[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Wow that really sucks man. Sorry to hear that. All these screens cracking. I have a dock and barely dock it anymore cause I'm afraid of it cracking.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjsoviet:
Mine is the C20KAS batch Prime, and compared to my Samsung monitor the colors do look washed out. However, I had to consider that the monitor uses an LED backlight, so that may account for its superior color vibrancy - or at least the focus on color saturation compared to IPS.

My screen is a bit warm, but not as overly warm as the old Prime (B20KAS) I had which had a too yellowish hue. I kind of wanted a more colder temperature (most of the display Primes are like that) but hey, this looks kind of natural.

I think we could probably calibrate the screen, as Nvidia has easily done this to color saturation when you go to Power Saving mode. We just probably have to access the kernel and the GPU drivers to override the default color gamut and then tweak to our liking. Here's hoping the devs would take a look at this. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
Thanks man! It's rather pathetic that we have to think, oh no we can't use the dock, it might crack our screen, sad, just sad.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Nice. Now figure out a way to make the hinge not put stress on the screen. By the way do those rubber get in the way of your palm when typing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] undercover:
Not at all. It was temp solution at first, but I kinda like it now, looks like they are supposed to be there.

Got some on the back of tablet, to stop it from scratching till I get some sort of protector.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] undercover:
Here are the pics .

Regarding latch, I don't think anything can be done tbh. Also, I don't think it stresses the glass, as when you close it, its sort of spring loaded to go to closed position, so if any pressure is applied, its applied on the back of the tablet.

Sent throught the wormhole from my CoinInserted Sensation OG.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Its spring loaded but only when its almost closed at about 5 degrees. Do this. Open it up as much as it will go. Now undock it. Now try closing the hinge by itself and good luck trying to close it with ease. Imagine the pressure this is causing to the bottom of your screen when you close from fully open to almost closed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] undercover:
Ah, I see. I wouldn't worry about it though. It's spread over a fairly big surface.

Regarding screen colours, I finally have one I'm fairly happy with. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
I wouldn't have worried if I hadn't seen all these screen cracking and 99% of them uses the dock. And yes I got a screen finally too that I'm happy with. Thus another reason I'm really worried about breaking it. Don't want to break this one in a million
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
I've decided I'm keeping it, if it breaks I will RMA it and when they say it's CID I will call my credit card company and file a claim. This thing is just too nice for me to give up on it, my wifi is excellent as well as getting satellites and all that fun stuff.

So I'm here to stay:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kidio007:
I love everything about the prime, except the colors on the screen. It is the worst screen out of all my other products. My Psvita has beautiful colors, my psp 3000 has great colors, my laptop screen has beautiful colors and even my cheap desktop monitor is in another league. I have no idea why Asus releases so bad screens in 2012, the transformer 1 also had a bad screen. I compared the prime to the galaxy tab 10.1, and the 10.1 won by far.

I desperately hope that some devs make it so we can calibrate the screen ourselfs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Good idea with CC company as a back up. I'm probably gonna go that route if something happens to mine. BTW do you know how you cracked it? Do you own a dock?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
Thats the thing, it's not a full blown crack. You have to hold it at a certain angle look at the black bezel and I can see 2 hairline lines, kind of arcing . Yes I do have a dock, and no I have no idea how this happened, It could've been that way from day 1. There is a small dent almost directly above the light sensor, like it was opened at the factory and fixed before release. I just noticed that too. I have really good wifi distance and my gps gets birds, it is a C2O model, so newest one.

My first Prime had very washed out colors and a very warm screen (yellowish). This one stacks up with my nook color in terms of saturation and this screen was also 20-30% brighter than my first one. The way I know this is I had them side by side, and it was a huge difference.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
I have a feeling its the dock. Have you visited the cracked screen thread?

Anyway, I'm also considering the Squaretrade warranty for like $63. Thread here. You can add it as long as your within 90 days of purchase. 2 yr warranty and covers damage. And from what I read from there it's transferable so it'll be a good selling point when you decide to sell before the 2 yr is up.

EDIT: It may be actually 30 days according to amazon.com from purchase to qualify adding insurance. But the OP stated 90 days and confirmed by calling them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kidio007:
So they use different screens on the prime, and if you are lucky you get a good one? Or do you think all the screens are the same just that the calibration process makes each screen different from the other? What I want is that the red is redder, the green greener and the blue bluer, stronger colors. It looks very washed out as it is now.

What I fear is that the color intensity already is at 100%, and when some tools are developed to change colors on the prime, it's already at the max. It's probably a bit optimistic to hope for a tool to magically turn up the colors making the screen look beautiful with vibrant colors, huh. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Am I reading this right? Is someone actually requesting Samsung screens for the Prime?

Lol I much prefer my "washed out" Prime to my brother's over-saturated SGS. In some instances it's noticeable that the colors aren't quite right, but not usually; I feel the Prime is fairly accurate in its colors, with the exception of some screens which are indeed too hot or cold, and that we're really just used to over-saturation even amongst our computer screens.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
The difference between Prime screens is either brightness level or white hue. Majority will have yellowish warmer tint while a few will have cooler almost bluish screen. The green, red, blue aren't affected as much.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
I first noticed my weak colors playing games like Whale trail, angry birds, really colorful games oh and netflix.

