[Eee Pad Transformer General] effwun:
Asus Transformer support is the worst ever. Evvveeeeeeerrrrrrr. If you can, at almost any cost, avoid dealing with Asus Transformer support, do it. (I say Transformer support because support for every other Asus product is handled separately.)

I was one of the ones who ordered it from NewEgg when they had it on sale the Thursday or whatever before the actual release date. I got mine on 4/26, realized the wall adapter didn't work and called up for an RMA on the wall adapter the 27th. After realizing how slowly the USB cable charges it, I called Asus back up to try to get a new wall adapter, and I was willing to pay for it. It was literally five or six calls before I got through to someone without being 'disconnected' (after being on hold for five or ten minutes) once I got to the Transformer support line. Their support staff is so incompetent, they didn't even know they had a cross ship RMA available. So, I fill out the cross ship RMA form, give them my credit card and all that, and the replacement wall adapter is supposed to ship within 48 hours (from Friday the 29th). Wednesday the 4th I call Asus AGAIN to see where my wall adapter is, has it been shipped, etc. No one can give me any information about it, and they tell me they'll have a supervisor look into it and get back to me within 48 hours. So, I call back two days later again (Friday) and it's the same bull****, no one in the customer service center knows a ***king thing, no one is in a position, apparently, to authorize a shipment of a WALL ADAPTER. Apparently these wall adapters are made out of gold.

So, the tl;dr version: For the Transformer Asus doesn't have so much of a "customer service" department as they have a "customer **ck you" department. Two weeks after my original RMA, ten days after a cross ship RMA, I've got nothing except a steaming pile of hate for Asus. And my Transformer pretty much sits connected on a USB charger 20 hours a day so I can get it up to *maybe* 80% charge and use it for a few hours at night.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Eggroll822:
FYI, I just sent off the transformer to the facility and it should be there at maximum Monday. Let you know how long it takes...

I don't think there is getting around the light bleed issues? It seems everyone has been experiencing some level of bleed?

p.s. paid shipping there Asus handles shipping back to you.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rpavich:
Just a general question; why in the world would a consumer have to pay to get a defective product shipped back for replacement????

does that makes sense?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Eggroll822:
I have no idea, generally most companies send you a box or envelope, at least an electronic label you can paste on a box. :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] liltyke:
I agree 100%,it pisses me off.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] haupman:
Are there any updates to how long it took the RMA process? I am debating if I should just send mine back to Amazon or Asus at this point.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] liltyke:
I sent a TF to ASUS via Fedex and according to Fedex it arrived 5/13. ASUS showed that they received it 5/16. ASUS shipped what looks to be a new (different s/n listed) TF 5/17 and it is scheduled to arrive at my house 5/23. Good turn time. I wished they could have overnighted the TF back to me, and still pissed that I had to pay shipping to get it to them.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Asadroid:
how i do a RMA with them? i filled out the form on the asus support page but im not sure if they are giving me the RMA
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vipergrm:
If you bought it from Amazon then email them saying that you tried contacting Asus directly and you are not getting a reply. I did this a few times and they sent me out a replacement without any hassle next day delivery. They also give you 30 days to return the product at their expense. If Amazon had it in stock I definitely would have bought it from them but only BestBuy (UK) had them at the time. Nor sure what the UK returns system is like for them.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] flight777:
Paying for the return shipping is very normal in the Netherlands. However, the odd thing is... mine will be RMAed as well but Asus arranged DHL pick up... (without me asking for it):confused::rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] haupman:
My only question with Amazon is, how long will it be until they have one in stock they can send me? They don't have any in stock to sell at the moment.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akarol:
Anyone able to get a perfect display back after asking for them to fix the light bleed? I'm wondering if it's even possible.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Eggroll822:
My tablet has been stuck in repair for almost 2 weeks now, has anyone rma'd for unbalanced speakers? Kind of bothering me!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] t0dbld:
God hate to add another horror story, but i called and let asus know that OTA completely bricked my unit, not only was tech, and cust. service absolutely horrible, (I believe there tech use fake names to US customers to sound Local) but i was told that my only option was to pay to send them my transformer that is less 2 weeks old , and they will attempt to repair it which may take 2 weeks or longer !!?!! WTF is wrong with this company? btw i was also hung up on 4 times, and every time put on hold was the same message telling me about there outstanding warranty department and policies (i was told there is no warranty policies for transformer!!) I like the toy but I am considering shipping it back to best buy for a return because ASUS is a joke
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jrizk07:
they do tell you that, if you send it in for repair you have to cover shipping to them and they'll ship back.

I sent my unit in for an RMA on a broken power button and I got it back 2 days after I shipped it. It's really quick and you can watch the status of what they're doing online.

