Who's ROM are you using? Thanks for sharing, too!
[General Topics] thebobp:
Oh please, there are too many good devs to realistically list. Everyone will just say the devs of the rom/kernel they're using.

On that note ;)

CM9 - Too many to list

CM9 Reloaded - rob43

GLaDOS Kernel - Ezekeel

Edit: the CM9 and GLaDOS links are for GSM Galaxy Nexus, please be careful! :)
[General Topics] unicorndust98:
Of course! there are WAAAAYY too many. But there always has to be devs that are know very well, and those who aren't know much, but do great jobs fixing, cooking,and the other things to their ROMs. Thanks for sharing!!

They've announced this a long time ago:

Sorry to be a kill joy, but this isn't anything new

[LG Nitro HD] Epyoch:
they replied to someone before...it's somewhere on these forums...They've replied over and over...

I've even talked to at&t and they said q2 of this year.

The store guy said about a week ago "sometime within the next 30 days" when I had to replace my phone due to bricking it.

That would put it in april sometime...I don't believe any of them considering what they did with the thrill people...promised update 1 month after release, provided update 8 months later.

But it's awesome to hear! Thanks!
[LG Nitro HD] derpalicous:
And they officially announced it in December, with a list. Several websites posted the same information about it about that time of year.

from what I can tell, arCee is doing some amazing work with CM9, from what I am noticing...and if you look at the stats.cyanogenmod.com website you'll notice that there are now 2 people using CM9 for the p930....which means he's got someone else testing...
[LG Nitro HD] stemalo:
It initially supposed to be in march 2012 and then it got pushed to q2.

I REALLY hope that it sticks otherwise this will be my last android (phone and tablet) that is not a NEXUS. Owned Motorola,Samsung and LG and its all the same, wait, wait, wait, excuses, wait

I've been saying this all along. Most people won't be able to tell the difference between HD display and retina display. And most ipad buyers buy the ipad without knowing exactly why.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] alizafar:
Apple are bieist SOBS, When I was watching the IPad 3 keynote I was literally grinding my teeth as they laughed at Android's small flaws (which wernt exactly flaws) and promoted the iPad flawless in comparison compared. This happens every year and this year is no different to apple's routine to demotivate other companies at every keynote!, plus the biggest WTF moment in the whole keynote was when they compared the tegra 3 to the apple A5 and A5X chips and told the tegra to be the lowest one in all of them!!! I mean come on ! A5 was a dual core and Tegra 3 is a quad core plus the 5th ninja core!! WTF APPLE! #$%& you!

[Eee Pad Transformer General] player911:
Well you have your hardcore groups in either. I know people with an iPad 1 that didn't feel compelled to buy a 2... but the jump from 1 to 3 warrants a new purchase. I have a Transformer but didn't rush out for the Prime just because. Mine works great and nothing pushes it to a place where it under performs. Same with any make and model.

Its like console sales. Fanboys always say PS3 is selling more or 360 has the lead.... but eventually everyone who wants one will have one and numbers decline. Putting a bigger processor to run a larger screen resolution cancel out the speed benefits of said quad core. Plus native resolution will look good on any screen designed to run that specific resolution. My transformer has a beautiful screen with great clarity but I'm not running 1920x1200... how can that be!!!!

Super high resolutions are best left for the big dogs (ie PCs). 1280x1024 is plenty for a 10" screen. My 26" LCD PC monitor runs at 1920x1200... overkill for a 10" screen.

The downfall is now your forced to stream higher quality video because 480p will look like total crap when stretched to much. That or play them at their native size which will be super tiny = defeats purpose. Plus iOS is faced with ANOTHER resolution change, and we all know apps don't scale in Apple land... so prepare to purchase all your apps and games for their HD+ editions all over again.

Pass.

Asus TF101 ICS 4.0.3
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
Um, no.

I went through quite a few tablets (including the ipad) before I settled down to the TF101. And when the prime came out, I didn't go and line up for hours/days to buy one on the first day. I still don't have a prime even though I've been thinking of upgrading. I just haven't found a good reason to upgrade yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] chatch15117:
i think apple needs to realize that a 4:3 resolution is NOT FOR MOVIES, NOT FOR WEBSITES

they should have gone with 2048x1280 for 16:10 res. 2048x1152 is just too thin(16:9, as in dell's SP2309W that is 2048x1152)

still though 1920x1200 is plenty for a 10 inch screen.

