[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kiwimoose:
I am playing n64 games with a wii controller on my lapdock since I got my hands on the paranoid ROM.

My general gaming procedure goes like this:

Reboot to tablet mode.

Sync with wii controller using WiimoteController App

put phone in lapdock

start n64 emulator (Mupen 64 plus AE - not available on the market atm. google it!)

play n64 game of choice :D (e.g. : Star Wars Racer, Super smash bros,...)

the great thing with the emulator is that I can map any button to any function so playing with the Lapdock keyboard also works.

If anyone can get the wireless xbox 360 controller to work (using the usb adapter) please tell me :D
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vodapeek:
With flashing the new Honeycomp for my lovley P1010 comes the App VisitBritain.

Unfortunately the App starts with a black screen and ends with a crash.

Anyone else the same Problem ?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] collide:
Where did you get honeycomb? And GIEF TO ME NOW!!!!!1111 I have got this with the latest gingerbread rom and it works fine, it isnt very impressive imo.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vodapeek:
yes,

I think my wishing for a newer Version makes me a litle bit of silly, sorry
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
Just called them this morning, did not even know they where going to be selling them. The said they filled pre orders on a first come first serve basis. I went to the store and pre-ordered there, and received my 32 GB champagne Tablet withen 20 minutes.

*NOTE* they only have the 32 GB Champagne color.

Unfortunately it is a Christmas gift, so I will not be able to give any information on it.

EDIT: They will apparently ship even though it says in store pickup online. Just use the Chat.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
When are they shipping?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
what is abt? sorry for the lack of knowledge
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] etm250r:
I think he means this: http://www.abt.com/product/58305/ASUS-TF201B1CG.html
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
You mean you actually RECEIVED your Prime? Or just got a pre-order?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stereotada:
its an electronics store in illinois. damnit!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clenz:
Wow - shows them as in stock and available for in store purchase! They are about 1 hr away from me. I should hop in the car and head over there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
Yes i have received the prime.

I went there with no pre-order and did like a switch-a-roo and pre-ordered it in store just so i can be on the list of people that can pick one up.

They only have a store in the Chicago-Land area unfortunately.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Just another reason I'm sorry I moved away from Chicago...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GCurry:
I called. CSR rep said they sold out in minutes. New shipment in January, he said.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
In any event, just chatted with a CSR and he said they're out of stock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
i called on the phone and got one.. they are shipping it to me.. he said there was 3 left and he had 28 web chats for the same product to be shipped but i got one of the 3.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] desert_mouse:
Well if you live in Illinois you might be lucky enough to get a Champagne model. They definitely don't have the Grey in-store yet.

I just called for an online order and I was told I'd have to wait until mid-January if I ordered from them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
They told me in store that they would receives a trickle of tablets everyday so I'd call every day as they seem to be the most helpful.

I bought mine from Kevin if that helps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
they charged my card and sent me an invoice.. my guess is tomorrow i will get a notice that it will not ship and i will be out the money and have to wait for them to refund my money.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clenz:
This is getting ridiculous. They are showing up in flashes at places we never expected from all the announcements, then they are gone before anyone can react!

I've never chased a pre-order like this before - completely out of control....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
Thanks for a wonderfully informative thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
anyone else get to the point of getting an invoice?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bendispo:
Got an order in with a CSR. Started an online chat session right after I saw this thread open. Originally the CSR said that they didn't have any of the models in, but then said he'll check one more time.

After a couple minutes, he told me they had 5 left of the Champagne 32gb only. They had originally received 15, but 10 were accounted for by preorder.

He then gave me his telephone number and told me to call right away.

I called, and we went ahead with the order. Luckily, I've already been an ABT customer, so all my info was in the system. Just had to give them my credit card info.

Chose 2-day shipping, and was told I should get it on Friday.

I received a PDF invoice through email, but my order isn't showing up online yet ( crosses fingers).

This is absolutely crazy. I've had preorders in at 5 or 6 retailers, and it's come down to this?

