the only other asus tablet runs at $1000+, and has poor battery life. win 8 with arm support will be the way to go.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poulsen8r:
6 months from now the transformer will look like a piece of crap compared to what will be out. If you want windows 8 the best option would be to buy a new tablet that has it on there. The best point was made on the previous page which stated porting windows will be considered piracy and therefore banned from the forum. IF Microsoft releases windows 8 ARM as an installer (usb,cd,flash chips, who knows...) then there could be guides on here but NO ROMS as Windows is not FOSS. Then there's the price to consider... Don't get me wrong I would love Windows 8 on my TF but be realistic, it's not gonna happen.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrevankyle:
it wouldn't be piracy if you were able to provide a legitimate proof of purchase.windows requiresaproduct key so if you went to the store and bought the disk then if someone found a way to modify the install process to run on transformer you could enter your product key and it would be perfectly legit. Allot of hard work but legal nonetheless
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legendw2008:
I am 100% there will be no Windows 8 development for Asus transformer at least on xda, and the other thing I am pretty sure about that Asus TF won't be able to run it, seriosly you think that Microsoft will make windows 8 so optimized that it work on "smartphone" processor Tegra 2? Nothing against windows, love it, but I think that tegra 2 processors are not powefull enough to run desktop OS. If there will be anykind of port of windows 8 on TF I would install it right away, but what can you do on it having only 1gig of ram? Check email on glitchy IE(I personaly hate it)? And by the time Windows 8 is going to be released, there will be new TF2. So insted of hoping for port of windows 8 on TF, better start saving money for TF2 or Windows 8 tablet which would give full new windows experience insted of ported one!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikelt89:
Who cares about windows 8, can we boot windows 7 on our TF? as much as I love android 3 it can't be compared to windows.. could we boot it? the TF as duel core cpu while same 10' mini laptops as less powerfull single core..
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Youssefous:
Howdy guys,

So I was wondering if there was any way to implement the long press volume to skip tracks into JT's stock gingerbread. I know there are a few music players out there that do this as a feature but be it because of money or generally not liking thing I was hoping to be able to do this with the stock player. Any advice?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hyphnx:
I'm pretty sure if the screen is off and you have music playing, you can use the volume rocker to skip.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironeagle76:
Installing Cognition has changed alot since I last applied one in December. I never updated it as I thought I bricked my phone the first time I did it lol. It worked I left it alone.

The other night I kept getting a "internal sd card damaged" error upon startup and could not access files. From what I read online my best possible solution was to restore it back to 2.1 eclair and start over. I used the Odin 1.00 tool that designgears linked to a year ago to restore my phone back to factory settings.

Now Im trying to update to Cog 5. I went to step 1 link on his Cog 5 thread. I downloaded the newer Odin, Zimage, Kernalkf1. I put the Zimage file in the PDA slot and click start after the phone was in download mode. I got the fish picture and the phone rebooted. I put the Phone in download mode again and put the Kernal file in the PDA slot clicked start. After it did its thing the phone reboots in a cycle to the white att screen to a scrambled screen full of colors back to the att screen and so on. Im thinking the scrambled screen use to be the image of that fish.

Perhaps I missed a step because its taking for granted that I kept up with all the Cog updates and should of done a step before hand? Was I suppose to restart from 2.1? Can I just root the phone the otherway with the update.zip file then install the kernal with Odin. Perhaps I was suppose to root the phone before hand then follow step 1? I thought Step 1 was a root and GB instructions all in 1? Any sugestions?

I was able to Odin back to 2.1 Eclair again. Do I need to master clear, it always fails when its almost done?

Thanks again!

Thanks all
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
It looks like u didn't use the one click Odin to get on the KF1 firmware.