Either that or purchase an extended warranty (accidental plan) from best buy and just go through them. They'll usually just swap it out for a new one especially if it's only a few weeks old.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] t0dbld:
thank you, i hope its as quick as yours ... but that is far from the industry standard, I am a tech junkie and buy 5 + devices a year and a computer or 2 , i have never paid for shipping , and Almost always are over nighted a replacement immediately, the standard is to take a credit card to assure you send back the broken one.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Eggroll822:
Fyi took about 2 weeks for mine but it might be a rare occasion, had something that might of been my fault. However it did mention that it was waiting for customer confirmation and I never got an email took about 3 days to resolve that.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] BWolf56:
Hey guyz,

I just updated ADW Ex and it's broken.. so basically just starting this thread to say:

DO NOT UPDATE IT :) (just yet)
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Mauijpm:
I noticed the same thing. I would scroll through screens and it would land on the middle of the next screen. Definitely broken.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] BWolf56:
Noticed that the text is going under the icons under them? Really annoying lol

EDIT: On 4D drawer.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] XeoNoX:
whats the latest good version?? u shoulda just release the older working version with a higher build # to avoid confusion.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] BWolf56:
I'm running 1.3.2 atm. Which is the broken version.

Duno what's the previous version tho :o But any version before that one was working!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rajendra82:
ADW EX 1.3.2 is working fine for me. No issues at all.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] BWolf56:
It's not any big issues but if you try the 4d drawer, you'll see that the text is being overlaped by the icons under it. Also, the pages skip insanely fast in certain drawer.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] skeepon:
1.3.1 was the previous version. and it had no issues
[Captivate Themes and Apps] rajendra82:
I am using 4D vertical drawer, 3 rows landscape, 4 rows portrait. The text is positioned properly relative to the icons, and pages do not skip.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] BWolf56:
That's your personnal setup. Although, I like it with 5/5 where it does mess up.

I was mostly saying for other people who might use the same setup as mine.

Page doesn't skip with the 4d drawer but it does with a couple others. The transition is actually just a bit too fast/sensitive.

Anyway, it obviously doesn't affect you. Like I mentionned, I posted for other people who might not use your personnal setup.

This is first update, as far as I know for Non-US milestone 2. Still didn't installed due to lack of time. Looks like they just update UK,FR and DE devices to Italian firmware. At least we got something...

Start up here:

direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/support/update/
[Milestone 2 General] JackStoreytime:
Currently Flashing UK SBF to install this: Just a bugfix tho :/
[Milestone 2 General] oTToToTenTanz:
enhanced phone and calling stability

updates google services/apps

enhanced calling performance

enhanced security...

if you ask me, really lame :(
[Milestone 2 General] JackStoreytime:
and said something about touchscreen *PLEASE BE 3 FINGER INPUT!*
[Milestone 2 General] aislen:
Can't install update now so, can you please, share with us your experience. Does screen sensor works better?
[Milestone 2 General] PhoenixTank:
Just downloaded this.

As a heads up:

The UK update is identical to the one that leaked on here a few days ago.

Compared the hashes for the extracted sbfs for both the leak and the one MSU downloads.

.sbf (not .sbf.gz):

CRC32: 7617F5CE

MD5: 94E43968E736D1A89767170FCFB88F42

SHA-1: 3B83020E6E6731ECA74984BC7EA72677FD1AD169

I didn't have a chance to get at the gzipped sbf before Moto software update extracted it, but I would assume it matched the leak too.

Regardless, the underlying data matches.

As far as experience goes, haven't flashed back to UK 2.2.2 again yet, but before it rebooted a lot. I have a feeling this was down to Milestone Overclock not being fully compatible with the newer version. I also know that the wifi STILL cut out for me.

Performance was better overall, and I think it squashed the double typing bug with hw keyboard.
[Milestone 2 General] oTToToTenTanz:
So, since this is the leak - no 3 point touch screen. I even read the guess that it is hardware wise kept to 2 points...
[Milestone 2 General] oTToToTenTanz:
Sorry for doublepost... :(

Someone even said it re-occured after updating his MS2
[Milestone 2 General] MegaBubbletea:
Aww...no update for AU region. =(
[Milestone 2 General] PhoenixTank:
Quite possibly true - I had only tested it for a little while. As soon as the wifi cut out I swore and bought a HTC Desire Z.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
Indentical to the previously leaked 2.2.2 SBF?

