Question to all those who have upgraded to 3.2. Were you required to unroot before update? Or, can the update work on rooted sets as well? Please advice as this will be useful info for the rest yet to update to 3.2..thx
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Look in the dev forum for your answer. Basically yes you can but it's in early stages right now.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gpaunescu:
My TF was pure rooted, but no CWM installed. I did successfully upgrade to 3.2.

As was posted in the thread for the previous upgrade 8.4.4.11, seems that only CWM is creating problem.

Anyway I did lost the root.

No Update in Vietnam

Just wondering if anyone has gotten the update in the S.E.. Asia region yet?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deerkiller11:
I just bought my TF and it updated straight to 3.2. The only thing i have had problems with it sometimes takes 2 or 3 times to download something fromthe market. I am going to try a reboot to see if that works.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Harnec:
anyone checked whether they fixed location settings battery drain problem. (turning on location settings increases battery drain dramatically, ss of location on and off comparison)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hotelmode:
Depends on where you bought it. I bought mine in the USA and got the update, even though I'm in Vietnam. It's still a US transformer. If you have a transformer from a different region you will have to wait a little longer to get it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PaulGG:
I thought the UK update was out tomorrow the 2nd, no updates on my UK model yet?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jms_uk:
Not that waiting an extra day matters but @Highland3r, as a UK//WW TF owner(?), how did you get 3.2 so early?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
It wont be a WW unit. On another note... finally the UK mains adapter and extra usb cable are available for pre-order!

As expected at a ridiculous price though. :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nigelw:
Saw that earlier on their Facebook page, had to add a comment that they are charging prices that even Apple would be ashamed of :)

I was a bit annoyed by the exact same thing. I don't currently have the time to investigate fixing the "bug" myself, but I did take a few minutes to disable the "last updated" line. You can find the modified Weather.apk in this thread (root no longer required).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] funky_snowman:
Yes, i thought it was a bug or something. I really hate the new cursor look and behavior. Makes moving around documents and web pages without accidentally zooming in and out rather difficult. Hopefully they make it something we can toggle off.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] hauj0bb:
It takes some getting used to. I've found that I like the new cursor look and behavior quite a bit. When you're two finger scrolling, try to get out of the habit of scrolling with your two fingers spread apart; bunch them as close together without it being uncomfortable, and you wont have the accidental zoom problem.

3.2 more bad then good.

It sounds like this 3.2 update did more bad than good. I'm currently running revolver 1.1.3 with dynamite kernel for a couple of weeks now and absolutely love it. It's fast and stable. Also battery life on dock is about 1% per hour on standby.

From what I'm hearing about 3.2 is that it sucks about 25% in 8 hours while in standby. Plus the bugs when in file manager. Also the cursor seems to be more unliked than liked. + some phone apps are scaled way bigger to where it's no longer usable.

Can you guys give me any reason why I should update to 3.2 other than faster screen rotation?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DilloDroid:
Why would I want an asus widget I've been using beautiful widgets weather and superclocks forever. lets me put them on both my phone and TF although I use the Bob Clock on my phone that was first devloped here
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DilloDroid:
Used to take me a few times to download something from the Market in 3.1 too so don't think it's a 3.2 thing
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
You might not. Plenty of other folks might, because not everybody is you.

Me, I'd like it myself, if it was possible to install without rooting.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
It's been like that ever since the Transformer shipped in the US market, even on 3.0.

It will, however, always install immediately if (when it sits and doesn't start installing) you power the tablet off, then back on again.

I recommend doing so rather than going back and forth between market pages trying to get the app to install. That approach *will* eventually get apps to install too, although sometimes it can take dozens of tries, but it also frequently causes apps to show up as not installed in My Apps when they are installed already, or even not to show up in My Apps at all. (You can still uninstall them through Settings, but the fact they're not showing properly in My Apps suggests that something, somewhere, is getting corrupted to a degree. The power off method never causes this problem, but it's a bit tedious.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ksylvan:
Fix for the 3.2 "Dimmed screen" on multiple-choice actions that used to work

You can install the other file manager, then hold the tablet in portrait orientation the first time, when you try to launch the video player. You should see the "Which app should I use for this?" dialog then and at that point, you can turn the Tablet back to landscape orientation and it will work as expected from this point on.

