I was to hesitant for partitioning earleir, but since I create a swap and ext partition

my phone runs super smooth,

So all those who have not yet done it, please go ahead and enjoy the fastest froyo ever.

Backup your SD CARD data to PC before partitioning, else all data would be gone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poch_1421:
i'm on my KF1 stock rom, and i want to experiment on different roms.

1) are all custom roms (e.g lite'ning, cognition, darky) flashable using CWM? (i got my CWM from flashing the mirage kernel). or i can use odin anytime if i want to flash them thru the computer?

2) i searched for the forums for my stock rom, and i found a link:

http://www.multiupload.com/U95BI5QVDL

it's in an .exe format. is that flashable too thru CWM, or i have to use Odin to flash it back if ever i want to revert back to my stock rom? isn't flashble stuff in .tar or .md5 format?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
The one you found is correct and it has to be extracted from .exe format via Winrar/7Zip. Then you will get .tar file which you could flash via Odin.

And I think you can flash any Custom ROM via Odin over any ROM.

Regards.

Hi all,

I did the update to the new 2.3 gingerbread version today but how to root this version?

Unrevoked doesn't work for me and downgrading to 2.2 rom doesn't work too.

Any ideas? :confused:

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
As stated above, I'm curious what the answers will be.

We obviously can't define "heavy use", but I think everybody gets the point :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
I'd like to ask the 7-8 guys how they do it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denverseven:
I use auto brightness.

Also, when I got the TF I did the whole break-in thing. It was in the manual.

Now, if you want to get better life you can reset your lithium ion battery. Use it till its below 5%, maybe even go to 0%, then charge it to 100%.

Do this atleast twice back to back. You should see your life grow.

Also, never over charge it, and never leave it charging at night. Even though some people will tell you it 'stops' charging once it hits 100%, it actually goes to trickle, and trickle or not, its still over charging it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Thanks for the answer,

I unfortunately don't have the manual with me, but true, I just got the tab yesterday. So do you think in time it will improve? What is that break thing you mentioned?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ellingsoc:
Mine has also got better only thing that kills the battery is playing Galaxy on fire 2 other than that i watched two 2 hour long movies and still had 40 % left
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DilloDroid:
Manual says "to prolong battery life fully charge the battery for up to 8 hours when using the Eee pad for the first time and whenever the battery is fully depleted" Often wonder where you get these post that say don't leave it charging for more than 2 hours.

Auto brightness is really dim on my old eyes

BTW I have a dock and get a lot more than 7 or 8 with it ...very close to the 15 or so they say ..it is according to what your doing...if your playing games, watching flash or movies your mileage will vary:D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdfuogh:
Same here, I usually just watch movies, (occasionally getting distracted by some tower defense game), but apparently my overall usage is due to the screen brightness. I had it on autoadjust for a while in the beginning (lasted like 8 hours) but then I don't like (is there an adjust option for autoadjust? it'd be a lot better if it made it just 10% brighter than it usually sets it..) the autoadjust, so now I usually have it on like 60-100% brightness and I still get 6-7 hours on it. Then i just dock it for another couple of hours. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soniboy84:
Hm... too bad I like bright screens :)

So maybe that's the reason mine only lasts 3-4 hours :S

We'll see later on, maybe it will improve!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan stewart:
Wow. I have mine cranked and it lasts well over that. Closer to 6 with consistent video watching.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] republicano:
i mostly use mine to browse online and music etc,i get around 9 hours with auto brightness

*added*

i used systempanel to monitor when i sleep to check usage,its between 1~3 percent for the cpu, battery life stays flat lined. cpu activity averages 30% while device is at 100%. i use advance task killer and juice defender and disable connections and sync etc.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtsfrost:
well one thing for sure, my mifi died before my transformer died, so i roughly say 6 hours ++. when in music, it saves a lot of battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] denverseven:
2 hours is silly. Mine takes at least 2.5 to charge to 100%. I'm not sure where you've read that, but don't believe it! lol.

Li-ion batteries are great because they are extremely flexible and charging them like 5 times a day isn't a bad thing like it would be with an older technology.

But they are still susceptible to overcharge issues because they generate heat when charging, and that heat changes the composition of the battery, which makes it last less and less over time. That's why li-ions hold roughly 50% of their charge after 1.5 years of use.

