I pre-ordered a new iPad. I think any reasonable human being who is not an angst-ridden teen can understand why they sell well. And any reasonable human being can understand why people prefer Android and their tablets, and their ability to customize.

It's such a shame that we get stupid troll posts like the one the OP posted. And the following comments aren't much better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mchimney:
I preordered one as well, while I love android ( I have a galaxy nexus and gtab 10.1), I don't think the android tablet experience is quite there yet. The iPad has always been smooth as butter, sure it has no lwp or widgets but IMO I can live without those for the time being
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jetbruceli:
Ok wow this Ipad was just announced and sounds like a few upgrades but really, I have played with ipads and to me, they are nothing but oversized ipod touches. They dont have anything that gives it a personal touch to it. I love my prime and more so now that it is still the only quad core cpu tablet on the market.

Apple makes these idevices for the simple person and of course cuz anything with an i front of the name will sell big bucks.

So keep ur ipads, iphones, itouch and iRons and leave us primes alone.

Go talk about it in the Ipad forum with no roms, no tweaks and nothing fun to do with anything section!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] averroe5:
I'll admit it, I'm a prime owner and I want the "new ipad". I had an ipad 1 for a year and a half before getting the prime and I must say, as much as I love android on my phone, the tablet experience just isn't on par with the ipad when it comes to the quality and quantity of apps for tablet specific devices. Im sure lots of you will rag on me for saying it but I don't care, I said it, I want the new ipad.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
I'm sorry, but sir are you serious, if so are this the best arguments you could come up with?

The camera isn't even tested good, but it would be just as good as the iPhone 4S according to the keynote. Oh, and a 8MP pixel camera doesn't have to be better then a 5MP, I hope you realize that.

Dual core, yes but iOS uses the GPU better then Android does so it has quad core graphics. For iOS this is a better chose then a bad GPU and quad core CPU, while for Android it is opposite.

The Retina display 2048x1536 vs 1280x800 probably isn't a matter for you "because the Prime's screen is fine?".

I will not start about the WiFi, GPS, backlight bleeding issues here from the Prime.

I mean, really I accept it that you love your Prime, but don't talk like it is completely better then the iPad, because it isn't.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] junrider:
As for owners, theyll refer to it as the new ipad or ipad3. But as for apple's branding, I believe they are trying to keep it simple like that of their other product like the macbook air, where the model number will tell consumers which one it is.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
If you were a gamer which would you choose? I love android but I play a lot of games on my Evo 3d and Prime (although much limited in games right now) but I just went on youtube and I didnt realize there are a lot of HD quality rpg games on iOS. As much as I hate apple they got us on games.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjdevega:
LOL didn't mean to thank you.

I would still prefer my Prime. Did you see the kind of games that are coming out for the Tegra 3 Nvidia? You'll start seeing more and more games rolling out soon enough for this wonderful device that is the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JoeyLe:
:D However I don't hope this is accurate, because otherwise it would be a huge fail for Nvidia.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aznmode:
Thanks? thanked you right back lol. I know those games are coming out but its like 1 game a month. Hate waiting....but Im just saying it seems overall ipad in the end will still have more game developed for it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] parker7:
i love the slickness of the ipad2, so the ipad3 will be ace. I won't be buying, it's too restrictive. As a Prime owner, this device has a long way to go before it matches the ipad2, let alone 3. It's got too many faults and stutters, i never experienced that on my mates ipad2. I'm still prefer the Prime, but it's running behind. The sd card and keyboard dock edge it for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjdevega:
They just rolled out several high end games for the Tegra 3 quite recently. We have the first ever Tegra 3 device currently. A lot of tablets coming out this year will have Tegra 3 chip. Its just way to early to judge a product when its in its infancy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Nastrodamous:
all the good about the "new iPad" is negated by the fact that you have to use ios.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jjdevega:
Yup your right ios will still have more developed games but as long as the developers pump out good quality games for the Tegra 3 I'm fine with that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
Ipad will have more games and apps for a long time yet. Fact is it blows away market penetration if android tablets and it will be that way for another year at very least if not indefinitely. I hope android tabs catch on more as I love them but facts are facts. Almost every single person that isn't caught up and in tune in the tech world still refers to every tablet as an ipad. And when you tell them it's not they have to ask how it's different and immediately think it's inferior to ipad. It will be some time until this changes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] OstiasMoscas:
I doubt it. I think we'll have to wait until we see some real world tests, instead of benchmark results and number crunching. If those graphs are true though, then yeah, it'd be impressive.

