hi. im trying to play FALLOUT on my xperia mini.

i installed full DOS version into my pc and then all folders of the game copy into my phone. after opening fallout.exe in ADOSBOX it seems like the game is about to start but after logo "PLEASE STAND BY" (its the logo right before video will play) it jumps back to command line.....

anny idea how to fix this problem?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] sirmarcelot:
have you tried increasing the cpu cycles before running it?

also, perhaps its the sound configuration, try running the setup.exe or similar (i mean the fallout config, not dosbox) to change the sound config to NONE

The last few days my TF101 keeps draining over night, when I look at my battery stats it says 98% is Wifi. I'm not sure what is happening, should I think it is the Dock battery drain problem, or do you think I have a bad app that is keeping wifi going ? If so, how can I find it? I am on a custom rom Revolution 2.3.0 and was wondering if I may be better off trying to go back to the stock WW rom but with root? in preparation for ICS?

Also could this be sleep problem maybe?

Check your apps. To test this, just before you put the TF to sleep. go into wifi settings and set wifi to go off when screen does. put it to sleep. I found this works, but something is resetting wifi off to never once you wake it up. Permissions on most apps are way more than needed.

I chased this up recently in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1276670

I've found the same issue, something is resetting my wifi policy - probably some app or service I've downloaded.

I'm running Revolver 3.11.1 with default rom and even after flashing and trying the old dock firmwire I'm not having any luck. I've been investigating writing a service to identify and log changes so I can track the culprit, in the meantime I'm using auto airplane off as someone else suggested, its a perfectly working alternative but I'd rather minimise the bits and pieces trying to regulate what should be normal system controls...(given thats likely what got us here in the first place ;))

With the results of the vote in the GPS (possible issue) thread running at 30% functionality, left me asking what are the other 70% of us doing wrong?

I thought this would be an opportunity to gather data for analysis. It is not a chat thread or for discussion on causes, or trouble shooting.

Just maybe something well show up, as it appears Asus doesn’t have a clue and keep blaming the case. While the case does seem to be attenuating the signal compared to my Samsung Galaxy S2 it doesn’t explain the hit and miss nature of the TF201. And we all have the same back panel on our TF201’s.

On one occasion with the TF201 sitting on a park bench found 9 Satellites and used 5. (Using GPS version V 6.8.13) Without touching a thing they all disappeared. Then nothing!

The best I can do now is 1 Satellite found.

Test procedure:

Outdoors only in a wide open space.

Use “GPS Test” from The Market.

Update AGPS then turn Wi-Fi off.

If all reports could be posted in the following format.

1.	Model:

2.	Build:

3.	GPS Version:

5.	Satellite’s In use:

6.	Time to first fix:

7.	Has the GPS worked in previous builds of ICS

8.	Did GPS work in Honeycomb

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
Not sure what you're trying to accomplish here.

There isn't a single Transformer Prime on this planet where GPS works great.

So It is what it is: the metal design is beautiful, but it restricts GPS signals. And as there is no real a-GPS for Wifi tablets(as they have no cell-site triangulation possibilities), this becomes a real and unsolvable problem.

And Asus DOES has a clue, according to Asus there is no GPS on the Transformer Prime. The same as there is no GPS on other Wifi tablets like the iPad's. Asus made a big mistake advertising with GPS before release though.

So if you really want to use GPS on the Prime, you're out of luck and should return it. A full refund would be fair if you bought it early.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theandies:
I've never been able to lock onto more than 3 and then for only a few seconds. That was with HC and now ICS. If I use my Prime for navigation I use my BT GPS receiver and a full mapping capable app which I've already tested and works great. I suggest if anyone bought a TP for navigational purposes return it immediately.

Non-issue (for me at least).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
+1 why do people still not realize it's the aluminum condom to protect from GPS waves :eek:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mile high:
Ohh really.

Please explain TF201 sitting on park bench found 9 satellites, using 5.

Without touching the device all satellites lost and no further seen.

Don't like the odds on those condoms.

The aluminium case explains the poor signal to noise ratios, not the sudden loss of all reception on a stationary device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
The same reason when you are on the edge of losing a FM or AM radio station it can be crystal clear with a inch of movement. Try to navigate turn by turn with the Primes GPS as soon as you start moving signal is too weak to keep it. If your device just dropped all satellites without any movement it's just a glitch and has nothing to do with the overall problem of the Primes GPS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Because it sees them but fails to hold them when moving because the signal is weak.. Why can't people accept that?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yhzhrm:
Yes, this has been pointed out about the aluminum back. But as mentioned we all have the same aluminum back then ...

