Here is a fun challenge for one of the Developers out there.
I would like to have the ability to suppress the Touch pad on the Transformer Docking station when I plug an external mouse into it.
If any of you have tried, plugging a mouse into the USB port on the docking station is a easy exercise. It works right away. BUT, if you type any emails on the transformer docking station keyboard the touch pad is super sensitive and often gets in the way of typing.
So it would be cool if we could have a toggle or some sorts, or even better an auto recognize that would automatically suppress the internal touch pad when a mouse is plugged in. (optional perhaps?). Worst case scenario, find the process that runs in Android that runs the touchpad and terminate, but that would be ugly
Thanks all, support your devs.

Hello.
I'm interested in a Transformer Prime pad, but don't have one (yet…? ), so, please pardon the question… Anyway…
Is the keyboard from the KeyDock also usable (as a keyboard…), if the display isn't docked in?
Oh, and if the keyboard is used, does Android then also display the (in this case) useless on screen keyboard when text is entered? I hope not…
Lastly, I'm interested in the keyboard layout; how many keys does it have? Does it also have a <ctrl> key? It would be awesome, if somebody could please post a picture of the keyboard (or a link to one…).
I'm asking, because I'd like to figure out, how feasible it might be, to use the thing as a SSH client (using e.g. ConnectBot).
Thx,
Alexander
No, no, lots (could you not look at a picture?), yes. Connectbot works okay, but key combos don't always work. ConnnectBot needs to be updated for full support
Thx for the quick response!
I suppose connecting a Bluetooth keyboard to it would work, wouldn't it?
I know, I'm getting Off Topic, but… How about a USB and/or Bluetooth mouse? On YouTube, I found the video "How to Use a Bluetooth Mouse With the Acer Iconia A500", which shows that BT keyboard & mouse work with 3.1 — on the Acer device. How about Asus?
And, if mouse works, is copy/paste in ConnectBot as easy as it is on a "proper" Linux xterm or as in PuTTY?
Thanks again,
Alexander

I use a bluetooth keyboard with Connectbot, and yes the stupid on-screen keyboard appears, but pressing the Back softkey (or Esc on the keyboard, in my case,) hides it.
Key combos don't work for me, because Ctrl is not passed into the app, I think that's my S3 being dumb, but the Menu key on the keyboard brings up the menu with copy/paste and other options, so that at least is OK.
I think a mouse would technically work, but most apps are designed for touch-only, so I don't know if they would handle a mouse correctly. And it would probably be an app-by-app question.
so i like playing games on my tf300t and i would like to play fx dead trigger with mouse or controller. to do that you need to root and i dont want to root becouse rooting breaks warranty, is there any way arround this? or can someone come up with a alternative
any help appreciated.
If you have the keyboard dock try plugging a usb mouse into it on the right side. Otherwise maybe a blue tooth mouse and keyboard. I think the real problem is that the apps aren't designed for that type of input.

@ android 6..1 latest
I am trying to play RTS games via gamestream on my laptop to my Nvidia tablet using the ipega controller.
Now it does work and im reasonably happy though i suppose it will get some getting used to.
I am using the Keyboard and Mouse mode. While controlling the game with the analog sticks and gamepadbuttons function as mouse buttons.
But i am wondering to try some other things.
Can I for example increase/decrease sensitivity of the analog sticks functioning as the mouse?
Or increase/decrease the acceleration of the pointer/analogstick..
Would be great if you can fiddle around with it.
Also one other thing I really want changed is the keyboard mode. Some default keys are mapped to the keyboard mode of the Ipega 9023.
Now ofcourse I want to use specific buttons for the game itself and switch between keyboard and mouse mode as I play my RTS.
But how would I do this? There is no documentation on this... which is annoying.
I also heard about Tincore. I installed it and it sees my controller, but not sure if this app can do what i want and how I would do this...
Also have the software from the ipega company called android gamepad center. I started it but im not sure what this software does.
EDIT:

From around 1:40 - 2:00 you see him starting the android gamepad center. If I do it like this like him, the gamepad center screen doesn't change, At my screen it just keeps saying connect blue tooth controller.
It would be interesting aswell to create virtual buttons on the screen so i could controll the game via touch screen.
Hope someone can help me on this. Thanks
Bump. Anyone have the ipega9023?

Yes you can use a cheap air mouse with keyboard cheaper than magic mouse but some keys are missing or not working :
Home, Back, guide, 3D, parameters, device, colors keys
You can also use a keyboard with touchpad
