[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
so i guess that begs the question: is your TF's performance lower?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dcmtnbkr:
I noticed this too... BUT... the system seems a lot faster and more responsive, so i guess scores arent everything.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] aibo:
For sure score isn't everything, even more with quadrant.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrevankyle:
quadrant came out and has not been updated since the nexus 1 got 2.2. so its kind of flawed and old. current best benchmark is either Vellamo or AnTuTu
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brando56894:
Vellamo is a web browser benchmark IIRC, where as Quadrant is a CPU/GPU benchmark. I dont know about the other one you mentioned.

15xx is pretty damn low, I'm getting around 35xx with Quadrant at 1.5 GHz. Check your clockspeed in setcpu to make sure nothing is out of wack.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zephiK:
Or CF Bench
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tortel1210:
Or actually using the tablet. If it seems faster when you use it, its better. Benchmarks are pretty useless, especially since they can be skewed or manipulated
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Zepius:
quadrant is a horrible benchmark. there are hacks and tweaks to get you stupid high scores.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Proz00:
Wierd i get2 2600
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
That's dumb. I clearly spent 400 dollars so I can get my electronics to tell me that I am cool. If my number is lower, then I am not cool.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] seedofchaos:
My quadrant is 1.7 not rooted or anything. I must say this tab runs extremely fast and I have no problems with it minus apps crashing once in a blue moon. If quadrant ment something my vibrant has 2.2k and it still doesn't run as smooth as my tab
[Eee Pad Transformer General] life64x:
I too used to be quadrant this or that using it as a gauge...then after I owned a few android devices...I came to the conclusion...its a piece of ****... First its inaccurate...my EVO. 3d is way faster then my color nookut yet I get better scores with the nook...same with the tf...second...it uses testing methods that can be cheated by some settings...hardware stuff..3rd...if you run it 3 times...you will usually get 3 different darn scores that range widely. To me using is the best test...not benchmarks..however if you need to use this as a guage...do it...but be warned...for real life...it don't mean anything
[Eee Pad Transformer General] life64x:
It's not dumb when the software is deeply, deeply flawed....quadrant that is.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sassafras_:
I think your sarcasm meter is broken.

...

Quadrant is broken because it doesn't weight different aspects of the benchmark equally. The Nexus One has a terrible GPU but a fast CPU, so it gets decent scores. The BN Nook Color has a mediocre CPU and a decent GPU so it scores better than the N1 even though the N1 is clearly the superior device.

Changing the file system to something journaled can bump your Quadrant score a few hundred points, which is dumb.

The ideal benchmark would somehow score in a way that represented the overall user experience. Unfortunately, no such benchmark exists for Android. Until then, it's just these pieces of crap that only exist so teenagers can show off their e-peen on the internet.

sassafras
[Eee Pad Transformer General] life64x:
I was saying that!!! I figured from your first reply...if you spent 400 it should be off the chain for the score. Quadrant is deeply, deeply flawed. If I mis-read your reply then it is my fault but I was not using sarcasm or being flippant but just stating what we both said.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] finalhit:
he wasn't accusing you if being sarcastic, he was being sarcastic.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] life64x:
Thanks, my bad. I am a optimist and thought my pessimist came out...:) With only a couple hours sleep my mind plays tricks on me. Oh well, go back to watching dune...I would have used my gom jabber( watch dune to know what I mean).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lude219:
Only thing worst than benchmark nerds are benchmark nerds who are stupid enough to still be using quadrant software that's over a year old and is not optimized for dualcore or honeycomb.
[Acer Iconia A500] zgigi666999:
Basically i wanted to stream movie from my PC to my iconia a500 and then watch them on my TV is that possible ? if not any other tablet that can do that like asus transformer. Thank you
[Acer Iconia A500] Pogue Moran:
I currently use either Skifta or imediashare combined with moboplayer. As long as you share out a directory with files on your PC over the network you should be able to see and access the files. The A500 is DLNA compatible. It is one of the reasons I purchased it as I saw the xoom was certified.
[Acer Iconia A500] zgigi666999:
thanks for the info
[HD2 General] Xura08:
(T-Mo, American HD2) - Running Hyperdroid, HSPL (Idk what version), and Magldr 1.13, not sure what Radio.

It started out one or two freezes during operating use. I flashed to a new build and it is lightening fast. No overclocking, but there is a CPU throttler. It isn't set to pass 995 MHZ, though.

