The rep told me they were drop shipping from their distributor (that's why they can't give you ETA).
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Heathsrow:
Yeah the rep did not tell me that. He said he had no ETA, so I checked around and found for about the same price (Actually cheaper since I had gotten two day shipping from Tigerdirect) at MicroCenter! I am happy now as my dock charges...good luck all...
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] timekillerj:
Called them today, the rep said they were due to get "thousands" tomorrow (5/05). I told him I'd call back tomorrow then.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I'm not surprised. They were taking orders for the dock for the entire day.

Do you mean 6/6?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] californiarailroader:
I'm sure he meant 6-6 too, UPS and FedEx don't deliver on Sunday's, however, the US Postal Service will on request.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] swan3609:
I called to Cancel my order on Saturday to free up funds to buy else were and I was told that they were supposed to get a shipment of about 1,000 on Friday and only 75 showed up.. I was then told that they will be receiving "more" on Monday and/or Tuesday..

I dont know how many "more" is..
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] timekillerj:
Yes, 6/6 - sorry
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I just called to cancel but decided not to.

On Friday, they expected to get 2,000 units. They only got 75. Now this guy is in the office and couldn't confirm what was in their warehouse. Apparently he told me the site (CompUSA/Tiger Direct/SYSTEM-Max) gets over 15k orders per day. Now the the docking stations could be in their loading dock and haven't been put into their system/inventoried... I'll wait till Wednesday or Thursday and if it hasn't shipped, then I'll cancel.

FWIW.

Amazon has it in stock: http://amzn.to/msXLaR

Asus might want to look into firing whoever is in charge of distribution, they've done a bang-up job of screwing this launch up.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] kushari:
How do you know that? Supply is much less than demand, it was reported on engadget. Don't throw out comments like that when you have no idea of the circumstances.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dfin13:
What, is the guy your cousin or something? Gosh, I hope I didn't get him fired with that comment!

If a company, especially a retailer the size of Tiger Direct, is expecting 1000 and they receive 75, there is an issue with distribution, it is not a supply/demand issue. If there was a problem with supply, Tiger Direct would not be expecting 1000, they'd be expecting 75. There's a kink in the distribution chain where retailers are being told to expect x while receiving y, and it's making Asus look a little sloppy.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] BigSidfromLaramie:
There was another problem w/Tiger: When I ordered last week, the Dock was "in stock." A couple of days later, an earlier poster advised that same was now backordered. When I checked my order, still showed as being ordered. However, next day, turned up as a back order. The Customer Service Rep could not answer my question as to how this happened but apologized. Based upon the initial report of Amazon now having some, I purchased the Dock on Amazon and cancelled Tiger order. However, to be fair, this distribution problem is all over the place. Demand far exceeds supply. I am reminded [although this shows my age :)] when Radio Shack sold its entire anticipated yearly supply of the venerable Model 1 in the first month!! Fortunately I got one of those. Unfortunately, I did not save it as a collector's item. Oh well.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Tortel1210:
I placed an order with amazon, and still have one with TD right now. Going to cancel whoever doesnt ship first.

It is annoying that they allowed orders for a shipment they didnt have yet
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
Now Amazon is OOS, I hope they'll ship mine.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dfin13:
I learned to program on a Model III :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
Canceled my Amazon and TD dock orders, just ordered it on NewEgg! They're much quicker to ship, had to pay a bit of tax, but I'm okay with that.

Tablet (from TD) should arrive Thursday, Newegg dock, Thursday as well. Today is a good day :).
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] BigSidfromLaramie:
Do you mind if I inquire whether you have enabled any type of email notification prior to shipment? My recollection is that unlike J & R, which I know has email notification if enabled, once Tiger gets the shipment it will send same immediately to you w/o further ado. If I am wrong, I apologize.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] BigSidfromLaramie:
I just checked my Dock order @ Amazon. Scheduled for delivery on the 10th.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I canceled my Amazon order. Got it from NewEgg (tracking info right now), delivery on the 9th with the 3day shipping.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] kushari:
Who told you that they were promised that many? Just because they say they are expecting that many, doesn't mean that is correct, since many thing happen from the start to finish of a supply chain ( I studied this) and another point. Even if they did order 1000 and asus can't keep up with demand, that's production not distribution.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dbiggss:
Spoke with a rep today who also said they only got 80. Told me there was no eta on when the stock would be replenished. Cancelled my order.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] insight76:
Look, I'm sure your cousin isn't going to get fired for this... relax :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dfin13:
Expected = "We ordered 1000, and we expect 1000." Business isn't about "promises" it's about invoices. You don't make retailers happy by selling them x number of items, while shipping y, especially when x is 1000 and y is 75 :D

