[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pinku1:
Hello, I have received my Asus Transformer Prime yesterday, Every thing is working perfect and I am on ICS. But today I have noticed that when ever I try to attach any storage device like usb thumb drives and external hard drives to prime. Prime is not able to find if I have attached anything to it. But I can see light on my usb drives.

Any idea whats wrong? Is this just me or I need to do something to make it work?

Please help. Thanks in advance!

What file explorer are you using to access it? Mine works fine with Root Explorer......
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yegoshin:
Just walked into my local fry's (santa clara, ca) an they had at least one box. Oh and they do pricematch to the web. :D

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EVOXGSR:
I've heard certain sites aren't legitimate enough for them, a little finicky. And you still have to pay tax unfortunately, CA. But still a great find!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
$800? Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yegoshin:
It really depends on a store manager on duty at the time, I have price-matched stuff below their cost before (store manager is the only one to approve of that) you just have to be nice about it.

Also yes there is the killer CA tax, but you will probably get US warranty since its sold here and if anything your CC could maybe even double it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jayrod1980:
better be the 32gb version for that price
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] predation:
not a chance. US samsung will not warranty this phone as the GSM version is not officially offered in the US.

the only good thing about this is being able to return/exchange while you have your 30 day window.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
That's overpriced for the 32gb even rofl. That's an absolutely retarded price for a phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] serialtoon:
Same price of an iPhone 4S 32GB :-D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
And your point? That's overpriced too rofl.

Also, think I'll call the Fry's here in WA and see if they'll price match online. if I can get a price match I'd rather buy it there than wait for shipping.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lancez:
I paid 660 cash w/o tax at a local cellphone store, no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
The tax would make me cry at a B&M
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pakxelaos:
Newegg sell for $689.99
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
And other importers will beat that by about $25-$30. Handtec is $650 shipped, Clove is $660. I think Negrielectronics is ~$656 (best price as no chance that your CC company will charge foreign trans fee).

I saw this in the framework bool. Could I use this somehow to get a LED notification? Someone please tell me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] developersdevelopers:
...you mean notification from the camera LED?

If you want to be alerted when you have a notification just flash a kernel that has BLN support.
[HTC Rezound] txkorm:
Is anyone else having issues with either Beats Audio or the HTC Music player? Mine has just starting giving me issues today. It will play for about 30 seconds and shut off. The Beats logo will dissapear and then I can't get the song to start again without me backing out of the player and then opening it back up. Then it will shut down again. I've reset twice and still the problem exists. I can scroll through all of my songs, so the app can obviously access my SD card. I can play music just fine on other players. My Rezound is Stock.
[HTC Rezound] txkorm:
Looks like I'm alone in this one.... SOL. That's a first for me.

KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] shawnb1824:
My first Rezound would shut off or reboot when I was using the stock music player or Poweramp. I could listen for 10 to 20 minutes before it would happen. I exchanged it for a new one and haven't had any issues.
[HTC Rezound] eldoon:
Have you tried a factory reset?
[HTC Rezound] txkorm:
It just started up today and I figured I'd ask around before I did that. Hell, if I can't fix it, I may just give up on beats rather than a Factory reset.

It seems like I've been downloading this phone for more than 3 hours,does it take that long? I put the phone on the charger and it had 10% left and its still charging,Is that normal?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] winwiz:
takes me about 1.5-2 hrs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] silverramsrt:
When I use the Samsung charger, it will charge from 20% to 90% in less than an hour
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buff McBigstuff:
Yeah mine too. Imo It is the fastest charging phone ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilsonlam97:
I took a nap for 3 hours. My phone was nearly dead and when I woke up it was fully charged.

Just as fast as my previous level iPhone 4.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
So most (all?) Android phones all you to enter in SIP credentials from settings>call>Internet call settings. I have a few SIP accounts that I have entered, but it only seems to initialize when I am on wifi. Given that I regularly have 4G service I would like to be able to receive incoming calls on these accounts. Is there any way to disable to wifi requirement? I find it strange that this is still enabled given that I am running a non stock ROM!
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
BesT THING TO DO IS DELETE YOUR setting and download csimple or the link underneath here and with this software you can use your 4g or 3g service for internet calling.beside i had the same problem it wouldn't let me make call through hsdpa or 3.5g. so after downloading everytrhing is working perfectly.

link

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.csipsimple&hl=en
[HTC Sensation] paulmor:
In all stock and custom ROMs that I have tried Internet Calling is available on WIFI only.