Netflix looked orangy red, not red at all and my greens were more toward the limey side than grassy side. I don't know about different screens in these but mine were like night and day difference.

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 PM ----------

I know what your saying about over saturation, I went through 6 calibrations on my TV to get natural colors, and this Prime has those colors, thats why I'm hanging onto it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Interesting as I didnt see a major difference in my red, blue, or greens. Just that its brighter, more white.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kidio007:
It just feels like the colors are wrong/bad because it is the screen with the least amount of color out of my iphone, my nintendo DS, 3ds, psvita, tv etc. Seems right that we are used to over-saturation on other screens these days. For all I know the prime has perfect colors, just I used to more color. But when I look at a crazy over-saturated SGS2 screen, I think: WOW what an amazing screen, hehe. But yeah, I get it, will buy from Samsung next time. We all have different preferances. :)

Ready2mosh: Will check if anyone at my school has the prime so I can compare the screens, I too feel like colors on games doesn't seem right. From what you say it seems like maybe some users get primes with worse colors than it should be.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjsoviet:
Samsung tends to have oversaturated colors because of the nature of OLED and PLS panels. IPS tends to be more color accurate, so it doesn't look as vibrant as most other screen types.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Too true.

Don't get me wrong, more often than not I have the same reaction :D and for years I over-saturated my TV's and computers to specifically achieve "fuller" colors, but the Prime and my dual LED monitors have brought me to the light side ;) (pun of course intended).

In my original month, I felt kind of jaded by the Prime's colors. Every time I'd move from my phone (which also stays at the lowest brightness settings, so that doesn't help either lol) or my brother's phone to the Prime, I would get this kind of nagging in my stomach. Like I paid $800 for an inferior product (kind of did, considering QC lol). Now though, I much prefer my Prime. I can use it without being barraged by too much contrast in the pallets and it keeps everything nice and soft.

Like you said, everyone has different preferences, and I really wish these manufacturer's would wise up and give us utilities to calibrate our own screens.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Nathalie0226:
Hi,

I have read all the information pertaining to the rooting of the NT and that is fully understood, however I still have some questions unanswered.

When the SDcard is partionned to 70 mb is the rest of the sd card usable to upload files to? i.e. if I use a 16gb sd card will I be able to use the rest of the card to put files on? If not what is the solution to sideload other files if you have reached the capacity of the NT?

If this was already answered somewhere else, I apologize in advance as I did not see it.

Thank you for your help.

Nathalie
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] binary_aegis:
I believe making the rest usable is possible but it will likely be spotty at best.

The best thing to do is to convert it back to a regular, non-bootable, sdcard. Or if you only have windows, use a smaller expendable card.

There are two reasons for this. First, it's easier to keep them seperate. Second, the nook boots to sd by default so as long as you have a bootable sd card in your device you will have to eject it on bootup and put it back in. That seems like too much of a hassle to me.

Either route I think you will need to have a linux os in order to convert the card back. As far as I could see, windows did not even recognize the rest of my card and didn't have any tools to edit the partition table. GParted on linux however allows you to edit the partition table.

Any route you take will require you to wipe the sd card so be sure to make a backup of anything you want to keep.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lavero.burgos:
It is always good to have a machine with linux distro like ubuntu the most common to use gparted, eather by creating a virtual machine on windows (VMware is very good), using a live CD/DVD of ubuntu (but its a slower), installing it with WUBI which will let you run Ubuntu within your current system (it installs as any other application on Windows and uninstalls same way) or by just installing it directly to a PC, that way you don't miss anything :).

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] benga_mircea:
I tried to update my Xperia Neo, but someone managed to pull out the Usb cable when the phone began to flash. Now i'm facing a bricked phone, imposible to enter in Flash mode or Fastboot mode as I did before(no green led, no blue led, nothing). I pulled out the battery for 1 hour, rom prepared everything, but after I insert the usb cable by holding the back button, instead of flash mode, a "Sony Ericsson" screen apears without the green logo. I cant shut down the phone from the on/off button, cant flash, cant do nothing to get it back to live. When the "Sony Ericsson" screen apears, the pc makes that hardware connecting sound, and pc companion pops out telling me: "phone connected" and shows furter steps...but I can see only the "se" screen, no flashing or updating program can connect my phone no more. Please help me with a solution to be able to flash (repair) phone. I've tried: wotan, flash tool, FlashTool_0.2.9.1_FOTAUnbrick, Octopus suite, Omnius for SE, Se update, PC Companion, Seus, no results (can't connect into Flash mode, the phone cant be seen). I respected all the steps, flashed it succesfull several times. Thank you in advance, and have a great day! Sorry for long post and bad english.

[General Questions and Answers] aarons510:
What about extending, not replacing, android linux?

