[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Screwedupsmitty:
Theres obviously alot of primes out there that are perfectly fine. Like I said, most polls range from 20-30% of primes having wifi issues, clearly the largest problem among a list of 3-4 valid concerns. I just thought that it was interesting that retailers are actually stepping in to protect the consumer in such a dramatic way. I've never heard of anything like this, even with much bigger hardware failures (RROD anyone?).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HiddenSanctum:
I doubt retailers are stepping in to protect the consumer. Its more likely that the returns are making the retailers lose money and they refuse to buy anymore from Asus until they solve the problems.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SHRED:
No surprise there. I had 3 primes in my hands the last month.

2 in the US from Best Buy both with dead pixels

1 in the UK, tablet great except for a little light bleed but the dock was DOA. Couldn't get the dock to charge at all, like the battery is non-existant.

I am still trying for another one.. that's after John Lewis UK can't get any in stock and had to cancel.

Nervous getting it from Frys and Best Buy next week when I am in the US again. If I get it in the UK I can get 2 years warranty.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
For sure an open box return item will no longer sell as brand new for the same price.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoteriX:
*rolls eyes*

I've witnesses multiple smartphone and device launches, and I hear the same crap about foolish users returning 3-5 phones -- this is even for the HTC Evo and HTC Evo 3D which are regarded has being quite commercially successful.

There are some legitimate issues out there that warrant a return (serial number bug here comes to mind), but I'm willing to put money down that many of the returned units are fine, but were returned because of overzealous customers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
True...I had ran out of thankx
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
But you're talking about devices that sell in the millions. It's not the number of returns that's the issue it's the ratio. The LG G2X return rate was so bad T-Mobile actually pullled it for a period of time until 2.3 could be released. It's life from launch to EOL was troubled and painful for customers, T-Mobile, and LG.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] monkey10120:
that's great that they are doing that. its a $500 dollar product and we deserve a product worth $500. Now lets hope Bestbuy does this. lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reNeglect:
Most of the returns, I think in my honest opinion are the bandwagoners and people thinking the Asus tfp can replace a laptop. Because of the poorly done advertisement it makes people think it has enough processing power and still a buggy os to replace a laptop or the people thinking this is the iPad killer well to be honest nothing is going to be a iPad killer the two OS these devices in my opinion is aimed at a different groups. Sure there are issues with wifi, screen bleeding, GPS there's nothing perfect out there and never will be. Yes we can all dream of a 1080p or higher res display panel, wacom digitizer, strong wifi & GPS extremely thin profile, long battery life, and the list goes on and on. Most of the people complaining that their unit sucks and blah blah blah should just go return it and wait for the next tablet to hit the market. Personally I wanted a unit with a wacom digitizer but the keyboard dock and how Asus has made it more unified with the tablet just sold me on it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kobald:
Agreed. Half of them complain about GPS. I say to them, go back to your laptop if you need GPS! We don't need it!!!

The other half complaining about loose screen, bad colors, light bleed, poor WiFi, BT/WiFi, chargers falling apart, bad battery. To them I say, go hop on the bandwagon, you bandwagoners!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kobald:
...and to the other 30% claiming that iPad1 surfs the web smoother than TFP with ICS, I say whatever!!! Its a tablet, go back to your laptop!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HiddenSanctum:
Didn't Android Developers already explained to us why iOS "seems" smoother than ICS already? iOS prioritizes the UI (so you can't tell that the system is lagging or maybe even crashing in the background until of course the thing exits out). Android does everything at once so its quite obvious if the system is lagging. Or at least that is my understanding (correct me if I am wrong)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Kobald:
I had not heard that, but it makes perfect sense. Just because iOS "seems" smoother than TFP, who cares. Our quad cores are being utilzed more efficiently. iPad1 doesn't even have quad cores, so we are more better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 729927852:
I got the Prime from staples.ca last tues the 16th and all the software seemed to be working very well. The GPS was able to catch 2 satellites from my house window but lost them very quickly and I didn't try it outside in the open - its too damn cold :P. And the only problem I found with the wifi was that it didn't instantly connect when I unlocked it, I had to turn off and on the wifi so that it would connect sometimes.

