[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJ in Compton:
I am planning on buying the bottom door for my nexus one from ebay since mine's a little beat up, but I want to know if it's possible to remove the contacts from the door that I own as a lot of the ebay auctions for the door appear to not have any contacts in place.

Otherwise, can anyone recommend me a place to buy one with the contacts?

Lastly, does anyone know if the chip for GPS or AGPS is located on the flex cable? (the piece which has the power button, headphone jack, and the black piece with square gold contacts running down in two lines) I just replaced mine and I don't know if the GPS connection got worse or not, but I am unable to get a lock on my phone.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
I think the cover just had holes in it, and the contacts poke through from the inside. Remove the cover, and the contacts will still be on your phone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OJ in Compton:
Not the case on my phone, the contacts on the cover touch contacts on the motherboard but they aren't physically attached. They are physically attached to the cover, and I cant think of an easy or non destructive way to remove them. Thanks for replying though:)

My 20 year old cousin sister is looking for a Android phone and the ACE just about fits in an extended budget.

Is the phone good? Or are there any better alternatives at similar prices?

The internal memory at 158Mb seems too low, is this a problem?

Will she be able to run games like Angry Birds?

She needs a stable ROM and will not be messing up with the phone much. Which ROM / Kernel is recommended?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] jinavs:
Ya! Its a good phone! But RAM is low! Games like Angry birds will hang a bit! But overall its a good phone and u can move to cm7 to play angrybirds without any problems! Also lagfree is a must install for all ace users! U can check android development section for more info.

Press thanks if i helped you!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
Choose some other phone. This phone is outdated.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace_viknesh:
If you know how to install ROM's and the necessary additions, 158 mb is not a problem. And this phone is damn good. Easy to flash ROMs and make the phone easily modified.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ace_viknesh:
The ICS Final or infinity speed ROM is definitely recommend. The kernel come with the ROMs.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] madman:
Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman at almost same price in mumbai.. and worth of price as more ram + processor + 320MB storage + ICS + walkman quality.... so it would be worth that money...

if you like ace then you might want to wait for some time as ace plus is expected to be launched at 15k with some good improvements
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] doubleomelette:
since she wont be messing about with the phone much, maybe stock roms would be better(functions like swipe to call) try ICS stock by rushabh25 its in the development section :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Kasnar:
This was my first Android phone so I really don't have vast experience, but I have learned to install CM7.2, many mods, hacks, etc and the phone is going like a champ, so it can take heavy modding and inexperienced users.

It is true that the limited internal memory is a problem, at least to me and it lags a bit playing games, even being OC'ed and optimized by scripts.

I do still recommend it, just make sure you install a lightweight launcher and try to keep the always running apps (facebook, twitter, whatsapp, etc) to the minimum those precious MBs of ram do hurt the performance, also disabling big, heavy widgets has shown improved performance.

Do not try to overclock over 902Mhz, I keep mine at 884Mhz though at 902 it was able to run normally throughout the day, but when playing games or doing CPU intensive tasks I do get hard resets.

I hope this helps you in making your mind.

Soft resets ;)

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
I've had my TF101 since launch and recently purchased a dock. Only trackpad on the dock works, none of the keys work. Tried the dock on another tf101 and it worked fine. After trying different roms and reverting to stock, came to the point where I had to send it in to Asus.

My question is, my bezel has 2 dents/knocks on the bottom corners, what are the chances Asus is going to say it's customer induced damaged and charge me for the repairs?

I remember reading a thread where someone had the same issue but I can't find it. Also I forgot to mention my light bleed had gotten worse and the rear case creaks, can I call them back up and tell them about that?

UPDATE: I just remembered that I complete forgot my 32GB microSD in the TF and it has a bunch of custom rom .zip files in it! :( What are the chances I get my microSD card back with my tF if they do replace the bezel?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
*Sigh*

It's 50/50 about the chances that they will call it customer induced damage.

Go ahead and call them up and tell them about it.

I'll be honest. Chances are you won't get your sdcard back. There's been too many reports of people not getting their stuff back. Here's why. In order to take out the bezel, they will need to remove the microsdcard. Chances are the card will get lost because it is so small.

My condolences.

Added by edit.

On a lighter note, here's a funny story. As you may know, I modify docks to solder in a 500/750gb hard drive. One time someone sent me his dock with his sdcard inside. I promised him I'd put pictures of the mod process inside his sdcard. When I opened it up, I found 16gb of gay porn inside. Thought it was hilarious.

