[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 3rdamention:
That is absolutely awful! You know what? You are not the first person with this experience. Someone else posted that they had issues, sent it to Asus, they said they "Couldn't reproduce the problem" and simply returned it without fixing a thing.

I would hope that maybe Gary Key could contact you, I would PM here on these forums. He appears to be the only person at Asus getting anything done.

People can defend Asus all they want, but this is ridiculous. Just like my experience. You tell them the problem, you explain it to them, and they DO NOT FREAKING LISTEN TO US!

You told them there was Lightbleed and they say they couldn't find it? You have AWFUL lightbleed.

I told Asus I had the Serial Number Unknown, explained it in detail, then 18 DAYS LATER, they explain to me how to update my Prime OTA or manually!

I explained to them BEFORE THEY EVER RESPONDED that Manually updating on the website will not fix the Serial Number Unknown and that OTA Updates are impossible on Primes with Serial Number Unknown. What do they tell me? How to update manually and how to update OTA.

Right now, Asus Customer Service is a joke.

Did you have to pay to send them your tablet? If you paid via credit card for the shipping, I would challenge that charge.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] David522d:
Damm dude i feel your pain, I'd call and explain your not a beta tester. You should be rewarded with something after going though all that trouble.

Hope you get a good prime!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] LunaWizard:
your luck just BLOWS dude:rolleyes: ASUS is not for YOU lmaoo:p i got it and never got NOOO problems(knocks on wood) im loving it :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
Good for you, but you act like he is the only one. Their are many, many problems with back light bleeding on the original TF101, and it is exactly the same on the TF201. I don't get why Asus hasn't worked this out by now, it is really getting ridiculous. Apple had the same issue in the beginning with their iPad 2, and they immediately stopped their contract with LG (for some time?) and replaced all the bad iPad's with the ones with the good Samsung display.

Asus on the other hand just keeps proceeding with these crappy displays and even denies the problem is there. I mean, come on, everyone with a pair of working eyes can see the back light bleeding on this..

BTW: Funny how the idiotic fan boy rates this topic 1 star. Voted 5 stars for it biatch. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] samg77:
In my experience if you are looking for the "perfect" device, you arent going to find it. Maybe just be slightly less picky. Light bleed is only visible on black screens and when it comes down to it, it doesnt really hinder performance, its simply bothering you just because its there. I dont know man, I have been buying ASUS products for 20 years, I have found them to be top notch compared to their competitors. There really is no better option in my opinion. The tiny bit of light bleed I have on my prime is nothing compared to my ipads.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Wow. Gary, is that you?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Anyway, OP, you should try to send it to Asus in TX. I know it's a pain in the ass and will cost you about $40 USD in shipping but at least your 600 Euro tablet will be repaired. If you call Asus in TX I'm guessing they have no idea you're in Europe unless the S/Ns are distinct by country. Give them an address for a hotel in NYC if they ask for a U.S. address. After the tablet's been received tell them you're on assignment in Europe for two months and your U.S. address is no longer valid. Once they receive it in TX fixing it and getting it back to you really becomes their problem. Even if they end up charging you return shipping at least your tablet will be livable.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deacan82:
Wow... your light bleed looks terribly severe. From reading this forum can I ask if most of you who have encountered problem with their TFP have gotten it with a 'Blue' screen cleaning cloth or 'Black' one?

I haven't done a proper survey here but apparently people I've known here with TFP seems to have the Black cleaning cloth including me. What I'm trying to figure out if the badly assembled TFP is confined to a certain source where it was assembled, cos obliviously it's not assembled in one place.

Was just thinking probably this could be highlighted to Asus and they can lock down on whoever or whichever source of outsourced assemblers are messing up with the quality of their product.

Just me two cents :P
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SteveG12543:
I only have a small spot in the top right that's only noticeable upon boot. Came with a black cloth.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PolishPoet:
Same here, no dead pixels, WiFi is on par with iPad and my TBolt. Only thing lacking is GPS. It is truly amazing how varied these things are. QC on these really suck.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tubular:
I too am in awe that Asus hasn't straightened out their Prime, it's almost a mirror copy of the TF101 launch and that was a monumental failure on every level.