The problem is that it seems to always freeze when it gets hot (warm actually). I know that's normal but It seems lately the summer heat (even a little bit) will usually cause the phone to freeze. It isn't always the heat to blame, sometimes when playing legitimate games the phone will freeze, and it's not even hot. Same with listening to music. Also, running Edge (no 3G in this area apparently..) will cause it to freeze.

Now, here's the strange part. Only once or twice have I been able to do a soft reset/battery pull and have the phone start back up without freezing. It always seems to freeze on magldr after the "go go go!". Sometimes it will only display the header at the top and nothing. Sometimes it will vibrate 7 times on magldr with only the header displayed and then freeze. It only vibrates when it gets really hot. Often, it will make it to the Android home screen.. And then freeze when you try and do something. I do have that many apps running in the backround, nothing heavy either.

Is the phone bad? Or... Going bad? I'm going to try reflashing everything, going to a stock radio (which I've had updated for a while and never had a problem), and starting with a new android build, oh, and possibly formatting the sd card clean.

If anyone has any suggestions/input.. Let me know please. It's getting quite frustrating!!

Also, this is a nand build...
[HD2 General] johnerz:
I recommend a clean flash without any cpu overclocking app - these just add power consumption and more heat - so format your sd card, task 29 the phone, add cwm clear out the cache on the phone flash a recent 50 radio then a clean rom

time will tell if its a hardware issue
[HD2 General] Xura08:
That's what I was thinking about doing.. Just flashing EVERYTHING and starting fresh. I'm doing that right now, I'll post back here in a few days and see if anything helps..

Just out of curiosity, do you have any favorite NAND android builds? I always have the hardest time picking one out..

Ok, Update... I can't even get HSPL mode into USB. It's stuck in serial. I couldn't get the phone to go into usb storage mode before, either.... Even on different computers.

Nvm.. It was the usb cable!

OK.. Update #2. I'm trying to send over the ROM once I mount the SD card thru magldr. It freezes.. Every... Single.. Time.. I'm trying a second SD card now..

Update #3.. Looks like the digitizer just went out!! Great....

[Vibrant General] helikido:
Im lookibg forward to download cm7 but im concerned about the batery life? Is it good?
[Vibrant General] TheSneakerWhore:
It isn't good.
[Vibrant General] Sdobron:

[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
It's great.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
well i need something similar to by winning qhen it comes to battery so gingerbread wobt do for now :/
[Vibrant General] bigtom624:
I'm getting about 20 hrs with moderate to heavy use with the last 2 updates.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
wow, looks good... :D

i think i need to reconsider :eek:
[Vibrant General] meddmaxx:
The mute unmute thing that bothering so much
[Vibrant General] helikido:
well i geard cm7 has some sound issues so......
[Vibrant General] iynfynity:
the only problem is the mute/unmute and GPS. Battery drain has been fixed a long time ago.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
ohhh lol, so there isn't any sound issues? besides the toggle thingy?
[Vibrant General] Sdobron:
Wait for it. It is definitely not daily driver yet.
[Vibrant General] helikido:
ill do just that ;)
[Vibrant General] SamVib:
I've been using it for a daily driver for about one month now. I consider it stable enough as a daily driver as do many other people do.
[Vibrant General] richan90:
The only annoying thing is mute/unmute. But it annoys my friends more than me because they start off saying "hello???" and then I remember to do it :D
[Vibrant General] carlosmann22:
The mute/unmute thing isn't much of an issue to me. Its only happened to me once. The only thing that bothers me is GPS but other than that its a good daily driver. Also one of the things that I really like about it is the T-Mobile theme engine. It makes switching themes a breeze. Being able to watch Netflix on my phone is great as well.
[Vibrant General] gatorbob:
Never had the mute/unmute problem personally. Overall very happy with CM7
[Vibrant General] mojo6911:
It was pretty bad for me.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
GPS, Toggle.