The funny thing is, I was just shipped a gray dock yesterday from Best Buy. Gray dock and Champagne tablet? lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
I wanna know what that combo looks like. I think it would look pretty good personally :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
thats pretty much the same as me.. when i called they said there was 3 left and he had 28 people in webchats wanting them. so he said he could rush the order process and hopefully get one.

in the end they charged my card and i also got an ivnoice.. where do you search for an order on this site? i only see where to enter a tracking number.

he said tomorrow i should get a call saying i didn't get one, or a tracking number.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
After seeing this thread I immediately called in. Said they sold through the 10 they got yesterday in preorders but were supposed to get more in today. Checked and they had gotten today's shipment in and had 7 left of the 32GB Champagne and I got one, got the invoice and he said it's supposed to ship today or tomorrow. No tax and free UPS shipping. Hard to beat! Thanks OP!!!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
hopefully we all get shipping numbers tomorrow. at the same time i was in a webchat and they said they didn't haven't any more left. but the guy on the phone said 3 left and sent me an invoice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
Do they ship everywhere or just in IL?

EDIT: Website says it is for in store pickup only
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bendispo:
Shipped to Cali for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
IF it gets shipped, and I am crossing my fingers waiting for the tracking number, it's coming to Kansas for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
Gonna have to give them a call when I get home from class around 5... ( College for those who care. Not high school) Thanks for the heads up OP and bendispo.

EDIT: An DarthSilentBob. Also, I would "Thank" you guys but I have been told I can only click that button 8 times per day :p
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
they are out of stock now but if you called up they sent them to you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
after seeing this thread, i also called and ordered. this is my 4th preorder >< but this time I got charged+invoice showing it will be shipped 12/21/2011. i hope i get a tracking number tomorrow. good luck to everyone.

and thx op for the info!!!

ps:shipping to hawaii was $45(ups) wtffffff :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GCurry:
There is an online video floating around on the net, with that combination. One of the small house evals. Couple of guys, with a champagne tablet, grey dock, but they can't figure out which is champagne and which grey. Looks fine though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
so if we do the #'s just in this thread.. lol there are more than 5 people and aparently there was only 5 available. so some of us are getting worked with a backorder tomorrow.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
i counted 4 (including me) who actually got an invoice from this thread. but that will suck getting an email from another preorder saying backordered :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
yea thats just this thread. you have to factor in every other call and actual people in the store.. i think this will just a full price preorder.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] djsaad1:
anyone know if they have the docks in stock too?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
You could be right. It's why I'm keeping my new Amazon preorder open. But I have ordered from Abt before online for other things and have never had a problem. And the guy told me 7 were available when I called and was trying to get it in to beat the other orders. If I get a backorder email tomorrow I'm not sure what I'll end up doing but at least this was the most promising lead so far after my J&R preorder ended up being useless.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
yea true. but im trying not to get my hopes down hahaha
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
well hopefully we get lucky.. please update when you get a word tomorrow...

thanks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lalbcp:
I just placed a preorder with ABT (32Gb champagne including the dock); the CSR was very helpful (not like BB's); he said that I should expect it mid Jan. I'll keep my Amazon preorder as well... it's a race now!!!

EDIT: By the way, he offered me to add the dock to the order with a $20 discount on it! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
did they charge you? or when they ship?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
yea good question .. did they charge you right away?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
good fine. The guy I spoke to said they're sold out but he's going to check and see when they get more in.

Amazing how there's places unheard of because Asus failed to list these shops as retailers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lalbcp:
The charge shows already as pending charge on my credit card:

Trans Date	Type	Description	Amount

12/20/2011	Pending	ABT ELECTRONICS	$638.00

Do you see this as a good sign? the rep said that I cancel anytime at no charge and i'll get a full refund. He said that by doing this my order has priority, there is another way to preorder which is by giving them a deposit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
eh a bad sign for us.. b/c they charged all of us already but we have not 100% landed one.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
hmmm. dang, some of us might be getting preorders then....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
how about your invoice? how does that look? mine says shipping 12/21/2011.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irmoballen:
Mine just shipped - good luck to the rest of you!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
:o how do you know? you got a tracking #?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irmoballen:
Yeah, just got a "your order has shipped" email + tracking.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
dam.. i want that email.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lalbcp:
I just received the invoice. It says:

**** As Soon As Possible ****

LOL
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
yea mine has a ship date.. so thats my last thing i am holding on to. i'll call in a lil bit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irmoballen:
What time does your invoice have on it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
nice and grats. what did it say before it shipped on your invoice for shipping? todays or tomorrows date?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
Mine was from 12:53 today, but says shipping 12/21.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
dam you beat me by 9mins.. mine is 1:02.. i am done.

just did a web chat

[chris] order# 1220103rrec

[Tim S] we won't know until tomorrow.

