Lol I figured we all would have seen the update regardless but it was like holy crap moment for me and as I had no one else to share it with I decided to post XD can't wait to put it through its paces. I'm gonna flash back to stock through it and then redo everything root-wise just so as not to have that little triangle!

I downloaded it but have nothing to flash through it yet. Please post back your results and what you needed to do in order for everything to work...Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gene_Bailey:
Actually he includes really extensive instructions in his description in the market, and in the app. It actual is more user friendly than the ODIN on the computer. It knows what you're flashing based off the file type selected and automatically readies your phone for everything, even going so far as to block off access to other options which would cause damage to your phone. Plus its impossible to lose root and it doesn't up your Odin binary counter OR cause that awful yellow triangle. This is a God send.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spdwiz18:
Mobile odin works great. Just used it on ek02.tar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Yeah I read all of that. I think the past that I was confused about was the kernel you needed to download in order for it to work. What is the point of that extra file and will it change the kernel that is built into the ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
It's probably just a kernel module.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gene_Bailey:
What do you mean the extra file? The extra file it downloads to get itself working when you first open the app? I'm not sure what it is.. I just assumed it was the rest of the program to cut down on a huge download from the market. But I'm not sure.

Install this after installing mobile odin lite and you will be able to use almost all features of the app except everoot.

Or why not just pay the man. His work is unbelievable. Definitely worth 2 bucks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
Exactly. A lot of work was put into making that and for just a couple of bucks it's not a bad way to show your support.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wytecaztle:
Lol this is from the thread on xda guys. He gives us the lite version for free. Check the mobile odin thread this is just the kernel module so its compatible to flash .tar files and such. Just trying to help the guys who dont know how to use it. If you need the module i posted it here thanks to chainfire.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Whether you buy the app or use the free version it still uses that file and my question was what that file actually is for not if the app is worth $2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
Not sure if I am unlucky or what, but I can't get mobile Odin to flash anything correctly. I've had boot loops, stuck at Samsung splash screen and it just plain not flashing what it said it did. I am disappointed I paid for this app. Regular Odin is much more reliable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gene_Bailey:
There was a glitch he had to fix along the lines of what you're experiencing. His fix was pushed through the market. And then be asked us all to delete the file that the app downloads initially so that it could redownload an updated version. That should fix your issues. Mobile Odin has been nothing but reliable for me :-\
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CyberPunk7t9:
-The Tegra 3 SoC (System on a chip) is a combo of a microprocessor, a memory controller, an audio processor, a video encoder and a graphics renderer. It's designed and manufactured by Nvidia, world leader of graphics computing, making it's first appearance in the Asus Transformer Prime.

-The Tegra 3 SoC has 5 physical cores, but limited to performance of quad-cores. The 5th, lower power core, is activated only when the device is idle or handling low tasks, such as syncing and e-mail checking. So, power consumption is always kept to minimum when performance of the quad-core is not needed, ensuring longer battery life. Once you run a normal or higher-demanding task on the tablet, the 5th core shuts off automatically before the 4 main cores are activated. This is all the bios of the chip and doesn't require the user or the developer to change anything to use the Android OS and application this way. Android OS already has a the best support for multi-tasking and is multi-threaded friendly compared to competing operating systems in the market. So, this should be good news of the Asus Transformer Prime to-be users soon.

-The GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) in the Tegra 3 Soc has 12 shaders. But, because Nvidia has not followed a unified-shader architecture in this ARM SoC like they've been doing in their PC and MAC discrete graphics cards, 8 of those 12 shaders are reserved for pixel work and the remaining 4 are for vertex. Maybe Nvidia will use unified-shader architecture in the next generation Tegra SoC'es, when the ARM-based devices are ready for it. The PowerVR MP2 GPU in the iPad 2 has more raw power than the Tegra 3 GPU (Actually, it's the only one thing I personally like about the iPad 2, it's GPU!), but the Tegra 3 Geforce (the commercial name Nvidia uses for their gaming graphics processors) should give a solid 3D performance in games, especially the officially supported games. Nvidia has long history in 3D gaming and been using it's solid connections with game developers to bring higher quality gaming to Android, like what we've seen with Tegra 2 SoC capabilities in games listed in the TegraZone Android app. Add to that, games are not just GPU bound, Tegra 3's quad-cores and 1GB system RAM (iPad has 512MB) will pump up gaming qualities for sure and the pixel density of 149ppi displays crisper images than the 132ppi of the iPad 2. Once the Asus Prime is released, it can be officially considered the highest performing Android device in the world, especially 3D gaming.

Well, I thought I'd have more to type, I paused for a long time and could not think of anything to add. :) I only wanted to share few things I know about the Tegra 3. I have high interest in computer graphics/processors and been following the Tegra project since 2008.