You would therefore need a third party app such as cSipsimple, Sipdroid, Bria or Acrobits.

You also need to check if you provider allows SIP calls. I am on Vodafone UK and they allow it only to customers with 900 minutes(or more) monthly plan, others are blocked.

Shery4life: giffgaff is a virtual provider, which network do they use?
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
I was considering using CSimple, however it is my understanding that it must be used with a 3rd party hosted pbx (or your own pbx of course). Can it be used standalone on the phone?
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
Well, if the following instructions are followed you can enable it regardless of whether your carrier allows it. However, I dont feel comfortable making the changes suggested in the link.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1354838
[HTC Sensation] paulmor:
All the apps in my post are standalone and do not require any hosted PBX. You will need username, password and SIP server info from your SIP provider.

The link you have provided will enable the internal SIP client of Android to work over 3G/H, which is what you have asked in the openning post.

It will not enable SIP if your mobile provider blocks it
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
So I decided to try out Csipsimple and it seems to do the trick. However, I would prefer to use the native app if possible do to more efficient battery use (allegedly). If anyone can create a flashable zip from my original link that would be great.
[HTC Sensation] paulmor:
The ROM that I am using has been prepared by someone who does not post it on XDA.

It's called SENSITY and it's based on the European stock ROM 1.xx.401.x.

This Chef has actually created a flashable ZIP file for this purpose. Link:

http://www.multiupload.com/OEQMIVKJYW.

He has tested it only on his own ROM, but THINKS it will work on any rom based on the above.

If you want to test it, make a NAND backup first and give it a try.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
Thanks bud! Just so I am clear, is that zip supposed to enable SIP calling while on the carriers network (using my current ROM) or is it a whole new ROM with that function enabled?
[HTC Sensation] paulmor:
It is JUST to enable Internet (SIP) Calls from your native application.

The guy just used the instructions in the link that you had provided and produced a ZIP file that would lift the WiFi only restriction.IT IS NOT A NEW ROM. You would retain your cuurent ROM. Once you have flashed it, let us know if it worked.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
Thanks, I will test it out shortly and get back to you.
[HTC Sensation] paulmor:
I flashed the ZIP file from my post above and it worked. It removed the Wifi only from the native SIP Client (Settings>Call>Use Internet Calling).

However, I did not find this application to be user friendly.

1.	There is no indication whether the account has successfully registered with the SIP provider.

2.	When using multiple providers, you would need to go back to settings each time you want to change the account to be used.

Third party applications do show state of account registration and let you choose the account to be used from the dialler screen.

For now, I will stick with Acrobits and CsipSimple.
[HTC Sensation] webmaster:
Thank you for reporting back on this, I still have not had the opportunity to flash it myself. However, I did want to point out that the native Android app does support the functions you just mentioned. You can check the status of each SIP connection by going to settings>call>Internet call settings. Once there, select "use internet calling" and change it to "ask for each call". Also be sure that you have "receive incoming calls" checked if you want to do more than just place calls. In either case thanks for the link, I will try both methods and see if one has a significant advantage.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
There have been massive bombs on the Asus facebook page (North America) about asus discontinuing their products??!?! can anyone confirm this? The closest proof I have is this website saying that its discontinued. If anyone knows, that would be great!! :eek:

I have a website saying it on excaliber pc.com (for some reason, it wont let me post a website)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DroidHam:
You are about 18 hours late on this, read the threads before shouting the sky is falling :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
can you post the url s to the threads?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
First: OH MY FREAKING GOD, ANOTHER THREAD ON THIS RIDICULOUS ALREADY DEBUNKED RUMOR!

Second: Do you mean, ASUS discontinuing ALL OF their products? Because certainly we know that's not true. Right? RIGHT?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
ok, I have not seen any threads on this. how is this debunked? and im only talking about the TF201 (stated in the thread title)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
No offense, but seriously? You can't find any threads on this? Crazy.