---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 AM ----------

i bet they asked some old people if they could tell the difference between 250ppi and 132ppi

for the record TF101 is at 150ppi. i think 200 is the sweet spot
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Um, yes. Maybe not you personally and i never say you. I'm just saying the majority of the consumers out there. you think the majority of Android users will even know what tegra2 is of you ask them. LOL
[Eee Pad Transformer General] scottyf79:
either ive converted a few people in our area or the Ipad3 just didnt do it for them.........

We took 4 paid pre orders on Thursday (yes only 4) - sold around the same amount again on the

launch day, and maybe a few more than that yesterday......so out of just over 40 we had around half still in stock left,

Think we sold more Ipad2 tbh. We had them side by side with the inpregnated Apple demo photos on the screen and although to some the difference was clear, others didnt see alot in it......infact the majority said "which ones the new one?".......and the ipad2 photos were taken in over cast conditions which showed the ipad3s sunny snaps up better (hmmm)

Ipad2 launch was carnage and was sold out in under half an hour - including main warehouse.

Personally the screen and camera to me are definately much improved.....didnt see much speed difference. Think id be disapointed going from a 2 to a 3 though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
The disingenuous part of the speech was where he explains why the iPad will never be beaten by Android tablets: He proceeds to show two apps, for each app he shows the the Android version which looks like a stretched/scaled phone app and then he shows the iOS version which look like HC/ICS tablet apps.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

There's several problems with this:

A) If this is his justification for that statement,

his justification is a joke

.

B) His team handpicked the two

worst

apps to make his point. It's like claiming you're the strongest in the village and beating up a toddler to prove it. If he wanted to do a fair comparison he should have compared the iOS YouTube app to the Android HC/ICS YouTube app because the YouTube app (and other apps like the G-Mail app) on HC/ICS showcases the new ActionBar and Fragment classes Google introduced from HC onward.

He took the two worst apps that didn't utilize these classes and of course as a result they looked like **** compared to the iOS versions. His justification = a big LOL.

Here's a picture diagram of the YouTube app on both Android and iOS and you'll see they're very similar and if he had shown this it would have deflated his weak punchline. Each fragment (in red/blue) can hold what used to be separate activities so you can see multiple activities on the screen at once on the extra real estate of a tablet screen. The menu is no longer hidden by a hardware or software button. It's proudly displayed on the top as an Options Menu on the ActionBar for crucial options and the rest or what won't fit goes in the overflow menu (green).

Are the ipad 3's suffering from random reboot issues? We can laugh at them all we want, and but at least they have working devices!

Sent from my HP Touchpad running ICS
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
I'm still puzzled by this random reboot thing that's supposedly plaguing the TF101's out there. None of the 15 TF's we have have random reboots. They all go into deep sleep just fine. I haven't charged my TF since Thursday. It goes into deep sleep almost immediately after the screen is turned off.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Your 15 tf's might be all good but the FACT is the random reboot problem exist. It's posted all over this and other forums.

Personally i dont suffer from this random reboot but I'm not going to pretend ALL TF are like mine.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eminembdg:
Lol! Nice...but very weak dig at Android!

You're right though. Apple devices are perfect . I mean I've never seen my friend shake the thing all over trying to get the screen to "auto " rotate. Or whine when when I plug my Android device in to a computer it just connects and doesn't have to sync every time.

Point is : there are little annoyances on every platform. If you're going to try yo down Android to speak nicely of ipud, at least try harder

PS : aren't you in the wrong forum if you're bah bah bahhhhing for the ipud? Lol

[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
I've got three android devices, two ios devices and one webos device. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, but there's no doubt that the ios devices are better built and offer a better user experience.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dreadmador:
Yes, because obviously aluminum is better than modern plastics, right? It's shinier, so it's got to be better!

I bet if you had to take a bullet and you had the option of wearing a vest with either a steel or kevlar plate, you'd choose the steel plate "because it feels heavier". Yep, that's pretty much the average Apple consumer's rationale.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] horndroid:
User experience would depend on the user.

I had an ipad2. I gave it to my mother after I got my TF.

