[Q] Remote management of TF201 - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

When I initially got and registered my Prime, I was referred to a web page where I could remotely manage and track my tablet. I tried it and really liked the options.
But whatever I do today, I cannot recall where this page is. Probably some dead Asus servers (most of the pages return HTTP error 500 today) help to that as well.
Do anyone has a record about this web page?

i never heard of an official Asus way of doing what you said. I'm interested in seeing this page you speak of. i know there are 3rd party apps that can do this but never heard of an Asus solution.

Are you talking about the "find my phone" type apps, or an app where you can see and control the Prime from your PC...
If it's the latter, I used to use www.mymobiler.com on my Win6.5 Phone. They now have an Android version, but you need to be rooted, and unfortunately, I'm not....so I can't really say anything about the Android version.

It's been mentioned a few times around here:

Go nuts.

@Namiardo,
That is what I was talking about, devicetracker dot asus dot com. Thanks for reminding me!

I almost forgot about this. I signed up for it a while ago but thankfully haven't actually needed to use it.
Just tested it out and everything appears to still be working. Took a little while for it to locate me, but it eventually nailed down my location.

You may find some information on centrastage.com
They are occupied with remote management software and might give you an advice or something

browsertexting.com, works amazingly

i used the site which let me see my contacts so i could text people from the touch pad browser using my android phone. it was quick worked quick. i could even respond with out issues. now if someone could turn this into an standalone app that would be amazing, that way we could incorporate a pop up feature. should not be hard if there is already a system in place.

Tablet Talk is for tablets, browsertexting for pc. There's a difference.

You are half correct. Tablet Talk is for tablets. Browsertexting is for internet browsers which both PC's and Tablets are capable of.
Seeing as this is under the HP Touchpad forum and the HP Touchpad is, in fact, a tablet I think my previous comment holds some merit.

What are you using to read WJS?

Did some searching and didn't really find my answer so going to post here let me know if this should have been in General.
What are you using to read the wall street journal?
I have seen 2 apps on my transformer prime when searching. There is the WSR (wall street reader) its a paid app for 6.09. I already pay WJS for access and think paying again for a reader sucks.
There is a WJS tablet but it does not show up on my prime, only in google market (web) Says its not compatable with my infuse nor my TFP, but will go to the Samsung note.
Then the last app seems not really made for a tablet.
So what are you using to read WJS, do I have to suck it up and buy WSR?
True i could go to the webpage but I was hoping for a local copy that I could read on the way to work.
Thanks
I think WSJ has Pressreader support?
If you have online account with WSJ, try this -
Pressreader - Settings - Accounts - Authorize (put your WSJ's username+password here)
Your subscription should appear.
WSJ Android App
The WSJ has an Android Tablet App. Scroll to the very bottom of the first online page and click on "tablet". It seems expensive at $4.00/week. I have a print subscription and will be giving them a call to see if they have any special offers for print subscribers. I agree that the current solutions in the Android Market don't work very well.
let me know if you find any thing out, please. My email seems to have fallen of def ears.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
There are 2 apps for the WSJ, one designed for the tablet the other for your phone. The tablet app is pretty heavy, takes a long time to load and in general bogs down my Prime. The WSJ I have installed on my HTC Amaze is light and flys on the prime but like you said the market wont let you install it on the tablet, soooo....First you need to root your tablet, you dont need to unlock the bootloader just root it. I backed up my phone apps using titanium, once the prime has root I copied the titanium backup directory to my SD card and then restored the phone WSJ app, works great. The Washington Post also has an app for the phone only, did the same thing and it works as well.
Awesome will try it, I already have it rooted for adblock. Kinda sad really, when I rooted my phone I had a ton of things to do... I rooted my prime and I put adblock on and basically forgot I had it even rooted. Thanks for confirming I could just copy over the apk and install. I will post back my experiences in case anyone is watching... Ya I doubt it...
Thanks!

[Q] Google Play missing search results

All,
This is an odd one and maybe not transformer specific, however I dont see the issue on my HTC Sensation so thought I would check here if others have seen the issue.
I am running the latest Google Play on the transformer prime (3.5.16) the same as my phone. I am connected via Wi-Fi with both devices to my home internet router and a run the simple search "BT" on both devices.
The phone returns 3 results including the BTFon app I wanted. And the Transformer prime only returns 1 result.
If I serach via the online web market for the app I can get to the page an install it without an issue, it just seems the search does not return the results.
The only thing I can think is that I purchased the transformer prime in Canada but have it set up for UK use. The phone from a UK retailer.
So my question is does Google Play filter results based on the device origin some how?
Not the biggest issue, but intereted to understand.
Peter
That means it is not available for the Transformer Prime.

