[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Yes, I as described before, the whole system is still functional besides this. I am able to dock my transformer to the keyboard, plug in a USB mouse and actually use the device as if nothing has happened.

Unfortunatelly, I don't know how to permanently get rid of that gears screen.

But it def. seems like because the battery status won't get initiliazed, we see that gears screen to begin with.

The actual firmware is not bricked, it seems like just part of it is.

Again, I do have root access, so I could modify or manually reapply things, If someone tells me what to do.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RamAir02:
I installed all 3 updates with no issues and my TP is running better than ever.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ajamils:
Same here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] norm883:
Maybe once the battery runs down, then charge, and turn on, it can complete the upate. Sounds like it only did a partial something! Some type of driver is missing the way you describe. How about on the dock if you install a usb mouse since the problem appears to be missing the touch portion and brightness? Just a thought. Sounds like it only made 3/4 of the update or something.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skeptikal:
Your GPS didn't lock all by itself. I have been a big proponent of this device and have been arguing with the trolls and haters but you guys have to quit saying your GPS works. It really most probably does not. I will get a really quick lock indoors if I have previously got a lock or my wifi is on. If someone is able to post a video of them putting their prime into airplane mode, rebooting, and getting a lock or even seeing satellites indoors I might concede that it works. But really we need video of that and using it to navigate in a vehicle. I probably can't see myself using a 10.1 inch tablet to navigate either. But I can picture my hot wife holding it in the passenger seat navigating for me. To say my gps works works I don't care what all of you who have actually tested it have to say is like saying 'yall quit talking all that scary science stuff. Evolution's fer f*gs!'
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Update completed and yes, touch more responsive, HOWEVER, there is some bad news I must report.

WiFi performance seems ever so much worse. My upload speeds are at their max consistently but my download is averaging about 3 mbps when before the update I'd hit 20 on a network with <40 avg.

Not good at all. OH and I don't have GPS enabled.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deviouskater:
Man I already miss using my tablet. Why did it happen to me :-(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] quinnco:
I can't try the dock because Amazon is still holding my dock in "not yet shipped" Jail. I am still waiting on them to fulfill the order I placed on Nov 22nd.

And yes my GPS did work. I have had 8 sats locked up and coordinates showing with the WIFI OFF and BT off. (I never turn it on) I did it to see if mine had the GPS issue and it seemed to work as well as my previous TF101.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Can anoyone with a functional Tab please let me know what they see under "About Tablet"

"Touch Panel version" and "MobileDock version"

My "bricked" transformer shows "Not available" for both, and both the Keyboard and Touchdisplay is not working. Coincidence?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tdrussell:
You should definitely have a touch panel version.

Anyone else's Prime decide to reboot itself on it's own? think it's happened twice to me now

You must be kidding! I have the oposite I have a dock and UPS has my Tab since the 12/22 they say tomorrow. Everyone had made out on this but us. Best Buy I think screens my calls, and low man on the totem pole gets me :)

I have been giving suggestions based on my TF101. $688 dollars and Discover is the only one smiling! My Tablet has traveled more than me in 2 weeks I believe than me in my whole life!

Can you use a usb mouse?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FunkyMcBain:
Mine rebooted itself once yes but since then all seems ok. Seems like a pretty good update device works very well now. My download speed over wifi is still at my connection max of 12Mb
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deviouskater:
Transforum forums post said he let the tablet run out of battery after the brick and now it's functioning. He kept rebooting it and it shut its self off. Now he is charging it Hope this helps others. I already returned mine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Yes, i've been mentioning this before. I can use my USB mouse just fine. By Killing the correct process via ADB I'm able to use the Prime with the mouse and dock only.

Can you reboot? If so, did you try to download the .29 update from ASUS and put it on the base of your SD Card and internal SD and reboot? It will be a zip file in a zip file, do not unzip the second one, place it like it is. If you see the .33 ones there remove them.

I successfully installed the 2 firmware updates and the camera update, everything functional.

Touch panel version MXT-2.0 build-170

Mobile Dock version TF201-DOCK-0206
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Yeah I can reboot, and have been trying for some way to re-trigger either the old Asus Update or the .33 once again. Unfortunately I don't get the update notifications to show up again.

I wonder what process is responsible for reading the battery stats (deleting batterystats.bin didnt help). It seems like that is causing the problem. I can try and drain the battery but will not WIPE and reset everything due to me loosing root afterwards.

Thanks, this basically confirms that our Bricked systems are "hanging" with the update.

Just need to find a way to re trigger the update now...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Walkamo:
Hey Skeptical,

I just put my Prime in Airplane mode, powered it off, powered it back on and can see 9 different satellites (7 in use) from inside my house. It did take about 90 seconds for it to lock on...

I have attached a pic....

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skeptikal:
It didn't happen til I see a video. ;)

That said, ima try mine again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jwigginton:
I'd tried a driving test a few days ago, and couldn't get lock on any sats. 7-8 in view in my front yard, but could rarely get a lock on. Tried a driving test, and never locked on to any sat, totally unusable.

