[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orateam:
I have/had:

* the Ipad 1 32gb

* Motorola Xoom (returned)

* HP touchpad (sold after 2 months after alpha3 crap)

and now the transformer.

1st things first, this is the best of the android tablets.

I thought the HP alpha 3 made a good attempt, but it's nowhere in the realm of the xoom/transformer. The transformer seems almost a clone from the xoom, but with the keyboard dock, just is cooler to lug around. Plus the extras asus has done has helped a bit.

Main complaints.

Email, especially handling multiple accounts.

Web, browser is crap, with keyboard, even more.

weight. awkward weight distribution. I can hold the ipad in widescreen format with one hand, but this feels really unnatural with the asus.

Advantages vs Ipad

styling, keyboard dock style, rear camera, flash, widgets.

Minor complaints

Not really great software available for it yet.

Keyboard dock touchpad is too sensitive. I can't ever finish typing a long url without it going bezerk on me. Also, while android is good at freeing up memory, it does not appear as efficient as IOS5. When i run an app on ASUS that is running slowly, i have to go out and run a task manager to clean up the garbage to speed up the app. I never have to do this with IOS even when i have tons of things running.

Ipad advantages:

when i want to surf the web, i prefer the iPad. most sites now have html5 versions and those versions are usually faster loading and smoother than the flash ones for ASUS. For emailing, i prefer it's built in email to android gmail. This is strange considering i only use gmail. But Ipad apps have very intuitive ways for multiple accounts. whether for facebook or email, the multi user integration is just smoother on ipad.

For games like word with friends, it plays it vertically while the tablet one on ASUS is horizontal with smaller letters. There is also the fact that there are many many more apps i still use, like dragon lords, that i had used freely on my old iphone and they still won't make for android.

So for now, I find I prefer the Old ipad for surfing and emailing. And i'm basically using the ASUS for gaming.

ANyone else have an ipad and asus? what are your thoughts?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regP:
2 things. third-party browser, thumb keyboards.

as for the weight I hold it in one hand in landscape and portrait with no problem. maybe because I have big hand.

K9 email, free

Kaiten email, nicer multi-pane view, looks good on tablets

Neither do Exchange

Opera mobile or Dolphin HD browsers, much nicer. There's even a Firefox. And quite a few other alternative ones on the market. Opera mini is great for a phone as it saves tons of bandwidth with its pre-rendered approach.

Root your tablet and get the V6 Supercharger script. Here on XDA. Find the thread, go to first post and download the latest beta. Makes a huge difference to the way the memory management behaves.

Now that you're rooted consider a custom ROM.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orateam:
I "thanked" you both for your posts.

I want to make this my primary tablet.

I just got the facebook and ebay updates and was dissapointed to see it not be tablet sized like the ipad one.

I will try the other browsers. I've been trying the firefox and firefox beta and really don't like em much.

thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordanjay29:
What in particular? You switch accounts at the top-left part of the screen. I've never used an iPad though, so I don't know how "intuitive" it apparently is.

No such thing as widescreen on an iPad.

You're either not looking hard enough, or not in the right place. Check out http://tablified.com for some good applications designed for Android tablets. And any app in the Android Market will work (that's hundreds of thousands of apps) on a tablet, it just might not be optimized for it yet.

It's a common trait with ASUS laptop/netbook keyboards, unfortunately. There's a handy button to disable the trackpad on the keyboard, the fourth key (from the left) on the top row. Use it and love it.

That's because iOS doesn't actually manage memory. Your programs aren't running in the background, they just get push services to make them appear like they're running. The apps actually close and restart (think about how a computer hibernates) with your old data still intact.

Android has true multitasking, which means apps are alive and running. It costs a little bit in memory, but modern Android devices have quite a bit of memory to use. If you root your tablet, you'll discover it's much easier to keep things in order, task managers in the Android market can't actually kill apps without root.

You know you can turn flash off, or set it to load on click? Change the Enable Plug-ins setting in the Advanced settings on the browser.

You know that you can actually contact developers and ask them to add features (like portrait mode, or auto-rotate, on WWF) or port their app for Android? Some developers will choose to do this if they see users asking for it, otherwise they think people [on Android] are fine without their app.

Yes, the gmail app does it nicely. But only for gmail email accounts. If the regular email program, which can handle multiple accounts like yahoo and work would work the same way, would be better. quick question here. In gmail, like ipad mail, there are 2 views: folder view and browse view. In folder view, you see your email folders (most only look at inbox) with only subjects and brief text on the right hand side. In browse mode, you see your email on the left with the full email with images on the right. When i'm in gmail and in browse mode and delete an email, it pops me out to folder mode. do you know any way to stay in browse mode? That's what i'm used to.

sure there is. it's just not as wide, but there is a landscape on it. It seems weighted to allow me to hold it in landscape mode with one hand. This is how i hold it.

Thanks, i'll try this

That explains the performance issues a little. But when my now aincient Ipad seems crisper regardless of how many apps are 'running', it does show that android needs a bit better memory management. Perhaps not really mutli tasking like ipad does.

