Ugh... if I take off wpa2 I can't get wireless n speeds so my speed test goes down to 23mbs which is a waste of my service (35/35) so I'm not sure what to do. I can't even stream video to my TV which is one of the biggest things we do with the tablet.

I found out that you can disable encryption but its ass backwards. I have to switch to wep then turn off wep. Seems like its made so its really hard to turn off lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
Typo?

Don't you mean

TKIP

?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] excelx:
had the same problem connecting to a dlink router but then i changed it to...

Security Mode : wpa2

Cipher Type : aes

PSK / EAP : psk

everything running perfect

try wpa2 cypher type auto
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] familyhousing:
Firstly, hiding your SSID does not add much security. It will stop any opportunistic neighbours from connecting, but any IT brain can find your SSID in a flash (and intercept all your non-encrypted traffic). WEP is also useless, it takes 2 minutes for someone with a Linux laptop to work out your passphrase with the right tools.

WPA2 should not slow speeds significantly. You should always use WPA2/PSK for personal use. You can always try WPA too as that is just as secure as WPA2. If the speed is not adequate, check that no neighbours are on the same or adjacent channels (using android WiFi analyzer). If you have the router option try 40MHz channels for higher speeds. My Prime works fine on WPA2/PSK.

Lastly, try setting a static IP address. Honeycomb 3.2 had issues with picking up DHCP addresses in some cases (that caused frequent connection drops). I thought it had been fixed in ICS but worth a try.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Well I now know that it is not the security as the same thing happens when I use wep or unsecured. It happens on two different access points. Weird thing is when it works it just a tad bit slower than my laptop (not a bad thing) but it can not hold a stable connection. I will try a new one on Monday. Decided just to order a brand new one and take this one back.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Unless anyone has other suggestions.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GernBlanston:
While we're on the subject , anyone with a wireless router should be checking that Wifi Protected Setup is disabled. Google WPS vulnerability and read how it affects your router. Some routers will report it off while leaving the interface enabled, leaving you vulnerable to a relatively easy brute force attack. On most wireless routers made after 06, this "feature " is enabled by default.

Oh, and to the guy running with security disabled, where do you live? I wanna download some child pornography and score a few account passwords...just looking for a friendly, open wifi connection, just like yours.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
I live in a neighborhood that has all old people in it lol. I have wpa2 enabled but I tried open as a troubleshooting method. Previously I hid my ssid.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] excelx:
My Internet Connection is Dynamic Ip DHCP

I go to Network Settings and uncheck DNS Relay and my prime wifi connects without a problem ( wpa2+aes )
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] familyhousing:
This sounds familiar. As I mentioned earlier, Honeycomb 3.2 had an issue where it frequently dropped the connection if the dhcp lease was indefinite. I experienced it with the HTC Flyer when it received honeycomb. It mainly affected use with Belkin routers. Did you upgrade to ICS or are you still on honeycomb? Please try a static ip configuration:

- You will need to set a free ip address in your range (likely something like 192.168.1.123),

-set your default gateway as your router's ip address,

- set your dns gateway 1 to whatever your isp dictates (or you can point to your router as a relay or use 8.8.8.8 for google dns),

- set the network prefix (subnet mask)to 24 (bit)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Thanks for the help. I did a factory reset and it is working better so far. Its just weird i didnt have this problem with the other primes i had. If dhcp doesnt work after more testing today i will go to static ip.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Oddly enough been running 24 hours straight and streamed several episodes of. 30 rock to my ps3. Not sure why but a factory reset seems to have fixed my dropout issues (knock on wood).

Thanks for all the help and suggestions guys. I now know a little bit more about wireless networking in the process!

Mint just updated their app for Honeycomb Tablets ( https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mint ) today.

I installed it. However, I'm not seeing access to any of the new features. Are Flyer / Evo View owners locked out of the tablet features for some reason? :confused:
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] travelfeet:
I agree, just installed it after hearing that it had been updated for tablets...It looks the same as on my phone, doesn't even display in landscape... I haven't updated the app on my phone in months and it is version 1.17.361. The newly installed app on my view is the same. I don't remember where I read that the mint app had been updated for tablets, but I bet it was based on a press release that was premature.

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 AM ----------

I just researched a bit more and there do seem to be examples and screen shots of new features/reviews so an updated app does exist. I just sent the developer an email explaining the issue. I'll post any response I get (beyond the automated response which I already received)
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
Thank you. It is good to know it's not just me. Thanks for contacting support.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] travelfeet:
Not surprisingly Mint support wasn't very helpful (though they did reply within 24 hours for what that's worth) Below is the full response I received:

"Dear Andrew,

Thank you for contacting Mint.com.

For Android, there are two separate apps for phone and tablet. Our phone app supports OS Gingerbread and up and the tablet app supports OS Honeycomb and up.

Please confirm your OS version. Have a good day!

Thank you,

Anne B.

Mint.com"

*sigh*
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
What the heck? That makes no sense.

When I search for Mint in the Android Market, even on the website (not on my Flyer), only one app shows up...?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Sunsparc:
Only version I see is the phone version also, on my View.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] travelfeet:
Got another reply from Mint support...

So here is the second reply (after I advised that support reread my email in my reply to them). I copied my original email below for reference. Support is still not understanding the real issue, which has to be related to aspect ratio and or pixel density (not screen size). but regardless its a no go. I am tempted to try getting the apk and side-loading just to see how it looks.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for getting back. I apologize for my previous response.

Unfortunately, your device specification is not compatible on the Table app. The app requires an 8.9" or larger screen. The Mint Android tablet app is compatible with Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) and an XL Screen Size 8.9” or larger.

Regards,

Your comment:

I have a recently acquired HTC View 7" tablet that has been updated to ANdroid v 3.2.1. I just installed the Mint app (which I have been using on my android phone for a long time) The android market recognizes my view as a honeycomb device, but I the version of the app that installed is the same as is running on my phone (1.17.361). Is there a newer version that should have installed with the tablet optimized layout? Any idea why I do not see the new features? I know of at least on other user with the same issue (posted on XDA flyer/view forums) Let me know if I can provide any additional info that might assist your addressing this issue. Thank you

Andrew Cooper
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
Do it. We got your back. Lol
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
The 8.9" screen thing is BS.

How would one go about getting the tablet app and side-loading it?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Sunsparc:
Find someone with a rooted 8.9"+ tablet and pull the apk file for it.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] abhaxus:
Could be that they coded it for 1280x800 tablets...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
Anyone have access to someone that owns a rooted 8.9" tablet?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lanwarrior:
FYI, I am having the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus:

ANY Android app that have a tablet-optimized version in a single app (no 2 separate versions) will not show the tablet version when installed in my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus.

I tested this with most popular tablet-optimized apps, such as Mint and TripAdvisor and same problem. HOWEVER, in my friend's ASUS Transformer tablet, it work just fine.

I believe this have issue with the screen resolution, since my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus is 1024 x 600, and these apps does not recognise these resolutions and hence, just defaulted to the "phone" mode, judging by the response from Mint.

This is just a piss-poor planning on the Android OS design...
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] Paul22000:
Ah, interesting. That's lame. Is there no way to force it? Perhaps with a pixel density changer?
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
It would be nice if I could get any version of Mint to work. It won't let me log into any of my accounts. Pageonce logs in with no problem.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] casmi:
Looks like the app has been updated and now has the tablet interface for 7" tablets.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] GrandAdmiral:
So has anyone seen a difference with the updated app? I haven't at all.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] lanwarrior:
I just updated the Mint app and finally it shows up properly as a "Tablet" app.

I think we are lucky that Mint was created by Intuit, a large company, so they probably notice the app is not working properly in non 10.1" tablet. I think this is more of the Android fragmentation issue and how apps are developed in Android.

I just started developing Android app and I have a hard time making sure the graphics in my app is showing up properly in different resolutions and dpi.
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SnakeGS:
Hello

I'm new to the scene, yet i learn fast.

I searched many times this issue if it was custom rom related, but without concrete answer, and i can't post in development forum, so here goes.

Installed all correctly with CM 7.2 and latest patch from phiexz, with a2sd working correctly.

My problem is that certain apps, become stuck in starting download in market.

I can download google maps, gmail, handcent, dolphin, etc... but for example, i can't download handcent portuguese language pack, spirit fm, x construct...

I tried many times reinstalling the rom, the updates, gapps, wiping data, dalvik cache. I tried clearing the market and download manager cache/data, with no avail.

Still those particular apps refuse to be downloaded. After i press install, the bar shows up and says "downloading", and doesn't develop from there.

Any possible solution?

Thanks in advance

Hi guys

Something quite interesting, humorous, funny yet annoying is going on with my phone.

When my phone is plugged into the laptop, or any computer/device, the USB popup doesn't present itself and the phone has idea it is plugged into anything and just charges like it's plugged into the mains. However, when plugged into the mains charger, the USB notification pops up and the phone actually thinks it's plugged into some device like a windows machine. Weird huh?

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I thought you couldn't upgrade an Airwave but long story short I went to sprint to buy another phone and they wouldn't sell me one off contract due to store policy. But he said my Airwave had an upgrade and if I order the phone he would upgrade it without me changing phone numbers.
[HTC EVO 3D] twiztidninja:
is it a corprate store because if so that doesnt sound right they get payed commision for selling contracts and he might have been trying to swindle you
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
You can't upgrade an airave line. Since they have to give you a phone number to give you the device, yes it does show up on your account as another line. However, any rep with 1/10th of a percent of a brain will realize that it's an airave line, and thus cannot be used to upgrade a phone.

If they do upgrade your airave line, sprint will find out about it, and charge you the full amount of the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] james873:
No it wasnt corporate store. I ordered the phone said it would be there in about 3 days. He said they don't do it often but sometimes there are exceptions.

​

** PLEASE BE AWARE! THIS SCRIPT IS FOR "T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II" WILL ALSO WORK ON "AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket" ONLY! IF YOU FLASH THIS ON ANY OTHER DEVICE YOU MIGHT HAVE A VERY EXPENSIVE PAPER WEIGHT! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! PLEASE CONTACT ME FIRST IF ANY OTHER QUESTIONS **​

:: DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE ::​

:: DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE ::

..A DARKSIDE DEVELOPMENT..​

This is a small script i threw together a while back. I have incorporated in many of my ROMS, usually runs with a installation flag '-wipe'. The script does exactly as the title explains. It is SUPER.WIPE that does the most thorough wipe possible. This exceeds anything that CWM is capable of from the menu options. This will format and erase EVERYTHING on your /system, /data, /cache partions with EXT4 file system. It WILL NOT wipe SD CARD or EMMC... After it is complete with format and earse, it will align all disks partitions properly. This is a great tool to flash right before installing any new ROM on your device. No need to worry if you have wiped properly. Let the script do it for you! ENJOY! :D​

Instructions on using DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE:

* WILL NOT WIPE SD CARD OR EMMC *

IMMEDIATELY BEFORE FLASHING ROM OF YOU CHOICE, DO THE FOLLOWING...

1. Place on ROOT of your SD card.

2. Boot into Recovery Mode

3. Do a NAND BACKUP!!!

4. Flash DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE

5. Stay inside recovery

6. Flash desired ROM.

7. After flashing is complete, Reboot...

8. Done!

"so that is the reason for the darkside.cache.wipe... because you cant wipe the cache in recovery... recovery as in CWM right? except through script like in your Darkside.cache.wipe?" (Quote from @Rushing)

ONLY USE THIS IF YOU NEED TO WIPE CACHE'S OR FIX PERMISSIONS IN CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY. THIS IS TO BE FLASHED IN RECOVERY! This replaces the need for using the broken built in CWM recovery functions. The DARKSIDE.CACHE.WIPE script will wipe both the /cache partition and the dalvik cache. After its has completed the wipe, it will then fix permissions (the correct way). This should hopefully fix that damn ICS reboot hang issue once and for all. ​
