[Eee Pad Transformer General] VoXHTC:
If all I did was word documents and excel files locally, then hooray!

It's a new age, I have 30 people or more that access 1 file. I live in Google Docs. I must have access to it.

I have must have remote access to Terminal Servers on the company server.

I must be able to copy and past into and out of what I need. My notebook does all of this. As well as my netbook.

Hell my cellphone can even connect to Terminal Services...itty bitty screen though.

My cellphone gets email and texts...

Where does this device fit in?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] life64x:
It does not fit in anywhere, you don't need it---don't buy it. Prove me wrong...go out buy one with a #) money back policy. Play with it and see how you really don't need it. Only when you have it in your hands can you justify it or utterly rejected and not need us to hold your hands
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbpaddler:
No offense, but if you have certain needs, why not do a little research yourself into the capabilities of android instead of sounding a bit like an ass just trying to provoke some conversation?

And, as I noted, I do pretty much everything on my phone as much as possible. But, it's a 4" screen with a small slide out keyboard. A far cry from my 12" thinkpad. Yet access is instant on my phone. Now if I could just have a bigger version of my phone with a little more connectivity, memory, nicer screen and bigger keyboard, I'd have quicker access and not much need for a travel laptop.

Not sure what kind of phone you have, but you figured out remote connection on it. You obviously have some brain cells working. So again, if you can't do some simple research and figure out if Android OS has the capabilities you need for work purposes, well then shame on you. If you have an Android phone, then you have less brain cells than I'm giving you credit for. Not to make that sound like a dig, but you made a deal about remote connectivity on your phone but the screen is tiny. So gee, wouldn't that nice instant access OS on your phone that gives you work functionality be much more convenient in a form factor of an ultraportable lap or netbook? If

And I use sugarsync to sync my files from phone to tablet to laptop to cloud. I can work on work files anywhere and always have the latest saved version. And remote desktop functionality? Quite common on android. Heck, Asus includes it's own app for it as well. I'd do that let me google that for you thing, but that just gets old. But seriously, it takes seconds to do a google search.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] VoXHTC:
Thanks, I'm cured. I'm an idiot.

I have an HTC Evo 4G. If only I had put my Phone in my signature..then you would have kn...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kdeguy:
Not sure about the cured bit, but the rest is rather self-evident. Not to mention rude.

If only I didn't uncheck "show signatures" in my thread display options...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
The Transormer has effectively eliminated my need for a top of the line phone since it does more than a phone while still being light enough to carry around. Everything I did on my phone (email, browsing, portable media, emulators and more) my tablet does, just better and easier.

Spoiler: Top of the line phones are more expensive than the transformer. And no just because its on contract doesn't mean it's free.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stcardinal:
I doubt I'll carry the TF around. I may bring it more on roadtrips however, but it won't replace my phone at all. I'll just be my light weight computer that I take around the house with me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbpaddler:
I couldn't imagine it replacing my phone either. I'm so used to the functionality, speed, screen and such. How do i go backwards? Unless it was something like the Droid Pro that gives me the Treo like form factor I've grown to like over the years. And the phone still has some guts to it too.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ciggies:
I wouldnt worry about the Fry's return bit. I ran into the same issue with Roku last year, just returned boxes all over. I asked the assistant he shrugged and said people couldnt figure them out. Roku has worked flawlessly for me.

As for whether or not you want one. If you feel queasy about it then dont. Same advice as all hardware purchases. I love mine but I am distrustful of the power adaptor, aside from that its fabulous.

It costs you nothing to stay on the sidelines till holiday and see how things look then, doubtless there will be more OS upgrades and more apps and ASUS will soft rev if there are any hardware issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dfin13:
Geez, if someone can't figure out a Roku, then they just need to quit buying electronics period :) My 63-year-old father was zipping (OK, not zipping, that remote is terrible) around the interface in no time.

I tote my TF around to work or on trips, but I can't shove it in my pocket so it's not going with me everywhere like my phone. Besides, I need my phone to tether my TF to.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
They started as a grocery store and run their business on the same margins and sometimes it seems on the same staff. Imagine the guy down at Tesco that bags the groceries is fixing your computer and you get the idea.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] javroch:
Anybody else not have any idea what he's talking about, about Transformers "failing left and right"? People need to understand that most posts on forums like these are from people who are having issues, you don't generally hear about the success stories, there's no need to brag when things are working as they should be in the first place.

