[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Cothek:
I know there are a few threads on this topic but none have answered my questions or are no longer on topic, so...

What I wanted to know and try to keep track of is what changes are being made to RMA'ed Primes that have the new parts in them and more specifically the Primes that were RMA'ed for Bluetooth/WiFi dropout (because I am having this problem ;)).

I was hoping to get people to post:

1. When you sent your Prime in for RMA.

2. What you sent it in for.

3. When you got it back.

4. Were the problems fixed?

Now I know that this is somewhat subjective but was hoping to hear from others if anything was changing for sure. As of right now I cannot connect BT and WiFi at the same time and am contemplating RMA'ing for the new parts but wanted to see if the new hardware was working from those already with an RMA. So if you guys and gals wouldn't mind sharing I'm hoping to keep ASUS accountable to this and encourage others to get their Primes fixed!

Please keep this thread on topic. We don't need another flame fest about what you want to complain about. We don't need to hear your speculations about what is going to happen either, just what HAS happened.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] opentoe:
I believe the process is so slow or Asus doesn't really have all the correct information you won't see much additional info on this here. I'll probably send mine back this week and it will get lost in the RMA shuffle like my last one did. Yea, my original prime got lost and I was sent a brand new model. Different color, but nontheless a new one. I now have an RMA for the one I received back from my original RMA. One big endless RMA loop. I don't think this is costing Asus much, since it seems they only have 1 or 2 people actually working on this issue. I'm no Apple boy, but I do remember when my ipad2 screen was going bad and even before I sent out my RMA Apple sent me a new ipad2. That's what people pay for.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fenturi:
Still trying to work out my WIFi/BT issue. They have been very slow getting back. I'm not really able to have it sit for months in RMA, I have a 2 month old and use it as a baby monitor when I am home, and showing clients flash designs when I am out.

Would love some help Gary if you can.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SonicTab:
Does the official ICS update have on screen buttons, back , home, etc

or use the device buttons?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue265:
It uses the device buttons. I believe its just the Galaxy Nexus that uses the on screen buttons. Once some custom roms come out based on official ICS update, you can flash the on-screen button. I flashed it on LPH a while ago and had the on-screen buttons if thats what you want. But it feels like you have less screen space since you have device buttons as well as on-screen using that mod.

But to answer your question, the SGS ICS uses device buttons on official build
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SonicTab:
Thanks for the reply.

Rather use the device buttons and have full screen display.

Glad to hear its possible,

read somewhere ICS allowed on screen buttons only, glad that is not the case.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Gary Key, in his unofficial official thread suggested people with that issue try uninstalling chrome, rebooting, uninstalling and reinstalling flash. This seemed to clear up a bunch of stability issues on my end but I'm still waiting to see if most of my issues are gone.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RiotRick:
The xperia s has the shatterproof sheet pre-applied. This seems to somewhat receptive to scratches.

What exactly is the purpose of this sheet? Is it to strengthen the screen, so it won't break so easily if you drop the phone. Or is it just to hold the glass together when it breaks?

If I want to apply a screen protector like a martin fields or brando ultra clear, should I apply if over the shatterproof sheet, or should I remove the shatterproof sheet?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dibdin:
It's there to help protect your display from from getting scratched, damaged etc. If you're thinking of getting your own screen protector, i would certainly remove the shatterproof sheet before putting on your new one. If you dont, the screen MAY end up less responsive.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Roberts56:
I am in the exact same boat. I got my phone last night, been playing with it at work and literally 5 minutes ago I noticed that it already has a sheet on the screen?

But last night after picking up the phone I immediately bought a screen protector on eBay.

Should I keep the sheet on the phone now until its worn and scratched and then replace with the ones I have got on eBay?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Razje:
Yeah I would just keep the original on, and when it's worn out, put a new one on.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RiotRick:
I think I'm gonna do that as well. Just keep it the way it is, until it starts to annoy me. Then I'll take it off and stick a new one on there.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Blagus:
I wouldn't recommend taking it off. I did it on my Play and once the screen gets greasy, some random touches start appearing by just blowing at the screen, so you often have to clean it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dgattenb:
I'm getting an XPs soon ...by for now I have my old desire ... never fitted a screen protector etc...

How many scratches have I got?? None...

Do I have to clean the screen ?.. Yes...

The XPs has strong glass ( gorillia glass MK2 ) sure your get smudges etc, but that adds to the charm !

