[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] seuthes:
I would recommend an external battery because you can use it also to charger other devices and with your phone. External batteries have also often a much higher capacity. So you can charge your phone serval times.

But that s only my opinion ;-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Bigmille:
I recommend either HyperJuice Micro 3600mAh or Mini 7200mAh external battery.

I had the mini since summer 2010 when they are call HyperMac.

The battery still hold lots of charge over a year and half, I use it mainly for hiking trips to charge ipad and phone.

You just need a retractable USB cable with interchangeable heads for different mobile devices, those can be found for cheap on ebay.

The battery is not the cheapest but for the quality, its well priced. The only downside is it can only charge 1 device at a time. I'm not sure if you can use a USB splitter to charge two devices.

P.S. added couple of pics to compare with the Note.

New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh External Battery

I have been using the New Trent iCruiser IMP1000 11000mAh External Battery for about 10 months now. I bought it for a trip to Italy for my wife and I to use while out and about as well as on the plane. We have two Nexus One GSM phones. It also charges my sister's iPad, my Galaxy Tab 10.1, and my Motorola stereo S10 headphones with no problems.

This external battery will charge my N1 about 6 times. It is easy to carry in a jacket pocket but wouldn't fit comfortably in pants pocket. I would say it is about an inch wider and taller than a post-it note and bout an inch thick if that helps. I carried it primarily in my backpack and used a longer USB cable connected to my phone to charge it.

The only negative that I have for this device is that I have to carry ANOTHER charger around with me. I need to figure out what iGo tip will charge this battery and I'll be golden.

Like some users have noted, it will take 12+ hours to charge. As a plus, the charger (as with most AC->DC chargers) works fine on 220V/50Hz if you have the physical plug changer.

Anyway, I can't recommend this enough. Best $80 I ever spent.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] adidie:
thanks everybody. so its an external battery. i'll check it out and choose one for myself
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dt33:
I also got myself MyTrent 11000 mah battery pack and used for few weeks. So far so good and can charge the Note around 4 times before the pack need to recharge.

But i found later, that are smaller one Anker Astro 5600mAh £25.99:

Would rather try out Anker one, its smaller and cheaper.

Bro, I ordered this... http://www.ebay.com/itm/170731777597?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Its a 3 battery + solo battery charger combo, cost $15 no tax.. no shipping. Took about 2 weeks to get and every battery works flawlessly. They all come with 66%charge. The charger even charges my stock battery. All batteries have a cut off switch built in like the original that doesn't allow overcharging. The charger has a led that is red when charging and blue when charged. I have not noticed any difference in battery life when I switch to another battery. At night I can charge one in my phone and one in my new charger. I take two with me and just leave em In my car or my e5 easy case. Never run out of battery, don't have to be plugged in constantly, I use my phone heavily and some days I need 3 full charges. Even if i use 3 batteries in one day, by the time i finish the 3rd the first is charged. I only ever have to charge 2 at night when I'm asleep. The next day I wake up with 4 fully charged (3 spare + 1 original) but iv never used all 4 in one day.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] madbird:
Hi, im also one of the external battery guys. i started with the neofree (4400mah) battery years ago and it never let me down at all. i have done inlineskating (Flämingskate for those who like to explore) trips of 50-100 km a day and dont need to switch off my device to change the battery. just do a continuously gps tracking, and taking pictures, thats great. also i can extend the use of any device with it, that have at least some kind of mini/micro usb connector. I use it also to enhance the runtime of a contour+ camera.

so buying one of these things may be more expensive then simple batteries & charger but you cant go wrong with it.

Hi,

One day I was having fun with my brand new TF101 trying to root it and flash a rom...

I did a MASSIVE FAIL and now I get the asus logo when I turn it on and it only turns off when it has low battery :(. I can however acces the XPA mode (but useless, NVFLash doesn't work on B70+) and I can get into wipe mode and cold-booting. I tried both but the transformer just freezes :confused:. I wonder if one of you guys can tell me if I just have a 399€ paper weight (:mad:) or if it can be a tablet again (:D)?

Thanks,

HorClok
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
What were the exact steps you did to root and flash ?

Did you install CWM Recovery ?

Power off the TF by holding Power for a while until it turns off, then

Try holding Volume Down + Power until white text appears onscreen, then either choose Recovery or Wipe Data
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
Can't remember, I think I downgraded then used razorclaw.

Wish I had...

All i get is wipe Data or cold booting Android... :/ I don't have a recovery mode on this tablet (it's a WW)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baseballfanz:
after the words appear, you have to push vol up within 5 sec to get into recovry.

If you wait after 5 sec. you'll only get the clear data or boot options.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
I think he has nearly the same problem like me.

i also cant get into recovery. but now its enough for me.

