Do you want to get the new forum troll here?

I read maybe like 5 posts of you and all were troll posts...

Not sure if you know that, but forum users usually doesn't like trolls.

Even if you have an opinion different to other people, there's always a way to tell that opinion without being a troll.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
That person won't last long. More than likely one of the defectors here under a new screenname trying to be funny. Only funny thing he had was the mention of honey badger video. There's simple solutions/actions for people like him. Lol.

Great analogy! Never thought of that before.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jetbruceli:
i just went from the g2x to iphone 4s and I am happy with that. I love android but for a phone the Iphone is by far the most stable and most updated.

My prime is my pride. I love it and would never trade it for anything.

I think people need to understand there is an opinion and that there is more than android and ios out there. I do get tired of people asking me if this prime is like an ipad, I say no, its like an asus transformer prime!

When they ask me if I like I over Andy I say I like them both!

It is true to an extent that android devices imitate iOS devices in the basic way they work..but then again you can find a million other things in this world that are imitations of something else but are different in their own right...Hell I could say a macbook pro is an imitation of a sony vaio and the million other laptops out there...but the reason i feel people think an android device is an imitation iOS device is because they think Apple invented these devices. ...Which couldnt be further from the truth. Only thing is that the general public doesnt know this...Give credit where credit is due however...Apple did revolutionize the smartphone platform with the original iPhone just like the revolutionized the tablet market with the original iPad...Because of the fact that Apple ushered in an era with products that made it easy for anyone to adopt technology combined with being one of the most recognizable tech companies in the world...this is the reason most people can't tell the difference or feel that Android devices are an imitation of Apple products...

I'm sure I'll get called a "fanboi" for this, but ...

I think that's the part of "invent" that many think Apple did.

Just like they "invented" the mouse and/or a windowing operating system (which they didn't of course).

I have an iPhone, but to me it's a tool. A better tool than the one it replaced (a POS razr running some crappy verizon idea of "smart").

I also have a makita cordless screwdriver. I have no need to MOD my screwdriver, and equally I personally have no need to MOD my phone.

A tablet on the other hand I want to be a more general purpose computing device (I'm a linux software developer).

Some, my wife for example, treat a tablet like a tool (she has a iPad1 and is happy as a clam).

So, IMO, if want something to be a tool, and understand the capabilities/limitations you can get with your tool, it's your choice of iOS vs Android.

Me, I'm happy with my iOS phone, but want my tablet to be android.

(of course fanbois are tools, but that's another discussion)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zerospunk:
I'm getting tired of explaining why I didn't "just get an ipad" to people.

It's such a long list too...

-No expandable storage

-No Flash (being able to access "desktop only" vimeo things on the prime is incredibly nice considering they lock out mobile access on a lot of content for no reason)

-No app stretch, only upscaling. Have you seen non ipad apps on an ipad? Android's stretch resizing runs circles around it. You could argue there's more ipad designed apps then ICS designed apps, but I like having the option of not having to rebuy an "HD" version of something if it's not necessary.

-4:3 aspect ratio. I'm heavier on video content then anything when I'm commuting. 16:9 is infinitely better then 4:3 for this, not to mention I haven't owned a 4:3 display in over 5 years.

-No sharing between apps. Want to read a book in something other then ibooks? ios needs you to copy duplicate that file on your device since everything is so walled off from everything. Having multiple copies of files just seems tedious and non intuitive.

-Less then stellar google service support. This is kind of a no brainer but the differences in google apps between platforms are pretty obvious. Granted you wouldn't expect google to produce a better ios port of gmail or gmaps then what they'd develop for their own platform, but when you're tied heavily into google services such as music, mail, navigation, voice, wallet, etc etc- it just makes more sense to go with the better integration.

and of course the whole keyboard dock making this a really useful hybrid selling point. ipads are way too limited in scope for what I'm looking for without some serious jailbreaking/tweaking and accessorizing. i'm happier with android even if it's just thought of a "poor man's ipad" by the uninformed
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Khyrdantai:
People are probably so exposed to Apple products that they think EVERY Tablet is called an "iPad". At least the ones that aren't tech savvy. Similar to people calling any MP3 player an iPod.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Felimenta97:
I used to call all MP3 players as iPod but years ago ( I have only 14 years old), when I hadn't such knowledge, but is because of this exposition...

