I wonder why they changed the model numbers and why bestbuy is showing this as a "New" product, and they also have the original for sale for 399. go figure

The og was model TF101-A1 (B1 for 32gb) and this one is TF101-X1... I wonder 1. why they changed the model # and 2. Why on earth would they still sell the A1 model for 399 when the X1 is 299???
[Eee Pad Transformer General] daranman:
I got my TF101-X1 on Black Friday, and I think the only difference is the box...basically brown with no picture. My guess is that BB is going to try to sell the leftovers from BF on-line, vs. leaving these in the stores. It's also a B90, so the best way to root it is via Razorclaw. I wasn't sure if I wanted it because of the impending release of the TF201, and didn't even open it until I found out that BestBuy will take it back all the way up to January 24! with no restocking charge.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Anyone thinking of ordering from bestbuy.com might want to read their forums, they are having some kind of meltdown that is resulting in a LOT of complaints.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jimmyzshack:
The reason for the different sku # is where they don't have to price match the black ones. Got to love their commercials about how they will price match though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Meltdown is too kind. Ordered in stock software 11/27 they are quoting me Dec 12 dlvy IL to MD
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Yes, well, I agree, but I wanted to warn people without turning this into a BB bash thread. I'm waiting for some orders from BB myself and I'm not happy about it. They are pulling the stock number trick with the Transformer, and there is even a thread about that on that forum (not me!), so you can only get it at that price on line.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Rumbleweed:
Lots of TF went back to ASUS for various reasons over last 5-6 months. it is possible the "X" stock numbers are refurbs. Be interested to see what serial #s are.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pbtran:
They would have to tell you it was a refurb and the black friday ad and the current ad say nothing about a refurb. The X1 stock number is to make it harder to price match since no other stores have that model number.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Exactly. A lot of stores have done that for a long time to make it harder to compare. It used to be that if you were big enough Sony (for example) would make a special run for you with a slightly different official model number. Now they just lie and enter it into their system with an extra "X" or "1" or a couple leading zeros so they can disclaim any price match. Bestbuy.com is not actually associated with the stores, and they like it that way; they can and do have different pricing. The stores don't have to honor the on line prices.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vinylb:
I picked both tablet and keyboard dock from bbuy on blackfriday and was too surprised they arrived in a bronze color instead of black. But the color is nice and gives it a distinct look unlike all the others in the market. Works well and is pretty fast, screen is awesome.

Going to grab another one if it is still at $299.

thx for headsup!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GasGuzz:
Loss Leader Pricing… Walmart is not alone in this strategy.

While it is true big-box merchants are able to have suppliers build BF-specific goods, fortunately the BB execution of the X1/vB90 is only different in packing (BB is big enough for this). I have not seen/read indications the X1 is not the A1. With TF201 around the corner, the timing of the marked-down TF101 was perfect. My 2hrs-40mins start/finish is well worth the T1.

The BF rush works, last I read BF-2011 wkend made $37.6B (yes that’s a B). Just take look at what folks are buying through the checkout queue – items at full retail.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] chemantryg:
The -X1 is the same model number they had for Black Friday. It was a special model they got from ASUS for BF.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] ImSlower:
Yep, this deal is why I am now a very, very happy Transformer user. My old G-Tablet was stolen a few months ago, and I've been tablet-less for too long.

I saw the deal on slickdeals and spent literally all Sunday afternoon hiking and subway'ing around Manhattan. Every single Best Buy gave me the runaround that none were in stock. I almost got one guy to pricematch the regular one, but his manager wouldn't allow it. Finally, the store on 44th and 5th had one listed in their inventory, and I helped the guy spy out the brown box under some laptops.

Last damned one on Manhattan. Still haven't rooted/ROM'ed it - the stock seems very acceptable for my needs at the moment.

Hope you guys get yours shortly! Cheers!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
You went through all that trouble for a $100 off? Wow...

It's times like this that I'm glad I took the opportunity to buy my transformer brand new for $250 3 months ago. Back then, everyone was still "ipad is the best, everything else sux".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ninja Monkey:
I ordered one a few days ago. I got tired of my Touchpad and sold it for $200. I also had an $80 Reward Zone so it only cost me $33 out of my pocket to get the Transformer. I received an email saying it's on the way to the store. Can't wait to play with it next week.

