[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sledgie:
You don't need to unlock it to try the mod. Heck you don't even need to root it. Just make backups...that is the key ingredient.

That being said I'm glad this came around when it did. And it would make sense, in some regards, unless people have faulty hardware...

Think of it this way...if there are wifi and bt problems on early models, then there are 3 possible scenarios. There can be software issues, or hardware issues, or both.

I think the earlier builds had more hardware issues than software, but I have no "scientific proof". I can only state from experience from my BCO pos (which is all fairness, was beautiful, awesome, but ran poorly with wif and bt).

But....back when we were on....what...03 firmware? One of the first ICS buiilds, my Apple BT keyboard worked almost perfect. There was little interference and decreased wifi.. But if i added my Logitech VX470 mouse it went caput...link speed 26Mbps to 1Mbps to nothing....

As time and updates increased, my Apple BT keyboard became unusable...My mouse constantly failed whether it was connected with wifi or not. I do a lot of presentations so it was imperative that i had a pointer device.

Then using my BT headphones, netflix would just stop. Funny, because i even logged into the website and used the absolutely lowest bandstream it would allow....bt still disconnected.

Now, the latest firmware (.21) showed that Asus most likely increased the wifi strength to compensate for poor wifi connection. In doing so, I couldn't stream BT past 3 feet just playing mp3s. It was pathetic. I got so angry. Excuse after excuse and no reply from Gary in this thread.

That being said, I think if the wifi scan interval is the key, this could change a lot for people. And the reason is simple : there might not be any other way to increase BT/WIFI usage. If my C4 prime works fine without any modification to the build.prop, then that tells me there was a wifi/bt hardware issue with my earlier prime (under the conditions that i upgrade to .21 as well). If my C4 works even BETTER now with the modified build, upgrade to .21, then it tells me it was more likely both hardware and software. If the BCO users get the same results, especially better wifi/bt increase, then it means you guys don't have to swap it for a newer model or demand a C4 from Asus.

I'm glad this came along when it did. I've done a lot of testing over the weekend with this new C4 and before I read Demandarin's thread I came up with 1 conclusion - those people who have older BCO/C1 non working BT/Wifi primes should swap out because it's OBVIOUS that Asus isn't going to focus on the wifi/bt issue anymore from lack of response from Gary Key in this thread. I don't know what the new update contains, but if gaming issues are a priority, you can bet your bottom dollar you should swap it and wifi/bt issues seem moot to Asus at this time. now i know gaming issues aren't the only things they are looking at but by the response of "power users" who have tested, it seems crashes while browsing, resets, and gaming were at the top of the list, "among other issues", i.e. not focusing on wifi/bt.

Try the modification but read the instructions carefully. Make sure you BACK UP your build.prop and anything else the thread states. If you aren't satisfied, read the above 2 paragraphs again.
