[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
Hi

I was so excited to get my Prime today. My folks got it in the Netherlands during a business trip. I am in South Africa.

Update: For those saying I should ship it back. I got a quote. 5 days delivery, 1 way cost R3000 (around 350 euros).

Update 2 (29/01/12): Got the receipt from my parents. It appears the reseller does have a local presence, so I will try go via them first.

Update 3 (30/01/12): The reseller also did not offer any viable solutions. Tablet now booked in ASUS Service Centre for repair. No ETA given.

Update 4 (07/02/12): Repair center still waiting on ETA for parts delivery. They are also trying to get a replacement, but it seems they cannot find stock. Asus Support failing to respond to any emails I sent them.

Update 5 (09/02/12): Still no word from either LetMeRepair (repair center) or ASUS. Status remains the same. Posted a message on the ASUS FB wall. Hopefully someone will answer me.

For the record: https://www.facebook.com/ASUS/posts/243226189093666

Update 6 (9/02/12): After getting no response from ASUS yet again. I contacted the escalations manager at the repair center. She was very helpful and get the vendor manager of ASUS (I guess this one the top ASUS person in South Africa, as they dont seem to physically exist otherwise). The vendor manager told me ASUS is still waiting on parts, and still cannot give an ETA on when these part will be available. I told him I found this shocking as they could not even found out a lead time for spare parts like pretty much any electronic supplier does. He told me that he will contact me the next morning with an answer or possible alternative solutions. (Side note: this RMA out of stock issue is becoming more prevalent now and have seen the same story a few times on this site now)

Final Update (16/02/12): After lots of *****ing and chasing ASUS, I finally got my unit back. They used an LCD from another returned unit. 1 dead pixel in top right corner, but otherwise fine. Minimal lightbleed.

So turning on, I got this:

:mad::mad::mad:

Honestly, I am shocked at the standard of quality control of ASUS. How can this happen?

Nevermind the fact, they will likely only repair this, seeing as I am not able to fly back to the Netherlands to get it replaced. And that it will likely take months for them to fix it...

I will take it into the ASUS service centre to see how screwed I am...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
That really sux. Did you try a reboot or factory reset to see if it gets cleared? Does your device have any signs of being dropped or any damage of any kind?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cortical:
Seriously - is it really necessary to open a thread for every damaged Prime? Return it, get your money back.

Fin.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
Damaged? Nothing is damaged, it is just broken.

Dont you have better things to do?

Edit: Feel free to pay me 2000 euro for a return flight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
No damaged whatsoever. :(

Applying light pressure at the bottom of the line on the bezel area makes some vertical lines go pink.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bex:
Why 2000 euro for return flight? Package it up and overnight it back to the store and get a replacement overnighted back to you at max 5% of that 2000 euro plane ticket!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theeggman:
Okay, I understand there are a certain amount of problematic Primes out there. I understand Asus support can be a painful process to go through as well. However, I am starting to get annoyed with everybody and their brother making a new thread when they get a defective Prime. Simply return your Prime to the store if you're not satisfied with it and be done with it.

Thank you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
I disagree, statistical information about a brand new but flawed product is important for potential consumer information. if you're not concern just move on please.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cortical:
No no, it needed to be something unrealistic ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
aa

Given less the fact that probably less than 1% of TP purchasers know this site exists, it gives a good rough measure of the failure rates. Remember the launch version of the 360? 25% failure rates are about 5x's industry standards for electronics failure rates. Seems we're looking at some similar situation with the Prime. If you don't like the thread, skip it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hairdewx:
Trying to estimate failure ratios and rates from a message board is not scientific and doesn't even follow standard methods of gathering statistics...

The only way to even estimate the real failure rate if is ASUS releases their numbers, since they have the raw data.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Zerospunk:
This 1000x

This isn't a support forum. you got a defective product. Talk to your retailer and get a replacement. Why make a thread about it? What are you expecting anyone to say other then "sucks, get a new one or a refund"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
If only it was... 5 day delivery, around 350 euro via TNT.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yourdroidsir:
damaged prime

this happened with my tf201. If i held/applied pressure to bottom right of tablet, wholre screen would fade white, almost like someone put a 75%opacity paper over top of the screen. it got returned and Bestbuy shipped out new one:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
RMA has been completed. First post updated.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Evo_Shift:
Wow, they didn't even test it? Or else it happened in transit which I doubt.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
One will never know. Perhaps it was one of those real flukes.

All good now, and me happy :)

So I got my ffc yesterday which is a rev2. I installed it and it is looking sweet. However when I try to use it I just get a black screen and the camera app crashes. Searched the forums and the internet and couldn't find the answer. Do I need to download a driver or something?

