WHat we need is a "battery issues here" thread and stickied. SO far I have decided not to return it though that may change(battery I mean). heres what I have done and in doing these steps I have managed to still retain probably about 75% charge bat level (although I find the bat icon to be deceptive and not accurate, at times I have stayed at 20% longer than one would think you could stay at 20% with moderate use is it understating the amount or just plain wrong?)

from full charge at 5:30 am (first time phone gets use:alarm kicks in) till now about 8. I surf a lot, email, txt moderatly, do stupid ap things, play a game or two. check out xda and my other forums probably at 5 min burst maybe 15 min at most if im on break at work. I would rate my usage slightly above moderate but inconsistant.

heres what I did:

root ( thank you S1C !!! you are da bestest!)

clean cahce ng

I tried bloat freezer and that sucked. was great until I was offline :(

people who make aps that only work when you are connected to the net can go suck a big one. its an ap not wow/eq :mad:

Ti pro of course best goldang ap ever.

extended controls (yes its true you still cant switch 4g)

history eraser

juice defender ultimate

set cpu

task manager(best free task killer out there)

I togles to go between wifi and data when I can but JD is great and does it for me if I forget. If I get a call I dont have to toggle or worry I forgot my wifi. JD is awesome. set cpu I have set my phone slightly below its max and increased its minimum a bit.

aps I have frozen:

ap pack(tmo bloat)

car home, both of them

magoic smoke

my act 1and 5

all the games

smartshare

tmo tv

talk1.3

teleCRAP

video chat

voice dialer and search

wi fi calling ( i have no need for this and if I need it ill just unfreeze)

zinio

I have sync off and manually sync when I remember ...theres probably an ap for this or should be

I would like to freeze all the " com.logmein*** and com.lge*** "... has anyone done this succesfully? I think I saw someone turn off the logmein stuff but is it confirmed safe? any comments would be awesome.

all in all I have increased my batterlife at a bare min 30% but I would really like to say its almost 50. BTW why so many cache/task/history cleaners? I am obsessed with it! lol does it help battery like ...probably not.

I still love this phone, it really is a great piece of hardware
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dolphinwigs:
im on 5th g2x. charged and calibrated all of them. that's awesome but it would look into if your phone isn't calibrated correctly and is displaying that it's full when its not. charge to 100% then unplug and turn off phone. then plug it in while off and look at the onscreen battery charging (may have to press quickly (not hold) to see this screen why usb is plugged in). should see it charging even more. wait for 20 minutes or so after it looks fully charged while off. then unplug usb charge cable beofre turning on phone and then on phone and let boot up. then plug in and charging for another 30 minutes, then use battery calibration app. then unplug and let drain to 1% left then charge to 100% without using or unplugging and also while phone is turned on. should be better battery life and more accurate charging. this doubled batter life for me. li-ion batteries do not have memory effect, but the phones battery stats get messed up initially on phone and these steps correct and maximize battery. factory reset it good before all this if you can and haven't factory reset before.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Doemer:
Hi there

Maybe this question has been asked before but I only found matching problem descriptions related to other devices so far.

I am using the typhoon nightlies for quite a while and I am very happy with them. There is just one major problem I experience day by day. When I connect to my wireless router (WPA/WPA2 TKIP/AES doesn't matter) I have Internet for a few seconds or minutes but than there is suddenly no more connectivity. WLAN Status still claims to be connected but I can't either reach any local music sources nor any websites or the market.

When I use WEP or no security at all it works just fine. Are there a lot of people with this problem or is there allready a patch for this issue which I missed.

Edit: I have several different router models at home and I tried it with all of them. Same result

Thank you so much for your help

I allow myself to push this thread for one more time. I am a little confused about being the only one with this problem. :S if its really a known bug and the only workaround is to use the mobile connection instead, I could live with it but had to buy another phone for going abroad.

Thx

Incoming call filter

Want to master incoming calls ? Turn off ringing or force vibrate/ring modes for lists of phone numbers, according to the time of the day, the day of the week (and even if you are in holidays or not). Multiple lists, with priorities, advanced scheduler to set activation hours and days, and fill each list with green and black phone numbers, from your contact list, or manually. You can also use jokers in the numbers (phone areas).

NO NEED TO ROOT

For guys who does not want to root Android, this app is still working!

