[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sectachrome:
Got mine last night from Best Buy (Ordered 12/23). Here are my first impressions.

Ill preface this by saying Ive never had a tablet and dont even know if Ive ever even used one for more than 5 seconds. I had been thinking about getting one, and when I saw that Best Buy was taking orders, I jumped on it figuring I could always return it. I was a little worried reading about all the issues on the forums before I got it.

Build quality is nice, Im impressed. I havent had any ports fall out or cables breaking. The thing just looks nice, and feels quality in your hands. I did notice people complaining that the screen was coming off in the top left. Mine has this "issue", though I dont think its really an issue. The little gap that seems "unglued" is directly above the volume rocker and HDMI port. The screen isnt coming up here if you look at it from the side, but if you push on it theres a little give. I think this is just the way its built, there probably isnt anything to adhere the screen to in that little spot where the buttons are. No big deal to me, I think everyones overreacting about it. I havent seen any backlight bleeding issues either, and I was looking for it. Another issue people have been talking about is the Asus logo "glitching" on the boot screen. I looked for this too and it doesnt happen on mine.

The screen is amazing. Not much else to say about it. Its super clear and bright.

My wifi works fine. I get a crappy signal because I live in a basement, but the speeds were very close to what I was getting on my HTC Incredible and Macbook Pro all side by side. I tried using the GPS for about 1 minute, unsurprisingly I didnt get a signal because Im in a basement. Ill test it more later, but honestly if this thing didnt come with GPS at all I wouldnt really care.

I played some GTA III on it, it was awesome. The controls are much better than I would have expected, though I think it would still suck on a small phone screen. Really badass that a full game like this can be played on a tablet, I hope more stuff like this comes out.

I only briefly toyed with the camera, seems more than adequate. Pretty quick shutter speed.

Asus gives you a little microfiber in the box, and it wiped off all finger prints and smudges quickly and easily.

The keyboard is pretty annoying to use in landscape as you might expect. I picked up SwiftKey Tablet X for like $5, and its a big improvement. The split keyboard is great, and visually the keyboard is much nicer looking than the stock stuff.

As far as speed and performance, it seems nice to me but as I mentioned before this is the first tablet Ive ever used. Its a little laggy at times, but nothing terrible at all and could just be the nature of Honeycomb. I cant wait to get ICS on this thing, its only going to get better!

Overall Im really impressed. This is a badass gadget. I dont think Ill be returning mine :)

Hey dear all,

I was one of the first one to install Yuki's Mango ROM...today I tried to unlock my SD card with a Nokia phone to no avail. Its asking for a password.

Whats the easiest way to unlock my SD card now?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bartass127:
So

you will use your sd card in another phone ?

I prefer miniTool partition wizard, it's easy, free program for windows.

Just plugin your sd card into computer, open this program, delete all partition, add new "Fat32", label primary, and all space for FAT32, then hit enter and plug out :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] KB24@CL:
thanks but the card is locked....how does my computer recognize it?

I have an old Nokia phone but it won't format the card because it says I need a password...a password that I do not have.

I need to completely delete everything on it or else my SD card is useless. I can't use it anywhere.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bartass127:
Your pc will just see, that sd card is blocked or sth.

But dont worry, just open the program.

Every time i change wp7 to android i use this.

Sry for my poor english ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] thesniffer:
Just ignore password request and you'll get the option to format the card, just as simple as this mate ;)

P.S. Another opportunity is to install DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab through the WP7-Update-Cab-Sender within Yuki's ROM and then choose to unlock the card :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] KB24@CL:
Thanks guys. For whatever reason my PC doesn't find it...and my Nokia won't let me format it. Unfortunately I don't have the Yuki rom anymore. Now it's on stock rom...maybe I'm doing something wrong ? :-S

I am completely new to android and am getting my android phone on Sunday.

[1] I have visited the Webpage of Android market and tried installing sum free apps. It tells me to sign-in. When I sign-in I get the message “There are no Android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account.”

Now, how can I add a phone to this account? I tried in settings but no option to add a phone anywhere…

[2] Once, I sort the Login issue, I believe it directly sends App to phone. Now wht if I have to download App/games on my PC and transfer it to my mobile manually. I am saying this as I don’t have any data plan on my mobile and I prefer to download to PC 1st and later to mobile.

PS: I am an orkut user and hence I am using the username/pass of orkut. Do I need to create a new acc. For my phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
when you get your phone it will prompt you to set up or sign in with a googlemail account. Once youve done this you will have a phone associated with that email. You can either then use the market on the phone or sign in with this email on the web based market. On the web based one when you click install it will automatically install on your phone.

