[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
The three develope marketshare hand in hand: hardware, software, and carriers. One cannot sell (aside the unbranded devices) without the other.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FTC:
...this is how it was supposed to work at the begining. However as we are all aware, this strategy failed because the maker were more interested to sell their Android devices, the carrier were not so keen to go along with WP7 and Microsoft had no specific "Windows Phone" to advertise for. Now with Nokia entering the WP7 market, this might change the game. Nokia started a PR-blitz which the carrier can't ignore any longer and the makers like Samsung, HTC and others will be obliged to start pushing their WP7 devices if they don't want to lose this part of their business...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
Well yes and no... if you remove "wp7" "android" and whatever operating systmes mentioned, yes...

Because the carriers and hardware makers don't care whose OS is on the device, so long as:

A) the device sells (hardware makers)

B) there is a new contract signed to receive said device (carriers)

Neither of those (hardware or carriers) with exception of the now heavily committed Nokia care what os is selling, so long as -something- sells.

HTC, samsung, nokia, pantech, motorola can all very easily swap to symbian, webos, wp, wm, android, ios, or whomever should the market begin to sway (sales) in one OS's favor.

Its even easier for the carriers, as their only vested interest is the contract, which does not depend on an os whatsoever.

So, we're back to creating interest for a product where there is currently little to none, amoung very concrete competition.

Its a PR/AD persons wet dream, IF they succeed.

Interesting stuff :)

So bootloader is unlocked? Yes or no?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjsoviet:
Might as well make sure and check if your updated Primes have unlocked bootloaders now. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Noxious Ninja:
I think we would need nvflash to do that, and AFAIK there's no working nvflash for the Prime yet. Maybe we'll get something good on the 12th.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shishanoob:
Haven't seen anything on their site posted. Probably won't be included in the ICS update itself, since unlocking the bootloader voids warranty, they won't auto-unlock everyones. Hopefully they'll put something out in a day or so...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Well I guess they pushed the unlockable bootloader together with the ICS update.

Now we just need their tool (program, website, whatever) to finally unlock it.

Nothing to see here until ASUS announces this tool.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Someone had a working NVflash didnt they ??? howelese did we discover that the bootloader was encrypted ?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Twice now in the last 40 minutes since updating to ICS my screen has locked up in a browser and in a game and then restarted itself..... anyone else?

UPDATE:

- Short and sweet so you don't have to read through 30 pages.

- If your Prime has this problem either

A.) Return to store for refund or exchange and pray you get a newer unit without the different hardware/firmware version

B.) Call ASUS RMA it and pray they can finally get something right.

C.) Sit on your hands while you wait to see if ASUS can somehow figure out a magical firmware patch that will play nice with both older and newer Primes..... all the while getting frustrated with a prime that can be used as a paper weight.

I recommend A I found a new prime from HHGregg and it works just fine and I am finally happy again but still pissed at ASUS for this huge quality control blunder.

update 1/31

here is exactly the reason you do not want to rma to Asus.

Constant locking and rebooting here. Never rooted.

I've done the factory wipe twice. Still doing it.

This time I wiped and didnt sync with my Google account in case its some data thats being restored thats causing it.

Ive had no problems until the update
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jg10571:
I updated to ICS last night and it rebooted at least 6 times in 1 hour. Couldn't take it anymore. I've only had the tablet for a week with no issues before update..Hope Asus didn't release a bad update...that would suck.

Thinking about doing a full data wipe and factory reset. Has anyone already tried this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nerdninja:
Just did it again with no apps loaded or anything. Every 20 minutes or so

I loved this tablet until now. I'm so frustrated

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] primetimex:
I had made a separate post this AM on this topic; but i have the same issue.

not rooted

never had a reboot or issue till last nights update

it boots and loads, i get in for about 1-5 mins and then it locks up and freezes for 10 seconds and does a quick book loop, then repeat.. over and over.

i have so many apps and settings i am dreading a factory reset, since it hasn't worked for anyone else i will hold off..

any other ideas?

---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

was thinking maybe we should get our heads together and see if we have a common app or setting that is causing it.

but people have said they did a factory reset and it didn't fix it with no apps, so i am lost.

---------- Post added at 03:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 PM ----------

One clue I may have is that it only happens after the screen is unlocked.. if you leave the screen locked all day it won't reboot.

