Why do some people find this concept hard?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbur-force:
OK... heres the thing ... its my 40th birthday coming up and the wife wants to buy me a slightly more special gift than usual :)

Do i:

a) end up with something that she chooses herself :p

b) ask for a transformer :D

She currently has a kindle and is raving about that so im trying to figure out what id use a tablet for over a 'kindle + HTC Desire' combo.

The transformer has no 3G (yet) so i wouldnt use it for web or email whilst out and about.

The transformer has a shiny screen so wont be as good for ebooks as a kindle.

Ive seen the asus commercial so i know the 'standard' suggested uses for a transformer - but im no teen and cant stand up on a skateboard :p

so .... what do you guys use your transformer for in the 'real world' ? especially with no 3G ??

I LOVE gadgets but im just struggling to justify the expense :D

Please help me :p

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Putzy:
Right now, I'm using mine as a laptop replacement. I haven't had to turn my Macbook on since getting ths out of the box. Its a lot easier to just pick up and use... so if you just do casual browsing, this is ideal. I have my iMac for when I'm doing 'serious' work.

If they are flash based, then you should be able to. I haven't tested them, but everything else flash seems to work well, so I don't see why not.

Admittedly I did buy mine to use as a laptop replacement, but I'm waiting for the keyboard dock to arrive. At the moment I'm using it as an ebook reader and for general browsing - it drives my girlfriend nuts as I'm always playing with it!!

I'm not a facebook fan so can't say for sure, but it does have flash, so I don't see why not.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GarJones27:
You could tether your Desire via Android AP which would essentially give you internet where ever you are. I did this with my XOOM and it worked very well. I had to return it though because the Transformer just seemed like a more practical option for me.

I've played Facebook Scrabble on it. It's a bit picky about keypresses to select and place the tiles, but it's usable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
I use my Xoom (to be replaced with a Transformer once it's available in the US) for everything I use my notebook for except long-form writing, and I don't do that on the Xoom only because there's no physical keyboard. With the Transformer+keyboard dock, I think my HP Envy notebook will get much less work and might even go to the wife.

So, that means I do all of the following on my tablet:

1. Browsing, including all but the most hardcore research

2. Newsfeed reading

3. Email triage (best device for this by far)

4. Ebook reading for all but the longest reading sessions (when I use my Nook)

5. Ebook annotations (for research, and it's great for that)

6. Casual gaming (of course, I still play Crysis 2 and the like on the desktop)

7. Forum browsing/posting using Tapatalk

8. Note taking using the outstanding Evernote client (not optimized for Honeycomb but still quite usable)

9. Light blog posting (long-form and complex graphics still done on the notebook)

The instant-on nature of the device and the extremely long battery life means it's far more convenient to use, in more places, and more ad hoc. Whether you're sitting on the couch, lying in bed, or whatever you can grab a tablet and start using without waiting for it to boot/wake up, finding a flat surface to put it on, plugging into an outlet, etc. as you do a notebook or netbook.

The bottom line is that I'm using my Xoom even more than I thought I would. I have to give Apple credit for recognizing the value of a relatively light device running a mobile OS with really long battery life. And I think Honeycomb offers more value than iOS because it's actively useful, not just an app launcher.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djklmnop:
I went through the decision making process as you did. I had the Amazon Kindle 2, but for me, I don't read as much as I should. So I sold it off and bought a Nook Color. Rooted it and used it to read news, manage ebay sales, emails, etc. After a while, the Nook felt too small for me to get anything done. And I required a real laptop for any true productivity when producing documents or typing out an email. A few weeks ago I sold my Nook in anticipation for the Transformer's release and I'm a bit bummed with the availability to the US.

Bottom line, if you do a lot of serious reading, then use an e-ink (Kindle) reader. Your eyes will thank you for it. If you are like me who does a lot of casual reading, then get the transformer. If you do both, then get both. Guys usually demand, i mean, expect (:D) less for ourselves than our counterparts, so once in a while, it's okay to treat ourselves to something nice, twice!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drummr8:
Kind of off-topic, but kind of related I guess:

What do you guys think of having this vs a real netbook? I was originally planning to get a DM1z, then an ASUS Eee 1215B (both use the E-350 Fusion processor). Then I discovered the Transformer. I can't decide if I should get a netbook or just get the transformer with keyboard. I will primarily be using it for leisure activities and also some school/note taking. Suggestions?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dnaL0R:
haha, i'm selling my dm1z to get the transformer~

the e350 apu is slightly underpowered for me and 6 hours of [real-world] battery life is nothing to write home about...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilbur-force:
thanks guys :D

can always depend on the XDA bunch when i need convincing over a gadget :p

transformer ordered ... arrives a week on Thursday :cool:

will keep you posted on performance etc ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
A netbook is... well... just a netbook. It's an underpowered Intel processor (that's still not as efficient as an ARM) running a heavyweight OS (assuming you're running Windows) and with the necessary compromises in battery life. It's usable only in the standard netbook format, that is, clamshell that generally requires a flat surface to use on. It can't comfortably be used standing or lying down.