Again with the TF201 we've noticed short stocks and extremely varied QC and the problems associated with the TF201 are identical to the problems associated with the TF101. RMA is also the same, with users reporting Asus facilities claiming the product was broken when it was mailed back.

Literally nothing has changed and that's quite possible the saddest part. They've learned NOTHING. They haven't had a good stock plan in effect, they didn't revamp their RMA procedure, they haven't changed their QC policies, it's all just one big joke.

There's no WAY you should accept that much light bleed. We didn't accept it on the TF101 and that was with a retail price of $400 on the 16GB version. At a $500 premium that's completely, totally, unequivocably, unacceptable. If they want to sell garbage, they better price it at a garbage price. You can't charge $500 and deliver a product that's worse than the iPad 2 in terms of QC. I hate to use an iPad as comparison more than the next person but it really is a no brainer since it's direct competition. Granted the iPad 2 does have light bleed too but at least it has working Wi-Fi and GPS. :cool:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Wifi version ipad2 doesn't have God..lmfao. plus its been known n proven ipad2 has worse wifi than original Ipad. This was due to them relocated the antennae due to the new design. They had to put it near the speaker grille. Ipad2 wifi works marginally just good enough for use. So unless stats on work between ipad2 n prime can be compared, what you said is a false statement. Wifi works great on my prime n actually pulls faster speeds than my ipad1. As far as range, they on par with each other.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gogol:
Just curious, is there any ipad2 forum where users are complaining about wifi performance? ... You know, similar situation what we found here in the Prime's XDA forum where we found quite a lot of users strongly complained their Prime wifi works below expectation (mostly something like it works when close to the router).

I just want to compare general perception of owners ... as you said the ipad2 is more or less the same as current Prime wifi performance. So, I expect there must be general dissatisfaction about that ...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
The difference though is that all iPad2's work exactly the same. And the performance loss is about 10-15% so performance isn’t "marginal." The issue with the Prime isn't that its Wi-Fi isn't as strong as the TF101, it's that there are huge variances between devices. Asus introduced pogo pins and a bizarre antenna routing so they'd have access to the glass front panel. All because of the solid metal back cover. That's made assembly needlessly complex. That complexity is what's causing the variances between devices and the signal to be affected just by squeezing the device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tubular:
What's God? You mean GPS on demand? You mean how the iPad 2 uses fake GPS through Wi-Fi hotspots and cellular antennas?

I already knew that, so what? The point is it receives signals without much issues, whether they're fake GPS through the use of Wi-Fi hotspots or real GPS is totally irrelevant.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Beards:
Well done Barry... That is an excellent summary on why there is such a differing problem with the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjdevega:
BarryH_GEG vs demandarin

I just wanted to say that I have enjoyed watching both of you go at it:) Both of you are so knowledgable and both have such strong personalities. Clash of the Titians, Polar opposites, Ying & Yang. A post isn't complete and satisfying unless BarryH_GEG and demandarin are on the seen. I'm serious! I look forward to both of you duking it out:D

Edit: Oh and that is aweful light bleeding!!! Might as well open her up and loosen those screws!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] unknown_owner:
That sucks but that's life. At least you can return you Prime. My 3yr sh!tted in his humidifier; can't return the kid and tell his mother never again. So if my Prime or any other product I have is jacked up, I think of all the crazy sh!t my kid is putting me through and that other stuff is a piece of cake.

Just a shame they don't really care what we post, anytime I call them they just give me then standard return it for a refund. If you ask me they want this so they can get ones we return polished and cleaned ready for the next poor sap. They replacement i got today has a scratch on the back had the most up to date patch for EU, and has obviously been used. Surprise surprise, the people i got it from no longer care. Apparently before you charge it ready to go you should check it for damage. Don't know about the rest of you but i find there is more to see on the front rather than the back and don't expect damage anyway so i didn't notice for a few hours.

"light bleed is only visible on black screens..."

Do you have eyes - Or are you relying on your seeing eye dog to do your computing for you?