Im not aware of anyway of downloading from official market to your pc to transfer manually. You can do this with some other programs, i.e some games companies let you download it to pc but to my knowledge thats not possible on the official market. I dont use the web based one a lot though so i may be wrong

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] splinter82:
Okay, well you can't 'add' a phone to your account - you need to get the phone and enter your account details into the phone, then it will show up on the Android Marketplace website.

You're right in thinking it sends the apps straight to the phone, and I don't know of any way to download an app to your PC to transfer to the phone. However your phone will have a wi-fi feature, so just connect it to your local wifi hotspot and you can download the apps without having to pay data charges :)

I'm afraid I have no idea about the Orkut thing, though...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garoto1973:
I agree with the other posters, just use wifi and you will be fine! If you dont have a wifi hotspot just go to a restaurant or mall that has free wifi and setup your phone there.

You will need a gmail account to activate the market on your phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnarfsan:
Googles Android market does not provide a way for you to download apps to your PC. You can however copy them from the phone if you gain root access.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
i wont bother next time then :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sleepycat3:
You can copy them out even without root access. Just use a file explorer like File Expert which lets you back up the apps to APK files.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craige:
Thx for the above replies :-)

I have some new queries, if I change my phone/hard reset, whts the way to install all paid app without downloading again? – As the above member have suggested I have to take backup using something like “File Expert” ? Does it take backup on to PC ?

For any purchased app/games the developer provide update for how long? Where to see this info.

Rooting a phone can ever- delete Messages, Phone numbers, installed Apps ?

As Note is having Wifi-Direct, can i just use a "USB-Wifi dongle" on my PC and connect to my phone OR will i have to buy a router compulsary ? ( I intend to play big files more than 4GB and surf internet )
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timal47:
it's just a mega synchro...

If you synchro your google account, you have contact, mail, ... etc in distant server, so when you flash or reset data when you put again your google account it take all back automaticly.

You can use WiFi for shared files with your computer. It's better with a router but it's possible with dongle.

I finally got an upgrade yesterday. Went through the whole process but the phone still shows 4.0.1. What's the deal?

It is possible it could be the volume bug fix, how big was the update and what building number is it?

[LG Revolution] willzzz88:
Hey guys,

Was wondering what are the hours you people are getting on a rooted LG Revolution with a recent build, crap turned off when you don't need to (idle, and juice-defender app) like my old Droid 1 (OG).

I was getting 8 hours on my Droid 1.

I right now upgraded to a Samsung Stratosphere which doesn't even have A-GPS so my GPS fixes take FOREVER in-doors! (Yes I was in a store out of state and my Droid OG died!)

And the 480p versus 720p screen and no HDMI and no dual-core.

I mean the sales-person @ VZW while on vacation (yes my dev mind was off!) sold me into it because my Droid 1 ran out of battery (died hard, car charger wouldn't work) until I got back to the hotel.

I mean the Samsung Stratosphere (VZW Galaxy S II basically) has a QWERTY keyboard, is nice and uses VIA7.1+CMC220 which apparently isn't Qualcomm and has longer talk time (8 versus 7.1) and other features which leads to the increased battery life.

I am on day 2 of 14 day return. Damn-it!

I didn't know LTE battery life drains like ****!

And VZW's dual radio approach!

Seriously I need to investigate AT&T HSPA+ 4G and their single radio LTE approach on their phones (am I right!?)

Also Qualcomm's MDM9615 and other chips:

When is a product going to be out that is going to be SINGLE RADIO CDMA2000 and LTE!?

I don't care about simultaneous voice & data that much if i get 40% longer battery life.
[LG Revolution] willzzz88:
Also based on what I'm reading based on current iterations text messaging is over the 1X network correct?

The LTE is for PURE INTERNET!?

UPDATE: Looks like from a test plan on Google/supplier/public its SMS over IPv6 over LTE.

So the SMS *IS* IPv6 over IMS.

Just the 1X voice calls radio and a separate chip.
[LG Revolution] KaneOfMars:
Well, I'm running GingerVolt 1.3 w/ v6 supercharger, blitzkrieg kernel @ 1.2ghz, and setCPU.

On a day where I have access to wifi I get about 12hrs with moderate use. 14hrs with lite use.

At work I get about 8-10hrs (no wifi access in a 4G network) with moderate use. About 5hrs if I have to rely on GPS navigation through out the day.

I did notice a slight improvement in battery life after installing chainfire 3D, about 2% per hour.

From My Bryce Device
[LG Revolution] spc_hicks09:
I've got an extended life battery and here's my battery life summary:

Light Usage: 24-26 hours

Moderate Usage: 16-18 Hours

Heavy Usage: 8-10 hours

Light usage is obvious, I barely ever use the phone. Maybe a few texts throughout the day, check facebook and google+ a few times.

