Splashtop Asus app drawer shortcut - Asus Transformer TF700

How do I get the shortcut in the app drawer with having to go into mycloud?
Or is it even worth it, and just install the current market version splashtop?

One thing to remember - with the current Free version of Splashtop 2, they started charging a monthly fee to connect "over the internet". So if you use that feature and don't want to start paying for it, stick with the original Splashtop version....

Say what?! What does that mean..."connect over the internet"? I've been using the mycloud for the past 3 weeks, have't got any notifications of a charge. Is this going to kick in when I lest expect it?

No, you are fine as long as you are using the "MyCloud" version. When they released Splashtop V2, they started charging a monthly fee for the ability to connect to a machine "over the internet" (you can actually use Splashtop to remotely control another PC over the internet) - that same function is available for free in the "MyCloud" version and all of the V1 versions.

I found the Splashtop HD v 1.9.8.4 and am using this one. The one in mycloud is HD version 1.0.?.? The latest non version 2 is 1.9.9.8 I think. I removed the Asus version since it was older and no direct link in the app drawer.

I've tried v 1.9.8.4 and the HD display on the TF700 is too small for me.
Seems like the lose of a lot of display space on the tablet.
I've played with the display settings & only the computer I was linking to changed.

Actually there is a way to cheat the whole internet connection thing, as opposed to same Wi-Fi network. I did this with my htc sensation, but it doesn't matter which phone you use as long as it has vpn and Wi-Fi hotspot. I have my router at home which has built in vpn with dd-wrt, but you can set this up with any of your computer's, you just have to make sure you are port forwarded properly. You can setup an incoming vpn connection using Windows 7, as its built-in is quit easy to use. Once you are setup with vpn ,connect to your home network 1st, then connect to your phone's Wi-Fi hotspot, then connect with splash. Splash will see the rest of your home network because of the vpn connection, and will connect no problem.
I'm out of town till Friday but if ne one needs help with this, i can put up more detailed instructions, this is probably not for the inexperienced.

I agree to a point, i already had vpn setup, so it was easy for me. The vpn is actually pretty easy to setup and once done, you will not have to do it again.

So I should ask, what are the key differences between V1 and the later versions? Not much beats Free access, but if the features in later versions are that much better, I've got to consider the options

I just bought Splashtop from the google market. Problem solved.

EDIT:
I found it in the settings of splashtop but not many choices. One thing I noticed is the "Asus" version does fit to screen better than the market version. But neither really fill the screen

Netflix Fix For Canadians

Hey folks just wanted to post that I found a solution to getting Canadian Netflix to work on the TF.
Install muffins patch from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15904091
Then follow these steps:
1. Get a US proxy or Vpn. There are plenty of free trial ones out there.
2. Connect to proxy and open Netflix with your account.
3. Test a video. It should work now.
4. Disconnect proxy and restart. It will now work without the proxy.
5. Thank Muffin for the patch.
Sent from my Transformer TF101
Did,it worked for you whit the app and what proxy server are you using?
Sent from Cybertron!
Yes it works with the app. I used proxydroid to connect and just Googled free proxy trial for the proxy I used. Any proxy or VPN with a US IP should work.
Sent from my Transformer TF101
Is there a way to get this to work without rooting the tablet?
I have a rooted android phone and I was wondering if I can run all the apps/proxy server through the phone, and then tether the tablet to my phone to run netflix for the first time...any idea if this would work?
I don't think its possible without root. You need root to install muffins patch at the very least. Rooting is easy and easily undone if necessary.

That's because the sgs2is supported by Netflix and the transformer is not. The apk that was posted in mistamuffins thread was from the lenevo version which is currently only available in the states

Can you tell the settings you used for Proxydroid because when I did it I couldn't connect to the internet once I connected to the proxy.
Thanks.
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
Im with the rest of the people on this cant quite get it to work the way i thought it should. Problems being that either the proxy has no host name and so from what i have read it is therefore the same as the intranet address. When entering that you just don't get internet access. Or the proxy you do get working only works for the browser and all other applications dont see it
If you're using proxydroid make sure to enable global proxy. That will make all apps use the proxy. Alternatively you can use a VPN and set it up in the tf settings. If you are using free proxys or vpns you probably will encore problems. Find one with a free trial or get a friend in the US to set one up for ya if you don't want to pay.

