There are multiple aio's in the development section. Mt's works for my wife's revo w/ win 7. Easy v8 works on my revo. If none work then I suggest trying a different pc.
[LG Revolution] Bait-Fish:
Try the Easy V8 V9 All in One. There has been good feedback with it.

Anyone seeing this on the rear camera? I'm totally stock. I hear an audible click when I activate and deactivate the rear camera.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] speedygonzo:
Yup I have it too... A few other members have the same problem as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
Squeezing the case near the camera appears the temporarily fix the problem.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Olkflx:
Same problem :(:( . Wpgibson's solution works for me but I don't know how much it will last working...

The front camera works perfectly. It is definitely a hardware issue because it did not work even after a full wipe but worked instatly squeezing the case.

Edit: Not working again. I guess i'll have to send it for repair. All the primes have so bad build quality? Will it break in another three months? What should be the best tablet in the market is the worst nightmare. GPS not working, dead pixel, low-range wifi, bluetooth and wifi don't work together and now broken camera. I've never dropped my prime from a height greater than 10cm hand it has broken camera, tough I can drop my phone (happened a lot of times), or even my laptop from a table (happened once) and they won't break.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
Let me know what you do, if you RMA your prime, I'm curious as to how to go about that process.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texstar:
Call Asus tech support. They will give you some specific things to try to get the camera working again. If it doesn't work they can give you a rma. Expect to be without your Prime for 30 days or more if you send it in for camera repair according to a friend of mine who shipped his off last month for the same problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kwazytazz:
+1 I shipped mine off on the 8th of this month, they recieved it on the 12th, and its still in WB5 Status ever since, I called yesterday and they told me that theres nothing they can do to escalate it as its within the 10-14 business day repair.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
What a pain in the ass
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
Just thought I would update this thread. I finally called Asus, got a RMA for the green screen issue, last night, for the rear camera. I'll update as the issue/repair progresses.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
i don't know if the location makes a big differences but in canada it took less then a week from me shipping my tablet out, getting it fix and receiving it back =]
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ThatFool:
Just out of curiousity what is the first 6 numbers/letters of the serial on your guys prime?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] geech72:
This problem arose yesterday for me I have the bcokas. It really is a disgrace that we have to compare serials so that people can know what problem they should expect to see next. I coulda waited a few extra months if Asus had told me that the device wasn't ready for release yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] genuine:
Yesterday I noticed this issue with rear camera too - when I press near the camera, picture gets back, but it only lasts for a second or two.

Sending it today for a repair... btw, mine is BCOKAS.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] quanghuyzzz:
i purchased 1 C3OKAS on march 30, experience this issue after 2 weeks using

sent it for RMA on april 10 then i had a call form asus center last week. when i received it, it got many scratches. i decided to send it back to change the back plate.

i purchased this sh.t, using 2 weeks and then sent for RMA for more than 1 month already. is this worth?

never go for asus anymore...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] genuine:
Did any of you guys who sent it to repair service got an explanation of what was wrong with camera?

Was it some loose connection or did they replace the whole camera part?

Ah, obviously yet another hardware/design flaw... really, I wouldn't be surprised if in a month or two, resistors and transistors start to fall out through the headphone socket...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
this happened to me last week. Waiting til summer to send it in :(

I'm on a C10 model (from mid-february)

It's a GOOD thing I didn't take the unlock route yet!

to OP, can you pls let us know where you sent it? are you in the US?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Same thing here on both our Primes...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kimi_Q:
do you guys use the latest firmware .21?

it should be fixed in .21 theoretically.

if you still have this issue after re-install firmware.

it might be caused by hardware issue.

you should RMA your TF201
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] genuine:
Hm, when one needs to physically press and/or hold the upper part of the tablet just to get camera working again for a while, then I really doubt that the software part has anything to do with it...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
ok, to update, and respond to several questions:

1.) My model is also a BCOKAS model, purchased in late December through BB online.

2.) Its on the .21 firmware, I make sure the OS is up to date on the day they release the OTA's.

- As a side note, I fail to see how a firmware update would rectify a problem that was only fixed by squeezing the front glass and the rear case gently to the left and right sides of the rear camera.

3.) After I called Asus tech support, US toll free number, they gave me an RMA number and sent me two emails, one with the RMA info, and one with FedEx prepaid ground to their repair facility in Grapevine, Texas.

