[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] B-RiZzY:
So, Asus and I have been going back and forth since December 26th. It started when the charging cable that I received was defective. I simply called them and asked for a replacement, and the troubles started there. It started by them wanting me to pay to send them the cable, because "my warranty only covers one way shipping." That's simply ridiculous, as the product was defective out of the box. I went back and forth with them about that for weeks.

After those two weeks or so (with my charging cable still not replaced), I realized that my Prime had extremely poor wifi and GPS performance, as many others have complained, and my screen was bleeding in two places. Once again, I called Asus and they started to give in and decided to give me a shipping label for my charging cable. I then brought up the poor WIFI, GPS and screen problems, so they told me to send the whole unit in for service.

I sent my Prime in and they had it for two weeks. After those two weeks, it was shipped and I was happy. When I received the Prime again, I noticed a brand new charging cable and charger. I took the Prime out of the box, booted it, and they fixed nothing on the tablet at all. Still poor WIFI, still no GPS and the screen still was bleeding.

I immediately called Asus, they apologized, and sent me a shipping label again. I shipped the tablet out the next morning. The tablet was received and at their repair facility with the status "Waiting on internal advise." That was fine and dandy, until two weeks later it was still at that status. I called them and they told me they escalated my repair, and I would be contacted soon.

A week passed and no one contacted me. I called again, they told me the same thing. So, yesterday I called and threw a fit to both Asus and Best Buy, and Asus had no clue what was going on, and Best Buy told me to get my unrepaired tablet sent back to me and they would handle it. I called Asus once more, and they told me someone tried to contact me and to check my email. I checked my email, and I received this from their corporate office:

I replied that I bought a third party warranty (SquareTrade) and a docking station, both of which were useless at this point, and asked if I would be receiving a refund on those too. An hour later, I received a reply with them saying that I will be refunded for the tablet, the dock, the warranty and any other accessories that were bought for the tablet. I emailed them my proof of purchase about an hour ago, and am waiting for my check.

Needless to say, I won. I absolutely despise Asus now. I have one of their desktops, I love it, and one of their OG Transformers which I've never had a problem with. From now on, I'm staying away from Asus products.

Does anyone have an recommendations as to what tablet should be my next purchase? I want something comparable to the Prime, but I'm staying away from Asus at all costs. I'm in no rush to purchase another tablet, so if anyone knows of anything coming out that would be equal or better, let me know please.

cool story bro

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
I think yours is the first case where Asus voluntarily offered to buy a Prime back. It's odd that they didn't offer to send you a new one; they've done that a couple of times. I wonder if some type of buy back program is part of Gary's "big announcment."

The Acer A510's going up for pre-sale in the next couple of days for $449. It's discussed here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1522707&page=6

NewEgg also has the G-Tab 16GB and 32GB refurbs on sale for $276/361 and it would be a decent tablet to hold you over until later in the year when there are more next-gen choices available. The G-Tab has a great dev community.

The Amazon pre-order link is up but it doesn't give an ETA...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] glazzi:
Really bro, I dont see this as "winning"...

The only thing I want them to do is to give me a working product, I wanted a cool working Android Tablet with Tegra3. If I had wanted the money in my wallet, I wouldn't have bought it.

I am so pissed off, I bought it because I was about to travel to Argentina for a few months, I never thought that I would be here sitting right beside the router to have WiFi or renting cars with GPS units because of the crappy internals. And I have no chance of getting a refund here...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
I wouldn't say he won, but justice has been served at the least.

Here I am with a defective tablet as far as WiFi/GPS goes and while I could try to get a refund for it, I want a tablet in my possession and for the moment, this is the BEST tablet on the market in my eyes. It's just unfortunate that ASUS isn't living up to the quality as a manufacturer that I've previously known them to be.

So while I'm happy with being the owner of MY tablet, I know that's not going to last given ASUS's upcoming products that will place the Prime in certain obsolescence.

At the very least, other owners who are not happy with their Primes are being given the option to review their purchase.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wirelessFREAK:
OP, I'm glad you got your money back, and really appreciate the info

but it's not really winning because of what another commenter said

getting rid of the tablet is not success, getting one that actually works is.

One angle I've been looking at recently, Asus employees have it pretty bad right now. Asus has dumped hastily built hardware in the market, and made their lives much ****tier. That maybe explains the sudden buy back

sent from my 727
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] B-RiZzY:
I figured they haven't offered many people the option of buying back their tablet. I'm happy mine turned out the way it did, honestly. Thank you for the info about the up and coming Acer tablet. I'm just not so sure I'd like an Acer brand product either..