In the end, it's all up to the developers. All that power won't make a difference if app developers fail to take advantage of it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lyon21:
Seriously? I seen someone posting about a quad core gpu? Are you kidding me? How are you going to argue with that?

The Prime has a TWELVE core GPU! How is a dual core CPU and a quad core GPU better than a quad core CPU and a TWELVE core GPU? A single coreCPU can render pictures smoothly, which is all an iDevice does when swiping through app pages.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hasan10:
The new iPad is one of the better products made by apple. Its frontline features were *actual* features i.e high res screen, upgraded CPU-GPU, etc. and not bs features like iPhone 4s's i.e Siri.

I would buy the iPad the day Apple decides to add the following:

-Some sort of non-Apple HDMI output which can be bought off ebay for $1 (Micro HDMI)

- An operating system that isn't made for total paranoid dumbasses. Its ridiculous how locked iOS is. You can't even download something as little as a PDF onto it.

- Support for extending memory.

I was initially dissapointed by the Prime, but after freeing up the clocks using EzOverclock (from 1.4GHz to 1.6Ghz) I have no regrets. The prime is just amazingly fast on 1.6GHz performance mode, and that is with 9 hours of battery life in web browsing and PDF reading. It is faster than pretty much anything I have put it up against, including the iPad 2. Would be interesting how it does against the new iPad.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
The apple chip has to be a absolute BARE MINIMUM of 3.2x faster to be on par with tegra 3. Prime = .98mp IPAD new = 3.15mp. So assuming these are very scientific numbers, and we all KNOW that marketers wouldn't lie and or bend the truth then yes IPAD new is marginally faster. Now the interesting facts...

My fill rate is 20x better than yours but your Shader performance is 5x better than mine and you have more available frame buffer.

Assuming both can run at 60-72fps which would you choose and why?

500 points to whom ever answers this correctly.

Edit: hurray for google and analytical / logical thinking!

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-57394834-64/what-makes-the-new-ipad-tick-a-peek-inside/

Edit2: while this isn't a knock on the new IPAD, if apple would have waited another 2 months or so they could have had MUCH better battery life or maintained the thinness of the IPAD 2 or even tfp.

Edit 3: just to stir up the fanboi pot, I think jobs would have waited and not made sacrifices in esthetics.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
Not really. There is much more that goes into chip performance than cores. In your lingo, muuuuuuuccchh more, srsly.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] diablosv36:
Still runs the same old IOS that treats you like a kid... no thanks.

The Prime is a more fully featured and functional piece of kit, and have not felt that there is a lack of Apps either to be honest.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yglup:
Yeah, that doesnt sound like its real. Im a software dev and student, so its safe to say that unless Apple got some new tech maybe. But the A5x is nothing but the same cpu as Tegra 3's minus two ( cortex A9) or three cores. Gpu is not Tegra in Ip3 but still its 4 core vs Tegras 12 core geoforce, simply it cant be 4x more powerful.

They never even gave benchmarks and people already are claiming this becuz people believe everything Apple says!

Sucks for them though because Nvidia says they will be buying one on release date just to publicly benchmark them side by side live. Apples cocky attitude just made them another competitor that they def dont want campaigning against them.

They already messed a beneficial relationship with Samsung. When this "Apple" fad passes, theyll be in an unfavorable position judging how they are pissing the their peer companies off.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yglup:
They sell well becuz of Apples marketing and the fact that its really simple tech. Great for that grandfather who still cant hook up a vcr. Ipad and Iphone users basically enjoy someone else doing their thinking on their device.

Basically Apple holds their hands and dictates when they can do this or that. Great for people who are technically incapable, they dont have to make choices or use their heads. Apple handles it for them.

Not saying all Ipad users fall in this catagory, but more likely at least 90%.

Most mac users actually are more tech savvy than the average iphone or ipad user, but are forced to the ipad due to brand loyalty or compatibility reasons.

Just my 2 cents. Oh yeah, i had an iphone as my first true smartphone, i choose Android!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] benefit14snake:
Not trying to be argumentative, but their GPU IS four times more powerfull.......in fill rate. What we don't know is available frame buffer and or shader performance. Remember the biggest difference with tegra 3 is shaded performance, the pretty stuff.

They need four times the fill rate just to get on par due to the resolution diffference. This all changes with the infinity pad 700 though.

Saddest part is their marketing is so good that nvidia is going to buy an IPAD to test it lol.

