[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mcgrimsl:
I havn't tried the neo hybrid case yet but i currently own the Ultra Capsule case in green by SGP (search "ultra capsule skyrocket" on amazon)

This is not a hard case, but more of a rubber type. I really like it so far with the exception of the slight glitter look it has (but I don't even notice is unless the light is right). I've dropped my phone a few times and not a single mark was made.

According to amazon people are having issues with the Neo Hybrid loosening up a bit with use, so I'm not sure if it will be worth the price or not. Sorry I cant help more!

If you do end up looking into the Ultra Capsule case note that the speaker cutout on the back does not match perfectly( however i did not notice a muffled sound with the case on)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] niezek:
I have the Neo hybrid its not a bad case it has a thin profile I used it before I was able to get the otter commuter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jhvoorhies:
I'm really thinking of just saying the hell with it and getting the Otterbox Defender. I really need some good protection on this device lol.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] daystrom:
I have a Neo Hybrid on my Skyrocket. It's a nice case but as others have said, the rubber silicone part is starting to get a little loose on mine.

My wife has an SGP Linear series on her original GSII and I really like it. SGP doesn't make it for the Skyrocket however. They said if there is enough interest it's possible they may in the future.

The linear series is like the Hybrid but with a plastic back instead of the silicone rubber.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] s1lenz:
I didn't get a "perfect" transformer prime (one dead pixel and no gps) but I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. The ui is fast, everything opens up in a second, the video streaming on youtube/veetle (app)/imdb (app) is ridiculously smooth, the sound quality is loud and clear, the build is very sturdy... i could go on and on.

If you were thinking about getting one but got deterred by some of the posts on here, remember that we are early adopters. imperfections are what we put up with to be the first kids on the block with these amazing tablets. The people that are having issues are a minority: we only post to complain, never to praise. its human nature.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kjdocs:
Day one 3g xoom owner. Talk about early adopters... anyway OP is correct. Your prime is pimp and patience is a virtue
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] don_cheadle:
Problems on new releases are a must have. You'd be hard pressed to find any product with a smooth predictable release. I'm personally glad you guys bit the bullet for the rest of us to figure out whether we should buy in now or wait. The device is still very attractive. With the feature set the Transformer Prime offers, you're not going to find much better elsewhere any time soon.

However, I am incredibly upset with ASUS and their response to these complaints about buggy software, faulty design, and inoperable components. They have no right changing the feature set to suit what is currently "working," so they can avoid fixing it. I hope they wise up, otherwise people that are waiting to purchase when the bugs are worked out, like myself, might just wait until some other manufacturer delivers on our needs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] The Janitor Mop:
Whether or not people who are having issues are a minority, I'm afraid that the Prime has a greater percentage of problems than most devices. Say 35% of people may have problems (edit: this is of course a hypothetical number), and that would technically be a minority, but its still a huge problem and greater than what most other devices have. Its just my personal opinion that some of the Primes problems boil down to design faults rather than QC (while other issues definitely are QC).

Go for the Prime if you really want it. I highly suggest you take a purchasing route that allows you to easily get your money back in case you get a defective unit, though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
thanks, this thread was needed. Prime will still blow any other tablet away right now. even with its issues affecting some users. I'm just glad I didn't get a defective device with some of these issues people been describing. that's what so crazy about it. I've been here since 12/22 perfectly enjoying my experience with the Prime. haven't even touched my Ipad since. most of the stuff I had on Ipad I went on and got for Android. experience is night n day better than on my Ipad. Tegra3 is a beast!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gogol:
Well, I will wait and see the upcoming fresh batch with ICS. Probably ASUS will fix the back with some plastic patches to improve the WiFi and GPS, or totally redesign it.

Also to watch whats on CES and February Mobile World.

Glad that I live in Europe, The Prime has not been released here. Otherwise I would jump to preorder and end up disappointed.

Oh well, my Galaxy Nexus is big enough as mini tablet, and I can use my wife iPad2 .
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] U Flippin Idiot:
I have to say i had a few bugs with mine but gps locks right away and i have no dead pixels or bleeding etc... My problem was when it brought in restore from my phone an app was causing reboots and lag. I factory reset and started from scratch and now this thing is beast. I wouldn't trade this for and other tablet and I have tried about all of them. I would not let any of these reviews discourage you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mithent:
I'm pretty used to dodgy GPS on my devices (N95 - slow, no AGPS; Touch Pro - likewise; Galaxy S - awful) so my expectations are rather low tere... As long as mine has functional WiFi and no other major bugs I'm sure I'll be happy with it!

Other tablets will come out this year which will beat it on screen resolution and single/dual-threaded performance, but I'm getting this for the keyboard dock as much as anything else, so I don't think I'm going to be wishing I waited for one of those.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bestco:
i could live with certain issues like bleeding, light leaks, etc. But GPS is one of those most important features to me, seeing it not working properly is a huge disappointment.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
The way I look at it, the prime had time to get the kinks out from the Asian/American releases,

hopefully now us Europeans will get slightly revised better checked units.

Atleast I hope so..

Screen bleed never bothered me a whole lot, bad wifi is also something im used to,

no working GPS however is a bit of a disappointment because the tablet was to be my only means of navigation.

I definitely do not want a screen with ANY dead pixel though, it would drive me up the walls.

I have a laptop with one in the middle and its like it is screaming at me "look at me look at me look at me!".

But im not gonna let all these horror stories get to me,

there's still a good chance ill get a nice working unit ill be perfectly happy with.