I am getting better user experience out of my TF. Why? Because of the freedom and almost PC-like functionality of Android.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tweaked:
My grandmother agrees with you.

IOS is locked down, terrible looking, hard to use for web, noob fodder. I liked IOS better then cupcake, but everything after is hands down a better user experience. My opinion of course.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] karlr30:
I totally agree with you goodintentions, it's a big no...

There is no sheep factor.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ill1:
It's all perception

It matters little if the display is better on the new ipad vs the old or other tablets. Because what Apple understands that Google along with other Android tablet makers don't is perception. Google to my knowledge has never advertised heavily an android tablet. I think I seen like one Xoom commercial back when it first came out. But the ipad along with other Apple products are in movies TV shows etc. So the public perception is this is THE tablet to have. The ipad is marketed as almost an fashion item, it's apart of the culture. Last weeks episode of the House of Lies has a scene with the transformer in it that was the first time I'd ever seen it on TV.

Android tablets aren't marketed as must have items, so people don't see them as must have, but they constantly see the ipad.

I think Android tablets are eating into ipad's market share more than Apple likes oe they wouldn't bring it up. Also I think if the Prime had a better launch and ICS on it was rock solid with a good number of quality apps this whole conversation would very different. Just my opinion tho.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
Don't shoot the messenger guys. There's a reason why hundreds of people line up to get ipads. You may not like it, but it works for a LOT of users.

I won my ipad 2. Didn't pay a cent for it. It fell from my lap and got a dent on its side. Apple sent me a new unit. This is all part of the package with "user experience ".

With Asus, I had to send back my Transformer for defective speakers a few weeks after getting it. I had to pay to ship it to them and had to provide my own packaging. It came back over a week later with bad light bleed, and they asked me to send it back again at my expense. Then they admit that early docks have battery drain issues and said I could send it back for repair at my expense again. At what point does this tablet become an "expensive tablet"?

HP was insanely impressive when I had to send back my $150 Touchpad for a case defect. No charge shipping either way, they even sent me a box! When I received my replacement, it too had a problem, so they overnighted me another one... Free of charge. I always had a unit at hand before sending the other in. It did not disrupt my life.

User experience is way more than a customizable UI.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ill1:
I can agree with this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ssl123:
Not all experiences end that way. My friend took a broken iPad to the Apple Store, and they couldn't do anything for him except offer to sell him a refurb. It was a cracked screen.

With non-Apple devices, consider taking some of the $100+ you save and spending it on an extended warranty that covers any user damage. The reason Apple can replace some damaged devices is because they charge everyone the extra money. They also make money on the apps you buy, which is not something Android vendors, aside from Google and Amazon, can do, though some continue to try. Can't buy razorblades if your shaver is broken, right?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brlowe:
I have 2 TF101's an Ipad 1 and now a new Ipad. I bought the first TF101 for myself and wanted it to be perfect. But it failed. I have 3 things I use my tablet for that I want it to do well. I use Zinio for reading magazine. I use them for power points and to read PDF's. Sure the TF101 will do all those but it is no were near as good as the Ipad. On the Ipad if you import a powerpoint with animations it imports them and they function good. Sometimes you need to fix them a little. In edit mode I can jump from screen to screen fast. On the TF101 all animations are stripped out and I tried every office app I could find. I must have spent $40 on different apps and always the same results. Plus in edit mode it is very slow to move from one screen to the other, sometimes painfully slow.

Zinio is just plain smooth on the ipad and on my TF101 it is not smooth, even when I'm overclocked to 1.5.

PDF's are crazy slow on the TF101 were they are super smooth on the IPAD.

Now things I like about my TF101. I'm a hobbiest photographer and take lots of pics while on trips. I can take my TF and no laptop with me and I can use the keyboard doc to transfer pics to a usb drive and other storage devices. This I cannot do yet on my Ipad but I'm at Seagate drive to solve that problem.

I like being able to make my desktop or home page look however I want and this cannot be done on an IOS device. I really love widgets and mis those on my Ipad.

So if my Android could have done the powerpoints the way I needed, worked better with PDF's and just been smoother in many places I do not think I would have gone back to an Ipad.

I can tell you this, my new ipad loads web pages crazy fast and it is super smooth for scrolling. I have only had it 3 days and I have already done my first powerpoint on it and it was great. An my first PDF looked and worked great.

