[Galaxy S I9000 General] SENORBERNS:
I always read around on the forums how people ahve their Samsung Galaxy S i9000 latsing days and days.

I just flashed my phone to darkys gingerbread, but beofre that was not running any custom rom s or anything and my phone died in about 8 hours....

How is everyone getting such high batteyr life from their phone?

This is my phone:

ANy advice?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] me_ashman:
They turn off everything and dont use it. Simple. If you use it moderately to heavy it will only last 8-10hrs.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
I really wanted this to be a winner. The light bleed is horrible. I have a big gap on the left of the screen that is now starting to separate. It is starting to creak really bad when I hold it. Its now doing the thing where it won't wake up and I have to hard shut it down (my xoom did this all the time, which was one of the main reasons i returned it.) The dock is nowhere to be found. The lag, especially when typing, is getting old.

I am going to give honeycomb time to mature, and then try another tablet. The samsung looks like a better build quality, so hopefully it will get a more finished version of honeycomb. I think asus could have had a real winner here with the price and the dock, but the build quality is atrocious and honeycomb is just too buggy. I could deal with the honeycomb bugs if the hardware wasn't so junky.

I really love android and my HTC inspire, so it amazes me how buggy this is in comparison.

Good luck everyone.

Sorry it didn't work out for you. I too have the light bleed glitch, it's not major but it's enough to annoy me. I'm going to contact Comet and see if they can exchange the unit.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockcrawler:
I went through 4 Transformer's and came to the same conclusion. Going to wait till the tab 10.1 is released and take a look at that as well as re-evaluate the build quality of the transformer and see if there is better qc. I really did like it alot.

Need to sell my dock now :-(

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spokenwordd:
Sorry to the OP for the issues you have had. I got my Transformer on US launch day (returned my Xoom to get the Transformer also), and have not had any light bleed or build quality issues.

Actually I prefer the build to the Xoom especially the textured back. The Xoom's black glossy finish had me going nuts just keeping prints off of it.

I have had minor issues with the Sleep of Death issue but they have been rather negligible. I will be receiving my dock tomorrow so hopefully that will be smooth with the latest US patch I have installed.

Asus had the best overall design with the Transformer in my opinion. The dock is just to good of a concept. I'm willing to hang in with them until they patch these issues away. Build quality issues seems to be another issue and with the difficulty they have had delivering the units to the masses I know an RMA has to be a nightmare right now.

I'll stick with them on the Transformer but if they don't fix this stuff I won't buy another Asus tablet until they show and prove. I've been using and loving their motherboards for years, hope they get the tablet game strong.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enectic:
The thing is though you give up quite a bit with the Galaxy Tab. I too thought about purchasing one (currently have a G-Tablet) but it uses the same Tegra 2 processor, has no USB port, has no HDMI port, and has no microSD card slot. All in all it just doesn't seem like much of an upgrade. Also Android 3.0 will always be Android 3.0 no matter what hardware is running it. I'm sure updates will further refine the OS but the Galaxy Tab will run Honeycomb no better than the Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flindil:
I have an Asus transformer and have only a few small concerns with it. The light bleed is due to the IPS panel I believe, the ipad 2 has the same issue.. I dont even notice it really, The plastic back only flexes if I am squeezing harder than I ought to, and remember that its plastic, if you continually flex the back panel its going to get softer and softer. I haven't had it lock up on me, although a few apps have fc'd on me, but I think its more of a compatibility issue. My camera dust cover has dust under it ironically although it hasnt been noticeable in any pictures and the only reason I took a picture with my tablet is to see if the dust was apparent. Its a little too unwieldy for regular picture taking anyways.

I think its a great piece of equipment and at 100 dollars less than anything else out there I am very pleased with it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
If a product doesn't work for you, absolutely, return it. I don't really get why so many people think it's necessary to go to a forum and post that they're returning something, but to each their own, I suppose. I'm returning my Xoom, but since I got the Transformer and decided to keep it instead, I haven't been back to the Motorola forum since. I certainly won't be going back just for the express purpose of announcing my decision.

I mean, it's not like I'd be saying anything about the Xoom that's not already been said there many times. It would almost seem like I was just complaining for no reason other than to spoil the experience for someone else.

