OK, still no gmail widget, but I DO have resizable widgets. It's just that only some of the widgets are resizable. Calendar, mail (yahoo, etc.), bookmarks all seem to be resizable. Widgets from 3d party developers do not appear to be resizable.

Still looking for my gmail widget.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] theydonkno:
So I did your method and updated to 3.1 successfully and removed the SD card when it was done. When I checked the original thread on androidcentral their method mentioned receiving an user notification in five minutes that should update the docking station firmware to version 0209. But I never received the notification.

So I was wondering am I supposed to keep the SD card in after the reboot. Then again I do not own the dock yet(hard to find) so does it even matter?

Thanks in advance

for the people still with gmail widget..... did u have it wipe data?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrunchyDoodle:
Followed the instructions in an early post of this thread. It worked just right. I noticed some performance increases right away. The File Manager is better - way faster and more features. What is with the WiFi icon in the Notification tray - it's somehow animated - maybe showing activity. ;)

Cool ASUS! :D

Bye. :cool:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] tcjaym:
Im still waiting on the update notification doing it the micro SD and renaming way. Anyone know if I can force it?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
Renaming it to US_epad-user-8.4.4.5 is essential, the system won't recognize the update and thus won't prompt you to update if you leave it named EP101_SDUPDATE. I just installed it and I LOVE it, thanks to everyone who made this possible! Thank you Constantine for the awesome directions too!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] theydonkno:
I still have my gmail widget...weird
[Eee Pad Transformer General] froesei:
I'm getting the same thing as you - also running a Canadian Transformer. Anyone have any ideas for a fix? My software is the US version, not sure why this would be an issue.

Thanks for any suggestions...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
Check the lower right corner for a little triangle with an exclamation point, mine didn't come up with a notification either, but when I clicked on that it showed the update ready.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Djang2003:
anyone get their dock updated after installing 3.1?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krighton:
k..did the volume down power version and it worked.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
did u use the turn off button method or renaming it method? did u have it wipe the date?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gottahavit:
i know quadrant isnt the end all be all, but i have a distinct drop after updating. most scores around 1500, top score around 1700. before update i was consistantly getting 2100.

everything seems as ast as before but still early.

on the upside i am streaming a 720p avc that would stutter and puke before ;-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
I haven't yet, but it's just been a couple of minutes since I booted back up after updating. I have my GMAIL shortcut too, in fact, this didn't wipe anything, just updated it to 3.1, AWESOME!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] johantheolive:
Anyone else find that the dock keyboard can't be used to wake the system from sleep? Worked in 3.0.1 but now I have to hit the power button on the TF to turn back on.

It also seems slow to turn on the display out of sleep.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] theydonkno:
My update didn't wipe data, I did the renaming the zip file to US_epad-user-8.4.4.5.zip method
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dazz87:
I end up doing the power down method and no issues. Make sure you hit the vol up within the 5 second. It took me about 3 mins to flash it, and my all my apps were still there after the update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Visual360:
Still works for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
That's what I did too.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] haupman:
I didn't even change the name, just put the update zip file in the root of the SD card. Worked great.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:

my gmail widget didn't disappear.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] johantheolive:
I just tried the setting on and off (in the screen settings?) and either way it doesn't seem to wake from the keyboard. It also seems that when the setting is disabled the wake is much faster.

I also noticed in the 3 or so reboots since updating that their is a brief speaker pop at the Asus logo, after the eee logo.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
my transformer isnt rooted...so no go on titanium backup
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wolf1306:
Me too
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blackbozo:
Maybe a stupid suggestion, but I see alle the fuzz about the Gmail widget. Maybe the difference is in localisation. The guys who are from US all say it's there. Those of you were the widget is gone might be on WW dvice instead of US device?

I'm getting my ww device this wednesday, hoping for an official update soon!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
nope. my asus was bought in the us
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wolf1306:
I live in the us. Bought it on the us. No gmail widget
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mmoran27:
i have a us version

I am also missing widget and no movies from android market.

