The more I wait, the less excited I am for the TF. I'm more scared than anything. I agree with the poster above that Asus need to at least recognize that there are issues with the units and address the problem. Until then, I might hold off for the Galaxy Tab and see where that goes. I know it lacks a lot of the features that the TF has, but I have been using the iPad for a year and have quite enjoyed it. The only problem for me was the crappy iOS software. The Galaxy Tab seems to be the perfect fit for someone in my situation (wanting iPad dimensions/quality with Honeycomb).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madsquabbles:
and hopefully samsung keeps it's word and updates regularly. i really like the build quality of my galaxy tab and hope the 10.1's are the same quality. i think it's pretty obvious that we'd have pay more than $400 for higher build quality.

i'm thinking i'll wait for the next gen that can handle hp hd videos. my archos does it fine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimmy_UK:
My first unit powered on fine and went through setup but as soon as I adjusted brightness the screen went off and wouldnt respond to power button at first. Eventually the screen came on again but as soon as I touched an icon it went off! Rinse and repeat above.

Glass was uneven against frame.

Light leakage bottom right corner.

2nd unit is coming tommorrow, reading this thread makes me regret doing a swap. Maybe should have got the refund.......

Maybe I'm hoping someone can comfort me into hanging on? =/
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hanano17:
I have some light leakage, and the more I read the more I think its just how it has to be for now. The only real reason I got a tablet at all was because the TF has the keyboard option, so there isn't a "wait for 10.1 tab" to me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekbabe:
To me, it's pretty simple There are a lot of folks with issues that appear to be software related,if you are unlucky enough to fall into this group, Asus appears to be on it in terms of addressing those issues and I feel confident that the they will continue to address issues and support the device

if you get a unit with obvious build quality issues like dust under the screen, dead pixels, excess bleed or gaps around the screen, then you can return or RMA the unit, just as you would any other item that arrived broken

What's shocking to me is the number of people willing to hang onto units where there are gaps around the screen seal and such saying things like "I don't really notice it" or "as long as it doesn't get worse" A device being in temporary short supply should not sway anyone into keeping an item that arrives already starting to fall apart.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madsquabbles:
yeah, that's the kind of attitude that allows mfg's to pull short cuts when delivering products to the consumer... i was actually going to accept the ones on my unit until they started getting progressively worse. it almost feels like i can pop off the metal if i pull a little bit now. maybe this could be the first teardown, lol.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doronster195:
Honestly I wouldn't trip. I don't seem to have any of the above issues, at least nothing significant enough to bother me. And I'm a stichler. So occasionally on a black screen I noticed light bleed in the bottom of the screen on the status bar... effectively not hindering my enjoyment of the display at all as it disappeared a few seconds later when the screen changed color..

The keyboard issue has been fixed by an OTA update from an Asus rep (so when you get your firmware update you'll be able to breathe a sigh of relief that your keyboard works flawlessly).

My only issue atm is speed. I want it to be fluid without dropping frames and play youtube videos without stuttering. This should all be fixed with HC 3.1 so I'm waiting for that, and then it'll be perfect.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobSaget82:
I don't really wanna say it, but judging by the number of people having issues in the poll (myself included), the Transformer seems to be the Xbox360 of tabs. When it works it is great, but has a high level or manufacturing issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
Not quite, the majority of these issues, don't impact the working order of the device. Also "high level" is relative, since in another thread 90% of owners were perfectly content and had no serious issues.

One of those content owners is me.

Hope you realize that everything is made in China... (yes, even Apple products)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimmy_UK:
Received my new unit with keyboard today from Comet UK. As soon as I switched it on I could see awful screen bleed along all edges! Bloody hell.....returned for refund in my local store although it was difficult to arrange as I was greated with "I dont see a problem" attitude!

So no more money to Apple, no more money to Asus. :mad: What is wrong with the quality control?!

Gutted :(
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbob1971:
Sorry to hear that Jimmy. I finally got a good one yesterday. Minimal light bleed and no dead pixels. There is a very small 1mm or so gap on the left hand side, but given all the trouble I've gone through (4 of them) I'm going to attempt to fix it myself by pressing the frame and/or dealing it somehow. Of all the defects this one annoys me the least, oddly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akarol:
Can anyone post pictures of the light bleed so I know what/where to look for it when I get my TF this weekend?
[General Questions and Answers] neswii:
I have a SGS i9000 Froyo 2.2.1 and have an emulator(NESoid) with some games on it, but playing with the on screen controllers is a pain, so i started searching for bluetooth controllers, and I found this neat lil controller, a bluetooth imitation ps3 controller, the ones who are exact imitations of the real deal for 15 bucks on ebay. Now i have heard a big deal of negative reviews on these, but my questipon is hardly related to the actual product but for generic bluetooth controllers. Does my phone support them? Will a PC bluetooth controller work fine with the emulator NESoid?

because you try it. If it works then just order it on the Net :D
[General Questions and Answers] neswii:
Well, i just went ahead and used the on screen controls till I actually got used to them. Of course some games are just impossible, i.e. Super Mario Bros. and most platformers, but well there are other games. Im pretty sure now that the generic bluetooth controllers work though.

