Hello,
Mobile Data does not currently work on any device. Please keep in mind that the Ubuntu Touch Preview is not designed to be a daily driver just yet. It is recommended for Developers and Enthusiasts who wish to play with the Operating System, most things do not work at all.
Hopefully they will have Mobile Data and Bluetooth working soon

Hello guys,
Im about to buy the tablet.. However I would like to know if Ill be able to use a 3G dongle through a usb to microusb converter to the WiFi only version?
I've found some topics on the Internet but I'm not quite sure yet..
I would be glad to save those extra 100 bucks.
Thanks,

Well, i know that this is something different, but with your smartphone (Android Device) you can share your internet using bluetooth, wich is better for battery life than a wifi hotspot. I use my Galaxy S4 AT&T to give my Xperia Tablet Z US internet, it works perfect with bluetooth, maybe not the fastest speed because limitations but is fast enough to browse the web and watch some videos.
If you still want the dongle thing, look at this guy suggestion: Click here.

Hey all,
I'm getting myself a tablet instead of a smartphone as in my opinion they are the jack of all trades and the master of none.
So what I'm looking for is a basic phone that has great battery life as well as the ability to tether the internet to my tablet, anyone have any experience that may help?
My Tablet of choice is the Asus Memo pad 10
Thanks,

I've bought to my mom a Galaxy W, but at the same price you can now find the Galaxy Ace 2 (here about 170 Euro). You can then root them, improving the battery life. Wifi tethering works without root, just download a good app from the Play store.
get a galaxy ace...decent cheap phone which supports tethering
Have you considered bluetooth tethering? It's supported by non-smartphones (basic Nokia S40 models and others) meaning your phone battery will last far, far longer if that's your main concern. Android devices can definitely connect through others via bluetooth for tethering, you would just need to test non-smartphone handsets for compatibility.
Hi,
I was thinking about installing Windows on my Ultra.
Could you please tell me if this is possible ? I have heard that some problem with the Bios may arise

It is perfectly possible if there is somebody to bother doing it. Years ago I was a happy owner of the HTC HD2....a device that could run perfectly Windows Mobile, Windows Phone, Android, Ubunto and much more Only iOS was never fully ported [ It could even dual boot Windows Phone and Android, Some folks tried even tripple boot.
There was in fact a full Windows 95 installation for the HD2. I guess newer versions of Windows would not run on it in at a decent speed. Not very usefull for daily use but a nice way to shock everybody :laugh: Sometimes I really miss this device and it's unique developer support. You could really have a totally different phone EVERY day without spending even a euro.
The HD2 is a freak of nature. It started out with Windows Mobile, so that's the reason why it can run "everything Microsoft" out of the box. Android and Ubuntu are open, so it's fairly easy to "port" them to it. iOS is closed like WM/WP, so that's why they haven't fully succeeded to get iOS up and running.
Is it possible to get Windows on the Ultra? Maybe, but i can't imagine any sane person would do it. It would've been all over the place if it was easy.
And just for the lulz, here's Engadget's HD2 review
"The HD2 is a magnificent monster. It is a hulking, intimidating, massive slab of a gadget. If you think the device looks big in photos, it's nothing compared to how it seems up close. Yes, the HD2 is large -- some might say too large -- almost less a phone and more a tablet." - Engadget
Totally agreed also a lot of drivers issues as well probably... That would be simply awesome, the Ultra is doing everything for me when it relates to multimedia and most of my office tasks can be done there that is why I was dreaming about a bluetooth mouse and keyboard and an mhl cable and I can drop my laptop but apparently it is not for now

I'm waiting for @krabappel2548 to port ubuntu touch to the ultra. If I had done any low level stuff I would give it a crack my self

Thanks for all the great info guys.
I have a question that I can't seem to find an answer.
I had my Galaxy Tab stolen along with my Macbook Air and need to replace.
This time I would like to get a fully spec'd Mac Mini and get the latest and greatest Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 or 12.1.
Anyone know how to get Samsung tablet to be used as a monitor for Mac Mini? I want to work off Tablet while connected to Mac Mini for
my video and audio work and then use the tablet later for web and other android stuff.
I would prefer a wired connection since Mac Mini has all kinds of ports that are fast.
Anyone know of a work around for this kind of setup?
I need to have both because of the heavy work I do in video and audio on Mac and the the heavy
research I do online with tablet. The pen would be a great help in both systems. I've seen on youtube that
tablets touch screen can be used on Macbooks.
Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
Ever get any guidance?
Hey Dan --
I'm considering something similar for similar reasons (video/audio editing & writing/research) .... did you ever get any advice for this set up or give it a try? Curious how it worked out ... any and all appreciated.

Dear all
I am posting it here as the developers never replies in Q&A.
Hello all,
I am a happy customer of p780 as I am not that techie so nothing is bothering me. Not even the battery life as it is giving me 1 n half day which is more than any other smartphone today.
But as you know there are no mirroring app for lenovo p780 so I am concerned that this phone will be able to screen mirroring like Samsung or not.
I got this hope when I was going through the new KitKat update and I came across wireless display. ( settings>display> wireless display) it is something to do with Intel widi feature but I don't know how to make it run and what hardware or software is required.
The hope came from the new mobile assistant which has screen sharing through USB ( magic plus ) when u connect the phone to laptop it opens lenovo suite , magic plus etc. It works night but the need to have display wireless is increased.
Please tell me how and what is needed as I am facing the same issue in my lenovo twist laptop where it says Widi is ready to use. But frankly speaking I don't know how to use.
Any suggestions please reply to get this thing working?
