Would you agree that this is a workable solution for $5? If you are happy with everything else, why not just get this device and move on? If this truly is not good enough, you really do need to find another tablet because the TP is what it is. I will keep mine, but also keep pressure on Asus to make things right.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
You are making the false assumption that everyone can afford multiple gadgets...some (probably many) will save their money for a device, that, as originally advertised, does everything they want....

So please give us a break...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
@ fuzzer

Can you tell me the type of charger that this device use? How accurate was the GPS from your testing?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
Oh believe me, id back out if I could, but im stuck with it because the dealer stiffed me with some bullcrap policy (nonrefundable).

So now im forced to fight the fight to get asus to do the right thing while patching the holes, with you guys.

Unfortunately this thing is not a fix for me, looks like its for US and canada, im from europe.

(I didn't even know GPS was regional until now, to be honest.)

Not to mention the hideous shippingcosts it would get tagged with.

There's plenty of other super cheap GPS units out there on ebay that I could get,

but none are guaranteed to work as simply nobody has tried it.

I already have one laying around that's not willing to hitch with the prime properly. :(

This guy gets it.

I indeed don't have any other GPS gadgets, not even a smartphone.

There's a reason I went all out on tablet, I wanted only one device,

and I wanted it to be my "do all" jack of all trades gadget, including navigation.

I already told him in a PM that those kinds of assumptions are what bugs me..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] imb951:
Just got mine from ebay and it's much smaller than expected, which is a plus. I bought it to use in the car mainly with my console mounted Samsung Captivate, which also has crappy gps. It locked and held a lock while paired to my phone while driving around downtown Atlanta on this overcast afternoon using google nav. Something my phone has never, ever done. Worth the $23 to have the wall and car charger included.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
I use a USB charger I already had...had to buy a USB cable with the correct adapter...whatever you get, it needs to provide 5v dc & 1A

Make sure you install Bluetooth GPS or similar installed on the prime....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Sokonomi:
I did, but its just not seeing any of the data.

I can get the GPS unit to pair, I even get that stupid "0000" pin code query,

but after that it does nothing but sit there, showing no activity whatsoever.

Its a 7 year old receiver though, you think the protocol could have changed?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mikevipe:
amazon.com/3-5mm-Barrel-Jack-Power-Cable/dp/B003059FAI/ref=lh_ni_t

$1.69 free shipping charger for the tomtom

being I use my gps in my car this dongle is not bad, ill mount it on my dash hardwired to my radio units back usbp port.

You obviously do not travel over the Sierra Nevadas, prime wont even lock onto any satellites near the trees, works fine in the valley.

Let me guess your solution: Carry tree cutting and climbing gear to climb the tallest tree to lock on gps.

My solution: spend 7.81$ to mount a dedi bt gps in the vehicle, problem solved.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
That's right, in order to make Bluetooth GPS work on Prime you need the following:

1. GPS Signal

2. Bluetooth GPS receiver

3. Bluetooth pairing between receiver and Prime

4. Bluetooth GPS app on Prime to display GPS info

Hope it works for you. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flyingwolf:
Note to all, Unable to get TetherGPS to work. Keeps forceclosing on the prime.

As for those saying who cares if it does not work?

I do, I paid for it, it was advertised, it is now significantly not as advertised.

Send me a 100 dollar visa gift card and call it even if they must but I am out money for a device I cannot return and that does not function the way it was advertised.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
i use this, it works...

https://market.android.com/details?id=googoo.android.btgps&hl=en

also, make sure to enable "allow mock locations" - settings - {}developer options - allow mock locations

when you start Bluetooth GPS, also check Mock Locations....

don't know anything about protocols, but htis is what works for me:

sorry if you have tried this already, just providing possible answers...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flyingwolf:
Unfortunately I do not have a BT GPS unit, I was trying to use the TetherGPS program which allows you to use your phones GPS with your tablet, would have been perfect for me (yes I use my tablet for a large display GPS device).

Sadly no go.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
you still need this on the prime:

https://market.android.com/details?id=googoo.android.btgps&hl=en

I used my phone before I got my tomtom...

on my phone I used:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flyingwolf:
This, https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5jb21wdG9uc29mdC50Z3BzIl0.

Supposedly cuts out the need for the whole bluetooth pairing and multiple different applications thing.