Android is catching up. Apple had a headstart and have been around longer, so naturally there are more apps. Many apps are available on both platforms but few games have made the crossover.

I would gladly like to fling sh*t at iPad but sorry, the devs and the free market have spoken. Just look at the astounding number of apps for the iPad and the abysmal number of apps for the Android Tablet.

[Motorola Photon 4G] dm36415:
I'm using a stock, unrooted Photon. Yesterday I opened the Market, it closed quickly, and refused to restart. Nothing happened when I selected the icon.

Same issue this morning, so I decided to reboot, and now my Market icon has disappeared, replaced by an icon that looks like a settings icon.

Selecting edit on that icon, it still refers to the Market. When I list my apps, Market is not present.

So now I don't know how to access (or update) my Market app.

Any guidance is appreciated.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sean is here.:
I don't have your device, but with the timing I'd suggest that it might be related to Google Play. Play's Google's new market, there are a few of them... Play Music, Play Books, etc etc etc

Try installing Play from the web interface.

AHA!

Play Market was in my Apps list, problem solved. Thanks for the tip!

A better notification from Google regarding this would have been helpful.

I run through the zergrush rooting process and later installed Checkrom v5, with no problems at all.

Now I want to revert back to stock rom + unroot so I can use Samsung Kies to download new offical firmwares when they are released.

I downloaded N7000XBKK4_N7000OXXKK5_NEE (offical firmware for europe) and installed it though Odin. The phone boots and everything looks ok. The problem is that I'm not sure I've completely unrooted. An app called "Root Checker" said I was not rooted, but Samsung Kies still doesn't want to recognize my device.

I'm afraid to run the zergrush root and unroot again, since this is kinda new to me still.

Could anyone give me some pointers to get my phone to a complete stock state with no root?

Thanks alot in advance!

Hello guys.

Sorry if this is a repost. I am planning to buy a USB OTG adapter from MHL and was wondering if this works with stock rom. I don't want to flash a custom kernel right now.

I am on 4.0.2, everything stock not even rooted. Please help me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matteventu:
With 4.0.2 stock you can only use input USB devices like keyboard, mouse and gamepad.

For pen-drive or hard disk support you need:

- 4.0.2, custom kernel with OTG memory mass support

OR

- 4.0.3 with root

thanks buddy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] costlyman:
Maybe I will wait till google releases 4.0.4 update and then buy it

Not true at all.

USB host works fine on 4.0.2 with the stock kernel. You just need to install Chainfire's StickMount app. I have a USB OTG cable and it works fine with a 32GB memory stick.

I was coping files to my sd card, when the file operation just died in the middle.

I think my card reader died. So I unplugged it and put the sd card back into my phone. It will either never finish "Preparing SD card", come up with "Damaged sd card" and when I format it it does absolutely nothing. Sometimes it will just say "Blank sd card, or unsupported filesystem". I've tried all sorts of formatting tools, both normal and low-level.

* This windows build in one

* HP flash drive formatter

*SD formatter 3.1

* A hex editor and rewriting the bytes with 00.

I've tried formatting on

* My desktop

* My laptop

* My phone

*Camera

*Ps3

Nothing works, I think I'm pretty much out of luck and will just need to buy a new one.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Do you have a Linux distro or a live CD/USB stick? If not you can DL one free at Ubuntu.org once on Ubuntu use the program gparted to repair and format the card, I've saved a few SD cards I thought were toast with it, however your card may end up with a little less space if it has bad/damaged blocks as it will basically skip over them and use the good portion of the card for the new filesystem

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gedster314:
I second using gparted. I have had a few thumb drives and sdcards die over the years. I usually use gparted and if that doesn't work I will go to command and line and zero out the card with dd:

sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc.

You may want to run sudo tail -f /var/log/messages and then plug in the device to see where the card is mounted. I have seen it where gparted does not see the card but it is still accessible from command line.

Be very careful with dd, make sure you are telling it the correct drive. It does not prompt you, once you hit return the damage is done. It will take some time for DD to work, it is writing zeros over the whole drive instead of editing the tables. DD has saved a few drives that no system could access.

I did run across a Samsung 8GB card that was toast. Nothing I can do to fix it. The card had been in countless phones winmo6.5/android/blackberry, OSX , linux and windows. Repartitioned and formatted with ext2/3/4, fat32 and ntfs. It has finally given up the ghost. It was a valiant soldier and will be remembered.
