Splashtop HD vs preinstalled software - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I just bought splashtop HD for 9.99 and it works great. A few hours after purchasing I saw that the prime comes with this preinstalled. I was wondering if it is the exact same version (with the same features) and if I should try to get a refund because the tab already comes with this app.
thanks

I used the pre installed version works fine I would get a refund!

Where did you guys order your Prime from? I don't see it on mine (Amazon).

Best buy version go into the app my cloud then press my desktop there it is

I emailed them for a refund and they will do it. They said the version pre installed on the prime doesn't have internet discovery. I'm not sure exactly what is meant by that though

I can use mine anywhere in the world to view my desktop it is under MyCloud

internet discovery
Hope this helps a little I thought oases the gmail thing on the preinstallation version infect I just entered my gmail so I think they're telling you wrong info unless I'm miss understanding

You're right. Internet discovery is working with the preinstalled version so I'll use that

Glad I could help

Thanks for saving me $10, I had no idea the Prime came with Splashtop for free, I had no idea it was hidden in the MyCloud feature. I had the older version of Splashtop installed from Getjar (no internet discovery) and was thinking of upgrading.

I love splashtop it's so useful and cool to show off

Legit! It really is splashtop HD. I already had the original slashtop but the HD version looks stunning in comparison

Thanks for the heads up guys, didn't know where to find it. What an amazing piece of software to get included. Using it to type this reply!!

Wanted to let you guys know that getjar has splashtop for free right now.

To bad the generic looks like freakin 8bit lolz

Thanks for posting this. Who knows how long it would have been before I discovered it was built in. It's pretty cool so far.

I'm only afraid that the preinstalled Splashtop HD does not follow all the updates served to the market version and as Tegra3 is brand new I believe this app will be going heavy optimization in the neares future.

Updates are a given with Asus

Don't worry about getting updates, changes the non-HD version came with the TF101, and and they updated it several times, and including upgrading it to HD.
Updates have always been a strong suit with Asus.

I dont have it preinstalled on mine. Where are you finding it? Ive never used it before but was just looking at it in the market and i would love to try it.

[Q] USA Today for Note.

I've searched everywhere I can think of but can't find a compatible version that works on the Note. The one for the Kindle Fire runs but complains that the Amazon app market isn't installed and then exits. I found an old version that looked like the one on the IPhone (ugh).
Anyone have better luck?
Regards,
Stuart.

Thanks for the tip on installing the Amazon Store. Although the version of the app there is the old phone version and not the tablet one I wanted (sorry I want specific in my initial post).
With the store installed I could use the one I found on the net.
That begs the next question. What does USA today have to do with the Amazon store?

Free version HD doesn't show up for prime just for OG Transformer
Agree, I think that there should be an HD version for the Prime and other tablets besides of the Kindle Fire, it does not have to be free, this game worth the money
downloaded it last night, way more fun than the others imo. 3 stars on all my levels so far
The Google Market says the $2.99 HD version is not compatible with the TF201. WTF? There are reviews from people with the TF101 that says it work and people with Galaxt Tab. Why no Transformer Prime love?

Yeah... Same with my galaxy nexus. But for some reason it says my htc one s is ok (even though it's not quite a hd display). So i had to dl it to the htc, extract the apk and manually install it on the tp & gn... Rovio is to blame i guess... Works great on TP, just a shame that i played 40 levels in the normal version to begin with :/
*edit* scratch that... They fixed it and it is now installed properly via market on all my ****... I do wish they would at some point do some cloud sync of level progress... i ALWAYS forget to back up my progress :/
Perhaps it just became available because I just downloaded it to my Prime.

I still dont see an HD version in google play. I do have the regular free version installed.

What exactly is the point of the HD version? It looks 100% the same as the regular version on a tablet.
Can't believe it, yesterday I paid for the Premium version because the HD was not available for the Prime.. and now it is? that is not fair..
is it really different? for me this Space game does not have better graphics than the Rio's edition.

I kinda had a feeling that was going to happen and held off buying premium for that reason. Maybe Rovio will give you a refund.

You'd also need special drivers for it to support wifi i guess.
I actually like the design, thought it would get alot worse and i think i'll take one But they could have made another port on the back side somehow, so you could plug in the charging cable while the dongle is attached.

