Thanks for the input

Looking at eBay seems super-cheap with capability.

Are there any cheaper ones that just have cm7 rooted full support that anyone has come across?

Seems by rooting you can get a super-cheap android tablet, even without a sim card or phone support, that will fit in your pocket and have a tons of functionality and possibility.

Who can find the cheapest :laugh:

Hello, i have JMZtaylor's CM9 port for the Evo 4g installed, the 7/01 nightly. my question is when i try to flash the update for 7/05 and 7/06, then flash the recommended gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip and after it boots up, there is no Google Play store. any help is appreciated, thanks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benb1987:
fixed it

So I figured out how to fix my problem. I'm not really sure if there is a better way, but what I did was re-flashed the original version, the 20120621 I believe. Then from there I just flashed gapps and then updated right to the 7/06 update. I'm not really sure why that after doing the updates regularly, my gapps just stopped loading. I would only flash the update and not gapps, until this last update because when the phone booted up I didn't have the play store anymore. So I hope this helps anyone out there that may have had the same issue as I did.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ranafram:
His motherboard has not "blown up", but it is possible that if he was flashing from a stock rom, wiping and flashing a new ROM triggered the emmc bug. Thus resulting in an 'unusable' internal storage chip.

If this is the issue, only way to fix this is to take it to a Samsung service center (there are various 'alternative' methods out there, but non of which are guaranteed).

Best of luck!

dude in emmc bug the partition get disturbed but the phone still gets in to recovery or download mode but here the phone is not showing any sign of life read carefully so it's a clear issue of motherboard
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Ranafram:
This is not always true. It can sometimes affect the recovery partition as it is a PARTITION of the eMMc chip. Because the error causes a bad block on the chip while calling upon the firmware to format a region of it, the affected block can render the entire chip useless (unless one were to come into possession of some of Samsung's proprietary tools to fix an issue like this; in which case, would fix the chip).

P.S. The eMMc bug is also known as the 'superbrick' bug

Because of this in many cases one cannot even revive their their note using a JIG. Therefore it must be sent in for a MOTHERBOARD replacement (seeing that the emmc chip is soldered onto it)

Please search the forums for "superbrick bug" for more information.

Please be more knowledgeable before attempting to correct somebody..

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MXR2:
Hi guys, a very interesting storage benchmark test involving TF201, TF300 & TF700

done by Android Police

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...hmark-11-modern-devices-compared-in-13-tests/

What you guys think?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
I think Asus should be really embarrassed about this, but sadly, I don't think they are.

If they were, they'd be doing a lot more than they appear to be.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
I think it's a step in the right direction in terms of trying to highlight Asus' tablets poor I/O performance to the public.

Asus will continue to ignore its responsibilities to ensure it's products are fit for purpose unless their unethical practices are making headlines.

Vote for this to be news on the XDA portal, we need as much exposure as possible.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
How do we vote?

Edit: nevermind, I opened my eyes. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
For others who might now know, "Submit Thread as News Tip" at the top right.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cenonmin:
Pretty much confirms what other found out about IO on the Prime. It sucks :mad:

I am really hoping ASUS will fix it :rolleyes:

EDIT:

Also nice that the article mentions that the slow IO contributes to ANRs

ASUS WAKE UP!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fsured:
But will Asus actually read the article or be notified of it. I'm interested in know how the nexus 7 tablet performs compared to the prime. They probably know the I/o issue exist already but have been so wrapped up in making a perfect functional Google tablet that resources and man power were diverted to its development followed by the tf700. Hell the tf700 is probably getting their attention now so its release isn't a flop. I just find it really hard to think their engineering development isn't aware.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kokopuphz:
I've been looking into the issue of disk I/O and my theory is that perhaps the disk partitions are not aligned properly to the disk.

Please see the below article in regards to slow performance on and SD-Card. Although the article is in reference to an SD-Card, the same concept applies to our internal MMC card as well.

Since I'm below 10 posts, I can't directly post a link, but the address is below:

h//blogofterje.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/optimizing-fs-on-sd-card/

If I knew the ins and outs of linux and android a bit better, I'd love to go try and test various things, however I'm not as advanced and I'm afraid I would just end up with a hard brick...

I'm wondering if motley would be able to look into the alignment of partitions and the ext4 file systems. (especially the /data and /cache partitions (mmcblk0p2 and mmcblk0p8)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
I'm started to think "ANR" stands for Asus Not Responding... seems pretty appropriate. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MXR2:
should all of us just pm Gary Key the link of this benchmark test? no way that he could miss that
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
this is not news. they already know this and working on it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
Agreed, this is just another thread of many. It still has not been proven that software fix will work. While the various hacks seem to help (i'm running SIO), it's not perfect. I still get ANR on occasion and have to reboot to get some games to play. I really think this is either a hardware problem or a driver problem. It may not be possible to fix to everyone's satisfaction.

On a personal note, I don't think ANR is as big of an issue as everyone says. iOS products also have 'not responding' moments. You know what they do? They crash strait to 'home'. No message telling you something went wrong, so no one complains about ANR on iOS. I'll bet if Google just removed the ANR response 90% of complaints would go away.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MXR2:
Yes, I'm sure they knew this long before. But it's been 6 months. How long more?

