Remember that photos tend to exaggerate that kind of issues. They do white balance on the photos and contrast enchancement which can really screw the comparison up. You are also viewing it on your LCD screens which also have some temperature set.

which is which? :P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayvus:
The difference is easy to tell because 1) he said original THEN prime 2) and the 2nd one has a yellow tint, as previously seen, the 1st has a blue tint, as previously seen.

True but because the ??? I thought he meant it was the other way round with his specimens :P

The screen on my Prime is bright white. I don't have a yellow hue. Overall my Prime is functioning very well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xAnimal5:
Is the yellow really that bad as the pics show?

My Galaxy Note has a bluish tint, but it is not visible unless it's screen is off. Is the yellow really that noticeable? Mine is coming tomorrow, can't wait

R.I.P Prime :(

Unforchantly, I had to return my Prime because my Screen issue! I have to wait until they have it in Store to make sure the next one does don't have any problem even if I have to wait until January..

But I'm really glad to test it and done with WOW factor and make sure this is what I want (need) for personal/Work use.

Someone needs to preset white balance with grey card and then take pictures, ideally comparing to some other tablet. Dslr and advanced pns camera owners, tuck in :).

Mine had yellowish/bad colors when i first got it.

Two days later I cleaned my screen with LCD cleaning solution and microfiber cloth.

No yellow no more.

lucky you! I miss my Prime. poor guy, I believe it's in the back room at BB with the geek squad touching it and they dripping there saliva all over it... I can't think about it any more :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Andreas527:
My also had/has the yellow tone. Had a Galaxy Tab 10.1 before and that screen I think is cold,blue white and shows to much color. Back to Prime Now.

After a factory reset on day 1 I noticed that it was less yellow. Now after 2 days of use in think it has less yellow then on day one. Now it look more like it's set to "warm" like you find on TVs.

Show the screen to a friend and he didn't see/think that it was yellow or that it looked weird only thing he said was that it looked awesome and that this screen is really good.

Beside the warm/yellow touch the screen on Prime is really good. Games and pictures looks much more sharp/natural and better then it does on the Galaxy Tab 10.1.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Here's my take... I need to pull out one of my better cameras, because I can't get a representative shot with my Epic Touch. Bottom line for me is that the Prime's screen is MUCH better than my wife's Galaxy Tab 10.1 (which is too cold, whites are very blue) and my original Transformer (surprisingly, maybe even colder than the GT 10.1).

Whites are more white, and colors in general are more natural. Yes, it's warmer, but that's a very good thing in my book. It's not overly yellow _at all_. Toss in the incredibly awesome viewing angles, and the Prime's screen is by far the best aspect of it so far.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] monkey10120:
I hope the yellow hue on mine goes away like the others :-(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Delecron:
I'll light a candle for both of ours :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leoport:
I have a Galaxy tab 10 and Xoom next to my Prime and the Prime is definitely the worst of all. I'd like to believe the yellow will go away after time--but I think that might be people adapting to it.

I *do* prefer cooler temps vs. warmer temps, but this seems overly warm. Also, it's not just the temperature. The color replication is actually worse. It's flat and desaturated. I've evaluated many screens side-by-side and the Galaxy screens are vibrant and pop... super nice.

Also, the Prime has this strange interlace effect when you scroll screens with text side-to-side. I tried it on the home screens and I can see a strange (subtle) horizontal line effect on the Prime. The Galaxy is solid.

Overall, I'm pretty bummed on the screen of the prime. I read such good reviews and was expecting more. I'm very curious if these panels are sourced from different places.

