Just ordered the 32gb Gray...

"Order in process of being fulfilled. Estimated arrival date: 12/27/2011 - 12/27/2011"

Come on Christmas Spirit!

Kinda doubt it will work, but what the heck, I have nothing to lose!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
My order email said the same thing when I placed my order to swap for my Champagne pre-order yesterday at about 12:30pm PST. Today, my Web status is (same as it was immediately after ordering):

Some other people have received shipping info, and so I'm assuming that no stock was actually available for my order. If you just ordered this morning, I'd say odds are against you actually getting a unit shipped to you. At all.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ktulu0421:
I do realize that this is most likely what happened...like I said before, if it was my cash I would be waiting till this whole thing died down.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] labbbby:
This...

Good summary and the right attitude. I am in the US until the 31, would really like to seee mine on 27th but I am really not that optimistic.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dsmitty166:
At the very least, I will complain hardcore for this screw up and demand some sort of free gift card :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr Zulu:
It was NOT a new page. Same address as it's been all along. I know because all I had to do was refresh the page I already had opened (had a page from each location open that I'd periodically refresh throughout the day). It wasn't until later that I found out that people were having a hard time finding it through Best Buy's web structure.

All Best Buy did was remove links to that page from the web structure. It's why I could access it simply by refreshing. It's why others could find it via google within minutes of the change (google doesn't update THAT fast). It's probably why instocknow.net was able to see that it was available because it was probably working off a direct link.

NOT a new page. IF simply removing the page from the site architecture and keeping the same web address was Best Buy's means of making it only available to champaign pre-orders, that was really amateur.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GCurry:
I was one of those who ordered champagne and converted a few hours after this email came out. I got a concession on shipping and order ack email said delivery between 12/27 and 12/27. But no followon email yet, and I have a feeling this scenario is more in line with Best Buy's level of online sophistication. I'd like to be surprised, but I believe in Murphy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I'll buy that. "Really amateur" would fit perfectly...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr Zulu:
Didn't really mean to come off as strong as that post sounded. Just keep seeing it posted over and over again that it was a special page or special link that got 'leaked' in every forum I've looked at. Saw an OP of a thread in one forum that was apologizing in multiple posts cause he felt so guilty for unwittingly letting people know something he stumbled upon and didn't know was supposed to be a secret. IF this was supposed to be a secret, it wouldn't have mattered with the way it was done, we were all going to figure it out.

And I think that's a big IF right now. I've handled a few small time websites (small enough I wasn't paid for the effort) and even I know that just removing links from the site architecture and keeping the address the same isn't going to work. Surely Best Buy has better experienced and smarter web people than me? It's really hard for me to believe that's how Best Buy planned it. Sounds more likely that there's simply a website error of some sort which could be taken a number of ways as far as what's really going on, for better or worse for everyone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
I doubt it's an error, but even if so I don't Best Buy is going to reject the orders. They could merely be counting the field to see how many potential buyers they have out there.

I'm also doubting the idea that the system may be overwhelmed with orders for tablet now that link has been active for a full day, the Transformer Prime is popular, but it's not THAT popular where as to Apple, Samsung, or SONY level of product launch hype.

I feel ASUS really low-balled the production of this tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr Zulu:
I'm hoping that the system is not being overwhelmed with orders and that's why the page is still up with "add to cart". However, that would imply there's an error in that there is no link to that page via Best Buy's normal web architecture. The fact that many of us have had the order progress beyond the point of a cancellation option supports this idea.

I'm a bit worried that they have none and that no one is really supposed to be seeing that page and making orders. But that would be a web error too. The fact that none of us has gotten a tracking number yet supports this version. After all, I usually get my tracking number long before the shipper actually has possession of the package and usually within hours of making the order.

Then there's part of me that is just in wonder if Best Buy's web people are stupid enough to think that just removing links of from the site architecture and leaving the web address the same was a good measure in keeping orders for a select group. This is the only way I can see it as not being a web error.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seigex:
The problem with that version of it is the web page no doubt generated an order id, and obviously added to their pending order's database. With it still being up, there's no doubt been at least 100 orders (most likely many more) that have been processed and sent to the warehouses for processing. The fact that there's some sort of change (cancellable to uncancellable) says that the system at least accepts the orders as being valid ... (not implying they actually have stock) someone should have noticed if it were invalid and turned off the order website or changed all orders to back-ordered...

.. i guess the reality is we won't know until at least the 26th if not the 27th
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] KGB-SPY:
I hope it's really in stock

When I placed my order yesterday, I tried to put 999 items in cart and it let me to do so. I just tried again few minutes ago and got an error:

" Transformer Prime TF201 Tablet with 32GB Memory has a quantity limit of 1 per order. Please enter a new quantity for this item."