Anyway, keep posting, I am laughting here.

I love the apple-hating circlejerk thread!

I finally got the keyboard dock and I love this tablet.

I would not have gotten a tablet without a docking station like this. I firmly believe Tablets are made for entertainment only and it makes me cringe seeing someone trying to get work done on an iPad or similar. The reason I got the TF101 and the TF201 was to take notes in classes as I have long school days at the college I go to.

I really think Asus found the sweetspot for an awesome Media consumption device and something that can finally get work done.

I have friends asking me where got this cool-looking iPad and it hurts me everytime.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SexyAndIKnowIt:
I guess there is a reason why all the 'tech' guys have an android....

I wonder why....

................. Oh wait, already said enough.

(gotta say though, it was apple who brought tablets/smartphones to the general public, plus the competition kinda maked android where it is now)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] halloumi3:
than I guess I do have something in common with the general ipad user.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Idk how many people at school have asked is it an iPad and I say no... they are like then what?

I reply an Asus transformer prime.....

their reply huh?

I reply an android tablet!

ohh so you have an iPad knockoff

then I just agree with them lmfao!

but anyways android started in 2003 you might not have heard of it but android was around longer than IOS google bought it in 2005! android was in the works long before IOS! the first android phone came out around a year after the iPhone! but apple was in no way the first ones to make a touchscreen phone or the first ones with an app store!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] richaoj:
I actually took mine to the apple store when my wife had to get her iPhone replaced, partly out of a desire to show off and partly because i actually had legitimate work to get done. one of the employees came up to me and said "that's a tiny laptop" (I had the keyboard dock attached because I was typing up something). I was like "its not a laptop, it's a tablet" and pulled it off the dock. To which the employee replied "oh its an iPad. Where did you get that accessory?". I told him it wasn't an iPad and what it was and all he could say was "it looks like an iPad."

I said in that it has a black bezel and a touchscreen, then yes. But its an android. I can actually do things on this tablet. And I told him about the extra battery life from the sick and the USB support and he was like "huh. Well it looks like an iPad."

Lolz. The guy had never heard of the device , which almost everyone in tech has, which just goes to show you how truly out of touch apple fanbois are.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] paga912:
lol...I wish people who love apple products would just stop it with thinking android products aren't nearly as good if not better than apple stuff. one of my best friends gets on my nerves with her over the top love for apple everything. I do have a Macbook pro and a iPad but I love my prime and Samsung gs2.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheWerewolf:
Then there's the "iPad Clutch"

I've seen quite a few new iPad owners do this.

It consists of holding the iPad in a two armed grip, one above and one below the Apple logo so that it's very clear that the logo is visible while conveying a sense of "Mine!". Usually done with a furtive glance around to see if anyone's noticed the owner has an iPad...

Sidenote to the Apple fan who seemed to imply that unlike we Prime owners, the iPad owners, rather than posting in forums like this are enjoying the smooth experience of their iPads?

Unlike, of course, all those iPhone 4 owners who were writing angrily in forums about 'Antennagate' where Apple's response to a similar design error was 'Grip Different'... (Jobs told all those owners that they were holding the phone wrong... because of course,with Apple there are no errors - just stupid customers... oh wait... I guess he's right after all...)

Well, I own an iPad, an iPhone 3G, a Samsung Series 7 slate, a Viewsonic Viewpad 7 (which I use as a phone/WiFi hotspot), an HP Slate 500 and of course a Transformer Prime. Guess which one I use the most? And no - it doesn't have fruit on it...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] e.mote:
I'm not an Apple user, but am looking forward to the next iPad announcement, specifically to see how 2048x1536 looks on a 9.7", and whether Apple would broaden its line-up to cover more price points. That's its main weakness, which allows the KFire to prosper. A 7" at $300 would deal Amazon a serious blow, including any other Android tab.

Am also hoping to see the rumored 10" KFire at around $300.

Really, I'm hoping all three major OS'es (Android, Mac/iOS, Win) do well. Competition is good.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jedi5diah:
Sold my iPad 2 for prime.

