Has anyone tried to use the Zippy BT-500 with their G Tablet? I stupidly ordered it based on the amazon description saying Android compatible.
I've tried to pair it, and the G Tablet sees the keyboard, but it won't pair. Any ideas?
Thanks,

i'm searching for something like this http://store.everythinghtc.com/htc-wired-remote-control-stereo-headset/11A29A5242.htm
is it compatible for G1 Dream?
Something else to propose?
I don't believe its compatible. I looked this up a while ago and discovered that the Dream doesn't have support for it.

even if is written that is compatible with hero and magic?
Nope, it doesn't work. I bought one before only to have it prompty returned and refunded because it said it worked with the G1, which it didn't.

there is something bluetooth that can be used with this function?
I bought a car air vent mount made for tablets. Shot a video review of it, I paid about $20 shipped for it. My air vents arent really designed for these type of mounts so I had to put something under the mount on the vent to keep it standing, but I still dont trust my $400 tablet with it. I could probly mod it in some way to keep it more sturdy.
In video I have the asus transformer tethered to my atrix.

Are you actually going to use it as a GPS? It's really huge which is both a plus and a minus.

Nice vid. Btw do you need TF to be rooted in order to tether with phone?
Where did you buy it? Manufacurer/Model Please

You need a phone that can provide a wifi hotspot that isn't ad-hoc, you don't need to be rooted on the tab.

Shouldn't need to, as the phone should look like a normal wifi network to the transformer.

This is not the case. Most android tethering is done via ad-hoc network. Not a supported connection type for other android devices unfortunately.
Exactly, there is possible issue of not connecting Android to Android.
The tethering actually works fine as long as it's not ad-hoc. I have an HTC Desire running Froyo and once the hotspot is turned on, my TF views is as any other wifi network. I've used it many times without fail.

Sorry for askign again. How did you do that through default settings or you got some app running for that on both HTC Desire and Asus TF. Kinda new side for me, love to get better understanding

It's the native "Wi-Fi Hotspot" app in 2.2. My carrier, US Cellular, didn't disable or shackle it so I can use it with my current phone data plan without an extra fee. Most other carriers require a separate plan to use this feature, unless your rooted, from my understanding. My Desire is not rooted (no pun intended).
I see, so you do phone as hot spot and then in TF enable wifi and it should pick up phone and that's it.

Np, I use the Motorola Atrix tether hack, so the TF views it as normal wifi.
Also the model of the mount is

I connect to the internet in my car via my phone which I setup as a hotspot. It appears as any other wifi access point.

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.

bluetooth keyboards will do anything the stock remote does.
I spoke with a support rep and the only thing we can do is continue hounding them to sell standalone remotes.

odd, try it on another device and see if it shows up. if not the remote may be doa, also make sure the batteries are good(they may have sent dead ones)/in the right way.
Hello guys so my nvidia shield tablet has died. I am now considering options and wandering is it still worth getting the z4?
If you don't need more than Android 7!
Nope, the display breaks easily and it is virtually impossible to find replacement.

Are they still selling this tablet? No Sony software support. Gets shower day by day. I rooted it and installed Lineage OS which saved my day.

Can you still use Remote Play if you installed another OS? I just got one off ebay so I could do that and the wife and I can Google Duo our folks on a larger screen. I don't really need it for much more than that, but I notice it's a bit sluggish, even editing Google Photos.

I just tried installing the Remote Play from Play Store and had no problem. So, you should be fine.
The Tablet Z4 with Sony's OS is definitely slow. That's the reason why I installed the custom ROM.

No problem with connection. About SD card - it supports up to 128gb. https://www.sonymobile.com/au/products/tablets/xperia-z4-tablet/specifications/#gref

Thanks, again. I saw some people say 256gb, but nothing official. Nothing on these forums either, besides 128gb.

I wish Sony would update this - more ram, new processor, maybe better battery life if possible. Sounds like they gave up on the tablet market which sucks.
I just want a 10.1" or greater modern tablet that is waterproof, with an unlockable boot loader and some custom rom support. Unless a great announcement comes out soon, I may be going samsung and researching waterproof cases.

Thanks. Do you think the kernel helped with that? I'm interested in "updating" the software somehow, but AndroPlus isn't supported anymore. I'm already out of practice with rooting and all that and don't want to risk ruining a device that was already pretty hard to find.

I don't think so. It'll just work. If not, the 'rooting' process is as simple as these instructions, if you want to go with LineageOS, which is basically an open source Android ROM.
I have a 256GB sdcard as well and I'm fully stock and I have no issues. I haven't maxed out the card, however so I'm assuming that it recognizing the card means it works.
I've had mine for 1.5 years now. It is definitely showing its age on the latest games or a ton of Chrome tabs but otherwise it works fine for me.
I would love to have a new Sony tablet but it's pretty clear that they exited the market. So, probably at the end of the year I'll get a Sammy S4 or S5.

I am using a 400GB micro SD and will upgrade to 512GB in the next days.
I see no reason why the Controller should not support Cards up to 2TB(the theoretical max for Micro SDX) - if they will ever exist.