Anyways, yeah, whatever. I do have to say as well that I don't really get this fascination with the Galaxy Tab 10.1. It seems like its only advantage is that it's thinner and lighter. It doesn't appear to have a better screen (maybe not even as good as the TF's), it has fewer expansion options, it has Samsung's software which depending on your perspective can be a positive or a negative, and it costs more. Confusing...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
The reason I posted this, and I suspect why others so it as well, is for perspective buyers who read these forums looking for opinions. If I can help educate someone before buying this then I will.

The fewer expansion options may be with just the limited edition one they gave out at Google I/O. The ones given out there differ from what was last shown to the public. That being said, I have the original iPad and I have never filled the onboard storage, do I have never had a need for expandable storage or USB ports. So for me, and I suspect a lot of others, it would be a non-issue anyway. Hell I wish I could pay less money for a tablet if I could get the cameras, microSD, and USB ports removed.

Samsung's software is just a bunch of widgets on top of Honeycomb, just like Asus's. It's not a skin like you see on Android phones.

Build quality and weight ARE the big reasons that people such as myself are very interested in the Samsung. i could probably ride out Asus's software issues if I thought the hardware was solid enough to last, but from the unit I got I believe it would be in the trash within a year. Ultimately I am looking for very high build quality with software that is good enough that can/will be upgraded over time.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tissotti:
Reading this place i'm quite happy that i'm made to wait till next month before i can pick TF+scandi dock here.

Hopefully it has gotten better on the hw and soft front. If i'm not pleased there's always Samsung that i can throw money at.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FISKER_Q:
I don't really see blacklight bleeding as a noteworthy subject (Unless of course it's a problem on a bigger scale, which unlike the iPad 2 this doesn't seem to be).

You'll always have devices that slip through QA tests with blacklight bleeding or dead/stuck pixels, the only thing to do is to return it if you get a device like that.

As for the competition, the Xoom is very expensive, and without a dock, the back looks kinda weird honest, where the Asus one look a lot more consist. There's no keyboard-docking at launch, on the upside it does support hacking out of the box.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab I/O-version is gorgeous to say the least, also very hackable, unfortunately that may not be the case for the final version, though i figure it will still be a nice design. Pricing will like the Xoom probably be through the roof, and again, as far as i know, no launch-keyboard docking.

So i'm going for the Transformer, even if i have to send it back because of blacklight bleeding, because i think this is the only tablet sofar that've really made sense from a usability standpoint.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicpork:
+1 ...I'm just tired of reading those posts telling the whole world about returning a whatever it is.... seriously..why even bother....

I'm just happy to say my TF has been working very well... there is lightbleed..but it's negligible in daily use and my IPad 2 is no better than that..and the keyboard docking is the deciding factor here for me..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hiro666:
I totally understand how frustrating it can be when you really want to like a piece of tech but it just doesn't pan out. Asus has a terrific concept on their hands and it seems the execution is a bit off. I have never been impressed with their netbooks and laptops in regards to apparent build quality (key word "apparent" since I have no personal experience with them). I have used and swear by Asus motherboards for over 10 years and keep expecting better hardware builds from them.

Nobody has mentioned it, but I have my eye on the new Toshiba coming out in June. USB ports, HDMI and SD. Looks to be solidly built. I also played with an Acer Iconia yesterday it felt pretty nice but wasn't crazy with the type of plastic they used on the ends. They also don't have a great track record with their h/w.

The tech is still awfully young with no one having any track record except Apple (and you've all heard the issues they have been having). I am impatient about this stuff as you all and being early adopters always comes at a cost. I am forcing myself to wait till I can check out these tablets in person before I plunk down my benjamins. I will check out the Transformer for myself when it finally makes it to the brick and mortars but I am rather skeptical of them. Toshiba seems to fit my wants pretty well. I also like it has a user replaceable battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klau1:
most of these issues seem to be due to production variances since not everyone has the same problem. Which means you can easily find a better by exchanging your device.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilofox:
I appreciate you taking time to post your reasons for "throwing in the towel". However there is always a problem with these kind of posts. It suffers from "this is my experience, you can expect the same". You may not have meant it, but it can be preceived that way.

