Hi i'm just about to get my tf300 and was wondering if it's possible to sync things between them for example photos.
Also if there is a possibility to sync game data for example if I play angry birds on my phone then the progress would be synced to my tablet??

Of course You can (using Internet connection). You just select any way of remote server (e.g. dropbox, box, sugarsync etc.) and You use fildersync(.apk). It automatically syncs all the data. If You have it installed on both of the devices it will sync after any change (if You set it so). And about game data. it also would be possible ( I think so, never tried) the same way, but You would require root access for sure. All the app data is stored in /data/data/ (if the savegames are not sored on SD Card).
Good luck.
PM for any questions.
You can use Dropbox to sync photos and other files easily
About sync your game data, you can use Titanium Backup to make a backup to Dropbox, and then restore it on your other device. Well... it's a bit difficult (sorry, I dunno an easier way :silly
There is an app called datasync that is supposed to do this for game data. There is a free version where you can manually share the items over a dropbox. The paid version is supposed to do it automatically for you, but I haven't tried it myself.
Not sure if it can share pictures or not, but it's worth looking into as an option.

I just came across this just now. According to Droid Life, there is a new google music apk when the test market was accidently released. I was curious if anyone has gotten sync to work? Possibly using titanium to remove the HTC music app then installing the new google music apk? I'm currently tied up at work and school and unable to test this out.

Look over in the development forum. I posted a copy of the leaks. The music app works without uninstalling anything.
Thanks!

Under Accounts & sync, click Google. You should now have a 'Sync Music' option.
I tried this last night and never really got it to work properly. I have like 10 gigs of music on my phone and it continued to sync all night and through today. I finally chose to shut off the sync option and run with what's on my phone. Not like I'm running out of room with this monster sd card lol. I'll let them get it officially up and running first. I just clicked on the instructions link in the other thread. They're easy to follow, all seemed to go smooth. Dunno. Maybe it does work, and I should have chose to test with just a few songs instead.
I just got my Prime and I signed into my Gmail account in the Market and not all of my apps in have downloaded on my phone are there. This is just my second android device. I am sure this has been discussed already. What do I need to do?

it should only show apps that are compatible with your device in the market app on the tablet
if you want to make sure, just go to market.android.com on a computer (maybe even the tablet) and it should show all the apps you've downloaded, then try to install and see if it lets you send it to the tablet.
it's also pretty hit or miss with free apps as far as them showing up under my apps on another device.
Hi guys,
I'm just wondering if you, when reinstalling an app using your play store account on another device, would it automatically reinstall the app data that you have for that app on your current device?
e.g. you have finished most of Angry Birds on your current phone and will be getting a new phone, but don't want to root or anything to get the same app data on the new phone. So you decide to use your play store account which is the same as your old phone to see if you can install Angry Birds with the same app data.
Is this possible?
And btw, there are no other threads on this and I wasn't sure if the person who answered me about this topic on another thread was sure what I was saying.
Thanks,

No, on most apps your data will be lost, althogh a few apps offer the possibility of storing your progress online.
On your sdcard there is an Android directory. Maybe if you take this and put it on the new sdcard (sdcard/Android), your data wont be lost, but I'm not sure...

No, Google doesn't keep a record of your progress in the apps you've downloaded, so your progress is not restored when you download it again.
I am planning to buy my son and daughter the new nexus 7 for for education purposes, they are 6 and 7 respectively, so their frontal lobe is not yet developed to make sound judgement. It is against both our family code and kyokushin oath to engage in sloth, and I certainly don't want to buy them a device that would do more damage and good.
I have discussed this with my wife that the only condition we going to buy to the tablet is that we can be sure that no gaming app ever can be installed. If I let my children sign in with their own gmail account into the nexus 7, is their parental control that I can set up that would notify me that gaming apps have been installed on their account or better block all game apps?
If all else fails, I'll just have to periodically check the tablets for gaming apps.

You can get them rooted and replace/remove the odex file after they install a game. So when u see it, you know which games they play, what types of games they play etc. So if u do that, then they wont be able to play till the odex file of the game or any apk is removed or replaced.
Happy to help
But the new Nexus 7 comes with an Android 4.3 right? And on that version of Android you can make "restricted profiles" and put only the apps you want. You can also put a password on your Google account so any time your kid tries to download any app from the Google Play store there will be a password and he won't be able to do it.

But I still want my son to be able to use his Gmail and other Google services.
I have been using a password manager program called Safe+ for years. I like the app because it has no access to internet, and I just manually export the data file and import when switching phones. Today I was switching from my old Note to the S22 Ultra, long story short, the app is no longer on the Play Store. I have years worth of data. I really don't want to go down the road of manually switching to another password manager.
Is there any way to manually move the app from my old phone to my s22 ultra? Or, is there a site that has old copies of android apps that might have this app on there? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm stuck in limbo right now. Thanks!

The only thing I can find on Google is a Safe+ app for iPhone & iOS. Same thing for alternate app stores.
Edit: I found this app extractor article if it helps. It's available on the Playstore.

Thank you for showing me this article! I was lucky enough, that after using smart switch, the app appeared on my new phone ( it took a while for apps to actually make their way to my phone, I had a lot of apps that were downloading in background ) -- So odd that it was moved ( which means it was downloaded from the playstore but for some reason, I can't find it on the play store). I am at a loss for words. But this gives me a back up plan. Now I can save the APK file to SD card as an emergency backup option. Guess now is the time to start searching for another password manager. This is going to be a painful migration. LOL

Glad to help. Personally, I use LastPass to manage my passwords. I even pay for it because I want to support them. It has it's problems, like every password manager, but overall it's a good choice.
Edit: The suggested app in that article is, itself, no longer in the appstore. A free, no-ads alternative is here.
