[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrKuenning:
Prime came in this week and I have been mostly happy with it. It came with HC and updated to ICS smoothly within minutes. However there are some issues, and I wanted to see if they are normal or if I should exchange it.

First off there are three hardware defects.

1. I have the wonderful "quacking" vibration motor that is louder than the speaker.

2. I have a dent in the metal along the bottom edge of the device.

3. I have one white pixel at the top of the screen.

But the real issues I am having seem to be software issues.

Every third app I open seems to crash.

Example I will open CNN app and it would close and say "Unfortunately, CNN has stopped." Then after the app closes it will repeat that message over and over.

The XDA app wont even work.

I also get random graphical glitches.

Mouse cursor turns into square

Half of the screen get blinking lines on the camera

Random blinking white flashes.

Are these normal, is it a lack of tegra 3 support in the apps?

Is this a ICS is new thing? Or do i have a bad memory chip?

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
As far as apps crashing goes. There's slot of apps out not updated for ICS yet. You have to remember its still fairly new so it'll take time for apps to catch up. Just because app worked on HC doesn't mean it'll work on ICS. ICS broke a few of my apps also. I already knew this was coming from an article I read back before ics even released on prime. Something about ICS forcing apps to use hardware acceleration. Before apps were given a choice or best method to use. So with this new forcing, its breaking alot of apps that aren't ready for that or whatever yet. The free xda app won't work. You need the premium one. Works great on ICS.

AS for your other issues, I'd say just exchange it. I wouldn't take any device with a dent in it. The vibrating motor, don't know about it. I keel it off as its a battery drainer. Glitches or whatever, try a simple reboot.

Honestly your issues, aside from apps, warrants an exchange. For the dent alone I'd do it n immediately. That means it must've been dropped or mishandled somewhere down the line. Possible reason tl glitches although most of the time its software n reboot fixes it. I'd say return and exchange it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrKuenning:
Thanks for you reply. I will probably return it then. Hard when it took two months to get here. Hopefully, I will be able to find them in the stores locally soon.

The topic for this was a joke. You know what annoys me, every person that over abuses the online petition to attempt to get something better. Don't get me wrong, it can be very necessary, but it can easily be abused. Sorry about my rant....

Here's my question for developers/members:

Once the bootloader for the Asus Transformer Prime is unlocked, what do we plan to do with it? I know the obvious answer is "Build Custom Roms", but I want to know more of what is expected to be accomplished with this new power we will be able to control!! I heard that we may be able to fully install Ubuntu once this this is unlocked. I want this thread to be about all the details we want to change with the prime to make it better, faster, and stronger. If we get a large list of opinions on what we want out of this thing, we can help developers get an idea on how we can make this Ipad killer perfect. Please make as many creative ideas as you can because it will always help improve the prime more

I installed something similar to quick settings, it was free. It may have been Extended controls but I think it started with U. Anyway, extended controls would work but I can't add an app launcher.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] raylgo:
My friend recently got a Galaxy Tab 8.9 which is also Tegra 2 powered like the Transformer. I witnessed a lot of slowdown and frequent crashes which require rebooting of the device. He was contemplating on having it exchanged for another unit but he blames the Tegra 2 inside.

Now I have not read a lot about the Tegra 2 SoC but can his claim be true? Or maybe that was just the fault of the stock ROM and kernel? Was stock HC on the Transformer that bad? I saw the many ROMs for this device and that was one factor in me wanting to get it in the next 2 months (hoping to find a good deal on ebay)...

I was thinking that a tweaked out Transformer could be better than the average Tegra 2 device (since it has a lot of expandable memory + keyboard dock + USB slots). Because if a tweaked Transformer still could not deal with the "problems" of Tegra 2, I might just get another dual-core tablet that isnt on Tegra (Galaxy Tab 7.0+ or 7.7) or I might wait until the Transformer Prime gets its stuff together...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mlbl:
for the TF101 aka transformer first gen, i do get reboots but that's on a rare occassion, if its often it could be due to heat issues, bad chip, etc...but so far the Tf101 is pretty rock solid if you ask me
[Eee Pad Transformer General] txtmikhail:
I NEVER had a reboot issue with my tablet..i dont know wat been going on for it to be happening to people.. also im on a custom Rom by the way.. I never use stock builds..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mlbl:
i'm on stock HC 3.2 with no issues other than very rare reboots..like 1 in 50 or so...extremely rare.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
I get reboots :( but i blame HC

Sent from my tf running krakd warped an twisted 1544mhz Blades kernel
[Eee Pad Transformer General] TellYourMomHi:
No Major Problems

I've had my TF for months now and I generally run Revolver

With that I've had no problems with reboots except in the case of overclocking and intensive gaming

Other than in those instances using N64oid playing Starfox, I have not had major reboot issues and would highly suggest keeping an eye for deals on this device
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
On stock. Absolutely no rebooted or crashes.

