[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] compuw22c:
Also sent a PM, also got a response earlier, this guy Gary really sounds like he'd like to help, so let's try and give him all the info he needs and help him help us. Below I've included the majority of my message to him to also share with the forum in an attempt to help us identify affected batches, scenarios and solution. Thanks again Gary! AWESOME device, lets make it perfect!

If you need any more info or beta testers, let me know. (Also, an unlocking tool would be cool, I imagine it's in the pipeline after fixing issues...)

Thanks again for helping us out with this!

The following below is a copy of my Tuesday message: -----------------------------------------------------------------Hello again Gary. We spoke last week regarding BT/Wifi as well as GPS issues. I'd like to follow up with my experiences regarding the ICS updates.

All issues remain unchanged. While I personally have never had an issue with Wifi by itself (granted I'm in a fairly small house so my range requirements aren't too much), the BT/WIFI interference issue still exists the same as it did before. Same with the GPS. I have attached 2 screenshots showing both the typical, unable-to-lock situation showing high SNR (good signal) as well as a successful lock at a slightly lower SNR across the board. Both screenshots are indoors, as I seem to have the same luck indoors and out and I'd rather not be cold. It's also losing all satellites randomly as before. However, this issue is not my main concern (though I see it as important nonetheless, particularly knowing the aluminum isn't responsible for the instability, it is much more likely in software given it can get a decent signal, but not hold it).

My main concern is the BT/Wifi interference. I don't believe I'm alone in this, as I could agree that most will not use GPS for navigation, I believe MANY people want to use BT headphones (especially given the weak speaker) while watching netflix, hulu, etc, or even just listening to music while browsing the internet. I believe this should be the main concern for your development teams going forward. I did want to mention that in my digging around forums and teardowns I believe the TF201 uses 2 wifi controllers, one by azurewave? and the other, most likely not meant to be active, is also embedded within the GPS/BT/Wifi chip (Broadcom). I would not be surprised if the issue between BT and Wifi has something to do with either the interaction between these controllers (maybe both wifi radios are active and are freaking each other out, when only the azurewave should be active for wifi and the broadcom for BT)

I would greatly appreciate you forwarding the following link to your development team for them to at least look at and see if there might be something of use: http://xdaforums.com/show...1433699&page=2 This is the thread where I found evidence of the 2 wifi controllers.

Regarding some of the 'crazy' threads going on right now with people saying they think they deserve the new tf700, I think that's going way overboard and completely unrealistic, HOWEVER, if a redesigned backplate for the tf201 is a possibility I think a lot of people here would be extremely grateful and the people bashing asus would turn on a dime.

Again, I greatly appreciate you being here on these boards as well as your help with resolving his matter. I was optimistic that ICS would at least resolve the BT/Wifi issue and I won't lie, I'm extremely disappointed in Asus at the moment. I am however still very glad to have a contact here on the forums and hope we can work together to resolve some of these issues. In the meantime, since I am running DD-WRT and have access to a large set of options to play with, I'll be doing just that to see if by chance its an issue of what channel you're on or something to that effect that might resolve the BT/Wifi Issue. Thank you again for your help and facilitation of communication to the Asus devs that have the power to make this device the great device it should be!

(Channel changes and other router settings could SLIGHTLY reduce but never eliminate the problem)