Moderate usage: Tapatalk app usage, facebook, google+, twitter, emails, texts, calls, theme testing, flashes.

Heavy Usage: All of the above, plus playing N.O.V.A., Brothers In Arms for hours lol.

I'm currently running gingervolt 1.3, blitzkrieg kernal 1.0 @ 1.3ghz, upgraded supercharger plus bulletproof & nitro, KAK, and adrenaline shot. I also have the extended battery as well.

[LG Revolution] thrasherht:
Ok not to be a little off topic. You only got 8 hours out of your droid 1???? I got 28hours out of mine one time when I didn't use it, and I normally got about 15 hours out of it with moderate use.

On topic:

I just got my revo yesterday, so I haven't had a ton of time to play with it. I unplugged mine this morning at 4:30am before I left for work. Wifi off, 4g on. I had to plug it in before noon because I got down to about 35% by 11am.
[LG Revolution] majorpay:
This has been my experience as well. The ROMs for this phone don't offer deep sleep, and perhaps you wouldn't really want it if they did. My experience with deep sleep (introduced in CM 7.1) has been hit or miss. Imagine your phone going into deep sleep and every once in a great while, you can't get it to turn back on :D (sleep of death)

I'm having a nightmare with Samsung UK repair centre. Could do with some advice...

I'll try to keep this short. Basically my phone has had reboot problems since I bought it back in May. It would reboot itself while sat on a desk or in my pocket (on standby). Every now and then it would get stuck in the boot animation loop and require a factory reset. It went back to Carphone warehouse once for a repair, where they flashed it and replaced the battery, but this did nothing to fix the problem, and after a few months of perseverance with the rebooting ( I couldn't bring myself to wait another 4 weeks repair time...) I had had enough and contacted Samsung direct as their repair turnaround is shorter, and it went back to them for repair. I got the phone back today and they are claiming the fault is water damage and as such the warranty is void. This is bulls##t and the phone has not been exposed to any more moisture than any phone is exposed to in general use.

They could not give any sort of detail on the water damage, but suggested that it may be discolouration on the motherboard. I recall in the first few weeks of owning the phone the phone got very hot (too hot to touch against your shin hot). Could this display similar colouration to water damage?

I seem to be banging my head against a brick wall with the repair centre call centre and Samsung customer support are not offering any resolution options. I'm loathed to write off my warranty and a £500 phone cost. So any advice would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skimminstones:
what moisture do you expose your phone to in general use? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pixate:
Humidity in the air (not much of that in the UK...) Kettle boiling in the kitchen. That sort of thing... The point I'm making is that it's not been exposed to moisture beyond that expected in normal use, something the phone should be resistant to.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Its probably the usual condensation fault across all makes of phone its a known warranty reject .

Water damage is shown by on-board indicators .

One Samsung have refused warranty fair enough you can proceed by writing directly to Samsung UK stating your case .Or pay for a specialist phone engineers report and if they find no water damage then go back to Samsung .

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aceofclubs:
Do you have a telecommunications ombudsmen in your country?

If so contact them and put your case forward.

I bet after they contact your carrier, retail outlet or Samsung you get a new phone.

I know a mate who got a new phone from both the carrier and the manufacturer.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pixate:
Thanks, yeah we have Ofcom in the uk, and also a trading standards organisation. I May have to get them involved if I can't work something out with Samsung. The fault I have problems with has been on the phone since I got it out of the box, and certainly isn't water damage. Trouble is if there is some sort of liquid detection inside and it's changed colour, how can I prove that the phone was only subjected to normal use, and not exposed to moisture?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Its not a network problem so OFCOM is no use . The phone is not part of your network contract .

Under UK consumer law your supplier of the phone is liable for warranty .You have since been to Samsung who in law have no responsibility bar their extended warranty .

Samsung have said no its a user fault we are not responsible so its up to you to prove them wrong .

Trading standards will have experience of the water damage issue and may be of help .

I've got an issue where all four capacitive buttons will not work in portrait mode but will work in landscape mode with the keyboard out. I've found some people had issues when they first got their phones but I've had mine for about 14 months and this just started happening. I'm on RandomRom right now with a fresh flash but I had this same Rom before I re-flashed and didn't have the issue. Also, the capacitive buttons used to work in CWM but they don't anymore. I'm going to try the new RandomRom later this weekend but I was curious if anyone else had this issue? I'm leaning towards a hardware problem even though it does work with the keyboard out but also the software has essentially remained unchanged so I'm lost.

I recommmend doing a clean install of whatever rom you want to use. An updated kernel should be included with the rom.