Tell him to stop pressing the power menu, or to get the tf101.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dan_Brutal:
The only time I get softboots or sleep of death is if I oc too high. Other then that, this tablet is rock solid.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] uploder:
the ONLY time I got a reboot was when I was O/C'd to the max and trying to play a specific game that doesnt seem to be tailored to our device in the first place. lol other than that, my tf is buttah. but to be fair the tf is a better device than the gtab. Im not sure if the samsuck made a better device from the original 7' to the newer 8.9 ones though....somehow i doubt it. Then again I am a little biased
[Eee Pad Transformer General] atlharp:
I agree with this assessment. Samsung has always managed to muck up Android in some fashion. At least they can make processors...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
It's really naive for him to blame this on Tegra 2 with no real compelling proof. Might as well blame it because it runs off of battery power too.

I'm running on stock and I've

never

had a crash or slowdown.

Never

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ligerblue:
Also running stock on 3.2 the ONLY reboot ive ever had was with a certain app, which is most likely the case with your friend also
[Eee Pad Transformer General] moehagene:
I've had my transformer from day one. I've used Prime and Revolver and only had reboots when overclocked to the max.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] infazzdar:
On stock, the only reboots that I've had have been because I didn't reboot for a week or two or so.

As far as the Tegra 2 being the devices problem, I highly doubt it. It just seems like bad software on Samsung's part, or maybe a rogue app.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jasonwuzthere:
Sounds much more like a rogue app, than anything. Quiet a few people seem to like Samsung's touchwiz interface, but then again, my sister had an OG Galaxy S phone that was a total turd.

To blame a processor sounds more like a fanboy of some sorts. There's a thousand things inside these tabs that could cause slow downs and crashes hardware wise.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] No_u:
Mine hasn't done anything weird since I've rooted. I'm also very lucky to run @1.6 Ghz flawlessly :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] KaliKot:
I've had slowdowns,a few crashes and reboots but only if I fill up the device with boatloads of apps

I generally blame Honeycomb being bad.

Tegra 2's real fault lies with its video decoding on HD videos
[Eee Pad Transformer General] voyager_s:
Well I don't think I have ever had a reboot in my 4 months ownership of the transformer so far.

I do get little sluggish slow response sometimes but I think that has to do with honeycomb rather than tegra 2. Honeycomb is a fantastic OS but it does suffer from occasional slowdowns sometimes. Something ICS will iron out I'm sure.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] asdfuogh:
I never had any problems before I rooted it and started overclocking to stupid levels. I haven't had any problems since I stopped overclocking it past 1600 though. (Problems as in rebooting, my Netflix seems to be ****ty though, when I have time, I'm gonna change everything and perhaps flash Revolver instead, although to be honest, I'd rather get ICS or CM9 when it comes..)
[EVO Shift 4G General] Geekaholic:
I've been experimenting with the built-in SIP functionality in Gingerbread. Here's what I have so far:

I have three different Google Voice numbers. My main GV number is linked to the official GV app on my phone, and I use it for most calls.

My other two numbers forward to SipGate accounts. I configured the Gingerbread internet call menu with my SipGate accounts. My use of those lines is specific and limited enough that I enable SIP calling only when I need it.

I use the Google Voice mobile site when I need to originate calls for my secondary numbers. I know some people prefer third-party callback apps, but sometimes those stop working when Google changes their API. Those numbers are mostly incoming anyway, so that's a minor issue.

Because my phone is rooted, I can make VoIP calls on both wifi and cellular data, although quality suffers on 3G.

If anyone is interested in how to set this up, I posted complete configuration instructions on my blog.

Also, if anyone has ideas for a better setup, I'd love to hear them.