Shouldn't it be possible to add commands to the Linux that underlies android to give it the functionality of at least some version of full Linux while keeping the android layer on top of it? I'm not a developer, so I don't know what all the technical problems might be, beyond the following:

Some kind of compiler is necessary, but isn't that also needed to create an android ROM anyway?

Since the KF doesn't accept an SD card, space might be a problem, but maybe a USB memory stick (flash drive), an OTG adapter, and perhaps some change to the bootloader to allow the KF to go into USB host mode might work. And the solution would probably be easier if the external memory were used for data and apps, but not for any part of the OS?

Perhaps this discussion belongs under Android Development, either specifically for the KF1 otter or more generally. Maybe there already are such discussions on xda or elsewhere. Guidance from developers and others in the know would be appreciated.

[Droid 2 Global General] loudog3114:
I am following the guide from the cyanogenmod wiki on how to get CM on my droid 2, however I am getting hung up on one step.. all previous steps have worked fine and I am running android 2.2. I am getting stuck on running the rageagainstthecage script.

/data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin

and it appears to run. I then lose my adb connection. Upon restarting adb, I am unable to see the device with 'adb devices'. I am able to browse the phone storage, though. The only way to get it to show up with adb again is to reboot the phone. Upon rebooting and doing an 'adb shell' I still have the $ prompt instead of the # prompt. Any ideas?

How many Nandroid backups do you keep "just in case?"

I want to balance safety, but not fill my SD Card with stuff I don't need.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GasGuzz:
Electronics are not infallible. Whatever you have on your card is a copy, from backup(s) on your PC.

I only have 1 copy on a Backup-SD card, usually updated from the last backup. But I have an original backup (and succeeding) version from day 1 on my PC, just in case.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zachcarter:
nandroid backups aren't too critical if you backup the individual apps and settings with something like Titanium Backup. I try to get a nandroid every time I apply a new update or ROM however, and then just keep it until I'm sure I don't want to roll back.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
I will usually keep the last nandroid on device/memory card, and store the rest like mt4g-cm7.1-backup-2012-02-05.7z. For Titanium Backup I keep on device and will periodically make an archive to snap shot off into cold storage with my old nandroids.

How many....is just a matter of how much space I'm willing to allocate. Which is probably 10-40 gigs for now.

Hi folks,

I recently ran into severe battery draining issue when i was playing one of the games and left it on (without exiting) and battery went from 78 to 25% in 3 hours.

I was just wondering if Autokiller Memory Optimizer app comes to the rescue for auto closing open inactive running apps and improve the available free memory.

If any of you have been using this app lately, share your feedback on its performance on SGR.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] akshatsourav:

Hey folks,

Got a small question:

My network (Discoplus via O2) gets displayed as "Willkommen", thats annyoing.

I checked out "Carrier Name Changer" but the result was: "Willkommen - My chosen Text".

Today I read another how-to about changing carrier name, so i created a fitting spn-cfg.xml and pushed it into /system/etc.

See code here:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<spnOverrides>
<spnOverride numeric="26207" spn="O2 Deutschland"/>
</spnOverrides>

I then restarted but the result is the same: "Willkommen O2 Deutschland".

Any idea how to get rid of that crappy welcome and just to have my costumized version of the carrier name?

There must be something alse than spn-cfg.xml which seems to get in conflict with it - seriously guys: shouldn't this be really easy to change? ;)

Thanks a lot.

In addition, this update seems just for Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Note international version. Meanwhile, the operator version of both devices will get update Android 4.0 ICS in different time, like Galaxy Note for AT&T that’s reported to get it on February 19th.

Update Android 4.0 ICS will brings something interested for Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Note. According to the reports, it will improve the functionality and user interface, even though still using Samsung TouchWiz UI. So, be patient to wait Android 4.0 ICS for your Galaxy S II or Galaxy Note.

Hi guys,

Here is my firs app.

It is on the Market: install it from here.

What does this ap do?

It is a browser which isn't really a browser. Browser Toggle just looks the state of the WiFi connections and decides on that which of your browser should be started. You cann select a browser for WiFi and one for non-Wifi or mobile connections.

After install you will have 2 icons in your app launcher. One for settings and one for launching the browser.

It saves mobile bandwith and so money :)

Helps by clearing of the default browser

Helps by setting of the default browser

Dark Holo theme for ICS

Locale for EN, DE, HU

android 2.1 +

How to use it?

Start "Browser Toggle Settings"

Select a browser for mobile connections which uses compression technology to reduce data costs (I suggest Opera mini or mobile)

Select a browser for WiFi connections.

Clear the default browser if any was selected

Select "Browser Toggle" for your default browser

Now if any of your apps tries to start a browser, Browser Toggle will start one of the two browser you selected depending on the WiFi connections state

Screenshots:

Whats new?

v0.7

- release on Market:

v0.6

- ICS compatibility enhancement

v0.5

- GUI improvements

- Internal code redesign

v0.3:

- Second icon in app launcher for launching empty browser

v0.2:

- Initial release