Once you unlock the screen its like a ticking time bomb. i've tried stopping all running services as well the second i unlock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] m.a.s.e:
same here

same issue here

never rooted

never had issues

once upgraded constant reboots

also noticed google + force close every time.

i guess its not just 1 or 2 people....

hope asus will push another update soon
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nerdninja:
I can't seem to find a common thread among all of my experiments. I've wiped three times now (third time I got the message about upgrading and updating apps again, but it's still doing it), I've tried wiping and not using any Google accounts, I've tried using my Google account but not restoring, I've tried wiping data in all of my apps, I've tried killing all running services. I've removed my microSD card and it still happens. It also happened to me in all of the power modes. Actually, I haven't tried "power saver."

Seems to happen every 15-20 minutes, but I've also had it happen immediately after a reboot.

I wonder if it's due to the rumored overclock. I hope it's not a hardware issue.

Prior to the update I had zero issues with anything, including GPS or wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] primetimex:
yup i am in the same boat as you and have tried basically everything you have minus the reset. since it doesn't seem to be a solution I am going to hold off.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pyro6128:
same thing happening with mine, tried the data wipes and resets. I'm at a loss
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] primetimex:
my latest attempt is turn on auto brightness and leave it in powersave mode.. its been up 5 mins.. which is a record today.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Doktaphex:
Probably due to the update not wiping system. Hopefully when ASUS upload the zip to the support site, you'll be able to sort it out. Could be a few days till that happens though. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nerdninja:
I'm also trying it in powersave mode and it seems to be running better now. I'm about ten minutes in, currently streaming something in Netflix with no problems.

***And as I was typing that the thing rebooted again. Not tied to the power mode***

From what I've been able to find that is specific to the samsung dialer, an is removed from cyanogen because it uses a different dialer. I just did a nandroid backup, odined back to ec05 using the instructions in the sticky, did what I wanted, and restored.

Kinda sucks but otherwise cm7 is awesome
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2831641:
you should only have to ##8778# if you need to program using qpst. If that's the case flash a different rom, program with qpst, then flash cyanogen. Your qpst setting dont change after flashing new roms. as far as the mms.apk files i created i believe they would work with cyanogenmod but i cant say for sure. just message me once you get your phone programmed and i will make a cyanogenmod mms.apk for you.

Hi guys

I need help with my HTC EVo View 4g Tablet. My tablet ran out of charge and despite leaving it plugged in for charging to both a power outlet in the wall and to a USB port on my computer all that happens is that an orange light next to the power button flashes. My computer does play a sound recognizing that a device has been connected to the USB port but my tablet doesn't turn on at all. I would really appreciate any help with the issue. Thanks.

[Verizon Droid Charge] blueis300:
Im looking for and bought on ebay is one of those square ac/usb extra battery chargers along with a true samsung droid charge cable like what I got with the oem phone. Eveything I am finding is either generic or a samsung cable that is generic or from a different samsung phone. The one that actually came in the box with my phone seems to fit the best over all that I have tried or bought.
[Verizon Droid Charge] jager420:
Micro USB only come in one size. Each one will prob have different voltage or what not but should fit the same as your stock cord.
[Verizon Droid Charge] kvswim:
Partly true-all microUSB comes in the same size. However, all USB operates at 5V, so there is no voltage difference. Amperage may vary from charger to charger though. A normal USB port is designed to run at 500 mA. The stock charger can provide up to 1A, but the kernel regulates it. I have an LG cable for charging in my car, and my OEM cable roams around my house.

So, are you looking for a battery charger or a phone charger?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3x-Battery-...&otn=2&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=5655102592788266837

Not looking for the batteries as I just use the charger. Ended up buying one and the battery will sit around as I have enough. I did also buy some samsung usb cables but again none look or connect as well as the one that came with the phone for some reason. They work so thats what counts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zorachus:
Last couple ROM's I tried this week, I get this weird statement when booting up.

It says. ANDROID UPGRADING; below that says OPTIMIZING APPLICATIONS 00 of 99.

That just started happening tonight. On two different ROM's. Happens every time I reboot. Other than that the phone works perfectly, warp speed fast, buttery smooth.

Just curious why it says that when loading up ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] droidstyle:
normally it only does that after a dalvik wipe...wierd
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zorachus:

Yep, did a regular reboot and it restarted normal, and very fast. Holy cow AOKP 15 is blazing fast man.

Usually Does this, as you say after a Dalvik cache wipe. I can only assume it is caching the apps on first boot for future use.

Hi Fellow Gs2 Owners,

I am starting this thread for owners of the white GS2 i9100 models who have purchased the 2000mah battery kit.