As long as you have a good lint free cloth you should be fine !!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] awf:
The Xperia S doesn't have gorilla glass, it has glass scratch resistance ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emerica243:
So i picked up a MHL adapter and have been outputting the phone to a monitor. Worked great. Then the only thing i did different in the next few days was installed Francos Kernel Updater, and enabled Hotplug Mod and USB Fast charge.

What happens is you connect the adapter. The screen flashes then goes black. If i turn th screen on or touch it, its fine. But as soon as i stop interacting it goes black?

It used to not to that. any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
Try disabling USB fast charge.

Also, how is the signal where you are? I have heard people encountering issues when there is low signal and extra power is being drawn by the radios to keep a lock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beren28:
Just tested this mysself since I installed the Franco app yesterday.

I have hotplug mod and usb fast charging both on.

MHL worked perfectly for me. None of the issues you describe.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emerica243:
No signal, but i have it plugged in getting charged too, and tried with airplane mode. But like i said, it worked fien first day, only thing i did after that was flash new kernel, and install franco app enable hotplug and fast charge. Only thingi can think of unless its a bag MHL adapter.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emerica243:
Damn, this makes me sad, wonder if my mhl is just faulty?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dario3040:

I was using an OEM MHL adapter at first, and had the same problems you describe, i.e. screen goes black. It was also flaky with my wife's Samsung Skyrocket phone.

I returned the OEM MHL adapter and bought the Samsung adapter; this adapter has worked perfectly, for both Galaxy Nexus and Skyrocket.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikeairj:
Are you using a HDMI > DVI adapter? if so, check this post out. I have similar issue you had. Seems like some people fix it by using a different ROM (I can't confirm that because I'm on stock 4.0.2 ROM) or just accept it and find a monitor/TV with HDMI.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelofhope:
I guess this subject might need some explaining.

My parents are going on a trip in a month and they have there heart set on taking a smartphone with them.

What they need is being able to call, text and mail.

They also want to be able to use it as a backup (just in case) for finding their way. So just in case they get lost to find out where they are on their map or use the gps to guide them for a little while.

So basically, calling, sms, mail and gps.

They don't need to be able to change a lot of settings.

So, I was thinking about installing their (yet to buy) smartphone with a simple home screen and the settigs they would need.

To keep them from accidentally messing anything up, I was wondering if it is possible to password protect settings and stuff.

So, does anyone have an idea on:

-how to protect settings etc.

-a good homescreen

-other things like very simple gps app for example

...

I know it's a lot, but any help is much appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inflim:
Bada? Much easier than android...

But why do you think, they'll mess up settings?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelofhope:
I was just thinking that if they happen to end up in a settings screen or something they don't know,they might press something wrong.

But on the other hand... I just have to tell them to press the home or back button in such an event.

About bada... I feel stupid now,but i didn't know about it.

The reason for android was that I have an android phone and would at least be able to offer some remote assistance if necessary...

I saw the samsung gt s5560 or something today ... That interface lookes rather simple,maybe I should take a look at that.

Thanks already,more ideas are always welcome ;-)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phil.jansen:
'app lock' can password protect apps and settings from being opened. It's free on the market and works well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
I wouldn't password protect settings, that way they can turn GPS on and off as needed without running it constantly.

Google maps/nav should work fine. Set up a simple toggle widget on their screen, I suggest Widgetsoid, but there are others. Tell them what the settings do, or in Widgetsoid turn labels on. Flashing a rom with notification toggles built in would help, since they could directly turn on/off GPS and data without being taken to settings screens.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jr67:
I would also install a launcher that will allow you to lock the home screen so they can't accidentally delete the widgets/shortcuts you've set up for them. Never used it myself but I believe ADW launcher can lock the home screen but there must by others.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowskorch:
I can confirm that adw ex allows you to lock the homsecreen, so nothing can be changed. If you buy a phone with touchwiz, then you can lock settings and use quicktoggles in the notification bar. I can't live without them now. On a side note:widgets could possibly simplify the homsecreen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelofhope:
App lock and ADW are good ideas (I actually use adw on my tablet).GPS widget on home screen can be very usefull too. Thanks for all the sugestions already!