A Transformer is both a "netbook" in that it has a keyboard and can be used for tasks that need one. But, it can also be used in the tablet format, that is, with the touchscreen and in whatever situation (lying down, standing, etc.). It also runs a lightweight OS that, while a bit more limited in functionality (although less so every day) is also made to optimize power, and a power-sipping ARM processor that still provides decent performance. So, instead of 6 hours of battery life or so in the "netbook" mode, it gets 16 hours or so.

Really, the Transformer is a netbook+tablet hybrid that has the best features of both, while minimizing their weaknesses.

I'm using the GingerVillain rom, but I was wondering is there a way I can make my device S-OFF whilst using this ROM?

Also I was wondering why my Orange 3G/H signal is so rubbish, it nearly always ends up being on G internet? Anyone else have this problem?

I'm trying to install CWM 3.0.0.5 from recovery, it comes up in the new colours after installing, but on the next reboot it's back to the old one? Do I need to root again with unrevoked using the 3.0.0.5 zip file?

Also is there any was I can run alpharev without having to burn to a CD? I've tried running a virtual box but no luck?

Thanks for reading hope somebody can help.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 852456:
1. This is because the rom manager doesnt support CWM 3.0.0.5 yet but only: 2.5.x.x

2. The CD option is 100% working and it is quick and almost safe imo.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
You can burn it on pendrive as bootable usb drive, or use VM like Parallels Desktop (i used it, and worked fine)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
I used virtual box, but I had to load specific drivers, and follow alternate instructions. A total PITA, but it works.

I only used UnRevoked because I forgot which other program I used for my previous phone. Afterwards, I now have an app called zysploit running all the time ((((

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
I download a package called "universal usb installer 1.8" Do a search for it. Now, listen up.

As far as I can remember, after extracting, I had to tell Device Manager to install the driver specifically, Not browse for them. Because windows will always look for a signed driver. I had to ignore the normal message that it wasn't signed.

If I'm not mistaken, you need to load the Android Bootloader interface (with phone plugged in, USB debugging enabled)

This "should" allow unrevoked to interface with the phone.

Hi everyone I really hope someone of you can help me with this issue

This is my coinfiguration

Nexus One, with the latest radio & HBoot installed, ClockWork recovey 3.0.0.5 and original SD as memory card (4GB)

After wiping everything from recovery and formatting the Mcard with 128MBswap & 512MBExt I am no longer able to install any CyanogenMod 7 release either nightly or stable. I did try to clear storage from bootloader and replacing the RA 2.2.1 without success. At the moment the only rom I can install is the MIUI and the stock one GRI40, all Cyanogen got stuck after the boot. Is any other way to do a kind of hard reset at the phone?

Many thanks in advance

EDIT: apologize I did post into a wrong area, MOD please move to the correct place

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindfrost82:
The Nexus One doesn't need a swap partition, try re-partitioning your card without that.

Try to download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?bxfijcp6f6bf1me

Then flash it from Amon-RA. It'll format your system partition too.

I can't tell you how many users PMed me after using that format utility to find out that when they try to flash a new ROM, they only can boot to recovery, no matter what they do.

Try this:

Install the recovery following what is said here in "Second Method (manual method)"

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.p...pdate_Guide#Second_Method_.28manual_method.29

BUT use this recovery http://mirrorbrain.cyanogenmod.com/cm/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.4-passion.img instead of the 3.0.0.5.

After that, flash this file

http://www.mediafire.com/?bxfijcp6f6bf1me

(it deeply wipes everything away, thank temasek for this stuff)

Then flash CM7 release and Gapps following what is said here

Lg can solve the problem

Exactly! I phone my local support and said this and they were really happy to have a customer feedback.

[Optimus 7 General] WildMoves:
Done.

They told me no one had reported about this issue yet, and that they would call me back somewhere over the next few weeks, after their engineers discussed it.

In other words, we need a lot more complaints to achieve this...

Stupid question I know, but I need my 8 posts to post links for my mini PDAir LG Optimus 7 Aluminum case review.
[Optimus 7 General] Ineedtoys:
Agreed the LG screen is ridiculously bright on both the Lo and Automatic setting in darkness.

I can't use it in bed as it lights up the whole room, and it causes far too much glare in the car at night so no good for SatNav etc.

Surely it would be better for battery life too if the backlight wasn't burning a hole in my eyes!

Data from link above. Obviously LG need to recalibrate their presets:

Brightness Comparison (White Point)

Phone Low Medium High

HTC Surround 10.4 nits 183.1 nits 405.7 nits

LG Optimus 7 130.4 nits 259.1 nits 381.2 nits

Samsung Focus 61.9 nits 143.1 nits 234.3 nits

LG Service Sites - email your local office to request a fix:

http://www.lg.com/global/supports/service-sites.jsp

Don't know if they will bother fixing this on the E900 (here's hoping) although you would expect it to included in the refresh Mango E906?