4.) Because I am anal-retentive, I had my wife shoot hi-res DLSR photos of the unit from a variety of angles before we packed it in order to document the pristine condition of the case and screen. Then, I shot video of my wife packing it up. I still had the origial box, which it went into, then that went into a bigger box with bubble wrap and newspaper to add further cushioning. Now, if ASUS repair tries to tell me the unit has customer damage, I'll be seeing them, armed with a lot of evidence.

EDIT:

-- Also, as a side note, I really do NOT expect there to be any issues with the repair or the whole RMA process, I think a lot of the *****ing that trolls through these threads, particularly the issue sthat never seem to get resolved, are largely bogus, and designed to run the "Asus" brand down. I've been pretty happy with the TF201 since I got it, and in fact I got my wife one as a present for passing the Bar exam and getting sworn in, so we have two in the family.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] speedlever:
Bummer. My daughter's tf201 has already been back once for a mobo replacement since she got it in January this year. Now her TFP has developed the green lines of death in the rear camera.

I'm starting to think I lucked out after she refused to swap me for my iPad 1.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chinly43:
I very much hope that you don't experience any issues, but at least some of us definitely have. I've been without my prime for seven weeks waiting on a second repair for this exact issue. Though it only took four weeks the first time.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bbart1968:
Yep same issue here

Sending mine in for repair. Got an RMA from Asus after the 2nd call. They didnt send me the email with the Shipping Label info in it the 1st time.

I was hoping that this was just one of those weird issues but after reading about all the green screens out there... Im thinking that this is a bigger issue then just mine.

Asus didnt troubleshoot anything with my prime after telling them the issue so that tells me that they were aware of the issue when I called.

All I can say is at least they are going to fix it. Id be really pissed of if it was out of warranty. Not sure if I want to get the infinity yet or not. I was going to and give the prime to my girlfriend but with as many problems with this unit... Do I really want to go through it again with the infinity? Time will tell. I do really like the Asus products. More so if they worked flawlessly.....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] georgetoon:
I had this issue. I sent it in for repair. It took a month to get back.

But, it's now working and I also got the GPS dongle, as well.:) So, two birds with one stone. Ended up being worth the wait.:)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
I'm in "Waiting-[WB1] Wait for Material/Spare Parts"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] grilko:
I have the same issue. The camera was working great but a week when i want to use the camera it goes to the green lines. The front camera is working with no problems. I m thinking about sending the prime to the service.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
STATUS UPDATE:

Got an email from ASUS repair this afternoon, my TF201 is on its way back via FedEX. (About a week for the repair time, which ain't too shabby!) :cool:

I'll update on the unit once it arrives.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
:-) So about two weeks to repair after obtaining the RMA?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] giji78:
Hi, Lil-devil,

do you mind telling where you sent you prime to? the address in the states or in Canada?

thx in advan
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wpgibson:
Just stopping by to wrap up the mini-drama of the rear-camera green screen of death.

I got the tablet back last night, it sat at the local FEdEx distribution center over the holiday weekend because it got to the area Friday. So from time of getting the RMA, I won't count the holiday weekend, it took about 2 solid weeks. The repair took Asus about six days, and part of that time was waiting for parts, presumably from Asia.

I fiddled with the unit for several hours last night. Thus far, the repair seems solid, and the repair quality did not impact or imapir any other dimensions of the unit. By that, I mean it doesn't look like the unit got busted in the process of replacing the camera. The unit came back in the same condition that I sent it, except the camera works properly now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nitram_tpr:
Just to add another green camera prime to the list.

I opened a support ticket with Asus, they asked me to do a full hard reset on the device, so I backed everything up and it is still green.

Looks like I'll have to RMA it. I'm on vacation in a weeks time so it'll have to wait till I come back :( don't want to miss watching movies or reading my books.

Thing is my prime is rooted, should I uninstall superuser and titanium backup before I send it in?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
No you should be fine. People have RMAed unlocked primes without issue.

Update on my prime, sent it in last Monday and it comes in this afternoon. Can't wait to get it back!!

EDIT: Prime is back :) camera and mura fixed, but have some pretty crappy light bleed from the edges. lol will send it in again if anything else goes wrong *knock on wood it doesnt!*. send to receive, 12 days for my RMA.

*happy prime owner* :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Olkflx:
My tablet has been a month and some days more in Czech Republic, and now, instead of repairing it, they are offering me a full refund (the tablet is not older than 6 months, otherwise I wouldn't get all the money).