Anyway having a high Res screen on the 10 inch is redundant. It only makes displaying low Res pictures ugly. Full HD on tablet is redundant IMO.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Beards:
I do hospital ward rounds using my TF101 and am often on the receiving end of differing remarks.

However, the one that most surprised me was when one patient looked up from his bed with a smile and said "is that an iPad"?

"No, it's an Android Tablet" I replied.

To which his expression changed to severe shock "Robots in an iPad, what will they think of next"!

It took me all my composure not to burst out laughing.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] simard57:
if they ask how the TFP is better than the iPad - what do you point out?

more freedom - not locked into walled garden

connectivity - SD Card, HDMI, Dock

plays flash - seems to be getting to be less with acceptance of HTML5 and Adobe abandoning mobile flash

what else?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] taylorgrandorf:
On my old Archos 101, I just pointed out the full usb port on the side, and plugged in a Flash drive. Another time, I was at Best Buy with somebody looking at tablets (Ultimately bought Acer Iconia A500), when the salesman directed us to the Apple display, and I said "But it doesn't have a USB port", and was told, "Sure it does! You can connect flash drives, mice, keyboards and other stuff too!":confused: I asked for a demonstration, and was told that the demo units didn't have USB ports, but the regular one did. :rolleyes:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mutiny:
So I'm not the only one! Hahaha. I've loved Apple ever since I could afford one. Like mrokeefe said, Macs are great, but iCrap are NOT. Maybe iOS is for kids, but my son at age two definitely doesn't think so. In fact, he rocks a Xoom and completely ignored my old iPhone. I also wouldn't say women and grandparents because my wife and parents definitely prefer Android --in fact our household have about $4,000~ worth of Android devices at a time (no exaggerations). We have OSX computers, but we have no iOS devices in our humble home. No sir.

I'm no blind Fandroid either. I have owned two iPhones and two iPod Touch and nearly bought an iPad 2. Let's just say I'm not masochistic enough to pull the trigger on an iPad 2 after already dumping both iPhones (FOR FREE to friends!) and iPod Touch on Craigslist. If I was a baller and felt like giving away free iPads then maybe I would have owned one. Alas, I'm just a geek who has a bad case of gadget lust with a wallet barely keeping up.

EDIT: I would also like I add that we have about 6-10 people here in our firm with iPads --mostly attorneys (partners and associates). I managed to convince my fellow IT and office manager to get the Prime over an iPad, though they bought two iPad 2s for their kids (they're married) for Christmas. Let's just say that our three Prime might be in the minority here at work, but we are turning heads and causing stiff necks around here. One instance was when we showed off the thickness, weight, and then proceeded to the gorgeous screen where we then loaded Stick It. Stick It is a video player app that floats the player (always on top) while you do whatever you want with your tablet. When they asked if their iPads can also do it, I replied, "I don't know but I'm sure you guys have something like Post It, right?" Lol. When they asked me to be serious I flat out said no because your iPad is like the tail that wags the dog, not the other way around. Two of these iPad owners are tech savvy and are looking to get the Prime. :)

Hi

Guys I have a 2011 C Class with the Comand system in it. It has internet access which you use using the WAP on your phone once it is connected via Bluetooth to the Comand system. It worked fine with my Galaxy S but now that I have the GN it wont access. Does anyone know why or does anyone know how to fix this.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lauk75:
Are you sure it uses wap and not Bluetooth? Even if you're right and it does use wap, it may be worth checking if there's an option to use Bluetooth and to see if that works. With Bluetooth you'd of course need to pair the car's bt with your phone's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
LAUK 75

Hi thanks for your reply according to manual these are the conditions that are necessary for connection.

"the mobile phone supports DUN Bluetooth profile(Dial-Up Networking)and is connected to COMAND via the Bluetooth interface. The DUN Bluetooth enables the mobile phone to establish a dial-up connection to the Internet"

As I said my Galaxy S connected to it fine and enabled the internet connection on the COMAND system.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lauk75:
The only thing I can suggest is that you ensure that your phone's Bluetooth is paired with your car's. If you've already confirmed that it is then then the only other thing that comes to mind is to perhaps try using your phone as mobile hotspot over Bluetooth.

Did you set it up yourself with your other phone or was it set up for you when you bought the car?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
Lauk75, I'm sorry but neither of your posts made technological sense. WAP is a protocol by which mobile devices access the internet. Bluetooth is a radio device allowing 2 devices to exchange information, ie audio via a headset or a card between 2 phones.