It's debunked because in at least one of those threads that you can't find, an ASUS rep has stated unequivocally that the TF201 isn't being discontinued. Certainly, we have to go by his word vs. random speculation based on confusing and unclear retailer out-of-stock verbiage?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cozmo85:
Guy at bestbuy here told me they didn't expect anymore stock and they pulled the display materials.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Awhh **** I do not want a discontinued tablet! We won't have any developers!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
ok, thanks for the update. Still makes you wonder though with the bombardment of hate feeds on the prime. Hope they did make a "new batch" of them that improves its problems. Doubt it though
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cozmo85:
As long as the software works with android 4.0 it should work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Wow your dumb I do not want app developers ROM developers! Kernels ect.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] grumblers:
Looks like Asus gets a big fat FAIL for communicating with their vendors also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
So is it or isn't it? I don't want a product which was in stores for like a month and then pulled back. I mean, what the F are those guys there over at Asus doing?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cozmo85:
You bought a transformer prime and I'M the dumb one?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Why it will be the best performing quadcore tablet! Because of the resolution! Will be lower than the other ones! Everyone will be playing shadowgun at 30fps and you can play it at 60fps. And it will be a limited edition! Plus it has one of the coolest names for a tablet!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
Apparently an Asus rep said that it is not discontinued. Honestly said, its hard to find out if its true or not. Then again though, they are selling alot. Im not sure though how many are returning theirs back. But if I had a product that is failing, I wouldn't tell people that its becoming discontinued.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BostonDan2:
TF201-Not Discontinued

Quoting Gary from Asus: "The TF201 is not discontinued. I have no idea how many times this needs to be said but the TF201 is not discontinued."

Although the product may not be discontinued, it does feel like ASUS is not committed to this platfom given the information retailers are providing.

Can ASUS please state:

1) Is ASUS continuing to manufacture the TF201?

2) How long does ASUS expect to continue manufacturing the TF201?

3) Is there a reason why some retailers are no longer accepting orders and why other retailers are just not even selling it anymore?

4) Is ASUS committed to the Tegra-3 processor?

5) How long can buyers expect to receive firmware and other software updates to the TF201 platform?

Appreciate your help with putting this to bed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Where there's smoke, there's usually fire.

My hope is that the current model is being discontinued for a newer model with a fixed backplate, and that we early adopters can exchange our models for the newer one. Otherwise...well....I don't know what to say.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
THIS IS TRUE. IF PEOPLE CANT GET IT THROUGH THEIR THICK SKULLS THEN OH WELL. THE TF-201 IS NOT, I REPEAT..LOL is NOT BEING DISCONTINUED.

check out my new thread, News Flash where alot of these rumors are debunked/proven wrong from source straight from Asus. An official high ranking person there. not some dinky customer service or Best Buy floor manager..lmfao
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
Does that mean retail vendors are simply scared to get them in stock? Or is Asus having issues in production? Or does Hasbro have something to do with "delays" in arriving to retail vendors...

That and.. it's based on your "mysterious" source.. of which, somehow.. you were chosen as the person to get in touch with.

But yea, it's simply too foolish for Asus to discontinue TF201 atm... otherwise, you'll see an explosion of negative coverage, press, media.. and other chaotic problem that Asus just simply cannot deal with. Asus can't be that ILLOGICAL ...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] FrameCityJackal:
Ummm gamestop and a few other places are selling them.

It might be bestbuy got some sort of system **** up or its EOL until notified.

At my store we had to pull all Droid Bionic **** because all our ESN's were coming up stolen which obviously they weren't.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MaximusDog:
Just my 2 cents. Right now all this is speculation. Your guess is as good as anyone's. If I was Asus, I would do a SKU change. The new product, can then be said to not include GPS. So they would then be cleared of not delivering to what was advertised. For example, call the new revision "Transformer Prime+ TF202". Can't complain that GPS doesn't work because this new version never said it had GPS on it. Limits number of liabilities moving forward. Like I said, just my 2 cents and your guess is as good as anyone's.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gogol:
Well, I don't think I can believe ASUS anymore after seeing this TF201 debacle.

The TF201 is becoming controversial.

It is loosing resale value due to the bad news about dead gps and weak WiFi.

It's been discounted already.

I really hope the current model will be discontinued and replaced with newer model with fixed back plate.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] killscreen:
?

what is the problem here?

lol!

ouuuuh....... ahhhh....... my life sux now if my tab is d.o.a.

...but it won't be...take a deep breath dudes..

a lot of fixes are coming and everything will be ok at the end..

...it's not dec21 2012 yet
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheKricket:
This may actually be what's happening - they may have to re-label every single box they have to remove the "GPS" language...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] _Gir_:
That sounds very logical. I hope it rubs off on others.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 3rdamention:
After talking to Asus on the Phone, filling out Tech Requests, listening to Gary on these forums, and listening to your "secret super insider with information straight from the horses mouth," I really have no faith in anything Asus is saying. If they were so confident in this product, they wouldn't be ignoring my requests.

