My charger doesn't work in my room. I put it in the living room and it works but only if I pull the head out of the TF a little.

Quite annoying, I don't understand why it is taking them so long to release the accessories.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] rhapsody01:
It happened to me as well:

Bought mine (16GB without the dock) 1 week ago.

Tablet S/N: B60x

PSU Model: 0B-2LF

Had the PSU plugged at all time to the wall plug, used it to charge the tablet for a week and today it stopped working.

Tried to remove the "country specific" part and to move the pins away from the PSU. That didn't work.

Tried to put the PSU in the Freezer for 20 minutes, tried and now it is working again !

Next time it happend I'll try the solution from WRXtranceformed.

Asus sucked big time on this:mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] aquamally:
0b-2lf Power Supply failure.

Hello all.

I bought an Asus Eepad Transformer last week from Overclockers UK. Currently running Honeycomb 3.2. It has the charging adaptor no 0B-2LF, and it was working fine until this morning. I've noticed, over the short time I've had it, that the charger was getting almost too hot to touch when charging. This morning when i tried to charge it up, it wouldn't charge, or even show that it was actually plugged in. So I tried the fix, someone else mentioned, of putting the charger in the freezer for 30 minutes to reset the Thermal Cutout Switch, and it worked. The Transformer is charging again as normal. It seems that this issue has not been sorted by Asus, and it is an ongoing problem. I will be getting in touch with Asus, but in the meantime I will make room in the freezer alongside the frozen peas, incase it happens again.:rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] vietsoldier:
I just had my AD827M Asus PSU die this afternoon too. I bought the TF101 secondhand so kinda freaked out thinking the tablet power plug was dead. Anyway turns out it was poor design on ASUS's part.

For those with a AD827M PSU, it relies on 2 exposed wires for a power connection between the main PSU unit and the country adapter (mine is USA type). Opening/closing, plugging/unplugging the will push the exposed wires on the main PSU unit inward; over time the contact between the PSU and the country adapter may no longer make contact. To fix you simply disconnect the country adapter and bend slightly the exposed wires away from the main PSU unit. Put the two back together and voila!!!

Thanks to Fone_Fanatic for the solution. Thumbs down to poor design.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Mithfindel:
Kudos to vietsoldier !

Thank you @Fone_Fanatic, my AD827M adapter died today and I could fix it in no time !

I would highly recommend your 'fix' to be part of a TF101 troubleshooting guide :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] rikou_demon:
I've tried everything:

Freezing

Bending internal prongs

Bending USB-seater prongs

Nothing works.

However, power brick can charger my GNexus and the USB cable can be used for Asus transfer.

If the power brick/cable is dead, how can it function for other devices?

I've also done factory resets and cold boots countless times, and still nothing.

HOWEVER, I bought a dock and it recognized the charger (lightning bolt appeared) when docked. I powered it off to allow it to charge more quickly, noticed after an hour the dock light was not blinking at all, turned the unit back on and the power adapter is again not recognized.

What gives? Truly frustrating.

Anyone got any *other* ideas? I'm hesitant to buy a new one as it seems unrelated to the brick itself and has more to do with something else I can't identify.

So Sony Ericsson's Liveview is not a brand new gadget and it has some really mixed reviews!

As usual I cannot find any information as to if the product works well with LG optimus One?

For me the Liveview would be incredibly useful particularly for notifications.

Does anybody have any experiences? Bear in mind that the latest news on the Liveview says the last firmware upgrade has fixed a load of it's glitches.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vizzze:
I bought it months ago, used a few times and now it's in the drawer :D

I think that sony liveview app is the main problem , because it keep on disconnect the device for unknown reasons; i should try it with a different phone and compare.
[General Questions and Answers] DeathWalking:
While I'm sure this has been covered, the search function yielded results that assumed I already was capable of understanding what was going on, so...

Question time!

What is the ROM? I know, literally, what ROM stands for. Is it equivalent to the BIOS on a computer?

Is the kernel is different from the ROM?

I'm fairly sure that the ROM is phone-specific...are kernels?

I googled AOSP, but that doesn't explain what "getting AOSP" for a phone is.

Is there a way to go back to stock Android, from what the OEMs put on?

I've read that some things, like launchers, are always running on top of, rather than overriding, the stock launcher. Is this true of all types of "skinning" apps, or do some actually replace the code whose functionality they override?

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to answer any or all of these. I'd like to be a member of this community, but I feel it would help to be able to understand what's going on first!
[General Questions and Answers] nok3:
A rom is based on android, but is changed. For example. I have a samsung galaxy s with samsung software. A custom rom changes some things of the samsung software and makes it better.. or gives it another style and look.

You can choose yourself what kernel you like to use.

And yes you can back to stock android. You only have to download the package of the stock android and install it:).

Launcher changes nothing.. it's only an app.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
AOSP= Android Open Source Project

It is the source code that ROM's get their base from.
[General Questions and Answers] DeathWalking:
Yea...I figured that out by Googling the term. But what does it mean to "get" AOSP on a phone? Why does it seem difficult to do?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
When talking about ROMs here this means a complete operating system for your device. This includes apps, kernel,modem, etc. you could take a look at www.romkitchen.org to see what they are made up from.

