Excellent work Danny.

I was going to do this myself when I found a bit of spare time.

I'll add my support to this topic.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Col.Kernel:
What Beards said! Thanks indeed.

Because you can lock on to some satellites while stationary and connected to WiFi means nothing.

As a personal preference, I can't stand GPS Test. It looks like it was drawn with crayons to me.

Good alternatives to GPS Test are GPS Status and GPS Essentials, though you'll have to build the screen you want in Essentials.

To properly test the GPS, and someone correct me if my memory is bad here;

Bring up your Prime with WiFi and GPS on.

Turn off WiFi and reboot your Prime

See how long it takes to get a lock on 4 or more satellites, it shouldn't be long even with a "bad" GPS

Hop in your vehicle and go for a drive/ride while having the non-driver keep an eye on the number of satellites tracked
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Cheers !

Thought it was needed :)

I'm sure we'll find more info to pack in this thread

Edited the GPS section slightly.

GPS Test seems to be the standard app, and for a noob its quick and easy to see a status. i'll add the links in for the alternative apps though cheers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hoopsta1423:
Thanks for taking the time to make this post Danny! I bet all the noobish threads(mine included =D ) finally pushed you to do it

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vitalero:
Thank you very much!

Can you please add some information on rooting if needed and backup if needed also and how to make it and what is it realy for[sorry for the noob questions].

About Gyroscope is it only to try rotate it ? thats it ?

Excellent thread.

I would also test for the Vulcan Nerve Pinch : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1473272

And I would also encourage new owners to run benchmarks on their systems brand new and after each update (and maybe report their numbers back to xda-dev forum): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22060756&postcount=574

Good thread, thanks!

Quick question - is the gyro problem either it will be completely dead or partly? i think mine is ok, tried glowball seemed to be ok, and auto rotate works but maybe a bit sluggish, maybe its just set like that?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
For me it didnt work at all. I havnt seen any other reports of the gyroscope not working properly except from people recieving the newer batch.

Auto rotate is always a little sluggish to be fair, never was as fast as the ipad.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Good idea!

Haptic feedback on mine seemed to be fine, wasnt noisy and feedback was fine, but i've seen the reports of issues with it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 729927852:
I would also like to add some things too

-Camera lens clarity, all 3 of my Primes that I bought had a fogged lens on the inside/specs or air bubbles in them

-LED screen alignment, my third Prime had a crooked display

Though these are just aesthetics, I still returned mine. I want a perfect Prime for the money I'm spending.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Here is my Prime with backlight bleeding..

Specially the right seems to have a lot of bleed, that is not only with mine but with a lot of people.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PrimeTimeBro:
I agree but since this seems to also be an instructional thread telling newbies how they should go about remedying the issues you might run into the ICS lockup should be included.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Left side is no big deal. Right side does have alot. But most bleeds, unless major ones, aren't even noticeable during regular use. Only noticeable on bootups or by people who sit in a dark room with a black wallpaper staring at it looking for bleeds..lmfao

They won't repair for minor bleeding or one or two dead pixels. I think you have to have more than 5-6 dead pixels in one area to qualify for warranty. Its in the warranty info. Ipad2 at launch suffered alot worse from bleeds than pictures posted here from various people. So this is a common issue throughout all devices with displays like these.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Sure, but I don't accept it for a device where I pay €599 for. I have send it back and they didn't have any stock so I decided to take my money back, now waiting for the iPad3/TF700.

Oh, and it was very noticeable during movie's, so don't say "only when you look at a black wallpaper".
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Screwedupsmitty:
I'd like to disagree, this is a checklist for new owners to make sure they have the best device. I also disagree with recommendations on doing the vulcan nerve pinch. IMO this thread is a checklist for new owners to go through to make sure they are not experiencing any of the problems that ~20% of owners at the moment are experiencing. Not a fix it thread, and not an organized thread to lead you to to other posts.

Good job OP!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Exactly what i was thinking ... I dont want it to be a fixit thread, more of a checklist, as per title

I'll add more in a bit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PuroKaibil:
Mine is on the fence with GPS reception. Sometimes it sees up to six satellites sometimes none.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jinx405:
Thanks to the OP for this thread! This checklist makes it an easier reference than the other thread...

My 3rd Prime is alright so far (minor backlight bleed) BUT I have not upgraded to ICS yet. Half of me wants to upgrade to avoid missing out on the Returns period, but the other half wants to wait for the update from Gary Keys/Asus. So I’ve decided to wait til the end of this week :)

Is there a thread in the Dev section showing other’s benchmark results? I haven’t seen it (tried searching and still cant find it) and am only referencing reviews online...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Col.Kernel:
If you're not moving with WiFi off you're not testing the GPS. Might as well delete that section if you're not going to include that part of the instructions.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
I'm from the UK and received my Transformer Prime this Monday, It's serial number starts with: BCOKAS and it's only problems what I can find are slight light bleed and broken GPS...

