[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davyphil:
Yes that was the one and only time I will ever encrypt. What a terrible idea. :)

The tablet is back to working order. Only complaint is that recovery will still say unable to mount data. I have cyanogen mod 9 on it right now. I think I'm going to flash the Asus .29 like u said above. The whole purpose of rooting was so that I could install Ubuntu but I'm not sure that I want to mess with that right now.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
Yeah if you manual update to WW .29 it should rewrite everything back to standard so just clear any partition errors. Not sure why they are coming up but Stock ROM is safe until things get a little easier with flashing.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilentStormer:
Hey, i didn't brick mine but I did have a problem getting it to mount;

The transformer tablets are huge power-suckers which is the reason it has the big proprietary port on the bottom. this is nice because we get fast charge times but it can limit what you can charge the device with.

anyways I was trying to get my TF300 to mount so I could flash CWM but it wouldn't, i didn't know what was wrong until I heard about the TF300's big power consumption and then I figured it out. I was plugging my TF300 into one of the ports on the front of my (desktop) PC. Those are the ones that aren't directly mounted to the mother-board and so they don't output as much power. I plugged my tab into one of the ports on the back which I knew was attached to the mobo, and then it worked. So my recommendation; try plugging the tablet into different ports on your PC, maybe you'll find a powered one.

hope it helps.

EDIT: oops little late on this one ;P

glad you could get your tab to work again!

I am trying to flash WW .29 right now and it stops midway. I thought I was being impatient so I let it sit for an hour and no progress.

I am using TWRP as CWM irritated me with the no sdcard issue. Now I am flashing from internal memory with TWRP
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
So ww .29 and reading internal SD card now?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davyphil:
nope. stock rom refuses to go on. I am in the US so im gong to try the US .29

I can flash CM9 and everything is working there. Doesnt make sense that the stock rom wont work.

And yes, the internal sdcard is working. Still cant flash anything from external sdcard. Does the recovery for the TF not support this?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
In recovery you could try wiping everything, booting back up and trying the manual update.

---------- Post added at 11:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 PM ----------

No external sd card support for cmw or twrp
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davyphil:
US .29 is doing the same thing. It just hangs at installing update.

I really thought this would be painless. I guess I will have to stick to CM9 for now.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Northern-Loop:
Oh well at least its booting and working, CM9 will only get better over the next few weeks/months
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davyphil:
I am more than happy with a booting and working device :)

Thank you for all of your help

Oh and one last question. Is rom manager working well with the TF300? This would be the only reason to switch back to CWM recovery.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davyphil:
Is there any other ideas on how to fix this? I tried to update CM a few months ago and ended up back at square one.
[General Questions and Answers] darknecro98:
I've been using a task killer and easy battery saver for a while and I've been asking myself this one question. Does it do any harm to your phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Thing O Doom:
Harm? I woudn't say so, if you're not messing root with processor voltages or anything, you should be fine hardware wise. You may accidentally corrupt some saves if something gets killed while saving, but nothing to the point of major damage. I use ES task manager with root and works like a charm, no problems.
[General Questions and Answers] Allanitomwesh:
Task killer = bad

Battery saver = depends

When you task kill it doesn't make your phone faster, it just stops everything, including the launcher and the battery saver. Battery gets guzzled setting things back to normal.Optimize RAM use instead.

[General Questions and Answers] spookyneo:
Watchdog

When I first began to use Android, I downloaded a Task Killer. I don't remember the app, but it was one of the most popular Task Killer on the Market.

After reading few articles, I decided to stop using Task Killers, as they can mess with the stability of the OS. It does make sense...

Because I wanted to keep an eye on my apps behavior, I downloaded Watchdog, which is a monitoring app to monitor the CPU usage of each app. Therefore, you can set a threashold and decide when Watchdog warns you that a certain app is using a lot of CPU resources. Keep in mind that an app that consumes a lot of CPU will most likely consume battery power and therefore reduce the battery %.

This is where I discovered that Facebook for Android was a crappy app that was always using CPU resources ... and to be honest, I saved about 10% per day after uninstalling Facebook for Android.

So for me, Watchdog. I started using it on Gingerbread...then moved to ICS and still working properly.
[General Questions and Answers] Lither:
Task Killers are bad, don't use them
[General Questions and Answers] redoregon:
If you mean physical harm, no. If you mean logical harm (corrupting software), unlikely. If you mean harm in the sense of screwing up the phone's own innate ability to monitor processes and kill them off itself as needed, yes. With rare exceptions, results you see will be placebo effect. In some extreme cases, you'll even screw your battery life if a POS task killer keeps killing tasks that *need* to run, forcing the phone to keep restarting them.

your evo has a mirror app built in. its hidden. I used minimalistic txt, add new widget --> minimalistic text--> click on "start another activity" --> then press on "select an activity or shortcut" --> then scroll down to "camera" and the second choice is "mirror".

that'll give you a link to the mirror app.

I've done this and found polaris office, soundhound, pdf, all kinds of hidden apps and settings already installed on this phone. no idea why they shipped it with so much hidden. let us know what else you find!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] darkfire23:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mswlogo:
Try using the Screen Shutter button instead of the dedicated button. I consistently got sharper pics on EVO 3D when I did this.

Also try manually bumping up ISO instead of AUTO. I think AUTO encourages too slow a shutter speed.