Just installed the update, and took a drive test. While it's not a home run, it has improved. I was able to use Navigation, locked on 3-5 sats during my drive on average, dropped out a few times, but was locked on at least 3 sats, 90% of the drive. Accuracy was showing 60-100ft during my drive. I look forward to future updates from ASUS to improve even more.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tdrussell:
I don't mean to be inflammatory, as I think you realize this, but you have gone to pretty extreme lengths to maintain root, which at this point may be the only thing peventing you from restoring functionality.

TF201 | XDA Premium
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThrasherSC2K2:
Yeah, I'll hold out on factory resetting for now. Looking at other posts, it seems like that didn't change how the device loads the missing firmware files.

But my Prime seem to have run out of juice now, so I'll see if it actually charges and "fixes" the problem as described in other posts.

I'm not too confident about that though.

At least thanks to root I was able to use this device with a USB Mouse (as I had to kill a pid whenever I rebooted in order to remove the orange triangle / clockwork screen after startup).

We'll see what happens next.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jzen:
I have also noticed that when you switch power modes before it would also change the contrast and picture quality, now with the new update it does not and appears to be in the yellowish bad picture quality mode no matter which power setting your on...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aawshads:
On the bricked units has anyone tried doing a factory reset? you should just need a paperclip.

Ran my update, only needed one my others were up to date. had wifi and gps on, and a sd card in. update needed 15 minutes to run. afterwards tests showed the following:

Wifi was ok before, but signal strength actually increased.

gps, could not pick up anything before, picked up 11 satelites within 30 seconds after, and stayed locked on while moving.

scrolling does not seem too much different.

had some randon reboots before, nnone since.

all apps tested work fine.

someone try the paperclip and post if that works.

Any assistance from preloaded gps data? Sorry if this was said already.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slugbug2010:
I'm no noob, I've tried searching and I've been reading but I've not seen it mentioned. I know I'm not alone because my friend with a new Prime is having the same problem.

Google+ app does not work. At all. Neither does Google Messenger. Both icons have changed and they are no longer listed as an application that can be uninstalled. He did the update first and asked me if I had the same problem. I hadn't received notification of the update so I suggested he unistall/reinstall the Google+ app but he said it wasn't an option for him. I went and "pulled" the update and it installed with no problems. (ps- only 2 updates for me, the one out of the box and the one today. I've not seen a camera update.)

I'm getting FC after FC on the Google + app even when I'm not using it.

Have y'all read of this somewhere else or checked it yourselves? Any ideas?
[LG Optimus 2x] 4lph4:
I'm curious about the memory swap implementation present in some kernels.

Did anyone know the wareout of the flash memory? From my knowledge there's a limited number of writes (about 100k ?) to a flash memory after that it can be damaged permanently.

IMO the best solution would be swapping on the external SD card that you can cheaply replace if damaged.

Then the question is which class of memory you need for good performance? If the read/write time is slow, all the benefit is lost.

[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
Hi,

I am using modaco's gr5 (v20l) with Horsepower Rc11-R kernel. And I am using a feature available from that kernel called Compcache (compressed cache) which is regarded as swap.

For what I understand, the cache/swap file actually resides in the physical ram itself in a compressed form. Meaning, certain blocks/partition of the ram is being specifically reserved as compressed swap data so that more data can be stored in the physical ram. There are discussions about the fluidity and cpu usage thus affecting the battery life, but I have use it for a week and didn't notice much difference in battery consumption. So it has nothing to do with the internal flash memory.

As far as I know, there is no kernel supporting swap file on internal sd, only fps kernel dev planning on doing it because he does not like compcache, the idea of compressed swap file.

Personally, I prefer compcache on physical ram than swap on external sd because fetching files are faster that way and don't have to worry much about wear on the ram.

I hope someone else can correct me if I am mistaken! thanks!

Cheers!
[LG Optimus 2x] 4lph4:
Thank you for the detailed explanation.

Which is the level of compression achievable?

Wouldn't be more efficient to use a ramhack (like ironkernel) to get more memory?

Sorry for so many questions :)

Inviato dal mio Optimus 2X usando Tapatalk
[LG Optimus 2x] tablighs:
I am not really quite sure about the amount of compression attainable as I do not know much of the nature of compcache. Sorry.

About the ramhack, do you mean the gain of more ram by removing ota function and others or the hack where you lessen the amount of gpu memory buffer and allocate it to main memory?

The gpu buffer ramhack was implemented in most kernels before, but most users do not like the sacrifices that they have to make just to gain an additional 64mb ram (that was the gain that time, I don't know about now on the kernel you mention). One of the problems is with stock gallery not displaying photo correctly and games not function properly.

Fyi, currently I have 750mb of ram by using compcache, 384mb on main, 384mb as compressed cache, all in physical memory. I do not know how they do it, but its there, and I do notice the difference whereby application on background not being terminated as fast as before.

Maybe someone else can give you a better understanding of compcache, how it resides on the ram etc.

Cheers.