Edit: I'm not sure if this tells us anything by my Touch panel version is MXT-2.0 build-179 (setting > about tablet)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jzen:
My first prime (from gamestop) had washed out colors and even my phone had a better looking screen... I got my second prime from Office Depot, so far the screen seems a lot better, Colors get better when in balanced mode after it adjusts to what you are viewing (its not instant). If you have it in low power mode, it will look washed out and yellowish (again it adjusts to what your viewing before effect takes place, its not instant).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leoport:
Maybe my panel is bad no matter what--but I've tried all the different combinations of settings and nothing really changes. I use it for hours and still nothing. My eyes adjust, yes... but when I put the Galaxy Tab next to it--reality sets in and I'm instantly reminded how weak the screen looks (compared) :-/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tnor32:
On my prime I notice a yellow, much warmer color when the IPS is turned down, but when it's turned up the hue gets colder and the color is much more vivid and contrast is much better. But again I've never compared it against a galaxy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Samsung changed the G-Tab screen design in October. I'm guessing some of you own or have seen older Tabs. Compared to the pic of the TF1 and TF2 the white balance on the G-Tab looks sort of in between.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eL_777:
So could a firmware update possibly fix some of these color issues? ..or is it dependent upon the screen and screen manufacturer?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I wasn't convinced that any Primes really had such a yellow tint until I got a replacement for one from Best Buy and the screen is decidedly yellow. I was going to decide between that one and a Champagne unit that's due to be returned by this Friday, but the screen is so much better (not as warm, but also not too cold) that I'm pretty sure I'll keep it in spite of wonky haptic feedback.

I did notice that this Champagne unit had a bit of a warmer cast until after ICS. It's not very pleasant, whereas the one with the yellow cast retained it after upgrading to ICS.

There's definitely more variability in these screens than I was willing to accept.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I noticed that if you have brightness down low and in regular ips mode, whites look a lil dirty. But as soon as you cut super ips+ on, it looks Mr. Clean white. very bright and very White. I think its just the brightness level affecting how some colors look. with brightness down low, colors aren't as vibrant although still looks good. cut the brightness up and the colors pop again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tbns:
So, anybody who originally had yellow screens notice it go away?

I just got my replacement TFP from Amazon to replace the TFP that had a screen blotch/defect. Though the replacement screen does not have any dead pixels, light bleed, or blotches, it is much much yellower than my first prime (I have them side by side - clearly the new one is yellower). If I can expect the yellow hue to go away and look like my first TFP screen, I'll keep it and be happy. Otherwise I'm not a happy camper :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Alsybub:
I fixed mine!

I rarely post on these forums but this is something I feel I have to share.

I am on my second prime. After the first one had bad light bleed and a faulty HDMI port.

The replacement TFP had a yellow hue to it from the start which has bugged me a lot. I looked for all sorts of solutions and whether it was something that may go away but ,in the past three days that I have had it, I have noticed no change.

I was thinking I would have return it again but I decided that it may be worth a wipe to see if it did anything.

I did one wipe from the settings menu and saw there was no change. I then decided to wipe it at boot.

I held down on the volume rocker at boot and chose to wipe user data. As soon as it booted I could see an improvement. I've now been using it for around an hour and I'm seeing perfect whites.

I still have my original prime that I need to send back. Before the wipe I could see a very obvious difference but now they are nearly identical.

I'm not saying this is a fix for everyone but it has definitely worked for me and I couldn't be happier with my prime now.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] pthurmond:
Hey guys, I am about to follow the root instructions found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1354487

But before I do it I want to know what features could/will be lost in doing this. Obviously the auto-update (which makes complete sense). But in general I like the interface for now. It has its drawbacks, but I like the built-in mail client and the browser is fine for the most part. In the future I might also want to try ICS on it, but for now I am happy to use the built-in interface.

I really just want to root so that I can side load apps so that I don't have to pay B&N for apps that are otherwise free on the Android Market. That and I have never been a fan of auto-updates. But I want to keep the mail client and I especially want to keep the ability to read their entire digital catalog for free while I am in a B&N store.

Hell I would like to take that a step further and get it to work outside the store if possible. But I would settle for just keeping the original feature. I tried it earlier today and I love that feature.

So I would like to know if I would lose any of those features when I root this device. Does anyone know?

Thanks,

Patrick

When you Root you can still use the stock Nook "Home" launcher. You can install a second launcher and switch between the 2 on the fly so that you have "Nook Mode" and Tablet Mode".

2 warnings:

1) when I rooted and added Gapps, something broke the stock email client and I was not able to find a quick way to fix it.

2) I have not found a way to get Android Market or side loaded apps to show up int he stock Nook "library" so they can only be accessed via the "search" function or my using an Android Launcher with a normal app drawer.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ncguy68:
I use the Nook Color App Manager to add sideloaded apps to the stock Nook home screen and/or library. It works great.