Hi all !

I know that it may be too soon to ask for battery problems (as the fw was released only 4-5 days ago) but can you please tell me if the Gallery bug is still present? I use stock gallery and on JVK was very choppy. I have JS8 now and I'm still standing by. Also, could you please tell me if the status bar icons are the same as in Froyo, or are they like the ones in JVK? I understand that the call delay problem is solved, the alarm bug is still present in some cases while for some the alarm works great. Which one is it? Wi-Fi strength is ok? Some say that it has poor wi-fi signal. GPS lock works fast? And any other bugs if you found I don't care about Quadrant scores or any lagfixes. I don't use any, nor Custom ROMS or root. I am only on stock fw and apps. Thank you for your time and I hope your answers will be useful not just for me but for all of us out there who haven't yet decided to flash this new firmware. Cheers everyone !:cool:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rhadoo04:
I installed today JVH, no battery drain so far, the alarm bug isn`t there, triple checked. No Wi-Fi issues, signal strength the same. Came from a perfectly good JS8, working flawlessly with docs rom and i ain`t disappointed. TV-off animation is great.

PS: Daca iti merge telefonul bine, poti sa ramai pe js8 pana apare in kies in toate regiunile.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AlexVat:
OK. But how about the gallery? And the status bar, the same as XXJVK or as in Froyo?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] rhadoo04:
Gallery works fine. GPS working fine, lock in just a few seconds, but I think on JS8 it was more accurate.

Ro: Fa update la JVH, merge mult mai bine si fara lag. Eu sunt multumit, desi eram sceptic daca sa trec pe el sau nu, avand in vedere ca JS8 mergea perfect.

Pe jvh nu i`am facut decat un simplu root si o sa ma gandesc daca sa`i schimb sau nu kernelul. Probabil ca o sa mearga si mai bine, daca se poate mai bine, cu un kernel custom.

I manually updated from ASUS website (using the 5/1 software) and am still receiving the OTA notification in the system bar. Is there an easy way to remove this? Is there a file on the device that I need to delete? I already deleted the ASUS folder from the micro SD card that contained the update.

EDIT: I went ahead and tried to update and it told me that the update failed. It then told me it was going to revert to blah blah blah, which basically did nothing and then went back to the home screen. This may only work if you have the same exact version that the system is trying to update to. After accepting the failed update notice, the notification went away.

[Milestone 2 General] r2beta0:
There is another way to mount it without using the option -oloop :)

If you look into /dev/block you are going to find 8 loop devices, from loop0 to loop7. As android doesn't use that many loop devices it should be enough. You can mount it like this:

losetup /dev/block/loop7 /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img
mount -t ext3 /dev/block/loop7 /mnt/ubuntu

If your phone doesn't have a free loop device, you can create a new one, like this:

mknod /dev/block/loop99 b 7 99
losetup /dev/block/loop99 /sdcard/ubuntu/ubuntu.img
mount -t ext3 /dev/block/loop99 /mnt/ubuntu

The problem is you have apps installed to the sd card (and getting mount points busy), when it happens here I just open Titanium Backup and move External apps to internal.

No matter what I tried here, this script wouldn't work... So I used DebOnDroid app from defy forum, and when updated to GB. The app stopped working also, so I moved the ubuntu.img to /data/local/ and mounted from there, works like a charm!

This is the script I'm using /system/bin/buntu:

export mnt=/data/local/debian
export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
export TERM=linux
export HOME=/root
export USER=root
echo "Linux Chrooter: Setup Networking"
sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

busybox mount -o loop $mnt/../debian.img $mnt
busybox mount -t devpts devpts $mnt/dev/pts
busybox mount -t sysfs sysfs $mnt/sys
busybox mount -t proc proc $mnt/proc

#extra mount points
busybox mount -o rw /system $mnt/mnt/s
busybox mount /data $mnt/mnt/d
busybox mount /sdcard $mnt/mnt/sd

echo "Linux Chrooter: Chroot!"
chroot $mnt /bin/bash

umount $mnt/dev/pts
umount $mnt/mnt/*
#somehow the commented lines didn't work...