I will be rooting it ASAP. I hope the Nexus comes out soon but this will give me something to play with in the meantime.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ImSlower:
Yeah, sure I did. I left at maybe noon, and got home with my new toy at 3:30 or so. So, instead of spending a half hour marching to a store and spending 440, I spent 330 for an extra three hours of walking around. I consider saving 33 dollars an hour a good time investment. And, honestly, the satisfaction of finding that very last one was pretty exhilarating. I tried and missed on all the black friday weekend deals; Newegg rejected me, my instant clicks on Amazon's lightning deals didn't work, was working during the Kmart Acer deal, etc and onward.

In other news, I'm really enjoying the Android Market's 10 cent deals the past few days. Have picked up a bunch of nice games, both for myself and to keep my little second cousin occupied. And several useful apps. All for about a dollar fifty so far.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cdoan34:
great tablet for anyone thinking to buy. i got mine on black friday at gamestop for 300 and i think its a great deal

i never really thought id really use a tablet but when it was on sale on black friday i decided to splurge and get one and if i didnt like it i would return it, but i havent wanted to return it since i opened it.

great battery life, i have it overclock/undervolted on revolver rom and it lasts me about 3-4 days with the dock. i use it everyday at school to type notes etc.

great device for anyone imo. worth it even with the impending prime release.

i played with a prime in the store and while the processor is evidently faster just playing around with the stock os and everything and that thing has an amazing screen. but i dont see anything wrong with the transformer now. honestly if i used them and they werent side by side, it would be a small difference. as far as brightness, i never go 100% brightness anyways because i think its too bright and the prime goes so bright it hurts my eyes lol...

it also might just be me but i really like the back of the transformer cause im not really afraid to stick it into my backpack with my spiral binders and stuff because im not afraid its gonna scratch the back. With the prime it seems like it would scratch easier with the shiny back.

anyways not hating on the prime but i guess its just my mind's way of justifying my buy haha.

XD i recommend this tablet 110%!!!

Is there a link for directly rooting the android m860? Trying to download 2.3 update to phone
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicolegiusy:
Hi all,

I would expose you to a problem, I have some beautiful cufie BOSE in-ear OE2i I use with my ipod but I would use DHD also seen that the audio level has nothing to envy to Apple.

The problem is that cufie feel fine, the microphone and the pause / answer function keys do not work but rather to increase the volume.

I initially thought of a hardware conflict but I have found not to be so! MIUI work perfectly with Roma but as jumping track.

At this point I think you can remap these keys!

But how can I do?

I do not use MIUI, I do not like it and is too similar to the Iphone.

Does anyone know give me a hand??

Thanks in advance to all.

Sorry for my bad English
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shree.cse:
I have a similar kind of problem with Bose in-ear Mie2i model. It has a single long button which works for play/pause/previous/next. But this function seems to be limited with ipod.

But with DHD I can only use the button for play/pause, no volume control with volume buttons. When I double press the long button, it's going to redial, unable to skip a track.

I don't even find a variance with MIUI Rom.

Thanks for the thread.

Sent from my Desire HD
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@jkel:
You can try using an application called Headset Droid to remap those keys to your liking. It's a paid app, but its worth it, has many features. Worth noting is that the author states he cannot map the volume keys from Apple headsets because of patents pending ;) Therefore those volume keys won't work on android, but the rest can be set up as you wish.

Hello,

like maybe others here I own an Android TV box (Flexiview FV-1)

More info here: Flexiview.tv

I think for the price is a really good homme movie solution.

The idea is to adapt a DIY Ambilight system on it . I dont know if there any possibilities but here are some way :

- Boblight (developed for Linux) : if I'm not mistaken Android is a derivative of Linux, then maybe there is a possibility to adapt Boblight for Android or directly creat an application to work with it .

- Arduino ambilight system : Many ambilight solution exist based on arduino, this is a simple and cheap way to create the system . This system can work with Boblight .

Here are some exemple :

Adalight

Amblone

Atmolight

Some video demonstration of Boblight + Arduino :

Here are the base of the project.

If any here thing is a good project or want to join us, dont hesitate !

[Edit] Sorry, I'm new here, I can't post URL ...
[Android General] Tr1age:
I do not provide anything valuable to offer this project except some subtle encouragement. I'm currently working on on my own Ambilight system using www.livelightproject.com and Boblight.

What I would like to see from this project, which is related to your post, is an Android application that can change the colors of the LED's to static colors or to changing colors depending on the image on screen.

