I'm with the OP, but about rooting to get wifi...I pay 100 bucks a month for a phone that supposedly have unlimited data 4g.....and the only difference is that I want to use it on my other device. I should be allowed that....that seems more justified.

>Enough with the soap box high horse nonsense. Sheesh. No one here gives a crap about insurance fraud and copyright infringement.

I do. This forum does.

Insurance fraud is a crime. Those who commit fraud drives up the costs for everybody, including those who think it's "OK."

>Hows that fraud?? My insurance allows for ANY damage to my laptop.

You should learn to read your insurance policy. I doubt that it covers deliberate destruction of an item for purpose of collecting on the insurance. In short, it doesn't cover fraud. In fact, insurance fraud is a crime.

>You might think my MORALS are off, but I could care less.

Read the rules to this forum. "Don't get us in trouble." Admitting to a crime on this forum violates that rule. If you persist, we'll see how long you stay on this forum.

Reps will tell you whatever they need to, to sell a policy. Unless you have it in writing, then it's irrelevant.

https://www.squaretrade.com/pages/learn-more-warranty-buyer

SquareTrade standard warranty covers "mechanical and electrical failures that occur during normal use."

If you paid extra for Accidental Damage, then that applies. "It does not cover loss, willful damage or gross misuse."

Note the "pre-existing condition" exclusion: A design or manufacturing defect (bad GPS/wifi) would be "a pre-existing condition" and would be excluded.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ljwnow:
Exactly... Tired of seeing this. What are people thinking about these days...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skygunner27:
Lame.

Most of the posts here are trolls trying to convince the rest of us(including themselves) to settle for being spoon fed mouth to mouth by Asus and to accept any old PoS they throw at us for 499.99 or 399.99(ATP).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
>Lol.... Come on, man. Obviously he wouldn't tell SquareTrade that he threw it against a wall <.<

That's why it's called insurance fraud.

>The OP was about Asus and their poor customer service/tech support. Not insurance fraud....

>Consider this thread ruined....LMFAO

The thread is a rant by an ignoramus who doesn't know that he is committing fraud. It has no redeeming value to begin with. If there is a value, then it's to make him realize that fraud is not OK. Yes, he can likely get away with it. That doesn't mean others should put up with his stupidity. I won't.

There are a lot of dumb-asses in this thread who subscribe to the "it's wrong only if you get caught" school of thought. Suffice it to say that I'm not one of you.

As for Asus' response, it's not a shocker. There is no fix for "weak" GPS or wifi. What's "weak" is subject to interpretation, and I'm not surprised Asus techsupp interpreted in their favor. Asus have already signal their intention by pulling GPS from the specs.

RMA is good when a problem is clear-cut. It's a nightmare when it's a subjective, or intermittent issue. That's why I always advise people to use their return warranty before RMA. Once you forgo your return privilege, then you are at the mercy of the dictates of the manufacturer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Minupla:
This is probably most useful piece of advice in this thread. I had the horizontal banding issue. Called Asus, they offered RMA. I said, "No thanks, now that I know it's a hardware defect, I'll take it back to the retailer".

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tdrussell:
How did you deduce this? There is already a software fix being soak-tested that seems to fix the problem.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
Thanks to nyijedi for his prompting.

I've sent a notification to SquareTrade regarding "Frank Funes" aka g0t0 and his intent to commit fraud. (I'm assuming ST is the popular gadget insurance nowaday.) Enclosed in the notification is a screen cap of the original post as well as a link to this thread. I've preserved Frank's various posts elaborating on his intent here for purpose of the notification.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fingery:
Given the QC issues with the hardware and the problems with ICS thus far you'll have to forgive me if i have little faith.

After all, they give us a date for ICS which everybody is happy with and looking forward to then having presumably completed testing, push it out early with a raft of problems.

Anyone wager the next release will be 2 steps forward and another one back as they bork something else?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Caanon:
It's not; it's a software issue. I'm beta-testing a ROM that fixes it, straight from ASUS software dev team. I can confirm that my banding issue was fixed via a software update.

Discussing insurance fraud will not be tolerated on xda. This is illegal and is what drives up insurance prices for the rest of us.

if any flashing is done on a phone flashed to boost will changing the rom affect anything dealing with the phone being on boost i.e if i flashed CM7 will the phone still work on boost
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grimmace4:
Flashing ROMs will not affect the low level changes you made to get your phone on Boost. Your phone will work fine with CM.

Keep in mind that Boost Mobile uses a different MMS message server address than Sprint. It is easy to change on Sense (stock) by dialing ##3282# but AOSP ROMs like CM do not have dialer codes so you have to change it in a different way.

So in short everything will work fine, except you may not be able to send pictures by text until you figure out how to change the MMS server address.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmrox117:
In theory it should work just fine because roms dont change your radios, so it should all work fine as far as i know
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nevrlow:
To change the MMS setting what you need to do is go to your apps and find the "voice dialer" open it and say "edit apns" that will take you to where you need to be to set the correct mms settings.

Any help greatly appreciated :-D
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuturePrimitive:
You will have to unlock the bootloader in order to flash anything, no way around that.

EDIT: Maybe I misinterpreted your question, are you looking for an ICS build without root? Or looking to flash to ICS without having to root first?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaylward:
Based on your criteria you'll have to wait for the official OTA update.

The main issue for me in LP1 & LP2 is the signal strength bars which are static / locked at full strength. Signal strength in Status reports 0 dBm 97 asu and this doesn't change even if I remove the sim or try a different one – tried Vodafone payg and O2 contract sim cards, both UK. I've done several reboots and a factory reset.

It's not relate this time to a Nitz issue, simple APN not configure proprely....I had the no data issue.To solve it i just flash a french CSC (i9100XEFKJ1) from Intra thread, and voila....it's fully functional now...

I first flashed "I9100XXPA_I9100OXAKPA_OXA"

and an hour later I flashed "I9100XXLP2_I9100OXALP2_OXA"

But now that I'm trying it out I've found 2 problems:

1. Holding down the power button doesn't bring up the options "3G, Silent Mode etc." but instead it just shuts off the phone.

2. The home button doesn't work for home and also doesn't work for task manager/multitasking.

Although I have these problems, I've seen people do videos on this release and they dont have these problems as I do.

So does anyone know what I can do about it so I can fix it?

no wipe manually data, system and cache, your backup will be saved on internal memory, if you don't like your new flashed rom just restore backup and all the wiped data will return, (search for backup using CWM)

btw backup before u wipe !
[Galaxy S II General] goyagoyago:
I would imagine they would try to sell more of the sgs2 than the GN

Evidence for this?

They didn't include an sd card slot or downgraded to a 5MP camera.

But that's just my opinion :p

EDIT: But then again, they might be purposely slow on the update for SGS2 to promote sales for the GN. Who knows :p

on the 4.0.1 roms you had the ICS way of closing apps by sliding them and the samsung stock task manager.

People will keep asking, they can't seem to comprehend that here on XDA and other forums we make up a small minority of S2 users and that Samsung will cater to the majority of owners who couldn't care less about ICS - they want it to look the same tomorrow as it did yesterday.
[Galaxy S II General] fro5tie:
Do u really need ICS and LEAK twice in the thread title? Would it not be better to stress this is a pre release/beta and as such not useful for daily use, or noobs will flock and complain when things don't work!
