well developement section of HTC tegra3 One X forum would say otherwise. Developement has blown up for that device. it may have issues but surely is still a very popular device. As long as xda developers show the love, its all the love that's needed.

they got so many roms/kernels/etc..it ain't even funny. take a quick peek over at their developement section and its plain as day. This is where some of the newest/latest in prime I/O improvements are coming from. Motleys new kernel with updated mmc drivers and all show THST the I/O issue was mostly a software/driver one. The I/O read/write speeds(internal, dock SD card) he is pulling with his new kernel is among the best out there now.

As long as developers show interest in a device, it will be made better. As proven in One X & prime forum. developers here solved most of the initial One X issues. Prime is on the same track now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moist:
So, like i had said in that MRCANNADY's thread. It's got nothing to do with the apps we are running. Let the developers that have ACTUAL information give ASUS advice. They don't need the list programs we're running. Instead I got threatened and told off. Seeing that most of the people here are ASUS fanboys, and will stick to asus, i definitely won't be buying ASUS again.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
It may be a popular device with devs.... but it isn't exactly a popular device overall.

http://www.t3.com/news/nokia-lumia-900-outselling-htc-one-x-report-claims

That's in may.... of course... I'm sure it has changed dramatically by now due to W8 announcement...

but even in may.... Lumia 900 was outselling HTC One X. HTC is supposedly creating another Flagship phone using Krait quad-core.....

http://androidandme.com/2012/06/sma...uad-core-qualcomm-s4-powered-flagship-device/

So yea, it means you need more than just xda "dev" support. Plus, smartphone sectors always had more "dev" support over tablets in general.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
One of my concerns at the moment (and something I PMd Gary about) is that fact that the Prime is losing software support because of its issues.

It's bad enough that end users are suffering freezes etc, but some top-tier titles that used to be available on Prime are now showing as "incompatible" in the Play store. Basically this tells me developers are pulling support for the platform. Kinda sucks to have this happening to their flagship tablet.

And the fact that they're moving ahead with beta testing .28.5 instead of a more recent beta (which Gary mentioned in his last post) tells me they hoped a new release would fix more issues but has been found not to. So, I'm not expecting any miracle fixes from Asus any time soon. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fsured:
I think you have hit a point that didn't really dawn me seeknom. We all know Android is like the bastard step child to IOS and app developers give IOS their priority (well maybe not all it but it sure feels that way). Just to toss a bone to us they make Android versions but the quality of the product isn't the same. Updates and features in my experience hit IOS with Android lagging.

This is may be blamed on Asus, Nvidia, and Google. Asus designed the final product and features that are in it. Nvidia built the chipset and cpu. Google allowed their OS to be free and now fragmentation has set in bad.

I was talking with a friend over the weekend and wanted to visit an apple store to check out the Ipad2. Not because I like Apple, I rather detest what they have become to the world, but their products just work. The apps have polished UI, more games, and developers won't abandon IOS because it has the vast number of users with identical systems.

Android has Asus, Samsung, Toshiba, Sony, Acer, and a ton more of cheaper devices from probably dozens of manufactures. All of them have different hardware which require the different coding and drivers and to top it off their own UI "enhancements". I've never written code but it may make me pull my hair out to try and do it so it can run on a basic level and be used by at least the more popular tablets.

..........

The main topic of this thread seems to be lost though. As many have said, a discount won't happen. We would probably have to mail our tablets into Asus, with whatever the price difference is. They would then test each unit for defects that are made by the consumer which they may use to deny credit. Then what would they do with people who unlocked their units? Will they take those in for credit or only those unmodified systems? That opens up a whole new can of worms when they say you damaged your tablet and won't get a credit for it. How would the offer it anyway? Mail in rebate with the returned prime and you get a check/debit card in the mail?

In the end the Prime does work but it is not ideal for each persons needs. We bought it and many did so after reading about the issues it was having, its your own tablet now. You can't return a car 2 months later because you don't like the way it drives anymore or has a rattle. The dealer will do what it can to fix your concerns but its yours. These units have problems and Asus is trying to solve them. It would make Gary and Tien's life easier if they could just offer everyone refunds, credits, or exchanges.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] monkey10120:
I wish they would have a discount.

But I might be going to the a700. Cheaper, better build quality and most likely will not have all the issue my prime does. I loved my a500 and wish I didn't sell it. The only down side is it has no usb port which is a must for me. The a700 is $449 for 32gb or $600 for 32 for the tf700. The storage was the only thing going for the prime when it was released.

I will continue to buy gfx cards from asus but thats all for now. No support means no buy.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] YoMarK:
I've read multiple revieuws on the S3 vs the One X and sometimes the S3 wins(I/o performance) and sometimes it is the other way around.

The point is the One X performes very well with a tegra3, and so can the Prime if the MMC driver issues are fixed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ilostmypistons:
Compared to the S3 forum/development its a joke
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shinzz:
I actually haven't seen that either. In multiple review & comparison videos... S3 flat out beats both version of HTC One X in I/O performance. Most weren't even that close.....