Im gonna make sure I buy it somewhere nearby, with a good return policy though!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] blaziner18:
love this thread, i am so close to not getting this thing.

this has changed not my mind, but it helps me relax a wee bit about my purchase.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 7Bit:
+1

I own a Prime for 3 days now, no dead pixels, no GPS and wifi reception is okay imho. Nevertheless the Transformer Prime is a beautiful device: thin, ultra-fast, durable and elegant. I would buy it again :)

But:

I am really upset about Asus removing silently GPS from the specifications and I am waiting for an official statement.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
Asus cant just ignore the elephant in the room, I think we'll all have a nice handsome GPS function in icecream sandwich.

No point fixing a wagon that ll be scrapped in a week or two, right? :P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] undercover:
As much as I want it as as painful it's going to be..I'm going to wait! There, I said it, now I have to keep to my word. LOL

If Asus continues with current PR strategy (removing stuff quietly), we will see crap loads of cancellations of pre-orders and subsequent price drop. I bet you it'll be 50GBP cheaper (for 32gb + dock) by the end of next month, if not sooner.

Question is : how long can I wait :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
now I haven't seen not one negative thread post or topic on Prime get 10 or more thanks. Keep preaching on brother ;) we will prevail and outshine the darkness.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] markimar:
I agree totally. I think Asus should have done a test market in Taiwan first. Waited two months get the bugs out then released it. If they had originally given a February release date and fixed things accordingly to the test market findings they would be seen in a much better light. I think this push to get it out was a mistake. I love my prime. I'm one of the lucky ones with no real issues. But if they had given a later release date I would have waited. Its just a matter of keeping the public informed.

Thanks, however as soon as i transfer the edited framework-res by root explorer. The arc resets and goes into a bootloop. Im pretty new to this, do i have to sign the apk? Step by step guide would be awesome!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p47r0n:
Buuump :( need this to work!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
No you don't need to sign it, but you need to set the correct permissions.

It's easy to do it via ADB.

adb shell dd if=/sdcard/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk

It can also be done with Root Explorer though:

1. Transfer your new apk to the sdcard.

2. Open Root Explorer and move the apk to /system.

3. Set the permissions to : rw-r-r-

(all first column ticked, second column only first ticked.)

4. THEN and ONLY THEN, move it to /system/framework.

5. Reboot and you're done. :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ryan562:
Lmao I sold my xoom to get the Prime. Xoom had a better GPS and WiFi. Othe than that it was lag central and the Xoom screen is washed out and very dim looking v. The Prime lol. I'd say flash the latest ICS build from SteadyHawkin on your Xoom and be happy with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
keep dreaming brUH! lmfao
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] adiliyo:
xoom plus $600 and it's yours.

actually, keep the xoom and just fork over the cash.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kjdocs:
Oh I agree...just figured I would ask as someone on the xoom general forums returned their prime and got a xoom. Now, I have always loved my xoom and IcS has really made it an awesome tablet.

To those with issues with their primes, just hang in there.

btw.. nerys71 you're an ebay bargain hunting bro!!! thanks a lot!

Yes he is... Great find. Been looking for this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] guyver2077:
looks good. Thx op
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
yeah best I could find before was $26.49 and I just did not want to pay that for a little adapter :-)

last night I Just started going through the 177 page of crap that comes up for "epic touch" looking for goodies. (most crap cases :-)

if you have FF and you keep EBAY as your default "search" option all you have to do is highlight that number right click "search ebay" (it will "search" whatever engine you have "active" in the search box) not sure if its built in or its a addon I have I think its built into FF.

otherwise yes just plug that number into ebay.

not samsung, but i wouldnt believe ebay on it being 100% OEM. monoprice is something i trust, and this mhl adapter works fantastic :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
For most things I don't care if its OEM as long as it works (I have learned to prefer OEM batteries unless they are good batteries)

Monoprice. are those prices shipped? is that like a deal extreme site?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jesusfranco:
Not at all like dealextreme, they ship from california.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
I would say it is OEM. I picked this one up 120792846359 back in October and it was OEM and works great. Was the lowest I could find at that time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GReddySetGO:
Does the Samsung cable have a charging port as well?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I don't know I sure hope so.

although with the extended battery it looks like I can play about 84 minutes of video and I was down to 85% battery life so about 5.6 to 1 minutes to percent. so roughly 560 minutes or about 9+ hours per charge.

WOW and that is at full volume and full screen brightness. assuming that depletion rate holds (I just might have to test that one day)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sling:
Yes it has charging port.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geekingitup2005:
Got mine in the mail today and it is indeed an OEM samsung adapter. Works perfectly and it does charge while playing. Thank you for the heads up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
WOW you got it before I did :-)

Mine processed through philadelphia tonight at 1856 so I might have it tommorrow or saturday depending on what they feel like doing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
Monoprice is the bomb. I get tons of quality cables, speaker stuff, etc. from them for incredible prices. Did I mention that their stuff is quality too?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dodongo:
I bought the one from Monoprice that locoboi187 linked in post #7. It's working fine. It was $11 shipped.

In addition to the HDMI jack, the adapter also has a jack to plug in your phone charger, and thus power the adapter and also charge your phone. I had made the assumption that connecting the charger was an optional nicety, but it turns out to be required. It has to be plugged in so that the tv will see the connection. That makes it a little cumbersome since you have both the HDMI cable and the charger cable to contend with, but it works.

Question: Is there any way to turn off the phone screen while its outputting video to the tv?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I don't have anything with HDMI so I can not test but have you tried simply pressing power to turn off the screen?

I know in many programs the program keeps running (podcast player)

moboplayer turns off when you hit power time permitting and if I remember I will try some others. Does core player make an android app?

I bet one of them has a "screen off" function.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dodongo:
If you press the power button to turn off the screen, then the HDMI output turns off too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] liquidhaste:
I picked up the monoprice mhl hdmi adapter, looks solid. I didnt like the fact that the samsung "oem" one on ebay didnt show a picture of it having a seconday micro usb for charging the phone.
