Sorry I just read the Questions rule, trying to delete the post

Okay so after doing some research I have come across a few issues with choosing to purchase the ASUS TFP 201 or TF 101 or wait for the TFP 700.

I keep seeing that 201 has issues but then I see posts stating that there are newer Models that fix the original issues. So I guess My question is Does the All of the TFP 201 have the Wifi and GPS issues or are the newer ones working fine? or Is the TFP 700 the updated and fixed version of the TFP 201?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but it seems like the more I read the more confusing it get. Please Help. :confused:

I just got one!!!

My step father and I wanted to get 2 TF201s but I decided to wait and let him get it and see if I will like it :D his arrived 3 days ago and it is working great with no issues what so ever. So I decided to get mine today from ebay.

I would say get it or wait if you don;t mind paying extra for basically the same thing!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Docaroo:
I just got a TF201 - perfectly fine.

There's a small minority with issues, however the minority makes the biggest noise here!

No point waiting for a TF700, it's half a year away and a different unit + more money.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tech Faded:
Well the TF101 is still a pretty good tablet. (ICS on the way)

There is no newer model of the TF201 it still has problems.(However supposedly the tablets with the serial starting with BC instead of BB have a better Wi-Fi chip set.)

The TF700 will not becoming out until June or sometime then. No one knows for sure if it fixes all of the issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] StoneCracker:
I currently have a TF201 and love it. I do have issues every now and then. And due to the metal frame that all TF201s have, GPS and wifi could be better.

The TF700 should have almost the same hardware except a slightly better screen resolution and a plastic frame. Thus the better GPS and wifi performance.

My recommendation is to wait a few months for he TF700 if you can help yourself.

We all love the phone. We hate that Nvidia/LG is not releasing the drivers for it and that it has been EOL'ed in just 8 months even thought the phone is still up-to-date in terms of hardware and software and can outperform iphone any day.

Its not getting ICS even though the twin brother O2x is and we cant get a port. Info on the X3 (successor) have leaked but we dont know how legit they are and if it will come to TMO or not. The myTouch line by LG is a downgrade. Having thought of selling the phone now and getting something else but a change in phones is not a must ATM.

Wanted to open this discussion because we are all going to have to upgrade eventually since this is the last stop and my decision on eventually my new phone will be somewhat community driven.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:
SGS2 is the best phone TMO has right now. The Amaze and Sensation are pretty much the same so you wonder why HTC released them in that manner.

The HTC Ville and SGS3 are rumored to be released, sporting dual-core 1.5 and ICS but what are your thought process and decision making factors that will go into eventually your new phone (X3, Ville, SGS3)?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Where was it said we would not get ICS. I have not heard anything Pro or Con. If the O2x gets it there should be a port. Phone, computers and electronics get ELOed all the time with no issues. Most computers are ELOed even before you buy them off the shelf at the store.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacko147:
I am patiently waiting for the next best phone from Tmo, it has been somewhat depressing though as there haven't even been any decent rumored phones, this time last year we were looking at sensation / G2x, with SGII / Amaze shortly after. Crossing my fingers we get some kind of whiff from MWC next month.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
LG directly said that we wouldn't, and they aren't releasing drivers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:
LG announced G2x was EOLed (End Of Life), which means no support and no updates. there have been other members and posts claiming that isnt true and that an LG rep confirmed ICS for G2x but right now Im more inclined to believe that the phone has reached its end.

Just look at the fire sale TMO is having for this phone. Clear inventory.

Its a shame really, cuz the common person buying/using this phone will never realize its potential like we have here on XDA
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wyldkard:
They have been somewhat depressing. If i had to buy a phone right now, it would obviously be the SGS2 with no competition.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Why would they EOL the G2x without EOLing the O2x? They mad because of the complaints the G2x got? And also yes, it is very said that some people will see it free and get it in the state it's in and just think it's another phone LG **** out when it is amazing.!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nitrouspromonyc:
Just flashed MIUI and its great, might jump on the sgs2 bandwagon soon though...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] psychoace:
Tmobile doesn't have the o2x in its lineup obviously so it can't discontinue something it doesn't have
[T-Mobile LG G2x] scooter247:
T-Mobile is eoling it not LG. Which means that T-Mobile will not be doing any ota's for it anymore so if LG does do an update then it will be through there computer update system. This way LG is only responsible if it brick due to update and not T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ed116:
in two months or so upgrading to the SGS2x Hercules, no matter what that phone will be a beast lol unless i see quad core on the horizen then might wait till june. Ics is not that important when i got MIUI :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
Point us to the link where LG said we would not get ICS. They are still being sold and Wind Mobile just picked up the line a couple of months ago.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Private Pyle:
I'm not saying whether we will get ICS or not but this is what it is. You decide what it means.