As well, I tend to think, maybe because mine is working perfectly, that a lot of the issues are more user-related than software related, and definitely not hardware related. I'm thoroughly impressed with the hardware / build quality of this device
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
You don't need a smartphone to tether FYI.

I take my TF anywhere since it's small and light enough to easily fit in my bag and carry around. So yes it has basically turned my smartphone into a phone.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dfin13:
Well I don't carry a bag around everywhere I go, so there is no way in hell my TF will ever replace my Evo :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sackofnoise:
Same here, perfect :D

whenever you guys see thread like this, i think it's best to just post this link, then wash your hands of it.

otherwise, it'll just lead to frustration on all parties.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dave2g:
I don't know if it's been said already, but I personally bought mine from Fountain Valley, CA Fry's. It had been returned unopened and the Customer Service Represented had opened it to confirm that it hadn't been repackaged. I've had mine for a few weeks now and it's been nothing short of bliss :D.
[EVO Shift 4G General] NavalFluff:
I just flashed MikShift v 1.1 onto my shift last night, restored my apps with TB and then left the phone to do its sync with facebook contacts and whatnot. But to my surprise, when I woke up this morning the phone was still syncing but I only have about 4 contact pictures. I was on my home wifi network but I don't know if that would make a difference. Does anyone have a solution to this?
[EVO Shift 4G General] prboy1969:
Try rebooting the phone. Had an issue similar to this a while back. Rebooting the phone solved it.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Try

1) removing and readding the account

2) run fix permissions from clockwork/rom manager

3) If that doesn't work then reflash.
[EVO Shift 4G General] briangtbc:
I came on here to ask about excessive syncing as well, but I'm running the stock ROM on an unmodified EVO Shift. I am having issues with the sync icon in the notification area blinking on and off constantly. I have rebooted the phone multiple times and it has not helped.
[EVO Shift 4G General] riggsandroid:
have either of you removed FriendStream or any other apps that may be attempting to stream thru remnants left over? (I know from experience)
[EVO Shift 4G General] NavalFluff:
Yes, I froze anything FriendStream using TB.
[Milestone 2 General] zibizz1:
In first call after reset the speaker doesn't work. Somebody hears me but I can't hear him. In second call everything is ok. I reset phone only once or twice a week but it is really annoying. Does anyone have a similar problem?
[Milestone 2 General] Liori:
2.2.2 fixed this bug
[Milestone 2 General] handsomeboy1702:
just my curiosity: why do you reset your phone once or twice a week?
[Milestone 2 General] frenetico:
Just enable and disable the speaker once during the first call and everything should be perfect. ;)
[Milestone 2 General] zibizz1:
It turns off when battery runs out and sometimes(as today) apps with bugs freeze phone and it reset. I mean reset as reboot.
[Milestone 2 General] inheme:
I have the same problem!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdweiler:
Still looking for the definitive answer whether or not CWM is safe to use with the GTab. I have found so many yes and no answers throughout the forums. Does anyone know for sure?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themoose:
I've been running CWM via RomManager and Cyanogen's latest nightly with no issues at all. The only glitch was no sound after install but after a reboot it's all golden. The only down side is no hardware acceleration or good video drivers due to not having source yet.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copc:
Maybe if you posted in the correct place, you would get more "definitive" answers? :eek:

Mod please move
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamhead:
From what I can gather, there are two types of people running ROM Manager:

1) those who have borked their tabs, and

2) those who have not yet borked their tabs
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Exactly my sentiment. Use cwm and save yourself nvflashing to recover from a serious borkjob.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
I currently have the 1080p 30fps camera mod on and I'm wanting to go back to the original, i have the camera.apk to go back on but when I try to push it, it says READ ONLY FILE SYSTEM.

I had a hunt around and found this but didn't work

adb shell sysrw

adb push (file name.apk /system/app/)

adb shell sync

adb shell sysro

then i found this

adb shell mount -o remount,rw,codepage=utf8,vfat,xattr,check=no /dev/stl5 /system

and that didn't work, Im pretty new to ADB etc and trying to get the hang of it so take it easy on me :D
[LG Optimus 2x] 75markus:
you can use my zip in recovery

stock_Camera
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
LOOOOL this is the 1080p 30fps that i already have on my phone I wanna go back to stock.

I will put my STOCK camera.apk in the zip

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
didn't work

Anymore idea's

Or Commands
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Bump......
[LG Optimus 2x] Kag:
i think you need to su first?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
adb remount before adb shell
[LG Optimus 2x] xxdoggyxx:
Hi, You can download the original LGE-Camera.apk file below...