I had the same issue with having installed Firefox (each link/bookmark would just result in a dim screen; I was holding the tablet in landscape orientation) and also with the "OpenHome 6" launcher replacement application.

Grumble... just did a factory reset/unroot/etc. of 8.4.4.11 WW, and still don't have an update available. Is there any place to download the WW update manually? I couldn't find a link in various forums...

Edit: Hmm, guess it hasn't been pushed to WW yet? Other folks here in Toronto have gotten the update, but I suppose they may have US versions...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] DilloDroid:
I saw on the google android code page site yesterday that this is a bug thats been reported since people began getting the 3.2 update for the Xooms also..... just like in the Xoom forums here. I doubt a fix will be coming till ICS since a small one easily fixed ...for a time...;)

I realized that rooting should not actually be required to remove the "last updated" line from the 3.2 Weather widget. I made the appropriate adjustments to create a modified Weather widget that can coexist with the stock widget and updated my post.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Roach2010:
Already checked that, the build date is later but the ROMS are the same except the usual google books and the new video app not being in the WW update.

Also the wifi driver is slightly newer but I doubt it will make much difference.

3.2 & Bookmark Wiget

3.2 & Bookmark Widget

Just updated to 3.2 here in UK , and no problems except now my bookmarks widget doesn't work , if I select a saved bookmark the screen darkens but nothing happens I can access them by opening my browser and clicking the bookmark icon any suggestions ?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] illithid:
Are you using the dock? The "Complete Action using" bug still exist in this WW build. There should be a dialog box which ask you what app used to do a task, but it doesn't appear and instead the screen only darkens.

Detaching the dock or changing screen orientation will force the dialog box to appear.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AndyNic:
WW update 3.2 in the UK. When loading a file be it a movie or picture the program crashes out iwith movie studio. I am sure being a OS app this will get another update soon. Oh and typing is still laggy in the browser using the keyboard dock.

Just updated mine in Holland this morning, via tethered SGS 1.

Only swiped the home screen to see if there were any speedups...NONE! But my mystery update few weeks ago did speed up things considerable since stock 3.1 though...

Hope MyLibrary can open the Vibe bookstore again...connections are malfunctioning while normal WiFi is working...

Is a factory reset advised for a clean start?

Please Help!

(b4 I start, I have searched everywhere!)

I am running 2.1 eclair.

The issue is that I rooted my device with z4root. I have reset the device. And verified that I am rooted, I can see the superuser app.

The issue is that root explorer doesn't show the mount r/w button. So I did some searching which suggested that I download busy box. Busybox says that I am not rooted! Further, android ins't asking me if I want to allow these apps root access.

What can be done?

try universal androot (or search another method up on google)
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] adinis78:
OK a question for you all, I was looking at the market on my Samsung Galaxy S for Samsung apps and I came accross the Media Hub app, now I currently have Media Hub on my tab but that was taken from the Galaxy S but in order for it to work I needed to change the build.prop.

On the market there were 3 different Media Hub apps one for the Galaxy S, one the T-Mobile tab and one for another phone. I tired to look for it in the market from my tab but Media Hub was not listed. I went back to my Galaxy S to try and download it and try to move it to the tab via the microsd but when I download it it installs on the Galaxy S and there is no way for me to move it.

Has anyone been able to get the official Media Hub for the tab installed on the tab or is there any way to get the app found on the Galaxy S market and install it on the tab?

I hope this request is not too complicated and you guys understand. Your help is very much appreciated.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
Whatever engineer designed the timing of the lights on the capacitive touch keys on the Infuse ought to be fired twice. Once for the design and once for not having an option for an adjustable or always on setting when the screen is on.

There must be a way to make the <OPTION/HOME/PREV/SEARCH> bar to stay lit up. It is driving me absolutely nuts. It goes out in like 2 seconds after I have touched it. No idea why they did that. Stupid stupid stupid stupid design. 9 out of 10 times I hit the wrong key while in an app. It is so annoying.

I am really surprised no DEV has built a longer time option or even an always on option for those keys into a ROM. It's dumb design like that that makes me almost miss my iPhone.

From reading & searching it seems this doesn't bother too many people. I just can't understand why not.