Did I install the WW version? It says US in about.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
I installed the US Version, and while I have the Gmail Widget I don't have movies in the Android market either.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RMXO:
Yah, I lost the Movies tab in The Market but no biggie for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ayman07:
Anyway one else experiencing a slight lag when moving from homescreen to homescreen still? I feel like this update isn't as good as I expected. I still get the popping noise from the speaker like when I have the key sounds enabled and I pause in between words or something, it happens. Everything seems slightly better but the problems are still there. I hope the official build addresses these issues once and for all!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
No, it seems fast to me, I don't notice any lag. The speaker popping seems to have been eliminated in this update, for me at least.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
xoom 3g only has the movies tab in market..... no one else will have it until later on.... im sure i downloaded the same update as everyone else.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
Where did you read that?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
google is your friend
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RMXO:
I just experienced the switching homescreen lag. But, when I tried to replicate it again & I wasn't able to.

My TF would always pop after every reboot or power on, but it doesn't anymore.

Now, if I can figure out how to get my wired Xbox controller to work, I'll be a happy camper.

All in all, I like the 3.1 update. I wonder if there is going to be any difference between the leaked & the official one.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] californiarailroader:
Really, I didn't know that, gee, thanks for letting me know. Now, for the OP to reply :) I guess there's a reason why I have a thanks meter of 40, and you have 0.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] cowballz69:
the homescreen lag is horrable, thankfully u can get ADW Ex in market and its 100% smoother
[Eee Pad Transformer General] slowhatch:
wtf i followed the instructions to the T and i cant for the LIFE of me get the TF to recognize an update.... rebooted 20x times and does nothing.

1. Created ASUS folder in microsd root

2. Created update folder

3. Placed zip in update folder and renamed to us_epad-user-8.4.4.5.zip

Does nothing.

I tried powering down, powering up VOL down and then pressing UP when in recovery and it looks like its doing something for a sec and then i get the android and ! for about 2-3 minutes, reboots, and im still on 3.0.1, wtf is going on.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
well u might eject and reinsert the card look at taskbar and see a triangle and it should update.....or put in the file w/out renaming it in the root of the microsd and hold volume down and power at same time.... wait till u see something in top left.... then press volume up
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Discusbass:
Hi

I dont think anyone with WW made this update work? Im on uk version and havent updated yet :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skeve:
I've got TW version of Transformer. Renamed the update file to TW_...zip, Transformer found the update, tried to install it, failed and reverted back to 3.0.1.

Any chance of us getting international (WW, TW, CN) 3.1 updates?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] slowhatch:
i've removed the sdcard back and forth 10x as well. I renamed the file back to the original name and did the recovery reboot and it seemed to work that time, so basically recovery only works if its in the microsd root and named EP101_SDUPDATE and the microsd ASUS/UPDATE only works with the other filename, although it never worked for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
did u originally download the tar or zip file.... if it was the tar file u needed to extract it w/ winrar and either keep it that file name or rename it
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lil4o8kid:
I hope I can help. I had the same issue until I noticed something. I dled the zipped file off this thread. it seems that the Zipped file has another zipped file in there. The 2nd zipped file is the one you need to put in the update folder and have it renamed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] krash183:
for the people w/ gmail widget can u check what gmail version u have..... under manage settings/all/gmail. i have 3.1-124046

I have a question and didn't really know where to post it.. so now i have a plan with my family and we all get unlimited 3g data like $30 a month i think..what i wanted to know was if i get a 4g phone like the thunderbolt how much extra would it cost for 4g? or how much extra would it add on the bill?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kidserious:
I was told by a Verizon Rep. that it would not cost anything extra. Unlimited data is unlimited data. You just have to get a 4g phone and hook it up. But, I found this hard to believe so who knows.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckirkp79:
How are you getting unlimited data for your whole family for 30 a month. One phone alone on our family plan the data is 30 and the other phone is 24 because of discount.

Am I missing a good deal somewhere lol
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drgonzoe:
Agreed data plans are deff not covered buy family share plans,I have to pay $30 for 3 diff lines each month.Only our minutes and text is included.As for 4G I wouldnt think they charge anything extra besides technically its really not even 4G just an upgraded 3G
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Viper_:
i meant 30 per person lol
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckirkp79:
Darn I was hoping there was a deal out there. Guess not w/verizon lol. I heard 4g data would be same price as 3g but once again this is verizon we talking about.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ataranine:
4G is same as 3G. I switched from a Fascinate to a Thunderbolt with no problems. They gave me a SIM card with my number from the Fascinate on it and I left the store happy.