Look at the pictures. That lightbleed is TERRIBLE. How anyone could respond to this with a "ho hum lightbleeding is no big deal its barely noticable", is beyond me.

I returned mine which had bad lightbleeding, now im waiting 6 weeks for a replacement. My Lightbleed wasn't even as bad as this guy.

20 years of buying ASUS must have destroyed your retinas, because I wouldn't trust you with traffic light

LOL sorry, wasn't trying to start anything, it was before lunch, my stomach was grumbling, and I'm just sick of people trying to marginalize user experience as being unimportant.

its one thing if its a little lightbleed, but you have to draw the line somewhere right?

I think ASUS just needs some org. changes in their tablet department. My ASUS BBL9 laptop was a steal and I couldn't be happier with it.

Will this work on my Charge?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstang2006:
Nice write up.

Note: You may want to make it clear that it is the permanent method for flashing CWM recovery.

Also, I though I heard the Superuser application was not compatible with 4.0.4, and we will need to wait for an update? :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
What I posted, works 100%.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt30:
---------- Post added at 10:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------

adrynalyne hacked a new version that works on 4.0.4.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
It will still receive updates from the market as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstang2006:
Cool, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Se7enLC:
Also grab the pre-rooted 4.0.4 kernel from here

What on earth is a "pre-rooted 4.0.4 kernel"?

Did you mean pre-rooted 4.0.4 update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Nope. Its exactly what I meant. There is gui root, via Superuser, and there is adb root, via kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] williamthegoat:
I updated by unlocking, temp booting CWM, and updating through there. Either way works
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Except your way does not verify the signature. I myself am not comfortable with that for an ota. I'll add your method as well though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] williamthegoat:
Oh, seriously? Should I go back to 4.0.2 and do it the other way? Does it make a difference? I still want to be getting OTAs and what not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I wouldn't worry about it. I am just the paranoid type.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aerichards1977:
I got it to work, but trying to flash the update using the factory recovery would just give me the error with the android belly open with the !. I just moved it to the sd card then and used the alternative method (without verification) and it worked great. Thanks for everything - I really wanted to check this out. We'll see how long I stay on it though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shovelheadhd:
Thanks for the su file adrynalyne! I flashed it through cwm and it worked like a charm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psone:
Can someone please explain this line and what goes in the image name spot?

fastboot boot recoveryimagename.img (use the correct name)

I tried the recommended upgrade and got the same as the person a few posts above "flashed the update using the factory recovery would just give me the error with the android belly open with the !"
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jjsabado:
following the recommended install way, i too get the android with red exclamation when trying to adb reboot recovery; after pushing the update into /cache.

Any suggestions?

Its not an error. You need to press the power button and volume+ at the same time to access the menu.

I have a question about removing the patch check and installation from the installer script. Is there a link somewhere explaining how to go about doing this? Sorry if this is a newb question, but other than unlocking the bootloader, I used a lot of one-click methods to root and install clockwork recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
If there is, I dont know of it.

The editing is pretty straightforward. There is a patch check, and a patch file. Two lines in the installer-script. Nuke em.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] umataro42:
Unfortunately, its not straight forward for me. Do I edit this on my phone or save the file to my computer and edit from there? Either way, can anyone recommend a good (free) script editor I can use for this?

And do I need to extract the zip file to get to the installer-script, or is it the zip file itself?

Thanks for any help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaestreetss:
I reflashed stock 402 from the toolkit downloaded the 38 mb update file extracted using root explorer then deleted the recovery from the update file zipped it using root expl. And flashed everything went well and no data wipe or root loss. Also I used the regular cwm not touch....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] umataro42:
Did you delete the entire recovery folder, or just the recovery-from-boot.p? And thanks for everything else, its explained enough for even me to do this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
I would use notepad++. Just DON'T use notepad. Gedit, VI, and Nano work fine too if you are in Nix.

Basically, extract, and the updater-script is under one of the Meta-Inf subfolders.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I would recommend that you replace the file that is giving you the error instead of removing the patch. That way, all your files will be updated to the current build, and there will be no inconsistencies. If you just remove the patch, then that one file will not be updated, and depending on what it is, it may cause you problems later on -- at a minimum, it will force you to do the same process on every update...