Would you take it and get one of the tablets wich are being released this year?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MegaPantheR18:
Well, I would take it and buy the new iPad(in fact, I don't like Apple products, but I guess it's more stable).

If you like Android and 10 inches(as I do), then you can take a look at Acer A510(which is almost the same to Prime - backside is plastic, by the way), Acer A700 or to wait Asus Transformer Pad Infinity.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lyrictenor1:
C2OK here, and I'm having the same problem; I purchased the unit in February, but this problem didn't arise until May. I have a Square Trade warranty, and am thinking of utilizing that instead of going through the hassle of an RMA and not knowing how long I will be without my tablet...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Random thought, have you guys that have this issue dropped your primes? Mine dropped around the same time as my camera stopped working but I don't remember if it was right before or after I had this issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SoTacMatt:
My camera just stopped working (green screen.)

Actually I only found out because I was trying to use the barcode scanner software.

I will phone Asus in the morning for an RMA. (BCOKAS)

I wiped it before I phoned tonight. Hopefully it will be fast too!

And no, I never ever dropped my tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] speedygonzo:
Just curious, any DIY fixes for this issue yet? Like opening up the Prime?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TinyVest:
I droppped mine and got the green lines, cant remember if the green came after or not...it seems to be showing a static-y green version of my homescreen. Im wondering if I should get the screen fixed before I contact ASUS?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] lil-devil:
just make your life a lot easier and send it in for RMA

its a lot easier... lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] speedygonzo:
Another question.. will it cost any money to RMA the tablet for repairs? Reason being is that I'm only 14 years old and out of money after buying my EVO LTE and Galaxy S 3..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
haha most likely not, unless they determine it's customer induced damage, which you can usually argue your way out of.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] genuine:
Just thought I could drop a little update with my case of green camera issues.

I should be receiving my BCOKAS prime this week (left it in repair center 40 days ago).

This is what they've replaced (as shown on a their status webpage):

- camera

- motherboard

- LCD

- LCD cover

- added GPS dongle (which I'd probably never receive it normal way).

What puzzles me though is why did they replace LCD since my original was excellent (great colors, no light bleeds, dead pixels etc.)...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tshoulihane:
Maybe damaged in the process of repair? Or the technician got carried away and changed it without realising it didn't need it. Less likely is that the LCDs are all being replaced during RMA because there were some sub-standard ones shipped.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nygmam:
Add me to the list, Prime camera went green today :( Going on a trip next week for work and need my Pad, so will have to wait until I get back :rolleyes: Not happy
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jeallen0:
Most likely damages in transit to the repair facility.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] speedlever:
Cost me about $20 for shipping and insurance for this 2nd RMA. I used the packaging from the original RMA return. I didn't see anywhere on the paperwork where Asus was picking up the shipping... but they should pay for it, imo.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Frostbiter:
I just recently started having this problem, although I didn't use the camera much save for when I first got the tablet and then ics. I found that if I push hard enough behind the rear camera, meaning I put my thumbs near the front camera and push toward the back, it fixes itself and stays fixed till I move the prime around to much. I'm probably gonna rma it anyways but if you need to use the camera right away it is a quick fix.

Just don't push to hard and crack your screen or something I'm not responsible if you break your prime or camera more.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skarfreak:
This is my prob atm. Gonna do RMA this week....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skarfreak:
Thats great i guess....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GS_Dan:
Just got the green camera issue last night. Going to have to RMA too...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdudb:
Well, the same thing has happened to me. It did have a very slight bump that was not enough to mark it and 2 days later I noticed the green camera problem so I do not know if they are related. I too could squeeze it into working for a bit but it is now in RMA world and when I chased it I was told that it was waiting for a new IO board and that the camera had been fixed.

I believe that the camera plugs into the mother board so I do not know why the IO board is being changed. I think the IO board is the one with the mico SD slot on it.

It troubles me that the TP is so delicate that a very slight bump could stop the camera working, I will not be able to relax with it as I will always be trying to protect it from the slightest bump.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SoTacMatt:
I got mine back last month. Working great!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skarfreak:
So now can u still unlock? Hope so....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] admartian:
Submitted my TF201 last friday week for an RMA via the shop I purchased it from for this very issue.

Got told today that it was sent back because of the unlocked bootloader. Which is weird because it is a hardware issue.

Does anyone have any alternatives to fixing this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] swatsbiz:
It's just started on my wife's Prime this week, which we bought in January. :(

Contacting ASUS Now
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mightyhawks23:
In the same boat; bought in Jan 2012 and got the green camera this week.