[Tim S] We took a ton of orders all at once. mangement is sorting through it now to ensure they go out on a first come first served basis
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
ah dam. well that sucks :(:(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
Also at the store they said they wouldn't get the dock's in until the end of the month :( but I will say when they call me because i have pre-ordered it as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anyone747:
Damn, I placed an order at 12:53, and assumed I'm actually getting one, no shipping email so far... :mad:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jim_0068:
ABT is the largest independent electronics retailer in the country. They only have one store but have a nationally recognized install department and most Chicago celebs use their services and purchase from them.

If all the other retailer giants approached business like them the world would be a better place.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
good to know. never heard of them before this:D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jim_0068:
They never have great online deals but always have deals going in the store which kind of hurts their national exposure imo.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
still no word on my order.. terrible. so close but so far away.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
I just tried and they don't have any models available. I am heading to an area tomorrow that has an ABT right down the street from it and was hoping to walk in and pick one up, but I guess that's out of the question now lol. So OP you can change the title to "Out Of Stock 12/21!" lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
has anyone heard back yes or no on yesterdays orders? still nothing for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
Nothing here either. I'm not going to worry about it until the afternoon. The sales rep who took my order yesterday was pretty clear it wouldn't go out until today and the other person who has theirs shipped yesterday didn't get a tracking number until later in the afternoon. If I don't have something by 3 or 4 PM CST then I'll write it off and call in to cancel more than likely.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
yea i will 100% cancel my order.. i'll find it before they get it in..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
The ABT reps are very helful from my past experiences. I have ordered a couple of things back in April and they were very helpful. I bought a camera in-store and could have also bought a lens for it for super cheap. I was new to the DSLR's and passed. After playing with it for 2 days I decided to see if I could still get it. I went online and asked them. They told me I still could, but they didn't have any in stock but would ship it out when they received it since I was in the process of moving to DC. Free shipping and paid no tax on the lens.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
I've ordered from them online before which is why I had no issues jumping on this deal as soon as I saw it. They're a good company. I think the issue here is that the phone guys were getting orders and then they had people trying to do web chat orders and things got all confused. I'm very hopeful that I'll get my shipping notice and tracking number today, but I'm not going to keep a $500 charge on my card very long with no product.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Beknatok:
Mmmm, Abt.

I'm a local and have done business with them for years. They're fantastic all around, with a sort of old-school approach when it comes to sales and customer service.

For those of you who don't know, I'll let you in on another secret... you can often haggle with them, to get them to price match or cut you deals.

Right when the iPad2's were released, my fiancee wanted an iPad 1 and I knew they'd want to dump their iPad one inventory. They were still being listed at their regular MSRP price. So I called my sales rep (who I've been working with for a while), and explaining that I knew they'd want to dump iPad 1 inventory and asking if they'd be willing to cut me a deal. I pointed out that Apple was selling iPad refurbs at whatever price it was, and they gladly matched it (for a brand new iPad). Sealed the deal over the phone, drove over after work, and that was that.

Oh how I love Abt!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
yea i feel the same way.. if i am not getting it shipped today i would like to cancel and remove the charge.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
fwiw, i chatted with abt to check if they shipped the orders out. this is what they said....

[Jocelyn G.] Let me look that up for you. Please hold a moment.

[Me] ok thanks

[Jocelyn G.] Thank you for holding,

[Jocelyn G.] the order is shipping out today with UPS. Once the tracking number is available, this information will be e-mailed.

[Me] ok. do you know what time u guys ship out items?

[Jocelyn G.] The order is shipping out today, its been packed for shipment.

[Me] ok thanks!

but i wont believe it till i get a tracking number.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
i'll do the same and see what i get.

---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

I got the same thing.. tell you the truth, the rep is most likely just looking at the invoice and seeing the ship date and giving a canned response.. here is my log:

[Tamar B.] How may I help you?

[chris Carafello] I have not received a tracking # for an order i placed yesterday, order# #########

[Tamar B.] This order is shipping from our warehouse today, December 21st. You will receive an email later this evening with tracking information.

[chris Carafello] so my order is not back ordered?