This prime unfortunately had a defect in the lens where it had 2 specs INSIDE the lens.

Today I got my second prime and this time the lens looked fogged/hazed on the inside and there was 2 points of backlight bleed... I didn't bother to set it up so I don't know whether or not there are problems with anything else.

Hopefully I get an acceptable prime from futureshop...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Asus' profit...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Fking1:
I've been using it for a week now and a lot of the 1280x720 movies are freezing from time to time. It seems like the phone struggles to output them.

When i watch them on the phone directly (without the nhl-hdmi adapter) it's significantly better but still misses frames here and there. That goes for both the hardware and software decoding.

It was supposed to do that fluently right?

Any advices on how to have steady HD experience?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcotter:
Hello everybody,

Since i cant get no updates (2.3.6) soon from my provider (Vodafone Germany), is possible to use one of the official roms or stock roms, and update my Note manually ?

If so, which Rom... ?

can i update to Open Europe ?

I'm on

2.3.5

Version n7000xxkj4

csc n7000vd2kj1

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qvp:
of course you can.

check this thread

or do the following:

download XLA4 latest firmware europe and extract to a folder

download odin 1.85

Password : samfirmware.com

download and install kies for samsung

turn off your note, then press and hold volume down key+menu+power

a menu appears, choose continue (volume up i think)

open odin, plug in your note via usb to computer. you should see a yellow line COM:# connected

If your downloaded ROM contains single file

go to odin, browse the folder you extracted the files to and

Choose PDA button in Odin and press start

if more items then

CODE in PDA, MODEM in PHONE, Multi CSC in CSC and press start

good luck
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcotter:
Thank u... i will try it!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
and double check "Re-partition" , it should be un-ticked. and do not select any pit files while flashing.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcotter:
Just one more question... if i want my phone rooted, should i first root it? I mean before i apply the upgrade.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjan.alva:
Yes. you have to root it first. because latest firmwares are not directly rootable. just go through this link you can find which firmwares are rootable directly.

Question.... how do i know if im still rooted?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcotter:
And Kies is telling me that :
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
If you updated through odin or kies then you lost root. If you upgraded through mobile odin pro then you should still be rooted.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcotter:
I updated through odin.... can i still root my phone or must i do a downgrade?

thanks for your patience!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Downgrade first.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwboston:
Kies is telling you that because there is a CSC code mismatch between the ROM you are running and what is on your device. You can change the CSC code by typing the following in the dialer: *#272*IMEI# where IMEI is your phone's IMEI number. I suggest choosing DBT since that is the unlocked Germany CSC and seems to get the most frequent updates. I changed my XEN (Netherlands) Note to a DBT one last week and it worked fine.

Changing the CSC will factory reset your Note, so back up your data first.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raygarcia95:
Hey everyone at xda im new here. I have an lg optimus p500 and everytime i try to overclock to 806 it crashes how come that happens?. Im using francos kernel on cm7 rc1 sonygenmod rom. Im not bew to rooting or overclocking..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] glevitan:
First, I have to tell you that I own an HTC Inspire so I am not certain that this will actually help, but I have seen many cases when people try to overclock their cells and experiencing crashes. The main reason is that your Rom might be overclocked already and then the app you are using might be in conflict with the script in the kernel. The other reason, might be that you phone can´t be overclocked to 806 and therefore you should try a bit less. As I said before I do not own an LG but I am pretty sure that CM7 is overclocked in its kernel...hope it helps. ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RubyRhod62:
Another reason can be that your chip can't work at this speed without problems. There's a reason why manufacturers use a certain frequency for their processor, it's a ratio between power consumption, heat, and maybe reliablility... Some processors can handle perfectly the overclock, some don't...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RockR172:
O1 cannot run @ 806mhz...

