I called the post office, they said all they can do is confirm the address and it's receipt. He said I could open a lost package claim but it will be closed as soon as the person assigned sees that the tracking shows it was delivered.

I am at work right now so can't spend all day calling Asus over and over again but taking half a day and will try this afternoon.

Does anyone have a number to a higher tiered support?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RojasTKD:
Try asking then about in on their Facebook page. I don't have Facebook, but I believe they do.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Underwater Mike:
If you have verification of delivery, that's all you need to provide to Asus. Doesn't matter if someone sat on it, lost it under a pizza box, or whatever. Once it's delivered, it's their problem.

If the Asus support line won't let you escalate, I suggest you post on the Asus Facebook page(s) and perhaps PM kimi_Q on XDA, who seems to be an Asus employee. And, the next time you get a disagreeable Asus tech, ask for a name or at least initials.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ryan stewart:
Are these people even ASUS? I seem to get the vibe that the repair centers, like most, are just contracted "Bubba's Computer Fixin'" just like everything else.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
I called back, a manager told me to wait another week and then they will escalate it. He said the repair facility is backlogged due to the large number of repairs for the dock.

While I believe the last part, the first is complete BS. They should be able to scan it in that day, I understand not fixing it within 24 hours but to still not even acknowledge receipt of the device is absurd.

I posted on their Facebook about the issue. After years of supporting their motherboards and Eee line, this is the last Asus product I will ever buy.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
My dock shipped yesterday after being received in on 8/12 ( 4 days including weekend) Keep checking back on the facebook page as they have been known to delete posts they don't want users to see.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
This dock fiasco is insane. ASUS needed to put out a recall and pay to have these docks returned to them. You send them your dock and they call you a liar and say they never got it? I call in and they say they've never heard of this dock drain issue before, but ask to send rma the dock at my expense. Unbelievable.

All of us with this dock issue need to file a class action lawsuit against ASUS. Are there any lawyers in the house?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jadesse:
That is exactly why I ship anything of value by either UPS or Fedex with signature required. Instead of try to save a few bucks & shipping stuff via the USPS.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SwiftLegend:
If it doesn't turn up in a day or two, go Apple on them and get a lawsuit :P
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Jocelyn:
This and tbh, Fedex ground can even be cheaper than priority sometimes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] turbulent28:
This seems to be the trend with asus..

Too many negative reports about asus already. Theyre on their game when releasing updates, but they need clean up their act with all these screw ups.

Bad tablets, bad docks, returned with damages, lost units...wtf asus?

And before someone gets their panties bunched up..

Yes..yes.. buy an ipad.

:rolleyes:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andrewklau:
I got my complain "escalated to management". Facebook page --> Support --> Escalated support.

Got a response within 24 hours, and they sent me shipping label to have my tab end up at the repair center for the second time!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
Thanks I'll go that route when I get home today
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bob Smith42:
I think ASUS will resolve it if you can talk to the right people. Sometimes the USPS does screw up, so it is one of the two. But, if ASUS has an issue with USPS they should still resolve your RMA and deal with USPS separately.

Otherwise, you have the nuclear option: BBB complaint on both USPS and RMA.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
Just escalated the issue via Facebook.

The BBB is useless as they have no authority other than to wag their finger at the company and I cannot file a complaint with the USPS as they fulfilled their end of the deal by delivering it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
Heard back from someone after the Facebook message who says they are looking into it
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
suing them are what ground?

they never specify that there will be no battery drain,

and the fact is you still do get 16 hours of continuous use as advertised.

you can only sue them if something is false advertised, but unfortunately they never made that claim about how long the machine can be standby for.

Don't get me wrong, from the consumer point of view, I do think they should fix this issue, and fix it quick, but suing them is a bit too much.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
They have openly said that "earlier models" are defective - parts need to be changed on them in order for them to work properly and not die within 24h of being "off". This means there should have been a recall, paid for by ASUS. It's crazy to think that they admit their product has a hardware flaw and then expect customers to pay to return it! I've shipped my tablet to ASUS and sending the dock back would cost me close to 20% of what I paid for the dock! Not acceptable.