So, I'm trying to be optimistic and still hope that my order and yours will arrive before the new year.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seigex:
yeah last night i got "limit of 999 per order" error when i tried to put 1000 in .. put 999 in and made it all the way to checkout before i cancelled
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Just to reiterate: they received 7500 Gray Primes from ASUS. About 6000 of those were taken by Gray preorders, and it was intended that the remaining 1500 go to cover Champagne preorders. They anticipated that these would be sufficient. At least, that's the email I got from Best Buy corporate.

I'd love to know how many orders were placed by people out of turn, so to speak. I can easily see it being more than 1500.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
The CSR I finally got help from confirmed that only Champagne pre-orders should have used that SKU to order the grey model. If you look at the SKU it is actually a different one then the original grey SKU. I know I said earlier in this thread that I hoped that everyone's that order using this SKU that wasn't supposed to should get there ordered cancelled. Even with the mean comments I stick by my guns. BB screwed up again so hopefully they fix their mistake. We shouldn't go back to the end of the line due to BB/ASUS's mistakes. I think that is what a community like XDA is really for, helping each other out. Spitting out venom because you got one over on the system and messed over others that actually ordered it before you is what I think XDA is not about. You don't have to agree but heck if you got one over on others that pre-ordered and missed out because you took one of their allotments then do this. Pat yourself on the back, post a heck of a lot more posts on here (yeah stab at one of the comments at me, pass someone in your mini whilst holding your new tablet out the window waiving it around, and have a merry freaking X-mas.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
I just went to this link and attempted to add one to my cart. They disabled the button loo. it still says add to card but it is just a picture now :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seigex:
just added one to cart and went all the way to checkout, still working for me
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
Still works for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] detta123:
Ordered mine a few hours ago. Could cancel, but checking now 7:36 EST it can not be canceled.

There is a god!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
Well idk what was going on but I had put my computer to sleep and check the forums on my phone saw you guys were still able to do it. I hopped back on my computer and ordered one. Estimated Arrival: 12/27-12/27/2011 Paid for the express shipping. And to those who said this is for people who ordered already I gave this over a day to be up before I bought one so they had plenty of time in my book.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bittercold:
I can respect you for giving the people a little time. Thanks for that Haro.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] polbit:
Just for ****s and giggles I ordered one too, and got a confirmation, delivery 12/27/11, and my cc was authorized...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Unfortunately, I'm not convinced these are actually going to ship. Mine from yesterday at 12:30 is still sitting in the same status, and I can think of no reason it didn't ship yesterday except that they oversold the ones they had left after filling the Gray preorders.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr Zulu:
No "venom" coming from me. Like I pointed out earlier in this thread several times, it was the same web address the whole time. I wasn't trying to exploit anything and I didn't even use 'leaked' info to get the order. Hitting 'refresh' on the web page I already had open showed the "add to cart" button. I got excited and it worked (for now, still no tracking number). It wasn't until later people started speculating it was for champaign pre-orders. Really, what good is creating a new sku number if you put it on the same web address as the old sku number? I got to ask because I look at model number when I'm ordering online, not sku number at all.

Really, I understand the bitterness though. I ordered from OD and was put on backorder and then a few days later people ordered from OD and got shipments... I'm still on backorder with OD. I don't blame or hold any bitterness to the people that ordered a few days later though. It's not like they said, "Hey, lets take this one that Mr Zulu wanted." Just bitter toward how OD handled it.

Btw, if this developement from yesterday was indeed meant for champaign reorders and this is how it was handled (with the same web address), then whoever is in charge of the website should be fired. Really, REALLY dumb. No way in hell that was going to stay secret if one could hit it without even trying to exploit!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blackinjun:
Actually 4038674 is the sku they've had the whole time. I memorized it with all the times i called and recited it to the people instore, now if you're saying that people have ordered a different one than that with this link i can't speak to that, mine was 4038674 ordered yesterday.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
I agree I ordered it in just in case. I have been on back order with office depot for a long tome and they have no idea what is going on
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
are you serious?

if what you say happens. This is what I will do on here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ViralCipher:
Seems odd that they are still taking orders though. I highly doubt they even have the stock for the number of orders they must have received, so far. I ordered at 8:57pm EST and checked status at 10:30pm EST and I can no longer cancel my order, so I will have to wait and see what happens because I cannot get my money back until Bestbuy cancels my order if it doesn't really go through. I came to this thread and found out about the champagne exchange thing and I am more worried now. I found out about BestBuy having stock from Google News alerts on the transformer prime...this is messed up!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jonalisa:
Just thought I'd mention that I put one in my cart before calling Best Buy and had a long conversation with a woman who seemed to have first hand info about the inventory. Took several minutes of conversation before I realized we weren't seeing the same page. Hers said "coming soon" with no way to put it in the cart. She said they currently had no stock and she knew because she saw the order. I told her I had one in my cart. I didn't want to go through with the purchase without some verification of when they were getting it. She said, "don't take it out of your cart unless you are sure you don't want it, because I am looking at 0 inventory in the system".