Google or yahoo or find your way to get an app called: root manager(Paid app on market)

Not suppose to talk about 'where-to-download-paid-app' here... So i guess you need to google.

Copy the Camera.apk to SDCARD

Go to System>App>, Mount R/W, Delete the camera app.

Go back to SDCARD and cut/copy the camera.apk

Return to System>App>Paste file here.

You can see the 'Mount R/W' Button on the 'App' folder itself. So don't ask me how to mount R/W.

Cheers :D A reboot may be necessary.
[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
in adb you need to enter

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
[LG Optimus 2x] Kickasskev:
Thanks for all the replys i will try them when i get home from work

Any idea ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Don't install it, push it into place.
[LG Optimus 2x] xxdoggyxx:
Yes, by you don't need to install those default apk. Just place it in system/app, and you will see it in your menu screen. If nothing happen, reboot your phone.

I DID NOT MEAN TO POST THIS AS A NEW THREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How do I remove it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E46M3:
Well.. mine is at least. I almost wanted to return the damn thing when I first got it about a month ago. Not sure why it's working flawlessly now, maybe it's due to all the updates. But it is working prefectly now! no more deep sleep problems, no more random disconnect from wifi. heck, even the browser is working nicely now!! Hope I didn't jinx myself.. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VoXHTC:
sigh.

it's not magical or by chance that it's working now.

It's the update.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrykur:
Mine has pretty much worked the same since day one. No real lag except in videos.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djang2003:
i sideloaded the 3.1 leaked update and at first it was coughing up some lags, esp noticeable when flipping between homescreens even with a static wallpaper. now its running buttery smooth, from homescreens, virtual and physical keyboard functions, app and browser opening and closing, and overall browser performance. its been 2 days since i sideloaded, and havent really tweaked anything.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbirsen:
I haven't loaded the leaked 3.1 yet, still waiting for the official OTA to pop up on my screen. however my experience is a bit the opposite, it was pretty smooth at the beginning, but in the last few days things started getting a bit sluggish.

One reason might be Firefox, as it did the same on my Desire HD, and when I checked settings/applications, I realized it was using around 510MB space... so I deleted all data, and the Desire went back to normal. Might do the same to my Transformer and hope it'll fix things, though I'd be loosing all history, synced stuff etc...not so great.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] transformerfan:
Mine has been fine. I am basically running stock.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paradaz:
I've not tried the 3.1 update yet but noticed the biggest difference moving from stock to launcherpro....the animations and general feel are a lot smoother with instant reponse now.
[Thunderbolt General] StephenMilone:
Okay so i know for a fact that I'm not receiving some messages, while receiving others just fine. And ironically the 3 contacts I know of who's texts I'm missing are all on verizon too (OG droid, LG ally, iphone)

First let me backtrack on what i did with my phone when i realized this was occuring....was running Froyo Das BAMF 1.6.3 w/ imo's lean kernel with the included radio in that thread. Then last friday (about 10 days ago) I decided to dive into gingerbread w/ gingeritis then eventually das bamf 2 and flashed the new radio. worked great, so i thought.

Monday while on GB i asked my friend a qustion via text, no answer, found out Weds AM he responded almost immediately and i just never got it

Then Weds PM was the whole Gingerbread causes brick fisaco. So i followed the instructions for reverting by jcase then just did a nandroid restore on my 1.6.3 Rom...coughing up my text mishap with the leaked radio. but now over this weekend the same friend with the iphone texted and 2 other contacts...never got them. but i've had text convos with other people fine...

in order to resolve this i've tried the following:

uninstalling handcent and going w/ htc msg app

upgrading/wiping das BAMF to 1.7 and then also re flashing the radio in that thread.

anyone else have any insight? thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] 1234567188:
No, But on saturday, I had like a 4 hour window where I recieved no texts I could call and get on the internet though.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
Self-dangerous noob here. NC 1.2, theoretically returned to stock:confused:

History:

Got NC 1.2

Rooted w/ManualNooter 4.5.25. Everything seemed to go great. So...

Downloaded, backed up, and flashed CM7 in ROM Manager

Wouldn't boot...hung on n COLOR screen

Same results w/ Phirerom (CM7 based - doh)

Able to restore MN4.5.25 from CWM - BUT noticed "Error formatting /data!" during nandroid restore. Didn't seem to matter...restore successful

Get "Error formatting /data!" no matter what

Able to boot into CM7 from SD, but it has "problems". For instance, there are no "back" or "return" softkeys. So there is no way to navigate around any app! Only the hard "n" home key works

Reflashed stock 1.2

Seemed to work, began to ask me to reregister. BUT, it won't display the keyboard, so I'm stuck at the "Login with your existing B&N...." screen! Keyboard flashes up and then immediately disappears!

