Themes and Apps for Transformer Prime - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

This is just a placeholder

It would be cool to have a future list showing Tegra 3 optimized games. Its already shown that each THD game has extra special effects for Tegra 3 over Tegra 2.
I'm not sure if the above is driver related, or the developer must make that happen.

I am not sure about the themes and the applications but still when i was searching about the same on other websites i came to have know about the games.
you must be guys aware about the tablet as it comprises tegra 3 processors thus if you wanted to download games compatible with tegra 3 so you can simply download it from here.

Apps not working so far for me (gamestop prime)
Netflix stock -will not open
- Update it in the Market now I get error that it cannot connect to Netflix.
Bang Bang Racing - License error
- I've already purchased it before prior to prime. But when I try to download to prime and open it I get License error and cannot get past it. I dont get it since its a tegrazone app
EDIT: After a factory reset it ran Bang Bang Racing and the Netflix update in market now works.
It seems a lot of the Gameloft games I've purchased in the market for my acer a100 (which I've modified device id to an a500) is not compatible yet with the prime such as:
Modern Combat 3
Lets Golf 3
Brothers in Arms
Backstab

Does anyone know where a good CPU meter similar to the NVidia demo? I would like to see the performance of the 4 (or 5 if you count the companion) and have not found one. I am probably blind and it is on the device already but any direction would be appreciated.

system panel light shows the 4 cores working. once you load it up and you see the pie graph meters up top, just tap it. then it'll go to another screen and will show you pie graph of each of 4 cores working and monitoring in real time. you can see if one corridor working or more. this is all within the app though. not an overlay like nvidia demo over any app or whatever.
another good free app to get is Elixir2. shows you the most detailed info of components of your device ever. even shows sensors and u can test them nd monitor performance of them in real time

My recommendations is this apps that i use the most

[Q] Streaming screen (like 3d game) from PC - possible?

Hello,
I am a gamer, and I am quite new to tablets.. and one of things that is bothering me - is there a possibility to use tablet as "remote touch screen".
I mean - lets say we start some game on PC - let the high-end pc hardware do all the rendering and stuff AND then compress it a bit in real-time AND stream it to tablet over WiFi -> so basically you have any PC app "running" on tablet...
(add to that some control conversion from touch to pc mouse-clicks - and most titles should be playable not-so-bad level)
Is something like this possible? Or maybe tegra3 is still not powerful enough to handle that? (or maybe its impossible to real-time compress 720p video to size that would go easy over wifi (20-30 mbit/s ?) ? - if I remember 720p video is present in some skype but I do not know how lag-free it is...)
Just wondering...
Thanks for answers.
Yes. Two things to look into. First, plain old VNC (google it), which has been around forever. The best android VNC client I've used so far is TeamView. Others may have other favorites.
Second, there is a service called OnLive strictly for remotely streaming games to various devices. They have (recently, I believe) released an android client.
Splashtop HD is the best for what you looking for. its built into the Prime. its in the Mycloud app. OnLive is a gaming server client on its own. you choose PC/console games they have on their server. which is alot. you can't set up your own thing with Oblige. Onlive is everything within itself. the streaming game play is great and virtually no lag. play games like PC Nvidia version of Batman Arkham city, Homefront, Metro 2033, Aliens vs. Predator FPS, New Quake, Darksiders, Street Fighter 4 n tons more.

Does anyone that's used both have any thoughts on how Splashtop HD compares to Teamviewer? Is it worth the price tag (Teamviewer being free)?
TV is dead simple to use, but it would never confuse it with using my PC directly. If there is something faster and smoother I'm all for switching...