I gave her the google search info, and then she was able to see the same page and add a prime to cart- but interesting that the BB call center was seeing a different screen than those calling in, which was why some just seemed so determined to be unhelpful.

After hanging up I decided to try it anyway and I was able to order it, select 1 day ship and I got a delivery date of 12/27. Today the status says "can't be cancelled".
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MatthiasMD:
When you search at bestbuy you only see the champagne... and that's what the cs was looking at... it happened with me too and I hand to explain that I want the grey one not the champange and that's when she said she didn't even see a grey one and she has to assume there is no stock
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
ditto...ordered yesterday, still "in progress" while others have ordered after me and already have estimated ship dates? what gives...i'm afraid they are going to be on the next batch of cancelled orders from best buy.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
Before I ordered mine I called in to see how many they had left. This was around 6pm EST. The lady I talked to said they had stock of grey but not champagne. I said alright and hung up didn't talk about anything else. I debated the order for about 10 minutes and then ordered. My order has changed from being able to cancel to can't be canceled since I checked about an hour ago via the Best Buy app on my phone. I assume this means that my order went through and I will be receiving my tablet around the 27 :) I have been proven wrong before though. aka Office Depot order when they said I would receive it the next day and I still have yet to see it and they have no idea when they are getting any in. Actually told me to call Asus when I talked to them today:p

ASUS Transformer Prime: Some to Ship on Monday from Best Buy

By Ceylan Yeginsu: Subscribe to Ceylan's RSS feed

December 24, 2011 5:05 PM EST

Most ASUS Eee Pad Transformer Prime enthusiasts will get their hands on the tablet in 2012, but customers who order the 32GB Amethyst Gray version from Best Buy could get it as early as Monday, according to Android Police.

Best Buy is yet to confirm the new stock rumors, but according to Android Police's report, shipping for the Amethyst iGray Edition priced at $499.99 is much faster.

Pre-orders for the new tablet opened last week, but most ASUS hopefuls received a string of emails from Best Buy and Amazon reporting delays. While Best Buy said it would try and get the tablets shipped by early 2012, Amazon reported that they would not be shipping for another 4-7weeks.

http://www.ibtimes.com/articles/272498/20111224/asus-transformer-prime-ship-monday-best-buy.htm

EDIT: From the source linked, Android Police, whom updated their intial story:

It appears this may have been a special offer limited to select customers who preordered a different color that was delayed, and that the web page was set up to never run out of stock. The shipping date may be completely wrong, as well. We're waiting on a response from Best Buy to confirm, but given that it's a holiday, we're not expecting it until Monday. We advise you not to order.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Haro912:
I asked the lady I talked to today if she knew when they would be instore and she said they had no news on when they would be in the store. Not sure how much it is worth but idk about them being instore Monday... There is still a lot of pre orders that happened been filled for them to go to sit on shelves already... Just my two pennies. I'm for sure going to go check my local Best Buy on Monday though. lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] knives of ice:
from experience there is little/zero chance most of these orders will ship from best buy. they have pulled this **** on me multiple times.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Bizdady:
I'm give them till Wednesday or Thursday before i call and ask for a refund. If I'm going to wait i might as well get from Amazon and save a bit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jetbruceli:
Yeah had to order mine through BB because Amazon wont ship to Apo box. I am so excited!

This will be the only device on Android I wont root!

For you guys with Galaxy Nexus on AT&T, which baseband do you have it installed? UG or stock XX? Just wondering which baseband offer best signal quality on AT&T.

I had UGKK7 up until last night and I like it overall but I just found out yesterday while going out with family in downtown Seattle area that my data connection suck. Basically it is really really slow or I get no data connection when I try to browse. At the very spot that I had very slow data connection or get no data connection error, I was able to use my wife iPhone 4 to browse internet fine. Although a little slower to usual, it was able to get on internet and browse fine.