Shush! like app

The idea is the same, but the implementation is radically different:

Choose a "rest", with the needed duration, and your phone switch to silent/vibrate mode, and will come back to the previous mode after the duration.

A WIDGET is available to trigger Rest mode, to cancel it, or to launch a panel to choose rest duration.

Night mode

Choose the time you want to automatically switch to silent/vibrate/airplane mode, and the time in the morning to come back to the previous mode.

Each night, the mode will protects your sleeping time.

A new Rest mode!

You can now activate Rest mode only with VOL- button!

From version 1.4.0 (please update it if needed :)) and with "Basic features" activated, go into the parameters tab of the app, and check the rest mode control with VOL-.

Then, when you turn on the silent/vibrate mode with your VOL- button, you'll have a popup that will give you possibility to engage a rest (by double clicking on VOL-, follow the instructions on your screen to know how it works :)).

All configuration (duration and ringing volume to restore) is done with the VOLUME buttons only. And if you don't want to engage a rest, do nothing, the popup will close itself after 3 seconds :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skeldave:
Hi, i just got my transformer and have no idea how to charge it up.

the charge came with a section for the usb to plug into, then a second section which has the plug on it. I cant get these bits to fit together at all, they keep falling apart, and when they do decide to stay i don't get any indication that my tablet is charging. I also plugged into the usb into my laptop and the charging indicator still didn't appear.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekbabe:
the 2 parts of the charger snap together, at first I thought I had mine together but got the same result you're experencing. You have to put the 2 parts together till you hear or feel the snap,I had to apply a fair amount of pressure to get the 2 pieces connected. It's not you, the charger pieces are just really a snug fit and need a bit more force than one would think to get them connected.Once you've got it connected you'll know as you'll feel the difference immediately. Hope that helps.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skeldave:
Thanks for the help, they snapped together after i put quite a lot of force into it, it seems to be charging now, thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krighton:
i had to initially push past the point i thought i'd break it in half to get the two pieces joined together.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
I actually thought my charger was defective when I first tried to assemble it. It just wouldn't go in.

Finally after 2 weeks of trying here and there, it snapped in. Good thing (actually not a good thing) that Asus Support is so unreliable because they still haven't shipped a replacement adapter.

Guess I should cancel with the Asus RMA but I'm not even sure if they were ever going to send it...

Anyway, the adapter is really a bad piece of hardware: it felt like I was going to break the damn thing at times. (I guess it isn't as widespread or maybe some people were luckier than others because I haven't really seen a huge commotion about it)

For those that aren't sure why their tablet isn't charging then this is probably why.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
So it's a bad piece of hardware because it doesn't break when strained and connects very securely? Wow your view sure is skewed. Yes it's hard to press it into the other piece, how is this a bad hardware problem?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surviveland:
i won't use such complicated transformer . too complex . quit to use
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
Because had I actually broke the damn thing, I would be liable for damages. It's still plastic so it is still breakable. Plus, the metal part is bendable given enough pressure.

Did you even think that maybe they should have made a one piece for the adapter to begin with? Or at least assembled it at the factory so that consumers don't need to deal with it at all?

Second, I shouldn't have to spend an exorbitant amount of time figuring out why this thing wouldn't connect. Where in the manual did Asus say you needed to apply a large amount of pressure? In what other electronic device/adapter do you have the same amount of difficulty assembling the device?

Remember, if you break this thing, then you have no way of replacing it without buying a new TF because Asus's support is that terrible. (I am not the only one who can testify to this)

Maybe it is a feature for YOU; but having adapter assembly difficulties is not something that I would consider as "good hardware". Excuse me if I don't want to ruin something I just spent $550 (tablet + dock) on -- especially since I have no other way of charging it besides the extremely slow USB option.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
But you didn't break it. Because it's built well. It doesn't say large amount of pressure but it does say how to assemble it in the manual. Besides my HTC charger is made in the same fashion, a little easier to assemble but it's done to reduce production cost and make it easily adaptable (hence the 100~240v range) by more than just Asus.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
I may not have but what if someone broke the adapter because of the difficulty, then who is to blame? And when I said it was a "bad piece of hardware", I meant the design, which is an integral part of any hardware. (also, just because something doesn't break, doesn't mean it was built well. But, that is another issue entirely) I don't want to feel that I might break something that I invested a large sum of cash in. I am not the only one that felt that felt like they were going to break the adapter. Some people are even afraid to disassemble it because of the frustration they dealt with when putting it together in the first place.