Warning on White Balance. What you see on the screen is not what you get before you take the shot. This is a bug IMHO. Always try to get White Balance right. It can really make the a big difference in your photos. Auto tends work badly indoors with any kind of light. Outdoors Auto usually works good. If you get it wrong your photos will be slightly blue or slightly yellow (and sometimes slightly green).

Updated Skyrocket to SKYICS 4.2E-8 (ULCE2), using Apex launcher, tried normal gallery, quickpic, zmods folder gallery2 apk, nothing has solved the problem so far.

When selecting an image to set as Home screen wallpaper I can no longer resize the selection to fit 960*800 pics to use for wallpaper scrolling. The wallpaper itself will scroll once selected but is zoomed in to portrait.

Resize worked fine on SKYICS base 2 update 7 but no longer.

Are you on the stock ROM? Are you rooted? Did you flash anything to the phone or change the ROM, Kernel, or modem? If you haven't done any of this, I would try the new SIM card. If that doesn't work, exchange the phone. If you have done something, try going back to stock and see if it resolves the issue. Alot of times it comes down to the modem / radio being mismatched to a ROM or Kernel.

2 Possible Solutions(Easy Fix)

1, wait out the data outage in your area. We are on ATT and having the same exact issue and when I called 611(Customer Service) the automated answering system told me that they are currently experiencing data outages in my area. could be due to a tower/service upgrade being that 4G is coming out in more areas now.

2, call 611 and set up your phone model with the customer service rep at the technical support extension.

I would put a 3rd option... but I haven't tried flashing a new rom yet, I just got the Skyrocket as a free refurb from Insurance and I am currently on an unrooted stock GB ROM. :eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Killadude:

Wave Control uses the proximity sensor to detect hand gestures to control music playback (free version) and more (paid version).

Update (10/11/2012): Half of proceeds from app sales from October will be donated to Breast Cancer Research

More Info Here

Update (9/7/2012): New Tasker Support for changing profiles in Wave Control!

Update (31/08/2012): Jelly Bean users are getting force closes in the Play Store app when navigating to Wave Control -- The free version's apk is available to download on this post. Please if it's working for you in Play Store download from there.. I need the install count ;)

I developed this on the Note and luckily it happens to have one of the best proximity sensors (at least for my uses). Works best on the Note and Galaxy Nexus. Not so great on HTC phones and SGSII due to their particular sensors (much slower).

There are 4 basic gestures:

-Hover

-1 Wave

-2 Waves

-3 Waves

By default they correspond to Play/Pause, Next, Previous, Enable/Disable Controls respectively.

In the Pro version, they can be remapped to any of those plus: Turn Screen On, Volume Up, Volume Down, Launch Google Voice Search, Alt Play/Pause (for MX Video Player), and do nothing.

Popular uses are:

When driving, don't have to take your eyes off the road to try to hit a button

When your hands are dirty so you don't smear crap all over your phone like when cooking or working on car

While on the computer, you don't have to bother waking the phone to change the song (works even when the screen is off)

I'd like to see what you guys think of it. If you have any suggestions for new features or any feedback, I'd love to hear it.

I've got an identical post in the Galaxy Note forum. I'm limiting the call for feedback to these two devices for now since they have the most responsive sensor.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DirgeExtinction:
Holy crap, this is awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Meep70:
Looks good, so far. I already paid for it, in support of where I think it might go. It would be interesting to see the ability to launch other apps besides Voice Search, chosen by the user, rather than hard coded. This would open up lots of possibilities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kickr:
I think this would not work in the night or in dark rooms?! ;)

Otherwise this is really cool!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarksThinkTank:
Yeah been rolling this idea around for some time. I've been kind of lazy about implementing it. I think I'll start coding it up to include in the next update unless a bug pops up first.

Thanks for the support!

If I used just the light sensor then, yeah it would have that limitation. The proximity sensor (on the same chip) uses an IR LED to light up the near object and the light sensor to detect the IR reflection.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pat123:
Hows the battery usage of the app? I am presuming that app is always running in the background polling for some action in the proximity sensor.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarksThinkTank:
For me, it's been a little under what the music player uses. The system broadcasts on state changes of the sensor so I don't have to poll. Which is quite nice.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zombioptic:
This is phenomenal. I like the potential!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
I'm a little concerned about the battery life implications of this app. OP mentions that the app works even when the screen is off. Does this mean that a constant wakelock is maintained at all times which prevents the device from going into deep sleep?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 15israellai:
I was thinking the exact same thing too. Awesome, but potentially a battery drain.

Blazing on my Nexus Prime using xda premium
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarksThinkTank:
Yeah, it holds a Partial Wakelock.

If someone knows how to still receive state changes from the proximity sensor without a Partial Wakelock, please let me know!

I'm always looking for ways to make the app for energy efficient. Working with the screen off saves a lot of battery since the screen is usually the biggest consumer of power.

If you want to know for sure how much battery it uses, just try it out. If it uses more battery than you feel is acceptable for the functionality, stop using it. It's not something to leave running in the background indefinitely.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chinoquezada:
I would love a sensitivity toggle. For me, the response time seems slow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
it doesn't have to be that way. Why not give the user an option to disable the wake lock so that the app works only when the screen is on?

Also, can you explain the Pocket mode and the "Headphones unplug exit" options? I read the description about Pocket mode but I'm not sure I understand: Is a false positive 3 wave gesture so common that there needs to be workaround for it? Furthurmore, when does the app need to be in front? If the screen is on but the app is in background, chances are the user is actually using the phone.