A class action lawsuit is appropriate in this case, since no recall was given, yet the device has a hardware defect which was confirmed by the manufacturer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
well that really depends on how you look at defects,

many earlier model have defects and is improved in later production

not every company recall their earlier model just because they improved it in the future

you can't be suing every company just because they don't recall their earlier models.

now if they refused to fix it for you or charge a premium to exchange it for you then it might be appropriate to sue them.

what's with people these days, have to sue for everything....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
Just an update; I heard back again from Asus who says they dock has been located and will be repaired and sent out to me asap.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
good news, guess they recrived it afterall. mine spent 3 days at repair facility (including weekend)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] funnycreature:
kind of on topic

I hope I'm not hijacking the thread by asking how people who were successful started the RMA. So here I go: What is the best way to get the RMA for the keyboard dock rolling?

Thanks all!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
New update, for ****s and giggles I called tonight to check my status and it is still in "accept" mode.

I have emails from escalation support indicating they received it but the RMA number still does not pull up on the website and again their system doesn't show it has been received.

The manager took my information and promised he would give me a call back tonight, I won't hold my breath waiting for it.

Asus has definitely lost me as a future customer, I don't care if their next tablet ****s gold bricks and makes my kid do her homework without a fight.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] decepticon:
My RMA still says the dock never arrived but it came in today in working order. Testing to see if the issue is resolved.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wilykit:
Sounds like sloppy work in the receiving area. Glad you got something back.

[General Questions and Answers] Kinan Eldari:
Hey folks, I have a problem (obviously).

I seem to have a problem that when I play Gamedev story, I sometimes get this freeze of all the software, and all of a sudden my phone turns off completely. I've already tried looking into things like overheating of the battery or the CPU but neither seems to be the problem yet. I can't seem to find anything on this critical error happening with the software I'm running. I have a SE Xperia X10 with 2.3.3 running. So here's my question to you guys: What's going on and how can I fix it?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
Connect it to a computer use logcat (google "adb logcat") to view what the android log prints when your phones freezes.
[General Questions and Answers] Kinan Eldari:
Right. It happened again twice just now (once during gamedev story and once after it rebooted and I just started aLogcat). What should I look for in the log?
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
General errors, stuff out of the ordinary.

Collects some logs when it crashes, post them to pastie.org

and post the links in this thread. i will try to help.
[General Questions and Answers] Kinan Eldari:
here's the log after the most recent crashes (once again during gamedev story and once more after rebooting). I have no idea what the startup lines are for the OS, nor can I seem to find the logged command for starting the game. : (

I feel horribly inept right now...

Anyway, the forum doesn't seem to allow me to post links just yet and I hope this works.

[HD2 General] rubikum:
Hi :)

So I've tried several things the past days and nothing seem to work properly.

I found several threads with same topic, however this is really random crashing.

My EU HD2 is pretty much unusable:

- Sometimes it won't boot, just vibrates constantly 5 times or so

- Loads into MAGLDR, but gets FATAL HIT when attempting to boot.

- Crashes randomly when used, either android or wp7.

I first experienced these issued with NAND android, using skinks clean desire v1.2

Then i reformatted, using task29, installed MAGLDR again, and then wp7 nodo (stable). But the issues kept on going, and now I'm not really sure if it boots. The battery pins look okay to me, and i have tried several different batteries.

Anyone experienced this before, is it gone or is it possible to fix?

all help greatly appreciated!!
[HD2 General] orangekid:
main board is fubar. Warranty or sell for parts
[HD2 General] rubikum:
Too bad, guess ill have it in on warranty then.

Thanks for quick answer!
[HD2 General] orangekid:
np, make sure you flash stock via SD card before you send in for warranty.
[HD2 General] rubikum:
SD card flash didn't work for me so I flashed stock rom and then reset spl.

