Generally, no. It is highly unlikely that an AMOLED screen will be used on the D4, and if it is, the screens would likely not be swappable. They are generally proprietary, being that power consumption is different.

The HTC Incredible had two screens released because they ran out of stock, and they were not swappable. I know this is Motorola, but don't count on it. I was disappointed with the screen brightness, then I found out its because the default setting is too dim. You may want to try adjusting it or getting a wisget to adjust it (I use Power Control Plus).
[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:
it's not the brightness i have a problem with, it's the poor quality and the ghosting, i mostly bought this phone because of the 4G and physical keyboard
[Kindle Fire General] Guardsix:
i'm rooted with an excellent HellFire ROM. I'm still on 6.2.2 using the Kindle app as my reader.

I can't seem to get my Kindle Fire Kindle reader app to sync my reading positions with my other devices. In other words, I've read to page 100 on my GNex, and my Transformer Prime, but when I try and sync to the same point in the same book on my KF, it says I'm already at the furthest point. It is showing up on the Amazon web site and I can download/buy books from Amazon using my KF.

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem? Is it because I'm not on 6.3? Also, what triggers an OTA update for the Kindle Fire?

Thanks

Found one of these doesn't have a sum card, from sprint, is there a way unlock phone for use on another provider?
[Epic 4G General] Ceelos09:
This is a CDMA handset, so we don't have a sim slot.

As for flashing to another provided, you can flash this over to MetroPCS, Virgin Mobile, Boost Mobile, and possibly Straight Talk?

Edit: OR you can do the RIGHT thing and return it as everyone has been saying :)
[Epic 4G General] Zeinzu:
Or you can do the god damn decent thing, call Sprint, let them know you found the phone and give them the ESN, and let them get it returned to the owner who's probably not looking forward to having to pay a $100 deductable.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Pay for your phone. Do not steal. Chances are it is blacklisted and useless. Might as well report it and be nice. The only thing you will get out of it is scrap.
[Epic 4G General] GuestK00145:
1-10$ if he/she decides to recycle it ;)
[Epic 4G General] mtwow789:
CDMA so if the owner calls sprint that he or she lost it, it will be blacklisted.

The phone won't be able to be activated over Sprint.

However, you could have it work on other carrier.

Best thing to do is, call the owner and ask for decent 30 ish dollar for doing a good deed.
[Epic 4G General] Zeinzu:
Just wow. I wouldn't ask for anything. Just sayin.
[Epic 4G General] thomasskull666:
I agree, there shouldn't be a bounty for finding a phone. The honorable and wise thing to do would be call Sprint and return it to the original owner.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
AH, but the question is if the original owner already paid his $100 to get a new phone, is Sprint honest and diligent enough to offer that phone back to the owner with a clear ESN?
[Epic 4G General] pvtjoker42:
This..

Most likely the person who "lost" the phone has already coughed up the cash for a replacement, thus the blacklisted ESN. Would Sprint clear the esn and give it back to the owner? I'd say probably not if they've already got the money from them for a replacement.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
so, i lost my phone yesterday...

ill send you a self addressed stamped envelope to send it back in.
[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
Sprint shoud care less. It's an assurion issue and doesn't affect sprint. If you call them and tell them someone returned the phone to you, they should reinstate the esn. I actually had that happen. Of course the guy returned it all dinged up. Probably threw it when he found out he couldn't use it. But they did reinstate it.

The op just sounds like a drain on society.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
I was wondering if the Photon has stereo bluetooth. I recently purchased a bluetooth motorcycle helmet, which is stereo, and when I pair it with my photon, the music and phone calls only come through 1 speaker. Does are photons support stereo headset so it should come through both speakers?
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Its your headset, most likely so its legal or safe to drive with while listening to music. I have a Moto s9 and it plays music through both ears but calls only through one.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ski21:
As far as I know it's not illegal to listen to music. It would be no different then the honda goldwings using speakers on the handle bars. I don't plan on using the phone while riding motorcycle. I actually put it in airplane mode while riding.
[Motorola Photon 4G] w0lf215:
Not saying I agree with why they would do that haha but that's most likely what it is because my Mopho works fine in stereo bluetooth with compatible headsets, only thing I could say is try to google the capabilities of your specific headset, it might not support stereo on some devices?
[Motorola Photon 4G] goaliemn:
In some states its illegal to have headphones on both ears while driving/riding. Speakers on handlebars aren't headphones.