Just a thought. :cool:

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyder560:
Update: Ok so with some researched I see that kershoots or pershoots (whatever the name is) the OC kernel disables the auto rotate feature. How do I uninstall this OC kernel and switch back to the stock one?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightmarebadger:
That was only true for the old versions of the kernel which were meant for 3.1 (if you used the kernel for 3.1 on 3.2 it broke auto rotation).

I'm on 3.2 with pershoot's kernel and auto rotation works fine. Flash the latest version and it should work.

Or if you want the stock one, just flash that one, it will overwrite what you have automatically, no need to "uninstall" anything.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Van jaime:
as nightmarebadger if your GT P-7500 have honeycomb 3.1 and your kernel is wrong you crash the autorotate function and so much.

For those who did this and want auto-rotate back and OC HoneyComb 3.2 GT P-7500.

1) download the last Kernel for this model http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=2395

2) find the model you have: Example 10.1 3G, Touchwiz UX (HC 3.2 (stock); GT-P7500) download the .zip file

3) install the kernel.

and enjoy auto rotate.:D

HELP!! I'm a techie, but a newbie to Android and rooting and such.

I had a regular 3G Galaxy Tab 10.1, then I rooted it and put Overcome on it (this file: 001003-Overcome_10.1_Series_v2.0.0_P7500_Full.zip). Then I put this kernel on it because I read that I could overclock it to 1.4Ghz (boot-cm_2636.4_p4_ux-oc-xtra-vfpv3-d16_fp-102411.zip).

Everything was working great... except that I was having the same problem as above (the tablet wouldn't work with auto-rotate). I decided to try to fix it - I found this thread, and followed the instructions. I downloaded the Dec 11 kernel for this: 10.1 3G, Touchwiz UX (HC 3.2 (stock); GT-P7500. Then I booted into Recovery, tried to install an older version of ROM/Kernel (or something like that) thru Advanced Recovery, and then afterwards I installed this new kernel. And after all that, my device was completely wiped... but my auto-rotate STILL won't work! Can you please help!!

This is currently what I have on my device:

[HTC Wildfire S] laurence997:
If anybody is wondering about cases, I bought the case mate tough case from amazon last week, it arrived today. Paid about 25 euro inc. postage to ROI. :)

Case looks good on the phone, its a silicon inner case with a hard polcarbonate shell. Access to all buttons and connections are good. It seems sturdy enough, but I have yet to drop it (I'll update when I drop the phone, it wont take long :rolleyes:) If it bothers anybody, the case makes a hollow noise when you tap the back of it, it annoys me a little, but I cant imagine I'll be tapping the back of the phone that much anyway :p

A silicon lip around the screen also helps protect the screen if left/dropped on its face, as well as stopping it slipping while left on a hard smooth sloped surface.

The case is about 2 or 3mm thick I would estimate. Most people dont like thick cases, but on the contrary, I kinda like the added bulk, I have big hands. :p

The back of the case is textured with ridges, but the hard plastic still feels somewhat slippery or something. Its not in any way difficult to hold, but perhaps not as grippy as a rubberised finish would be. An advantage of the hard shell is that it slips effortlessly in and out of your pocket. The small silicon faces exposed don't gather much lint either, and they lose it really easily anyway when you run your finger along them.

A screen protector and screen wiping cloth are included, I havn't tried either of them yet though so cant comment.

Something that's important to point out about this case and other accessories for the wildfire s - I know its been said before, but the wildfire s comes in 2 different sizes. This case fits the european version of the wildfire s, to the best of my knowledge the otterbox case fits the american version. Just be careful when getting a case, I almost bought the otterbox, whick would have been way too large :o ;)

Overall, first impression is that this is a good case. If you don't like bulk maybe this case isn't for you, it does add quite a bit to the phone size wise, but I have rather a habit of dropping mine so I don't mind, it can use all the protection it can get. :D

I'm just putting this brief review up for anybody who wants info on it, I'd be happy to answer any questions if I'm leaving out anything. :)

[HTC Wildfire S] JFcavedweller:
yes otterbox fits the US ones, I've got it and I love it. they appear near-identical to the case-mate one, so just about everything you say applies the same to that. the only big difference is that otterbox has very light texturing on the plastic part.

so if youre in the camera app, just use the volume rocker and set it to nothing - i had this by accident and noticed there was no shutter sound

there should also be another way if you rooted your phone to delete the camera.ogg file somewhere - but pretty sure you wont have it at all anymore if you take that approach