http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards/general/lg/topics/g2x-ics

What do I think? I would guess no. I think that if they were going to release a G2x version of ICS then there would be no reason to leave us hanging when the O2x is practically identical in terms of power to the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
Whoops I thought LG was EOLing it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
SGS3.... Also this LGX3 will be quad core.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
If that's true then we will at least see an update we will have to do via computer... Or wait till cyanogen gets his hands on it :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
I meant no OTA ICS update, T-Mobile would have to do that , something they obviously aren't considering the situation. We may get a build that we have to flash through our computer, or wait until cyanogen gets his hands on it for the drivers and makes a CM9 build for it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Evil_Droid:
I have both g2x and SgS2 .. I actually prefer this a little more for 2 reasons.. I like the HDMI which u need an adaptor on the galaxy, and imo this is a little more comfortable to hold. The Samsung is just too light.

And now I've been using miui .. makes me like this phone even more. Even though tmo and lg gave up, who cares. Its xda that's going to keep this phone going. Hell, look at the g1. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jblah:
i know this will be my last LG phone. They just don't have the dev support to be in the phone business. I'll get a Samsung next if i do get another phone.

As for the drivers...I heard that the tegra 2 drivers were just released today. will post updated link here shortly.

Also i saw a MIUI ICS at rootzwiki. so even if we don't get an "official" ICS release, we'll still see it from cyanogenmod 9 and MIUI. so your fear of this phone becoming obsolete can be put to rest at least for now.
[HTC Sensation] SensationAlex:
I have been using a couple of early ICS roms and now none of the new updates or other roms seem to work. I get to the bootloader of the rom and then back to the HTC screen over and over. I have flashed .24 and .12 firmwares for the various roms first but then still get stuck in a loop. OneICS v1.0.5 still works as does a couple of older virtuous inquisition roms.

Can I check to see if I have SuperCID?

I also followed ARHD guide step by step but got stuck at the load screen.

Any ideas? Really want to try the new ICS roms
[HTC Sensation] ilostchild:
New ics needs 3.24 firmware so 6.1.x needs it
[HTC Sensation] SensationAlex:
I have put the new firmware on my SD card and loaded it and it all seemed fine. When I tried the new roms they don't seem to work but old roms do so I assume I am still on the old firmware.

Currently I have Android 4.0.1, sense 3.2 on the OneICS version 1.0.5 rom.

Kernal is 3.0.13-g8085863 htc-kernal@u1800-build-144#1

Baseband 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M
[HTC Sensation] EricDET:
If you don't have SuperCID you're not going to be able to flash the firmware. Remove the firmware and reboot to fastboot. FOLLOW the guide to SuperCID.

Check if you have seupercid by running the command: fastboot getvar cid

If it still doesn't work then you have mismatched the rom/firmware versions. 3.24 firmware is required for 6.1.x ARHD.

that will tell you. Also look at this thread

I used the termical emulator and get VODA001. I am in the UK and on vodaphone so does this mean I haven't got superCID?

Yes supercid will return 11111111 as the cid. As I stated earlier you need to superCid.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdkmdk:
So I was coming close to the end of my 30 day chance to swap my Photon for the 4G Touch, so I did it today...The Photon totally blows this Samsung out the water as far signal strength !

Sure the 4G Touch looks better and has more eye candy, but the WiFi signal and regular signal is very subpar to the Motorola.

