It is known to work on both HTC Evo 4G and Samsung Galaxy TAB 10.1. It is likely you had some network configuration issues. I hope you will see this and try again.

I installed this primarily to use with hwinfo and a sidebar gadget for monitoring my pc's health. With this installed I can check anything from cpu voltage to the amount of video ram used and anything inbetween and all on my tablet anywere in the house. Using it on a galaxy tab pro 10.1 with 4.4.2 and the pc is running win 7 64. A very useful tool and easier to read on the tablet, not likely to use my old windows phone as a sideshow device again. It's shame about the advert at the bottom of the screen though.