Questions, please help

1. How does one connect the transformer to a HDTV? Is the appropriate equipment in the box?
2. How does one Swype on the UK version of the Asus keyboard?
3. How do I change the speed of animations?
4. Is there a keyboard shortcut for the multitasking button?
5. How do I speed up internet?
Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

I can try to answer some of these for you.
1) You need an HDMI cable with one end as a micro hdmi. It does not come with it. Heres the one I use.
2) Go the to the main swype beta home page with your tablet (in tablet mode), it wont work if you have it in desktop mode. Sign up for the beta and download beta.
3) I dont think you can. If your getting lag use the Asus Task Manager widget to kill background apps. There really shouldnt be any lag though. This is one of the smoothest tabs Ive ever used.
4) ??
5) If your internet seems slow I doubt its the tablet. More likely your router, or internet type. I get almost 35mb/ second with mine.
Hope that helps.
Thanks a lot, you did help.
1. Does anyone know how tablet remote works?
2. Would you recommend that one buys Norton tablet anti virus for £50? What does it offer that the free ones don't?
Thanks

You can use right alt+tab for multitasking on the keyboard
You can swype on the main asus keyboard without downloading the swype beta. Im using perfect keyboard from the market however and i prefer it to the stock one as it is split so you can use it with your thumbs
Animations cant be sped up in the stock ROM, but I think the modified buildprop posted in the DEV section increases them slightly (correct me if wrong). On my phone I was able to increase the transition animation speeds using an app called "spare parts" so you may want to check that out
Internet should be fast. Ive noticed its actually faster than my laptop. If by speeding up the speed of connection TO the wifi hotspot, again try using the modified build.prop as that has some tweaks in it.
About antivirus, I wouldnt bother with it. It just slows the tablet and I think its unnecessary unless you are really lack confidence with technology. The same principles apply for the using PCs - if you dont trust something you downloaded off the internet, or from an email, dont open it! I have been without antivirus for years on my home PCs and phones and have never had a problem because I know what im doing. I would suspect that the main reason for antivirus on android is just for the companies to make a load of cash by scaremongering.

great help welcome..
As a first time tablet user (3 days), i am actually disappointed with the performance of TF300T compare to my wife's ipad 2. To make it worst, she think i make the wrong choice for not choosing apple... Until i arrive to this forum specifically to the topic below ..
TF-300 Minor tweaks and Speed increase(ROOT REQUIRED)
I think i can gain some respect if i follow the topic but....
In the topic, there are so many term that is only suitable for experienced user which leave me (blob, su, ww, etc ). From the topics, it is said, i can do the 'tweak' without rooting (which i dont really know how to do it) but using adb push (which i dont even know the meaning of it) to make it work.
The only thing is comprehensible for a newbie or noob like me is the result. I can make my tablet better than what i have now.
So, if there are any expert that can help me with the topics, please let me know. Any help will be very much appreciated.
As of why i post this here,
i prefer it to the stock one as it is split so you can use it with your thumbs
What did you mean by that dear Sir. I can split my keyboard like ipad keyboard do?
Thanks again. It is my first post in such a forum and english is not my first language.

What do you want to open it with? If it's a newer powerpoint file, like a pptx (office 2010), it may not play nice with a lot of office suites on Android.

Splashtop 2 is free on the market right now. The included splashtop doesn't have good mouse support, but the newer versions on play do. I dont have any way to connect my mouse at the moment to test it though. Setting the right button behavior as I mentioned earlier is a must though, because android registers right click as back by default.

For some reason it doesn't work all of the time. It works for me in Windows, but not in a lot of games. And in those games where it does not work, the game is mostly unplayable with Splashtop HD.

It is free but requires a $2.99 a month subscription as an in-app purchase to unlock most of the functionality (at least 3G/4G RDP and more). There is a ton of drama atm with them giving this subscription free for life to all current iPhone users who bought a previous version, but only giving Android users 1 free month.

Oh wow I didn't realize that. At least the THD I bought before 2 came out was only a one time payment. But THD hasn't seen much development love either. It doesn't have many resolution settings (unless you use database hacks). I would definately stay away from them for now.
I really like 2x Client. It's free.
Logmein ignition for use when not docked or not using a BT mouse, Jump Desktop otherwise!
I got Splashtop 2 and my right clicks work now in all my apps. Teamviewer was pretty awkward to use and quite sluggish considering it reduced the screen resolution quite a bit. For now Splashtop 2 works fine over my home network. We'll see if I need it beyond there.

It also shows a very weak signal when its trying to connect even though the phone is next to my tablet. When its not trying to connect it shows a very strong signal.
Any suggestions?

When I tether my Tf700 to my SGS2, it will take a little while for the WiFi icon to turn blue. Mind you, the icon turning blue is not a representation of the connection having been established per se, but it signals having a (syncing) connection to Google's servers. Sometimes, I can browse the web and download all kinds of stuff while the icon is still green. After a while (and mostly after a crapload of mails and Whatsapp messages and the like have come in), the icon (finally) turns blue.

Did you make it discoverable on both devices? Try connecting after that. You should try tethering using BT. Saves more on battery for your phone.

Question on tethering or quick tether.

Hi,
Wasn't quite sure where to put the question so mods, feel free to move.
So I use Bluetooth tether to connect my TF700T to my HTC One X and this works really well. The only drawback is having to keep going into settings to connect.
I would like a widget on the home screen where I can just click to connect. I have tried a few from Play Store but I can't seem to get any to work.
I currently have Smart Bluetooth Widget but each time I try connecting it fails.
Anyone know of any others that actually work?
Thanks.

This doesn't answer your specific question, but I personally use an app called Open Garden - allows for fully automated bluetooth tethering. If you tablet needs an internet connection and one doesn't exist, it will automatically tether to your phone via bluetooth using the Open Garden apps. Works really well...

Hi jtrosky,
Sorry for late reply and thanks for the info.
I tried OG a few days ago and couldn't get the devices to connect. Found some advice on the OG forum to leave the app running for a few hours and they should connect. I did this and the forgot about it. Then tonight, out of the blue I get a notification and when I looked it was OG connected.
I've been playing around turning BT on and off and restarting devices and still find they take ages to connect. I know there is a connection button in the OG app to force the connection but I may as well connect in Bluetooth settings as do that.
The other thing that concerns me about this app is that anyone else with this app and within Bluetooth or wifi range would automatically connect to the same 'mesh' network and be able to use my data plan, and me theirs of course.
If the app evolves and includes user settings to include/exclude other devices into the 'mesh' network and devices connecting becomes more instantaneous it may be more attractive.
I'll probably keep trying this out for a few more days but I would really like to find a quick connect button solution for tethering.
Thanks again.

That's strange - I use OpenGarden between my Nexus 7 and my HTC EVO 3G and it connects instantly, as soon as I enable bluetooth on my Nexus 7 (I leave bluetooth enabled on my HTC phone). I agree about that there is a lack of capabilities to "lock out" other users, although in practice, I've never had anyone else actually connect, so it's not an issue for me.
Let us know if you get OpenGarden working better - I use it quite a bit when eating lunch - works perfect every time... Good luck.

Thanks but its not the direction I was looking to go really.
My tablet tethers to my phone really well just using standard tethering features. I was just wanting a quicker way to do it then navigating to settings each time.
Anyway, fount a solution that fits perfectly. It called Bluetooth Shortcut and that is literally what it is.
The button is on my homepage which when clicked takes be directly to my list of paired devices in settings. So in two clicks I'm connected. Which is what I was trying to achieve.
Thanks for your inputs all the same.
