[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deliriousdave:
I'll hold off contacting ASUS for now. In all my excitement I actually "bribed" an authorized ASUS vendor with equivalent of 200 $ to get the device. I don't even know if they've now officially started selling them yet.

I downloaded the European firmware now (DE SKU, at least). Can anyone tell me how exactly I can flash it to the device? (sorry, bit of a newbie)

In any case I guess the current situation is not a total dealbreaker for me as its possible to get the APK files for most apps and I can then manually install them...but it still sucks.

Thanks for all your help!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
Wow man. Props on the dedication for getting this device. Not sure I would have been that impatient myself. :)

Sounds like the previous post from devilfan is what you want, and he is probably the best person to help you out.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot, I'll try this tonight and report back!

It seems to be something with all (Asus) chinese tablets. For example the TF101: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...lp/4016-asus-tf101-chinese-version-issue.html

So it at least has nothing to do with the GPS or something.. maybe something with the Chinese goverment?

Hi All,

I am trying to find the windows 6.5 ROM from HTC for India, which was available on their website but now I am unable to find the same.

I am planning to flash my Nand with CM7 Android and if something goes wrong I would be using this ROM as a failsafe.

Please let me know if someone has this ROM or a link where I could download it from.

Regards,

Rooted by following all steps mentioned in this post.

Locked the bootloader again.

Will update if any problem occurs in usage or updating.

TESTPOINT method should be used very carefully. better to take some help from another person. when connecting or disconnecting of usb cable is required it should be done from pc, microusb should always be connected to avoid moving the phone while touching the testpoint.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] phatagnus:
Just in case any of you guys will revert to stock .42 version after unlocking your bootloader via testpoint method and rooting as described in this thread, DO NOT upgrade to .62 when prompted by the phone notification. Most likely, it will brick your phone.

I just tried on my phone after flashing the stock Ne0V_4.0.2.A.0.42.ftf

The software update will warn you about rebooting, after reboot the process will start and very shortly after, the phone will be turned off.

Trying to switch on the phone will result in a one or two green led flashes and a short vibration. The phone will not switch on.

At this point, the phone is already in flash mode if you're plugging in the USB cable to your computer. Flashing a full/stock ROM will not help, the process will complete successfully but your phone will not power on.

To bring it back to life, check out this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1324707

Download the archive listed in the first post. Unpack.

The FlashTool provided in that archive doesn't seem to work with our MT11i, we need the latest version of FlashTool from here:

http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/

Download, unpack, install drivers, etc.

We need this file: Xperia 2011 Range_FreeXperia_ALL.ftf from the FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick\FlashTool_0.2.9.1\firmwares

(the archive listed in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18875112&postcount=1)

This file should be copied to our new FlashTool 0.6.6/firmwares folder.

Now, start FlashTool 0.6.6, and connect the phone to USB.

FlashTool will detect the phone in flash mode.

Hit the first button on the left (flash) and in the newly opened window (Mode Selector) choose Flashmode, click OK and then you should see the firmware selection window.

Now, select "Xperia 2011 Range" (click on it). Make sure on the right you have loader.sin and preset.ta listed on Firmware Content tab. Click OK and wait for the flashing operation to finish (less than a minute).

Now, remove the USB cable and power on your phone. Everything should be OK now, the phone will boot and inform you that the software update cannot be installed.

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 PM ----------

You don't have to install a custom kernel because the stock kernel is the best for now. Rooting your phone is enough to setcpu. If you want to install a custom kernel you have to unlock your bootloader ( find the guide in sonyericsson site) rooted phone and then you can install it with the folllowing order in tha command line (cmd) fastboot flash boot boot.img

Wish i helped !

I've read at the development section that almost everyone else has better battery efficiency than I've got.

I'm using the stock rom atm which came when I installed .62 firmware with flashtool. [ROM]Generic MT15i (Neo) 4.0.2.A.0.62 (1246-9107) (Android 2.3.4)

I have also rooted it with rootxperia.zip via recovery. And I have installed inteks v15 kernel with fastboot. Just did a overnight test and lost ~50% battery in 10 hours.

I turned wifi off for the nigth, also chose gsm preferred and disabled data. Should i run test in airplane mode also?

Battery usage shows me that Cell standby and Phone idle takes each like 45% out of the battery and display and fancy widgets takes the rest 10%. I have also noticed that in day-use when I actually use my phone, even if my brightness is set to min and I have turned off the Bravia engine, Display takes very big percent out of the battery, is this normal?

Any tips are really appreciated, I have bought a couple of spare batterys (from dealextreme like 6$ each) so I can almost live normal life with them.. Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Mikk36:
You could try removing the calibration data for your battery, if it seems to get empty too quickly.

Having Cell Standby and Phone Idle roughly equal seems correct. Screen taking up a huge portion is mainly thanks to a rather large screen, which needs to be lit.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Perry_wh:
Actually just before my overnight test I removed batterystats.bin file with BatteryCalibration app I found from market.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan14:
If I sell an app on the Android market it says I need to have a Google checkout merchant account to receive payment and it says I need to use a business name that will appear on the buyer's credit card statement. I do not have a business and I do not want to have my real name appearing on the buyer's statement, so can I just use a fake business name?

Any developers here that could answer my question?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjtj4444:
It will not be a fake business name, what you write there will more or less be your business name.

And second, if you sell an app on market, then you do have a business per definition.

And using a name like Dell, Apple, Samsung, Ford etc will be like asking for trouble :)

The least you should do is to search on Android market if someone else is using the same name.
