[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
While it is true that PANs and WANs use the same protocols and there could very well be some wireless conflict, not only do I not see it on a much more inferior device (my phone), but the WiFi decline on my Prime is quite awful.

We're talking speed declines of 80% or more and random disconnections within minutes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
Both wifi 802.11 and Bluetooth use the 2.4 Ghz spectrum.

One nice test will be if someone could try duplicating the test with the Transformer Prime using the 5 Ghz 802.11n spectrum (does the TP have capability for 5 Ghz?)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I'm not home right now so I can't test it at the moment, but I will say this:

On my Galaxy Nexus, when paired to a Bluetooth speaker and on my WiFi, the audio gets incredibly choppy when I try to use my phone. As a result, I've been disabling WiFi and using my 3G connection when paired to my Bluetooth speakers, which is better. This sounds like the same issue. I'll specifically test speeds on my Galaxy Nexus when paired tonight, but I'm also suspecting this issue isn't limited to the Prime.

The problem is that ASUS has f***ed up so damn much with this product already, that everyone (including myself) is ready to pin every little thing on them and their incompetence ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 5h4d0w:
FWIW, I have no problem using wifi while streaming BT audio on my nexus S. I can even turn on my microwave and though it'll cut out momentarily sometimes, it recovers. I can even put it IN the microwave (not turned on) and it still mostly works (stuttery).

I can't stream on my prime, even with the microwave off ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] The_Ninjak:
Sadly, the Prime does not support 5GHz connections which surprises the hell out of me. Although the aluminum would likely kill it anyhow. I suppose this means the TF700T won't support 5GHz either, come to think of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hairdewx:
This.

There will always be some sort of interference when using them at the same time - the issue here is that in this case it is enough to notice it.

Even my Bluetooth Logitech mouse was interfering with my laptop WiFi before I ditched it for one of the proprietary wireless mice.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Well, I have a hard time giving ASUS so much grief about this when my Samsung Epic 4G Touch has roughly the same performance. I tried browsing while streaming music to my BT headphones over wifi and was having a hard time getting any sites to respond. I turned off BT and played over the external speakers, and browsing recovered. Pretty much just like on the Primes I've tried.

So, yes, maybe the Prime is marginally worse than the Epic 4G Touch, but not so much so as to be an entirely different problem. I never noticed this on the phone because I usually only use my BT headphones when away from the house and on 3G.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
I'm not one of the complainers, but this is a disappointing oversight. I know for a fact that the iPad2 I got for my sister can use the 5Ghz band 802.11n, and I suppose I assumed that all modern competitive tablets could too.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
Both bt and wifi operate within the ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) 2.4 GHz short-range radio frequency band. The close proximity of the rf sources is bound to cause interference, so just need to be aware of the quirks and limitations.

Oops, someone already beat me to it. Good job!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Well, I tested this out using my BT speakers and both my Galaxy Nexus and Transformer Prime. The TP is messed up. My Nexus streamed music and downloaded at about 10 Mbps, while the Prime crawled at about 0.25 Mbps while streaming. Do the problems ever end with this tablet? Does Asus actually employ real engineers? Unbelievable.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
OP, your test only needs to show streaming with Wifi vs streaming with Wifi w/ paired BT device (i.e. stereo headphones/speakers)

and I don't see any results of streaming with Wifi in your post.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NastroGlide:
Has anybody ever thought that these Supremely Awesome Magnificent Super Powerful SoC's aren't so super awesomely powerful and get bogged down? I mean seriously, I don't expect much from these devices and bt has always been "just ok" technology. Of course I'm expecting flaming, b/c ppl actually believe these mediocre devices can multitask like a frickin quad core intel x86 proc.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] setite:
Bluetooth and Wifi essentially operate in the same frequency band(s). As such bluetooth and wifi have always messed with each other. This is made worse by the fact that the phones mobile, low performance nature further limits the ability of the devices to handle multiple functions.

The "issue" people are reporting with the prime is a degradation of performance in excess of the norm. The key is whether or not the degradation is immediate and steady, or degenerative. With most devices you lost performance due to load on the device and RF interference, but the loss is steady and doesn't affect real world performance. For the primes with the issue there is the instant performance drop and it gets consistently worse until the connection becomes unusable and/or fails altogether.

TF101's Tegra 2 doesn't exhibit the same limitations. Though that doesn't necessarily mean the Tegra 3 doesn't have some bug.. but I sure hope not.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lion2:
You obviously didn't read my entire post. I did perform test while transferring a file over bluetooth. I even have a second post explaining exactly how I did that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ultradsa:
But were you pairing it with something? All I see is that you state that it's "on" but no mention of being paired with something. I've noticed in others post that the issue doesn't show until you pair it with something. I don't think transferring a file via BT constitutes streaming or transferring via wifi?

Am i missing something here?

I thought the tests should go down like so:

Test 1. BT off and streaming or transferring via "wifi".