I have tried "KEEP THE LIGHTS ON" app but it is pretty much useless on the Infuse.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
there is an app called "keep the lights on" i havent tried it on the infuse but it works on some of the sgs phones.

edit: sorry didnt read the last line of the first post,

its not that hard to memorize 4 buttons, and if you touch the screen, the buttons or the volume rocker they come on.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bryanb86:
Just tap the screen and they come back on.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dajeoo:
Lol
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
As my OP says: "I have tried "KEEP THE LIGHTS ON" app but it is pretty much useless on the Infuse."

Memorizing them isn't the problem, it's hitting the wrong spot. For some people, with specific physical disabilities, it's not that easy.

Just a simple OPTION would resolve the issue. Still a stupid design. If the screen is lit why shouldn't those keys be lit. The amount of power that backlight draws is probably negligible.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
Not always depending on what is happening on the screen and sometimes tapping the screen causes problems with the app that is running.

re: touchkey lights on

like i said, i missed that you tried keep the lights on, and yeah there is no reason the lights shouldnt be on all the time. its just something to deal with. sorry
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bryanb86:
Is it set on timing or a light sensor? Maybe try ro put something over screen sensor black tape or something.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
it is timing, not sure if iti is in services.jar or framework or the kernel. nobody has ever seemed interested in addressing this outside of the keep the lights on app, not sure why.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:

I hear you. This is one of the few things I don't like about this device. Most of the time it's not an issue, but in low light or darkness it's a bit of a pain trying to locate the right button to press. :confused:
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bassistguy:
"Keep The Lights On" app works fine for me

I just installed the "Keep the Lights On" app, and it works flawlessly. The bottom menu buttons stay on as long as the screen stays on.

Question: When you installed the app, did you add it as a widget, and then enable it? You need root access for this app to work.

I am using Infused 1.5.3, so, not sure if that makes a difference or not.

Edit: Just an FYI, I am using the free version. I would use the pro version, but I'll probably just end up uninstalling this app :).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MisterEdF:
Yes, I installed it as a widget and I do have root access. I am also running Infused 1.53. What kernel are you running? Maybe that is the difference?

It did work for the first few minutes I had it installed than eventually it started getting weird. Sometimes it would work in reverse, most of the time it wouldn't work at all, sometimes it would never shut off (which was OK with me). I contacted the DEV and he said it wasn't compatible with the Infuse and that would be the behavior he would expect.

I think if you use it for a while you'll see what I mean.

Edit: Just uninstalled/reinstalled. First time phone wakes up it works. Once it "sleeps" then wakes up lights NEVER come back on. If I turn widget off/on the same thing recycles. Works once than fails.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] bdbx18:
I've got to agree with the OP. Since we don't have a nice physical home button, it would be nice to get this thing lit up so we can see. I'm always in a dark environment and I keep hitting the 'back' instead of the 'home' key.

While we're at it, I like to know who the genius is that decided the location of the power button. It's almost impossible to push the button without squeezing the volume buttons. If they come out with a Infuse2 with the power button on the top, I'll switch in a second.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
I absolutely love that... It's actually within reach unlike the top. If it's on top you can't unlock with one hand.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] apallohadas:
I have massive hands and I have no problem with the power button.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Synner12:
These sorts of issues (both the OP and the power button placement) are easily avoided if you actually go to a store and play with a phone instead of ordering online.

While I do agree that those two issues could have been handled better, I also understand that we're never going to get a perfect phone. So you live with what you like best.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] DeRock13:
I'm just curious as to the OP's limitations that cause him/her to not be able to use the buttons normally. They insinuate there is a physical reason they can't do so, but honestly I'm at a loss here. Not being a jerk, honestly not sure.

That being said, I have only three issues with the phone.

1.) My hands are used to the Captivate screen so my thumb occasionally hits the "period" when texting instead of a space.

2.) I wish that Swype wouldn't save every single thing I typed in manually. It actually slows me down when I'm typing. Swype also seemed more forgiving on my Captivate if I accidentally moved my thumb the wrong way.

3.) When I go to watch a video (Youtube, Video Player, Netflix), I'll get a message that says "Video not supported" or "there was a problem trying to play this video." Happens when my phone has been on all day. I have to reboot, minimum, once a day.
