[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
I wonder if Hasbro plans on sueing ASUS since they probably have the name "transformer Prime" copyrighted. Maybe someone should give Hasbro Apple's phone number. They can get a few tips from them on how to sue someone for using a name or even perhaps a geometric shape such as a rectangle :D.

(Sorry had to do a little tongue in cheek with all this doom and gloom about delays)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SwissyChief:
I plan on covering up the ASUS on the back of my purple Prime with a Decepticon sticker :D Come at me, bro!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
i don't think they have either of those words under trademark, or they aren't enforcing it publicly, as asus had no problem with the original transformer.

if they marketed it with refrences to the IP, then they could have issue, but they are using the words in a more generic sence officially, and those of us who are familiar with the pop culture refrence that is implied, are making that association on our own.

:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:
Well hopefully not everyone is a d***head like Apple is.

Heck every time I call gamestop & ask them about the Transformer Prime they think I'm talking about a game lol.I'm like no the tablet. :cool:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
The question in trademark cases is, essentially, could a reasonable person be confused as to the source of a product or service bearing a trademarked term, image, design, etc.? The idea is that we don't want someone to be able to, say, sell a brown-colored (or potentially any other colored, nowadays) beverage and have a reasonable person think it comes from Pepsi. Or, trick someone into buying a cheap knockoff shoe by making them think it's made by Nike.

In this case, then, could someone think that the Transformer Prime is made by Hasbro? Are tablets like the Prime close enough to Transformer toys that a reasonable person is going to be confused as to their source?

I'm guessing, probably not, because Hasbro didn't sue ASUS over the name "Transformer," even though in fact the tablet "transforms" from one kind of device (a tablet) into another (a notebook computer) in much the same way that Transformers transform from robotic creatures into recognizable human vehicles. Either Hasbro didn't see a case, or there was a quiet license agreement cut between ASUS and Hasbro.

Interestingly, "Transformer Prime" takes the use even further away from the generic concept of "transforming from one thing to another" to a specific "Transformer" character, i.e., Optimus Prime. The word "Prime" in this case is very intimately tied to the Hasbro franchise, creatively. It's a bit of a stretch for ASUS to say "we really just mean that this tablet is the 'prime' example of a transforming device." I mean, seriously.

Again, though, tablets aren't the same as toys, and so although ASUS benefits from the connection made by fans of the Transformer cartoons and movies and such, there's not likely to be any confusion among consumers as to who is making what. Hence, there's probably no trademark infringement case.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
It doesn't necessarily refer to under optimus prime, since they don't use the word optimus and he was not the only prime anyways.

Not that it natters just making an argument for the sake of doing it. :)

Prime is just a designation of something being the first or best of something.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Angel7777:
Any one here about the sale of the transleeve?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
Thanks god the Tegra 3 doesn't use NVIDIA's Optimus technology right lol? We would be in real trouble if the Transformer prime had Nvidia Optimus. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] colonel187:
Actually have that on my alienware m11x and it works trouble free for me. I get your joke but I don't see an issue.

There is also an lg optimus phone.

I think its funny that Motorola has to license "DROID" from George Lucas even though the phones had no reference to star wars except for the d2
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
Well, since the Transformer Prime has been so heavily marketed and ASUS has a Transformer line of products, I am sure any legal dispute would lead to a licensing agreement like the use of "Droid", which was also kinda a questionable trademark.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I can only think that Motorola must have thought it would be cheaper to pay the license than battle it out with LucasArts in the courts. And, they got the added benefit of the direct marketing tie with the D2.

However, the same standard applies there: would a reasonable person think the "Droid" phone was from LucasArts? I'd say the case is even clearer here: I don't think ANY reasonable person would think that "Droid" as used here has anything to do with the Star Wars "droid", as opposed to the much more obvious shortening of "Android" the mobile OS which, you know, runs on mobile phones like the Droid line.

