[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokopuphz:
Experienced the screen tear effect for the first time last night.

On stock JP(.22), and I had just installed SIO, tune.sh by batoo, and build.prop mod, and was giving everything a test run after cold-restart + pinhole restart + soft-restart.

I experienced this when playing around with the camera and switching back and forth between the gallery and camera.

Rebooted once more since the effect remained for even on the home screen, and havent seen the issue again.

On a different note, the build.prop settings were giving me a bit choppiness on homescreen swipes, thus I undid it afterwards.

1.) Well, there is this tablet by Lenovo...

http://androidandme.com/2012/01/dev..._campaign=Feed:+androidandme+(Android+and+Me)

It passed through FCC not too long ago...

However, I expect this tablet to be sold by "carriers" with data plan....

If keyboard is really important & WIFI tablet is all you need...

There's Asus Pad 300(cheaper) & Infinity 700(same price as Prime)....

Not exactly a fan of Asus, but I think at least both have better QC over Prime...

2.) This is my personal opinion.... take it with grain of salt.

Nope, I think majority of the Prime are riddled with issues. Those "perfect" or "satisfactory" Prime's are extremely rare......

Just return your Prime... take a gamble on Pad 300 or Infinity 700 instead if KEYBOARD dock is really important.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PeterSH:
.Its my first posting here. So first of all I am fine with my prime

No seriouse issues with my C4.... prime.

Wlan fair GPS outdoor work and very less ANR esp by using Dolphin HD browser.

Screen issues.

Yes I have them but very less and only in the "my libary " stock reader.

And here only with PDF not epup and only in landscape mode.

For me it only appears when I open a pdf and do nothing.

After a few minutes screen flickers for a second (first thought like a broken cable to the LCD)

I try to investigate. There is no difference if the prime is in battery safe normal or power mode.

BUT if I switch of WLAN I have no issues.

Never see it in flight mode and again only in landscape

it claims to be everything unlimited for one year with refills but is it it any different:confused: data wise cause i been hearing around the forums that it slow down after 2gb but it CLAIMS unlimited

Unlimited doesn't mean un-throttled.
[Networking] don728871:
ok bro bro bro

ok bro well whats the cap its last for one year a whole year ...whats the cap on data
[Networking] LoopDoGG79:
There is no cap, it just slows down after 2gb in a month. You can still use data after the 2gb, albeit at dial up speeds.

They used to just cancel people for going over that amount according to howardforums. 2GB was listed in the fine print.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rruss:
I want to unlock am I putting too.much emphasis on this warranty stuff I mean I've never actually used my warrenty on any of my phones anyway but its nice to know I can
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
Not at all, I've never sent my phone in to HTC & they haven't had a problem helping with stock supplies. Not to mention Sprint handles my phone troubles & after them, Asurion.

Sent from my EVO LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cantos:
I was on the fence about doing the HTC Dev unlock since I got my device. I finally broke down and unlocked it using Regaw's one click method. According to HTC's new terms of service -- I should say from what I've HEARD of the new TOS -- they will honor hardware failures if the device is unlocked using HTC Dev, but they will not support software issues. This to me makes it a no brainer to unlock, since ultimately as Noiro stated, Sprint, then Asurion THEN HTC are inline to fix things.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rruss:
Thanks I think you guys just convinced me to unlock lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] theoner1:
Here's another reason. While on stock rom games like temple run and temple run brave stutter like crazy, but now with custom rooted rom these games perform so smoothly, much much much better. I believe other app and games has improved also with custom rom. There's some magic in what these Dev do to bring the best in this Evo (Thank you to all the Dev's).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hitzand:
It kept me from rooting for a long time on my Evo 3D. I waited until the brick-downgrade-hboot method was available so I could un-void warranty if needed. MeanROM made my device so much nicer to use that I almost wasn't going to upgrade, except I really needed a better camera.

