in all looks a good game and quite playable without the FCs.
nice, did a search for "all devices version" loaded my char up and I've had no isuues so far
What rom/kernal/version of honeycomb are you using? I installed it and it force closes after about a minute in in game

How do you get the all devices version or tegra2 version or whatever, should I just buy from the market? Wanna try this out
I can't manage to get this to run without force closing after a few minutes. Ice it doesn't force close for you?

Not working (well) for me either on gt10.1. Rooted just so I could edit the build.prop, but none of them seem any better. Top ΒΌ of the screen is cut off and force closes after a few minutes. I got the the backend files from - mobile phone talk dot com.

Yes, its working on mine (Rooted, with Stock 3.1 ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154492).
Google for "all devices version" made by a guy called Alelug, and dont forget to purchase the game via a compatible device
Here is my guide on how to launch this game on Transformer
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159975
Hulu Plus is available for Transformer on Google Play.
Yay!
Does it have titles that are only available on the Web? (I tried out the app on XBOX and it was ridiculous to pay for a service only to have a lot of the titles available by web only).
The only one I have in my queue that is web only is How I Meet Your Mother. It says it is web only so it looks like they are still blocking certain shows.
So is it working for you guys? I can browse but getting an error when I try to play a show. DRM Engine not supported on this device. I have Codename Android ROM installed. The old hacked app worked fine but the new one definitely looks better.
Yes. I am on rooted stock rom.
And then disables HDMI out on said tablets

Response from Hulu - HDMI Output Disabled
Michael K., Mar 30 10:28 am (PDT):
Hi,
Thanks for writing in and sorry for the confusion. Currently we are unable to support the HDMI out feature on the ASUS eee Pad Transformer due to content licensing reasons. We're actively looking into freeing up these rights and hopefully we'll be able to offer it in the near future. In any case, I'm sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime.
If there's anything else you'd like addressed, please be sure to let me know.
Thanks,

Typical canned response I got after I asked about the HDMI output being disabled.

No settings that I'm aware of for HDMI. I just plug it into my TV and change the TV input. Can view anything that is displayed on the screen.
Has anyone got this working yet on a rooted device?
Sorry if a solution has already been found but this works as well. The tegra 3 splashtop app is amazing. I'm on my home network and it works perfectly. So I just use the web version of hulu and it supports fullscreen. Don't know how well it would work on wifi discovery. But at least, if you are at home and want to watch through hdmi it works great
I could not find this discussed for the TF700T.
Video and audio sync perfectly with the YouTube and Netflix apps. However, I'm an Amazon Prime member and watch alot of Prime Instant videos. Since there is no android app for that I'm limited to watching through a browser. I've tried Boat, the Stock browser, and ICS+. All present a significant lag of video vs. audio. Oddly, I did not have this problem with the Prime I returned for the Infinity.
Anyone else experiencing this? If you were you able to correct it, how?
Thanks
Nobody Has This Issue?
Over two hundred views and no one replies? Really?
You could try browser2ram.
Rooting and installing it has helped me with just about all my browser problems.
Thanks, but I am rooted and browser2ram hasn't helped.
Maybe the issue is on the Amazon server side.
People here don't reply if they don't have anything useful to say.
Wait a few days and see how Jelly Bean handles it?
Other than that, do you have Performance Mode enabled when watching them? Killed all pointless tasks? (Not just in taskmanager.)
After I rooted the device I froze/disabled all the bloatware. I've tried all three performance modes with no change in the video lag.
Does anyone successfully stream Amazon Instant Videos through a browser on their Infinity?
I just checked and i don't have noticeable sync problems. I'm running on 12 meg dsl. My understanding is you need at least 4. Meg to stream good quality. Apps like netflix go through special servers, that help with stream, browser probably doesn't. You cannot really compare. it amazes how low a bandwidth netflix can uses and still look reasonably good.

I just swapped my prime for and infinity last night at Best Buy and Im having the same problem. Amazon prime streaming doesnt sync correctly and Im ticked. What is up with asus? My prime worked perfect even with crappy wifi reception. Can this be fixed. Can someone else check Amazon streaming you can try it for free. I need to know if this is just a few bad tf700 and I need to swap or try something else.

Were your tests based on Amazon Instant Videos?
I have had good results with Amazon Prime using Dolphin Browser; all others I tried did poorly with synch and/or stability.