As this communicated over a wifi network is there any particular reason I would need either of those two programs you just linked to?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fuzzer:
My solution is free to try.... I don't have experience with the wifi tether
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flyingwolf:
It barely works.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
Based on user comment at the Market, it appears the TetherGPS app worked on the Prime before upgrading to ICS. Hopefully the dev will release a fix, it's a very useful software.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dkb218:
The Transformer Prime TF700T will likely be the first tablet released to sport a 2.3-million-pixel, 1,920x1,200 screen. For those keeping count, that's more than twice the pixel count of any previous tablets, which top out at 1,280x800 (1.02 millions pixels). No release date but I think its worth the wait.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Itaintrite:
Good for you. I'm also waiting for my flying car.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I'm going to go take a dump. After that, I'm going to eat my yogurt for breakfast. Then I'll probably work on some press releases that I need to get written.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Someone Walkin':
Beats me why anyone is still considering buying Asus after the disregard they have so blatently shown for their customers.

I'll never purchase or allow to come into my home, another Asus product. There are plenty of other company's out there who haven't yet purposefully shafted their customer base.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
Thanks for the info. Ill update my dkb218 fansite now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
Sort of like posting on a forum for a product that you don't like made by a company you don't like.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Someone Walkin':
I posting here because I know they read this site. It's pretty pointless posting where I'm not sure they'll get it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Itaintrite:
And they should care about the opinions of someone who will never buy their products again?

It's kinda ironic though that the Transformers are the best software-supported tablets out there. Constant updates and usually among the first to get the latest.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dkb218:
Now that's...Mean.

Wait. I take it you're the early adapters who got stuck with the OLD version and are acting like you're on the rag because I posted this. Damn. Oh well.

Don't take in out on me little girle men. Call Asus and level a grip at them.

What else did I do today, you ask? I didn't by a Transformer Prime! HA, ha hardy har har!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lancer3397:
and then you'll be waiting after that when someone brings out an even snazzier toy.

at what point will you actually stop and buy?

TF700 is slated Q2 which if normal release cycles are anything to go by will be the back end of that quarter and that will be provided there are no delays. they have to be able to produce a 600+ nits screen that can do full HD on mass production levels and hope they don't encounter any other problems.

then you have have whether or not ICS will cope with a full HD screen on normal day to day use, will apps? will ICS need tweaking to work properly? will tegra 3 be able to handle full HD res without dragging its ass like a dog.

I'm buying the prime now, with a weather eye on the TF700 down the line. no reason to deny myself in the meantime. play with the prime. sell it six to seven months down the line and get the newer model sounds like a plan to me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dkb218:
You go on ahead and do that! Make sure you spell my name right this time. I know you have that learning disability but for crisp sake, it DKB218 not KDE32s. Get it right for the love of Pete! :D {LMAO}

You guys are so funny! I needed a good laugh. So, how's the Transformer!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjon90:
AWESOME..Loving ICS..:D I came from a Galaxy 10.1 which the Prime blows away!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
Was any of this supposed to make sense? plz reply soon, the public needs to know.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I was thinking the same thing. The people saying they canceled their preorders or returned the Prime b/c it's a "POS" but are waiting for the next Asus tablet really amuse me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Falhawk:
If I posted on forums for brands I no longer like it would be a 100hr/week job.

(get a life, move on, Asus is not a bad ex-girlfriend...though you sound like one)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] AmesCell:
My Prime works great.

I got ICS early.

I don't need GPS on a tablet, I've got a phone.

I really like the aluminum.

There is always going to be something better 4-6 months from now...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ORam78:
It's been confirmed that the 700 will hit the market in June.

[Android Themes] darius4cs:
Hey! New MIUI V4 it's just amazing but I wondered there are no working themes for it. The normal themes don't work and I don't know if it is a problem by the rom or the themes are not compatible.

Anyway, can somebody find working themes for miui v4 or know how to make them working?
[Android Themes] picard666:
i guess if you check the filenames, and change them if needed, they will surely work

the guys making the rom changed a bit on the file structure for v4
[Android Themes] darius4cs:
I thought that if I whould check the default theme mtz file and look up what are the changes, I can modify other themes to be like the default one :-?

But do ya know where is located the default MIUI theme?
[Android Themes] picard666:
make a backup of the default
[Android Themes] darius4cs:
did it but the file contains just 2 folders: "audioeffects" and "ringtones"
[Android Themes] picard666:
but it should contain some other files without extension. if you rename them to zip, you can find some files in it
[Android Themes] greg17477:
only if you added some customized parts in it. the default theme is integrated in the framework.
[Android Themes] tung91:
i just see little in default.mtz of one rom for Nexus S :(

Take a look inside all file in system/app and "framework-res.apk" and "framework-miui-res.apk" and i think we have almost we need, except icon for setting :( for Statusbar icon, it just has "E","G","3G" and "H" .. icon and arrow icon for up & down is separate :o hope i help you :D

Let's start make a v4 ICS theme for MIUI .............
[Android Themes] darius4cs:
Actually, your MeeGo theme I wanted to port for miui4.