I'm wondering what do I do to get a newer batch model... I've already installed loads of apps and set it up and updated to ICS...

I really don't want to be stuck with a semi-faulty TFP if they won't do an exchange :/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
If there aren't any deal braking issues then nothing to worry about. What you listed is nothing. They took GPS off the spec list so you can't even ccall them to ask to fix GPS. As they already told another member same thing. Minor bleed, they won't even entertain that claim as its in warranty info about that. I have serial as you but mines from 12/22 n works great. Don't let all these threads scare you..lmfao.

You want some reassurance, check out The Positive Transformer thread in my sig ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Jumping in the car with it sat on the seat isnt great instruction though, theres a metal roof above. It would really have to be on the dashboard in full view of the sky to get acceptible results.

It does need expanding on a bit though ..

Haptic feedback section added .. suggestions welcome
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Beards:
This is what annoys me the most..... Just because something has been removed does not make it a fitting excuse.

Originally the Prime WAS a GPS device and had it not been for the fact GPS performs poorly to the majority of Prime users Asus would would have kept it and publically praise it's use in the GPS field.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Laurentwb:
Hello,

I'm not sure I know what to think about the Wifi.

Although, I did not face any situation where it became limiting. However, I have to admit that it is behaving a strange way. Here is what I did :

- Install Speedtest and Wifi analyser

- Move around the house and test the wifi with the 2 softs

- Wifi analyser : Not big concerns. The signal goes down when further from the router but it looks quiet normal

Speedtest : Download speed drops fast. However, I can not say that this is a real problem, raising the fact that I should try to move even further.

Speedtest : Upload speed is always maintained at the expected value. It is very strange because this means that I can face results where the download speed shown by Speedtest is significantly lower than the upload speed.

The question : How can the download speed go down and not the upload speed ? Is it the tablet ? Or something else (Speedtest ? or difference between the 2 antennas ?) ? I have no idea.

Finally : what is the link with this discussion ? It is in fact that I don't know if what see with Wifi is a real weakness of the tablet or is it an artefact ? What do we have to precisely say about Wifi on this checklist ?

Regards.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] EarlZ:
I dont have the Asus Prime yet still debating between getting it or the Tab7.7 but for the price, Im expecting no backlight bleed but it seems to be common. I will mostly use this with a black background or a lot of black and white pictures in a dark room, I will not stare and look for the bleed but its gonna be annoying for it to show up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 05GT:
Thanks for Wifi Analyser... My Prime displays the same signal as my GS2 and Nexus in all rooms of the house. Gonna test out my GPS here soon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Screwedupsmitty:
signal isn't the issue, its the throughput speed. Wifi-analyzer is good for finding a clear channel though. Speedtest or file transfer will test your speeds
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 05GT:
Thanks for explaining the difference. I'm gonna check that as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Thanks! I was so excited about getting my Prime I almost forgot so many were defective.

I've had it all of two hours at work, so haven't been able to properly test out my GPS (0 seen 0 locked inside...), but so far it's spectacular!

I have a C1... serial, running Honeycomb. AND I GOT A DUCK! Lol haptic really does sound like a duck, but I think I can live with it haha
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
Exactly .. but if your in the UK (and we are) Asus have claimed that we can get a full refund if were not satisfied with the GPS/Wifi performance ...

I think that it might be a good excuse when something else comes along, i may suddenly require GPS and deem it to be unacceptible in a few months.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Pubnum:
They only did that because UK has laws against releasing crappy merchandise, forcing the manufacturer to allow for refunds or extended warranties.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I have tons of black backgrounds n have no issue with it. Not all have back light bleed n if they do its very minimal. Most of the time its not even noticeable at all during any kind of use. Our limited backlight bleed is nothing. You want to see horrible backlight bleed, check out the ipad2..lmfao now what they had was an official case of bleeding like a mofo. What some people showed pics of is nothing. Asus warranty won't even cover that if its not to a certain extent. Just like dead pixels. You can't make a claim on warranty for anything less than like 5-6 dead pixels in one area. Its just a known with these type of screens that some may have slight bleeds or dead pixels. Same with big screen t.v.. monitors, phones, etc..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
At OP, perhaps add to topic, 'RMA return checklist'.

Also add to check for warping and delamination as reported by a few users.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Techie2012:
Any thoughts on if one should wait for the initial battery charge before running the checklist? Or this could be done before the initial charge without compromising the battery lifetime?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Danny-B-:
You can still use the tablet during the initial 8 hr charge period so yeah its fine to run through the list so long as its still charging. (bar taking it outside to test GPS of course)

CM7.2 has all ICS transitions included - if you want to use CM7.2 use it with transitions or use 7.0/7.1... maybe a developer for P500 can code a settings option where this

can be disabled by the user.

If you are wanting to install a new rom just skip the activation. Take cyanogenmod for example when the activation screen comes up with the android on it, press the four corners around the screen and it will skip activation. I think the skip is pretty standard across rom but I'm not 100% on that. It does work on Cyanogenmod though.