[Tamar B.] Correct. We do have it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
JUST got my email with tracking number!!!!! WOOOO! They just entered it into the system so no info at UPS yet, but I'm stoked!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
I GOT A TRACKING NUMBER!!

yes!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
i just got that email too! yessss! same here, number is not updated on ups yet. cant wait!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
good work.. success all around.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irmoballen:
Yeah...it'll probably do that until tonight - mine took until about midnight last night to show anything on the UPS site.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
Assuming nothing goes wrong twixt now and Friday (it should take 2 days to get here from Abt) I'll definitely owe the OP a beer! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
Glad you guys got the numbers!

That will have to wait till i move back to Europe, as I am only 20 right now. Also, turning 18 in Europe and moving to the States when you are 20 really really blows.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
yep +1

i never thought i would get this from a random retailer, haha. time to cancel my bestbuy,expansys,amazon orders........

actually, i might keep my amazon order until i get this in my hands:D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
That's what I'm doing. Since it's so far out for delivery from Amazon I'm keeping the pre-order until I have this in hand and working order. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] oasis9389:
i live in nj.. this thing will prolly just miss getting here by xmas eve.. it will most likely be here monday.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jim_0068:
Yup, but don't know how well they do that for out of towers. I make them price match stuff all the time. They even price match Amazon, but note actual Amazon not some partner through Amazon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
cool, mines show up on the UPS site now. now i can relax and wait :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DarthSilentBob:
yeah mine popped up last night and when I checked this morning it's on track to be here tomorrow!!! WOOOOO!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] digimuzik:
Head's up... don't expect anything to arrive on Monday... federal holiday and all. (One of my pre-orders said Monday too, before I realized this)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] franky_402:
Just got off the phone, so happy, got a floor model 32 champagne over night after taxes comes out to 507.55 Christmas couldn't be better this year
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] irmoballen:
I got mine in today - everything is great! GPS = perfect (locked on instantly), WiFi - exact same dB readings as my Flyer and Galaxy Nexus, Screen Bleed - very, very minimal - same as my ipad and Galaxy tab 10.1

All in all - I hope every one in this shipment was as problem free as mine has been!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Whitepants:
Sounds good! :D

Just wish i didn't have to wait until Christmas to get my hands on the tablet and not just the box :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tlo729:
IN STOCK

Call now, I just ordered one with confirmation, shipping tomorrow, 32Gb gray

1-888-228-5800
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I just called and according to my sales rep, I'll have a champagne 32GB shipping tomorrow. He couldn't upgrade to faster than ground, but at this point I'll take it.

Of course, I also won't believe it until I have a tracking number. But it's the most positive thing that's happened so far in this entire mess.

Update: for the first time in any of my orders, I actually have a pre-authorization for the entire amount. I know that means little--lots of people have had the same--but for me it's a first. I'm going to take that as a good sign, just because I want to take SOMETHING as a good sign.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
They are sold out once again
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
So, got a tracking number for my order that was supposed to ship today, but UPS still doesn't show it in their system. Why does that make me a little worried?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
UPS finally has my Prime and is shipping it ground with expected delivery next Friday. I was hoping to get one early in my week off to give me something new to play with, but oh well. I'll survive.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] drstk:
i was to focus on my prime from abt and i forgot to cancel my amazon order and it actually shipped ><
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipzoomeroo:
I will never use the Messages app to send a picture (yes, never. I don't have an SMS plan) so I'd like to be able to remove it from the sharing list from the Gallery. Is there any way to choose which apps show up in that sharing list?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
Only by removing the apps. You could go into the Messaging App Info page, and Disable it. As a warning, though, Messaging is one of the core OS apps, and disabling it could possibly cause instability. I've never had any reason to try it, but just keep it in mind in case you have issues; you can always re-enable it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipzoomeroo:
Any idea if this is the kind of thing a custom ROM could enable: choosing which apps show up in the menu?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
Anything's possible; that could certainly happen. I don't see it as being a very widely anticipated feature, though. Just out of curiosity, I'm not sure if you noticed, but after you've used the sharing menu a few times, it shows only your top 3 apps (technically 2nd, 3rd, and 4th) that you've used for sharing, and then a "See All..." button below it. Also, your foremost sharing app will show up as an icon to the right of the sharing icon. Example below, with imgur, Messaging, Kik, and Gmail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lynseyw:
Just use Quickpic is is really good. I use it as my main gallery. Also has the option to hide stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zipzoomeroo:
Thanks for the ideas.
