Resistive touchscreen and the ability to write characters on the TG01 - TG01 General

Hi, I want to buy a TG01 in the near future, due to the new ROMs and the low price in Germany for an used TG01 (starting at 160€) - I often use Pleco, a chinese dictionary and the "ChinaFEP No5" keyboard, that enables you to write characters on the screen. However I would like to know if there could be any problems because of the resistive touchscreen??? Does the touchscreen work incorrectly with "normal" pens? Do I need a special one?
Thank you for any answers regarding this problem!

AFAIK the resistives touchscreens work with any stylus... Capacitive touchscreens can have troubles with "normal" stylus.

thanks, I just thought I should ask before I buy it due to some reports about problems with the screen, but there seems to be a solution for that: showthread.php?t=632754

I know no. row missing but not a problem here
and
freedom the onl problem being is the keys being too small ,will it make so much of a diffrence, I am a touch typist and therfore concerned
Price no bar here
Which one should I go for ?
help
Check out this review of 3 different BT keyboards, including the two you mention. They quite like the Stowaway; if it doesn't appeal to you, maybe the Nokia will.
what about frogpad? it is for one hand. right or left available. also you canuse on mac, pc, linux, palm and ppc.

Multi-touch problem, maybe the driver causes.

Hero support up to 2 points, and the performance seems not so smooth as iphone, and the focus will shift!
Everyone could test your screen with Multi-touch Vis Test that download from market.
i9000 support up to 5 points!
who can solve this problem?
I'm going to assume it's a hardware limitation, which will never be fixed. Multi-touch on my Hero is and has always been weird.
thanks.````````````````````
Hardware limitation. It's not proper multi touch - it's a form of dual touch, but it only recognises the first finger position and the distance of the two fingers, as opposed to proper co-ordinates.

[Q] Using scandinavian letters on the Transformer Prime

Hello.
I have a couple questions about the Transformer prime.
First of all i was wondering if you were able to use scandinavian letters on the keyboard if it is bought in the US. I need to have Icelandic letters on it but i'm not sure if i will be able to use the keyboard to write on it which is essential since i am planning on using it for university.
Also i was wondering about the size, is the keyboard about the size of an iPad 2 or smaller? I have a eeePC 900HA and the keyboard is a little bit too small for me. It gets annoying to write after a little while. If anyone has a 900HA or a similar netbook it would be awesome to get a size comparison.
Cheers
I have a taiwan version of the keyboard dock, and I'm able to use danish keyboard layout. The actual danish keys like æ, ø and å are not on the physical keyboard obviously . You should be able to get stickers from an internet vendor.
I'll see if icelandic is available when I get home, but it would surprise me if it is not.
I think the keyboard layout is comparable to the asus netbooks I have tried out. I would not recommend the prime, netbooks, Ipads or any none laptop without a desktop OS for study. You'd be far better of with a real computer like a Thinkpad or Macbook. But that's just my opinion regarding computers for university, the Prime has already taken over all my needs for a laptop at home
Thank you for that and i will check this post to see if you can find the icelandic keyboard for it.
I don't need a powerhouse for my school computer because i don't use any powerhungry programs. What i need to use is a browser, view pdf files, email and a software that allows me to view, edit and create word documents, powerpoint spreadsheets and excel documents. Oh and also dropbox.
If the keyboard is as small as on the netbooks such as the 900HA i won't buy it. I have been using a netbook for school since the fall and i still haven't gotten used to the small keyboard.
I also have a pretty decent PC at home which i use for everything that the school computer can't handle. Also i tend to write essay's on it because i have a dual monitor setup and can have open documents on one screen and what i am writing on the other.
In what way do you not recommend the transformer for school, it would be very nice to have your input since you have one of those and have experience with using it. What are it's main drawbacks and so forth?
So I have just checked the language, and there is no keyboard support for Icelandic . There is danish, norwegian (bokmaal) and swedish.
My reasons for not choosing a tablet or the prime for study is that the keyboards are cramped, and the OSs are not supporting a full fledged office suite like MS office or Libre office atm. You will be a first mover no doubt, and that might spell trouble when things get busy at uni with exams and so on. Don't get me wrong, the Prime would still be fantastic for research and notes, but as a worktool it cannot compete with a macbook or thinkpad in regards to keyboard, OS and academical app support. Come to think of it, the above is mostly a concern, I haven't made enough experience with the prime to fully back it up.
If you can afford it, the buy both. Unis often have great discounts on apple and lenovo products - otherwise you can buy heavily discounted thinkpads over the net from germany from sites like ok1.de. Have a look at an X201 model from Lenovo or a Macbook Air before you decide.

Can someone test how it works to write with the Swedish letters Å Ä Ö on a Keyboard from the USA / Taiwan.
Understand that these are not on the physical keyboard. But would be nice to know what to do to write Å Ä Ö
If you use Swedish as the system language and writing language. Will the Keyboard dock fix so that Å Ä Ö get there own buttons?
Or if you can write Å Ä Ö Where on the keyboard do these ports?
Works the keyboard dock with Swiftkey Tablet X? If it does, then maybe you can write AO and word prediction automatically changes the AO to Å Ä Ö
Or did Asus's own keyboard also spelling and word prediction.
Hope someone understands what I'm trying to say.

[Q] 10" Android tablet with >=10 touch points?

Hi everyone,
for a project, I need to get a 10" Android tablet and the only real requirement is that it has to have at least 10 simultaneous multi touch points.
Unfortunately, it seems like this little details doesn't pop up in almost all of the specification listings on websites
So, do any of you know of a tablet that has a guaranteed number of 10 or more multi touch points?
Goddchen
Many (most) modern touch screens have exactly 10 touch points. I believe it's the industry standard for now. If not specified, probably almost every tablet will be fine for your needs.
okay, I see. Thank you.

Tab 7+5G and no factory NFC

Hi all, as we know the Tab7+5G has no NFC (Near Field Communication) hardware or software/firmware installed
by Samsung, while I know this is not a mobile phone it has everything else that a mobile phone can do, so
I don't understand why Samsung would leave off such a cheap production add on, maybe something to do
with their flat magnetic Keyboard/Cover installation to the back of S7 Tablet?
Anyway, for the expert members (I have looked around and googled) is there anyway I can
install an aftermarket removable NFC Dongle into USB C port and perhaps run an appropriate
App to activate so I can get working NFC on this S7 Tablet, or is it impossible or non-existent.
Thanks from this old guy, sorry to ask such a question but I cant find clear answers.
Yes, it's true, this tab lacks NFC. When I bought it, I just assumed that it had it, and was surprised that it doesn't.
It also doesn't have a proximity sensor, which is more important to me, but not a deal breaker.
Another thing that really ****ing peeves me is that you can't get the 256/500GB variant's if you also want LTE/5g. For some retarded reason, they restricted the carrier versions to 128gb only. Why can't I have 500GB AND 5g compatibility in the same tab? The WiFi only/carrier version's of the Tab S7+ are exactly the same size, there's no technical reason why the carrier versions can't have the larger sizes too.
Who are we lowly users to question the design decisions of Samsung?