Sorry guys but in my experiance the Ipad just works and it works well.

My TF101 is going to get a new rom flashed on it maybe back to HC to make it work better. I'm really unhappy with the ICS that Asus released. twice in the last week I have woke up in the middle of the night and it is in some kind of boot loop for no reason. The last time it happened I had done a factory reset on it that night and loaded no programs and it was doing this. Sorry but Asus is screwing up right now.

I sure hope they fix things.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] ill1:
I understand what your saying I came to Android from the first iphone that was given me, I thought it was the best phone ever. My brother had the motorola droid and I saw how easy it was for him to transfer music from the computer to his phone while I had to do everything through itunes. I strongly dislike itunes, I find it to be the least intuitive program I have ever used. I also think it wierd you have to hook the ipad to itunes to get it to work initially or to load anything on or off it. So once I got an EVO I never looked back. I'd like to have apps like flipboard, but having to do everything through itunes isn't worth it. I'm too used to my usb ports and user expandable storage that everyone always says "don't matter" There are QC, developer, and update roll out issues that Google needs to fix soon or Android tablets will continue struggling to sale.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ssl123:
FYI, RepliGo Reader is the fastest PDF reader on Android. EzPDF is not bad either, but RepliGo is faster.

I really hate these kinds of threads. I always try to keep it reasonable when I participate, but come on: the iTunes requirement sucks. The feeling of not being in control also sucks, which is why I had to jailbreak mine when I had it. On Android, I have taken control from my hosts file to a whitelisting firewall. I have set up countless ways of getting my files onto the device. I have filemanagers that get me direct access to those files as well as to the system files themselves. I have set up ways to easily share those files, any files, with others. I can sideload whatever I want. The list goes on and on. I am in control of Android, not the other way around.

I am not going to say that iPads suck. They fit a certain user type. I don't happen to be that user type.

Also, if you share out a sample PPT, I can help check out some office products for you.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goodintentions:
You misunderstand me. I didn't say I don't believe it exists. On the contrary, I have no doubt that it exists. I'm just puzzled why it exists at all and why none of our 15 TFs have random reboots if it's such a wide spread problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oldcpu:
some questions on your 15

That's pretty good not to have experienced this reboot on 15. It could be you did something systemic to minimize the occurrence.

I note thus far, everyone of my reboots have been when the Transformer was 'sleeping' with its black power down mode in effect, meaning I could only observe the reboot after I started to use it again. Hence impact minimal, but an annoyance never the less.

Some questions ... are they all on a WLAN ? WPA encryption ?

What was your ICS update technique ? Did you restore factory default before the update ? Remove any external SD cards ?

Are they all the same TF101 variant ? (mine is a B70 and it is experiencing reboots , ... I did not restore factory default before updating to ICS).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brlowe:
Here is a link to a website I download Sunday School lessons from. Near the top you will find the download for the PPT file and a PDF version. The PPT has animations that you see when you run the powerpoint. On mt TF they just show the whole slide at once and when in edit mode it is very slow to refresh and move from slide to slide. Try to jump from slide 5 to 15 lets say and you will see.

http://www.sugardoodle.net/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=7936&Itemid=200023

On that page you will also see the pdf version of the powerpoint and this will work but it too is very slow to refresh and or load. It can be painfully slow depending on the PDF. In both my ipads these load fast and you do not have to wait for it to refresh.

I would have to say these are my biggest complaints about my TF101.

Yes has everyone says I too do not like Itunes. I hate the way it manages my music. As far as using it with my Ipad the only things I do are backups and updates with it. I really do not load music on my Ipad, I use my phone for music which by the way is an HTC EVO.

The only other thing I do in Itunes it load pictures to my Ipad. I have an export setup in Lightroom that moves selected pictures to a folder that Itunes monitors and syncs to my Ipad when I want them. On my TF I use the same folder and export but I have to manually copy them to the SDcard.

Like I said before I like the TF101 but I just needed it to work better.

I just viewed the ppt in Kingsoft office. It shows transition effects from slide to slide, and in edit you jump instantly from slide to slide using the thumbnails on the left hand border. I use ezpdf and the Kindle app for pdfs and they both work well for me. Hope this is of help if you want to try an Apple alternative. I cant stand iTunes either btw.