But I think i can't. If you wanna do it :confused: :-??
[Android Themes] tung91:
i wish my phone can run miui ics :( why don't try get process name of system app and port the theme :) my phone can run old miui only :(
[Android Themes] picard666:
then you should decompile framework-res, framework-miui-res, settings, systemui and all the apps you want to theme and compare the filenames in drawable-hdpi mainly
[Android Themes] djees:
I'm on miui v4 too

If someone can help to port theme i can test it

I'm note sure what to do in decompile framework...
[Android Themes] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
i dont know anything about decompiling and i havent even seen miui v4 but maybe you can theme framework and system ui using ninja morph?
[Android Themes] Deleted member 3954645:
If anyone has even a single theme that was made for MIUI v4, that could be decompiled and edited. Or, the names of the files could be compared.

If anyone has a theme made for MIUI v4, please share.
[Android Themes] jambamkin:
I'm not lucky enough to have miui v4 yet, but aren't there themes available to download from the theme manager?

Sent from my DHD
[Android Themes] Deleted member 3954645:
I'm not on b4 yet. Flashed back to GB due to the themes issues.could someone check and retort back?
[Android Themes] Deleted member 3954645:
I flashed v4 to check theme manager.

Had the same themes as gingerbread miui.

Then i applied a theme that was working on gb.

The only things not themed were the launcher, because they renamed that to miuihome, and the dialer. I don't know why the dialer/phone wasn't themed. Even it's icon wasn't themed.
[Android Themes] boris0711:
Are you on Galnet's MIUI V4?
[Android Themes] Annex1:
The 2.3.7 MIUI Themes aren't compatible with V4 versions, so I decided to make a quick Template for all you MIUI Themers out there.

Template will work for all miui versions and phones as long as it V4.

*Reason why they don't apply right is the package names are different. so It's trying to apply to packages that aren't there anymore...

My quick Template has the right package names.

MIUI V4 Android Template
[Android Themes] boris0711:
Nice!! :):)

Maybe I'm gonna try to port a theme...

PS: How did you figure this out??
[Android Themes] :
No. Official MIUI V4 for Nexus S
[Android Themes] Annex1:
Its easy, All you do is look at the package name inside the APK.

It's in the AndroidManifest.xml :)
[Android Themes] djmace:
The phone icon on the desktop doesn't theme, its named correctly and when viewing in quick system info the icon is themed. Does it change for you?
[Android Themes] :
I'm still creating my v4 theme. So i can't report back right now, but that was the exact same issue I was having with gingerbread Miui themes on v4
[Android Themes] L0cke:
Hmmm, has anyone got a Theme to work yet? More specifically when theming the SystemUI, as in the template it's 'com.android.systemui' however they renamed this in v4 to 'MIUISystemUI'. I have tried both, but still no luck.
[Android Themes] darius4cs:
If there is a theme to be ported, this is the MeeUI theme (MeeGo). I think it's the best theme on MIUI!!
[Android Themes] Antennas:
I found that I could apply my old theme (from gingerbread) to my miui ICS port, and SystemUI was one of the parts that /did/ work. Obviously there were issues with filenames within this, but my custom toggle icons, and parts of the notification drawer were applying.

Therefore logic dictates that the folder is still com.android.systemui for that case at least.

I started porting my custom theme I was still working on for gingerbread, but have kind of come to the realisation that I prefer stock ICS to Miui ICS. Mind you Miui ICS is only just beginning (and I'm running it unofficially on DesireHD), but the aesthetic has really taken a step backwards in my book.

I might think about it when Miui is more complete, but currently it's looking like I'll be jumping on another bandwagon, despite how much harder it is to theme.
[Android Themes] boris0711:
Could you post it when you're finished??

Thnx
[Android Themes] clevercat:
waiting for download

hope this will be great
[Android Themes] L0cke:
Working now. It was the same as before, 'com.android.systemui'. I was doing something else wrong :-)
[Android Themes] darius4cs:
Can someone port this theme ?! It's pretty amazing!
[Android Themes] djmace:
I've found the issue with phone icon not changing. You need to add activities to the name as below.

com.android.contacts.activities.TwelveKeyDialer.png
[Android Themes] confusedmuse:
Does it still have the low volume problem?
[Android Themes] TrissyGE:
Would this themes support LDPI and MDPI?