Anything I can do to try the 4G Touch to «fix« the radio and get a better signal?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xjreyes:
Really? I'm getting great signal 3G .77-1.30mbps down and on wifi 25 mbps+

you always have craigslist..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Photon was always known to have great radio performance. Don't know if they fixed it but the evo 3d was supposedly horrible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rayprobg:
Well, I do know that the wifi antenna in the ET is on the left near the top, if you have your hand around the phone it will dampen the signal, inconvenient but if you hold it near the bottom it should help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
Welcome to the wonderful world of the SGE4GT... I have had this phone for about 3 months, and have always suffered from poor radio performance. I have flashed almost all the modem updates (ek02, el13, el26, and now el29) have noticed slight improvements, but nothing drastic. Just one of the trade offs with this phone. Bad ass celly but bad bad signal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
This is just my take on the issue. My test was done with my epic touch and my cousins iPhone 4 both on the same wifi signal. IPhone 4 had full bars meanwhile my epic had 2 and only way I could get three was putting it right next to the router. My og epic same problem with signal strength as e4gt.. Running speedtest my epic touch had the higher score even with it being a bar less. My final test was walking out the house as far as I can till signal cuts off. Both phones lost connection about the same time. I honestly think Samsung just doesn't read the signal correctly being that both phones disconnected about the same time. And the epic also outperformed in the speedtest for the most part.. That's just my take based on my test with an iPhone. Maybe someone could do a similar one see if they experience the same...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdkmdk:
Thanks for the responses guys!

I thought try y'all were going to think I wss trolling being I have a low post count :D

Coming from the Photon having full signal bars in my house last night to the 4G Epic only having 2 is werid.

The Epic also lost all signal in my local Walmart tonight as well. I was using the Photon just fine in there 2 nights ago?

As far as the Wi-Fi, same router, settings & distance..the Epic gets 1 bar where my Photon was always maxed out. Max Speed Test results via Wi-Fi were:

Epic 4G = 3.8mb

Photon = 20.0mb+...never under

Is there some setting(s) thats easily overlooked with this phone?

I will admit the screen & overall speed is awesome...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
How does your phone behave? Is it giving you trouble?

My bars are also not the best, but I stopped caring about how many bars I have and more about how my phone behaves. I don't really have calls dropping or signal issues on 3g/wifi, so I decided to stop complaining about it.

Might be a bit naive on my part, but whatever.. It's going to get fixed and it doesn't seem to be affecting me so I stopped worrying about the bars.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] uriel1971:
My wife has the photon and I have epic touch, her phone always shows more bars but bars can be deceiving so I have run speed test on both phones in same locations and there is never any significant variances. Additionally in the few places where I have lost signal and or have roamed so has she, I think that the Motorola bars might just be a little optimistic, definitely using a different algorithm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdkmdk:
I had to go to the Sprint store this morning to get a case for the phone and while I was there i asked about the reception. They took a look at the phone and did some kind of test. The guy give it back and says here its good to go, so as Im walking out I called my girl and it dropped the call ! Called back and it did the same thing..lol

So I took it back in, told them keep peice of **** and got a Photon again and my $80 back...

Good luck with your Epic G4 Touches guys !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gr33nd3vil:
It really comes down to the area you live in. I have no dropped calls an perfect bars same as my electrify i had...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
BOOOOOOOOO! Quitter!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Some people that know rf and such can tell you the meter really is useless. There is no standard for how many bars are shown at whatever -DB signal level. Someone with the tools and knowledge to manipulate it, could go into the radio receiver and adjust the meter to whatever they want. Yes a meter is handy but it isn't the gospel truth. The motorola possibly has better signal to noise ratio and adjacent channel rejection than the Samsung. Motorola has lots of experience with rf in two way radios, pagers, phones and repeaters. If you are in fringe areas often, then maybe the photon is for you. It may have a great radio in it but some of the other areas, it might be lacking. Motorola also has an attitude reputation that some don't like, including myself. They aren't the kind of company that likes it if a user goes inside and tunes and tinkers with things. They like to weld the hood shut and not tell anyone how to work on their stuff.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdkmdk:
Good response !

I see what your saying about there is no definite scale of bars vs signal across all phones, but the 4G Touch dropped 2 calls in the Sprint parking lot:confused:

After using the Photon for almost a month, I never had any complaints on the service, signal, 3G or WiFi. It was way better then the EVO 4G I was coming from. It really lacked in the screen dept, but the higher res sorta made up for it.