And again, there might be a license agreement between Hasbro and ASUS, and they just didn't publicize it. Although I'd give that idea more credence if ASUS were to use actual Transformer imagery in their marketing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
I was just trying to be funny. I also have a M11x but I have a R1 so no optimus. Just thought it would be funny if it was a Transformer Prime w/ Optimus technology lol. This whole thing was sort of my stab at apple and them sueing everyone and a brother for anything they precieve as their invention. Was wanted to throw out some fun since everyone is doom and gloom about a delay or what not.
[General Questions and Answers] ms28leo:
Where are the master minds? I search alot for the custom ROMs for Alcatel OT990 but found nothing, i m wondring there is no proper development workout n news for this phone although it have the hardware similarity with ZTE Blade,HUAWEI and some other phones that are gaining custom ROMs n development work from Develpers n Hackers either thay are from XDA or other platform. My question is why like this?

I think there are many lovers of XDA who are axpecting great work on OT 990. I will be happy to know if there some resulted work is done.

:confused:
[General Questions and Answers] ms28leo:
????????????????????

Is there any one? I personaly appreciat one guy Sebastian who put his head to ot 990 tried to make a debranded rom although that has many flaws, n for the cwm recovery. but he too discontinued his work on this device.

Is there no one who is interested in ot 990's rom development:(

custom rom 2.3

for russian users, I do customizations based on firmware version 2.3 and pack this in update.zip for flash cwm
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
I'd post to the ROM section but I'm not yet sufficiently "priv'd" for that so figured I'd start here as it will also solve my problem of not having enough posts to post there.

I'm trying to generate my own CM7 update.zip using JackpotClavin's stuff so that I could try to work the sound and video issues (ultimately I'd like to get the bluetooth going as well but that may be solved by some of the kernel work that appears to already be underway)

I've got the build running in a fresh VM but I'm obviously missing something as when I flash my build it gets stuck in an boot loop on the Cyanogenmod splash screen (comes up, spins for s few seconds and then recycles)

I'm able to get into adb shell and flash back JackpotClavin's update.zip and recover fine but I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with my update.zip file (as a side note, I've also ordered the stuff to build myself a factory cable so if I really screw myself I can get back to the fastboot to put something workable back down)

So, the steps I've taken are:

-Setup a 64bit Ubuntu 11.10 environment

-downloaded the CM7 repo

-Copied the proprietary github repo to .../android/system/vendor/amazon/blaze

-Copied the device gitbub repo to .../android/system/device/amazon/blaze

-Did the copy of the cyanogen_blaze.mk to vendor/cyanogen/products/ and edited the androidproducts.mk in there too as specified per the ROM thread

I then did a "brunch blaze" after setting the build environment to fire off a build and it chewed for hours with no obvious errors (none that caused an exit of the build) at least and in the end I had an update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-blaze-KANG-signed.zip that seemed good.

I flashed that to the device and that's what got me in the boot loop. Anyone have any ideas on what I missed in generating the build?

Well enough spewing, if anyone can help to get me going that would be great and thanks to JackpotClavin for the work to date.
[Kindle Fire General] randallu:
Can you get a logcat dump? Sounds like it's getting pretty far.
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Will do, I copied it aside when it was stuck in the loop and will post when I'm done with the current task and get back to a place where I can get to the sdcard contents. JackpotClavin sent back a note saying that he added some clearing of a couple of the partitions into his version of the ROM and that might be the difference so I'm off trying that now. More in a bit.
[Kindle Fire General] cgilstrap:
awesome. very excited. keep up the good work guys.
[Kindle Fire General] pyrostic:
lucky you... i can't even get my environment to boot. I have a core i5 w/ 16gb of ram.
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Ok, not sure whether what Jackpot said helped or not. I did the following:

-I unzipped the update.zip that I generated

-I then edited .../META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and added the lines

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p10");

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p11");

after the existing line below

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p9");

-I then zipped back up the directory to make an updated update.zip file and then copied it to the sdcard partition and went through the CWM recovery installation and booting again (as an aside, I'm going to look into making an edit to CWM for the near term until they fix things up to work with the touch screen and see if I can have it always boot to CWM and then just wait for 10sec and if no button presses then I'll continue the boot (not sure if that'll work but it would sure be a lot easier than all of the switching between the stock and CWM recovery images.

