[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
Seems I was a bit premature giving thanks to Knives. (By the way, I'm an Amazon Prime member)

NowInStock.net only shows online retailers. Given enough margin, online retailers will sell anything.

What is strange is every local retailer that carried the Prime is now telling me the same story:

They've heard of problems with the Prime

They've had a lot of returns of the Prime

They have no estimate of when, or if, they will get new stock

Not just one, but all of them: BestBuy, HHGRegg, GameStop and even Staples!

Since Gary has confirmed the Prime has less than 1% failure rate, which is AWESOME, it just seems strange that no local retailers are expecting new stock. If these things are flying off the shelves, why don't any retailers have them or at least an ETA?

The TFP is exactly what I want. For me, higher resolution "2048xwhatever" is just too small on a 10" display, plus it will be slower.

Even Apple products are not this constrained after two months, where people camp out and wait for them.

Its been two months, and retailers are saying due to problems we're not sure when we'll get more?

Ofcourse, there is always the extermely remote possibility that Gary is not telling us the truth. That retailers have suffered from such a high return rate, they have decided not to carry that SKU anymore.

Which I'm sure is not the case. I'm sure Gary will post here tomorrow and clear things up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xIC-MACIx:
@Swift, howdy :D, I see your located in C-Stat. I actually called the BB here in C-Stat today to see if there were any Primes available after returning my 2nd one last weekend. The rep told me they could have 2 avail by tomorrow and to call in the morning. Just a heads up if your looking bro.

Also guys, I called the BB in my hometown and on 2 different occasions they told me they were waiting on the "new batch" of primes b/c of all the problems they have been having with them. No info as to when this "new batch" is hitting stores though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Swiftks:
HOWDY!

Thanks, but I'm replacing my 64GB Grey, which as far as I know BB doesn't carry. Besides, I'm getting a full replacement from Amazon... whenever they get some again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hauj0bb:
With the law suit happening (and probably winning), it'd be smart for Asus not to ship any new primes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Vcolassi:
BINGO! Exactly what i did. I was like WTH cant i find it on their site. Light bulb went off & i used google & it came up. Did a store check and what do you know..... 2 stores locally just got a stock. I grabbed my jacket, & GF and ran! LOL. Actually the guy held it for me.

Oh also when i returned my original to BB the lady said they were not selling them anymore because of the high return rate.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
I'm an Amazon Prime member too.

I guess you missed the seperate paragraph, which was in ALL CAPS, that said:

"BUT I CANNOT FIND PRIMES ANYWHERE LOCALLY!!"

Some people don't mind spending a little extra money and time, to buy something locally. But since you have no idea why that would happen, its not valid. Guessing you have no use for GPS or BT also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
I Googled Staples and TF201 and found it on their site. Checked local availability a couple days ago, and there were a couple stores with stock. Returning my Prime tomorrow. Re-checked Staples, no local availability. Plus if you check their main site, they don't even acknowledge TF201 as an item.

Must be because its so poplular, they don't want to sell it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NastroGlide:
We can't help but feel that we're being lied to by Asus. These things are f'd up and being sent back as fast as they can ship them. Very disappointed in Asus for this massive f'up. 1% failure rate my a$$. I was totally ready to accept a unit w non functioning GPS (as I won't use it), but screen bleed out the a$$! no. And still a locked bootloader!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
I know how you feel (except I would use the GPS). But I'm sure local retailers are wrong, and a boat-load of fully functional TFP's are on their way to retailers.

I bet the retailers got caught up in reading XDA posts and didn't pay attention to their actual return rates, which are less than 1%, like Gary said.

Seriously looking forward to Gary's reply. I know he has a couple PM's, but with less than 1% defects, spending 30 seconds addressing this thread will clear things up for a lot of existing and potential customers. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] westcoastgeek:
NCIX in Canada shows >53 in stock of 32 and 64 gb versions. I bought one there last month and it was such a hassle returning. I had to demonstrate all issues to the service guy and he was very reluctant to take it back until he got the ok from ASUS. I won't be buying my next tablet from them. Their return policy is horrible.

I am awaiting confirmation on this forum that a new batch is on its way.

West coast.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Reignzone:
I honestly believe that most U.S. retailers have lost faith in ASUS as a reputable manufacturer.

If stock hasn't been replenished in major U.S. cities such as Dallas, TX... then something is clearly wrong with the product and demand by consumers appears to have lessened as a result.

Sent from the last remaining Prime; Leader of the Autopads.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
Guys, stop with these stupid threads that are directed at Gary. He reads this forum. He responds when necessary. If you want to speak to him directly, send him a PM, he will reply if he finds it necessary.

Don't make a public thread and call Gary out in that manner.