Btw, I'm not saying HTC One X (Tegra 3) has I/O issues...

Which is the troubling part for me...

For example:

T version (tablet version of Tegra 3) does adequate job in battery life performance but performs poorly on I/O benchmark.

AP 33 (phone version of Tegra 3 inside HTC One X) performs well in I/O performance benchmark but performs poorly in battery life.

Both are based on overall Tegra 3 architecture but we clearly see discrepancies in performance between the two SoC (although, they also share many flaws/issues).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jcoleridge:
I think this would be great for asus. after the half failure of the prime, it would be a very strong signal to the market and all consumers: they would renew their reputation. and this would even help to create a bunch of loyal users, who can keep on using asus's top devices. i don't think so much prime users will upgrade to the infinity without this. if the infinity will be a greater product than the prime (which i really love, my only problem is GPS and i have the dongle ...) i would seriously consider an offer like that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jrkart99:
new thread about this?

I am interested in hearing more about montley's work as it may be the only way forward from here, as far as we know. Can we get a thread about this? Maybe get Montley to make a statement. Heck, put a donation button up, i'd donate to get this thing moving in a postive direction.

Update: nevermind, I didn't realize that there was an ongoing thread in dev section; I misread and thought this was in development and not already out yet. Maybe get a sticky going for all the newbs out there looking to "fix" the prime and get the performance out of it including how to root, flash the kernal and change scripts...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Thom4s:
All the things I read here aren't really something to look forward to when you just ordered a prime.

I just ordered a prime.

:eek:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
you will be OK. its just the ones that had bad experiences. your new model prime is more than likely to be fine. its a great tablet. I've enjoyed owning it since Dec.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sledgie:
I think you misspoke. Let me correct it for you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leroybrute:
I have 2 tf300's and I just got a prime a few days ago, and I love both models. I got a c40 prime and my GPS locks on the same 10 out of 13 sat's as the tf300 but it takes about 2 minutes longer. The wifi works as well as the tf300 does. My understanding is these newer prime's work better. That being said I prefer using my prime and gave the tf300 to my daughter.

PS. If the infinity tf700 is out before return window, it is a straight across trade. Tf700 32gig for 499.99.

Another PS. Where can you buy a better tablet. They all have issues. I have used or owned most of the tablets. I like them all, but out of the HP tabs, xooms, galaxy tabs, Acer tabs, I haven't had or used one that I would buy over the Asus pads. My point is, no need for buyers remorse! Just enjoy it!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] klash9:
They'd never do that...but we can always dream i guess ;)

I read up on the benchmarks, and they seem like apart from the screen and probably greatly improved wifi and gps performance, it's not all that great...

Our primes are still going to have a slightly better battery life and generally be thinner and lighter..

That screen does look good though:cool:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leroybrute:
They would never do what?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] opentoe:
They hate me here when all I do is just remind people about stuff like this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Thom4s:
On paper it's just such a great product. I don't have buyer's remorse, don't worry, I'm well aware that all products have disapointed clients, and those clients often gather in places like this ;)

There's only one thing I hope, because of the similar architectur between the tf300, 700 and prime, that they run on the same code base and that they will all share the same updates (including jelly bean).
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bejango:
Hi all

I'm using a rooted Kindle Fire, with cyanogen mod 7.

I have downloaded the GAPPS package (gapps-gb-20110828-signed)

I can install some of these files, while others state not installed. (Application not installed)

If i then try access gmail, youtube, Google play, to login i just receive a message stating Unfortunately, Gmail has stopped. Strangely i can login to Google talk OK.

Am i using the correct GAPPS? Do i need another file to allow me to login?

Thanks

Simon
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anomalya:
Your apps might have been corrupted during the install.

Depending on which type of recovery you're using, you can try to "fix permissions" there to sort out all those apps.

Also in your Settings >> Applications, clear their data/caches.

Alternatively, you can manually uninstall each app that gives you trouble and reinstall from the market.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bejango:
Thanks anomalya,

Ive cleared out the cache, but no joy. How would I fix permissions to try that as a fix? it seems all the google apps installed, and will briefly show the opening page, but then doesnt work. Also imdb doesnt work. Strange that many other apps work fine. Any ideas on what to try next?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
The gapps zip is intended to be installed from recovery in the same manner as a ROM. It is my understanding that you are extracting the apks and then manually trying to install them.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bejango:
Ah yes that is correct. Ok so i need to install these from recovery? OK.. any chance of a quick reminder how to do this?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dasanko:
If you don't have a "reboot to recovery" option in your ROM, then you can either issue "adb reboot recovery", "adb shell idme bootmode 5001" & reboot, or just press the power button on FFF when instructed as you turn on the KF. If you haven't already flashed the latest FFF (1.4a) then you're strongly advised to do that as well (from recovery too, just as the gapps). And upgrade your TWRP to 2.1.1 if you're using an old version, too!