This. To clarify, developers can select what model devices and what operating systems their app is compatible with, and can exclude devices on that basis as well.
Maybe the apps are not "tablet-ified"
Thanks for the feedback. I guess you might be right as the apps I am thinking of are scaled up and phone apps. As I say I can still get them so they are not blocked and do work so it seems odd.
Never mind, not worth loosing sleep over!

You could always side-load it onto your Prime, but the previous comments are correct: it's considered incompatible with the Prime until the developer updates.

It appears to be on my phone and not the SD card. I'm using the Samsung Galaxy III. I'm going to say, "no" I don't use TB Pro since I'm not even sure what it is. Also, my phone isn't rooted to my knowledge in the event that matters.
if you have instagram installed it belongs to that app, its how instagram knows your device, i recently got banned from ig (dont ask y lol) and ive been looking for a way around it, one possible way around the ban is related to that file....my prob is i jus cant seem to find it, ive formatted my sd via windows 8 so hopefully that will do the trick..

That is exactly what it is homie. I had the same thing on my phone. I was able to find out when it was installed, then looked on my google dashboard to see where I was when it got installed. It happened at a bar. My friend Max borrowed my phone and went into the bathroom. Long story short, he thought I was bang'n his girlfriend. I confronted him, and he admitted it and let me see the other end of the app. Cool stuff as long as you're the one watching, and not being watched. It's from sms tracker agent. Look on google play. Somebody wants to know what you are doing when nobody is looking. If you see this and need more details I can provide them.
So then
Wow. Nvm.

Ya I've been being stalked now for almost 3 yrs and well I don't really know anything about it due to the fact that I never wanted to but now I kinda wish I did. I have a HTC M7 w/ Verizon and well this is my 10th device they've sent me and well the same problem still seems to exist. So any assistance you could provide would be more then appreciated. My device is not rooted to my knowledge but it definitely gets hot all by itself. I keep deleting the app from my storage and well it keeps re appearing. The crazy thing is my Dialer is always running and this device doesn't even have service. So any help would be Awesomely appreciated.

It is your app data on your google account, then possibly app data on Microsoft accounts such as one drive and one note. Then any other emails are suspect too. I had to change all three of mine because the app data and system settings that are stored kept coming back. Get a new device, and get all new emails and never ever go back to them. Do not even save your contacts. The data will transfer in your contacts.vcf file. Trust me. Abandon ship.

Hi, i have this file coming on all the time and i'd like to know exactly what it is . I've check property few times and once it was created in 1970 (??!!) So I don't think it is from instagram . I've also been jailbroken twice, in a week, then lost my keyboard, then 40 to 50 go from my pics just gone (few were new and not save, but ok) . Then, any info about that files would be great

Same thing just started happening with my Craigsnotifica app, none of the search results have any of the original text, but photos are still there. It's bummer too, because it appears that all development has stopped on this app. I tried some of the other CL search apps and nothing compares to this. It's the most efficient CL search app out there! if anyone finds out anything more about fixes or updates, please postany info you have.
Mine is doing the same thing starting yest. I think development stopped on this app when CL put the smack down on their API, and I suspect the text not pulling is CL tweaking the API. Sucks cause I had a whole job hunting system down pat, but at least it still pulls headlines, and then its just one more button to hit to load the original post webpage. Who knows how long that'll last.
Sucks that CL decides to kill all the good CL apps, without putting out one of their own, or that at least can do the things that we seem to love about this one. You would think its good for business.

I didn't mention this before but this also started happening to me within the past 2 days.
Has anyone used Craigslist Mobile before?
Bummer. Craigsnotifica has been my favorite for years.

She's dead jim ug was working up to a few days ago for me any replacements?
There doesn't seem to be anything with notifications.
I am in the same boat as you guys. Really stinks as there is nothing even close to this one. Any suggestions would be great.
Craigsnotifica still does notifications. Then I switch to the app I posted earlier.
I'm glad someone posted this up... it began happening to me a couple of days ago while I was out and about. I was so puzzled I uninstalled and re-installed and set up and everything. I had a bad feeling something had changed behind the scenes at CL and that the app was no longer 100% compatible. It figures, and it was only a matter of time as all development had stopped for this app. This makes me really sad. At least for now I can still hit the web link to get to the page for each ad I want to see, but I'm not very hopeful as I've tried a number of different apps in the past and none have been as nice and as effective as this one.
Has anyone ever tried to contact the dev and see what's going on? His last Twitter update was back in July, and then just *poof*.
There is another app that does notifications. It's called c*Pro craigslist Client Droid. The free version lets you save one notification, and the pro ($1.99) lets you save multiple. I just purchased so I'm not entirely sure how good it it is... YMMV.

So whats the feedback with the app? Is it as good as craigsnotifca?
cPro is pretty good. Try the free version.
CPro is okay. I don't like that you have click on the arrow buttons to see results in other areas. I'm not sure how you do an OR or AND search as well.