Onto the problem. Is the comand unit trying to use the SAP protocol? I know androids support of this is fairly limited? Are there any other settings in the head unit you can change? If you tell me if its comand 50,20,10 etc I'll look at the manual for you.

John
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lauk75:
Ah, I wrongly assumed that the problem was with trying to play music from the phone. I see now that it is all about accessing the Internet. My mistake.

Having said that, there is a Bluetooth tethering option on the galaxy nexus, the description of which suggests it is for sharing the phone's Internet connection in a similar way as you would do in normal tethering. That was my second suggestion in my second post above . Perhaps it is worth a try, perhaps not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
john

thanks for your reply. All I can say about the comand system is that its called COMAND ONLINE. No model number. Its a brand new system that's in the new C Class. As I said my Galaxy S connects the internet to it no prob. It must be to do with ICS maybe. Tried the Bluetooth Tethering mentioned by LAUK 75 (thanks for your reply) but still no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
Then I would gather that its an issue with the Bluetooth stack on ics. If your rooted u may want to try a 4.0.3 rom and see if that fixes the issue. Other than that I think ur out of luck. I've not looked but are there any Bluetooth apps in the market, as they may use their own stack/ driver for Bluetooth. (Worth a shot)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
On looking, there are two apps in the market which add Bluetooth PAN functions. They may be worth a shot. Search for Bluetooth pan in the market.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] john014:
Also try an app called PDAnet, which enables Bluetooth DUN profile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
Guys thanks. Tried PDANET but it doesnt load on ICS. Tried Nook Colour tether doesnt work either.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
Guys

Can anyone, please have a look at this Thread again. I have still noit been able to use the internet on my mercedes when my Galaxy Nexus is connected to it. I think it's something to do with the Bluetooth settings within ICS.

According to manual these are the conditions that are necessary for connection.

"the mobile phone supports DUN Bluetooth profile(Dial-Up Networking)and is connected to COMAND via the Bluetooth interface. The DUN Bluetooth enables the mobile phone to establish a dial-up connection to the Internet"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
PDANet for Android seems to be working fine. Make sure you have GPU acceleration turned off in developer settings. In order to access Bluetooth DUN Mode you need to install FoxFi
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
Hi anton2009, thanks for your response. When I use PDAnet 3.50 and select Bluetooth DUN mode it takes me to Foxfi I then select Activate Bluetooth DUN and it says fail to Activate. Internet not detected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Hmm... well I thought you would be able to do it without having the PC PDANet component, but apparently you do...? So this would make this quite useless... I guess the only thingI can think of would be the bluetooth tethering option in Wireless Networks, but you already stated that does not work. Sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mty2608:
Guys eventually solved this. An App called Blue Dun available through Google Play has fixed this problem. See line 101

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] snovvman:
The problem is not new, we have seen this on many devices in the past--Evo 3D, Epic 4G just to name a couple.

My new Evo View 4G has a yellow-tinted/warm color temp screen. Comparing it next to a Galaxy Tab, an iPad 2, iPhone 4s, Galaxy Nexus, Evo 3D, Epic 4G, Motorola Atrix, and LG Nitro HD, this Evo View's screen is not just the yellowest, but very yellow.

Does anyone else have the same problem?

I know that there were tweaks released for some phones to correct this--does anyone know of a solution for the Evo View?

Thanks.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] gedster314:
Mine is yellow too. It appears to be the same panel that my Nook Color had. I know Cyanogenmod let's you play with the tint. The yellowness of the View is really bad when I compare it to an OLED display not so bad when I compare it to my Ipad2.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] ghanada:
Yeah this was discussed a while back on another post in this forum. The Flyer/View tends to have a "warmer" (yellow) color temperature. While the iPad/iPhones and KF tend to have a very "cool" (blue) tint. I have come to accept that it isn't necessarily a flaw, but more a matter of preference. I had the same problem on the NT before I returned it. Honestly, I always know it is there, but over time I have stopped caring as much. It is only super apparent once you hold it in comparison to another device. Otherwise, in normal use you will probably stop being bothered by it and mostly forget about it completely.