Thanks, that worked perfectly!

[Galaxy S II General] vishalgunthey:
Hello Everyone,

As promised my first custom rom is ready to be uploaded.I personally have tested all aspects of it so far and everything looks rock solid.

Here are the changelogs for version 0.1.

Note:This custom rom is currently for indian users based on official firmware 4.0.3 xwlp7 ddlp9.

1) Removed almost all bloatwares

2) zipaligned and deodexed

3) sgs3 fuju tweaks

4) sgs3 launcher as default

5) custom boot animation enabled

....and many more cant remember.

Some custom apps which i recommend you all to purchase from market are

1) Voodo Louder paid

2) Poweramp full version

3) Volume+

The stock kernel works best but if anyone needs better battery life i recommend using phenomenal extreme kernel.

The benchmark results for this tested rom were fpund to be 6240 on antutu.

I have almost found this rom to be on par as checkrom...:)

...Rom uploading is in progress...

i want to buy from canadagsm.ca the glide and send it to a family member who's living there. is anybody here bought from them? and more important is the IMEI of their phones are generic ones? (i know they sell an unlock version of the phone, so it can be unlocked with generic IMEI).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] TheHow7zer:
Hey taiber,

I just bought my (locked) glide from canadagsm with no issues. It was kinda sketchy as it came in a galaxy s2 box with only spanish instructions for the s2, but it shipped in time and the phone works and looks great!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
thanks for the answer mate,

but its strange, you said its locked? they advertised that they only sell unlocked phones.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xtapolapaketl:
Hi,

I bought a Samsung SGH-I927R from canadagsm.ca. It works really well.

Some things:

- they charged a little extra for shipment to Belgium, outside of Canada/US (which is ok, i guess)

- it came UNlocked (AND rooted... which was a nice extra)

- their rooting user account was still the main account of the phone when it arrived, but a factory reset fixed this -without losing the network unlock (if that was ever necessary)

- it is named 'Samsung Captivate Glide' on their site, but it seems that 'Samsung Galaxy S Glide' (which was on the box) is the name of the Rogers version.

- They shipped it with the content description 'cellular phone', so some extra import taxes were paid. :-(

- The GPS issue I read about doesn't seem a problem for me. GPS works as it should.

- The phone should be getting the ICS update, someday (as far as I know).

- The T9-predictive text input is limited to the languages relevant in Canada.

- using 'MoreLocale 2' in the google play store, I was able to add my own, custom 'locale'

- Performance of this device is really good (plays 'Max Payne Mobile', 'GTA3', N64 emulator,... all very smoothly.

Hope this helps.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
didt bought from them cos it was cheaper to buy via amazon.ca instead - my cousin choose for me. but it was over then a year ago so things chagned i presume.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] phaleg:
I will report my experience...

I found a N900T on canadagsm for 650 CAD and I asked if if could work with wind mobile and abroad. I asked also if I can pay with debit visa. They confirmed by email. I asked to double-check even if in the ad it was the wind logo in the carriers that it can work with.

The speed of answering decreased after I tried to buy from their website and my visa debit did not work.

After several attempts they sent me a paypal invoices and I paid it on Jan 9th.

It took over 10 days to send me this unit even if it was available and they initially lied about the shipping day and the day they were able to provide tracking information.

I got this phone after 14 days on 23rd and it did not work on wind mobile, even with the settings they told me to put. I asked to be called and never got a call back, so I opened a paypal dispute to resolve.

Now they want me to send the unit back in order to get another but I replied that I prefer to get first a working unit and then I'll send back this to UPS when I get the working one.

Quite upset for that...

Guys!

I have bought many times from CanadaGSM because they offer best rates, even I have recommend my friends to buy from them :good: Reason! Once i had some issues with the purchase and they sent me return shipping tag (off-course free) and i got new cell on 2nd day. That thing really made me their fan, yes! customer services over e-mail was not promptly but they never taken my money, I got the valued thing for the Best Cheap Rates :) Thanks

Did you join XDA just to rate them? I see you joined yesterday and that's your first post, WOW :laugh:

Anyway, I update my experience with them...

In the end, after 1 months of problems, I got a working Note 3, just a different model. I had to send back the previous unit first thought.

They offered to add an additional screen protector and a case, but I did not get it yet.

In the end my suggestion is, if you don't care to wait to much in order to save 100$ you can buy from them, but maybe you'll have to face off some problems on the way.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] reverbel:
I was considering buying a phone from CanadaGSM. Did a quick search on Google and changed my mind after seeing the results. As a new user I am not allowed to post links here, but a search for "beware CanadaGSM" should take you to a CrackBerry thread that I've found very enlightening. There are also complaints on other forums as well.

BTW, "Sam Cristoph" also posted to that CrackBerry thread. His post was very similar to the one above. That post was deleted, but you can still read it in quotes, along with a very good response. Go to the CrackBerry thread titled "BEWARE: CanadaGSM.ca purchase help! :(" and look at post #25 of that thread.