They would make a statement of some sort, trying to figure out the "Serial Number Unknown" statement. Hell, even Gary said the Service guys had 3 "Serial Number Unknown" tablets and 2 of them were Rooted, which is impossible.

And you said in the other thread that "Serial Number Unknown" must be from people who tried to root it, which IS DEFINITELY not true.

Demandarin, I give you all the credit and respect in the world. I mean, you are working your butt off in every thread in this forum, debunking everything, touting your Perfect Prime, quoting the most inside source at Asus, YOU should be the Asus Rep on these boards. You are working harder than Gary is.

Keep fighting the good fight bro!

I also noticed Amazon Reviews are reflecting many of the prime issues as well.

The average right now is 3.5 stars. It was over 4 just a few days ago.

There are more and more 1 and 2 star ratings, which I think is a very small sample, and not necessarily the most accurate, but still a good idea that there are many more issues with this Tablet than many of the Veterans and Legends on this board seem to want to admit.

Dear David,

Thank you for contacting Newegg.

First and foremost I apologize about any inconvenience this may have caused you, but I would be more than happy to assist you with this issue! After reviewing our inventory information, it does appear that the item did come back into stock last week and had sold out by Friday, 1/6/12. The item has been deactivated temporarily, but our records do indicate that we had placed more order with our vendor last week after the product had sold out. Normally it can take up to 1 - 2 weeks for the item to arrive and updated on our website, so you should be able to see the product back in stock by the end of next week. Once again, I apologize about the inconvenience, but I would like to thank you for your patience and understanding.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
very funny. you made me laugh. plus who said it was some super secret source? :rolleyes: I just asked the right questions to the right person when i had the chance.

some other members heard same thing that the tf-201 was not discontinued.

You are funny though. Amazon reviews are inaccurate anyways because people went up there and gave it bad reviews over bootloader issues. Alot of them didn't even own a Prime. You don't remember the thread a member made on it asking people to stop? lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MHoefler:
The TF201 is not discontinued but it will be sold as a new hardware revision. So there will be a TF201 in the future (maybe called TF201a or something like this), but with hardware changes to correct the GPS, WIFI+BT, issues, etc. That's the reason that most shops are not getting the TF201 anymore - they have to wait until the new hardware revision is finished. Should not take long though...

This is the only reasonable way for Asus to handle this, because continuing to produce the faulty models would be just plain stupid!

I just hope they will fix the SD card alignment problem as well, because it's unacceptable that the card sticks out! Maybe these morons thought they would sell more 64 GB models if the use of the SD card would be as awkward as possible?

Regards!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
What I don't get is, why would this be a shock to anyone?

You should already be aware of the problems the TF201 reportedly has since it's launch, (technically before it's launch) from users that ASUS has acknowledged directly and indirectly.

People have been screaming legal action for weeks against ASUS over what some feel is a massive defraud of marketing.

Not to mention they are also in a legal dispute over the product's name.

Some where common sense should be kicking in to you guys that this TF201 is likely going to be around for just a short while due to all these issues surrounding it.

-------

Threads like this and some of the comments are equivalent to that of Herman Cain's Presidential run and those could not predict him resigning from the campaign race, despite all the allege sexual harassment and affair charges and reports that surfaced that tainted his campaign run.

It was pretty obvious that he was going to resign just like it's obvious that ASUS is going to discontinue to the TF201.

1. As for the Serial Number Unknown problem, please try doing a factory reset. If it does not work the first time, after the reboot, please try it again and once at the desktop, wait about 10~15 minutes for the system to sync with the server. So far this has worked for users I am directly assisting at the moment on another forum but it has not worked on two particular units that were returned yesterday.

2. As for making statements, until we are sure about the replication of issues and a solid fix for the problem we are not going to make statements that might lead users down the wrong path.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] junrider:
Just returned my Prime that arrived yesterday because of a dead pixel into bestbuy today. Lady told me that their manager told her that they are pulling the prime from their stocks and being discountinued because a newer and better one is coming out (TF700T). I am like you sure? This was just released late December and the TF700T is not going to out till Q2. So I told her to do an OMS on the prime and sure enough the warehouse has them instock. But it makes you think last time Bestbuy has the prime instock was Jan 7, it looks like they are saving the warehouse stock for returns and OMS orders. But thats what the Bestbuy Customer Service lady told me of what her manager said about the prime just a few minutes ago.

Kinda bummed, but a few more months waiting and a 100 dollar increase for a better GPS and wifi, I think Ill take my chances with the prime (TF201).