In Step 1 of the Cognition 5 OP, go to the link and just click on the Download Link. That's all u need from there. This is the one click Odin that gets u on the "leaked" I897UCKF1. The other instructions in that link are for an "optional root", but since ur gonna install the Cog 5 Beta 2 Kernel u don't need this ( it is rooted, etc.). After u have one clicked Odin onto the i897uckf1, just go to Step 2 in the Cog 5 OP and then Step 3.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
Exactly how its on the main thread..... you cant get much simpler than 3 steps....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironeagle76:
OMG, how did I miss that, its even in big block letters! If you only knew how much I get in trouble at home because im told that something is in such and such drawer I I say I dont see it only to have her walkup behind me and get it herself....

Thanks alot cant wait to retry when I get home!

You are right it dont get much simpiler than that! No need to root if im doing cog 5 you say?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prbassplayer:
No because step 2 (flashing Cog kernel) has ClockWorkMod already. So just flash step two (uncheck reboot in odin) and boot up in recovery (Vol Up+down+power) =3
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironeagle76:
Ok, on step two..... that file does go in the PDA box correct? That is what I used. It did its thing. It looks the same as step 1. In the phone info should it say something like cog version yada yada? I also did the volume up/down power to get in the ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.0.5. There was reboot system now and reboot recovery. Reboot recovery just keeps taking me back to Clockworkmod.

Im such a newb.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] hailthethief:
I recently flashed sexton's KG4 with ext-4 working. Ever since then I assumed that my wifi calling was working since it was turned on and I was sending texts perfectly fine. Now when I receive a call, my phone app acts like it force closes and opens up again for another ring and does it again about 4 times per call. These all show up as missed calls, and when I try to call anyone it says Im not on a mobile network. Anyone else having these issues on GB?

Hi, my sgs2 really heats up after 10 min of browsing or playing games .. is anyone else having the same problem if yes does any one know any solutions for it .. any help would be much appreciated ...

It's amazing how electronics get warm when they have billions of dancing electrons flowing through them! Who would have known that electric current would create heat!
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
When I use it intensively, for a couple hours it sure heats up, but not after 10 minutes
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
How do you even state heat up without mentioning the temp?

Have a basic idea, based on an ambient of 30°C,

Charging- 50-55°C,

Charging+ Gaming- 55-60/62°C,

Normal Use for more than an hour with WiFi On- 40-45°C,

Moderate Use for half an hour- 35-40°C,

Standby for half an hour- Below 35°C.

That's just an overall idea I tried to input.

Sent from GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II General] SugarySnack:
This. Give us some temps of normal and when gaming to see if it is abnormal (there are apps on the market that allow you to do this). Chances are, it isn't. The phone has to use more power to run games and processor intensive applications. It getting warmer is normal.
[Galaxy S II General] ph00ny:
when i fap i mean use my hand in a productive manner, it heats up (inside joke from irc chat last night)
[Motorola Triumph] bsharitt:
I know there people who removed the factory screen protector when the Triumph first came out and it helped screen responsiveness. I held off because I wanted to see if there would be any adverse side effects.

I know there have been reports that the screen is gorilla glass, but it seems odd that they would add a factory protector if it was. So those of you that removed the protector, does it seem as durable as gorilla glass? Any scratches?
[Motorola Triumph] Intercepter:
I left mine on and it may have one very minor scratch in it. but I know in my mind I can always take it off and put a new one on and always have a pristine screen underneath. I have no problems with responsiveness other than the processor being busy doing something on occasion keeping the phone from responding but I have never seen a phone that doesn't do that.
[Motorola Triumph] skyau:
I know this is only incidentally related to the topic but I kept my factory screen protector on and the only time I've ever had issues with screen responsiveness is scrolling the stock dock.

Which immediately disappears if I use a different launcher/dock like Launcher Pro or Go Launcher.