And that's why one shouldn't overcharge it.

about 6~7 on stock..just recently tried prime 1.7 so will check for any changes :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dyskmaster:
Does Netflix count as heavy usage? if so then I get about 8 hours :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Narog:
I use mine to browse and to remote desktop to my PC. Sometimes i use gchat and other times play a game or two. I get around 7-8 hours from the eee pad only. With the docking i get much more.

I use auto brightness, and wireless off when screen is off. This way i can leave my tf up and running all night and is ready to be used at any time. The main power consumption are the screen and the wireless on my usage profile. Both together consume more that 70% of my battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhamma110:
Is it possible to switch off the wifi automatically when the screen goes off?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thosor:
Yes, of course. Go to wifi-properties, then choose extended (on German: "Erweitert") at the top right and there you can choose your setting.

(I've got a german TF - there it is "WLAN-Einstellungen"->"Erweitert")

With auto-brightness and wlan-off on screen-off 9 hours is no problem.

Great Tablet :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bboyle:
I run Clemsons V4 Final, no dock and have the screen timeout set at 30 minutes. I didnt pay attention to the recommended battery stuff in the manual. And usually leave mine on the charger all night to be sure I start the day at 100%. I use my TF all day for work, taking notes, surfing and so on. I generally get home with 40%, if I dont play Angry Birds. I have played just music for 8.5 hours continuous with a 15% drop in battery.

Not iPad performance but still a keeper.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wikid24:
I put 6 hours of HEAVY use, but I usually get a full day's usage out of it since I keep my pad tethered to my charger at my desk all day at work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedrhythm:
tried the break-in charging thing (drain to 0% then charge it for 8-9 hours). My battery life changed drastically. Did it only once but ill charge it like that again when it depletes to 0%. It running now on its 3rd day with minimal to moderate use (28% as I am writing this). Will post battery drain per hour once done with the 2nd charging

[23/8/11] New Boot Animation Added
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] nobleskill:
Commendable attitude/stance in my humble opinion.

Thank-you for sharing your work mate.

Kudos for going against the grain, it should be mentioned, on the usual "here do this for me now" attitude unfortunately so prevalent in an ever growing generation filled with discontent and a disturbing sense of entitlement and over all superior and honestly i think contemptuous snear towards us that tinker and learn and enjoy doing so. I personally wouldn't see the fun in hassling another dev to achieve something I can do/learn myself... its just more satisfying to make your boat for fishing or to help someone make a fishing boat/net for themselves ... as apposed to a) giving your fish away so they can do naught or b) giving them the boat you made to catch aforementioned (tasty) aquatic creatures... or something like that.

B-)

Oh and lovely animations too. Well done that man!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jnad32:
So I was just wondering what is the overall feeling about this tablet? I'm thinking about getting it and i was just wondering if everyone likes it or if its 50/50 or what?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Divinedark:
I've owned the Galaxy Tab 10.1, Acer Iconia, Motorola Xoom, and the Transformer. I can say that the Transformer is the best tablet for the money on the market. It's not as sexy as the Galaxy, but it's more functional, far more flexible, and a hell of a lot cheaper.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rilot:
Always hard to get objective views on a product specific forum.

I'm in a love/hate relationship with it at the moment. I love the form factor and the functionality. I hate the lack of tablet optimized apps/games and the awful build quality.

To me, it feels like a beta product. This isn't a bad thing per-se as I like to tinker.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Steve182:
I like mine a lot, and its definatley the best bang for your buck Honeycomb tablet out there right now. Although I do wish it had the form factor / looks of the Galaxy 10.1, the HDMI out and Micro SD card slot are oh so nice to have, especially for $100 less :)

The build quality and lightbleed issues are the only downsides to the tablet in my opinion. I got one with a few creaks in the back and some light bleed, but I just look past it. Its not enough for me to sell or go through ASUS to replace it. Still works great for me. Also, not all of the tablets have this, and Im hoping the newer builds have been fixed.

If your thinking about getting one, I would definatley consider it. Great tablet and a great price right now.

Other big plus is that Asus is really quick at getting the Honeycomb updates out. We've got Honeycomb 3.2 already which is great.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SirSid:
I definitely feel like im a beta tester, but I dont really consider it a bad thing. I enjoy using new equipment and working out kinks. Just wish i didnt have to pay so much for it :p . That being said, a lot of the kinks are worked out now from my experience.