WHY are some Primes always able to see and get a GPS fix.

Why is ASUS even bothering with updating the GPS driver if GPS in not in the spec's?.

WHY has someone not show GPS results with the aluminum back off?

Off topic WIFI why the frack would I want to use G setting to get good WIFI? That's like not using my 5th gear in the car and staying in 4th.

I love the Prime but the aluminum back shield is a frack up period. Stock seems to have dried up around here (impossible to get). I wonder what's up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 3rdamention:
My new Prime had never seen 1 single satellite for the 4 days or so I have had it.

Last night, I open Google Maps and click on Resteraunts and simply pick a Pizza Joint nearby. Then I click on NAVIGATE for it to navigate me there (I was just playing around on my couch in my living room, not in my car).

The bottom of Google Maps said "Searching For GPS" and I said "Fudge It" and just laid it on the coffee table. I closed my eyes and about 12 minutes later (I looked at the clock) my tablet says in a woman's voice "Turn Left on Birch Drive!"

I couldn't believe my ears. I quickly opened GPSStatus, GPS FIX, all that. Then I noticed that Google Maps said "Searching for GPS" again. Google Maps needs a lock to navigate you so It actually got a lock for a split second, which was exciting.

However, the other apps were showing 4-5 Satellites, and they have never shown one before. It wouldn't lock, but the fact it was all the sudden showing some satellites was quite exciting since my GPS had appeared to be Dead on Arrival.

So, if you have time and can stop playing with the tablet, set up a route on Google Maps, choose for NAVIGATION, and set it down, maybe by a window, and wait 15 minutes. Maybe you will get a lock.

In my opinion, my GPS works VERY SLOW. It took literally 10 or more minutes to see any satellites, then started loading a few more slowly till I got up to 5. Again,I couldn't get it to lock onto any anymore, but I was in my living room and I have 14 mature trees in my yard (I am talking BIG trees).

Maybe give that a shot and see what happens. Because my tablet had seen NOTHING ever, but I was only trying it for 5 minutes at a time then I would get pissed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
All Primes will see and get GPS fixes NONE of them will keep it awhile moving.

No one wants to destroy a $500 device but if your willing feel free.

G gets better range with Wi-Fi in general and the Prime lacks good range with it's Wi-Fi for the same reason GPS sucks the aluminum sheild if it's not good enough for you return .
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yhzhrm:
Not true!

My Prime must be bad unit because 97 percent of the time it never sees any satellites and it has had actually only had a fix maybe three times out of 100 tries.

I'd be happy to get a fix period each time I tried

Hence my original WHY with the same aluminum back can some Primes get fixes while others don't even now satellites exist in orbit?

My bad unit is going back. I'll wait for the 700 series or a revised TF201 with a new back. Until then My HP Touchpad running ICS will do for now. Yes, no HD video or camera but that's fine.

GPS works on all other sanctioned Android tablets (with market access).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
Sorry I forgot to mention asus terrible qc on the primes I'm sure there's plenty where gps is totally borked bottom line is gps will never function as a turn by turn on primes with aluminum backplates. End of story

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
I don't see any satellites and I have never seen any on either of my TFP's. I have owned 2 so far and they both didn't see any satellites period. My GPS light stayed yellow and never went green no matter if I used wifi or not. So why is mine not seeing any Sat's, but you guys complain when you have a weak signal. I am in the process of trying to return mine I bought from BB, but I am waiting my 14 days to see if they will get some in stock. If they do, the customer rep will send one out to me or the store nearest me, and then I would have to send mine off. That's what the customer service rep told me to do. It's not that big of a deal to me, but the unknown serial was, so that's why I got rid of my first one.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seigex:
wrong. I get no gps satellites period .. no fix no nothing... no matter which configuration i try
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mile high:
Well generally not the responses I had hoped for.

What does stationary device, placed on park bench, mean to you?

Not moving...9 satellites, with a fix, then suddenly nothing. No satellites in range. TF201 still sitting on park bench!

As an aside my Wifi is perfect. In fact better signal strength and bandwidth better than both my phones and similar to my laptop.

I don't want turn by turn navigation (have TomTom for that). Just a occasional fix on Google maps. Wifi is generally too inaccurate.

And I do know a little about GPS. RAIM, FDE and Baro aiding help keep me alive in my 9-5 job.

If you are happy with your prime great.