Test 2. BT on and "paired with device" while streaming or transferring a file via wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
You are missing something.

Why would OP or any test be "streaming with Wifi" in addition to the benchmark? What we are testing is Wifi throughput -- obviously if you're loading the Wifi bandwidth with a download or stream in addition to the benchmarking downloading/uploading/ping test, you're going to get slower benchmark results.

In addition, just having a BT connection doesn't test the interference correctly, because a BT connection can be sustained with minimal broadcasting over the BT connection; which is why a sustained file transfer/audio playback over BT is needed in order to test interference between BT and Wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
you just answered your own question and see the point I was making.

This is why I only want to see Wifi (only) + streaming compared against Wifi (w/paired BT) + Streaming

just streaming an audio is file is not going to give you much read, you folks should be testing this with

streaming video

. an HD Youtube video, or Netflix or Hulu would be better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lion2:
Again if you read my entire original post, you will see that I was testing my wifi performance by going through 3 sets of tests on two different devices.

Test 1. Bluetooth off

Test 2. Bluetooth on. No activity

Test 3. Bluetooth on. with file transferring over bluetooth
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] anilkuj:
i completely agree i compared my prime with the S II and got identical results

Bluetooth off:

Galaxy S II 16.75 mbps

Prime: 17.20 mbps

Streaming Music Bluetooth off

Galaxy S II 16.75 mbps

Prime: 17.20 mbps

Bluetooth on No Activity

Galaxy S II 16.5 mbps

Prime: 16.8 mbps

Streaming Music Bluetooth on connected to headphones

Galaxy S II 3 mbps

Prime: 2 mbps

This is a common issue, guess we are just over analyzing and over critical about all these prime issues :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Some people will remain hardheaded no matter how much you disprove them..lol. for people to think that wifi and BT signals being loaded at the same won't have an effect on each other doesn't know about Technology too much. keep this thread going. This is an issue with all electronics. not just the Prime. Some will be affected more than others.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmat1120:
I literally get the exact same results with these devices (different numbers but same ratios)!!! But also just saying unless you are on really crappy wifi then you can still watch Netflix in HD while playing it through bluetooth.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mubble:
(Without sounding like a know it all) but I've known of this issue on other devices for ages.

I use my iPod Touch to bluetooth music over to my hifi. But when I use it to go online and try to stream a music video from youtube for example (with the audio being streamed to my hifi via bluetooth) the wifi streaming stops completely.

Turn bluetooth off and it streams again.

Same happens with my HTC Desire.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] houkah:
Is there any way to find out what caused a reboot on a stock unrooted verizon galaxy nexus running 4.0.2? My phone randomly rebooted just now and i have no idea what might have caused it as it's never happened before. The full uptime was roughly 2 weeks when it happened, and i had just upgraded google maps.

One interesting thing is that usually when it reboots my battery stats are still intact and i just get an empty vertical line showing where it rebooted. In this case it wiped my battery stats (from this charge) so it's currently showing that its been unplugged for about 8m instead of the 5 hours it's actually been unplugged.

Any thoughts? Not a big deal, just a curiosity.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] textshell:
I noticed some information is printed in the kernel log (adb shell dmesg) about the last reset. Look for "Last reset was "...

On a clean reboot it said:

Last reset was warm software reset

Not sure what else you can find there or if it's useful...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
If you have narrowed down what is causing the reboots you could connect your phone to your computer and get a logcat. If it does it randomly that would be hard to do.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Surja:
Hi guys,

I recently got the TPT 3G 64GB and was pretty happy except for the occasional lag. But it was bearable. Also, I found that widgets slows it down a bit, so I got rid of most of them.

Then I got the Transcend 32GB Class 10 SDHC card to expand the memory. I put all my photos in there which is around 20GB. Then I suddenly found the TPT to be really laggy all the time. I couldn't figure it out. I thought it was beacause of some apps I installed. But nothing helped. Then I just removed the SD card from my TPT and did a reboot. Immediately I saw the difference!! It's back to its normal speed.

This is very alarming. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? This is not normal, right?

[Thinkpad Tablet General] huotg01:
I thought there was a problem with the native launcher, but I would like ta have a better understanding before switching to adw.

Could you tell me more about what is happening ?

Thanks
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Janis:
Just try any other launcher

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Android_Launchers

Zeam has a reputation for being clean (very essential), fast, and good on older phones.

you also may want to try:

1. a physically different card, perhaps a much smaller one to see if that makes a difference

2. a card you have formatted in the machine you intend to use it primarily

3. if you create a Linux Ubuntu boot CD and load up GParted (I'ts a bit to get into, but once you're in, you're in, and it's so incredibly handy) you can inspect and create partitions with whatever format you like. I don't, but could in a pinch use Ubuntu as a daily driver for a PC/laptop, so if my Windows dies, I have a slower, but free backup plan.