You can edit on a computer or on your device, but it is obviously easier on a computer... And I agree with adrynalyne, notepad++ is good.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] umataro42:
Finally on 4.0.4!

Thanks for the advice, and the link to your other post on where to find all the tools to get the system.img and extract all the bin files. I finally sat down at my computer at home and eventually was able to extract the files, and copy them to my phone (after failing with ADB commands, I just copied the bin files to my SD card and used Explorer to copy the files into system/bin.

It worked after replacing "gzip", "ip", and "ping", just like Soaringswine mentioned in the other thread about this. It was a good learning experience too.

Thanks for the info, but I ended up going the safer route and just replacing the problem files.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
All that deleting the entire recovery folder does is prevent your current recovery from being overwritten by the stock recovery. Nothing more, nothing less. If, when you apply the OTA update, you want the stock recovery, leave that folder as is. If you want to keep your current recovery (like CWM or whatever), just delete the folder from the update file.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] umataro42:
Oops, I was getting this mixed up with revising the installer script, which I ended up not doing.

I did lose my CWM recovery but was able to flash it back (and restore root) afterwards using Scary Alien's Android Root Toolkit app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] someguy20:
Do you need stock recovery to install this? I get all the way to the part where it says "install from cache" and I'm stuck. I go to CWM recovery and there is no option to install from cache. I used one of those "one click to root" things to get root and CWM. I didn't do anything custom ROM. Every tutorial I've tried to go back to stock breaks the recovery. I can put CWM back on, but stock recovery is unrecoverable. Any ideas?

Thanks a bunch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
No, but CWM cannot install from /cache, only from /sdcard. See update link in my sig.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] someguy20:
efrant you are awesome!!! After 4 or 5 tries at tutorials to reset to stock, only XDA has the awesomeness needed to fix my issues.

Thanks.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jschall:
The A100 wakes automatically from sleep whenever it is either plugged-in or unplugged from its charger.

I would like to disable this silly behaviour if possible.

My wife learned the hard way. Prior to leaving on an overnight trip, she plugged in her tablet with its folio case closed. When the power button changed from orange to blue, she unplugged her tablet and threw it into her purse, not realizing it was awake all the time. When, several hours later she took out her A100 to use it, it was dead.

What would it take to disable the auto-wakeup? Is there a config file that could be hacked by the root user? Or would it take a complete new firmware?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] solidhalon:
In this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1288306, they're discussing the same issue but with the A500, still it could be of help.

Ok, I'm having the same issue and I tried almost everything possible except rooting and using a different rom (I just don't want to). But, I found a work around at least for the the screen to stay off by installing Wake Lock - PowerManager. Now, the device won't go into sleep and the cpu will be on all the time.

I installed the app in my A100 and selected the first option, then pressed the power button and the screen stayed off during all night until I turned it on again by pressing the power button again. Of course the battery was on 25% from its aprox 86% I left it before me going to bed, at least 9 hours passed when I waked up on the morning and turned the screen on.

Then I charged the device completely and started to listen to music with my Koss UR40(I mention which headphone as a consumption variable) and activated the app, turned off the screen and aprox 1 hours later only 10% of battery was consumed.

Notes:

Music app I used: Folder Player

Airplane Mode: ON

Hope the info is of any help!

Hi,

This is my first post and I just recently updated my phone to the new Sky Ice Cream Sandwich rom. First off I thought this was a great rom and it is... problem is I experienced a few bugs I was wondering anyone could help me out with. First off I keep switching to the text input to swype in the settings but after a while it switches off to the Android keyboard or the Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard free that came with the rom. Second thing that keeps bugging me is that I like to have my music playing with full functionality of the phone but when I clear my ram it shuts down, It has never done that before. If anyone could help me with these issues than it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Keyboard & language and change your keyboard to swype. Set you taskiller or whatever to ignore the music app your using. More than likely in the app settings also neither are really bugs more of gripes your title is misleading