Problem is that I've unlocked mine...

After calling Asus support centre in Australia, they checked the serial # and advised it's out of warranty due to being unlocked

Same thing after emailing them

Seems like I'm not going to be able to get them to fix even though it's a hardware/manufacturing fault with all these other cases as I've unlocked... so are they are DIY fixes out there besides pressing down the on the camera area (doesn't seem to work on mine)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Call back and argue with them. Its a hardware issue unrelated as you said so they should fix it. You will unfortunately lose your unlocked status as a result though. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SoTacMatt:
I have not tried.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] joseguse:
SOLVED!!

Just press the case!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theandies:

Green Camera - a THIRD Time !!!

Argh.. I cannot believe it.. Green rear camera again... a third time. I have already sent it in twice.. :mad:

first time, April 2012, 2nd time October 2012, now here we are February 2013.

and they made me paid to send it in the 2nd time...all within the warranty period.

grrrrrrrr
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Email Tien. He may be able to help you out with the shipping...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sharkfinmoy:
good idea. .thank you .
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sharkfinmoy:
Got them to pay for the shipping both ways.. spoke to a supervisor about replacement or credit towards a new tablet.. No dice.. you would think that after 3 failures they would do something more than tell me they would make a special note that the repair person should make sure the connections were tight.. Oh thanks for telling the tech that they should make sure it is really fixed before returning to customer..a third time!! so frustrating.. ..argh.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
I think tien told me that after three repairs if you need another THEN they'll maybe consider a replacement...with a refurb lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sharkfinmoy:
Oh joy ! Maybe i should hope for a 4th attack of the green camera monster. Nah...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wahaha123:
UUUGGH! I TOO HAZ THE GREEN LINES HARDWARE ISSUE!!! after using the pinching the side of the rear camera for a few days now it no longer works. now it has some pink and im left with a dent from all the pressing. -.- the design asus has done for this, may be good, but the quality and layout sucks. -.-
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] trashprince:
Shocked!!

I think that it totally a failed design, for which almost break down after expiration of the ensurance
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] johnny tsunami:
Me too

I guess I will add myself to the list of people with the Green Screen issue. I do the pinch on the screen and it fixes it while you pinch it, but as soon as I move it, it goes green again. So I bought the extra warranty from staples, and I am just going to trade it in for a different tab. Im also sick of it having the worst wifi problems I have seen on a device.

I finally fix the green camera with this procedure

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BlackDave:
It's not always a bad connection (Edit: By bad connection, I mean connection to the motherboard) that causes it. Sometimes it's the camera module itself.

This guy has the same issue as mine So i ordered a new camera module. I replaced it but I suspect that the one I ordered was defective too since it didn't work at all.

Here is what I noticed. the new camera module did not work at all, squeezing and such did not fix it. So I placed the original one back. The original camera will work if I squeeze. Which make me think that maybe the flex ribbon is just crap. I'm going to try to look around for a different seller and buy a new camera module and replace it. If that doesn't fix it, oh well. It won't be that big of a deal. Don't really need a rear facing camera on my prime.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fayrarri:
Hey guys, so the touchscreen on my shift keeps creating deadspots where if I touch in a certain area it won't register the touch. It is more noticable on AOSP roms, I'm running UKE right now and it also occurs on cm7.1. On sense roms I haven't noticed it but I haven't really used sense roms as much as AOSP. Any thoughts on what the problem could be?
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Try a Sense Rom, and check. Then if that does not work. RUU back to Stock. If you still have the issue, it's time to take it back to Sprint.
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fayrarri:
Well I was on newSense for a while and didn't notice the problem. But the real issue is that it happens very randomly. I can be fine for a week but then it won't work three times in an hour (like right now there was a dead spot on the 'g' key on my keyboard until I turned the screen off and on)
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prboy1969:
Try what I suggested in that order. If you have to RUU, and still have the issue. Then my bet is it's hardware related.

If you can replicate the issues for Sprint that will be good for you, I had the same issue and now every so often either the whole screen will quit working for however long it decides to not work or I'll have the issues where I can't hit a key. I've had the whole screen not work for about 3 days then it magically started again
[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fayrarri:
I've been running newSense and the problem hasn't come back so far, so perhaps my phone just doesn't like AOSP roms lol. Although ever so often on newSense my status bar disappears and the phone becomes laggy, then 30 seconds later it returns and everything goes back to normal