Tune down ur frequency to 729mhz..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raygarcia95:
Thanks for all the advice everyone.. i can get the processor clocked at 787 stable without crashin.. ive read reports that they have managed to clock this phone to 806mhz stable no crash. Lol guess in askin my phone for 2 much already huh.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bedman3:
I think the stable is 768mhz
[Optimus One, P500, V General] RockR172:
The most stable frequency is 729mhz and since you are a n00b, u shud use it since higher frequencies may give you random reboots after an hour and stuff.. different phones have different capabilities... some have even gone to 864mhz which is impossible on 99.9% optimus ones... rest 0.01% are lucky... ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
for u stable is 787...

everyphone is different and stable at different frequencies...

u can try 806 with franco gamer v20
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raygarcia95:
Lol ik im a n00b. But yeah ive been using 787 without any issues. But i decrease it once in a while when not home to save battery
[Optimus One, P500, V General] raygarcia95:
do you think you could provide a link for franco gamer v20? it would really help.

Thanks in advance
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ccengineer:
Since this is an older phone I'm thinking of trying to come up with a free Hard SPL and an unlocker for this phone. I know there is a HardSPL made by olinex group, but it only allows one free hardspl (I have 5 lines on my plan and thinking of getting TP2s for all of them) and theya re charging for the unlocking. I would like to check if there is still an interest in such a free tool. I don't want to spend a lot of time on something that I would only benefit from very few times and no one else would be interested in using.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Perhaps bug Olipro, see if he'd be willing to do that...? I can't imagine they're making too much money off the project anymore...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr.horndoctor:
Yes, definitely. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] RORYtheALLSTAR:
Yeah please do it!! Im new to all this but I know I really need the HardSPL flash software.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ccengineer:
It doesn't look like this phone is as popular any more. Only two people interested in this. So I'm definitely not going to dedicate a lot of time to this. So I might work on it when I have time to kill but will not give it high priority. I'll keep monitoring the thread to see if this changes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mr.horndoctor:
If you go over to ppcgeeks.com I think you'll find it's still very popular.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Chaos Design:
It would be nice, i have just setup 10 devices without HSPL using stock Roms, but i would love to be able to freely HSPL phones we are looking at setting up about another 15 at this stage, we can get a lot of these phones for $190NZ.

If i was able to HSPL them we might get another 50+

It is true that these phones are getting older now, but in saying that they are a good quality phone that preforms as expected no matter what i throw at it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ImTuxy:
Well, count me as third one :) And nand is coming for the tp2, so interest will grow.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] arrrghhh:
Coming? 'tis here...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ImTuxy:
Yes, but that thread says [testing]. Thats ok, because for me [stable] is less interesting. But my wife definitely wants [stable] and doesn't want to make an exception to that general rule when it comes to her phone :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
blah
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cheftimothy:
One more person wants it!

After unlocking my first one, I really wanted to use it on the second one I found at a great price.

I have a great deal of respect for the folks (guy/gal) that originally cracked the boot loader, but it has been over a month since I requested to use it on a second device, and despite polite correspondence, my "ticket" is still "open".

I can understand them being busy with newer devices, but I think it is kind of sad that they have the code, and will not even respond to requests for it.

A simple "we no longer support this device" would have been appreciated, as apposed to leaving people hanging for a ticket that will never be addressed.

Even kinder, if they are not gaining revenue from it, maybe set it free!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cnmarchant:
thanks

cajun

I've just used your keyboard fix after installing kwbr's Tilt 2 rom. Thank you very much, worked beautifully. I'd thank everyone on that thread except I'm not allowed.

Took me ages to get ActiveSync to work in XP, had to install a CAB supplied on the hard spl thread to get it to work. Thanks for your efforts.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eyeb:
I'd like to unlock mine just for the sake of it, plan on keeping it with sprint but who knows in future? which is why I'd unlock mine lol, but since I have no real need presently I'm not tempted enough to pay for it, since the cost of the unlock is more than what phone is now worth :S
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] supermaxkato:
Got an ebay replacement for my TP2 and got the "commercial" error message from the Rhodium HardSPL file. Not looking to jip anyone, just want to get my replacement back to the way my old phone was. PM'd Olipro, but I know they are busy (no response yet to ticket).