Havent' had any luck with this. I turned it off, but it didnt load the html5 version. Perhaps the stock browswer doesn't come with html 5? when i go to some of my fav sites like http://www.theonion.com on my old ipad, it loads up quickly and the page is super smooth. it's completely html5. when i load it on the ASUS, its flash, even when i turn off the plugins, and loads up with tons of ads that slow the page to hell.

thanks again, i will do that more.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordanjay29:
Looking in the Gmail settings, go to General preferences and then change the Auto-advance settings. Choose either to go to a Newer or Older conversation to stay in the Browse mode, setting Conversation List kicks you back to folder view.

I'm sorry to say I've never used the built-in email program since Android 2.x, when it got support for multiple Gmail addresses. So I have no idea how it works now, I suspect its drastically different than what I would be used to. Sorry.

It's possible that ICS will resolve some of this, as it has a built-in task manager. Honeycomb is still a bit buggy, though, so this could be influenced by its bugginess.

It's because the sites aren't loading different versions depending on whether or not you have flash. They're loading different versions depending on the user-agent that the browser displays.

I don't know whether anyone has modded the stock browser to do it yet, but I know that Dolphin Browser HD can change its user-agent string to the iPad version. It's possible that the Cyanogenmod team will do this for Cyanogenmod 9, but that would require rooting your tablet to do.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theraffman:
Welcome to android, where you are not forced to use a specific app for a specific function. We have tons of choices for everything you have been talking about. Browsers, task killers, mail programs, roms, kernels, etc....the choices and combinations are vast.

Also, it really bugs me when people say that the ipad multitasks or that apps are "running" in the background... They aren't, the ipad doesn't mt, they just developed yet another clever trick in fooling people, kinda like how they handle force closes... Sneaky sneaky apple. All crap aside, the ipad is a nice piece of equipment, but with android we have options...start using them if you want to unleash the true potential of these devices.

Try k9 mail program, I have several emails accounts I use for my business,i practically run my company from my email. when I first left apple for android,i noticed the stock email was pretty bad compared to the one on iphone 4. so I started looking around and after a day or so I found k9... Best email ever, better than ios and that says alot... Ios did their email good imo. Check it out, its a sweet app.

I like dolphin browser and opera, I use firefox on occasion.

I run revolver rom with clemsyn kernel, if you haven't rootes and flashed a custom rom, then you have not experienced what this tablet can do, it really turns it into another beast all together.

I hope you can make it work for you, it really is a fantastic tablet, and its strengths lay with the fact that you can change everything to how you want it.

Ps. I have owned an ipad1 and ipad2... The ipad 2 I bought for one of my techs...all my technicians use tablets for work... And when I let him go (fired) I kept it for a week or so to play with it, then I gave it to a friend. I prefer the versatility of android over apple. When people ask me about android vs apple,i sum it into one statement. "if you want a device that simply works well without to much fiddling around, grab an apple, but if you want a device that can be great, easily customized with some work then go for android." Everything I could do on an idevice I can do on my android devices... And then some. maybe not right out of the box, but there is a replacement for everything. In my experience, android does most things better and a few things worse than ios.

Sent from my Infuse... Love it!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cdoan34:
so for the keyboard dock giving you issues when you are typing, you can turn off the touchpad by pressing the 4th button along the top row that looks like a touchpad with a line going across it. that way when you type, it wont click anywhere.

really great that asus put that button there

and as far as sensitivity, if i go into settings --> language & input, i can scroll down and theres a mouses and trackpad setting where i can change the pointer speed.

hope that helps you out with the dock

im running the latest revolver rom btw.

i havent used any of the other products on your list but i know that when people use my transformer and they come from galaxy tabs, ipads, or any other tablets, they are absolutely in love.

just bought it this black friday on sale and its alot more useful than i thought it was going to be :]
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
Opera Mobile is a full grown up browser and totally smokes both the built in Android and built in Apple browser.

Try it... It's really 5x quicker at most things, more HTML5 compliant.

It's worth also playing with the desktop/tablet settings in Opera Mobile, see which setting suits the sites you visit.

You might also try Opera Mini, but it's not really the same, it's designed for really bandwidth limited browsing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirSid:
I second opera mobile. Ive gone from stock to firefox to dolphin and I find opera to work the best for me
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orateam:
sounds like no votes for Google's browser or emailer program. Don't you think they should put more emphasis on getting those right instead of forcing people to pay for a better browser and emailer?

I've tried some of your suggestions, and will try more, but i'm finding i'm using the Asus less and less now. Still too slow on browser for my liking and that is what most tablets are used for.

I'm hoping that dolphin browser i have yet to use will be the trick pony.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
You're screwed, it's going to be the same fundimental engine as the stock.

Oddly, the only time I find my TF (with Opera) too slow is if I don't already have it in hand. At work, it's practically the only way to get a decent browser speed because it's on a different (and much less croweded) network.

CWM Flashable

Hi there,

as promised, please find attached a CWM flashable ZIP.

By the way - it is designed to work on both ODEX and DEODEX roms. So you can also use it on stock rom (like I do). The installation routine takes care of this.

All credits go to M_J_Nazari, I have just wrapped the zip around the camera apk.

As always: Flash on your own risk. It is unlikely something gets broken, but you never know.

Thanks and have fun

Hi,

I was just wondering if you could tell me, is there any way to apply the low battery hack to other apps?

I was using the voice recorder and it stopped working when my battery went low and it was really annoying because I still had 15% battery left, which is still quite a lot.

I'm not sure what other apps do this too, but it would be great to have this low battery hack working on the voice recorder too... please