I was really holding off on unlocking this one, but the Evo LTE is such nice hardware held back by some questionable software choices that it's tough. Once Mikey started putting out MeanROM for this, I had to unlock. I am nervous - I don't have TEP or other warranty. But, Sprint is usually pretty good to me as a 13 year customer with multiple lines.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] themuffinman:
Yeah bro, same here. I was on the fence as well and I decided to wait it out but once I saw how the amount of custom roms and mods were popping up lately I ended up just giving into the pressure. I used the one click method as well, pretty simple and straight forward to use.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dreyfus42:
I was going to hold off, but the one touch root was pretty easy and after upgrading from my EVO 3D and waiting forever for root on that, I didn't want to wait. I switched from Sprint's TEP to the Best Buy version and I don't think that rooting it will be that big of an issue if I have to return it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] iamkoza:
I'm waiting for the dev's to fine tune their roms, hopefully in the coming months there will be a consensus as to which roms are the best and I will then unlock and install at that point. For now I'll live with sense 4.0 on stock
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] exSD:
Surprisingly, I'm still stock ROM (rooted, but not unlocked). I'm being stuck up and waiting for S-OFF which I doubt is ever coming.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Evo_Shift:
I was going to hold off awhile until the menu remapping mod. That mod alone makes it worth unlocking to me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
I sure hope guys are not afraid to void a crappy warranty. From my experiences with manufacturers warranty they will most likely not honor 50 percent of repairs anyways and blame it on wear and tear and say it wasn't a manufacturers defect and god forbid one of the water strips was triggered.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
Who ever goes through HTC anyways? It only voids their warranty not sprints
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:
Before (well on the 3D) using the unlocking method left a lot to be desired initially & there were things you couldn't do without S-OFF.

This time around, it seems like the "S-ON" is for show. I guess we'll know come custom kernel time, post-source released versions anyway.

*This comment was made with very little knowledge of what S-On/OFF (Security On/Off) is, I thought I knew until this phone came.

I guess just to show that the bootloader's cherry had been popped (labeld "tampered") :rolleyes:

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
Is there, or will there be a way to use google wallet on the non sprint S3s? With or without root or rom?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
There has to be some info on this out there. Is Google Wallet just a gimmick or will this really take off? If so I would think AT$T and Verizon being bigger providers than Sprint, there would have to be the ability to get these to work with it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] dLo GSR:
there is info on this, if you search.

wallet is only support officially by sprint. the rest of the carriers you will have to find the modded apk for wallet.

(also, i hit the thanks button accidentally instead of 'quote' on your post, so free thanks for you!)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
I searched, but anything that comes up is about Sprint having it and AT&T not...But at least I know that it will be possible at some point.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gr8Danes:
The question is if the At&t version has a secure element. If it doesn't, then there is no chance.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
How do we go about finding something like that out? If they are wanting their version of the s3 to work with some other "google wallet" type system, it would seem it would have all the same requirements. I dont see them killing the ability completely, just had the software side removed. But who knows what these guys will do these days.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] planoman:
Att is developing their own system with some other carriers called ISIS. Probably not a chance to get Google wallet working on the att version.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] FlyinHi:
I would try this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1365360

EDIT: That only works on rooted devices, my bad
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
Having to root it is not a big deal, I just wanted to know it was possible to use it if the need came up. Right now I dont think NFC payments are big enough to consider a must have, but if the day comes that 8 of 10 shops use some sort of nfc payment system it will change my mind for sure. I just like to know that I can do something. Im sorta waiting to root as well Its running like a champ and everything that i use daily is working without a root. Once a nice easy one click is out that will not trip the counter I will go for it, or if some app or ability that I just have to use requires it. But just enjoying the phone for now as is
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] lgkahn:
I am rooted still doesn't work on i747 just hangs on activating
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wiz4769:
Maybe now that so many are getting this phone we will see some work being done to figure this out.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] 420SYN:
to get it to work you will need to fudge the phone into thinking it's connected with Sprint using Market Enabler or equivalent. That's I had to do on my G Nexus in canada.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] eatonjb:
so, for some reason, i installed it, it loads but i get this message, and just stopps.

Kinda late but it's cool. Phone runs smooth as it is. I have 3 other ICS phones and I miss no features
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bolochan:
Thanks for the info, kinda sucks having to wait that long.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] souperman7340:
OCTOBER!