So if this thread leads to another way to HSPL these things then that would make my phone very happy.

Cajunflavoredbob, could you PM me too?

Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] visegrip72:
Count me in. I still use mine as primary phone, but will upgrade soon and nice to have unlocked. Also interested on the behind the scenes as to how it all worked, read the other thread in ppc a few minutes ago and wondered if there were any interest in this. Also wonder if anyone has the stuff from the other groups I could look at, even if it would not work for me.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Spado:
Yeah I bought off eBay a bad ESN Verizon one for 40$ thinking it would have worked perfectly with GSM networks here in Italy to then find out that I would have had to pay another 20$ to Olinex just to unlock it. I owned one and paid that fee in 2009 (and that's why I bought one again... I loved it so much...) and he didn't ever answer my ticket where I was asking for this favor seeing I already donated and it would be dumb anyway to pay 20$ to unlock a 40$ worth phone...

[GT540 Optimus General] hmskrecik:
Hai,

Since nobody bothered to answer my call to track down what drains the battery I decided to just post my findings and you do with it whatever you like...

In recent couple of months I've been experiencing quite nice battery life, almost a week on standby, which is basically on par with original LG ROM. The trick is simple:

It's happening as long as the Gallery app is NOT running.

I don't know what this piece of software does but when it's loaded to memory it stays in there and ignores attempts to terminate it, doesn't sleep when phone wants to and eats battery in a matter of single day. Unfortunately it seems some other apps use it directly or indirectly, like when Wi-Fi starts and/or by Market for example. Thus my solution is just to force close the Gallery after I finish activities which seem to require it.

I don't know whether root of the problem is with the app itself (like, CM modifications made so it's more cool, at the price) or it's just something else unearthed by certain SwiftDroid's configuration. To anyone who wishes to furher investigate my sincerest good luck. And I'd be grateful if results were published too.
[GT540 Optimus General] andreas__:
i deleted this slow sh** from /system/app and installed QuickPic! :D
[GT540 Optimus General] Eth4n:
Are you joking? Should i use my phone as a doorstop,or what else? :rolleyes:

EDIT: And,an old trick: when an app stays opened,to prevent it to reload again you have to delete his user data (works with Maps and Gmail too)
[GT540 Optimus General] hmskrecik:
You do with your phone what it damned pleases you. In case you haven't noticed the battery life is most often reported as either standby time or call time. In my typical usage battery lasts no less than two or three days but what 'typical usage' means may mean totally different things to me and to you.

Hm, even more shotgun approach to what I described. Having user data could be the primary reason for keeping the app installed. But thanks for tip anyway, may come handy one day.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tobiascrystal:
I know this subject has been beaten to death but with the evolution of all the different ROMs it is tough to try them all myself. I have a tmous Hd2 and I am looking for a rom with a few things that are becoming very important to me. My girlfriend and I are having our first kid pretty soon so my priorities are changing. This is what I am looking for.

1. A great camera.

I need it to be clear, fast and stable! No FCs or lost pictures. I need to be able to access it from the lock screen to be able to catch those really quick cute moments.

2. A good video recorder.

I need it to capture video's that you can see as clearly as possible with our phone. Also I would like it to be able to play them back on the phone as well as ANY computer.

3. A very stable phone.

I am out and away from home alot and I need to know that all of my phone calls and text messages and emails are getting to me.

4. Android based of course. That is why I am posting it here! I like the android os.

5. Not really as important but I would like it to be nand only so I can swap out the sd card whenever it gets full without worrying about loosing anything.

Everything else doesn't really matter to me. It could be plain old froyo for all I care just as long as it just works!

Thank you.