But do check the bottom of the box your Prime came in. The spec still show GPS. Mine is a late model Prime. So regardless of Asus removing it from the web site I feel I am entitled to some form of GPS functionality.

Happy to do that Wifi assisted and it should work in a wide open space. But it doesn't for 70% of owners.

So my question once again why are the other 30% of TF201's offering some sort of GPS functionality?

I also wonder about this. Why waste the time and effort?

In Honeycomb It was working very well but since the update its way more flaky, as it will go from 9 sats in view and suddenly lose them all.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pubnum:
These issues have been debated time and time again for the last month. There is absolutely nothing offered in this thread that isn't offered elsewhere (including opinions).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
Its not nearly perfect. There isn't a single satellite with a green/good(SNR) connection, so it would probably lose connection/lock the instant you get in your car, and/or actually move under a tree for example.

Using the Prime as a good GPS device will never really work well, even in ideal circumstances assuming driver/updates were all fine. The above video is about as good as it will ever get with the onboard GPS.

There are several alternatives however:

1) "GPS tether" with your Android phone(free app in Android Market).

2) Buy a cheap blue tooth GPS reveiver, this will result in GPS reception better then every tablet on the Market.

3) Use a better suited GPS device (for example a Smart phone...sorry personal preference)

4) Sell/return the Prime, and buy another android tablet with better GPS. Of course they suck for other things except GPS, but apparently at the moment, you can't have it all.

5) Return it, wait 6 months, and buy the TF700 with it's ugly-as-hell backplate, but probably well-working GPS.

So, I've been banging my head against the wall for a few days now, and though I usually don't post questions (90% of the time I find the answer somewhere on the interwebs) I'm a bit stuck.

So I'm trying to get used to creating my own boot images, and have found the article android-dls article among others very helpful in understanding everything (would post the link, but can't yet)

It was easy enough to find the boot image on the Fire, and I have been using the unpack_bootimg.pl to unpack the boot image, then make the necessary changes, and mkbootfs to pack up the ramdisk. Everything goes swimmingly.

The problem arises when using fastboot to boot the new boot image using the command below:

fastboot boot boot.img-kernel.gz boot.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz

It loads it to the Fire fine, but never boots. My guess is it has something to do with offsets, but to be honest, it's a bit of a blind guess. I have also attempted to repackage the boot image into a testboot.img with the same results. I've even tried just unpacking an re-packing the known good image thats already there, without changes.

Also, not sure if this is relevant information, but mkbootfs and mkbootimg was compiled in OS X (10.6.8 for those that care) directly from the android 4.0.3 source.

Does any one have any suggestions on what to try next? Or even better, any additional articles, threads, etc. that I may have missed. Any help would be appreciated.

This may not apply as I do not own a KF...

Have you ever successfully used fastboot in that manner with the KF? Any kernel I mean...

I was never able to use fastboot like that with my inspire 4g... but could use it to flash the very same image quite successfully.

Dont know if that helps or not...
[Kindle Fire General] eldarerathis:
I've found that those scripts do not play nicely with the Fire's boot images for whatever reason, and repacking with them renders all of my images unbootable as well. I've ended up using dsixda's ROM kitchen just for the boot image scripts because those work fine. I'm not entirely sure where the disconnect is on the perl scripts, but I haven't looked at them truly extensively.

Changed the Boot Logo and now stuck at boot

I edited the fire_start_000??.png (5 total 43 though 48) to add some text. Re-loaded the zipes into the bootscreen zip file. When I used TWRP to install a factory rom (Gr6-update-modacocustomrom-kindlefire.zip)

It installed fine, and i wiped the cache and the other (Davoric?).

Now when I re-started the Kindle, it shows the "kindle fire" logo, flashes, and then re-displays the logo, but freezes there

I am in fastboot mode according to the Kindle fire utility, and cant change back to normal.

Says no device found.

I have the Android adb device in Device Manager

I can boot and reboot using ADB

But anytime I try to use the fastboot command I get the no device error

If I type in ADB DEVICES, it doesnt show up

If you can help it would be appreciated.
[Kindle Fire General] b63:
you could try to get to twrp by issuing:

fastboot oem idme bootmode 5001

fastboot reboot

in the case it says <waiting for device> power off the kf by holding pwr ~20sec

power on again - at some point the command gets finished

power off and on again

once in twrp you have adb available and can copy a good file over the bad one

take care of the permissions !

or just restore a backup or flash a new rom

maybe you have to check your drivers in device manager:
