Undocked:

- browsing the web

- emails on the road or office or on the can

- some games

- Google maps and navigation

- check movie times

Docked:

- browsing the web

- documents and emails

- watch movies (MX Player is the best and NetFlix)

- transfer data from mini SD to micro SD to move files between laptop and Prime

I do video and music editing on the laptop still and if I am really getting down and dirty on writing emails or documents, I would switch to the laptop and use Word 2010. Other than that, I can't see myself using the laptop for anything and prefer the Prime as it also lasts 12 hours on the tablet alone and I have not done a full test on how long it lasts with the dock.

Just have to know what it can and cannot do and work with it. You sound like you need something a little more robust than a tablet. I wouldn't dare to think of doing any kind of video editing on the Prime or even music.

Heh, ok not really :)

Web surfing, email, games, watcing videos, etc. Normal stuff you would use a computer or laptop for.

Reminisce on what else I could have spent $500 on.

other than that:

Games

Web Browsing

Music

Movies

some word processing

Emails

Navigation (Oh wait thats right my prime has never seen a satelite, I dont think it knows what one is or what to even do with it if it found one) Thanks ASUS!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I think if you want to figure out whether or not a tablet is for you, it's best to consider exactly what makes a tablet different from a notebook. It's those differences that make the tablet much worse for some things, but much better for others.

They are:

1. Instant-on: tablets can be turned on and off instantly. That means they can be used for quick tasks like checking email where booting/waking a notebook is simply less convenient and/or less efficient.

2. Standby battery life: can sit there for days unused, which along with #1 makes them great for doing ad hoc stuff where often a notebook will often be out of power and need plugging in.

Note: Ultrabooks and Macbook Airs mitigate some of the advantages here, but I think even with those wake and standby times are still tablet strengths.

3. Form facter: tablets can be used in more settings and positions than notebooks. For example, lying on a couch or in bed, standing in line, etc.

4. Mobile OS: touch-based, relatively simple interface makes casual tasks easier and more pleasant. Modern tablet OSs provide a more natural interface for many things, getting rid of mice and trackpads for direct manipulation of on-screen elements.

These things combine to make tablets great for things that don't require a great deal of content creation (the Prime's keyboard dock changes that equation a bit when you're talking about raw data entry). No, they can't beat notebooks for heavy duty tasks, but then again that's not their strength: they're best for all the non-heavy-duty tasks we use computers for. If you stop and think about how you use a computer, I think you can probably come up with a good list of such tasks.

A tablet won't replace a notebook for many people, but it makes a great adjunct device. Even here at the office where I have a decent notebook (HP Envy 14), I still use my tablet for some things because it's more comfortable, efficient, and/or just more fun.

To help transfer files use Dropbox. It has clients for Windows and Linux and mac and Android so very easy to move stuff around. Between that and having a freeNAS box that I can easily browse with es file explorer I have no troubles with it.

I personally use it mostly for Web browsing and forum posting. I also ssh into my university Linux system often to work on labs and whatnot. I do watch some video on it when bored and it's my primary email device.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
Do you own another Android device with a GPS? Bluetooth2GPS is free and works fine between my Prime and Nexus.. solved my only 'slight' issue with the device :p

I run in performance at 1.5 with vc and I'm mainly in Browser -much easier to use with touch than on my notebook (Toshiba 16" i7) ive actually forgotten and touched the screen on that by accident!! just my preference I guess seems just as fast as Chrome on there. Facebook, Netflix, GTalk and Gmail ...also makes my notebook pretty much just for games now. Transferring files I simply hook up over USB and drag and drop... ASTRO or the native Asus file manager that came with it to mess with them once they are loaded.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Even better, add in Dropsync, to sync files locally. I do that so I have my important files synced but available when I'm offline.

SuperOneClick 2.1.1

Gingerbreak Apk

Hi, i found it the solution, my Livepad 7.2 multitouch is Free, i got it ROOT.!!

if you are interested here are the method:

1.- Install Gingerbreak 1.2 on the tablet, get here [http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=578771&d=1303829207]

2.- Run Gingerbreak 1.2 and press "Root Device" Button, tablet will turn off in this step, just turn back on.

3.- Connect tablet to PC, you must have USB Debugging enabled on the tablet, and make sure you got ADB and usb drivers already installed, you can get adb** and usb drivers *.

4.- Open Command prompt on PC, and browse to the folder where you got adb.exe (ie for windows 7 C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools ).

5.- In command prompt type "adb shell" (without quotes) and hit enter.

6.- In command prompt type "cd /system/bin" and hit enter.

7.- In command prompt type "./su", and hit enter, in this step in the tablet will show a pop up asking for permission, just press "Allow", if the pop up doesn't show just wait a few seconds and repeat this step.

8.- On command prompt type "rm /system/busybox/bin/su" and hit enter, that's all.

Now you got it, Permanent Root of Livepad Multitouch 7.2 Android 2.3

So I installed Cm 7.1 smoothly. But it never works.

here is what I've tried:

Install CM 7.1, reboot into recovery and install google apps, nothing shows up

Install CM 7.1, reboot into recovery and install pacman, nothing shows up

Install CM 7.1, reboot into recovery and manually install the android market apk, Can launch the market but when I try to login it crashes.

Install CM 7.1 then install apps and then reboot. No google apps show up.

I'm kind of lost right now.

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarroyo:
Try using SuperWipe then while still in recovery flash your rom and flash gapps right after.

If that fails I'd suggest flashing one of the CM Nightlies a lot of the earlier issues found in 7.1 have been cleaned up in nightlies.

Hi. I have Xperia Arc S with wifi problem.

I googled and i cant find any solution, so that why i'm here.

It looks like this. I connect to my home network, leaving phone connected for about 4 minutues, and sometimes its looses connection and dont connect again. Andorid scan for wifi, try to connect, and shows that is disconnected. It looks just like in this video watch?v=752FxRwPEtQ

(You just need to put it in youtube link, i cant post outside video)

I have arc s .62 with doomkernel, wifi is protected with WPA2 PSK.

My router is Netgear DG834G v5.

Thanks for any help.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinkster:
Try this http://justinionn.tumblr.com/post/17487043450/sony-ericsson-xperia-arc-s-wi-fi-problem

Or this;

1) Open your router in your browser on the computer

2) Go to DHCP Connections (or something along those lines)

3) Delete the your Arc from the list of devices connected to the network

4) Create a new manual connection

5) Insert your Arc's ip and mac addresses (look in your phone's advanced settings under Wireless)

6)Save the whole thing and try it again.

Hi

I had Motomizer and i deleted some apps such as email and cooperate email.

I formated my Phone

and i forgot to restore the apps i deleted via motomiser.

Is there any way i can get them back?
[Defy General] tlongren:
Can't you reinstall them with motomizer? If not, a factory reset would probably do the trick.
[Defy General] xiaokai:
thats what i thought

but it didnt restore the apps.

1) I installed motomizer

2) I deleted the email apps via Motomizer

3) I did a factory reset (forgot to restore the apps via motomizer)

4) Formated the MicoSD (which deleted the backup app from motomizer)

Now i dont have the email apps even after a factory reset

I installed motomiser again after reset, but the apps i deleted prior to the reset are not there in the restore tab maybe because i formated the MicroSD where they were backed up by motomizer.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aplaceinspace:
Hello all,

So I am an avid ROM flasher (I try at least 2 a week), and recently when I try to install Sense 3.0 or 3.5 ROMs I have an issue; The ROM flashes and boots up all nice and good, but the startup application that runs by default on a fresh install doesn't show up. All I get is the wallpaper and the notification bar w/ clock, battery etc. but thats it, I can't get passed this to any other screen :(. After all that the only way I can get back to recovery to flash a working ROM is through a battery pull.

Like I always do with new ROMs, I

nandroid

factory wipe/reset

wipe cache a few times

wipe dalvik cache a couple times

flash GruesomesWipeAll.zip

then flash ROM

The wierd part is that I can flash Stock Barebones just fine along with any other ICS ROM with no issues.

So I guess what im getting at is, is there im doing something wrong i.e. flashing or wiping?:confused:

PS. my SD is partitioned

PSS. the ROMs that arent working for me are

The Express

EnergyROM

And one other that I forgot

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dylanmfh:
When the transformer prime was first announced i thought it was a good time for me to come back to android as i was in the market for a laptop and i had just got a windows phone replacing me evo (moved out of sprint). And for $500 i can get a quad core laptop / tablet combo. Sounded like a sweet deal.

I am a web developer and i would of loved to be able to work on my websites on the road, or when ever iam away from my pc.

When i first got the prime it was the best thing since slice bread to me but after about a month reality hit yet again that even though it is a quad core, it has a keyboard dock, it. is. still. android.

Force close, lock up, force close. It is pretty much way too unstable to even attempt to code on. I've thought about rom-ing but nothing really has enticed me yet as all of them seem to have some kind of major issue (keyboard dock or what have you)

I've bought splashtop thd and this has been a great alternative, but there is always wifi issues if not with my home (or away) wifi or one of the devices acting up.

Will there ever been hope for possibly a windows 8 (i understand the serial numbers / illegal issues with it), ubuntu (or any linux distro), or even a chrome os on this thing?

or should i (i really love the primes form factor and cant find anything else like it) sell it and try and buy something like a zenbook?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
too unstable to code..lol tell that to the several developers already making great things for prime. maybe you meed to be on latest release or flash a custom rom if you feel stock is sketchy. I'm on stock n had prime since 12/22 n been running great. overclocked to 1.6Ghz also.

as far as dual boot,eventually it'll come. we already have different versions or Linux you can put on Prime. plus several people using the prime to code and develop for the device itself. check out the development thread for ideas or to get a scoop of what's already possible n coming on the prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Sorry demandarin, but you have no idea what you are talking about here ;) custom roms aren't "made" on the device itself ;)

At OP: windows 8 is more unlikely just because of the legal issues and xda's point of view concerning this.

Linux is just a matter of time though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doddsie:
I think microshits have confirmed win8 will be pretty much locked down to windows phones dont stop some people though. there is work being done on dual boot, cant remember what post i saw though (i read a lot) though there is some good work being done with Linux where they run alongside each other, so you get andriod apps within the linux client. Then through linux running powerpoint. All pretty cool stuff, fairly sure we will be turning our primes into something amazing one day. Not that they aren't all ready cool (when you get a working one.)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Spidey01:
Prime has been more than stable enough for my development needs, give or take the crud WiFi where I work. What is lacking is tools for debugging web pages.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ickk:
rom's aren't as unstable as you make them out to be.

windows 8 will be locked down and even if it is cracked, there are a slew of challenges following that. You're better off waiting for a windows 8 tablet.

Linux looks more promising - there are already dual boots for ubuntu on the tf101, it could use a lot of work but it's making progress.

[Sony Tablet S] Bojanglez:
I haven't tried renting yet but when I try to play a video from my personal collection it says video cannot be played after about 3seconds of the video, I think that is an issue with the sony video player as that is what is used to launch it. Have u guys tried installing the stock Android video app, maybe that will work?
[Sony Tablet S] arcopress:
Google movies can only be played in the 'PLAY MOVIE' google app.
[Sony Tablet S] Bojanglez:
So when you click play it doesn't try and launch the video in the Sony Video player? It is strange that when you go to play a video from that app that is on the internal storage that it tries to launch a different app then if it has the video playing capabilities built in.

I haven't rented a Google movie yet to test that aspect myself, I was just commenting on the app not being able to launch internally stored video properly.
[Sony Tablet S] arcopress:
Correct. Google movies play within the Play Movie player only.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loser003:
Hi guys,

I've started joining the android tinkering world and have recently acquired a bricked atrix as a hobby. I have poured over the sticky posted in the Atrix Devs part of the forums (and many other threads) for sometime now. I can't find an answer and I'm now stuck in my tinkering. And there seems to be no complete consensus if there is any way to fix a bricked atrix. My atrix does have the same error message of

SVF:105:1:2

Failed to boot 0x1000

Entering NVFlash Recovery Mode

Battery is too low to flash

My own currents attempts have been to create a factory cable, which allowed me to successfully connect to my computer. The drivers recognize that the phone is connected, but when I run NVFlash and do a test command --sync, I get the error:

USB failed to write

So from what I have gathered, Motorola has not released the SBK for the atrix so I cannot flash through this method correct? Is there anything I can do from here, or possibly a different method? Or is this phone simply hard bricked?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Man.:
Simply hardbricked... Read around the forum. Its posted in many places. You cannot recover a hard brick.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheeparecurious:
yep. Sorry dude. It doesn't help that the term "brick" is used for so many different failed-to-boot states, but the Unrecoverable Hard Brick is when NVFlash is your only boot option for exactly the reason you stated -- we don't have the SBK from motorola.

(If you have access to any other options, like fastboot or RSD, that's a "soft brick" and it's possible to recover.)

But yeah I did look around the forums quite a bit. Its just the information is never quite clear with all the people posting and whatnot.

Hard to imagine that you'll be able to get your keys working right again without taking the dock apart, which will be very tricky. From what I've read, it is difficult to take the dock apart -- I think one guy said it was "booby-trapped," which probably means it can be easily damaged.