I am just now starting voip class at my college and this seems like a fun little experiment to help me learn a bit and see what it can do. Thanks.
[EVO Shift 4G General] Aestivalis:
Good guide. I could have used this a few months ago. I've tried exactly the same steps on my Shift, even to the point of installing iDialer and Fring on my HTC Touch Pro 2 (same as the Tilt 2). In both cases I was never happy with the performance though (and I couldn't get iDialer to integrate with GV to make it work as a VOIP only WiFi phone). There's always a lag, which throws off my wife whenever we try to use it.

I just tried Talkatone Preview for Android as well, and it's slightly better, but there's still a lag.
[EVO Shift 4G General] hamagc:
Have you looked at grooveip? the app and a voice number is all you need. Roommates cells got turned off so I went with groove and it seems to work great.
[EVO Shift 4G General] VICODAN:
Keep up the great work.

I would probably use this if I needed to make international calls.

I get good enough Sprint service here that I'm never out of coverage, but international calls can run that bill up.

This is the major pitfall of VOIP in general, but I did find a really cool app that made calls after you listened to an ad. I'll try and locate it. You need a computer and mic for it. It's like Skype, but free.
[EVO Shift 4G General] travanx:
Grooveip is really nice. I was using that to make free calls back to the states while in sout east asia. Easy to get free wireless hotspots over there.
[EVO Shift 4G General] blakeatl:
I use Linphone but it's configured to my home voip provider (Callcentric). It should work also to make free calls though.

Thanks Calli

Hi calli

If and when you find out anything about the availability and pricing of the HTC Titan 2 in South Africa, I would be very keen to know. Seems that Leaf have absolutely zero going on at their website, and I don't know who else would be the agents.

Have you thought about the Lumia 900?
[General Questions and Answers] Android311:
Check eBay
[General Questions and Answers] calli:
Yes definetley , but unfortunately there is no definitive date when and if the Lumia 900 will be launched in South Africa either. At least Nokia supports Windows Phone 7.5 fully, unlike HTC whose primary focus is Android. Leaf claim they are waiting for Apollo before they launch the Titan. Question is how well will they support WP 7.5?

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Trix777:
Hey guys, I've searched extensively for this but I really need a mod/app/kernel / rom that will allow phone call audio out on the original samsung car dock. Music works fine and it's loud and clear on car stereo but phone calls just get routed to phones own loudspeaker.

The Dock plugs into phone via micro usb then you plug in a 3.5mm headphone jack and separate charging cable into the dock itself

Any help would be really appreciated!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
A mechanical alternative might be to get an audio jack splitter and a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable, then plug that into the top of the phone and the other end into the splitter, which then goes into the dock with the one spare female jack being for a cable to the car audio input. No clue if that will work though, but in theory...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Trix777:
That's a good idea but liked the fact the dock is pretty hassle free. Just pop the phone in and everything is connected. Anyone have any other solutions or links to custom ROMs that have sorted this issue?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] claimui:
An audio splitter splits the audio, it does not combine it. What you want is a mixer, which is a different product (and usually much more expensive). A mixer is designed to attenuate the signal from the two inputs so that the combined output doesn't overload the speakers.

So in theory, it would not work. But in practice you might be able to get away with it as long as you don't try to use both phone outputs at the same time. But if you care about the speakers on your car, I wouldn't risk it.

To the OP, I think the phone will send both music and calls over Bluetooth, so you might look into a Bluetooth adapter for your car as a possible solution. Something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Britelink-Bluetooth-Audio-Receiver-Portable/dp/B0059M4G9K
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Trix777:
Thanks for the advice!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:
I know what you mean, but I don't think adding dual inputs to the line-in would in any way affect the actual speakers. I've used this method on various gear before and the result varies. Sometimes they mix fine, sometimes one signals essentially mutes the other.

A simple solution guaranteed to work however is to make a splitter that has a switch. More cumbersome, but it would allow you to manually switch from one input to the other when a call comes in.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bunnybash:
surely it would be a quick coding hack to a ROM which would allow phone audio to be routed through the dock, after all that is what happens to music and GPS instructions... so why not phone audio!?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Cptnodegard:

I was reading an article on Toms Hardware and somewhere in there it was mentioned that late last year, the Adreno guys released a driver that increased the performace of the 205 to levels past the 220. That would put or phones at the same level or faster than devices like the Sensation or the Amaze.
