Best Windows 8 theme/Rom? - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

After seeing Windows RT being demoed, I am interested one seeing what it would feel like on a Tf201. I know you cannot have windows 8 on the prime, but does anyone know of a Theme or Rom that can be flashed to make it look like windows 8. Is there even such thing made?

Quad core with companion core monitor app

Does anyone know where to get that app that was on the demo TP's? I saw it in one of the review video's, it showed how much load was on each core after the companion core was maxed out...
Cant find one in the market, TY.

You will only get it from nVidia.
Unfortunately, I believe Sontin may be correct. That was an extremely cool application, and anyone who loves the Prime has probably tried to find it at one time or another. I never had any luck, and I am usually pretty good at ferreting out what I want from somewhere or other. That app is not in the wild, as far as I can tell. Shame, since it would be "fun and educational" to play with.
If anyone can prove my statements wrong, I gladly invite you to do so, with a link, of course.
Maybe a Developer could make one?

From what I understand, the companion core is invisible to the Android kernel. Likely NVIDIA had a custom kernel running on their test units and demo units to allow the companion core to be seen by the kernel.
Thus, it's my theory that even if we had that app, we'd need ASUS' test kernel for it to work properly.
I'd definitely love to see this. Even with .14, I'm not convinced we're yet getting the best battery life out of this thing, and I'm wondering if the system isn't dropping down to the companion core as often/as quickly as it should. I'm burning about 15%/hour when browsing, using Greader, that sort of stuff, and around 10%/hour when simply ebook reading using the B&N Nook app (at lowest brightness). I'm thinking we should be seeing better than that.

Cool app, but doesn't seem like it shows the companion core, unless I'm missing something.
Found the video http://www.slashgear.com/nvidia-tegra-2-quad-core-mobile-processor-revealed-and-detailed-09194118/

I found the video and the link is in the thread... If people can make a cpu monitor that showes a dual core as a quad core because of the multi threading itdoes then someone can dupelicate this this app...

When the first demo`s of the TP went out XDA posted A data dump of one after they rooted it , there should be a copy of that app in that code!

Oooh! I'd forgotten all about that...
Yeah, the companion core is supposed to be inaccessible. We'd have to cook up some custom kernels and some other hardcore stuff to even get their app to work I would think.

That was from demo unit at Gamestop. Not a system dump from actual demo device Asus used in videos that showed that. Worth a look though. Let us know if you find something

Windows and iOS on GTab possible?

Hi guys,
I have a weird question i was thinking about how it will be awesome to see Windows 8 on GALAXY Tab 10.1 so is there a way to use Windows 7 or 8 on GALAXY Tab 10.1 P7500 or evem iOS.
Thanks.

Definitely not ios apple would never allow that in a million years dont know about windows but I think the tegra 2 chip would pose problems

The on the iOS i agree 100%,but i really think the Windows 8 Tablet version would be good on the GALAXY Tab cause so far there isn't an Quad Core Windows 8 tablets anouncments so i think it would run smoothly on the Tegra 2 Processor specially cause it runs VERY SMOOTHLY on android.

the likely hood of a dev spending time to port over win8 is very unlikely everyone is all about ICS and making that play well with our tab.

Flash Professional CS5 Like Application

I am looking for a application somewhat the same as Flash Professional CS5 on Windows/Mac (probably dumbed down). Is there anything close to that on the android market that i could buy? Thanks in advanced, and if you could link me the best stylus for a Transformer Prime tf201 i'd be very greatfull
There is nothing similar.

Multitouch trackpad for Androidx86 installed Eeepc

i looked at everywhere on the net, but i couldn't find any useful information about how to use Multitouch feature. I don't known others but if you make an app for this i'm definitely ready to buy. Can you port the feature from Asus Transformer series ?
Thanks

Nope. Despite being capable of running it, Windows 8 is a closed OS and therefore you'd run into licensing issues.
Though that being said, I think the screen resolution may be too low on the Prime and also not sure(I may be corrected on this) but I think Windows 8/RT won't run on the NVIDIA Tegra architecture
Thanks for the reply!

Lol.... Windows RT is not able to run on tegra 3? - bull.....t. Look at Microsoft Surface RT - it has a Tegra 3 chipset.
Prime is not able to run "Windows 8" because this is system for x86 and x64 architecture.
There is only possibility to run ( theoretically ) Windows RT because this is OS for ARM procesors like tegra 3 but Win RT is OEM system and completly locked. I think isn not possible to port this to prime.
I see 2 ways....
Sold prime and buy M$ Surface RT
Or...
Sold prime ...and wait little bit for M$ Surface Pro with full Windows 8 - (I chose this path - prime is completly not usable for me)