Some of the Asus Prime to-be-owners doesn't know or care that much about technical details of the CPU in the device and I thought of sharing with them.

Thanks and gold luck. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] suwu10:
Thanks for the info. Very interesting :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jerrykur:
As I understand it, the use of the lower power 5th core has decreased battery consumption by over 60% when compared to the earlier 2 core design. I am not sure how they are measuring consumption and the task load.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarsVaeda:
I am most exited about the tablet because of the tegra 3.

In smartphones I find the idea of putting more than one core quite rubbish.

It is not the best solution for a tablet or any other mobile device too. I would highly appreciate a well programmed software over overpowered hardware.

Yet the tegra has a nice concept.

I think most of the time I won't use more than that 5th core. I mean it is even powerful enough to play HD video.

I will primarily use apps that display text and images. Like the browser who is said to utilize 4 cores. But I am sure only because of the crappy programming.

So if people finally come to their minds and start optimizing their apps we will have one quite powerful core and 4 in backup for REAL needs. Seems like an investment in the future for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xTRICKYxx:
Straight from Wikipedia:

Tegra 3 (Kal-El) series

Processor: quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore, up to 1.4 GHz single-core mode and 1.3 GHz multi-core mode

12-Core Nvidia GPU with support for 3D stereo

Ultra low power GPU mode

40 nm process by TSMC

Video output up to 2560×1600

NEON vector instruction set

1080p MPEG-4 AVC/h.264 40 Mbps High-Profile, VC1-AP and DivX 5/6 video decode[18]

The Kal-El chip (CPU and GPU) is to be about 5 times faster than Tegra 2[19]

Estimated release date is now to be Q4 2011 for tablets and Q1 2012 for smartphones, after being set back from Nvidia's prior estimated release dates of Q2 2011,[20] then August 2011,[21] then October 2011[22]

The Tegra 3 is functionally a quad-core processor, but includes a fifth "companion" core. All cores are Cortex-A9s, but the companion core is manufactured with a special low power silicon process. This means it uses less power at low clock rates, but more at higher rates; hence it is limited to 500 MHz. There is also special logic to allow running state to be quickly transferred between the companion core and one of the normal cores. The goal is for a mobile phone or tablet to be able to power down all the normal cores and run on only the companion core, using comparatively little power, during standby mode or when otherwise using little CPU. According to Nvidia, this includes playing music or even video content.[23]

Tegra 3 officially released on November 9, 2011[/LEFT][/CENTER][/FONT]

Tegra 2's maximum ram limit was 1GB. Tegra 3's could be 2GB.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
The rumor mill is churning out some specs on an upcoming Lenovo tablet with some funky specs, like 2GB DD3....so it's possible. However, the same leak/article also says its chip is clocked at 1.6 Ghz which is quite a bit out of spec, so I would take it with a usual:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nook-color:
You can read the White Papers on the Tegra 3 over on Nvidia's website. But the chip has a controller built into the chip that activates either the 4 cores, or the 1 core based on power demand of a given processing activity.

The quad vs single core are made out of different silicone materials, but same design structure in order to maximize the energy efficiency at the performance curve. The difference of Materials is more efficient at different power curves. So the 5th core is very efficient at low processing levels where it is actively being used.

It's pretty cool stuff
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xTRICKYxx:
*Correction: Tegra 3 supports DDR2 AND DDR3. The original Transformer had 1GB of DDR2 @ 667Mhz. The Prime has 1GB of LPDDR2 @ 1066Mhz, a considerable bump in speed. Also, Tegra 3 supports up to DDR3 @ 1500Mhz!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
I'm sure it can, hopefully they increase the battery capacity to compensate for increased power use. As far as the memory, Nvidia's site on Tegra 3 lists DDR3 (though its still running on a 32-bit bus which may or may not be an issue with 3d games), upto 2GB. However, every bit of spec info on the Prime I can find lists DDR2...so I don't know.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xTRICKYxx:
The Prime's RAM speed is considerably faster than the TF101.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
If it does have room to expand, could we expand or upgrade the RAM?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Smyc151:
Judging by the pictures, it doesn't look like the RAM will be removable or upgradeable (the RAM is the Elpida chip right next to the processor).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
I never said it wasn't.

What I said is that both Tegra 2 and now Tegra 3 have a single 32-bit wide memory interface when compared to the two on the A5,Exynos,Qualcom, and OMAP4 chips. What that means is that theoretically it will have lower bandwidth which may cause problems with upcoming games, especially considering that you now have to feed extra cores and a beefier GPU. Now, whether or not it will actually be an issue...we will have to see.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diversion:
Sad that the SGX543MP2 in the Ipad2 is still faster than the Tegra3's GPU. Apple is always ahead of the curve.. Just when Android devices started becoming as fast as the iPad1.. The iPad2 was released and remains to have one of the strongest SOCs out in the field.