As an noob, it occurs to me that all my problems are related to my inability to format the /data partition (if it's even called a partition).

Can any of you awesome people help me? And, if I'm in the wrong forum, any directions would also help. Thanks.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShutterPeep:
have you tried removing CWR then do the 8-boot reset?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
No, every time I've done it, it boots into CWR. Maybe REMOVING it will help. lol. Sorry to be so inept. I can flash the 1.2 stock that will remove CWR. Is that the way to do it?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
Worked like a charm

Removing CWR and 8-boot-interrupts did the trick. I'm now back to a fully stock NC 1.2.0. Ready to roll up my sleeves and re-brick!

This is the most amazing community. The closest thing I have to any technical knowledge is speaking a little Klingon. VERY little. But, I have learned more here by reading these threads for a couple hours...OK, several hours... than my wife has learned in a dozen trips to the apple store. I feel more empowered every day. You are all great. Can't thank you enough.:D
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] systoxity:
Goldie, I wasted a bunch of time on this last night. I'm guessing you have a new nook. If you do, slap cwr on your SD (3.0.2.8 or something) and look for the thread that tells you how to repartition your nook. Follow instructions to set it to the old way. After that run manualroot zip through cwr. Reboot to cwr and wipe data, system, cache. Finally install your rom of choice from your SD card through cwr. That's what I did to finally get it to work.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
Thanks. I'll give this a try. As you probably guessed, I DO have a new NC, and while I was able to get it back to 100% stock, and easily reregister it, I had the same results. The ONLY way I can get CM7 running is off the SD card. So, I'll try the partitioning trick. Why do I get the feeling this is going to work? Unfortunately, I'm not on dev's time... I'm at work by 7:30am EDT, but in bed pretty early. I REALLY appreciate the response. Later this week I'll install SDK, and all my tools at home so I'll be able to stay up all night with you awesome folks.:)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
still looking for the thread on re-partitioning. I found the thread on restoring, but I get the error every time I try to reformat the /data.:confused:
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldiefish:
No luck. I can restore to stock 1.2, reregister, and MN 4.5.25, all easily. BUT, once I flash CM7 (or Phiremod 6.3, etc.) it hangs at the "n C O L O R" screen (C O L O R flashing at various speeds just to fool you into thinking it's actually going to work). Here's what I've noticed...after flashing CM7, the ADOBE screen no longer flashes up at boot. Once it fails to boot the Adobe software, it won't boot at all. So, for now, I guess I'm running CM off my SD unless anyone can suggest anything.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] systoxity:
Goldie u have to repartition to get it working. Ill go look for the thread. Also maybe you should try out the cm7 mod over the phiremod Tom. I'm on phiremod now and the lag is killing me

Wow that was painful to find. Needs a sticky.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1094371

Edit: I take that back about the lag, set your cpu to 1200 in the ROM and change yourgovernator to interactive for an amazingly smooth experience
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] semperlux:
I've been going nuts trying to figure this out. I too ran into the "error format /data" message but I powered through it only to end up at at the Android logo--nothing. Out of frustration, I returned to CWR and wiped everything--like on my Evo (did not go through to mounts option). That seemed to go through /data but I don't know the difference between a

wipe

and a

format

(I'm looking...). Still got bootloops. I tried to return to stock but the 8 interrupts wouldn't work.

Pressing START and N worked though and that got through to CM7 and it's working great now but I'm afraid to do anything else because I still get the "error formatting /data" message.

I've heard horror stories (bricking beyond repair--if that's possible) of users repartitioning their drives though so... I hope there's another solution out there.

this worked great for me too! i had a nookcolor bought in december and it had a messed up chargerand 6 really bright white spots that were really noticiable. went to b&n store and the guy just gave me a new one. it came with 1.2 and i had the cwm sd from the old one. so tried restoring my cm7 backup from the old one and error formatting data came up. flashed this zip, and im wondering, since these are too different nookcolors, should i restore the cm7 backup or flash it brand new. because i had a ton of stuff on the old one and i dont want to lose it. so can i ust do advanced restore and restore data, or can i restore the whole thing or just flash and slowly get my stuff back?
