I am using iPhone 3GS, yes, can update to the latest iOS but wifi hotspot feature will not be available to it. That's how Apple going to phase out the 3GS slowly. sad.gif

not slowly, it will be phrased out officially Tuesday 1Am local time, when Steve announce iOS 5... rumor says 3GS will not have it

Oh yes, that's what I heard from rumors too. Sad!!!


Added on June 6, 2011, 12:05 pmJust tested with my friend's iphone 4 native wifi hotspot, it will broadcast itself as infrastructure mode (router) instead of adhoc / peer-to-peer network. TF can detect it without problem.

So now the conclusion is, either i change iphone 4 or root my TF. :|
*
don u mean iPhone 5? don tell me u gonna change to iPhone 4 when iPhone 5 is announced.... although if u want to, i would happily sell u mine, and i'll get the iPhone 5 when it launches XD

but looks like imma update mine tonight too

Haha... the cheapest solution is for me to root my TF first and use it with my iphone 3gs.

cheapest and easiest would be just bluetooth tethering, works fine actually, i used mine that way too

tis has become complained thread

never under estimate power of internet

hope tis issue can settle soon..

now im delayin any tablet purchase
*
it has been for sometime, first the market issue, then some of us(including me) cant get updates on time complain like hell, and now the keyboard dock issue... sorry to say but for some reason now i felt like there's no point keeping the tablet since there's nothing i can do with it, the market is not even available for us, not most of the content at least...
btw, heard that Kal El(tegra 3) will come at august, might as well wait till then and see how... i might sell mine and upgrade if there's a Asus unit that can fit the keyboard

Well... Let's wait untill 30 June... By 1 July... let's all make report and ask for full refund + some compensation...

That way we can go to other shop and get full Transformer...
*
yeah, i don mind that, honestly, previously i was ok with other shops having keyboard + dock, maybe they got their stock from a different supplier, but when someone says evernew is actually selling full set? c'mon, so why the F-ing hell did we go there, wasted the morning queuing there just to get it? They could have individually contact us, and give us the dock according to our tag number the other day, that would seem fairer, at least those went there early gets their full set first, since they are the one that wasted the most time on queuing up

i cant find proxy setting to add the US base IP. where is hidden proxy setting.
*
u go market download this software called anycut
after installing it, launch it, and select "New Shortcut"
Select "Activity"->"Proxy Setting", it will ask u to name your shortcut. u can leave it to default or put some name for it, then press ok
u will see there's a message "Shortcut successfully created"
go to ur home screen, you should see your shortcut there(it will be named Proxy Setting if u leave it to default name)
tap on it, and it will launch the hidden proxy setting

*if you launch the shortcut and get to the setting screen on some other setting, press "back" until u are back to your homescreen, then tap on the shortcut again, u will now see the proxy setting

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

the ip number is in no proxy for??
port  and the ip(no proxy number) is from hidemyass right ?
what about the hostname ??

i can't see the "bypass proxy for" u mention

Note 1: You need to just add the proxy IP address and Port. Leave the rest blank. --- - cannot..it says the port field must be empty if the host field is empty meaning i need to fill hostname, port and no proxy for
*
ok, my bad, forgot to mention in detail... on HideMyAss, if u search with IP:Port Proxies, u get IP address, and port number
on the hidden menu,
the Proxy Hostname, key in the IP Address(for example, "82.35.26.39"),
and the Proxy Port, put in the port number(for example: "3128" or "8080")
and there should be another field, that field just leave it blank, and press save

btw how to know i install adobe flas player or not ??most website that have flash opens as mobile browser

i go to android market ->my apps can't find adobe flash player
when i search it on market,it says open but then the requested file is not found
.still can't download angry birds.but lucky got .apk but hard to find
*
i think if that's the case u better just google for the apk file...