And where in the manual does it say how to assemble the adapter? You mean that one picture -- with no words at all -- where they draw an arrow in between the two parts? Yeah, big help -- like if I couldn't tell in the first place. They don't even tell you that you need to push it in all the way. The first time I tried, I pushed it in half because it wouldn't go deeper. How was I supposed to know that you needed to apply much more pressure? Also, how do costumers know if their device is defective if there are no instructions and assembly is more difficult than should be?

Again, assemble it at the factory or make it a one piece. Do you have a source for production costs? I find it difficult to believe assembly costs would be that much higher if they had just put it together. This isn't like plugging in the USB cable where everything is a nice and easy fit; it was way too frustrating than it should have been. Asus probably saves money from having to deal with consumers complaining about the charger if it came ready to use.

To me, hardware depends on the experience and that includes assembly. I don't want to worry about whether or not I might break it. (it is just an adapter, it shouldn't be this troubling!) I have never had an HTC adapter so I can't speak for that but I have never had trouble with adapters before. All companies want to save money but I don't have difficulty with their adapters. It's ridiculous that I have to talk about the adapter since with every other device/company, it is a non-issue. Again, the worst part is that you have no backup option besides buying a new TF to get a replacement adapter in case anything goes wrong.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
Or you could, you know, buy a new adapter.

Besides, I've not seen a single report of a broken power adapter because they tried to assemble it so your complaining about something that hasn't even happened and will unlikely happen since it's obviously made to take the strain if thousands of people were able to put it together without breaking it.

Personally I feel secure in the fact knowing that it's well built and wont come apart easily like other similar style chargers I have seen, but I guess pressing 2 parts together is a giant issue which is nearly impossible to do and oh god, you might even break your nail!

And yes paying a bunch of people to click 2 parts together is quite costly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anywho:
Where do buy a new adapter for this? I've been waiting for one since I got mine a while ago. The cord is too short, the power adapter shakes around in the wall socket, and you can't buy an extra charger because no one makes them except for Asus at this point (and even Asus doesn't have them to buy separately at this point).
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seshmaru:
there's a "coming soon" page for a wallcharger with a few online retailers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
Buy a new adapter... Have you been reading any of my posts? Okay, sell me yours for market price. There aren't any for sale if you haven't noticed. And no, I don't count waiting a month for a pre-order as an option. If you're willing to deal with one month of charging it through USB alone then by all means, give me yours.

Frankly, if I broke a nail then yes, it is badly designed. Not sure why you think that adds to your point.

"And yes paying a bunch of people to click 2 parts together is quite costly."

And you know this for a fact because...? I asked for sources and you give me, "trust me, I know." Do you even realize how much they pay their factory workers in China? (Apple factory workers get around $1 an hour when factoring in overtime) Do the math: if that one guy can put together 50 an hour, then that's 2 cents in extra costs per tablet order. (they are actually much more efficient) The most expensive part is getting the materials -- NOT the labor. Compare that to saving money on customer service for complaints on the charger.

I honestly don't care if you have a different opinion. But, keep your snide remarks to yourself. If you don't wish to participate in a friendly debate and continue to flame then fine, you win. It's really not worth my time. Try to realize that some people might have different opinions from yours.

Clearly, almost everyone had difficulty putting the damn pieces together. Do you honestly think people share your views on that being a good thing?! I really don't know what chargers you've used but I've never had trouble with others. I have never broken an adapter before so that means, they must be well built, right?

Even you admitted that it was more difficult to assemble than other chargers. How is that a good feature when most other chargers don't require assembly at all? Again, it cost almost nothing to have it assembled in the factory to begin with AND all the tablets I've seen didn't have this adapter "feature"-- so, what is your argument again? (I guess Asus, the multi-billion dollar company, can't afford it) Hell, why did they even assemble the tablet? Save costs! Send me just the case and the insides next time too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
Exactly my point.

I really don't see how pre-ordering one with no timetable for release is an option.

And you're exactly right: the cord is much too short. I guess that's okay since it saves production costs :rolleyes:
