So I received my Transformer Prime today and am having wifi issues (very poor connection strength). Also, I have a group of very bright pixels on the screen.

I know there is a new Transformer tablet in the works that has significantly better specs...so I'd be best to wait. In the meantime, I found a mint TF101 with docking keyboard for $350. Everything checks out and it seems like a great package for the price. This coupled with ICS arriving in two weeks for the TF101 makes it a reasonable decision to return the defective Prime and get this original TF101 w/keyboard.

Is this a good move? I've never owned the original Transformer and hope that it is plenty fast to play flash content. Anyone care to offer a POV on this decision?

I plan on getting the newer Transformer in Q2 when it's rumored to release.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blickmanic:
i think you should go for it :D!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
I returned my Prime due to the "Unknown Serial Number", and bought the TF101. Although WiFi wasn't bad on my Prime, it is better on my TF101. My TF101 also performs flawlessly, and doesn't have any of the common issues some of the Primes suffer from. I'm happy I "downgraded".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xda-soar:
I am in the same situation. I was contemplating the TF101 vs TF201. It was not an issue of money, though availability became an issue as TF201 stock got sold out. I just wanted a flawless Internet experience so having poor wifi was not good. It seems like Asus is in flux right now so better to get a stable machine. I will see what happens at the end of the year, maybe upgrade to TF700. I originally got a Windows tab which actually was not that bad of a touch experience. I had the Acer W500 which is the same form factor as the prime basically with the 10" tab and keyboard dock. It was also heavy, slow and the battery life was poor (<5 hours). I think the TF101 will be a lot of fun.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pyro_teknic:
try the squeeze trick before returning. takes a couple seconds and ive heard it helps a lot of plagued tf201s. cant find the vid but just squeeze just above the entire top of the screen just enough to cause a little light bleed
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
But that isn't going to help the OP's pixel issue and pixel deformities are annoying as ****.

Just return it and either get the TF101 or wait for the TF700T. Really the TF101 should be much easier to find and much cheaper. You'll have less of a hassle finding it and it's tried and true. It was much too early for them to release the prime so it's not like you're losing something.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Someone09:
Interesting to see that I am not alone on this.

This week I returned my 3rd prime and was very close to say "Screw Asus" and look for a Windows tablet but then I thought why not give the original Transformer a shot. I got it yesterday and have to admit I am really impressed.

Everything works as it should, it has two USB ports instead of one, stereo speakers instead of one, a better hardware keyboard (at least in my opinion), the USB transfer rate seems to be much better, the screen seems to be more responsive and it is much cheaper.

And the funniest thing of em all: I don´t know why but it is even faster than Prime. Of course not in 3D games or stuff like that or 1080p videos etc.

But while doing normal usage, e-mailing, writing, watching videos, browsing etc.

And I havn´t even tried a custom ROM, yet.

Just to make this clear: I am comparing ICS Prime (three actually) to HC original Transformer. Which makes no sense to me.

So, the only few things that are better about the Prime are (in my opinion):

- It looks better

- It "look" better manufactured

- Slightly better battery life

- Slightly better display

- Smaller and lighter

And since I am planning to keep my Transformer only for a few months until the Padfone or the TF700 is out I think this was a really good decision.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blickmanic:
prime is a prototype.. not ready for the public. it tells others that quad core is now possible/.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kmkings311:
Came lookin' for the same question/answer. Have the T201 and has issues like 80% of everyone else. Bluetooth/wifi is a joke on the 201...I love using it for remote access to my Win7 box, but seems that when I'm streaming Spotify, if cuts out and loses connection. And, this is upstairs from my router 15 feet a way.

I guess it's time to research the h*** out of the T101 like I did the 201. 399 at bestbuy this week...will search for cheaper this week . . .
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ride525:
Me Too...Prime's WiFi WeaK Compared to Other Tablets

Thank you OP and other posters.

I too am about to return my Prime, and was wondering about the TF101 as a replacement.

I don't do much gaming but decided to buy the Prime since it was supposed to be state-of-the-art. Well, the WiFi just isn't as good as other tablets I've tested, both the Samsung Galaxy 10.1 and HTC Flyer get better WiFi at distance. I've moved my router and changed router settings so I get satisfactory WiFi now at home, but I'm worried about weak WiFi when I travel.

Son (who has the Galaxy 10.1) says I should return the Prime. So, now what to get? The Galaxy 10.1 looks like a very strong performer (especially so in WiFi), but was looking to see if the Original Transformer TF101 would be a good fit for me.

Just wondering what you all think? What will I "lose" if I "downgrade" to the Tf101?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
Some pixels and the buggy software lol

I like Samsung, but galaxy does not have dock and Samsung had minimal support updates. Asus is spot on with their updates, despite the delay on ics for the tf101..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Ride525:
Lose some pixels? What do you mean? Don't the Original Transformer and the Prime have the same resolution?

And what do you mean by buggy software? Is the Original Transformer's software more buggy, than the Primes? In what way? Or do you mean the Prime has more buggy software?

Thanks for any thoughts on my possible "downgrade".
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Someone09:
In short: If you can handle the size/weight and looks of the TF101, you should get it. Just my two cents.

EDIT: And of course the Prime´s camera is better and it behaves better with 3D games etc...at least in theory.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
You are right, my bad they do have the same size screen (I was thinking of the TF700) but the TF Prime has the 'Super IPS' screen and has more brightness (nits), but the ICS update has been bricking people's Primes, it also has crappy wifi/bluetooth as reported..

I say the TF101 is a safer bet, the TF201 is more a prototype as mentioned..not really ready for commercial consumption, more like the icebreaker paving the way for the real cargo ship (TF700)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Someone09:
That is true, too. The question is if it worth it.

I mean if you turn Super IPS mode + highest brightness settings you might easily get a sunburn from it...I don´t need that setting.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
Your only really option is to get the TF101. Everything else is not preferable based on price : features or price : performance ratio.

With the Galaxy Tab 10.1 you're paying too much for what you're getting, that is good hardware and a good design but no or little updates. The hardware is roughly comparable to the TF101 so really all that you're getting out of it is good design, no expansion slot, no/little updates and pay more. Do not want.

The TF101 hits the sweet spot in terms of what you get for how much you pay and you're guaranteed to get ICS and most likely more updates after that. We've been getting updates for HC like what, once or twice every two months? Don't even think you'll see anything close to that with Sammy. Maybe one update a year or two.

The TF201 is good looking and good hardware and it shares the same Asus speed in terms of upgrades but the connectivity and build quality + launch issues leave a lot to be desired. It's confidence shaking, would I want to keep a tablet where the Wi-Fi and GPS are already **** and there's a possibility it might get worse? For $500 and with a successor already on the horizon? Do not want. Really it was a rushed, piece of garbage that's DOA. This is what happened when they decided to rush something rather than do their time with more R&D and releasing it in a more suitable time frame. They should have released the Prime when the TF700T is scheduled to be released (whatever date that is) which in my eyes puts the TF700T as what the Prime should have been, AKA the fix.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Someone09:
Amen to that.

Plus, I hope the same applies to the Padfone.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Spidey01:
The TF101 has much better WiFi than the Prime.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Honestly, the TF101 will likely be better than that successor model, too. The latter has far too high screen resolution, which will lead to problems in some apps, give no advantage at all in most apps (just extra blur from scaling), and cause eye strain in some apps. As an added bonus, it'll reduce battery life and make everything slower.

All so Asus can put a bigger-is-better number on a spec sheet.

They got it right with the TF101, by and large. They're struggling to invent a reason for people to upgrade, and not doing a great job of it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bluecnc:
Being an early adopter of the TF101(my first one was a B40) I had to deal with the pain of owning a new model. Asus has been right on time with their updates and they pay attention to what people post on the internet. It is my opinion that in a few months the Prime will be ready for prime time. But until then I will do my best to wear out my B50 Transformer. It is a great little device totally stock.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mr1ncred1ble:
Pulled my new galaxy s 2 out of my pocket and noticed a thin horizontal white line about 1 inch from the top of the screen, Only on the lock screen. I changed lock screen background and reset the phone but it s still there in the same location (edge to edge). There is no physical damage to the screen and the line is not visible any other time (home screen, pictures, games all fine so far). Anyone else seeing this? Screen shots soon. Maybe normal and i never noticed it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cwalker0906:
This happened to my phone except on the bottom just one line acroos the phone it would be on all screens and then sometimes it wouldn't be there. I warrantied the phone.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mr1ncred1ble:
Can anyone confirm that they do not have a horizontal line under the clock on the stock lock screen like the picture attached?. (not my lock screen btw) after looking around on google it seems this may be normal, but it's hard to find pictures of just the lock screen for the stock rom...thanks for the replies...Not sure how i missed it if it is normal...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xile6:
not normal. Seems like stuck pixel. Since its an led screen each pixel is an led basically. I would return it if you could if not try to run a test. you can find one from the market just dont remember the name.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] shehrammajid:
noooo. he took a screenshot...that means that a picture of the image being sent to screen for display to the user. Screenshots do not show hardware defects. I believe this to be a bug in the system. I would odin back to stock and post back with results. Not factory reset...odin

edit: if it IS a hardware defect, then it is probably the graphics chip that renders the image that is going bad...not the actual screen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mr1ncred1ble:
Picture i posted is not my screenshot, gound that with google and added the arrow...i can confirm the line is not visible on any other screen just lock..i really just dont recall seeing it before. Used a screen test app and all screens look ok to me...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] shehrammajid:
then it is most probably just a bug. Are you updated to latest Kl1 firmware? If not, you can update through odin without losing your data. If you are on tha latest firmware and dont want to go through the hassle of odining stock again and setting up everything again then i would just not worry about it as its only on the lock screen
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] I'mDan2:

I do believe that's a design element. I have the exact same thing on the lock screen and I have a brand new phone made January 20th.

Yes that's normal. Its suppose to be there. Ive gone through 3 sgs2 and always set up a screen lock and have always noticed it on all 3 phones. Its not a hardware or software issue, its part of the design element for the lockscreen as I'mDan2 also mentioned.

Most roms don't come with a voicemail app.

If you have no 3g, that's a separate problem. Try updating PRL and Profile, if that doesnt work, call sprint and have then reprovision the phone. It will basically re-activate it. Don't mention that you are rooted or running a custom rom.

I may be mistaken, but I've seen people here on xda mention that you should be unrooted to activate the phone. I would at least flash a ROM that allows EPST and updating of the profile. Again, I'm no authority.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
I'm guessing that they made you do a hands-free provisioning. Let's try this.

Look up MiseryInMotion's Barebones, thread. Find the download link in the OP for the odex one and download. Don't extract or anything

When the download is finished, mount as MS again. Transfer to your phone.

Transfer done? Unmount and navigate to the Wipe menu.

Wipe everything except for SD card. Twice. Believe me. Do it every time you flash a ROM.

Navigate to "Flash zip from sdcard" and find the Barebones .zip. Select with power button.

You are now flashing your first custom ROM, congratulations!

Let it sit there until it finishes. Then get back to the main menu and "Reboot system now".

Let your phone sit for a couple minutes. Skip sign-in. Reboot.

First, go to Settings - System Updates - and update PRL.Once that finishes, reboot.

Go to Market and get MSL Reader. Open the app. If it asks for "Superuser Privileges" then accept. It will tell you a 6-digit code. This code is unique to your phone. Write it down, but you can always get it again.

Go to Phone (Dial ##3282#, Choose edit mode) and enter your MSL code

select Data Profile

Hit the menu button and choose restore.

Just sit there, your phone should reboot. If it doesn't, then hold the power button and reboot.

Your phone should do "Hands-Free Provision". Once it says your phone has been provisioned, hit "Okay".

Once it starts to check for PRL update, hit cancel.

Turn on 4G, give it time to turn on (it doesn't need to connect)

Go to Phone (Dial ##3282#, Choose edit mode) and enter your MSL code. Select Advanced, scroll down to RTSP Proxy Port and HTTP PD Proxy Port. Click on them, set them to 0 (zero).

Set RTSP Proxy Address and HTTP PD Proxy Address to 0.0.0.0

Go back to the main menu of EPST and select Wimax

Find EntryRX and click on it

Change value from -89 to -110. Hit "Okay"

Hit the menu button and "Commit Changes" or "Commit Modifications". Your phone will reboot.

Go to Settings - System Updates - and Update Profile.

Once it finishes, reboot
