[General Questions and Answers] solidkevin:
So when I first got the GSII I thought it was awesome! But 2 things quickly came to fruition.

1.The lightness was great at first but now its almost as a hassle for me, its TOO light, its like I cant even grab it properly like I did with my IP4, im constantly having trouble handling it and it just feels SO delicate! As if its gonna break if I do something wrong or drop it, its too thin for me, that's why Im having trouble holding it at times.

2.Android I have used before and very much enjoyed it but I dunno what happened to me that now its just too much stuff going on for me, with the IP4, it was simple and right to the point, in a way I appreciate all the extra little things that Android bring but I just dont care too much either, surprising cause im a techie. I dunno if its cause I am used to the IP for so long but it just seems like I have to go through more steps to do things that I would only have to do 1 or 2 on IOS. I always get this feeling of cluttered and an unorganized feel on Android while on IOS it just feels simple and straight to the point and organised. I tried WP7 at launch as well and I was super impressed by its UI, smoothness, how everything was so simple and easy to get to/use, frankly I just dont care about customizing and all that, I just want a quick fast and easy experience.

Now dont get me wrong a big problem I had with Android was how it would lag, freeze and sometimes feel like its in a beta stage, I was curious how the DualCore and 1gb ram would make a difference and wow! Im very impressed here! I havent had a single lag, its so smooth and just runs any and everything with absolute ease! This is how I wanted android to be!!

Another thing is the screen, I had 480x800 phones before as well as SuperAmoled and very much enjoyed them, so I was very excited to see the SuperAmoledPlus Display, too my surprise I wasn't that impressed tbh, the blacks are incredible, the contrast honestly seems good but not what I expected, the IP4 seems on par even brighter in some places, but the biggest thing for me is the pixels, since I had 480x800 before and thought it was great, I didn't think it was gonna be a huge difference but wow it is, the retnia display is MUCH better with text. Theres definitely a difference.

All in all Im not sure what to do now, I think I have a beast of a phone in my hands and it IS good but im not satisfied in certain aspects and it seems the months I spent with IOS really took a hold of me, I find myself trying to do little gestures I did in IOS. Theres the IP5 coming but who knows how much that will be and my contract is not up till next year. I cant find a good case for my life on the GS2 while IP4 has several.

Personally I think WP7 is awesome! But the lack of apps and certain things I need is really pushing me away from it. Im not gonna lie sometimes I get annoyed with Apples restrictions and hate itunes but beyond that I very much enjoy it.
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
I get where you're coming from. Sometimes all you want is simplicity and ease of use. It's a shame the IOS platform is so restrictive but there it is; everything has it's flaws.

I love Android but sometimes it's a PITA having so much choice. I can never settle on a Homescreen i like :D
[General Questions and Answers] pudgybunnyBry:
To me it seems like Android can be either as simple or complicated as you like. If you like to keep things simple and clean you can, or you can customize to no end. I like having those options.

You. Will. Obey. XDA Premium
[General Questions and Answers] speeed_demon47:
It's all actually a matter of taste!

Someone like you (as I understand) likes both ease of use (provided by IOS and WP) and doesn't care much for customization.

Well,my advice would be to wait till next jan or so.

By that time WP Mango will have many amazing apps and it's even better than IOS (anything is better that IOS,or at least that's what I think).

But,You really want to give android a chance.

Because,simply put,android is by far the best operating system out there,large development community,no restrictions,provides a great deal of choices,it's great.

But again,it's just a matter of different tastes.

So,you don't want an Iphone 5,WP Mango is a lot much better than IOS 5,and you should really give android a chance to show you what it's got.

It's always hard to switch from one thing to another,you just need some getting used to it!!
[General Questions and Answers] cluckkillerb:
Like others have said, Android wins in my book because of how customizable it is.

As for the GS2 feeling light, I hear ya, I had a GS1 and as functional as it was, it still felt like a toy. I've since upgraded to an HTC Senstation and absolutely love it, although it's slightly on the heavy side haha.
[General Questions and Answers] bleach168:
It's the opposite for me. I do things on Android in 1 or 2 steps that would take 4 or 5 in iOS.
[General Questions and Answers] ferarij:
I agree,I think Android is easy to use.

Ok so I was having several issues post OTA to 2.3.4 (rooted) so I figured what the heck time to try a Custom ROM. Now I am stuck at the Moto Dual Core Screen with Unlocked in the upper left.

Here's how I got here:

1. Installed Pudding

2. Got the Failed to boot 0x100 error

3. Correct error by re-unlocking (solution via SEARCH)

4. Phone came up fine with Blur Setup.

5. Installed SuperUser via preinstall

6. Confirmed SuperUser

7. Install Root Explorer to confirm Root

8. Installed CWM http://xdaforums.com/archive/index.php/t-1138541.html

9. Rebooted and confirmed still working fine.

10. Went into CWM Recovery and followed these setups to install Alien3 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=16156636#post16156636

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Traumrakel:
...are there any news about skype with video?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Lohmatiy:
NOT about VIDEO

Not sure that it's the right topic, but since it's called "Skype ASUS Transformer" I'll try to ask this question.

I'm using Skype to make phone calls abroad, and I use it with a wired headset (earphones with mic). SO, the problem is that I can't make Skype sound any louder (or quieter for that matter) . I can barely hear people I talk to. I tried to move around all sliders in Setting --> Sound --> Volume, but it doesn't affect the other people voice I hear through Skype... The hard buttons for Volume +/- doesn't seem to affect the Skype Volume either.