That's it. Camera's also not "the best" currently but it's very usable. You can also get a third party app camera.
[Vibrant General] gamikzone:
the battery life isnt the best but its still pretty good :D
[Vibrant General] xriderx66:

It has better battery life than i've ever had on CM7!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] grainysand:
Got myself a new Transformer. Unboxed. Looks gorgeous, but wait... the two bits that make up the wall charger don't seem to, you know, slot in? It's very loose, and when plugged in doesn't do squat all. No charge. Am I being an idiot and not fitting one piece to the other right, or do I go back to the shop to get a replacement? :/
[Eee Pad Transformer General] StirCwazy:
It snaps together, and when I got mine it was a pretty snug fit. So you may have to apply a little force, but it does snap together.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grainysand:
Right, the problem is that however much force I apply, the thing doesn't want to snap in. I've been googling like mad to see if anyone else has this problem and did find this one chap with the same trouble; he ended up having to ask the shop to swap it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tenbeau:
When I got mine it was already together
[Eee Pad Transformer General] meatlocker:
I had to press with what I would deem as an 'unreasonable' amount of force to get them to snap together. Just FYI.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grainysand:
Lucky you. Sigh.

I've even tried to charge with my Samsung Tab's wall adapter. No goddamn luck. Fail, ASUS, fail.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dcmtnbkr:
Can you take a pic?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grainysand:
I was going to upload the pics, but I followed advice given in another thread and--using enough force I thought I was about to break them--bent the prongs outward. Voila: it now snaps in and charges. Still a bit of a fail on ASUS for not shipping the two pieces already joined, or better yet make the wall adapter a one-piece affair. Ah well!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akashhhhh:
This happens to everyone. You really need to FORCE it. There's no particular technique that worked for me, just slide and apply a lot of pressure...you only need to do it once, thankfully.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] neok44:
yeah the amount of force required to put that thing together is insane. after about 5 minutes i grabbed something heavy and just started pounding the thing to death with it until it clicked in lol
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nebrando:
That is the one area of the transformer that has disappointed me so far, the charging systems. I didn't understand why the unit wasn't assembled in the box... why I can't charge via usb...and why the cable is so short.

Other than those gripes, I love this thing!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dfin13:
*giggles childishly*
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lehoule:
Seriously the cable length is ridiculous
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grainysand:
Heh, I wedged a coin between the prongs to bend them a bit. Thanks everyone for the suggestions, though.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab's cable is also stupidly short. A trend, I guess?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ryan stewart:
Mine took some force but it wasnt like i had to stand on a table to make it work.

I could see pre-joined but not a one piece affair. I like that its modular because that means you could get plug adapters that could make it fit any country you move to. This is how it should be with mobile devices.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dfin13:
Apparently so is the Iconia's cable. Very strange, as if they expect us to build a little charging stand next to an outlet just for these Android tablets. Somewhat easily solved with a USB 3.0 extension cable, but it's an ugly solution (at least for me, my extension is blue).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbpaddler:
not assembled because it's modular and different countries have different adapters. They are wrapped separately and the only variable in the box.

Also, the oem ipad adapter should provide plenty of oomph to charge and comes with a long cord from outlet to charging unit. Again, not as nice and neat as a normal two piece charger and cable, but neither as the add one. Plus, the apple one is modular too and can take a regular one piece like the one on the asus if you don't need the extension cable or if someone comes out with a longer stock cable.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] KnightCrusader:
Weird, mine came already assembled from Best Buy.

I do remember my GTablet came with the adapter apart, but that was easy to put together.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
Hell I didn't even know it was in 2 peices, got mine yesterday from Newegg and it was already together. Yes the cable length is a joke but I heard about that earlier this week and ordered a 6 ft USB3 cable extension from monoprice for like $4 and it got here today and using it now to charge mine and it's working fine, highly recommended!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mutnat:
Yeah mine was pre-assembled, got mine Monday of this week (and it was brand new stock). Maybe they're doing that on the newer units. I have no idea how I'd ever get it apart if I needed to, I tried and the two pieces are very tightly attached.

The cable... yes the cable is crazy-short. So if you want to use a USB extension, it has to be a USB 3.0 one?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] strikethreeout:
Yes, maybe they finally learned!

Or you got a refurbished one...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jerrykur:
I think the later ones are coming pre-assembled because of this question. Mine was pre-assembled and I never knew it was actually 2 pieces until I read the manual.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] veilside959:
I got the one with the 2 piece. It just takes a bit of force to put it together...

Other than that, its good. Haven't been able to take it apart yet.. lol
[Defy General] kdm212:
ok guys so i just picked up a brand new defy. got it home tried to run z4root and it just would not work. so i decided to just use super one click. did that no problem.

i then went ahead and used the 2nd init. still no issues. then when i was ready to flash i got stuck. cant load into bootloader or anything. im afraid the battery may be close to dead but im unsure.

currently all i can do is see the m logo. thats it. cant seem to get into recovery.

i also tried rsdlite but i cant sem to find the right files cause they all have the wrong extensions.

please help. i have no problem with buying someone a beer!!!
[Defy General] GoldenStateTy:
1. Boot the phone into stock recovery by holding power and volume down at the same time, press both volume buttons when it boots and go to factory reset/cache, run that.