Even for pure CPU benches.. the 1ghz dualcore A5 smokes most chips running faster clocks in dual core configs.

Regardless, this is still the most powerful Android device to date. Just disappointed that Nvidia, one of the king of GPU makers can't even compete with PowerVR.. a much smaller company with a lot less money.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
I would have to agree with you that Nvidia dropped the ball on their new GPU, at least on paper.

However, it's not as simple as having "omg wtf i > you" hardware that's the source of the performance. What Apple really has going for them is uniformity of hardware/software. Apple software is designed to work on very specific and strictly controlled hardware setup which allows for an incredible level of optimizations of software. This "closed loop" if software/hardware is what really drives the performance of the iProducts. Simply put, probably way over-simplified, but it let's them do more with less.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CyberPunk7t9:
That is correct. Actually, the "5th" core is licensed with ARM A7 instructions set, the quads are A9.

Again, I agree. Just like saying why Xbox360 and PS3 consoles can still push high quality graphics compared to a new high-end PC? Unity of hardware plays a big role there.

I have a $4000 custom PC. Sometimes I see my brother play the same games on his $250 Playstation 3 with performance and graphics very similar to my PC.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RussianMenace:
That's because these days, most PC games are console ports.:p
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
GPU specs don't matter. The iPad has more and better games than Android tabs, and that won't change for the (1-yr) lifespan of the Teg3. Not to be a downer, but it's just reality.

The Prime is better at certain things. HDMI-out and USB host (NTFS) support makes it a pretty good HTPC, for one. But I wouldn't get into a pissing contest over games--unless of course you're talking about emus.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZenInsight:
Is that true? NTFS support? Are you sure? Can you link me to a spec for that? If so then I can transfer files from my SD to an external NTFS without using Windows! That would be great for trips when I need to dump digital pics.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Yes it's true. Unless you buy the USB adapter piece for the prime itself, the dock is where the USB host port is at. The adapter piece plugs into the pin port in Prime and has USB host capabilities same as found in the dock. There is a link in one of these threads to Asus site where they sell it. A good accessory to have if you don't have the dock yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZenInsight:
No. I know it has UBS host. I was referring to NTFS support specifically. I know of no other Android device that supports NTFS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
ES File Explorer has this support to any Android device. It even transfers over FTP and Bluetooth. Very nice file management app I use it all the time rather than plug my nexus one into my PC.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ZenInsight:
I think I keep being misunderstood here. I know files can be transferred from cards and drives to Android O/S and back..etc. This issue here is NTFS support over USB host. I don't believe this is true unless I see a spec link FROM Asus. Android reads Fat32 and Ext partitions. Not NTFS unless the manufacturer pays M$ to add the read/write support for NTFS into the Android kernel. It can be done...but someone has to pay royalties somewhere.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
There are open source linux based NTFS drivers available, if it hasn't already been done for android it surely can be done without royalties

I've found it more difficult that bc2. I was typically towards the top of the leaderboards pretty consistently in BFBC2, but now, I'm struggling.

No worries. IMO there's always a big learning curve while you get accustomed to each map. Do yourself a favor and get in a squad when you join a BF3 server. Nothing worse for your team than not being able to spawn on you b/c you're not in a squad.

[Motorola Droid 3] mvp3:
I am a rookie,sorry.
[Motorola Droid 3] TBBle:
I believe you can't change the kernel because the (locked) bootloader checks a cryptographic signature on the boot partition before it'll boot it.

You can replace the recovery partition, I thought, but during a cold boot the boot scripts rebuild it from the boot partition. (See /init.rc calling /system/etc/install-recovery.sh although I have no such file on my running phone, I presume it's erased or over-mounted...)

That's why you can battery-pull if your replacement recovery is broken, as long as it doesn't prevent reaching that far into /init.rc...
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
Because the Droid 3 bootloader is locked down unlike the original Droid 1. Without a unlocked bootloader it is impossible for custom kernels or fully custom recoveries.
[Motorola Droid 3] rvschuil:
Does this also mean we will be unable to flash the new Linux 3.0 kernel (where ICS runs on)? No idea if that would matter though..
[Motorola Droid 3] Androidsims:
We already have ICS booting on D3... it will be a couple months until there is a decent beta available though.
[Motorola Droid 3] mikedyk43:
The only way to change the kernel is with an official update from Motorola or an unlocked bootloader. The ICS we will likely see first for this phone will be a custom build (Hashcode) which will be built on the the kernel we currently have.
[Motorola Droid 3] Cdjones187:
According to the kernel version in Hashcodes ICS build it actually is different than our stock kernel. Not saying that is the kernel that will be in ICS (or if its truely different) but it is indeed a different #