I just received mine today and noticed the top left hand side (volume button) side of the cover does not quite snap in very well.

Quite an annoyance if you intend to not use any other covers like myself.

On examining the moulding and comparing it to the original back cover, I can see the notch that would normally click into place is not well pronounced (as the original)

Appreciate if all white model owners respond as I would like to see how many are affected.

With this I hope get a Samsung rep to investigate.

Also please advise your location and place of purchase ie shop at ur locality or overseas ebay?

I'll start with me.

Location: Sydney Australia.

Purchased: Locale computer vendor

thank you,

MK
[Galaxy S II Accessories] gothikj:
You got NFC version too, didn't you?

Hello,

My friend i'm afraid you bought the wrong version. Consider the following:

1. Either you have the International version (GT-i9100) and bought the NFC version which will not fit or

2. You have some other variant (many out there :) ) and purchased this "Genuine Samsung EB-K1A2EBEGSTD 2000mAh Battery w Back Cover Galaxy S2 SII i9100" which is for the GT-I9100

Since you're from down under I think the first one "fits your case". I have the GT-I9100 and made the same mistake by getting the NFC version :(

Some screenshots and further details about your phone could help speed things up..worst case you'll have to get the correct version..like I've had to..and I'm loving it!! :)

PS: The battery fits, just not the back cover...so let me know if you manage to get one! :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mookill:
1. I have the i9100T

2. The kit I purchased is EB-K1A2EWEGSTD (the W referencing white model)

I dont see how this it the incorrect kit as it does fit but does not snap in firmly.

Is this the same issue you had?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] vdubguy83:
Mines the same way. Top left (volume side) doesn't snap in correctly :banghead:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] mr mystery:
Ya same, many of us have confirmed the same. It's a manufacturing defect.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ndy4eva:
I have two different version; one from Korea (SKT/KT) and one from HK.

EB-K1A2EWSG (Korea)

- NFC battery

- The battery cover does not fit at all. All the side clips are on different location

EB-K1A2EWEGSTD (HK)

- Non-NFC battery

- This one fits fine with my GT-i9100m (Bell) version, but there's slight gap on right corner as reported here.

I also think the screen on white is different than the black. I checked several different blacks and whites SGSII's from the store and my friends unit. The white one is little off compare to black. I personally think the screen on black unit looks better than the white.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] killawatts:
I'm with Bell and have the same (i9100m), my cover doesn't fit either. (top right hand corner does not sit properly - volume side)

Its kind of a pain... but as long as I use a case its held on pretty well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ndy4eva:
which case are you using? I'm using SGP Neo Hybrid EX. So it exposes the back cover. :p
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ewok666:
Same here. I found that it seems to sit a bit better after a while (a few days maybe) and it's unlikely to fall off ;-)

[Galaxy S II Accessories] naddie:
I have the black version and same thing. The top right area near the volume buttons (right below the notch where you'd pull the cover off) is buldging a bit like it won't sit flush. It looks like the tab is not grabbing on to the cover.

Its not just the white cover.

I have the black I9100 international non-NFC model. The battery kit is model # EK-K1A2EBEGSTD

Update: I noticed that the entire right side nothing is actually grabbing on to the phone! Its only the left side and the top that has EFFECTIVE tabs! It's the same on the original batter cover!

What a ****ty design. The entire right side is not secured by anything! Its a wonder how the original fitted on without creaking!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Svendrae:

I got my non-NFC white battery off mobilefun and it's fine for me. Good luck!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] naddie:
Here's my fix:

Take a hair blow dryer and heat up the problem area of the battery cover (better take it off the phone, first!).

When it got nice and hot, gently bend/shape the problem area inwards. I held mine for a minute or so in the bent shape. After letting it go, it should look normal still.

Pop it back in, and it got a bit better for me. :)

I did it again a few times, and it made a huge difference! The creak is gone, and it's nearly flush! There is still some give, but it's much better than before.

Hope it helps someone. If it does, please hit the Thanks button. :cool:
[Galaxy S II Accessories] tsuchiro:
This totally worked for me! it also no longer makes the popping noise either
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kastorix:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] ndy4eva:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] naddie:
I can't tell what you did there. Can you elaborate?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ndy4eva:
I will upload better photo when I get home today. Basically, I cut in more to have better grip. When you carefully inspect the original cover and the extended battery cover, you'll notice the extended one does not have same clip size as the original. It's the top right corner clip.
