Q. I have a samsung tablet 2 and first generation samsung galaxy s. Thank you.
A. You have the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.0 Correct? 7.0? 10.1?
I'm uncertain if you can use your Galaxy S as a Keyboard...but I believe you can use a mouse with your tablet. The Tab 2.0 has built-in Bluetooth, so it may be possible (I cannot guarantee) to connect a Bluetooth mouse to it. There are Bluetooth wireless keyboards in the market as well...
Assuming this is the same for most Android based (Ice cream Sandwich 4.0 and up) tablets, connecting a mouse to the device would configure the mouse buttons to the tablet's..."settings." What I mean is the buttons will NOT be the same as how you use it on a PC.
Examples:
- Right-Click does not bring up properties/options, but is the "Back" button
- Clicking the left-click button is like you tapping the screen
- Holding the left-click button down makes the option (Open new Tab, Save Image, etc) menu pop-up
Keep note, I do not own a Samsung Tablet, but I do own an ASUS Transformer Tablet (TF300T). I own the optional full-key keyboard attachment for it...and I was able to connect a wired & wireless mouse via USB port, and the mouse worked without issues. No drivers, nothing.
Bluetooth wireless mouse should be the same concept.
What is the best brand of tablet with the most features and biggest screen size?
Q. I am not a fan of the ipad but am interested to see what people think is the best tablet on the market NOT including the ipad (which i think is priced too high and popular due to consumer hype.) I am in the market for one but got overwhelmed when I went to the store. What tablet has the best features, memory, screen size etc. At the store I played with the samsung tablet and blackberry but I don't know much about either. thanks
A. Apple achieves high levels of fit and finish on their products, but, yes, they're relatively expensive. It sounds like you'd prefer the more open approach of Android tablets, which also happen to have much better cameras than the iPad. That's certainly fine. Here are some other considerations...
If cellular service is important, you may want to consider which tablet your favorite carrier supports:
Verizon:Galaxy Tab 10.1, iPad 2, Xoom, and Galaxy Tab
T-Mobile:G-Slate, Streak 7, and Galaxy Tab
Sprint:PlayBook and Galaxy Tab
AT&T:iPad 2 and Galaxy Tab
None:Eee Slate, Slate 500, TouchPad, Thrive, Eee Pad TF101, Iconia Tab A500, Archos 101, Archos 70, and NOOK Color
For overall value, the ASUS Eee Transformer (TF101) has surprisingly good specs for under $400: Android 3.1, 10.1 inch 1280x800 IPS (like iPad, but bigger and higher resolution) display, up to 9 hours of battery life (16 hours if optional dock added), optional ability to dock with keyboard, 1 GHz Tegra 250 ARM CPU with 1 GB RAM, good array of ports (mini HDMI, SD, micro SD), preloaded Polaris Office 3.0 for editing documents (.doc), spreadsheets (.xls) and presentation (.ppt) files. Note, though, no 3G (however people report success in tethering it to smart phones).
If Windows OS compatibility or a digitizer pen is important to you, go for the ASUS Eee Slate or HP Slate 500. The biggest differences between those are that the ASUS has a better display (12.1 inch AFFS 1280x800) than the HP (8.9 inch TFT 1024x600) but is larger, heavier and more expensive.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the thinnest (0.336 inches) and lightest (1.25 lbs) the big-screen (greater than 9 inch) tablets.
If high-end video recording is important to you, consider the LG G-Slate or BlackBerry PlayBook, both of which can record at 1080p. The still cameras on those devices are pretty good too: G-Slate has Dual 5 MP rear cameras and a 2MP front camera; PlayBook has 5MP front and 3MP rear cameras.
Motorola Xoom: Heavier and thicker than both the iPad or Galaxy Tab, the Xoom's advantage is that it has HDMI out and micro USB ports. It also has a 5MP rear camera compared to Tab's 3MP and iPad's lousy 0.7MP.
How to connect a ps3 controller to a samsung galaxy tab 10.1?
Q. I wanna use onlive to the full but i need to connect a controller, how can i do this? Btw i do not want to root my device to do this :-!
A. Simple but tricky, I need 10 point :)
1. Download Sixaxis Controller from the Android Market.
2. Now download and install SixaxisPairTool. It is a PC utility that will be used to pair the PS3 controller with your phone.
Alternatively, you can also use âMotionInJoyâ for Windows or use a utility called âsixpairâ for Linux.
3. Connect the PS3 controller to your PC with its mini-USB cable, and switch on the power with the PS button.
4. Start the SixaxisPairTool program in your PC. It will install the required drivers for the PS3 controller.
5. Turn on bluetooth on your Android phone.
6. Go to the Sixaxis Controller app in your phone and tap on the âStartâ button for bluetooth server to initiate.If you get an âError: Missing required protocolâ message, your device is not supported.
7. Now go to âSettings > Language & keyboardâ in your phone and check âSixaxis Controllerâ box.
8. If the connection is established in Sixaxis Controller app, you should now pair your controller with your Android phone.
9. Your phoneâs bluetooth address is shown at the bottom of the main Sixaxis Controller app window and will look something like 1A:3C:13:00:21:C2 â Enter this number in the âChange Master:â text box in the Sixaxis Pair Tool program in your PC and click âUpdateâ.
This process only needs to be done the first time a controller is used on a different device, so if you only use the controller on one phone, you will only need to do it once.
10. Your âCurrent Masterâ and âChange Masterâ values should be the same now. This means your PS3 controller and phone are paired!
11. On your phone, in the Sixaxis Controller app, tab the âChange Input Methodâ button and select âSixaxis Controllerâ.
12. Unplug the PS3 controller from the mini-USB cable and the blinking red lights on the controller should stop now. Now press the PS button on the controller to switch it on.
13. A single red light will stay on now and on your phone in the Sixaxis Controller app, you will see âClient connected: 1â³.
14. Thatâs it! The PS3 controller is now connected and works with your Android device!
15. To change button functions or map different keys, go to âPreferencesâ of the Sixaxis Controller app on your phone.
Enjoy ^ ^