In response, I do have a similar setup on my bike and it does work in stereo, but I disconnected one headset to remain legal in my state.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Deckard79:
I received my Asus Prime on Saturday. My first impressions were excellent, but very, very quickly it became clear how many issues the device has.

Wifi signal is just awful. I have an AEBS and while sat no more than 6 feet away, it can't manage full signal. Instead I end up with between two and three bars.

Actual wifi throughput is unpredictable at best. Sometimes it seems ok, but on a regular basis internet browsing seems ridiculously sluggish for a supposedly powerful device. Flash regularly crashes completely. On a few occasions a minor web site crash has resulted in a complete loss of any wifi throughput and my having to completely reboot the device.

I get zero GPS indoors. I occasionally get 1 or 2 satellite locks while outdoors. GPS is basicially unuseable.

Since the latest update, my wifi uses up as much battery life as the screen. Insane. I'd almost forgive it, if I had a good wifi signal. I do not.

The single speaker is a dreadful design flaw, with an atrocious maximum volume.

Plugging in headphones - you get various bizarre pops and crackles during use. This in a premium device? Really... just not good enough, Asus.

I have a Galaxy S2 phone which uses Android and really like that. I like it because it was designed properly, and it works.

I am not an Apple fanboy. Just a very, very disappointed customer.

This is being returned for a refund.

Just such a shame we don't have a genuine Android tablet competitor. I hope one arrives soon, then maybe I'll give this tablet malarkey another bash.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tempie007:
cool story bro
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MRCANNADY:
Yeah that's too bad that you had a tablet with that many issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Deckard79:
I know... it was a crap story, and I apologise. Just needed to vent my disappointment.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
I came here just to wait for this :)

But seriously Dude, you had bad luck. Wifi and headphone quality are completly fine on mine. Take your prime back and get another one if you like the device. Most primes dont have the issues you describe, except GPS which isnt an official feature of the prime anymore. Its now just a bonus.

Stuff like speaker volume can be fixed with apps.

Or just get the ipad, its magical.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Deckard79:
Presumably the next Prime has been fast-tracked to fix the problems with this one. Hopefully it'll be a success and we'll get the killer device we're all after.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
EVERY electronic device I've used from many companies these days always have at least one issue to deal with, so I doubt it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
I completely agree with you, unfortunately you'll get flamed on here for voicing you disappointment with the device. Not sure why people feel so vexed about people posting negative experiences about the product they paid the same amount of money for.

I've had my prime for about a week now and I'm not entirely happy with my purchase, it just feels like the thing has been shipped out with little to no testing. The Asus software keyboard is a perfect example, it's just unusabe in landscape mode as the keys on the centre of the keyboard are impossible to reach without major strain on your hands and wrists. It has a Swype mode which is laggy, inaccurate and doesn't play well with the screen as your finger doesn't swipe across with ease.

You then have complete system pauses when anything is being written to the /data partition, something my two year old HTC Desire use to suffer from but not my Galaxy Nexus or my Gingerbread driven Galaxy SII.

Web browsing is plagued by "Connection to the server has timed out" messages and if it isn't that I'm getting the "Browser isn't responding message", all of this on web pages that my Galaxy Nexus eats for breakfast. Thankfully I'm not too bothered about GPS and have not tested my units GPS performance and WiFi has been fine but then again, I've only used it around the house and I don't really use Bluetooth.

I love Android, especially ice cream sandwich and my Nexus but Android on tablet just doesn't compare to the iPad experience that I've seen as my housemate has the iPad3. I mean majority of the apps on my Nexus do not have a tablet interface and I do not see this improving. Even pro Android blogs are reporting that developers struggle to make 25% of the income they get from iOS, on Android; it's no wonder they choose to put more resource behind iOS.

I fully expect to be flamed for my opinions, I really want to love the Transformer Prime but I feel disappointment in my purchase. I also really want Android to compete well in the tablet market as I use Google services and love Android on phones, it makes sense to use an Android tablet but it just doesn't offer a great experience right now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
No intention of flaming now.

You cant say the device is bad because of some apps that are preinstalled i think. I mean yeah the keyboard sucks, so i got thumb keyboard and that is awesome. Problem solved.

There are many awesome browsers as well, if you like the stock one but want an improved version just get ICS+ browser its even free in the market :) If you want the fastest one get Opera.

Thats like saying Windows is bad because Internet Explorer sucks. Because you know the first thing you're gonna install is Firefox anyway.