So for me the effort/risk of removing it wasn't worth it in my eyes.
[Motorola Triumph] bsharitt:
Same with me mostly. I've had more responsive touch screens, but even with the screen protector, I would say this is well within acceptable limits for me.
[Motorola Triumph] steviee7:
My phone doesn't do that :)
[Motorola Triumph] JWhipple:
I've had much improved responsiveness without the factory screen protector. No side effects . I had crappy responsiveness regardless of launcher with that thing on there... Might as well have used duct tape on the screen, Motorola!

http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/motorola
[Motorola Triumph] Fodoom:
I handed someone my phone to show them how awesome it was, and he was like, "Oh cool," grabs the tab of the protector, and takes it half-way off. Dirt got in there so I had to take it off. Long story short, responsiveness is still on the weak side, but could be attributed to the processor being busy as someone previously posted.
[Motorola Triumph] ceejay83:
there is another screen protector under the tabbed protector
[Motorola Triumph] cutterjohn:
Um, unless I'm completely blind the factory protector doesn't have the pull tab, however the SHIPPING protector did... you were SUPPOSED to remove that one.

As to the factory protector, I'm leaving mine on. Only input lag I have is when I've got the phone heavily loaded down doing something which will happen on occasion, after all it's only a single core... even my Tegra 2 tablet will lag occasionally...
[Motorola Triumph] johnnycsx:
This is a video of removing the screen protector we're talking about.

[Motorola Triumph] hangdogdaddy38:
Don't know if this is a dead horse or not but I just got through removing the cheap plastic screen protector on my and my wife's Triumph. I didn't use a razor blade like is shown on an youtube vid but I just kept working my finger nail along the edge of the glass until the protector started to come up and kept working my nail further under it until I could get a grip on it and start pulling it up. It's not that hard once you get an edge going. I think it made a big improvement on how sharp and colorful the screen is. I think it is more responsive also.
[Motorola Triumph] JWhipple:
I second that - I removed it right after I bought the phone and immediately noticed a big difference.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] altsyst:
Hi,

When you want to perform some scripts at boot-time, there is two possibilities :

- modify init.rc, but it requires to reflashing the rootfs image (modification in / does not hold after a reboot),

- using an android app like script manager, which will load your scripts at java/dalvik platform boot-time.

I've managed to find a way based on activating tf-daemon, which is a script called by the asus/ventana initrc, but disabled at boot-time. Basically, we're re-enabling this daemon by setting the property tf.enable to yes, and then creating a script called tf-daemon and put it in /system/bin. Since this script is called by init.ventana.rc as root, you can put whatever you want inside this script.

I don't know what is the original purpose of this daemon, but probably it's used by the asus team for internal and debugging purpose.

Be aware that in the next firmware update, this possibility could disappear.Let's hope the asus team does not read this post. Or at least they could allow power users to call custom scripts at boot-time.

As a case study, you will find as attachment a script for loading nfs modules at boot-time.

PS: damn, can't upload. Here is a temporary link : http://dl.free.fr/hwTZ0YBq2

Untar the archive, then su, and sh install.sh

At reboot, you should have nfs modules loaded.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hachamacha:
Good find:

I gave this a try just to load a couple of my own modules that work with the kernel I'm using. Works fine -- Thanks, -
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msticninja:
Another method is to make a script and just call it in the init.rc. After a firmware update you only have to add the "exec myscript.sh" line to init.rc. I personally prefer this method because it allows me to control when the script is executed, whereas the tf-daemon method is always executed at the same point(AFAIK). Good research though, always nice to know all the boot calls.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] altsyst:
Modifying the init.rc was my first shot, but the problem is that init.rc lies in ramdisk. So when trying to modify, the modification does not hold

after reboot. So a real modification involves to reflash rootfs with nvflash, too much hassle for me. The method I'm providing is for lazy ones. ;-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zdarkhalo:
nice find, but the link is dead, could you please provide a new link for the script?

also, how do I load nfs module for there is none under /lib/modules, compile the kernel myself?