Hello All,

In the DCIM\Camera folder of SGS2 I have lots of jpg and mp4 file which have dup0 and dup1 extension.

Can I delete these files? Is it safe?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AzureusPT:
Havent seen those on my phone...

You could check the size to see if they're cache or thumbnail files (if they're smaller than the original picture).

I suppose for each file you have a .jpg and .dup0 or .dup1 duplicate, right? Maybe they're just duplicates as the extension says... xD
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t4ure4n:
The files are the same size as the images or videos.

Some files have dup0 only while others have dup0 and dup1.

I copied some of these to computer and renamed them to jpg...

They turn out to be deleted photos...

Does anyone else have a problem with eclipse and bluetooth? I use a bluetooth stereo headset to listen to music and after a few minutes it cuts out and I have to reboot.

[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
I have a bluetooth stereo and I have disconnect issues as well on gbp7...not sure what the deal is, but I think it's the stereo cause the phone shows still connected and the audio doesn't get rerouted back to phone. You don't have to reboot, just toggle bt off then on. Plus the problem is random.

I never modified anything with the bt is why I think it's the stereo, but I ciudad be wrong. Ima try to get a log and see what the deal is.
[Motorola Droid X2] mgottloeb:
So far music hasn't cut out...I believe it has something to do with v2.02 or the 2.3.5 update
[Motorola Droid X2] ashclepdia:
2.03 is out now...

Maybe that will help ur issues?
[Motorola Droid X2] Peperm1nt:
Not to bust this, but on my end at least, I know I didn't mess up updating the device.

and the Eclipse 2.0.3 update does not change anything to bluetooth..

But I found the Problem.

By chance do you use Google Music as your default music app?

Anyway, I do and the problem is with that app(or maybe its in another setting which I doubt cause the problem persists on GBP7.)

Explanation:

I use a Bluetooth cd player in my car and I use google music to stream to my stereo. Every now and then I lose sound output on my CD Player(although both show connected). The problem would arise whether it was playing local music or streaming from google music. At first thought it was my phone, then I flashed Eclipse to test it out for a lil bit and the problem persisted. So I moved on to thinking it was the Stereo. Well, this morning I was at work(still am..) and I was listening to my music via ear plugs. I ended up getting a random "stop" although the music progress bar was still moving... I changed songs and still had no output. HERES THE KICKER!! I turned the volume up with the keypad and BAM! the sound started to produce out of my precious ear plugs....

I haven't had time to test this with the bluetooth stereo yet, but the problems had IDENTICAL symptoms, so I'm assuming this will work.

The random MUTE of the app is odd, and very random. Sometimes it wont do it for HOURS and then sometimes it will do it every 2 minutes or so. But for now, try to increase the volume(you can do this while screen is off if using Google Music, not sure about others) and see if it solves the issue for now. I will look into it and test with another music app(probably winamp) and see if the problem arises. If so, then I'll look into the system configuration and see if the problem is there. I know I didn't change any bluetooth settings in my ROM, and I haven't noticed any changes by Nitro in Eclipse. So this leads me to think its an APP problem.

I use juice defender and other custom settings for battery life, but I know for a fact those aren't the problems, so if anyone reading this looks into the issue, the problem is either Google Music or in the system configuration. So don't go looking into Juice Defender or other apps to be the problem. ;)

But in the installation procedure, there was this thing:

Well what I did was:

1. go into recovery

2. install custom zip

3. chose that specific patch

But it says installation aborted. Did I do something wrong?

I have apps bigger than 16MB, and i have backup. when I was trying to restore at Titanium Backup, those specific apps bigger than 16MB were paused, and doesn't move even I waited for an hour. I think this has something to do with that patch to be flashed via recovery. Help!

EDIT: well I flashed it via xrecovery, i didn't know that there was also xrecovery and not only CWM recovery. and it worked! but still the same. restoring apps in titanium backup and still a piece of crap stuck at 0%.

Hello!

I just have one question and I hope that you will help me.

I have samsung galaxy mini, upgraded to gingerbread 2.3.6., not rooted. Everything is ok until I don't go on the internet. My battery is great when I send sms, call people around and do stuff like this, but when I open opera mobile or any other browser, battery level goes from 29% to 20% in only 3 minutes. I know that wifi and 3g "eats" battery much more, but I think this is really too much.

I don't have any applications running that "eats" my battery, it's just about wifi/3g.

What should I do? Bring it back to T-mobile? Is this normal to every other galaxy mini or it's just mine :)

(sorry for my english)

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] lackhoo:
maybe your battery is not calibrated

download app to calibrated from attachment

how to use: charge your battery to 100% then open the app and look at the voltage if

if the voltage is 4200mv that mean your battery is calibrate

but if the voltage is less than 4200mv at 100% at the same time take out the battery and pute it in back and turn on phone

there you battery should be lees than 95%

wait till it meet 100% then open the app and your battery should be 4200mv at 100% then presse on calibrate

for all this procedure your charger must be plug-in and 3G/wifi/gps must be desactivate