The only thing I wanted in the end was a functioning quad core (at the minimum) tablet and something that I know would last me a while and be happy with. Sadly, I can't get that from Asus. I classify it as winning simply because I can now wash my hands of Asus and get a newer and better tablet when they come out and hopefully deal with a company who can support their product.

Honestly, I'm not happy about the fact that I no longer have a tablet. Though, two months without a tablet and a week or so with one, didn't really make me too attached to it. I am in no rush to get another tablet. I'm going to be playing the waiting game until something that impresses me comes out.

Honestly, I would have settled for a working tablet if I

knew

it would've lasted me a few years. The fact that Asus has about the worst service I've dealt with, I'm happy to wash my hands with them. I'd say I won in that aspect.

[General Questions and Answers] White.Damon:
for now, there is no such thing as bbm on android yet. even the greatest developer among us can never make something like that. it is because bbm is using its own server. so if we want that to happen, google must buy the server or share it with the rim or anything like that. its like the 2 company working together. we will never know when this is going to happen or maybe won't happen at all because all of this are the inside job. all that we can do is just pray that rim will agree to share this feature and make everyone happy :victory:

btw, if you google bbm on androids, there will be a list of sites where offer this feature. believe me that all of these sites are FAKE. it will take you up to another survey site which will cost you your airtime and giving you fake apps back. believe me. :cool:

The only thing i can think of is, i have too many apps backed up. I have 247 user apps that equal 3gb. I don't know, I'm lost on this. I might back them all up on my computer, then start uninstalling them normally. I'll get rid of 50 or so and then use tbu and see if it acts any better.

Have you contacted the developer? Also they have a decent troubleshooting wiki over here that talks about FC's and crashing >> Titanium Backup Wiki

I haven't contacted the dev. I usually don't like to do that because i feel like any dev in general has too much going on anyway. I will check out the wiki you posted. Thanks

Found a fix. I uninstalled tbu, then cleared permissions in su, forced stopped su, rebooted phone, installed tbu again and it started working as normal. So far so good. Thanks guys for the help.

So I finally have everything setup where I can actually root and flash my phone.

I am going to go with Energy ROM. My question is what is the best kernal for that ROM? Faux? What recovery should be used as well?

Also, my phone being a Mobilicity (canada) phone (originally Telus) will I have any issues with any ROM/setup? Or should everything work?

Energy ROM and stock kernel is pretty good already. XBoarder's touch recovery is the newest one out there so I'd recommend that too. Everything should work properly

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
this is my rom at the bottom of the second post is an odin flashable version of it, and instructions on how to install it.

this will flash bootloaders, which if the connection goes sour, is the oly way to hard brick your phone, so while this flash is underway DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING.

after the flash your first screen will say I9000, because you now have I9000 gingerbread bootloaders, and the button combos will have changed:

recovery= vol UP and power

download= vol DOWN and power

Alright. I'm trying to download Tapatalk from the Play Store. Every time I've tried to download it, it is giving me an error. First, it gave me an error, something like "Could not download Tapatalk Forum App" as you have not purchased it yet. Then I cleared the Play Store cache, data, uninstalled updates, and cleared everything again, and now it's giving me the error: "Download of Tapatalk Forum App declined".

Now, I have a good clue as to why it's doing this. I previously downloaded an older version of it from apktop and installed it on my phone and my nook. I'm not proud of it, and this is why I'm buying it now, I'm sick of the guilty conscious every time I use the app. But now that I do want to buy it, I can't! Any ideas anyone?
[Android Apps and Games] pFo-Mac:
I'm not sure why you're having issues with the play store. If it eases your conscience though, Tapatalk is free through getjar. Here's the link:

http://www.getjar.com/mobile/237628...4ymld6hvifbqfomy&c=5v55005as52yb2m813&lang=en

I know it doesn't fund the developer directly, but I imagine they receive some compensation from getjar. Hope this helps.
[Android Apps and Games] kcls:
Is this the latest version? As in the same as on the play store?
[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
had a similar problem recently and the only solution i found - posts on the android newsgroups confirm that - is going back to the old 2.3.x market apk. to do so either "uninstall updates" in manage apps or if your /system/app/Vending.apk is 3.x then you'll have to replace that one with the 2.3.x one.

annoying, yes, but at least that works
[Android Apps and Games] pFo-Mac:
To the best of my knowledge, all apps through getjar receive the same updates as the Play store. It should continue to be updated after installing.

Good info. Thanks for this; I'm sure it'll help many users.