My experience has been just the opposite from yours... so who's experience with the TF is indicative of the product? Yours or mine?

I have yet to see any product that is massed produced from paperbooks, electronics, cars, to hamburgers ..... you name it, that doesnt have a few lemons get out there... its the nature of manufacturing. Its unavoidable.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enectic:
The one given away at the Google I/O is the same one that will be sold at retail sans the white back. There will be no USB on the device itself but instead there will be an adapter sold that will allow for USB connectivity. There will be no microSD because the microSD card slot will be the same slot that houses the SIM card. There will be microSD support on the wifi/3G model but not on the wifi only model. Seeing as how you've had an iPad and don't care for onboard ports and expandable memory (some of the biggest advantages of owning an Android tablet) then why not just buy an iPad 2? It appears to me that the Samsung tablet offers a gimped Android experience without handing over more money for the additional functionality.

EDIT: Also 32 gigs now days is fairly small when a movie itself takes up over a gig of space and music collections can span hundreds of gigs of space. Take into account memory reserved for the OS and apps and you're looking at only about 29 gigs of usable space on a 32 gig tablet for media.

ill buy the dock lol
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
But by me not posting this, then potential buyers will not be aware of the potential issues. The problem exists both ways - if only unhappy users post, then everyone reading will think there is a problem. If only happy users post, then everyone reading will think the product is perfect. That's why I have chosen to post MY review of the product. It's up to the satisfied customers to do the same to balance out the equation.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvoXOhio:
The reason I am not buying an iPad 2 is the same reason I switched to Android after having iPhones for 3+ years - I want to be in control of the device I own. I want to customize it. I do not want the manufacturer deciding if the content is appropriate or not. I do not want my device held hostage by a CEO with an ego the size of the universe. I want to switcher launchers. I want to switch default browsers. I want real background tasks and real multitasking. That's why I have chosen Android. I am so sick my Apple stuff it's ridiculous.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funnycreature:
I think there are plenty of posts here that discuss the problems that users encounter and the shortcomings that some users see. You see the same exact posts in every forum for every device so if a user only goes by that he/she will NEVER find a device. There will be just as many people hating and returning the Galaxy Tab 10.1 as there have been returns for the XOOM, the Acer and the Transformer. You made your decision and that's good. I just sold my XOOM, not because I was unhappy with it, but I wanted different features that the TF offers. Maybe I am too realistic to expect the perfect tablet. For me personally the TF has everything I need. Hopefully the 10.1 will be the right tablet for you!

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strikethreeout:
Can some of you post some pictures of your light bleed problems?

I have light bleed but to notice it, you'd have to crank the brightness up to max and be in a dark room. (Not a common situation I find myself in) Even when shutting off the lights, dimming down the brightness helps and the picture is still pretty clear. Also, light bleed is quite common in LCD screens.

I'm just having trouble understanding how light bleed can be so debilitating that some people would actually go through the trouble and exchange their unit multiple times.

I also have the creaky problem when I put moderate pressure on the back of my device but putting on the sleeve helped. (though it is not compatible with the dock)

Finally, I sympathize with your wake problems because my Xoom had this problem as well. I haven't experienced it with my TF but I can see how it can be an annoyance. Most of the other problems you can fix or put a band-aid on; but this one, you really can't. Not sure why we all aren't getting this problem since we are basically running the same software -- perhaps it's a problematic app or maybe an app triggered some sort of internal problem. (that's why I didn't dl the task killer this time)

Anyway, I'd try again but a refund isn't too bad either. We are still at an early stage with tablets so waiting a couple of months (but most likely sometime in 2012) might pay off.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hiro666:
Very good points. From the various polls I have seen, most have had zero to not many issues. It is easy to amplify those who have had issues and form a generalized opinion. I think the OP should take heed but perhaps wait till units are more readily available so if you need to exchange, it is easier to do. At least that's the tack I'm taking. :cool:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolWaters:
So far I've had none of these issues (almost 2 weeks now).