Note that I am not homophobic. I date guys, actually. Still think that was hilarious. Hope you didn't leave your porn collection in there LOL.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
Haha, thank you, but thankfully it's a fairly new card and haven't had time to put anything on it :D

I had the latest version of Prime! and Revolver roms on their along with cwm and root apk's. Also had some videos of a storm that rolled through here last week and I think that's about it. But I just got the card, and for a good deal so I'll be pretty upset if I don't get it back :(

Side story: A couple years back I found a memory stick someone had left in the student lab, so I opened it up seeing if I could identify the owner and get it back to him/her. Well, turns out it was loaded with BEASTIALITY porn! I unplugged that thing soo quick and threw it across the lab floor, I didn't want to be caught with that **** on university computers!

update:

Just got off the phone with Asus, I added the light bleed and rear case creak to my RMA but now i'm thinking I shouldn't have. This is probably going to make the repair longer and I'm planning on heading out of town next weekend, I highly doubt it's going to get back to me in time :(. Also it wasn't bothering me that much before and now i'm worried it's going to get back worse then before. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

Regarding the microSD, the rep said he'd have to escalate my case to get the card sent back to me asap but no guarantee. TF hasn't reached them yet, should arrive either later today or early tomorrow. fingers crossed.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonwuzthere:
With their computer components you get ~14 days to post mark the item after you setup your RMA. You may want to read the entire email for your RMA.

And generally, no, you won't get your card back unless they immediately see the dents and package it up and send it back to you. Normally, ASUS isn't too picky, but there have been horror stories about the Texas RMA facility, sorry to say. If they do claim it as user damage, then they will email you before they repair it and ask if you want it done.

Edit: for I can count to potato.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
Got the delivery confirmation earlier today at noon, but the RMA status says they still haven't received it. I Know they usually take a while to update the status but i'm going to call tomorrow to check if they've mailed back my microSD card.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
The people in charge of updating your status can sometimes be pretty lazy. Last time I sent one in, confirmation said it arrived on monday, but their status said they hadn't received it until thursday. In fact, on thursday alone, it changed from not recieved to repairing to being inspected to ready to be shipped.

It's obvious they do everything and then changed the statuses all at once.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vf171:
I just sent mine into the TX RMA facility and received notiifcation that the cracked screen was due to customer induced damage. I have babied that damn thing since day one and it's always been in a case when not docked in the keyboard. All this to say, if my experience is any indication, it doesn't matter what happened, they will blame it on you and you'll have to pay. Good luck, ASUS customer support is a joke.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
How did the screen crack?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vf171:
My guess is cracked either closing it while docked to the keyboard or from inserting it into the dock/keyboard. Not sure which. It's never been dropped, abused, or misused that is for sure. I was told by the tech and her manager that the LCD screen never fails because of defects. It's always because of customer induced damage. That was an wesome hour-long conversation.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
If this is the case, then it's still customer induced damage.

Haha, if they said this, then it's total BS.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
That sucks. I had a dell streak 5" and they manufactured it by putting the digitzer on the lcd too tight. So if you'd tap normally in any of the corners it would show on the lcd as if you're pushing really hard on it. Someone on xda posted that dell had acknowledged it's their fault so a bunch of people sent theirs in for repair, but I guess they got flooded with repairs that the customer service was told the LCD was not covered. Had a fun convo with one gentleman who kept assuring me that the LCD was software and not covered by dell's hardware warranty!

In the end I just told them it was white in the corner, although the lcd was clearly damaged, sent it in and they mailed me a new one without charging me :D.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vf171:
:confused:

Really? That's like saying if GM designed the tailgate on a pick up with a defect and when you closed it, using normal, proper methods and forces, if it breaks that is customer induced damage.

My point is that unless I'm doing something that is prohibited in the warranty (abuse/misues) then the damage should be covered because it obviously is a result of a defect (manufacturing, design, etc..., take your pick I don't care which). Your logic (and ASUS') suggests that ALL damage that occurs while a customer is using the device is customer induced. So the only way to avoid customer induced damage is to not use your device. Genius.:cool:

Really, I was just sharing a data point for the OP to consider since he asked if the group thought ASUS would invoke the magical and all-encompassing "Customer Induced Damage".
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
So no one has yet to contact me about my microSD card although someone was supposed to. Called Asus up a few moments ago and rep said he'd put the escalation on high priority.