Thanks guys!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trailblazerz11:
Its working for me on cm9 right now and used to when I was on passion Shouldn't have to flash anything since the rooms based on i9000 build which has ffc.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] closedcircuit:
The FFC is working for me on Passion V11.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swehes:
So I have tested the camera. The rear camera works wonderful but as soon as I switch it to the front it goes black and it shows scn in the top corner. Does anyone else have this issue with their FFC mod? I have tried it on Passion and CM9.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trailblazerz11:
I don't think its a software issue. Open up phone and try again I guess.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swehes:
So I tried it again and I agree with you. I looked at the camera again and they had soldered a copper wire from one little circle to one of the connector pins where the camera connects to the phone. And during the process it goes over 4 or so other of the little circles. I wrote into the company I bought the camera from and sent them pictures of it and I will ask them to send me a new one.

Thanks guys for helping me out! :)

I found several fox news apps, the ebay app and others on the market. Do you have the market installed?

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] darrencp22:
Unfortunately I don't. I would prefer to sideload rather than rooting.
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] fwp:
You don't need to (permanently) root to install marketplace. You can use BurritoRoot to temporary root (which works until you reboot) and install the framework and marketplace apks. Then you reboot unrooted and it all works perfectly.

After the last patch (6.2.2), BurritoRoot apk no longer works but you can use ADB to push BurritoRoot2.bin and run it from shell to get the same result.

As far as I am aware, you can't side load the google apps. But FYI after installing the google market and supporting apks, I have had zero issues with DRM or anything else.

I just installed Cleanrom 1.6 yesterday before I got the new OTA update. If i wanted to install the update is there a easy way to do it without a factory reset or installing 1.6 again, I'm assuming that I have the new mainver since I have 1.6version of clean rom.

769 votes :eek: just one question, we don't need first to have cm7 running stable in order to get MIUI? i always had the idea that MIUI runs only on devices that already have CM? if they are completely independent then is a good thing this pool that OB is leading :D

sorry for the English
[LG Optimus Black] Samoht59:
LOL.

ask Huexxx. Maybe he know the answer to your ask.
[LG Optimus Black] dcop7:
Even if this is true (I think it is), this makes this development of a stable CM7 followed by more DEVs, more people, people than can contribute for this goal! Maybe MIUI's devs will help in CM7 along with arcee... Maybe our OB will be official supported by CM team if more and more people is interested in this :D

Just hope for the best... And keep voting!

There is a controversy in the commentaries about "why so much OB vote? Its not fair" by some (jealous?)folks.

Anyway, the guy who did the poll decided that it's fair and that he will send the results anyway to Xiaomi from MIUI. Another important thing is there is no dead line for this poll right now, and it will still running until the guy from MIUI France decided it's over.

Voted too, but HTC Sensation is a dangereous outsider ^^

don't get me wrong, these are gr8 ROMs but i HATE it when the popcorn vendor round the corner bugs me almost twice a week to reflash a different ROM on his wildfire & i have to wait for months for a single ROM:mad: i just feel neglected :(

-edit-

just one more thing, whats so very special about the MIUI Rom? Cant we get the same result using one of those Launchers?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OsTMUcGnfg

Or are there any other special things about it, I dont know?
[LG Optimus Black] Sgt-Hartley:
The thing with miui... you either love it or hate it. Depending on device its a very smooth rom, heavily based on cm7, the potential of the themes are great on personal opinion offers alot more than the cm7 theme engine. Such as the launcher you can get very simlar ones for cm7 but they just are not as smooth with transition animations as the miui one. It also get's updates every friday sort of like the nightly's for cm7

Its rumored that miui will be out for p970 this friday 3rd, source miui.com but that is only a rumor
[LG Optimus Black] Thomaswoon:
Voted again. When is this going to end?
[LG Optimus Black] skapez:

[LG Optimus Black] lesp4ul:
I love to theme so i love MIUI too, significant features that stock rom doesn't have, and takes the advantages from CM. Also the theme is well implemented. Now I am using Galnet MIUI for my SGS2 and it runs very smooth and stable :)

Anyway, one chinese forum says MIUI for OB will come at spring... i don't believe it haha.
[LG Optimus Black] Sgt-Hartley:
Galnet is my fav version of miui XD and i want SGS2 Badly lol

On miui forum (Chinese) they are all rumoring it will be this friday time will tell, i tried to port it but netd was stuck in continous crash on startup could get the bootscreen with it commented out of init.rc but thats no good as wifi and bt etc wouldnt work so it was pointless :P
[LG Optimus Black] dflt:
"So the device must have official Rom v4" and that's the problem.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
I think they still make 2.3 versions of miui, but i think they simply go to isc, because of its capabilities and overall smoothness, which also speeds up their rom.

Hope it ll come soon, so i can flash another rom to my device :-D i love flashing new stuff :-D
[LG Optimus Black] Sgt-Hartley:
They are still making gb miui, the v4 ics version will only be on handsets with a stable ifs release like official update or a sort of stable cm9.