Anybody encountered this problem? Am I missing something / stupid? Is it normal for all skype users?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] lsu1981:
Same issues - built in speaker/mic have way to low a sound to be usable with Skype. Same issue with bluetooth. Wired headset is usable if in a quiet place but no volume control.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jemarti:
If the sound is too low, and you have a rooted TF, you might want to try Voodoo Control, which is available through the market. Voodoo Control will let you boost the volume level beyond what is allowed via the standard volume controls.

Asus Transformer

Video is work now
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xpgroup:
Yes, video call is working with the new update with the Revolution HD 1.2.2 :-) You'll need to enable video calling because it is disabled by default. Also support automatic rotation!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Hacker_sallu:
Ur correct. The new 2.5 update supports video on Honeycomb Tab Including our Asus Transformer.

Just need to go in settings and enable it.

Whoaa...m soo happy...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] joefloater:
Where is this setting to enable video specifically, thanks in advance!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] xpgroup:

Really working?

For those who said that video is working, do you have your tablet rooted or made special modification.

Just checked today and the video doesn't work on my Asus... The conversation starts but no video. I enabled it in the control panel.

Any idea???
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] metalsides:
Yeah Chris, same with me too. I have a stock Transformer and I can only get audio to work.

But for some reason last night, after trying a couple of times I did get video.

Guess it's still buggy maybe?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] tombolek:
Skype video calls work fine for me ..
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] C Chris:
I tried more and the best I could have is the video working "sometimes" when I made the call and waiting for the other one to answer. But as soon as he answered the video cuts.

It's still buggy definitively

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Reeonimus:
Video calling works well but Audio is very low. I have to speak directly in to the microphone which sucks moving my head away from the camera every two seconds.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] merlin_the_magician:
For those of you with the low Mic level or sound issue - you can use a wired headset to fix this. I know this isn't the best option but it is better than nothing. Most smartphones come with a wired headset these days so I just use one of these to get better sound and volume hopefully they will fix this in either the Skype ap and in the settings for the TF
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] humanporkrind:
I just received an update for Skype yesterday and seems to be working really good on stock. No video or volume issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] kopus:
I'm using Prime the latest Prime rom with my TF101 and have the low sound issue (output). The sound output with skype is just extremely low!

I also have a kernel with voodoo support and it didn't help.

Did anyone find a solution for this issue? I also had the same problem with the stock rom.

EDIT:

Volume Control+ solved my problem!

I saw that I had the volume for calling muted and the ring volume was also on leve 1 or 2.

I know this is an old thread, but I have been using Freemake to rip DVD to any format you want. I was searching trying to figure out best format and found this thread. I did several movies with the "android" preset in Freemake, and they turned out very well. I am currently trying the MP4 preset. It takes a while to convert on my computer (like 4 to 5 hours) but the quality is good for both video and audio. The file sizes for a 3 hour DVD are around 2 to 3 GB.

I use MX Video Player to play the files on the tab. There are lots of options out there, and everyone has their opinions, but it works for me.

[General Questions and Answers] ThejaP:
According to Android market place agreements we cannot have a subscription based model for an app in the store i.e., free for first 1 month and then pay for following months.

It is either free or paid!

What if we develop our own service to track the usage of the app and suggest purchase for further use? Will this violate the Market place terms and conditions?

If yes, how can it be done?

Are there any apps in market place which follow a similar model?

It would of great help to find answers here!

[Verizon Droid Charge] futurejohn:
When I started using my Charge today, I discovered two odd problems with it.

Firstly, when I press the lock button (from a locked state), the screen starts dim and then brightens. When the screen is dim, it is completely unresponsive until it brightens about a second later. This isn't particularly horrible, but it is kind of annoying.

Second, I can't rotate my phone anymore. I've checked the settings and the notification tray and they both have auto rotate enabled. It isn't tied to any app as it happens accross the phone.

Both of these issues started today and I didn't make any big changes to my phone. I'm running GummyCharged 1.9.1 (flashed the full Odin) and I'm planning on just flashing it again if no one has any ideas to fix this. Thanks for any help!
[Verizon Droid Charge] sneakysolidbake:
The dim would appear to be normal as my phone does it as well although I wouldn't say it takes a full second before its responsive.

As for auto rotate, try deleting ms3c_yamaha.cfg from /data/system and reboot.

How I can repair this?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmakiki:
Hey guys, I have been looking around, and I don't think anyone else is having this issue, so I thought I would go ahead and start a topic about it.

Before reading these problems, keep in mind that everything on the phone works like it should normaly, but some of the text in the UI is wierd.

I was wondering if anyone running CM7 latest nightlies (post 2.3.5) and Glitch kernel are having a problem with the phone displaying things out of place. For example, when my phone is charging, the phone says "Charged" instead of what it's percentage is. When the phone's charge is less than 20%, it says that "No SIM card detected", rather than the suggestion to plug my phone in.

Instead of cell phone displaying in the contanct list, it shows the phone numbers as "work fax"

When plugged in to USB, it gives me the USB mode error instead of saying that it is plugged into USB.

Several buttons in the UI have mixed up text, and show things such as "%s%n" at times.

I believe this is not a theme chooser problem, as it persists through different themes.

Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem? Like I said, it's not hindering phone performance, it is just a little annoying.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedy_11:
If your are using the latest nightly, the kernel was updated. And so glitches kernel will break any fixes and mostly likely mess up your phone. Best thing to do is either downgrade or use stock kernel

Alright, I think I might just go with the stock kernel; too bad BLNs arn't on there though...
