[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kishorsidu:
Thank you... I'll try it...

One more doubt... Will deleting the mentioned file damage the tab's wifi in any other way like not connecting other channel forms?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] formatti:
I did wipe that file away without any consequensies, but if you want, you can save it somewhere before deleting. System creates a new file soon after the new wifi connections are created.

for some reasons wpa/wpa2/aes/tkip are difficult to android, but the wifi routers firmware upgrade + factory resetting or only factory resetting helps in most cases of that kind of problems. Hope you get help

I am trying to root my phone, was in the command prompt in my computer and when I type this:

adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter

I get this message:

Failed to set prot mask (Inappropriate ioctl for device)

What does that mean? what did I do wrong?

What guide are you using and what version of android is on your phone? You have to be specific to get help around here
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectkennedy:
I am using the wiki guide (shouldn't that be the best guide to use?! why are there so many!?)

And my android version is 2.3.3

I tried making a goldcard but when I tried to load the pcimg10.zip (or whatever it's called), it said something like the version was older and then it cancelled and I had to just reboot my phone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nipqer:
You need to follow the downgrade guide. You can find it in the Development subforum, or it should be linked in the wiki guide.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] projectkennedy:
Thanks, will go back and try the guide in the developer's forum.

Sorry for the confusion, I really have read up quite a bit and am just getting confused as to which guides to use when and have had a bit of a hard time finding files.

Really appreciate all the help! I'll get there one day haha
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] KDLMaj:
So...I've had my replacement Prime for two days, and a few minutes ago I realized my prime was acting oddly. I picked it up and smelled something burning- turns out my power cord is insanely hot and actually started to melt itself (there was smoke coming out of the base). Now I can't plug it in without it getting crazy hot, and my TP won't charge itself from it anyway.

Has this happened to anyone else? After the insanely frustrating series of customer service experienced I had getting the first one replaced, I'm REALLY not looking forward to dealing with them again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dagrim1:
This was an issue with the TF101 already, quite insane they haven't addressed this issue with the TF201. Sometimes I really don't understand what's going on with these companies.

Perhaps this is of use, originally meant for the TF101 but think it'll apply to the TF201 as well:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1087321
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
TF201 charger is the exact same one as TF101 charger, so problems with original TF101 charger are the same in TF201. ASUS actually sells the charger as Eee Pad charger, independent from model number.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
This is a safety issue. ASUS should accommodate anyone who experiences this. Otherwise, you ARE bound by law to sue the pants off of them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 1SiK1500:
Thats insane. Imagine if you came home and you house had burned down due to this. Or more or less my apartment which attaches to 6 other apartments.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Beards:
Contact Asus and tell them unless they sort this out immediately you are going to post this info on Facebook, Twitter, Blog sites.... basically anywhere where it will attract attention.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
I noticed that my power charger seems to get quite hot when I charge the thing. I didn't think too much of it as I have seen several chargers for other devices get hot.

I haven't noticed any melting or anything though, but I will probably keep a closer on it now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Good looking out on the heads up. Will keep a close eye on charger. This is crazy n a major safety hazard. Asus just asking for a lawsuit with this one. Safety is something you can't shortchange the consumer on.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ToneyEricsson:
Get some photos to send Asus.

I thought the power cable was crap and there's photo's on there showing it falling apart for some people.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Yeah mine no longer works either the adapter piece you plug in the wall sucks!

I am gonna call them and see about them sending a new cord because if not I will just have to report it to whoever regulates fire control and the BBB and get a recall on it! I mean it would be so simp for them to replace it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Somewhat related: I've been very questionable about the cable ever since I got it so I've been more careful with it than I have the Prime.

I use a bottle of deodorant spray to hold the cable upwards onto the top of my dresser where I charge my Prime. I apply the weight on the cable, not the connector portion.

I haven't had any heating or material decay issues doing this. Something I've learned w/ shoddy Apple chargers... third-party ones are generally built better and cheaper.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] orlandojumpoff:
I've heard many people complain about their chargers malfunctioning in one way or another. I did not expect an issue like this and it's unacceptable. My charger gets really hot when charging for just half an hour to an hour, so after hearing about this and other issues, I have to make sure I'm present when charging to avoid my house being burned to the ground. The worst part is hearing this problem existed with the original Transformer and they still used the same charger. WTF Asus.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
So Asus replaced the dock but not the charger, that doesn't make sense at all since the entire unit will now draw more power and that means higher current. But this time at least only the adapater needs replaced. A real fire hazard alright, it's just like smoking in bed. One more problem to account for.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] andyxover:
Just curious those having over heat charger are you plugging to the wall or extension cord? Surge protection or not?