-I then flashed back the stock recovery image and rebooted and this time I got to the actual CM7 desktop but after a few seconds it reset and I was back at the CM7 loading screen (so like before but I seem to get to the login screen faster now such that I see it before the reset happens)

-I then captured the two attached files (the output from logcat and dmesg)

I'm going to go unzip my update.zip and Jackpot's update.zip and see if I can track down the difference there.

As always, any help is greatly appreciated.
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Are you running Native or in a VM? I can point you at the pages I followed to get to where I'm at if that helps. I'm doing Ubuntu 11.10 64bit in Fusion on a Mac with 2GB and 2 cores and seem like I'm close. Post here if you want me to dump in the steps and links I used to get you farther.
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
No luck on the changes proposed by JackpotClavin. I'm pulling the repo's again and rebuilding overnight and will try again in the morning. I'm down to all of a couple of files that are different between my build and his so I'm close.
[Kindle Fire General] smirkis:
goodluck :)
[Kindle Fire General] Veritass:
Hope this works.I'd love to have sounds and you tube working
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Yep me too. That's why I figured I'd start the process of getting my own build going so that I could try to push the ball forward as JackpotClavin has finals the next few weeks. Build's done but I have not been able to test yet (the day job has gotten in the way) Maybe tonight if I get a chance (the new build is done and I've made the hand patches so just need to do the testing)
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
SUCCESS (at least in getting a build that mimics where JackpotClavin left off) I'm now off building a new version with a couple of possible flags thrown for the build that might help the sound and video issues. More in a bit...
[Kindle Fire General] andTab:
Success with sound?
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Nope not yet but thats my current quest. Right now I just have what JackpotClavin has going (which of itself took me a few days to get working reliably) First try today on sound was a no go but I have another build going now so will check in the morning to see if I'm any closer.
[Kindle Fire General] whistlestop:
Quick update as I'm heading out to work. Sound is working (at least I can play an MP3 and it plays) I'm going to test things out today and if everything sound wise seems to be working then I'll post the new update.zip tomorrow.

I'm now off to look at the video issue. I at least know that we're missing a library so now I need to see how to go about getting into place (not sure if I missed copying something from the original ROM or if I need to toggle some more flags to get it built)
[Kindle Fire General] detnap:

Opened up a new thread in the ROM section to track this going forward. New update.zip posted with sound working.
[Kindle Fire General] gatoruso:
EDIT: Errors are probably due to changes to JackpotCalvin's git repo since the OP.

Whistlestop: I'm trying to build CM7 as per your instructions, but I'm getting errors that I think may be related to the way I set up the CM7 repo.

I followed the steps listed on the CM wiki:

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread

Did you do the same?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] houstonsveryown:
Seems to me that all the Samsung galaxy S II line up besides AT&T SGS II are getting a white version of their models. I mean even the skyrocket got a white version in less than a month after its release. November 6(Release Date)-December 4(White Version Release Date) So my question is has att and Samsung just abandoned the Galaxy S II? And Would you buy a white version if it was available at launch? and if any owners of the black version be interested in a white version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] PatriotXT92:
I would have considered getting a white version of the phone. If I had the chance I would switch the black one for the white one(if it existed). It makes it a bit more unique, although most phones now are coming out with a white version it seems.

it just seems to me more than just a few people wish they could get a white version over the black version. i admit i almost got a white skyrocket when radio shack offered it to me cause this replacement for My SGS2 is taking a while to come in.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] quarlow:
I'd have taken a white one, if I could have. I like the all black front, where the screen edge is hard to distinguish from the bezel, but white would be nicer. If they did offer a white one I think I would just lick up a back plate on eBay instead of buying a new one.

I just got my case today its pretty! Its thin looks more fragile than the phone. On phone its sturdy and firm fit. Id feel comfortable dropping my phone on the street with a casemate pop or tough case. But id only feel safe dropping it on the carpet of my living room with this case =/

I also thought of getting a leather case cause that saved my zune countless drops and scratches. Editor, Gariz, and Argos have nice cases

On some applications, it doesn't display the top line of the keyboard where the predictive text shows and can be selected. Sort of makes this keyboard a non-starter, wish I could get my money back.