Just tried it myself and also have the audio lag in the default stock browser using browser2ram. Tried using Dolphin beta, which is usually pretty awesome and pretty damned close to the stock browser using browser2ram in terms of speed and it got hung up going into full screen mode. Flash is so god damned terrible on these devices, flash in general runs like champ on my S III. Very frustrating
Replace It, or Live With It?
Thank you all for the feedback.
Apparently this is not a ubiquitous Infinity issue. Therefore I must conclude something is F**'d on mine. Not knowing whether it is H/W or S/W related I think I'll wait until JB is released and replace the tablet if JB does not fix it. I still have a couple of weeks left on my 30 day return policy.
Again, thank you for the help.
UPDATE: Fixed?
Update: I may have found a fix for this. I was browsing the forum and under the GMAIL Crashes post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877292&page=2 I found a reference to FMR Memory Cleaner and the nvidia kernel driver bug. I installed FMR Memory cleaner and brought up the ICS+ browser. Lo and behold the video and audio are in sync with my Amazon Instant Videos!
It would be helpful if some of you who are experiencing the lag issue will test using FMR Memory Cleaner and post your results.
Thank zenaxe for the tip (I've used up my 8 per day "Thanks").
I've tried FMR memory cleaner and it did nothing to alleviate the audio lag on Amazon videos, I haven't read the thread on the nvidia driver bug but when mine is crashing in a game like Dead Trigger, the ONLY thing that works for me is a complete reboot which is annoying. FMR hasn't really ever helped me with most things except if the tab is being laggy and even then it's not 100% guaranteed to work for me
I've had the sync problem intermittently with flash video from several sources, including Amazon. I think mobile flash is the true culprit, and wouldn't be surprised if the problem recurs for you. Every now and then I try and different browser and think it works better, but eventually, it gets out of sync again.
On the Amazon front, I think the only real solution is the Instant Video App. To my knowledge, no one has either the old gingerbread app or the new ICS app ripped from the fire roms working on other ICS+ devices. Hopefully Amazon gets around to supporting Android in general.

I also had this problem on the Xoom and over on the Motorola forum the culprit pointed to there was Adobe Flash on ICS and Jelly Bean (worked great on HC) on certain processors.
As to Amazon porting their app to Android, I wouldn't hold my breath as my guess is that they don't want to draw business away from the Fire line (I have a Fire and Prime looks great on it). Amazon's Kindle app for Android (even on the Fire) lacks functionality that the original Kindle devices support, e.g., collections. It appears that either their Android development capabilities are limited or they are making a conscious decision not to fully embrace it.
Dave
ps There is a similar thread over on the Themes & Apps Forum -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803002 On that thread I posted some info on the flash problem that I gleaned from the Motorola Xoom forum.
IMO, it's just a matter of time before the port hits. Fires are meant to sell content, content isn't meant to sell Fires, which aren't exactly high margin if the hardware is profitable at all.
If they were really trying to avoid drawing business away from the fire, they wouldn't have released an iPad app. Hit up their support page and complain, and I think we'll see progress eventually.
I had the amazon apk working on one of the roms on my nook tablet. Changed rom and lost program compatibility. I don't why Amazon does not have app for other androids but they are certainly making the decision not to. I'm hoping when large Fire HD comes out it will work on other devices. Its nice what Fire does for many. Pretty much everything's done in background, my wife doesn't have to do anything, streaming prime is easy.

Just worked it out today. And only found out when things from my pc started to pop up on my phone and note. Then sent back. If a dummy like me can do that anyone should be capable.
I got the dongle a couple of weeks ago. Most of the time it links up easy, sometimes it's a bear. You have to follow the instructions to the letter to get it to work. If it doesn't link up, unplug it from power and HDMI and let it sit a few minutes. Then try again following the instructions precisely.
It works pretty well when linked up. The video and audio are about 400 ms out of sync unless you use the stock video player. It must automatically correct for the lag. So yeah, Netflix and similar services play with the audio out of sync. Also, audio does not play unless it is part of a video stream. I had planned to use it to play music through my AV receiver, but no such luck. Too bad, it would be a killer app for that.

Really. I wonder why mine isn't syncing? Maybe it's the actual content. Could you tell me what specific show you've played on Netflix that played in sync? Also, do you know what version of Netflix you have? What model Note you have and what Rom? I'm using an 8013 with the latest stock rom... One other thing, could you try playing "Rules Of Engagement" and seeing how that works? Maybe a link to modded Hulu?
Thanks!!! Maybe we can work out what's going on.
I watch dirty jobs and South park all the time, I haven't had time to get to rules of engagement though
it's worked on stock rooted 8013, and lately I've been on redemption by pimpmaneaton
Yep, I'm using one at home and one at work... bought 1/2 price with the coupon.