I have been using that version for some time now, wondering whether to flash back to 2.2 and re-flash this pack.
[Milestone 2 General] PhoenixTank:
As I posted earlier, yes.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
Thanks. hmm, then i will stick to the present one.

interesting, they only used a patch about 25mb to make such a difference. wonder what took them a few months.
[Milestone 2 General] cindylove:
For me the Wlan now works fine. The connection did not cut off anymore on mixed wlan with n.
[Milestone 2 General] fedegin:
there is no update to argentinian M2! can i install the leaked?
[Milestone 2 General] pieuchni:
I did install this official patch but could not feel any change.

I still hope to see a Gingerbread update for Motorola Milestone 2 soon.
[Milestone 2 General] neumaennl:
can anyone confirm that the headphone button doesn't work anymore with the stock music app since the update? :confused:
[Milestone 2 General] StevePritchard:
What button do you mean?

Cheers,

Steve.
[Milestone 2 General] neumaennl:
I don't know how many button you have on your headphones.

I was referring to the headphones that came with the phone.

They have a hidden button next to the microphone.

That button allows you to pick up and end a call.

It could also be used to pause and unpause music playback.

Since the update I can't pause and unpause music playback using that button anymore in the preinstalled media player. Can anybody confirm this?

Picking up calls still works, though and if I install another media player (e.g. music mod), I can pause and unpause music playback with the headphone button in those players.

I hope this makes more sense now.
[Milestone 2 General] StevePritchard:
Yes, it does make sense. I never used those headphones, in fact, I can't remember it coming with any, but I guess it did and I just ignored them.

I thought you were talking about an on-screen button.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Milestone 2 General] neumaennl:
Unbelievable! I tried and played around for several days, installed and unistalled various other music players from the market that didn't have the features I want an now all of a sudden the preinstalled music player can be controlled by the headset again!

Yay :-)

EDIT: that was a short time of joy. It stopped working again :-(

I just want to be able to control the music player from the headset :'-(
[Milestone 2 General] Motodoido:
Sounds a trouble in your headset, no in players...
[Milestone 2 General] neumaennl:
I'd be glad if it were like that coz then I could just get a new headset.

Music Mod and "Music Player" by Music Player Labs can be controlled with the headset button just fine and when it works in the "connected music player" that is preinstalled, it also works flawlessly until it decides to ignore the headset button comletely again :-(

Hi guys,

When checking the battery usage stats for Cell Standby i noticed it's showing 'Time Without a Signal 100%'. I've had the phone 3 days now and i noticed it on the first day and it hasn't changed. It does have a signal, i can make and receive calls with no problems. I've tried it with both a Talk Mobile and Vodafone sim card and they both show the same. The phone is a UK model, unbranded & unlocked. I've attached a screenshot so you can see what i'm talking about.

Anyone else getting the same? Any idea if this will be affecting my battery life?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdy2go:
100% time not using 2g, hsdpa or 3g instead. Don't worry.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alias_neo:
I'v just noticed this on my new GSII, never had it happen before, what's bugging me is that I'm getting massive battery drain overnight and the phone is off (dead) b y morning and it seems to be because my phone is in a terrible signal area at home where it will keep tight hold of H or 3G but on the lowest signal level, upping the output power I presume and killing my battery.

I can't have my phone going from 60% to dead while I sleep for 7 hours.

SOLVED: Go to Home>Menu>Settings >Input and Keyboards >Android Keyboard Settings>Select User dictionary >USA English

That's it. Fixed.!!!!!

Not sure how to fix this problem. But here is the issue:

- I flashed the latest stable release of CyanogenMod for Viewsonic Gtablet (7.0.3) and everything works fine except some apps that shows up as the phone version.

- Read somewhere that the fix is to uncheck the compatibility mode in 'Spare Parts' which definitely did fix the issue.

- After the fix, text prediction stopped working. It will only show words in contact. For instance, if I start typing 'B-E-N-' the only word suggestions will be Ben, Benedict, NO bend, bending, benefit, beneficiary, etc.

Has anyone encountered this or have a fix for it?

By the way, I am running everything Stock with the stock kernel too.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinez:
So, about a week ago my N1 started to not respond to any touches on the screen at all. I was under the impression that this would be a faulty digitizer and so I ordered one off of amazon. It was supposed to come with the t5 screwdriver and other parts needed to take apart the nexus. However, it did not.

Therefore, I'm under a bit of a time constraint to get this fixed and I took it to a cell phone repair store today. The guy at the counter told me that with it not responding to touches at all (screen itself looks perfect), that it was the LCD that needed to be replaced and not the digitizer. Is this true?

TLDR - Screen displays properly but does not register keypresses. Is this a faulty digitizer or LCD?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Obsy:
The Digitizer is responsible with the touches... It could be some software issue? What ROM do you use? Reinstall it. Install Multi-touch tester from Market and see what it's happen...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinez:
Thought of that as well... I reinstalled a few different ROMs multiple times and can't even get past any of the setup screens. I'll replace the digitizer and see what happens from there. Thanks!