[General Questions and Answers] a_idoux:
I've been looking buying a tablet for a few months and ive done some research on the matter and what some fair specs on devices are, and ive read good and bad reviews about ebay tablets, and before i buy this one, in the link bellow, I'd like to know what people think about it.

it has a dual camera, capacitive screen, (which means its a glass screen, right?) And it doesnt look like a cheap plastic one-which i originally thought about purchasing for only 200$. However after research, most of the 200$ tablets have plastic screens and.... Ive had plastic touch screen phones, and compared to my htc evo shift, the evo's glass screen is much better. that's my opinion... so this is the product ive been looking at currently.

.... it wont let me post the direct link... so, go to ebay, and this is the item listing "New 9.7" Android 2.3 4GB Cortex-A8 WIFI HDMI M12 Tablet"

sorry for the inconvenience.

I've looked into buying from sites where you get a better price, but have to 'contact the supplier' and ask them questions.... and then after talking to them for 2+ weeks, they say........

"I am not sure if your US customs will hold the package 100%.

But this is such a risk. If US customs pay attention to your package, open the box, then they will maybe.

I tell you this in advance, then it is up to you to choose the risk. If the customs hold the package and you won't get, we could not help any and won't refund you.

You can think about it, if you want to try, then I will check those information you want and send u."

WONDERFUL! so that place is now not an option.

but ebay has some sort of guarantees on their products that they arrive or you get a refund, and that they are as the Lister described. which makes me feel more comfortable in that sense.

any thoughts? Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Robdunc:
Hi, why do you want this particular tablet?

do you have specific requirements for your tablet such as screen size, resolution, cpu speed etc. other than capacitive screen...

Also, do you have price range or are you looking for as chap as possible?

Thanks

RDS
[General Questions and Answers] a_idoux:
I like the capacitive screen, and for me larger is better, 9in and up.

im not good at the rooting process and changing the software and stuff like that.

but close to 1ghz speeds are good with me, and having usb ports are always a plus, also access to micro sd cards, which i think just about all tablets have that,

I like android 2.3.... when i upgraded my phone from 2.2 to 2.3 it became a lot smoother, less freezes, better battery,

the only thing i dont like so much about that tablet is that the battery is 4500mah, but they claim 6-8 hours of use.

Thanks!

In this thread, at the download section.

It says " 4.X is bigger then 2.X so you need at least a 390mb system partition. If you flashed the recovery with 360mb modded file, you have to reflash it again " How do I check the modded file size? and reflash what?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
Hello,

The size speaks of itself. Some Roms (like Sense Roms) have lots of components which requires more space from your Internal Memory (NAND) . And others don't, (like MIUI and CM) . And if you flashed a 400mb Recovery you MAY be able to use a 150mb ROM on it but it's absolutely not recommended as the rom may malfunction. and when you try to use a 150mb recovery with a 400mb size rom it will not install . (even if it did, it will stick on a bootloop) .

You can check the modded size by checking flash.cfg (open with notepad)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] samsamuel:
The quoted size refers to the size system partition that is created, and the system partition must be big enough for the rom you flash.

Yes you can flash a small rom to a large partition with no side effects,,,BUT you lose the extra space. So a 150 Meg rom on a 250meg partition results in 100meg totally wasted. A 250meg rom won't flash to a 150 partition.

If the rom doesn't tell you what size to use, extract the system folder from the ..zip, and see how big it is, (right click-properties) and add a few Meg.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] likewei92:
Yep just choose the size based on what ROM you want to install. You should check the individual ROM threads for instructions. And just btw I found this HD2 toolkit thing very useful. It allows you to repartition to any custom size you want (not only 150, 250 or 400 Mb), among many other things.

file spl_signed.nbh from ROM RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_1.24.401.01_Radio_5.64.09.20_22.42.50.15_Signed_GOLD_RELEASE, and the results radio version is 5.64. 09.13_3a_22.36.50.15U. It works perfectly in my device.

I am still waiting for the new radio version.

Note: based on my experiment: if your device installed hspl with just installing file 'spl_signed.nbh' from stock/branded rom, your spl will be back to stock spl.