I'm not doubting the supply is low. I'm just saying supply should not have anything to do with not honoring an invoice -- you don't sell what you don't have, or expect to have in time to fulfill the agreement. That's just bad business. Your uncle or granny or nephew needs to be fired for hurting business relationships.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dbiggss:
One way or the other, for me anyways, it just pissed me off that when I ordered it they showed in stock; then, after I paid it ends up being backordered. I could have been ordered the dock from someone else that was taking preorders on a shipment that they were expecting.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] murd0ck77:
I totally agree with you. I did the same thing, Ordered on Friday (when they said they did have it), then on monday no email, no phone call nothing that my order was backordered. TD as I am sure other companies charges your account. I cancelled my order but it still takes 3-5 business days to credit my account back.

I ended up ordering from amazon and its already shipped and tracking number in hand. Funny thing is with amazons shipping I will actually get it faster than had the order gone through TD.

It is bad business by TD, they are selling a bill of goods they do not have -they should have stated expecting/preorder. I would guess this is how they make a good chunk of money and lower their "cost". Just look at this item - they thought they were getting a 1,000 - assume they got 575 orders - filled the 75 (the units they actually got) and still are collecting interest on our money for 3 - 5 days, do this on 1,000 different items and you are talking some serious bonus money...

I am sure others have had good experiences with TD but I found them to be very shady and will not send them my business anymore.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dfin13:
Can't you just request a refund? I rarely order from TD after some rebate shadiness years ago, but I assume they'd refund your money if the item went into backorder due to Asus shorting them 900 units.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] jayson269:
New Egg has got 'em

Get 'em while there hot!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] jhanford:
Got my order in at Newegg this morning. Hopefully have it by Friday. Currently loving my brand new, rooted, overclocked TF!

With regards to the TD fiasco: They simply should not have shown the dock as in stock if that did not, in fact, have them. For crying out loud, it's 2011. How hard is it to have someone put in an inventory count (75, 1000, whatever) and have the site automatically switch to "Pre-order/Out of stock" when that count is reached.

More than likely they were trying to get as many orders in as they could opportunistically to captcher the weekend traffic.

There's no way they would have been told they were receiving 1000 and only end up receiving 75. I suspect the "1000" is a number the sales team were told to bandy around to make it look like TD was the place to go for this device
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] somewhatdamaged:
Hi all,

First post ever in XDA :D

Anyhoo, same deal for me - ordered from TD - got the BS backorder answer. I cancelled and luckily got one from Newegg and it already shipped this morning. Lesson learned no more TD for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] biiggmike23:
Got the back order thing to, then ordered from amazon it was suppose to be here today i thought till now when i went for the tracking number and it says expected delivery date Thursday, and the seller has raised the price since then,,

I don't know what you do, I got my Transformer yesterday late night, and have been playing with it all day. I need my keyboard!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] signops:
My first post too.

I'm sitting in India and got this ordered through my friend in US on TigerDirect.

I was mighty pissed off because while I waited for my friend to confirm, Amazon and Newegg had stocks. I could not order on their sites.

I'm waiting till the 12th and then I'm going to ask my friend to cancel. Not going to shop with TD again. They cant work with 19th century business policies.

Have stock will sell, not anticipate stock sell outright.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Tortel1210:
Cancelled my orders with Amazon and TD, got one from Newegg. Its arriving this afternoon too:)

Another reason why I like Newegg, they *never* backorder items, and rarely preorder. If they dont have it, they wont sell it to you until they do.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] swan3609:
I had ordered from TD but I canceled there and got mine through newegg..and I also got my tablet ordered from newegg..no tax and $20 for next day delevery is sweet.

[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] greeny2010:
I order a bundle deal from TD on June 27 and is still waiting for its delivery. TD promo states the caption of Order Today, Ships Today. Why give such promise when TD cannot cope with the demand. I should have get it from Newegg instead.

UPDATE - Received email from TD and I should be getting the bundle on 10 June. Yeah!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] <Laharl>:
I placed my Order on June 5th and just got my notification!!!!

Order Status:	Shipped - These items have shipped. Please check your email for tracking information.