You might also want to look into OnLive. They recently released an Android app for their game streaming service. Some games are modified to allow for touch screen control. You can use a game pad as well...
http://www.onlive.com/
Oops... OnLive already mentioned...ah well, I second the suggestion then!
Prime comes with splashtop installed, but if your looking to play games that are streamed off of a PC you want OnLive.
The Prime can handle the streaming part just fine. Splashtop has had the best results for me (best frame rate and picture quality).
There are three major issues you should know about though with Splashtop and your application assuming you are using either the dock or an external mouse and keyboard.
1st - You cannot play the games on you PC in full screen. I'm not sure if it is the same in all remote desktop programs, but there is apparently a difference in the way windows and directx handle the graphics when you have either windowed or full screen. Splashtop can't capture full screen and therefore can only play games in windowed mode.
2nd - Android does not have a right click. Even if you hook up a mouse, right click will be mapped to the back button. This sucks for games in a big way. Some of the RDP software I've seen have a trick for this to get right click, but I haven't had luck gaming with those.
3rd - Splashtop does not mouse track. What this means is that even though you see your mouse cursor moving around on you tablet screen (assuming you are using an external mouse), Splashtop only registers its location when you click on something. The effect is that games like first person shooters won't work properly since you can't look around with the mouse like you normally would. Again, other RPD software out there has this ability, but like before, they didn't work well for games for me.
I would love for this thing to work for playing PC games remotely, but at the moment it just isn't quite there. Splashtop updates frequently, so maybe in the near future they will implement things to fix the last two issues.

the Widgets list is good BUT we already have a dedicated Gamer's thread that's already in the proper section. plus has actual links to the marketplace for the games listed. it's already extensive and has people that confirm the list of what's working or not. not just listing games period cuz its in the marketplace. If you want to see it just click on the link in my sign.
I think the Widgets list/thread would be a great idea since there is not one yet.
edit: just checked your list out again..lmfao You have alot up there that's not compatible with Prime. they won't even show up in marketplace for Prime. you list alot of cracked apps or ones that had to have build.prop edited to get to work on Prime..lol.

most of the time ones not listed in marketplace have to be hacked or whatever to get to work. Or if you somehow get a hold of an apk from an Acer500 or Xoom tablet of that game. Since those devices run the same resolution. Plus there is no way for you to link to getting the game because since its for another device, it'll be considered Wares. And its against forum rules to post links to apk that are paid apps for free. that would be what alot of those Gameloft and other games you listed would be.
@Blackinjun I need link to Madden12 to update like the rest in my OG post.
to the op, I seriously think we need a widget one though. to show ones that work and those optimized for tablets. maybe even a brief description of them. Out of the box. Prime definitely lacks a good amount of choice for Widgets. I'd be interested in that kind of thread as there are people who love Widgets and the functionality they bring without having to open up an app.

[Q] Playstation Store Update?

Recently, I decided to go on the Playstation Store, through my Tablet S. Turns out, there was an update. Simple enough to install... However, there weren't any noticeable changes to the store itself. I downloaded the games MediEvil and Jet Moto again, seeing how I used to love those games, and I did download them whilist they were free. I had to get rid of them, cause there wasn't enough storage space on my 16GB Tablet. After reinstalling them and everything, the UI was noticeably... Smaller. The buttons in the menus no longer took up the entire screen, and although I may be wrong, I think the Graphics are slightly improved. Text in games seemed less pixelated....
These changes haven't done anything to Pinball Heroes, or Crash Bandicoot.
Anyone here know if there are going to be more games added, or improvements to the emulator?
i guess Sony is the only one who can give u the answer pal. i do not think the Playstation Store app will improve the games or emulator.
It would be so nice if I could comment but as the flaming sony store app for the tablet doesn't work in Ireland I can't

Sony S1 App Essentials

Alright, so I took the plunge and have this bad boy arriving to my doorstep tomorrow. I certainly plan to spend some time playing with this all night and downloading anything and everything. I just wanted to see what people found as really helpful apps that show off their tablet, and/or really helped boost the utility of the tablet.
I don't care whether the apps are games, tools, widgets, etc.
What are you addicted to on your tablet the most?
I know with my hobbled Evo 4G I'm excited to give Draw Something and TempleRun a go without it resetting my old Sense launcher every 10 minutes. But beyond that, I haven't really looked into any tablet specific apps.
And besides Play apps, are there any built in Sony specific add-ons that really surprised you more than you expected (IR, Qriocity, etc.)?
Favorites are;
Game- Reckless Racing 2
Widget- PWS( Wunderground Personal Weather Station)
App- Torque
I mainly use my tablet for reading, so my favorite apps are:
- Amazon Kindle, absolutely love it, its better than apple's iBook in every way
- Perfect Viewer, I think its one of the best manga viewers on Android

Sony Reader vs Kindle vs Nook vs Google Play Books
How do they shake out in your mind?
Didn't quite know how to best approach each one. Just read through The Hunger Games on the stock Sony Reader app. Was about to download the other apps for comparison.
PS I love reading on this baby though. Just feels good.
I haven't tried the Sony Reader app yet, I mainly use Nook and the Kindle app. I think the Kindle app is better designed and works better but it is easier to sideload epub books into the Nook app.
Nook: sideloaded epub files, free book giveaway every friday
Amazon: use it mostly to read ebooks checked out from libraries. Works great.