I couldn't be happier with the thing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] case0:
On the contrary I think these kind of posts don't "educate" people, but give people a false impression of the product. The thing with forums like this is that people come on to complain about things that go wrong and things they don't like, whereas only a small amount of people would start a thread just to say "yeh mine is working fine". I would put my money on there being a large majority of TF users who are happy with it. Just my opinion.

(And yeh I'm very happy with mine :P)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gadgetfann:
I think everyone has had some issues, but overall, the Transformer has exceeded my expectations. The support from Asus has also been great as they resolved the keyboard issue pretty quickly, IMO. I can understand why someone would return/exchange the product if there are build quality issues, but other stuff will either be resolved with an update to 3.1 or a firmware update by Asus. I wouldn't dream of returning my TF because there isn't anything on the market (or coming out soon) with its the price point and features.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orion01:
You will never be able to find the perfect device. It is just plain impossible with electronics. There will also be something better later down the road and every single device will always have their share of problems. I hope you are able to find something that will make you happy but I doubt it. I returned the Xoom for the TF and even though I have some minor light bleed I am extremely happy with the TF.

Good luck in your search, you will need it. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itaintrite:
There's nothing wrong with being unhappy with a $400 device. And nothing wrong with voicing your opinion. Do you think Asus employees visit these forums to see "yeah mine is working fine" posts or for posts that list the errors and defects of their device?

If you're happy with the Asus Transformer, great! If not, don't be mad because not everybody shares your joy.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekbabe:
It sounds like you have a unit that is physically defective,why not just RMA the unit or try to exchange it for a new one?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EMINENT1:
Here's another with zero wake issues. I do have a bit of light bleed, but not enough to return it. I can only see it when there's a black background, which is almost never. I love this thing too much to be without it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcde7ago:
There's got to be a bad batch of Transformers with the same/similar recurring issues, as I know myself and a few others personally who have not run into ANY issues aside from the dock issues (which were fixed) and minor light bleed.

I'd say return it for any reason you're not happy with it, but that's what happens to early adopters - sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't. I don't blame anyone for wanting perfection initially, but at the same time, the Transformer is still an amazing device if you were one of the ones that got a problem-free one.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silenceforus:
I agree with other posters. I've had.... zero issues with my Transformer. No light bleed, a SOLID build quality, screen looks great, I switched from the Asus on-screen keyboard to the stock Honeycomb one, that fixed my "lag" issue. The stock honeycomb keyboard is nice, but I switched to a thumbs style on-screen keyboard, and that was even better.

The dock has had no issues whatsoever, no charging issues to speak of.

This post makes me feel so grateful that I've had no issues. Most of us haven't.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FloatingFatMan:
And believe me, those of us still deciding which tablet to buy -really- appreciate such posts as well. We want to know the good AND the bad! ;)

So thanks for your input!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FloatingFatMan:
I find such posts VERY useful, personally. I'm well aware that most people post nothing but problems in forums such as this one, so I look at the specs, I look at the pros and cons, and I look VERY carefully at the problems people have. I'm well aware that there WILL be problems, so knowing which device has what issue helps me to decide which one to choose in the long run.

Right now, I'm still caught between the Transformer, and Acers Iconia Tab A500, with a strong leans towards the Transformer as my kids will be able to use it as as netbook too, for homework etc. This means that the posts about the keyboard disconnection problems have been VERY interesting for me!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dazz87:
I was thinking about returing my TF and waiting for the Samsung, but thats not going to happen now knowing that Samsung will not have an hdmi port, or sd card slot. I had my TF on launch day and overall I am pretty happy with the TF I got. I do have very minor backlight bleeding toward the bottom of the right side.

I dont know if its a hardware issue or software but the speakers totally suck. I dont have the unbalance issue like some of you guys but to me the speakers are way too low even when its turned all the way up. My biggest issue is with the software and not the hardware. Hopefully in June when 3.1 comes out it will resolves some of the issues that we are facing right now.

Btw was checking the Samsung forum and the people who are using the "Google I/O 10.1" are having the same issues we are having right now.

I used to have lower voltages but booting up was a hit or miss. Raising the top values helped, doesn't really affect me to much since I normally run at 1ghz anyway.