I have no 4G towers close to me yet, though. :(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kcab87:
My battery life has drastically improved. I assume that the battery was conditioned properly. I'm going on 1 day, 4 hours and still have 18%. I worked a 16 hour shift, came home, and fell asleep forgetting to charge it, woke up and it was still alive. Amazing.

How has your battery life been?

How long did it take to see the improvement? I have had mine for 8 days now and it also appears to be improving. It's even starting to charge faster.

Sent from my Infuse 4G
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sinan2010:
it doesn't last for two days, my HTC HD2 which has 1230 mAh battery last for two days.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kcab87:
I left T-Mobile and my HTC HD2 for the Infuse. So I'm well aware of its capabilities. There are plenty of factors that contribute to helping battery life.

Personally, I have my brightness turned down to 0%. Which I believe is one of the main factors of saving battery life. Email, facebook, and other widgets are set to refresh in 30 minutes.

Also, I'm using about 90% percent of the apps I used on my HD2 on my Infuse, which may not contribute to battery life considering custom kernels and ROMs that the HD2 had. Hopefully, when development for Infuse increases, we will have access to even better and efficient battery usage.

Sent from my Infuse 4G
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Optimus-Prime:
haha what? were you not using it at all or something? i had my HD2 and i still do, battery wouldn't even last me a whole day even with wiping batterystats and everything...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rjan22:
It is not improving. You are just using it less because you are done customizing it for the longest time you cant let the thing relax for a while and out it on standby and now that you are done setting it up so now you use it for just the purpose so it lasted longer lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] b3asty:
LOL man. Actually I am a customization junkie and still find something new to do to it daily. It does feel as though the battery is getting more conditioned. I was just at 80% and took a nap. It went from 80 to 100 in less than an hour.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
Am I wrong, or if your charging from 80%, your not really properly conditioning it?

you're doing it wrong! :P
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rjan22:
Lithium ion does not need that reconditioning, that reconditioning is only for nicd battery. Actually lithium ion will get damage left without charge, so don't let your battery drain too much.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sinan2010:
yeah I agree with you, this is a good point I totally forgot about that the custom kernels and Roms. I hope that too to have custom kernels and roms for the Infuse.

I remember when I first got the HD2 with stock wm 6.5 the battery wasn't good.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] sinan2010:
Sorry I didn't mention that I was talking about the battery in standby. Last night I went to bed at 12:30 am and the Infuse battery was 77% when I woke up at 8:15 am the battery was 50%, 27% just gone that never happened to me in the HD2.

it's just about what kcab87 said the custom kernels and roms improved the the battery usage for the HD2.:)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
i have heard that these batteries dont beak in and dont respond to conditioning. im no sure if i believe that. but what i will say is that that battery takes a good 3-5 days to calibrate in the system and that battery cvalibration proceedures can do more harm than good in that i have always had weird calibration bug using those stupid proceedures! also for some reason it does seem like it takes less and less time to charge the batteries from samsung as time goes on. havent noticed this on aftermarket bateries but even my captivate took forever to charge the first week i had it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] esprit1st:
I noticed the other day, that my battery drained about 20% during the night with flightmode on. So no network connections at all. Weird behaviour!

I just learned about Juiceplotter and will keep track of it to find out about it's behaviour.

First few charges took forever though. Didn't keep track of that lately since I try to charge it overnight. One thing for sure: my battery lasts about 1 day sometimes less if I use it more (no kidding ;) )
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hoofadoo:
This is my 5th day with the phone... This morning I decided to get rid of Advanced Task Killer Free, because I had heard it was pointless to use it. and HOLY COW... I am getting KILLER battery life today. Im usually down to 80% by now, but I'm still at 94%.

Also, just for reference, I froze with Titanium Backup Pro:

All the AT&T... crap

Hi guys.

trying to be a bit cheeky here. i just broke the screen on my beloved euro hd2. So i was gonna get an american friend to buy and send me a hd2. (i live in england btw)

However, i then remembered the evo 4g! Not just coz of that great youtube classic.

So do you think i should take the leap and buy an evo or stick with the hd2?

appreciate any thoughts.

Unless you have a CDMA carrier available in Europe that will allow you to activate the phone on their network, I think it's the HD2 for you.

Yes evo is only cdma sorry mate