So I was wondering which baseband you guys using on AT&T network?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Noodles5666:
I am currently using XXKK1 and have no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] divinewisdom:
stock here. faster down and up and the wife's iphone. make sure you are previsioned for the 4G data plan.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
Not on AT&T but on T-Mobile, XXKK6 for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aznx25:
XXKK1 on AT&T with no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Waitzar:
Thanks guys. I just installed XXKK1 this afternoon. So far everything is running fine. I need to take a trip to downtown or mall setting where there are lots of people to really test this out. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] OJ in Compton:
Is there any way to do this if I currently have an iPhone unlimited data plan on my account?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ztm.000:
XXKK6 and my performance dramatically increased over XXKK1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] divinewisdom:
hmm, best bet is to borrow a friend who has one of the AT&T 4G phone (inspire, infused, atrix). pop in your sim, call att to have them grandfather you to the unlimited 4G smart phone plan.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
Currently using XXKK6 and it stinks over K1. My uploads are about the same, but downloads are about half.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enaybee:
UGKK7 right now. But these modems are region sensitive so you have to trial and error to find the best one for you.

Initially stock XXKK1 didn't give me good signal strength however data speeds were consistent within 2.0 - 2.5 mbps. With UGKK7 signal strength is a lot better than XXKK1 in most areas where I usually go (30 mile radius from Philly) however my data speeds are not consistent at all ... now I see anywhere from 700 kbps all the way to 6.5 mbps.

I am sticking with UGKK7 as it gives me the best signal (min 4 bars) and data speed (2.0 - 2.5 mbps) at home ... :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GeezyF.Ladies:
so jealous I'm saving for a galaxy nexus right now lol got my skyrock stuck in bootloop :mad: anyway I want a nexus so bad wondering if I will tell the difference coming from a LTE going to a HSPA+ ? oh and my dad is also a traveling man:cool:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
That's awesome about your Dad, heck there's a good chance we've crossed paths ;) In New Braunfels I get anywhere from 6-11 on downloads, which is plenty fast for me. Fyi, I'm actually the admin of one of the largest Texas Mason websites: www.masonsoftexas.com there are a handful of others on xda as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] XAviierG:
Anybody using The Ugk ones on ATT?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cLOUDFAn:
XXKK6 here

if you want to flash custom rom and stuff

i think u have to have XXKK6 or later baseband

tried UGKK6, UGKL1 and XXKL1

not much difference honestly

so went back to stock XXKK6
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Maryushi3:
The title says pretty much everything. Example: tap and hold on the desktop, select Widgets and try scrolling - it lags so much on stock FW.

However on GingerReal 1.4 it was smooth and GR ROM is based on stock FW (XWKS9)

My current FW is XXKPP
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] zizibuba:
I also have XXKPP and this problem is kinda annoying. I remember stock 2.3.4 KPH had smooth scrolling. It would be really great if someone could help. BTW I have CF-ROOT and ext4.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Maryushi3:
JupaHSS doesn't help and JupaEngine makes my Ace bootloop.

Maybe we should ask makers of GingerReal how they made it smooth?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Turn off gpu rendering in build.prop.

Same way as enabling crt.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] zizibuba:
I remember every custom ROM having smooth scrolling by the way. Can you explain how to edit build.prop?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] scoffyburito:
I fixed it by changing window managers max events i think

I installed K9 Mail. wow am I impressed with this. I mean really impressed.

I have 5 issues. I am wondering if there is a FORUM anywhere for K9 ??

#1 Sound notifications. it plays one for EVERY single message that comes in. is there a setting anywhere (I looked did not find one) to make it only announce ONCE until I check the mail like gmail does?

#2 When I click the icon to open K9 it goes to the menu with 3 options.

Unified Inbox

All Message

gmail (my account)

I never EVER want to see this screen. now it has an option to check for "goto unified" when you starup but it appears to have no effect.

when I click the "notification" in the status bar it goes directly to unified.

but when I click a shortcut to the k9 application 100% of the time it loads that menu first and I have to then click Unified Inbox to goto mail.

anyway to fix this?

#3

I have mine set for VERY TINY text. I LOVE that I get so much info on the screen really love it.

problem is I can not tell the difference between "read" and "not read" messages. is there anyway to differenciate it more?

I am using the dark theme.

there is a difference. read is offwhite unread is bright white but its VERY hard to make this distinction on the screen at this font size.

#4 some message have a "gray" highlight over the entire message entry on the list. What does this mean?

in relation to #3 this would be PERFECT for distinguishing read and unread. ie grey highlight for unread no grey highlight for read (this is now how its being used now)

#5 There is a BLUE BAR at the top that says Unified Inbox # etc.. etc..

is there anyway to remove this? its useless info I just don't need and would rather it goaway :-) (I could see it being useful if you had multiple mail boxes but I don't)

any help would be greatly appreciated.

besides these quirks (and they are rather minor quirks for the most part) I and FLAT OUT impressed. Hard core. with this program.