Keyboard lag is gone. Havnt had a sleep of death since the first update. Everythings running a lot smoother with the last firmware update.

Its replaced my laptop in class more or less completely. I use evernote and ezpdf to take notes and its wonderful.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jnad32:
do you use any of the attachments?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Aymara:
I got a Transformer and didn't regret, that I bought it. I got it without dock, because I only wanted a nice tablet ... for everything else I have an i7 notebook with 6 GB RAM.

If I can recommend it? Maybe ... depends on what you want to do with it.

Regarding quality control ... it's the fortune of the early adopter nowadays to be a beta tester. Example: I also got me a Galaxy S2 and though I'm very happy with it, the S2 forum here at XDA is full of complaints about QC.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ryan stewart:
The keyboard is the big attachment and its really the selling point of the tablet. If you anticipate ever using it then the TF is the way to go, if you dont anticipate ever using it then you could be happy with the Samsung, albeit with no SD card and costing a lot more.

The TF has a great screen, its flexible and its cheap. Its not built as well as an ipad (or the other android tablets) but I havent had any functional issues with its built, its not like its breaking on me. Its just you can feel the difference in the "tightness" between the two.

Being said I ended up buying a second for the girlfriend, tired of her constantly using mine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tonyz3:
I got mine in the first batch to come out- from TD. I have had no real issues accept a tiny light bleed- build quality is great for mine. no creaking etc.

It has done everything i ask of it and thrown at it. I use mine for about 70% work related with notes at meeting, signatures on contracts, email, polaris app etc. Even skype calling..

Constantly listening to music watching movies etc. Never had any issues with Battery usage.

I think it has gotten better with each update. Yes little bugs here and there after an update ut usually fixed or have work around within 24 hours. That stuff doesnt bother me.

I never got the keyboard because i felt it was an option that i would never really use so i invested in a nice case- ( PDAIR ) I love the concept of the keyboard but just wasn;t going to use itand did no need the extra bulk.

For me never needed to root it yet (maybe down the road ) but for now it is great as stock.

Last thing i will say is there have been alot of new choices out since i have bought it... yes they might have had a thing or 2 that the TF did not have but i never have second guessed my choice.

Good luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sazfar13:
Well you get 16hrs of battery life with the dock. No other tablet has this kind of a feature at this price point.

The screen quality and responsiveness is in the top quartile of tablets released so far.

I am pretty happy with my purchase. 10x better build quality than the Archos 101 I purchased earlier!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tksc23:
I absolutely love my TF, probably best 399$ I have ever spent on gadget, mine also comes with some light bleed, other than that, build quality is great. Have 2 Ipad2 in the house and they both have worst light bleed.

Would I suggest this tablet to a friend over other Android tablet? Yes, best tablet in the market IMO.

Over an Ipad2? Probably not unless someone familiar with Android and a geek just like me... :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jnad32:
So my question to you is my boss has an ipad that we use for our invoices and paper work to get people to sign off on pdf files and what not. Does android have an app that lets you do that? And overall how good is it for work?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] turbulent28:
Enjoy my tablet a great deal. I actually use it more than i thought i would. Im constantly looking for new apps that will make this into my swiss army knife.

I use splashtop a lot, and now added a Wake on Lan app which now has got me the bright idea to go out and purchase a home server...lol

build quality is definitely not the greatest. Personally, i dont think it compares to the newer tablets coming out. (build)

Dont own the keyboard. Im waiting for a good deal down the road when it drop to around $100. by then, i figure, ill give the TF to my wife (with a keyboard), and ill jump on to the newest tablet. (maybe TF2)

Im a first time android/tablet buyer and user, so i came with no expectations..

Ill know what to look for in my next purchase though.

(so, i guess im a beta tester):)

Love mine, I'm confident I made the right choice. £400 for a tablet-only device is not a wise spend. £400 for a tablet AND a netbook IS thou...

[Eee Pad Transformer General] CrazyPeter:
I'd be very surprised if there is any app that iPad can do, that Android can't, as because of Android's open and less restrictive nature, you won't find missing apps, because "Apple don't like it, or Apple can't make money from it, or it cuts into Apple's buisness".