Sometimes, sometimes not. ROM makers usually don't make kernels and people who do kernels usually don't make ROMs. Often there is one very good kernel for a device and this one gets included in most of the ROMs. If there are several it depends on the ROM developers preference. Usually you can also switch kernels after installing a ROM.

Yes

AOSP, as alread stated means android open source project.

Getting AOSP means getting android in its natural flavor. If you have a samsung android device, you will have an android modified by samsung in certain ways. I believe only the google phones (i.e. Nexus) run aosp.

Yes, but sometimes this requires some tinkering.

I don't under stand what you mean with all types of skinning apps?

You can get rid of the stock launcher, i have uninstalled touchwiz launcher and installed launcher pro.

Some touchwiz files are still on the device because i believe they are used by other applications.

But usually the reason for having both on the phone is because if you have no working launcher your device will not be usable.

So some people keep the stock launcher as backup.
[General Questions and Answers] DeathWalking:
I guess I erred in calling a launcher a skin? I know it provides "additional functionality" but considering the number of people I've seen complaining about the OEM launchers' appearances, I assumed it was mainly for the sake of looks.

I'll try to be a little more clear with my question.

Say I have a stock phone, but I hate the color scheme of the UI. I then download a skin to fix it. Is that a program that runs always, or is it just a utility that changes some already existing code?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
There are no skins for system applications. If you install a different color one, i.e. gingerbread keyboard. It is the complete app where someone decompiled it, edited the images and re compiled it.

we can leach more info from the pentagon then we can them its crazy I mean with the iPhone 5 sgs2 sensation and others coming makes me think the best time for sprint to come out with it from a sales point of view but i doubt 99% sure it be past June but we won't know till the obvious

I'm getting impatient with Sprint, I've been with them a year, pay my bill on time, and they still haven't removed me from the spending limit program.

[Streak 5 General] fone_fanatic:
This is what I understand of it: The current bump in the road has to do with the video/audio drivers. Seeing as how dell licensed them out they can't release them to us. So what we need is someone that can get the new kernel running on the streak with the streak drivers. Since dell legally can't give us what we need/want someone has to do it manually. This is all over my capability and I dint know if it's done by reverse engineering or starting from scratch.

Someone (dj steve, guards, et al) please correct me if I'm wrong.

I believe, at least according to my tweaking of gentoo and debian kernels, the modules for the drivers can be pulled, or at least the config files can be if they were left packaged.

[Streak 5 General] mikeinessex:
when i was with galaxy s cm7 had the same problem, basically google release android sources but every phone has it own sources for its hardware to work. these are the sources what normally stop a dev from progressing. so basically its not the dev its the ability for dell to release the sources for streak so devs can carry on. the only other way is to develope you own codes for the the hardware but thats a total blind fold in the dark and will never be fully functional

Works perfectly but I want to turn Battery charge notification completely off. Now, even when I´m in silent mode, the phone vibrates when the charge is complete. This wakes me up when I´m asleep, very annoying.

Is there any way to turn the notification off?

I didn´t have this problem on Froyo.

Thanks for the reply.

Will try to set vibration to Never and see if that helps. Now I have the phone on silent and vibrate "Only when not in silent mode". That should be enough one would think.

Deleting the soundfile, do that really make any difference since it´s the vibration I

can´t get rid off?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beerdaddy:
Yeah that should work. I tried it last night and I didn't hear a thing....maybe I'm a heavier sleeper or maybe it worked.

When you use GB Sense Rom, you do partition so your memory space is bigger
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mars3910:
Hi, everyone.

I was using RCMix S fantastic rom with 512 mb ext 3. I decided to go 1GB ext 4 with gparted and did everything that is shown noob proof guide. But i did a recovery to Leedroid 2.4.1 for some reasons.

After partitioning, my PC can't find folders that can be seen in before like DCIM folders.

When i check them with astro file manager DCIM and other folders are there.

But it gets stranger. I can transfer files from my PC to my sd card but astro and recovery mode can't find the folders, so i'm transfering the folders but cant use them:(

What can i do gparted again or ?

Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Balu:
I would copy all files to the pc and then format the sd card.

Try to format the whole sd to fat32 and then use gparted to seperate it to 1 GB ext4 and the rest to fat32.

You could also try to format it again (as seen in the noob guide)

I'm not 100% sure, but it should work. ;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mars3910:
thanks for your reply, but i cant see any files from my PC that is on sd card. I can transfer files from pc to sd but cant see them in my desire even i search them with astro :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Balu:
Can you see the files (on the sd) on your pc?

Then I would try to copy them to your pc (just to be sure that they are safed).

After that you can format it again (then copy the files back) and try if it works. :)

PS: Can't you see the new files (from the pc - on your desire) with astro or no files at all?

Edit: You need to erase partitions and make FAT partition first (gparted -to format it right)