I plug mine straight to the wall and never have this issue, it doesn't even get that hot, weird. Well, maybe its because its been insanely cold here lately.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
It depends on your battery's remaining charge, a fully drained battery will pull a lot of power which will lead to the overheated charger. I always keep mine almost fully charged and have never had a hot charger but now that it has been brought up I will start oberving this sucker.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayer69:
Plastic Wrap????

I have read about the charger over heating for some, and when I was un-boxing my 2 primes a silly but maybe relevant question came to mind for the people that are seeing this issue. Did you remove all the plastic wrap from the charger and all connectors? I know some people think "leave the plastic on to protect the casing" but I just wonder. OP? Did you remove it? or leave it on? I know if I was wrapped in plastic it would get very hot. I hope you don't find it offensive that I ask this.....just sometimes the simple things can cause havoc.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
No heating here, connected directly to wall outlet and removed all plastic.

But defective accessories for mobile devices are a dime a dozen.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bimbobo:
Mine is warm too, but not too hot.

Question: what kind of "other brand charger" can you use? There should be a "copy" somewhere.

I am in Denmark, so maybe not same "type" as in US.. bur German or Dutch people here maybe know.

BTW, the ATP charger is also good for an IPad2... It seems they have same type of volatge and so on..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Just remember, if you decide on another charger, remember that the normal USB universal charger will not work. You must have one that supports up to 15v output for the Prime, normal USB voltage is 5v.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pslotter:
I have a slightly different concern with the charging - I/O cable.

The Verteks case I bought folds closed around the bottom and prevents me from closing the cover while plugged in and if I stand it up in Landscape view all the weight rests on the cord causing a 90deg kink right at the base of the connector as well as all the weight resting on the I/O port.

I have avoided doing either of those things since I noticed it and have been thinking of ways around the issue.

I'm not ready to cut a hole in the leather case just yet, but I do want to avoid stressing the I/O port.

Anyone have ideas?

TIA
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
mine definitely gets pretty warm when charging for awhile.

I think I will try to not charge both dock and tablet at the same time if they are both low, just to make sure the time charging isn't too long.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
Good idea, also get a battery notifier widget in order to set an alarm when battery level is down to a set limit, like 50% for example. You can monitor the length of charge vs the charger temperature (tape a fever thermometer) so you can calculate the best time to recharge. Good luck! :D

---------- Post added at 01:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

At least two:

1. Use the tab in portrait mode, there's an app (Orientation Control) that will force all apps in portrait mode.

2. If ICS allows it, rotate the landscape mode 180 degrees so the power connector is at the top.

I hope Asus is reading this and making the design changes for the next line of Primes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pragmatous:
Contact your Attorney General and I'm sure he'll be more than happy to look into your claim.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] KDLMaj:
It was partially removed plastic. But the smoke and burning was from inside the plug, not on the outside.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slugbug2010:
I see someone posted that theirs doesn't get warm at all. I'm surprised by that.

Mine gets hot. I don't leave it plugged in at night anymore or when I leave the house. Yes I've forgotten and done it anyway, but I try not to. It's just too hot for my comfort level.

I'm plugged into an extension cord that is plugged into a surge protector.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Red One:
I'm thinking this has to do with the universal adapter they use. All they do is swap out the type wall socket adapter for the region it goes to. I've never opened one up before but I can't only assume they use an adapter that by default pushes 220, but has a step down converter inside that converts the power to 110. The left over power turns into heat from the process and the cheap plastic craps out.

I would be interested to see if the overheating only occurs in models shipped to regions that have 110 vs regions who have 220.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
I looked at both 101 and 201 specs but I couldn't find any info on the power adaptors, the voltage should be around 5v so I'd like to see the current ratings of the adapters just for comparison. They had better be almost the same value.

---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

If it's plugged in while in use, then the batteries will not drain and the charger will not heat up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NAiLs00:
I am on my third Prime. I just picked up my 3rd one tonight at a local Best Buy that got them in today. My very first Prime's charger got very hot, which was concerning. I also noticed right away that the proprietary connector's shell around the electronics was not secured and slipped off easily. My 2nd and 3rd Primes, the charger is cool to the touch. My new Prime was completely discharged when I got it, I unplugged it after about 5 hours of charging and it was nice and cool. Now it will sit and charge over night by my bed... likely to remain the same temperature.

Good luck with what happens in your case! I had a feeling my first charger was defective and a hazard!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] orlandojumpoff:
I'm glad there are some people with chargers acting normally, but there are just too many that are getting hotter than expected. Asus still needs to get on this and possibly offer replacement chargers for those requesting one. I shouldn't be afraid to leave my Prime alone for a couple hours. Haven't had that concern with any of my other tablets or smartphones and I've had a dozen over the past few years. I could put up with some of the other issues, but this one is just too scary.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
TF201 & TF201 voltage is 15v. Normal USB uses up to 5v.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjdevega:
The 2 previous Primes I had did not have any charger over heating issues. I'm also pretty confident that it will be the same when I get my 3rd Prime tomorrow. I'm fairly certain that this is not a wide spread issue. People seem to panick so quickly in this forum.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Hmm. I immediately noticed that my charger gets extremely hot to the touch when charging the tablet. I assumed this happened w/ all of the TP chargers, but I'm now wondering if this is a huge safety hazard.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Red One:
I wasn't meaning the 101 vs the 201. I meant 110v vs 220v. The USA uses 110v. To my knowledge most other countries use 220v. This is why the need for an adapter that works anywhere with an interchangeable power socket type is used, or so I believe. If you look at your charger, you can pull off the pronged part. Depending on which region of the world they sell the tablet to could determine which prongs you get. But the adapter is designed to compensate no matter where. The only issue here is that they use cheap plastic or don't have enough methods to disperse the heat.

[HTC Salsa] monty80:
HTC has released a utility to unlock bootloader of your HTC device. If you get that, you can root your phone. No need to get a S-OFF. My salsa is S-ON yet rooted.

I am not sure what benifits S-off will offer over htc unlock bootloader. May be BigBearEvo can throw some light on it.

If you just want to root, htc unlock bootloader works fine.
[HTC Salsa] shivunaikc:
HTC unlocking is same as u s-off...

more beneficial than normally unlocking using xtc clip.

in boot loader menu it shows as S-ON, but functions as S-OFF.

just check whether it shows "unlocked" in boot loader menu.

HTC unlocking is complete solution for root access.
[HTC Salsa] monty80:
Nope, I dont think HTCDEV Unlock bootloader will give you network unlock and radio unlock. If you get xtc-clip s-off it will let you change radio and network lock as well. I have never tried though.

** This is completely unsupported!!!!!!! **

ALL credit goes to saurik for the root method, Jason A. Donenfeld (zx2c4) for finding the exploit, alpharevx for finding the offsets and initial confirmation on the Transformer Prime and viperboy for finding it and posting it in his thread. I did not research, find, or develop this root method!

Mods, if I've done anything wrong, please feel free to remove this thread.

You will need to know how to use ADB commands, otherwise, use viperMOD PrimeTime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Downloads:

mempodroid binary

su binary

Root:

adb push mempodroid /data/local

adb push su /data/local

adb shell

chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid

/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh

** You should now be in a remote shell session with root (indicated by #)

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system

** IF you have previously rooted your Prime, run the following two commands. They may throw an error that the file a file was not found.

rm /system/bin/su

rm /system/xbin/su

cat /data/local/su > /system/xbin/su

chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su

chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su

rm /data/local/mempodroid

rm /data/local/su

exit

exit

adb reboot

After your Transformer Prime comes up, install Superuser from android market.

HOPEFULLY everyone has learned their lesson and will also install Voodoo Rootkeeper as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! R

Enjoi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

** Feb 21 2012 Edit **

Works on 9.4.2.14

** Feb 09 2012 Edit **

Works on 9.4.2.13

** Jan 25 2012 Edit **

Changed the mount command - thanks viperboy!

Added steps to possibly resolve issues with previously rooted systems

Changed a few steps to be a little bit easier.

**Jan 24 2012 Edit **

Some people are reporting issues with this method. I suspect this is due to previously having root or other altered files. A method that has worked for some is to update to 9.4.2.11.1 and then following the above procedures. Please note, this firmware release is unofficial and at this time THERE IS NO DOWNGRADE PATH.