QUOTE(littlekev @ Jun 7 2011, 12:32 AM)
I found out the reason behind why we have to "try our luck" with the proxy we found in hidemyass.com. It is because we are not using HTTPS proxy. In order for market to get connected to google market place, it has to establised a secured connection. I tried to filter out and take only the HTTPS proxy server, one time already success and I am now downloading apps from market without problem. smile.gif

mydragoon, You might want to update the steps in your first page. smile.gif

1) Download and use anycut to create shortcut to hidden proxy setting
2) Go to http://hidemyass.com/proxy-list/
3) select only the United States
4) Port(s), select "all ports"
5) Protocol, select ONLY HTTPS
6) Anonymity level, planetlab, speed and connection time, leave it by default or select all.
7) select the highest speed proxy and make sure the IP address is in 3 or 2 digits format. For example: DO NOT select 69.132.96.2 <--- not only 1 digit, it might be error or your honeycomb won't accept it. A good one would be 173.212.227.188
8) Remove your account from pad/tablet from account & sync in settings
9) Run android market, re-enter your account
10) I think you can remove the proxy after this as it is no longer required (after the next update or whenever android market cache is cleared)
*
hmm... i tot last time when i first posted the hidemyass search filter i got mention HTTPS also? dunno from which page liaw, friend of mine already told me need HTTPS to work, hence i added HTTPS filtering last time

Hi all, just to let everyone know I've written in an official complaint email regarding the whole pre-order event flop to Asus, included some of the board of directors, marketing team in Taiwan and Jerry Shen the current CEO. To me all this issue fits a Tribunal case for consumer rights. If they still do not respond or Asus Malaysia still ignoring us on FB, I will lodge a report. I believe everyone deserve some form of compensation  smile.gif .

if there's need for other members to support, please let me know, i am disppointed with evernew/Asus now

hey guys,

was wondering what is the best video player for TF..

I already update it to HC 3.1,

And my only dowloaded video player is Mobo (if not mistaken)
it were able to play both AVI and MKV. but I found that for AVI it was lagging.

wonder is it the software or there is a codec that I needed to update?
*
is your MKV using AVC codec? as far as i know our hardware decode(due to license) is only limited to h.264...

btw, RockPlayer seems to be able to play AC3 audio on software decode mode, but is there anyway to make video as hardware decode while audio is software decoded? that would be perfect...

For moboplayer, you need to install MoboPlayer Codec for ARMV7VFP3. My AVI not lagging maybe because it only 70mb  hmm.gif
*
that one it will prompt u to install geh.... mine also installed, and my 720p MKV file plays like butter, but no audio because Asus too stingy to spend on codec license...

Check out Asus's FB page. The docks will be available latest by this Friday.

Also, it looks like the market issue has been resolved. I can now download both Angry birds without resorting to any proxies.
*
i'm still getting that, just that now i can see the application size and the permissions it need when i try to install it

so far i didnt root my tf, downloaded several hd apks, most of the tegra games still having probs rendering the environment such as monster madness, gof2, vendetta, etc. and quite laggy/stuttering. but overall im satisfied with it! 3.1 did improves lots of things. only that i still have light bleed and speaker is louder on right side. can RMA based on that?

thanks for your advice.. you are absolutely right that android needs to find it's strength factors again as Apple successfully copycats lot of android features and somehow makes it better in iOS5!

but i believe Android will still outclass iOS in terms of software side..
*
we just need more exclusive, nice graphic games, and i better video player that can support every common format out there...

was testing with mVideoPlayer last night, it works with internal subtitles, but i don think there's hardware decode yet

why do u think so? it's the matter of whether the devs wants to implement it or not... with this issue, honestly i kinda regret getting this babe... i could've gotten a EEEPC 1215B that runs Fusion dual core 1.6Ghz(with cheaper price too), and that one wont be having much apps issue, and it dont have codec limitation as we have now...

even web browsing also, Fusion will be better with it, everthing is higher spec'd, only thing would be bettery life... i do hope this tablet would become better at time, so that i wouldn't regret my purchase... more games more codec support and better browser experience, and i'm cool with it...

well, maybe you will come up with a custom rom leh?!?  biggrin.gif

malaysia boleh!

haha... i'm not that good until can cook my own custom rom, just hope there would be ppl that can do that... currently processor speed can be made up using overclocking, and already got ppl hitting 1,6Ghz without harming the CPU... so browsing should be ok, video... if mVideoPlayer have hardware decode, it'll be perfect as well, but so far, tala... haha
and, with tegra 2 graphics, i feel like our device is underutilized with the game titles available out there, i don even feel any lags from tegra zone titles, maybe that means they can push the graphics to a higher level... just hope more quality games that iOS have would be ported to android with same/better graphics, GT Racing and all, where the texture have been massively downscaled