Phone won't boot now anyway so.. :)
[HD2 General] orangekid:
I would try the fridge flash from SD just to be sure.
[HD2 General] rubikum:
Guess ill try once more then :)

Does the card need to be formatted in order to do so?

When I tried last time i just put the leoimg.nbh onto are the card but nothing happened.
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Format fat32 and make sure the card.is 8gb or less. Also make sure the file is called leoimg.nbh

im sorry my english isn't good
[HD2 General] T-Macgnolia:

[HD2 General] Rick_1995:
I think you should stop pointing random problems on bad blocks.

I understand that these are the symptoms observed by people with high number of bad blocks, but i'm running sense 3 roms with 8 bad blocks and no problem/random freeze/reboots till now.

Also, this guy is not running android/WP7 which are believed to be unable to manage bad blocks (assuming as he posts in HD2 General).
[HD2 General] prince9399:
most probably hardware problem. i've had bad experience about this too. send it for warranty at the end

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jye75:
Interesting thought. But if you're going that route, why not just use a Verizon MiFi unit? No cables needed, and your own wifi hotspot for multiple devices.

[Acer Iconia A500] Greymyst420:
When i try to trasnfer files to my Acer Iconia A500 it says that the disk is Read Only. Is there a way to get it out of Read only mode ? also trying to get this device updated to 3.1 OTA but it says that its up to date at 3.0.1. anyone know what i can do i have the device rooted. also there is no market place when i side load the market place it says i need to add an account and then nothing happens.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Regarding rooting, try reading the bleeping forums for 2 minutes, particularly the sticky in Development.

As for your copying problem, where are you copying TO?

Where did you get this device from? Having no market means it's likely got a Chinese ROM on it...
[Acer Iconia A500] Greymyst420:
To your first comment, if you read this i said I have already ROOTED the device. and as far as no market place i got it here in the US at a US retail store they wont take it back because its been opened :-(. and i am trying to copy videos TO the internal STORAGE. dont assume i didnt read first when i did. this isnt my first time here just first time posting.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
What's the ROM version on it?
[Acer Iconia A500] Greymyst420:
Model Number A500

Android Version 3.0.1

Kernel Version 2.6.36.3

Build Number Acer_A500_1.109.02_PA_DEMO
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
Yeah, there's your problem... That is NOT a release version ROM.

You can either try one of the 3.1 OTA ROMS that are available in the relevant thread in the dev section, or I suggest you take it back as they've sold you a device with a non-retail ROM.

The thread you want is this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113878

And you'll probably want the Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2 ROM, that being the latest US version ROM. You MIGHT need to decrypt the update.zip inside the download file user the Acer Update Decrypter. You can find that here

You don't need to have CWM installed to use those ROMs, btw.

EDIT: Sorry, the ROM link to the Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2 file in that thread is an update, not a full ROM. There are some full ROM's around in other threads for that version though, I just don't have the links handy.

Hello

Could you please help ?

How can i bypass this system partition protection on a rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 ?

Thx
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BelugaHval:
So. I got my 5th android telephone now, Galaxy S2, and i absolutely love it. I have ofcourse, rooted the phone and removed most of the crappy samsung apps as most of them just seem to drain battery.

Its almost the perfect phone for me now. There is however one thing that remains and endless anoyance for me. Was the same with S1.

How on earth do you remove that redicilous lockscreen? Or change it to something else? I dont mean changing the lockscreen picture. Just replacing it with some other lock screen. Like the one that comes with HTC Desire and so on.

Just to be clear. I know how to turn lockscreen of. But i want to CHANGE it. I hate the swipething.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] steini81:
You can try "widget locker" from Market and there is also an app "Agile Lock" that makes the same Lockscreen as its in Sense 3.0 (with the Ring and shortcuts).
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] BelugaHval:
Thanks for the replies!

Didnt know there were lockscreens on the market as i asumed you had to tamper with som root settings or something! And i never bothered to look for them on most of my phones as i were happy with them as they were... So sorry for asking you sour tard @nobnut !!