That is just stupid.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Plenty of major retailers carry prime. Best buy has plenty in stock and online store shows it also. Demand is so high for it. Seeing more n more new prime owners coming into xda prime section everyday. The Prime has sold alot more and has reached alot more people than you may think. There was a recent poll here that had the most Prime owners on xda vote. Out of 195 xda prime owners that voted, more than 75%(147) said they like the prime and keeping it. Landslide victory for prime. Here's the proof:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1491431

So not as many returning as it seems. Kinda reflects Gary statement of less than 1% failure rate. Several complaint threads obviously don't reflect the real numbers here in xda on what's going on.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pileot:
I have mixed feelings about this thread...

On the one hand i know demand for this thing is HUGE! The MemoryExpress in my area just recently got its shipment of primes in and 98% went to preorders, sold out within a day or two. Same story for the second shipment. They dont know when they will get more. Its no longer on their website. Stock issues? Discontinued? Coincidence, i think not.

I bought my (first) prime at futureshop. Earlier model, crap for wifi, no GPS, returned 2 weeks later.

Bought my (second) prime at BestBuy. C1 model, good wifi, crap for GPS (big surprise), returned it two weeks later.

Bought my (third: read second) prime from BestBuy (open box, only one they had, same serial as my second one, go figure, but it was $100 off because they had the wrong sticker so hells ya!)

Every time i go in its the last or second last prime they have in stock. I have noticed they no longer have display models up for the prime. Half the associates dont know when they will get more in, the other half say online only. Either way, its not showing in stores and the very, very few they ARE getting are selling out pretty much the day they get them.

Overall, i think the best option IS for Asus to discontinue the prime as it currently is. I can definately see how my local retailers are losing money by having lots of returns, its one of the most sought after (and most returned) tablets of the year...

Asus needs to apply the fixes they learned from this screwup, make the 301 or 202 or 201b or whatever you want to call it with a PLASTIC back and call it a day. Use polycarbinate or carbon fiber or whatever you need to give it strength, but figure out a fix and go for it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mmilestone:
I have to say, I agree with this sentiment.

It does sound disrespectful - to any person. Specially to one who's been assisting others (whether he liked it or not) for something not personally his fault.

My suggestion is for the OP to change the title of the thread. Remove the name as a sign of respect to another poster - something clearly within XDA's rules.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Vcolassi:
I wouldn't doubt it. When i picked mine up he said they literally just got them in. He was also bragging how fast they were and awesome they were. I didn't rain on his parade saying any of the problems lol.

ALso to my surprise the 2nd Staples i went to had one on display which is a first ive seen in any store. I was actually trying to install Wifi Anyalyzer, GPS test and junk on it to test the display model as i waited for them to get mine from the back lol. But he came out and i was like ahhh forget it. I was just eager to get home and try mine. I got a C1 from staples, well actually 2. Zero reboots & no wifi or bluetooth problems so far! Keeping my fingers crossed!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jerdog:
Seriously? Are you kidding me? Maybe you should contact Asus to send you the parts and YOU can put them together.

So ungrateful - pathetic whining. What's next? Complain there are no more Yugo's?
[HTC Amaze 4G] jtroye32:
I'm really debating switching to the Amaze from the GS2 due to the horrible screen issue the Qualcomm S2 has due to the video drivers being emulated from the Exynos version. Im guessing the Amaze's drivers are made for it right?

Other than that, the things that concern me about the Amaze are the light bleed from the capacitive buttons and random reboots/shutdowns. I know the button issue can be resolved by turning them off, but wouldn't it be hard to see/use them in the dark? How prominent are the shutdowns/reboots? Anything else I should be concerned about? I'm coming from a G1 so I keep my phones awhile :)

Edit: Just realized there is no S-OFF either. What limitations does this produce compared to a device with S-OFF?
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
I've never had a reboot or bootloop. Just make sure you read and follow instructions. Light bleed apparently varies from device to device. Mine is noticeable but only on dark background and I actually think it looks cool. Call me weird :/ I've never had an issue really, other than the backcover and case preventing me to get a great WiFi signal. I haven't tried the foil trick. Also, the back cover makes a plastic creeking noise, but a thin folded piece of paper back there fixes it. Sounds kind of ghetto for a high end phone, but the camera and display are great in my opinion and the radio gets great service. There are some good ROMs and its a fast sexy phone. I like it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
had an s2 as well, had the bad screen and sent it back. jumped ship to the amaze and build wise, i think its a better crafted device. had to return 2 of em, but my 3rd one is on point. havent used it enough to give a better opinion, but so far i like it alot better. go for it
[HTC Amaze 4G] Bdix:
My wife has the gs2 and I can't stand that thing. Crappy screen and touchwiz kill it for me. I love my amaze.
[HTC Amaze 4G] adamboyd83:
I came from the Gs2 about 2 weeks ago. And I have the light bleed but it's not terrible. Haven't had any random reboots or anything. Build quality is head over heels better than the gs2. Also firs in the pocket better. I love this phone and don't regret the switch one bit. Can't wait to root it andget to flashing.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Ekorshus:
Agreed! I love it, except my GPS orientation is 180* off on Google maps latest build... Doesn't seem anyone has a fix, or cares enough to make one...
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
F#@* so is mine... Smh
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
Google maps issue, not an amaze issue. Today's update supposedly fixed it
[HTC Amaze 4G] FranzDages:
I've had the Amaze since a few days after it's release. I have had one or two reboots, but easily could have been something that I did. Today's Google Maps update fixed the orientation problem for me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] eggydrums:
Hello there I've seen lots of people asking some really dumb questions about flashing on the Amaze. So, to all those persons, use this guide as a reference.

1. Required!!

[*] Root access(duh)

[*] Recovery ( Twrp or Cmw, thanks to xboarder)

2. Flashing a ROM ( how I do it )

1) Download desired Rom and Super wipe script (available on Bulletproof thread if I'm not mistaken)

2) After downloaded, move to root of SD card (no folders)

3) Reboot into recovery

* Turn phone off, turn on again, by

pressing volume down and

buttons

4) Backup just in case!

5) Select install zip > Superwipe.zip (or however its named) phone will reboot after flashing

6) Install zip again, this time select the rom.

7) Reboot system now

3. Kernels

Some roms required a kernel to be flashed.

To flash kernels, use xboarder's Easy Kernel Flasher.

I've seen this question many times... Where's the kernel?

For some roms such as Energy or Bulletproof the kernel is inside the zip. I download the Rom in my computer, I copy it to my device, AFTER flashing the Rom, I go to the rom zip file in my pc and extract the boot.img (kernel) to the kernel here folder in the Easy Kernel flasher.

How I usually flash a kernel after ROM installation (corrections are welcome):

1) In recovery, go to mounts and storage > mount usb storage

2) Connect device to computer and flash the kernel.

3) Done!

Alternate Method:

I usually do this when I already have a ROM flashed just so you know. It is much easier and no pc required.

1) Download Flash Image GUI app (link in second post)

2) Backup just in case

3) Follow the instructions to flash

4) Reboot to see changes

5) Done

Like I said, i usually do this after flashing a ROM, for example, I have Bulletproof ROM and i have flashed the kernel that comes with it, I decide to flash Faux kernel, I use the app.

4. Restoring system

If you don't like a Rom you flashed or had any problems, you restore the backup you made. Again, how I do it:

1) Reboot into recovery

2) Flash Superwipe script

3) Restore your backup

4) Reboot system

If for some reason you can't find the links or the threads for anything I've put here, there are links below to the threads.

Big thanks to xboarder56 for his hard work and dedication to bring devs to this forum.

Thanks to NRGZ28 whose ROM I'm using as a daily driver :D

Faux123 for his amazing (lol) kernel

And to all the hard working devs!!

No, there is nothing you can flash from standard Android recovery to root your phone.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vvis:
Hi,

These days I try and try to send data(stream) from an Android-Mobile to a PC VIA USB cable,

I made it good that a socket("10.0.2.2", 6543) on the android emulator sending data stream to a ServerSocket(6543) On a PC , before which I had run "adb forward tcp:12345 tcp:6543".

But when I setup a socket("10.0.2.2", 6543) on a REAL Android-Mobile and a serverSocket on the PC, the socket on the Android-Mobile can NOT send data to the ServerSocket on the PC.

Please help me. Why can't I use the socket on the Android-Mobile to send data to the ServerSocket(6543) on the PC. What is the different between the REAL device and the android emulator. Or , is the IP setted to be wrong? How can I get the IP of the PC VIA USB ADB?

On the other hand, I make it out to send data from a PC to a REAL Android-Mobile as socket and serverSocket.

Thx all for focusing!

[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] krelvinaz:
A while back, I copied a copy of my Droid Slingmedia from my Droid Incredible and moved it over to the Kindle Fire. It loaded correctly and I was able to login without any issues... however, my Slingbox power supply apparently had died and I couldn't actually test it.

Today, I replaced the power supply on the Slingbox and gave it a shot.

Works great.

About the only real complaint is controlling the sound which is a bit funky since you either need to change the KF volume which breaks the stream or use the controls to (slowly) lower the volume on the remove DVR.

But other than that, I was a bit surprised it worked as well as it did.

I noticed the other day an article from Jan where they plan on releasing a KF version, but I'm not too sure what they would change.

No link to the APK as it is a purchased app...
[Kindle Fire Themes and Apps] screwyluie:
There's a volume app you can get that puts a touch overlay in the corner of the screen. This won't break the stream

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_nivesout:
The problem is mainly cause by hardware interference, but it can be bandaged a little bit. If you search the old glitch thread you could read a fair amount about phantom press issue. Glitch 13.1 (for gingerbread) has "fixes" for the issue in place that drastically reduced the amount of phantom presses I experienced. Those weren't added to v14 though, because for others it apparently didn't work or actually exacerbated the issue. I asked tk-glitch about it and I think he said he's at least looking at implementing it into v14 though.

You can also turn off the long-press back to kill feature too, I've kept it off because I had issues with it closing apps by itself when it was enabled.