Also the charger on my dad's tf just went out so had to do another rma for that. Why do these companies insist on using proprietary ports?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
I guess in a sense you're right. You gotta understand, though, I've worked with a couple dozen units. Never had a problem with the dock causing any kind of physical damage. I'm just having a hard time visualizing how this was done.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vf171:
That is exactly my point! It would NEVER happen unless there was something wrong with the device or he dock.

---------- Post added at 05:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 AM ----------

Good luck. I just received notice that my TF shipped back today. I haven't decided if I'm going to and fix it or burn it in the backyard as I record it on my wife's iPad and upload to my new Facebook page, Asus Customer Service Sucks.

I did include all the original packaging and my wall adapter and power cord. I bet they don't make it back to me. I'd be interested to hear if your sd card makes it back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vf171:
I've had a couple folks ask to see a pic of the crack in my screen. Why can't I post directly from my phone?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
I just checked the RMA status now and it finally updated from device not received to "Repairing". I guess this is a good sign as I've seen in other threads for those being charged or denied repairs had a different status.

Still no call from them regarding my microSD :( Said I would get a call 24-48hours from Thursday, I'll give them till afternoon today then I'll call them up and see what they have to say.

You can using the xda app, Sometimes uploads fail, but you can go into settings and change whether to upload the pic to xda or tapatalk's servers.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
Just got my TF back and it's LOADED WITH ICS!!11!1!!!one11!! :P

ok, it's not... but on the bright side, my microSD card is still in it :D

As for the repair, the dock now works and I knew I shouldn't have said anything about the light bleed and case creak.

It does appear they put a new LCD and Digitizer, but now rather than having a couple light bleed spots that were only visible in the dark, there is now one really bright spot in the bottom left. I haven't even viewed it in the dark so don't know if there are more. :(

For the creak, looks like they just put something behind the case where the creak was, but now the rear case is sticking out by a few millimeters. This makes it hard to put the tablet in and out of the dock.

Also they didn't say anything or replace the dented bezel. I think i'm going to take things into my own hands and do what this guy did.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] revjwb32:
glad you got it back ,,,,, time for me to get an RMA mine will not power on so wish me luck now...
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
that sucks. Is your charger dead? Plug it into your pc overnight and see if that wakes it up.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bobsinclair25:
I had messed mine up (crazy story involving encription and installing roms). Anyway, my RMA was to the Texas facility (which I had read horry stories about) I really figured that I would be charged since I rooted and had played with many mods. I think maybe the issue with encryption (I believe I wiped the file with the encryption password then could not get into the system) they could not tell that I had modded it. Anyway, I shipped it on a Thursday, it arrived on a Saturday, showed up as received on Tuesday and I had it back the following Wednesday. No charge and it came back in great shape and running perfectly.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fone_fanatic:
Thats a good turn around time. I shipped mine out last week on monday (jan 30), got there on wednesday (Feb 2) and received it today (feb 9). I guess next time I'm sending something in I'll aim for it to get there on Sat or monday.

I've had no complaints with the Texas facility. My charger went out a month after getting my TF101 and had to send it in. Yeah it pissed me off about their policy where the customer has to pay to mail the item to the repair facility but oh well. A day or two after the tracking said they received it and the rma status was showing it hasn't been received. I called them up and was told I sent it to the wrong address! I was pissed because it's the address they gave me! Turns out the rep had the old address in his head and they had recently moved. The charger was "repaired", although i'm pretty sure they just sent me a new one, and already on it's way back. For some reason the rma status wasn't being updated online.

Got my hands on the Motorola XYBoard dump today and i though i would share some of the things that i have been able to pull out of it.

I have started Deodexing and Zipaligned/Signedthe apk's and there are actually some pretty neat things

Floating Notes is a widget that once tapped creates a panel and a toast that you can move around the screen write notes input text or just doodle. Once called once it can be brought up in any other app. I have only had it for 5 minuites now and its sick

View attachment 880540

There is also a version of SwiftKey that has a form of spell check for hardware Keyboards

Working on motorola email but it conflicts with the stock email app so i will try uninstalling the stock one and see if that fixes anying

I have the Buttons but VRTheme is being a pain so i will upload that later once i get it fixed

I pulled the Bootanim/Wallpapers as well and am working on other apps

good work.. like the floating notes..

got it up and working, once we get a sizable browser going it will be great for doing research and locking in the links you are reading, which is one of the uses I want it for.

Boot animation looks good.. actually prefer it the latest Krakd's at the moment..

for those that want to have a try..

use ES file explorer or Root explorer

copy to /system/media/bootanimation.zip

just rename the other one you have in there to a .bak encase you want to go back to it.