I haven't actually tried the Sony Reader, I have most of my library on Kindle already so I just went with Kindle.
Media:
-Sony's pre-loaded Remote Control app is great. I use it in the living room all the time and hardly touch my remotes anymore.
-Plasma Sound HD (Free) is a very fun music app that makes good use of the tablet screen size
-Adobe Photoshop Touch ($10) is a great portable substitute for the real Photoshop application. $10 seems a bit steep for an app, but you'll never need any other photo editing apps.
-Gmote 2.0 (Free) is a great app that allows you to browse for files on your computer and open them on your computer or on the tablet. It also has a touchpad mouse built in. Very handy if you have a PC hooked up in a living room.
-Amazon Kindle (Free) has been the smoothest e-reading experience for me, by miles. I'll second that Perfect Viewer (Free) is great for comics and manga.
Utility:
-If rooted, AdFree Android is a great adblocker that vastly improves browsing speed on the stock browser.
-ADWLauncher EX ($3.32) is the best alternative launcher I've found so far, though the recently released GO Launcher HD could give it a run for its money if they add more customization options.
-HD Widgets ($1.99) is my personal favorite for adding a digital clock, switches and weather status to your home screen.
-If you have a Wii, Wiimote Controller (Free) is a nice little app that allows you to sync your bluetooth Wii remote to your device. It's great for using with emulators.
Games:
-ChuChu Rocket
-Dead Space
-Draw Something
-Grand Theft Auto III
-Scramble with Friends (obscenely addictive)
-Shadowgun

Thanks for you
Apps:
>Documents to go -loading up a full word document with pictures is pretty snazzy
>File Manager HD - nice file browser for tablets
>MX video player, or double twist. Both good but I go MX.
>Winamp for music
>Volume+ FREE is nifty as - compresses all outputs so that they all stay in the upper range of loudness, and as such gives the effect of turn up the volume.
>My bank has an awesome net banking app for tablets also that is very intuitive, maybe yours might too
Games:
>(whoops just saw hogaburger posted this one allready) ShadowGun - a pretty impressive gears of war clone that looks and plays great on the sony tablet s. Also supports mapping controls to a ps3 controller/gamepad
GTA3> Plays and looks great, also natively supports the ps3 controller but I'm sure you could reconfigure the controls if needed.
>ZEN Pinball THD. It's simply amazing, if you like pinball I don't think you'll find a better app on the play store.
I also recommend getting Slide me marketplace installed (3rd party market). Then you can get some amazing emulators that used to be at premium price on the android market (and were/are the finest emulators around) for free . ie snesoid, nesoid, gbcoid, etc etc. The only one he seems to be charging for is N64oid. Pity cause I bought that back inthe day and now it's gone .
And the fun really starts if you decide to go ahead and root the tablet. Then all the games from gameloft become available to you if you edit your build.prop
Stock sony apps you say? Crash bandicoot is definately the best one . The rest suck in my opinion. Some would argue that the IR remotes awesome, I just find it tedious. Or that the sony music player sounds great, but I think the tablet itself sounds bad anyway so whats the difference really. Plus you gotta jump through hoops to get your SD card music to show up in it. (need root).
Oh. I do like the stock launcher and keyboard. If you don't mess with them too much, they work pretty good.