Cool thanks for link and pictures. Maybe this dongle will improve WIFI for some as well.
Well maybe this is why they wont send my RMA back they were waiting on the dongle because according to the website its been done for weeks now but they wont mail it to me and it went in for wifi and gps problems. maybe now the they will send it BACK!!
Great Article!
MIND OVER MATTER
IMHO it looks like crap...totally ruins the sleek lines of the TFP. Ill take one, but I don't see myself bothering to slap this thing on much. Would have preferred a new backplate.
Looks better than I thought it would, thanks for sharing

kind of kills the point in a transformer that can't transform after using the GPS dongle
I expect a newer case with this dongle incorporated into the design. I also hope there is a possibility of a pass thru charging port.
P.S. is Asus just giving us TFP owners this for nothing? Is there a mailing list out that we have to sign up to get it?

More information will be posted in the "Unofficial ASUS" sticky tomorrow (4/16), and a sign-up form will be available then. It's going to be free, and available to every Prime owner (at least in the US, but probably worldwide).
Lots of threads on the topic, including that main one.
Looks... beefy? Passthrough charging is almost necessary. Thats my biggest hope atm. Looks like it will fit in the mounts that are out there, too.

I'm thinking I might pass unless I sell the Prime.

OP instead of using the stock browser try dolphin browser, its one of the better ones on the android market. been using it for a little while now and its awesome. Should load that link for you.
the page works on my i-pad ...
Even if you put a wallpaper up that says
"This is an Asus Transformer Prime Quad Core Tablet running Android OS".
you'll still get "Nice iPad" or "Is that the new iPad" because most people are brain dead on technology and Apple gets all the press coverage these days.
Good luck

Yeah I have friends that know that I would never own a device running ios and they still asked if they could look at my new ipad
People, people, people...
You're not taking advantage of a great opportunity here. When they ask 'Is that the new iPad?' say 'Yes - would you like to look at it..'
Show them how cool it is.. how easy to use it is... if you have the demo games, how well it plays high end games. If you have the dock, show them how it plugs in.. etc...
Then when they're all excited... imagine the moment they walk into a Best Buy or even better, Apple Store and try to buy a new iPad with a dock...
*heeheehee*
Sidenote: when I have it in the dock, I get asked 'is that a netbook?' and then I detach the tablet, which looks like you're tearing it off - which just freaks some people.
Be sure to look angry and make a ripping sound when you do it.
"Is that an iPad?'
"No it's thinner, lighter, and more powerful than an iPad."
FACT.

Yes, it is far better. It's the best office suite I have used, and I've used most of the major ones.
Do I have to pull the apk or do some sort of trick to have this show up on my prime?
It doesn't seem to be showing my prime in the list.
EDIT: NVM for some reason it was hidden -_-
Please, note that this is the newer version - 6

Awesome! Been waiting on a deal like this. SOOO HAPPY YAAYYY!!!!
PSA
For those that snagged it and hate the ad for the dictionary, here's how to change it to something less obnoxious:
Open Office Suite Pro & close it again
Using a file manager or adb navigate to data/data/com.mobisystems.editor.office_registered/shared_prefs/
Open AdsPrefs.xml
Change <boolean name="haveAd" value="true" /> to <boolean name="haveAd" value="false" />
Save the file
Open Office Suite Pro
The ad will be gone and will be replaced with a 'rate this app' link, which I prefer.
Even though it's May 11th, I just bought this for $0.99. Thanks for this, I was looking for an alternative for QuickOffice Pro since it doesn't have an interface designed for tablets. To get QuickOffice with a tablet interface I would have to spend $20 on their "HD" version.
Slight rant, but I find it stupid that I have to spend more money on an app to buy an HD or "For Tablets" version of apps I ALREADY own.
Just snagged it here also.
Thanks for the heads up
I was able to buy the app even today (13.5.). Thanks a lot for the info man, much better than Polaris
For those interested, the offer is still there...
Btw, how can images inserted into a word document from a powerpoint be displayed properly in Office suite pro?
I am not able to see the images - it's just a grey box with a question mark at the top left corner.
Thanks in advance. cheers...
thank you!
Just bought it for .99. Thx