Let's hope some devs can get ICS running way before that! What could possibly take so long!? The phone was announced almost 6 months ago! I thought this phone would launch with ICS for sure! They had plenty of time to get it done before launch! Almost makes me want to cancel my order!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Well I know AT&T delays the update process quite a bit. If I get any more info about the update I will make sure I let you guys know.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] augie7107:
Spectre51 has been spot on in the past. October is the target.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zerrudo:
October...I can wait, this is my first android phone since deciding to leave my blackberry.

Actually thats not true, I got the Lg Thrive (prepaid) and I hated the experience on it and ended up bricking it trying to update to gingerbread.

So far..I'm enjoying my new phone, aside from the crappy battery life this feels like a totally solid device!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
If you haven't already let the phone completely run out of power them charge it full. Do that a few times and the battery life will improve.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zerrudo:
Thanks for the tip, I'll be sure to do that

Just wondering how long you had to hold the volume down button after plugging the usb into your ion. I have been trying to get pc companion to move on to the update step for an hour now and nothing is happening. trying all the steps 3 times

I've seen a lot of ICS update threads. Don't spam the section and use one thread to post your questions/suggestions/opinions. It would be the best solution to all of us.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ninja08:
I'm liking this new update. I like the new keyboards. I didn't know there were skins with the stock xperia keyboard. The gallery is the best. Fluidity also stuck to me.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SykoFerret:
I did not use the volume up/down button at all, as it was not stated to do so in the on screen instructions. Though I did have to wait for awhile to download the package due to slow web connection. I just plugged it in it asked to update and I went through the steps. walked away came back to a rebooting phone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] azn75vtec:
ICS update is the best so far that ever happen to Sony... I'm liking the update so far... it's more smooth in transition. and you can actually end back ground program from recent open application list where you can't with GB. awesomeness.... hahahahaha

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Johnston212:
I did a quick search, but I couldn't find an answer for this. Can I use the PC software to update this to the official ICS from the lt28h port? I'm looking forward to seeing how the official version goes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] thanitos:
Try getting Sony update service, worked better for me

Did you do this while it was still saying Android is upgrading? Can't seem to get it to respond....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ninja08:
Yes. It worked for me try other combinations. Like power+vol down or power + vol up
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] asengupt:
So which version is the update this week? I was one of the "lucky?" few who got the update last week - first got 6.1.C.1.105 then a quick OTA to 6.1.C.1.107 and update center kept insisting on another "update" to 6.1.C.1.107 - actually did this twice - then turned of automatic notifications from update center and have been using 6.1.C.1.107 for the last week or so - pretty satisfied so far. I still got the text message today and check PC companion but it says I already have the latest update.

So my question is - are you guys getting the same 6.1.C.1.105/107 this week? Or is it a different version?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] crh8:
Did you have to hold it down for any length of time or anything? Seems like i'm not getting any real result...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
No. Pc companion requires 100% stock firmware (no root, or mods), or you get errors.

Next time try a 'slow' search for how to use pc companion, in xda search. This information is all over xda in all the different Xperia phone forums.

Sorry that was mean, but true ;)

Good luck

Benefits?

Since we are no longer allowed to make new threads about the Att ICS update

my questions:

what are the benefits?

is it still rootable?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] darknicro:
Random question to those that updated via PC Compainion. Are the colors for the SMS app different than the LT28h one? I'm only wondering because I flashed the "early release" ftf and it's very different for me. Only wondering if it's me or everyone.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Asiansniper911:
It is still rootable, but the benefits I'm not the person to ask.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
New threads aren't needed as there is already a main thread to keep all the info contained instead of 100 different posts covering the same issues and topics.

Benefits....upgraded OS. New features and fixes. Can't list them all and some might think certain changes are not benefits.

Yes its still rootable.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
No you need a computer as the update is not OTA
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] SykoFerret:
So far the only cons I have noticed with my particular handset is the the gyro sensor keeps switching the screen to landscape when held in portrait, the screen flashes alot more, and transitions seem a bit buggy, overall it is more responsive. MUCH better on battery, and signal aqcuisition is much stronger albeit a bit more sluggish. It's a good preliminary update (version 105). Will try to FOTA to 107 later today when I can do so again, and check for variance.

Verdict, Overall satisfactory, and FAR better than stock GB rom.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] notnowme01:
There's still a .107 build? I thought that was taken out?

Same thing happens with her phone. Thanks for the help. Pete