The fact that you can install customized parts of the OS like the keyboard is actually a strength of this device and Android in general. On iOS that is simply not possible, even 3rd party browsers are based on Safari because of the way apple locks up stuff...

And concerning app revenue, its true that devs make less money on the Google play store than with iOS, but they actually do very well with the Amazon app store. But i have to agree, there is room for improvement with alot of apps. Anyway i'm an optimist and things will only get better from here.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] htcplussony:
Not the first time I read the Prime feels slow compared to the Galaxy S II(I got both too) but what ever secret sauce Samsung has, Asus clearly doesn't.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
I've owned Thumb keyboard since owning my Samsung Galaxy SII, so I'm using it now but it's a paid solution that I shouldn't have to rely on or turn to. If the product had been tested enough, the keyboard would have been flagged as being not very ergonomic. All Asus have done is slapped a custom software keyboard onto the device and ticked a box. Someone gets paid to design these products and they're supposed to be professionals with good understanding of when something is good enough for the consumer market. If I can tell that the software keyboard is poor within a week, it should have been picked up in the months of testing this thing should have been through.

In regards to the browser, 3rd party applications are not a solution seeing as I use Chrome on my desktop and this syncs with the stock WebKit browser just fine. Chrome for Android is in beta and doesn't support flash, Opera means I lose my Chrome sync and Firefox is slow unless you use a nightly with native Android UI support and again, I lose my Chrome sync. The WebKit browser in 4.0.2 on my Nexus works completely fine so again, what has Asus done to make it work so poorly on the Transformer? I've tried ICS+ but again, this suffers from the same poor responsiveness on pages like The Verge, unsurprising as it's built off the WebKit source and only really adds features, rather than improving performance.

It's not like saying Windows sucks because of Internet Explorer at all, as I've not said the Prime's downfall is purely due to web browsing. The fact the system comes to a complete halt when applications are being written to /data is also very poor, considering that again, this is something the technically inferior Nexus doesn't suffer from. As per usual, I've mentioned this in another thread and have been told it can be fixed by changing the I/O scheduler but the default scheduler on the Prime is noop, which is the same as the scheduler on the Nexus. Noop and deadline schedulers are also reported to be the best for solid state flash storage too, so not sure what else I would change the scheduler to as it's already set to the best.

I don't even have root anyway as I'm on .21, so it's a moot point anyway.

Yes customisation on Android is great, it's one of the reasons I like the platform apart from being a massive consumer of Google services but third party applications shouldn't be viewed as a way excuse manufacturers releasing devices with inexcusable problems.

Anyway, I'm not exactly short of money so I'll keep the Prime for now as there's noting else Android tablet wise worth switching to. I'll wait until Samsung come out with an Exynos 5 based tablet as both my last two Samsung phones have always been very snappy and hopefully it will also have a metal back like the Tab 7.7.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clouds5:
I hear you, there are some (imho) small things that totally annoy you about the Prime. And they are potential deal breakers for you, thats fine with me.

The prime isnt perfect. I'm not trying to say that. But it has so many awesome aspects and fills most of my needs so good that i'm willing to overlook a 2-3 second lag when i install an application, or the fact that i have to pay 2 bucks or something for a very nice feature filled soft keyboard (Honestly you'd probably use Thumbkeyboard on your Samsung tablet as well or not?). And as you said there is nothing better on the market right now :)

Just a small thing i want to add theverge.com desktop version actually runs better on my prime (ICS+ browser) than on my Desktop PC (PhenomII X4 @3.5ghz, Radeon4870, 4gb ram win7 64bit, Firefox)^^ If i click the middle mouse button to get continuous scrolling it lags on my PC. On the prime its completely smooth. Both systems have adblock and flash/java always enabled.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
I would use Thumb Keyboard if the Samsung keyboard was also poor but I would really love SwiftKey to have a tablet version of their latest version 3 beta. It's very good and using it on my Nexus right now. I actually really like the stock Android keyboard as the voice input is very good, shame it doesn't have a split keyboard layout for tablets.

You're right about the lag and Web browser pauses being relatively small issues, just I was expecting flawless smoothness in these areas seeing as I've had phones with weaker specs and older versions of Android that manage better. I've read Gary is in Cali with nVidia and Google and browsing performance is on the agenda to discuss.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avlon:
The browser freeze/lag is pretty much the only issue left that annoys me on the Prime. I have found that Boat Browser is a huge improvement on the stock browser when it comes to that in the meanwhile.

Hopefully when we get 4.04, this last browser issue will be ironed out.