In the end, the latest and greatest Touch 4G just didn't work in a way I could deal with for what I want. I didn't really wanna deal with flashing this and upgrading this to make it work.

Good luck guys !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
Even in two way radios, there's no "standard" of how much signal should equal however many bars or s-units on a receive meter.

I've never owned a motorola. Are they still doing that BS of locking the boot loaders or whatever? Between Samsung/HTC/LG, Samsung phones seem the easiest to root and mess around with.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] choyt2011:
Its a well known fact that some manf. Inflate the signal coverage on there phones...when in actuality its no where near that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stkiswr:
Motorola has always had the best radios. On avg moto will have better signal all the time.

I still get the call, no dropped calls here. I prefer HTC and Samsung due to unlocked bootloaders.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ervman1:
To each their own..I just tested my speed on 3 bars wifi and I got 17.4 down and 5.3 upload...my internet speed is 15/5 so that's pretty good..I do agree the signal bars usually mean diddly for accurate comparison...also DB scale is logarithmic so a 20 db increase means 100 times more in linear scale..fyi
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
I can tell you that at work, my Epic Touch has a noticeably worse WiFI range than any other device I tested.

I know its a bit unfair because of antenna size, but a three year old laptop can pull down 9Mb from anywhere in our building via WiFi. My Epic Touch loses any ability to access the network in about 25% of the building.

Side by side on the same WiFi network, using the same test server, my Samsung Moment consistently (5 out of 5) performs better on the Speedtest.net app. Performed about 5 feet from the nearest router. I also get an extra 20 feet or so from the router before the Moment loses all connectivity.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zx3junglist:
All the reviews I read/watched that put the MoPho against the ET said the same.. Much better radio / call quality on the Moto, however the Sammy wins in almost every other category. Better screen, better battery (yes, the specs lie!), better performance, better camera, etc etc etc. The glaring difference is that the Moto is a world phone, if you're a traveler.

It's more a matter of whether the signal quality in the areas you are in are good enough that it doesn't make a difference. For me, I don't have any signal issues, so the Samsung was the marginal winner. If I was in an area with less reliable quality, I would have gotten the Moto. I don't think either is a bad choice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stonesaber:
I started with an Epic touch and after a few days with a bad signal I swapped it for a Photon. My Photon has great signal strength but I missed the Epic, so I bought a used one from Swappa to change back and forth when I get bored with one. The one I bought second hand has much better signal strength without one dropped call or loss of signal. My initial Epic would lose signal if I walked from my living room to the bedroom, but no such thing with the new one. So that tells me that not all suffer from poor reception and it's the luck of the draw.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Are you testing the same servers? Also try the EL29 Radio. It's much better than ek02. But I will say from numerous sources that the Photon is Sprints #1 as far as signal strength goes. still, the ET4G isn't that far behind it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bsanto9:
I'm currently using the el29 very solid modem driver.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I can confirm that the photon and ET4g will drop a call in the same location. I think Moto just shows more bars. Maybe if could compare the -db's with phones side by side it can be proven. I have the day off tomorrow I just might do that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
My wife has a MoPho and I have a E4GT. As its been said already, is that Moto seems to have better radios. But 1 thing that makes me jealous is her atrix dock!! Personally I would not use a MOTO simply cause of the bootloaders. It all depends on what you need your phone for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Well today I sat my E4GT (rooted, whole 9yrds, EL29) next to my wifes mopho (rooted and unlocked skinnyrev1). Left the screens on and went to check signal. E4GT 1 bar, MoPho full bars. Dbm e4gt had -101, mopho had -100. So it might be safe to say its how its reported. I do know her mopho gets better data in our low signal area, but are close to the same in good signal coverage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arsmithsr:
I have had both phones. I currently have the Epic and here is why. I went thru 3 of the Phonton's 3 I really wanted to like the photno had the lapdock and eveything but I couldn't get the damn problem with the sleep of death fixed. I tried 3 phones new refurbed and one they only had for 2 weeks. What I found is that at work down stairs in the basement where I work I have a low signal same for the Photon and the Epic. But it is a low signal in that area all 3 epics would go into the sleep of death. So 3 strikes it was out. I just couldn't be out of my phone like that. Good concept but there is a definite problem with the radio in that phone.
