User agent on stock browser - Asus Transformer TF700

I can't seem to find the setting for user agent on the stock browser to set it to desktop mode. I can check always request desktop site in settings, but espn will only bring up the mobile site.
It's there a user agent setting for the stock browser like with Opera and Boat?

Try entering "about:debug" at the URL entry field, then press "Return", then go to settings. You shold then have another option "Debug" in there, where you can define the UAString...

Thanks! Now I remember we had to do that on the Prime at first.

[Q] How to share Tor or other anti-filtering apps on your PC through Ad-Hoc network

Hi you guys.
I have recently bought my Asus Transformer and I have a question.
I live in a country where internet is highly filtered and the access to Facebook, Youtube and many websites are restricted. I have bypassed the filtering by installing Tor on my PC and it’s working fine.
However, I wonder, is there any way to connect my Asus Transformer to my PC through ad-hoc to use Tor (or perhaps any other anti-filtering tools) and connect to those restricted websites? I guess it has something to do with Proxy settings but I really have no idea about how to get it done. It would really mean a lot to me and many others if someone can help me with this.
You can try orbit, it's a Tor-browser for android.
I think it allows you to select apps that will use the tor-tunnel. I'm guessing you just select the facebook-app, and use it like you normally would.

You are absolutely right aibo. My bad

Any way to gain access to banned sites (GEMA issue)

Hey guys, i hope everybody is doing fine.
My issue is that because i will live in Germany for 3 months, i would like to use my Grooveshark application there too but it seems that germany blocked grooveshark. I am not asking anything illegal just would like to know if there's a way to beat it? (Like ProxMate add on for Firefox in
Windows)
Thanks in advance..
You can just use a proxy server in numerous ways. One of them is tap and hold on your wifi connection in the settings - modify - advanced - add your proxy.

*.doc or *.docx? Any special formatting in the document that could've screwed things up? Does Word open the document off the flash drive without any issues?
Either way, it's (probably) not a TF700 issue, it'd be a Polaris problem so best to ask the developers and send the document to them so they can look into it.
If you have to open it, I'd email it to myself and open in Google Docs.

It's a Polaris bug, in the mean time you could use "Kingsoft office" and it should works fine.

You can do either or:
1. Hold down on the "host" file and a popup, (just like in your screen shot), select "Open as", then select "Text", then select "ES note editor", wait a bit and it should opened.
2. Just tab on the "host" file, select "text", then select "ES note editor", wait a bit and it should opened.
That's all. Just a reminder, this is the second time I hold hold hand through the process...LOL

Lucky no offence but you don't sound experienced enough to be editing system files. Permissions and how and what to edit require a bit more knowledge. Similar to the pm you set me about signature verification. If you carry on it is only a matter of time before you create a non booting or crashing device.
Go to the play store and download hosts editor and use apps like AdAway for controlling what ads you see.
Apologies if that came across as patronising. We all had to learn once but jumping straight in to the deep end when you don't know how to swim could be dangerous.

Trial and error can be a painful experience if you get it wrong. But yes it is one of many different learning methods. Not the safest or most sensible but if you are a risk averse person you can learn the hard way.

Hidden firmware menu???

Hi to all.
Sorry if I post something already known but I tried search here and in google and i didnt find anything.
If I go to settings and tap fast multiple times at camera, pad ec or dock version, I came up with a menu called transformer services with option to update pad ec, dock ISP and camera ISP.
What is that? Is it helpful for anything?
Thanks!
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2
Yes can be used for manually flashing firmware for individual components. Not unknown but not often used
To which folder could I write files from firmware to update by this hidden menu?