Hi guys!

is there any way to keep some apps in memory?

i am using go contact and go dialer and i want to keep them in memory for fast loading.

when i want to call anybody, the go dialer takes about 3 secs to loads completely!!

i am using racht's Floyo v0.20 ROM.
[XPERIA X8 General] treebill:
android keep apps in memory that it thinks it will need later, if you don't use a task killer/ battery saver it should keep it in memory.
[XPERIA X8 General] ali313:
but many times i want to start go dialer i must wait about 3-5 seconds to open it. and android don't keep it in memory. only say to me is it possible to lock an app in memory or not?

in CM ROMs there is an option to lock home in memory. i want it for any other app such dialer.

sorry for my bad English:D
[XPERIA X8 General] Dexter_prog:
bump, I'm looking for this too. The way android manages apps is just terrible.
[XPERIA X8 General] milenkokg:
Use some other rom-etc some new :-):-)
[XPERIA X8 General] Dexter_prog:
what ?
[XPERIA X8 General] orangzeb:
well I'm on stock eclair 2.1a and i'm also using go contacts, for me it always remains in memory..
[XPERIA X8 General] Eddiemc:
Bump.

I'd like this too.. Using Go apps instead of stock dialer/sms, and I want them to always run!

Basically a startup script to open them in background on boot, then always keep them in memory.

My device has 1 gig of memory, so the 50 meg these apps takes up is a drop in the ocean. Free ram is wasted ram.

We're using a phone, so these should always have priority over anything, games, browser, etc. Currently it seems like they have not.

Please can anybody advice me on this?

Lotsa home apps have keep in memory function, but dialers and sms-apps should have this setting too. Guess I can contact go team to request it..
[XPERIA X8 General] Dexter_prog:
Yup, I can't believe no one thought of keeping dialers and sms apps in memory. I insist, Android's way of managing apps and killing processes is awful.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vBB:
Hello, I know there was a lot of questions like mine, but, I can't compare it in the same time (I mean, comparing wifi strength), I have only one DHD ;)

Which rom has better wifi signal reception? I know that this is more related to radio, not to rom, but, I would like to know, what is your opinion and what are your experiences? I have CyanogenMod 7.0.3 and recommended radio 12.54.60.25P_26.09.04.11_M2, and I think that wifi is a little bit less powerful than on e.g. Android Revolution 5.x and with the same radio, I'm not talking about bars and other indicators, I'm talking about "dBm". Around my house (close to exit doors) I have wifi signal on ARHD, and it was stable signal, and on CM7 I have there signal too, but it's not as stable as on ARHD. What is your opinion about that? Regards ;)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
Ei! Logically they influence many variables here ... type of baseband, rom, power of the sign wifi, situation of the issuer and the recipient ... it is a diffuse enough question i think...

because What serves me can that it does not serve you...

it´s only my opinion :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wbbigdave:
+1 on SERGL's answer there. the ROM's are going to be using different kernels and have different methods of distributign power to the wifi chipset. Also you may have noticed Wifi is a strage beast when it comes to signals, the oddest thing can affect it (qualified network technician, don't get me started on wireless algorithms), heck even being in the path of it can affect it.

To answer your Question though in my personal experience they have been very similar, some radios have given me better signal strength than other but at the cost of battery.

Suck it and see... :(
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superstick1:
Hi vBB

Yea.. I agree with both SERGI.3210 and wbbigdave. However, from what I understand that questions like these are pretty subjective. It have tonnes of factors that is almost impossible to be listed here. Lol.

It might not be the ROM and/or Radio etc that caused it to be weak but the telco companies themselves that caused the problem.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
yeah mate..i´m with you. there are a lot of variables that make influence in the strenght signal:)

its a very subjective question, for example im living in a town and my house dates of 1910 more or less!!! The walls have 40 cm of thickness LOL this influences also enough:D
[LG Optimus 2x] stevvie:
Is there any point in using an sd-ext partition on the O2X ?

I used to use one on my sd card for my blade and use Darktremor Apps2SD. But the O2X has so much more memory and storage space than the blade. I also ask this as when you go into CWM and wipe the dalcik cache it throws a little error of something like E: unknown partition for sd-ext, and seeing as I have a 16 gig card I thought of making a small 512meg partition for that ??
[LG Optimus 2x] goatee:
I too came from a blade with sd-ext :). The only reason I can see would be if you had a class 10 sd card, in which case it COULD be faster than the internal memory, but instinctively (no scientific basis) I'd have thought the internal memory is faster even than a fast sd card.