It's really cool that GTA 3 supports a controller input! I'll have to check that out now.
And that the Slide me marketplace sounds really nifty. I guess I'll have to get that micro to mini USB dongle thing to plug in a gamepad and really unlock the emulator abilities of the tablet!
I HATE how little Sony's PSN games offer. With everything they've collected from me, I refuse to buy MediEvil and such twice. My account info should all be able to transfer over and unlock that.
Thank you all for this great list. My Tablet S should be here tomorrow, I hate that I will be at various appointments all day before I could get my hands on it.
I'm a little disappointed it does not interact more with the PS3, but I have my fingers cross that with the ICS update this matter will be address.
I'm still on the fence on if I should root or not.
Got my Sony tablet S, and after playing with it for about 5 hours last night, this thing is great! This is my first tablet so really nothing to compare it to.
My wife which has a Kindle keyboard is loving this tablet, she loves the bigger screen, the fact that she can read in the dark without a desk lamp, and most of all the shape.
So now i'm in the market for a second tablet as soon as may 1st, I will wait and see if Google comes with something like the rumors says, or maybe one of the new samsung, or the prime.
Thanks again for the list.

It's really cool that GTA 3 supports a controller input! I'll have to check that out now.
And that the Slide me marketplace sounds really nifty. I guess I'll have to get that micro to mini USB dongle thing to plug in a gamepad and really unlock the emulator abilities of the tablet!

Click to expand...

+1 for that
Sony isn't really doing his best I mean which PSone games do you have other then the silly ones available right now
These games I would like to see in the PS store:
1. Command and Conquer
2. C&C Red Alert 1
3. A Bugs Life
4. Ape Escape
5. Tomb Raider
6. Rayman
These games are already much more "Liked" then the simple games on ps store and still, Nothing more then just a couple of dumb old games..
And they need a controller or it is not playable except rayman.
Example: Fpse doesn't support ps3 Controller
Fancy widgets for a very nice HTC style clock and weather
for me,
Best Apps:
iTap Mobile RDP - a fantastic remote desktop app which uses requires no 3rd Party App to be installed on the pc. I use it at home and at work, and has gesture recognition.
Price: About $12
Mindjet - formally 'Thinking Space Pro', a paid for app, this is now owned by MindJet (who I think make enterprise level versions of the software) as a free app. Makes a great tool for at work.
Price: free
Best Games:
Sim City - Surprisingly good graphics and gameplay, though takes a little getting used to the controls.
Price: Can't remember, but about $4 iirc
Train Crisis HD - just a fun puzzle type game
Price: Approx $1

LG G8x App list

Hey guys. I just got the phone. Does anyone have a list of app/games that support dual screen? Google searches are not providing much luck to me. Also I see some games that are supposed to support the game pad don't seem to work with the game pad app. Seems like a very good phone, I'm just trying to figure out the best way to utilize it. I know Chrome does and its awesome for multitasking. Having both my fantasy football leagues up at the same time is amazing. Thanks for the help!
I guess its slim pickens....
Yea, since this is technically the 1st phone of its kind(Axon M withstanding), apps that support the tech are scarce. With the Microsoft Duo coming though, developers are bound to jump on the train by this time next year.
Whale Naver browser (omnitasking)
Some Korean 5G services
Pirate of Caribbean (dual)
Asphalt 9
Shadowgun legends
All PWA (progressive web apps) supports extended wide view. Just 'add to homescreen' on supported webs (https://Twitter.com for example)
So just to clarify, I could not get any game to natively support the dual screen view. You can launch the game and the LG Game Launcher to pop up the controller on the bottom. Whether the app supports the controller or not, it opens up the controller. Then if the game supports it, you get the notification that a controller is connected. I was able to play Asphalt 9 with the controller. I was not able to find, install, or test the Pirates of Caribbean (Dual) version of the app. I can find and install the normal version, but I didn't bother with it.
Thanks for the posts guys. Hopefully more people will post useful apps and games as they become available. I really thought I would find a list on Google, but only getting reviews of the phone.
Yeah it's kind of disappointing right now. Even though COD Mobile says it's support controller that LG Game-pad does not connect. You can go in and modify your own configuration for the game but for a game like COD it might be a bit tedious. I was playing around with Trials and since there is only a few buttons to map I was able to get that custom setup. They advertised the LG Game-pad to work with any game that supports a controller. Well that might be partially true. So far Asphalt 9 is the only game that works with the LG Game-pad default controller configs. I tested COD and NBA 2K20 which both support controllers and neither work without having to build your own custom config.
I don't know the name of those apps