Thank for your suggestions stein81! :)) As i browsed through your suggestion i actually found one i liked better!

Its called LockMenu .. in case you want to try it .. its free!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ChongoDroid:
Don't usually jump in these, especially when I'm new to the samsung side of xda but I think your the one being a sour tard...

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alien45:
Widget locker and Agile lock(currently using) are the best alternatives to stock lockscreen. But if you like to read your facebook n rss feeds then you might want tui try out the Flyscreen which is also free. There are other apprentices as well. But these are the best ones to my concern.

Hey,I got a t-mobile HD2 off amazon a new one. It's locked to T-mobile.How can i unlock it to work with other network's?I know i shud type a unlock code or whtever by paying some amount...but i am very tight on budget.. How can i unlock it for free?
[HD2 General] orangekid:
If you are not on tmobile, ask someone on these forums who is to get an unlock code for you. You just have to give them your IMEI and wait for 24-48 hours.

I would do it for you but I only get one unlock every 90 days and I recently did one.
[HD2 General] akhil_kumar60:
oh! I shud still get the phone.....estimated delivery date is august 24th. I heard there is something like we need to flash a SSPL and then it would be unlocked! I will give the IMEI as soon as i receive my phone! Please help me!!
[HD2 General] Stein1415:
:) thanks :-D
[HD2 General] Stein1415:

[HD2 General] orangekid:
SPL has NOTHING to do with carrier unlocking. You can do it stock if you want. Flash a different SPL if you want a custom ROM, WP7, or Android (without loading WM first).

carrier unlocking is done only by putting in a foreign SIM, then putting in the unlock code generated by tmobile.
[HD2 General] akhil_kumar60:
SO now could you explain me clearly wht should i do to unlock it?? Can i just flash another SPL and then flash android and then i twill be unlocked???
[HD2 General] orangekid:
Like I said, carrier unlocking has NOTHING to do with your SPL or which OS you have flashed. It is done with the unlock code generated by T-Mobile. They will do it for free for anyone who has an account with them and has not unlocked a device for 90 days or more (which is why I can't help out).

I'm sure someone in these forums would be willing to help you out.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mitch3:
I did a back up of Synergy RLS1 then went to MIUI and decided to go back to Synergy but every time I try it gets stuck on the white HTC EVO screen. I tried going to Fresh then to Synergy but the same thing happened.

Could it be that the rom just has a lot to restore and takes a long time? The most I waited was like 15 minutes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mitch3:
please halp :o
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
Mitch, how long are you waiting at the EVO boot screen? The reason I ask is because the initial bootup for Synergy can be quite long and you will appear to hang at BOTH the boot screen AND the Synergy splash screen. I suggest doing the following to successfully flash RLS-1 (non G mode):

1. If you are not using amonRA v2.3, download its PC36IMG.zip from my signature and flash it via the bootloader.

2. If you will be installing a great deal of apps & games, I highly recommend that you create an ext3 partition from within recovery. This is 'optional' and IS NOT necessary. If you choose to create an ext3 partition, follow the directions below:

a. Transfer the contents of your SD card to a computer or external device because this will erase EVERYTHING on it.

b. While in recovery (amonRA v2.3), select 'partition sdcard' and when prompted, enter zero for the SWAP, 1024 for the ext2 and the rest for FAT and when the process is finished, select 'upgrade ext2 to ext3'.

3. Go to amonRA's wipe menu and wipe everything on the list except the SD card, but if you just created the ext3 partition then include it to be wiped.

4. Download a fresh copy of Synergy RSL-1 (non G mode) using your computer and then transfer it over to your device via a USB cable and then by selecting the 'USB-MS' option. After the transfer is complete, disengage.

5. Flash the rom and then be patient during the initial boot process. Be mentally prepared to wait up to 20 minutes even though it shouldn't take that long.

6. Enjoy the rom.