I will RMA it tomorrow. i also highly doubt that new SBK-Codes will ever be leaked/cracked.

There was nothing for month now.

Good Luck for you, but i guess only Asus can Flash it back with there "secret-Flash tool" or whatever, which we unfortunately don't have! :mad::mad::mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gls9:
Maybe you can try to use the rom from the asus support site, put it on the external card and look if it will take the "update" ?

You have to unzip the downloaded zip file once. So you get a ASUS dir on the card. I think not unzipping further down.

Or try to play around with the unzipped file like is done here (even in that thread it is an OTA update and not a complete rom).

Just some idea's, didn't try it myself.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiNJiN76:
If it has access to fastboot...can't he just use the fastboot command to flash the system and boot images?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
Where can i find this fastboot, and how get it to work?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stcanard:
Not all hope is lost - I did the exact same thing to my B70 trying to install CWM on it (then found out what a B70 was...). I managed to recover it using ASUS built-in recovery kernel.

The catch is that it seems the recovery kernel will only install a newer firmware - not the current or an older one. If you were still on the older (pre-Christmas firmware) maybe you can use that one right away, otherwise ICS is right on the horizon. If you don't know which you were on, it doesn't hurt to try anyway.

Here's what I did:

1. Stash the transformer under my bed for a month so I couldn't see it laughing at me while waiting for an update.

2. Once there is a newer firmware than the one you currently have, download it from ASUS (sorry I can't post the URL because I'm too new, it's pretty easy to find though)

2. Unzip the downloaded package

3. Find the zip file under ASUS/Update, copy it to an external Micro SD Card and rename it to TF101_SDUPATE.ZIP

4. Insert the sd card into the transformer, then resart it while holding the volume down button (if, like mine, the transformer won't stay off, that's fine - hold down the power key until it turns off, then hold the volume down as it starts back up)

5. When you see the white text in the top left corner, press volume up to enter the RCK.

6. Cross your fingers

If it works in a minute or two you should see a progress bar start up. If it doesn't you will see an android with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle on it's chest.

If it doesn't work, don't despair - it might be the firmware you are using is too close to the existing one on the tablet. Wait for the next release and try again. It took me a month of waiting, but I finally got mine back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
hmm but you where always been able to access the Recovery, so that you can the Androidman with yellow triangle or?

On my Pad, if i press vol-up it shortly shows "booting recovery Kernel", and than screen gets black and instantly reboots.

You had the same behaviour?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stcanard:
Unfortunately it seems yours might be even more hosed than mine was then - I could always access the android with the yellow triangle. The recovery/wipe/cold boot screens were always available, it would just hang at the ASUS screen on boot, always restart when turned off
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
First of all, thanks for responding everyone.

I have to remember you that NVFlash does not work on Asus B70+.

I'm on the 8.6.5.19, so I can try with the 8.6.5.21 and that's what i'm doing right now.

have the exact same problem. I'm trying your method right now, i'll edit to tell you ;)

EDIT: Tried the SD101_UPDATE.zip method, it didn't work, my firmware isin't old enough. I'll just wait for another update or ICS. Thanks anyway! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stcanard:
Just to double-check - did you use the name TF101_SDUPATE.zip? I'm not sure if your above name was a typo after a long day of debugging :)

Good luck - I had pretty much given up hope after bricking mine, but did get it back. Hope your recovery efforts go as smoothly!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knopper84:
hmm, TF101_SDUPATE.zip ?

i thought all times "EP101_SDUPDATE.zip" ?

So what is the right name? :confused::confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stcanard:
Now I'm wishing I had taken better notes when I did it.

I'm 90% sure I ended up using TF101_SDUPDATE.zip, because I was surprised too - I had previously seen EP101...

It certainly doesn't hurt to try both. It's also possible that the current firmware recognizes a couple of names.

[EDIT]

Looking at my terminal history, it looks like TF101... was an earlier failed attempt, and I did use EP101_SDUPATE.zip

If you haven't try it with the name EP101_SDUPATE.zip and see if it works any better!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Horclok:
Yeah I did use TF101_SDUPDATE.zip, I'll try EP101_SDUPDATE.zip this evening. Really hope it will work. Anyway ICS is on the way! (Do you guys know when it's gonna be on the tf101? :D)

Custom ROM is operating system for the phone. Custom ROM's mostly have more features and are faster. You have propably noticed that stock (original) 2.3 is very laggy. But to install other ROM You will have to first root Your X10, install xRecovery (or CWM) and exceptionally unlock bootloader (now most of the ROM's require this). You can read about those things in X10 android developement section. After You've done that things You are able to install new ROM's. If You would like to root and etc. and You would have any problems post me and I will help You :)