Now with Open Sorce we have MIUI, too and it would be nice if the themers make the themes compatible for all of the MIUI v4 ROMs :D
[HTC Sensation] stroobach:
hey guys

I was wondering if anyone was interested in some awesome facts,

I always wondered why root is called root, why android is called android etc.

So here are some facts about android/linux;

Root is the user name or account that by default has access to all commands and files on a Linux or other Unix-like operating system.

It is also referred to as the root account, root user and the superuser.

Who and why started xda?

most info found here:

http://www.xda-developers.com/feature/xda-developers-the-history-part-one/

http://www.xda-developers.com/feature/xda-developers-the-history-part-two/

Iphone store?/Icenter?

Why arent there any Android stores?

Well,, there is one AFAIK:

The carrier Telstra opened the world's first Android store, Androidland, on Bourke Street, Melbourne in December 2011

Why android is called android,

i couldnt find much about this one,

But an "Android" is a robot that is designed to look and act like a human.

so i guess Google wants a phone that is as smart as a human,

who started android?

Turns out to be,, Android isnt made by Google, Google bougth it,

There isnt anywhere mantioned on google who made the first ANdroid,

only that android is bought by Google.

Why are the android versions called after a dessert?

As it turns out, all Android operating systems are named after desserts.

And, just in case that wasn't nerdy enough for you,

Google put these sugary names in alphabetical order.

If you Got another awesome fact that you want to share.? PM me or leave it behind here :)

And c'mon, there is plenty of info on Google about android.

Now root and superuser have come from Linux, which as you should know by now is a base for Android.
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Cool information, thanks.
[HTC Sensation] foxmeister:
Root and superuser are in UNIX which predates Linux by decades. I won't say the terms come from Unix though as they probably exist in one of Unix's predecessors! :)
[HTC Sensation] Hansge:
Very usefull information. Always wondered why its called "root"
[HTC Sensation] Gödel:
Everyone here should use Linux. It's like Custom ROM on your computer!

On Linux, you can view your file system as a "tree", where files are leaves and a directory is a branch connecting to its underlying directory. Obviously, root is the directory from which you cannot go further down, i.e. "/". The one who has fully access to it, is therefore called root I guess.
[LG Optimus 3D] Splashmania:
I flashed the KZ file with lg update software as explained in the XDA thread but I could not get the process to work right. My phone kept disconnecting at 28% and it would not turn on no matter what I did. It would only make a short vibrate as if it was turning on, and the computer would notice it but only for a short time. And never once did a light on the screen, or LG logo, or anything at all ever appear.

I figured I had really screwed it up, but when I plugged it into the wall it booted up perfectly. All my data was in tact and the rom i had flashed through cwm was still there, not the kdz file that I flashed with the lg software.. I noticed that my sim card did not come up as being in the phone at all. I looked in system setting status and noticed that all info related to my imei said unknown. I opened up the mfg app (277634#*# from the phone app).. Under "version info" then "factory version" my phone now says xmm6260.. It always used to say p925..etc... Even after flashing the zip to debrand from at&t this never changed from p925 even when every other aspect of my phone has.. I was hoping maybe once I put in an activated sim card everything would be fine and my phone would be unlocked which is why i flashed through lg software.. But seeing as how other people are having this similar issue and their phones not seeing the sim card, well im looking for some advice.. Should I try and re flash kdz file through lg software again? if i do, im going to do it on my XP computer this time, not Windows 7..

Just wanted to add that I did try wiping data and cache from cm and no dice.. Root and CMW work fine but no matter what I do, if my phone is turned off, i cannot boot up or boot to cwm or boot at all unless i plug the phone into a wall carger and then once its on it stays on and i can unlug.. SORRY ABOUT THE LONG POST, THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP..
[LG Optimus 3D] jimakos29:
You can try installing gb baseband as explained in the forums and then a custom rom all via cwm then once you get your phone fully operational again reflash whatever you want again... But that's just my opinion...
[LG Optimus 3D] hundekopf23:
When the imei is not shown properly it is probably a bigger software damage. U could try to format the internal sd and wipe everything with cwm and install another custom rom. Otherwise as you wrote, you could change the pc and try to flash the kdz again. If u got problems flashing it with another pc maybe something with the hardware is damaged.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jotha:
I have made some splashscreen replacements for my Nexus. But in contrary to all my prior phones where the fastboot command: "fastboot flash splash splash.img" or "fastboot flash splash1 splash.img" worked, both give me an "unknown partition" error on this phone.

So does anybody know how that partition is named on GNex or if maybe on GNex the splashscreen is handled totally different.

Thx in advance ;).