I got a mail yesterday that they have seen some smartphones they seemed to like. I don't really know them myself except that there's only one android phone (if my web search is correct off course)

The phones they saw:

Nokia lumia 710

Nokia lumia 800

(those are WP7.5 I think)

Samsung galaxy+

(only android in the list as far as I could tell)

Samsung galaxy wave III S8600

(This one is BADA I think)

So I might just wait for what they decide to do, a first look at them on the web seemed to sugest that they're all fine for what they're looking for. They all seem to have the possibility to use gps with some (free) maps as a backup and off course sending mail.

[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
Welcome guys.

You've probably come here from [WFSdev][THE S-OFF CAMPAIGN] Kernal experts needed - exploit is being developed! and have a question regarding how the Wildfire S behaves behind the curtain.

Please ask your questions here in order to keep the above topic clean for only development.

I will try to answer as many questions as I can and update the main post in a

[Q] Question?

[A] Answer!

style. As I will sometimes go into detail, the answerd can grow quite long :D

But please ask your questions here, if you feel it is not meant to push development further.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Q] Inside HBOOT, what does the SIMLOCK option do?

[A] SIMLOCK option will disable the Sim-Lock if there is any. Requirement is an HTC Service SIM. That sim probably contains cryptographic keys that make the phone "know" that the Service SIM was inserted. If it was successfully checked the SIM-Lock will be removed.

=== ~~~ === ~~~ ===

[Q] Inside HBOOT, what does the IMAGE CRC do?

[A] CRC-Check will calculate a Checksum using the CRC Algorithm (which is also used by Windows to verify the file integrity). If HTC maybe asks you to post them the CRC values they will be able to see if the phone is completely STOCK or modified. CRC checks are made from: osbl, amss (these are low level OSes), hboot, boot partition, recovery partition, system partition. So they can see at one glance what versions you are running and if something was modified. For example, if you have a ClockworkMod Recovery, the CRC for /recovery will be different from the one of HTC Stock Recovery. Thus they will know your /recovery partition has changed.

=== ~~~ === ~~~ ===

[Q] What is inside the devlog partition and how can it be read and perhaps modified?

[A] It seems to be the kernel ring buffer log. But it probably consists of more. What effect changing or erasing it has is unknown.
[HTC Wildfire S] Wolf Pup:
OK. Here's the first couple of questions. Sorry for the dumbness level.

[Q] What is inside the devlog partition and how can it be read and perhaps modified?

[Q] Inside HBOOT, what do the IMAGE CRC and SIMLOCK options do?

That's all I can think of for now,but I'll have some later.

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:00 PM ----------

Mods please sticky this!!!!!!!!!! Very useful, considering a top Dev runs it.
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
I will have a look at the devlog partition since I never had a reason to watch it :D

edit: this partition surely logs something, but since it is 10 MiB large and not in text format, details are hiding :D

Second question:

SIMLOCK option will disable the Sim-Lock if there is any. Requirement is an HTC Service SIM. That sim probably contains cryptographic keys that make the phone "know" that the Service SIM was inserted. If it was successfully checked the SIM-Lock will be removed.

CRC-Check will calculate a Checksum using the CRC Algorithm (which is also used by Windows to verify the file integrity). If HTC maybe asks you to post them the CRC values they will be able to see if the phone is completely STOCK or modified. CRC checks are made from: osbl, amss (these are low level OSes), hboot, boot partition, recovery partition, system partition. So they can see on one glance what versions you are running and if something was modified. For example, if you have a ClockworkMod Recovery, the CRC for /recovery will be different from the one of HTC Stock Recovery. Thus they will know your /recovery partition has changed.

Go to the CWM recovery and type:

adb shell
dmesg

Devlog partition contains all logs of the kernel ring buffer. Try opening it with any UTF-8 reader, e.g. Lister in Total Commander.

thx, I will add this question to the OP and credit you for the correct answer, if it's okay for you.

[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
Something to note about the simlock, if you turn off your simlock by other means and then try the simlock hboot option it attempts to re apply the lock!

[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
:sly: the DIAG file is short for diagnosis. It is used in conjunction with the xtc clip to produce s-off supercid and sim unlock. Speculation is that it is a HTC Eng hboot that when given the permissions by the HTC "super sim" ( xtc clip flexy cable) it can override the s-on by using its higher privileges to tell the radio to remove the locks. Will only work when

A. The xtc clip is connected

B. The device already has radio s-off.

B would be useful for people with s-off who want sim unlocked ect.
