Got the 3.1 just 2day. Andcan install stuff frm market dy. Bt still kenot install google earth

hi folks. ive been trying togey the tf101 to work with my shared drives on win7. used es file explorer n file manager hd (honeycomb), no luck:

es fe - unable to go further than [ip add] / got Login failure
fm hd - unable to scan and connection test failed

tried guest, own username, turn off private network firewall.... still no luck. am i missing anything here?

double chked that. still cannot. case sensitive? $sign?

unfortunately, still cant. es still show Error, cant find server.. and if only ip address, login failure
- created new account with admin rights
- case sensitive paths
- turn off firewall
- ensured file sharing on and permission

does being in homegroup matters?

i still cant figure out how to connect shared drives using es and fm hd. oh well. nd to tweak more.

btw, just bought a bag from pg IT fair at d'piazza. a vztec bag for 12.1". VZ-LB-1612. its a 3in1 type. too bad no 10.2" type to be perfect fitting, bt it still does the job. RM55.


UPDATE: DOH! darn it... ive found the problem. silly me. i was still dumbfounded on why i could'nt connect after i tried a lot of settings on my Win7. until i realised i havent checked my 3yr++ old wi-fi router. and lo and behold, i was logged in using GUEST(PSK), hence no connection to local shared....

after re-login with the actual personal pwd, everything was smooth... thanks for being patient with me~!

hmm.. i am also unable to install google earth via web (does not support your country). does it matter where we register our gmail address?

about charging, i believe the xda forum had found a way:
- the asus charger will actually output 11v frm the usb +ve n -ve ports. this is by detecting 2 shorted pins on the usb3.0 pins on the tf101 side.
- in short, u nd a 11v supply via usb supply pins to charge the tf101
hence the 'specific' usb extension cables


asus charger > asus cable > tf101
asus charger > usb3.0 ext (male-female) > asus cable > tf101
11v charger (11v instead of 5v via usb pins) > usb 2.0 / 3.0 m-f ext cable > asus cable > tf101

u can read up at the xda forum. do take note on the current (amperes) requirements as well!! not for the faint hearted.