4. take a flashlight and a magnifying glass and check to make sure the pins that connect to the card look absolutely tidy. They're fragile, and if something's .1mm off, it could, on the outside chance, confuse things just enough to slow things down a lot rather than stopping things entirely.

5. Call Lenovo. It's your civic duty ;) to report a problem. They may already have a fix, they may just escalate pursuing a fix they've gotten some/not enough calls on, or they may blow you off but you know & have record that you alerted them if there ends up being a class action lawsuit or whatever. It's just the smart and upstanding way to go.

6. Try the card that's giving you problems in a store model if you can find one. See if it does the same thing.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calash:
I have been hitting a roadblock with trying to get 9mm to run on my touchpad.

So far I have been working from the instructions here:

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7709-gameloft-compatibility-thread-with-working-version-s/

There is a copy on XDA as well but they both do the same thing. Normally I get all pink/red textures. Using the instructions I get all black/white textures.

According to everything I can find the setup listed "should" work, but it does not for me. I think I am missing some steps, but trying to search for "9mm" does not come up with much.

I see mention about getting the Tegra version of the game but nobody says how to do this. I assume it has to do with an edit to build.prop but so far the exact edit is something I cannot find.

Thanks :)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mdm1234:
I have the same issues. I was able to get rid of the pink and actually get the correct graphics. The game starts to go black after the intro though. I wonder if getting the full version of chainfire would help. Any suggestions?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calash:
I am running the full version and have had no luck at all. For me I get black textures for everything on the Nvidia plugin. Pink for every other setting.

I have seen it listed as working but so far nobody will actually post how they got it to work.

At least I only invested .99 . Not a huge loss if I cant get it running.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calash:
Ok, I got a bit closer last night in getting this running. I can now watch the opening movie without any texture distortion but after that the game locks up. Sound still plays fine.

Oddly my live wallpaper also starts crashing, making me wonder if I am hitting a memory cap. I do run V6 supercharger so I can make adjustments to the limits.

What I did, and it is based on posts linked in the original thread and some serious expiramentation.

1 - Delete the 9MM game folder from /sdcard/gamelof/ I believe it has the letters 9MM in it.

2 - Change your build.prop. Model: PG86100 Brand: Sprint

3 - Reboot

4 - Start 9MM. let it download the files, mine were about 800MB

5 - Restore you build.prop . This will vary depending on your rom.

6 - Another reboot

Like I said this starts to play for me then locks up. I have not played much with all the plugins and drivers in Chainfire3D so the solution may be in there someplace. This may also not be the best way to get it running...but so far it is the closest I can get :)
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Motoki_:
I haven't tried it for this game, but I am familiar with jumping through hoops to get Gameloft games to work. :rolleyes:

Basically what you would need to do is to pick a popular Tegra 2 device that Gameloft supports and Google for the build.prop of that devices. If you're not sure which devices are Tegra 2 check wikipedia and if you aren't sure which devices Gameloft supports check their site, but in general they like the big mobile carriers like Samsung, HTC and Motorola but ignore others like Asus, so don't pick the Transformer build.prop.

In this case I would say go for the Xoom build.prop edits and I did Google Xoom and 9mm and verified people with the Xoom are saying it works on their device.

In this case, a Google search for Xoom build.prop should bring up some useful results. Having done that the relevant edits you want will be:

ro.product.model=

ro.product.brand=

ro.product.name=

ro.product.device=

In the case of the Xoom you would want the following edits:

ro.product.model=Xoom

ro.product.brand=verizon

ro.product.name=trygon

ro.product.device=stingray

The other thing you will want to do is use Chainfire set to the Tegra 2.

The build.props should get you the Tegra data and then Chainfire should (hopefully) translate it run properly.

Again, I haven't tried all this but I have done similar edits for other Gameloft games.

Hi there...

I will like to enable the Skyrocket to read SMS. I enable the Driving Mode, but the cell phone only says:

"New Message from ________"

But doesn't read the content of the message. I'm using Spanish language, you think that may be the reason?

Do I need an application or something additional??

I've install "Titanium Backup" and "SuperUser". Do they affect this function??

Thanks and regards...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] silver03wrx:
No they dont affect the function. Go on the market and download vlingo. When vlingo is in car mode it will read texts too you. You can also speak text replys
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] agafed:
Thanks for your answer! Vlingo seems to work.

Although, I'm kind of intrigued why the GSII applicattion doesn't work... :cool:

What I don't like about Vlingo, it's that it seems to need Internet Connection for "listening". I know, that depending on what I order, it would need internet, but not for calling or texting for example. Is there a way to change that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] appdroid:
What GSII app doesn't work??? any examples..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] agafed:
Maybe I misspelled it. What I meant it's that when I enable "Driving Mode", the content of the text messages are not read.

That's what intrigues me, since it's suppose that it does read the content.

Or is it that it needs a complement like "Vlingo"??

Thanks...