2. Reboot into bootloader, by pressing power and volume up, plug into your PC.

3. Download the latest version of RSD Lite, and download a 2.2.1 SBF of your choice. You'll need to unzip the sbf file from the .gz using a .zip program, I use WinRAR.

4. Open RSD Lite, choose the sbf file, make sure the phone is connected in BOOTLOADER mode (step 2)

5. Run RSD Lite, wait until is says "PASS" In the dialogue box.

6. Enjoy!
[Defy General] kdm212:
ok so i got it back to the bootloader that you mention. however its flashing battery low cannot flash. or something like that. now what...
[Defy General] nepotu:
1st of all you if the blue led does not lit then you should try to go to stock recovery (start your phone using vol down + power, then press the lower right corner of the screen when the android appears with an exclamation mark - on Eclair- / press both Vol Up+ Vol Down -on Froyo -). Then you can start your phone into bootloader and flash the SBF again.

PS: older 2nd init versions get stuck on boot if the USB debugging is ON and the battery must be taken out to restart your phone.

EDIT: wow...how many replays have you received while I was typing mine :) Good luck and keep us posted!
[Defy General] GoldenStateTy:
If it says battery low, cannot flash, simply charge the battery for a bit, and then retry
[Defy General] kdm212:
how can i charge the battery? i have no lights blue or white...
[Defy General] GoldenStateTy:
I'm not 100% positive about this, but if the phone is off, and not bootable, I think plugging it in still charges it. Anyone know?
[Defy General] kdm212:
ok i just went to radioshack and bought a stand alone universal battery charger. im guessing if i give to 30-45 min that should be enough to try this process. any other tips/tricks in the meantime? im wondering where i went wrong. also what is the best file (link if possible) to use? lastly what will it take to get back to usa tmobile rom and i guess start over?
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
Since you are in the US use this sbf http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt...1028.0R_JORDANTMO_P022_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz with RSD lite. Use this version of RSD lite 5.3.1 and Motorola drivers http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=609901&d=1306603535.

ALWAYS go into recovery and wipe first before entering bootloader and flashing sbf

The sbf I linked above is the stock eclair 3.6.360 for the US

Good luck if you need help just ask we are all here to help! You can PM me as well
[Defy General] GoldenStateTy:
Thanks for sending him those links.

Good luck, and as said before, if you need anything just ask, we are all here to help!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kentoe:
Would it be better if we had split the forums into 10.1 I/O LE and 10.1v along with the new ones coming out? It seems as though the development for it along with a few features seems to be splitting them in different posts throughout the forum. They are almost similar but at the same time it seems that they aren't. Apparently we have multiple versions of them coming out and this seems to be the line-up after their release.

10.1v (Original/First)

10.1 I/O LE (Given at I/O) 32gb wifi

Coming out:

10.1 Wifi 16gb

10.1 Wifi 32gb

10.1 4G LTE 16gb

10.1 4G LTE 32gb

Is this going to make the forums extremely complicated after all these releases?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] cosimoss:
Hardly anyone posts about the 10.1v. Apart from 4G and memory all the 10.1s are the same. All share the same software so there is little point in splitting up the forum. Probably best have another look when the 8.9s come along.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tissotti:
10.1v market is so small that i don't think there's need for that. Most of us Europeans are getting 10.1 after all.

When 10.1 hits i don't think people will be even able to spot 10.1v threads.

Though you are right with the different version there will be certainly some confusion, just starting from the wifi version not having microsd from people who have not followed 10.1 so closely, but i don't think there's much we can do or really should do about it.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] kentoe:
Yeah this is the difficult part.

Another thing that would be difficult is this. 10.1 LE has 3.0 vanilla honeycomb and soon to be 3.1. The upcoming 10.1 tabs will have 3.1 with touchwiz which will also making things confusing >_<

Take your ROM zip and open it with WinRAR or 7zip, navigate to system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/

You will find a file in there called statusbar_background.9.png

That is your status bar, color it black and stick it back into the ROM zip and reflash the ROM.

Doesn't get much easier than that...