And they were getting 1000 but they didn't arrive at the correct time, since I work in retail I understand about UPS or Fedex misplacing a box and how hard it is to keep people happy, so I didn't cancel my order or complain to them but I did the quick chat and asked if they had a estimated date and the guy told me to check back in 2 days and so I gave them 3 days and viola it has been shipped!!!!

So can't wait!

I ordered on monday (after cancelling with td) it arrived today one day faster than td claimed it would (ordered last friday). I will say this the dock is awesome, yes there is a slight learning curve and you will be glad you got it.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Torma616:
Hey XDA, it's been a while since I've been here (2 years ago when I had the HTC Touch Pro and WinMo6)

I just got the Thunderbolt, and I love it. My complaint is with the keyboard, the default sound is too loud, obnoxious and I personally don't like the sound effects. I DO want my keyboard to make a noise when I type, but I don't like the default sound. How can I change it.

Additional Info: I extracted "tock.aiff" from the iPhone simulator (I like that noise much more), converted it into .ogg and replaced the 4 .ogg files in /system/media/audio/ui. For some reason, this worked, but only sometimes; instead of clicking on every press, it clicks sporadically. What am I doing wrong.

Help is GREATLY appreciated.

UPDATE: I figured it out. I had to change the permissions of the files. It works perfectly now (just change them to match all the other sound's permissions in that folder; the first line - RW, the second - R, the third - R. it should say rw-r--r-- when you're done).

Hi guys =)

right now I'm in Azerbaijan Republic and i am using the local mobile operator Azercell here.

i went to their office and they gaved me the gprs internet settings for my vibrant.

but the problem is that i cant log in to internet with programs like Skype, Youtube and android market. however the web browsers like opera and native browser of android works in internet very well.

i dunno how to fix this problem =(

i already tried to reinstall programs, restart my phone but none of these progams wants to work.

they say that i dont have internet connection.

but i know that i have it cos the web browser works!

Does anyone knows why this happening?

and how can i fix dat?

Thank you in advance!

P.S.

my phone is unlocked with unlock code that i bought online. so i never did any system changes to phone

Can you flashback to previous rom, copy the apps with Root Explorer and put in dummy folder, reflash the rom you are on now and install the apks to data or system whichever you want/need. I did this for another app of khal's I wanted and it worked pretty well. If it is a market problem, I know Titanium has a market fix, think Link2sd does too.

[General Questions and Answers] Karthik K:
Hi, I'm planning to buy motorola DEFY in a short while. Given that it is still on Eclair(officially, for India.Though motorola's site says that FroYo update is scheduled for Q2 2011, I doubt they are going to release it on-time :( ) how does it fare in terms of UI responsiveness, battery life(hopefully 2 days on average use?),call quality, loudness etc?

I've been a Samsung bug till now, and jumping to moto(with a locked bootloader?) for my first android device is kind of making me have second thoughts about this phone :confused: :confused: My budget is also capped near DEFY's price range(~18k INR). I'll probably tinker with my phone in the first week itself, and also wanted to know if the dev community for DEFY is good(I don't care if it's not the best, but it should be good).

Finally, I want to know if I'm missing out on anything that's better at a lower cost. I'm new here(joined a couple of days back, but didn't have time to post), so I hope I have posted it at the right place :)

Thanks in advance...
[General Questions and Answers] Gusar321:
The dev community for the Defy is crazy! The locked bootloader isn't an obstacle for them. There's Cyanogenmod7 and MIUI available, both of which are Gingerbread. They're still a bit rough, but give it a few weeks and they'll shine. Until then, there's Froyo ROMs to choose from.

In this price range, the only other phones I could find were the Samsung Galaxy Ace and the HTC Wildfire S, both of which have a lower resolution display (480x320, compared to Defy's 854x480) and a less good processor.

There's a dedicated Defy section here at XDA. Check that out. The huge amount of activity there, plus the low price for great hardware, is what convinced me to buy a Defy despite the locked bootloader.
[General Questions and Answers] Karthik K:
Thanks for the info. I'm ordering it today :D

I press the menu button and end button to turn on the screen but it doesn't work. It will boot into recovery and the buttons work there. I have no idea whats wrong with the phone.

I just bought a new gtablet. It has the latest TanpNTap. I actually like the TapnTap and is not bad at all. However I would like to know if I can do the following without rooting

1. Install apps from Amazon?

2. Install google apps

Do I need to be root for this? If rooting is needed can someone point to some links. If something goes wrong I want to be able to revert back to stock. I have read quite a bit and I can't figure out a step-by-step to root. I am not interested in installing a custom ROM like Vegan or TnT lite yet.