There is a detailed artile at liliputing....Do a Google search for: "How to add sideloaded apps to your NOOK Tablet home screen, app library" As a new member I can not post a direct link. Sorry.

[General Questions and Answers] quarlow:
Just from really quickly browsing that site, I would guess the Asus Eee PC version, as they (the Acer you mentioned and most Eee PCs) both should run Atom processors.

But, it looks like you can try the Live Boot option like Linux, so you can boot it up, and see how it runs. If that version doesn't run, try the laptop version.

This is all a guess, as all I did was read over the site for a few minutes. I have a Eee PC at home with a shot battery, so I may give it a try just for giggles.

[General Questions and Answers] quarlow:
You shouldn't have to do anything in the BIOS, except maybe change the boot order. And that shouldn't be a change in the settings. Most will give you a boot menu or boot order shortcut with a F-key when starting it up.

I put the laptop version on a CD, popped it in my Gateway laptop, it immediately popped up, I chose the "live" option, and I was looking at honeycomb in no time at all. I got one pop up warning I wasn't using an Asus computer, but I just had to hit okay.

Trial and error. Try one configuration and see how it goes. For the most part nothing necessarily has to be modded in the BIOS but try and see what happens.

Originally, my Arc was on 2.3.4 Stock, it is allowed for BootLoader unlocking.

I followed this guide to unlock the BootLoader

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1042978

I did Step 1, everything fine.

Then i did Step 2, then bad things starts to happen. Even at the command prompt, it state Flash is successful, my Arc got stuck at the Sony Ericsson Logo.

The Remedy I did:

I download the O2 Stock ROM from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1093523

Reinstall it using the FlashTool.

After reinstalling, I activated the SU using FlashTool.

So Far, everything is fine.

Seeing the Android is at 2.3.3, I connect using Sony Ericsson Phone Companion to attempt to update to 2.3.4.

Phone Companion complained my Firmware disable them from doing it.

Is there anywhere i can get 2.3.4?

Which then still allows me to ROOT, unlock Bootloader and subsequently, remove some of the bloated apps?

Thank you very much!

[HTC Rezound] dmeadows013:
Well, I have been in depth testing this case for the past month and a half, spending time with it off the phone and on. For those of you who don't want to read a long review and just want the verdict, here it is: THIS CASE IS AMAZING!!!

I was given the opportunity to review one of the Cruzer Lite TPU cases for our Rezound, and I am in love. I have never used a TPU case before, but I know I will be again in the future. In my review, I will cover 2 main points: Design, and Protection. Please excuse me as I do not have any pictures at this time, as I am traveling and took this opportunity to see how the phone feels without the case.

1. Design:

This case has a very good design. It is very thin, and it has generous cutouts for the power button and headset jack. My only problem with the case so far is that the volume buttons are a little difficult to press. The case feels very good in the hand, and feels much like a hard silicone case. It does not slip, does not attract lint or dust, and fits the phone perfectly. It adds minimal thickness to the phone, and comes in many cool colors. The color that I was given to review is the red version with the little Android logos printed on the back. The case looks and feels very sturdy and durable.

GRADE: 9/10 (Volume buttons can be a bit of a hassle, but you can easily cut that area out with an xacto knife.)

2. Protection:

This case offers serious protection. I would put it on the levels of the Otterbox and Speck series of cases. I constantly drop my phone, and the Cruzer Lite case has always protected the phone from receiving physical damage or damage to the internal parts (I hope ;)). The case itself also receives little to no damage.

GRADE: 10/10

So, to review:

Design grade: 9/10. Awesome looking case and feels great. Only took off the point because the volume buttons are a bit difficult to press

Protection grade: 10/10. This case offers maximum protection while providing minimal thinness to the device.

TOTAL GRADE: 9.5/10

Solid case. Great price. Great look and feel. Great protection.

I will upload some pictures when I get home from KC on Friday.

Have fun guys
[HTC Rezound] localceleb:
I would agree 100% with this review. I have the same case (different color) and I absolutely love it. Can't beat the value either. My only gripe was the volume buttons much like you said. I cut mine out with an xacto knife and wasnt happy with the outcome so I ordered another case and plan to leave the volume area alone. I have yet to drop my phone (fingers crossed) so I can't vouch for the protection, but everything else about the case is amazing. Great product.

Great review :)
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