It's not functioning properly and I can't even sell it off as a 2nd hand product

Yes I got ANR once on my S3. But ANR is not the most severe, I can't even play songs normally when doing market updates.

"It may not be possible to fix to everyone's satisfaction." Yes, it may not, but atleast it's not there like a pricking pain in the ass.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] airf0rce:
This isn't about the stupid ANR when app gets stuck. Yeah sometimes, some application crash, or freeze and that can happen no matter how fast your device is.

The real issue is that, the device is just very slow overall. Installing market updates manages to freeze the entire system, for comparison, it does absolutely nothing to SGSIII, you can still do whatever you want without slow downs. Browsing, multitasking or anything heavy on I/O performance is just terrible experience on Prime.

If as you said they removed ANR message, your browser would still get stuck for good few seconds, installing apps would still produce heavy lag etc. you just wouldn't get the message.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
Sorry but you don't know this, the only thing you know is what Asus is feeding you and that's as much as you know. The TF300, TF700 and TF201 come last in the important benchmarks (important in regards to I/O performance) and not last by a hairs width either, but by a country mile.

Another beta tester has done the correct thing and come clean that 28.5 still throws ANR messages and I will not be happy until there isn't a single ANR when browsing. It's entirely fair to expect this, the Galaxy Nexus doesn't produce ANR messages and it's not hiding the messages either as there's absolutely zero pauses or slow downs.

Gary is just a fall guy, he's installing false hope into the users of XDA so the stupid ones amongst us will continue to wait. People are growing more and more impatient, this is clear to see all over the forum. Gary would rather throw mud at people by claiming they're actually not real owners of the Prime but my month old PM has still not been answered, despite the fact I detailed my device serial number, vendor and purchase date.

If I was in Asus' position, I would take some ownership and leadership on the I/O issue and I would sit down with the stakeholders who are responsible for fixing this such as software engineers and hardware engineers. I would then brief them on the issue, tell them what "good" looks like, i.e. I expect no ANR messages and benchmark improvements in line with the HTC One X and no short cuts that could risk user data such as removing fsync.

I would then want an email weekly with a summary of their findings, their next steps and how well they believe they can fix the issues.

If a software fix doesn't work then Asus need to come clean about it. Of course ANR is a big issue, I've yet to receive an ANR message on my Galaxy Nexus and that's when my Nexus is updating applications in the background; my Prime will throw an ANR whilst only browsing.

Would I be happy if the browser just force quit without an error message or just hung? No I wouldn't as it still doesn't meet my expectations, expectations set by another Android 4.x device that has a lower specification (My Galaxy Nexus).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
I'm not saying there aren't occasional slow downs. I know there is. What I'm saying is that I don't think a software patch will fix it. Don't forget, your SGIII has twice the memory, a completely different CPU, and completely different internal memory. Comparing the two of them is not the same. Comparing the HTC One X, or the Nexus 7 is more fair.

The ANR flag is a red light in my opinion. You see it so something must be wrong. People who are not technically inclined, who don't understand what exactly it is (a debugging flag in my opinion) see it only as something their friends' ipads do not do. It's an overblown issue.

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

Maybe I'm lucky, but I don't have nearly as many ANR issues as you have. Even with stuff updating in the background I still surf the web (Chrome) and use chat (IMO) and do not have problems. I have ANR issues all the time on my HTC Desire running 4.0.4 and I've played with my friend's Nexus and it also gets ANR issues and the home screen lags horrible in comparison to my Prime.

Try setting up both your Nexus and your prime to be as identical as possible. Same widgets, same launcher, same number of screens then see how it does. I expect IO to still be an issue on the Prime, but I don't feel it's as horrible as everyone else says. Would I like it fixed? Sure! Better is better, I just don't think they will.

EDIT:

I tested just to make sure. I'm installing Sim Free to Play while playing a 720p copy of Pirates of the Caribbean and had no skipping of audio or dropped frames. Now that I'm thinking about it, my internet connection (1mb if i'm lucky) might be too slow to max out the internal memory bandwidth. Any other tests?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jandus:
A very important question to answer that keeps popping up in my head is this:

Is the TP hardware CAPABLE of much higher performances?

I keep hearing of software fixes for ANRs and other I/O issues but even with the most efficient OS, can the hardware even do it? Is it just a crappy firmware revision?

Jand
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dagrim1:
I'm afraid the hardware in the end IS the issue... Software can helpt (as various tweaks and optimalizations have shown) but in the end a simple copy for example takes a long time. You can optimize slow/cheap/bad hardware and create workaround for it, but you can't fix it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mekrel:
The Desire is old though and even on official builds from HTC, it also had system hangs when installing content from the Android Market (as it was back then). I owned the Desire around April 2010 and 4.0.4 isn't an official build for the Desire.

Sorry but I can't see how your friend is getting ANR messages on his Nexus, I've honestly not had one and you only have to read the Nexus forums to realise that people also do not have ANR issues, unlike the Prime forums where it's clear it's an issue for most users.

In regards to setting up the devices the same, my Prime actually has less running on it purely because half the applications on my Nexus do not have a decent tablet UI. Heck, I don't even have Titanium Backup installed because I honestly couldn't give two hoots about the data on it as it's hardly used.

All this is, is a difference in expectation. A lot of users are rightly pissed off that their £500 quad core device is out performed by budget tablets and phones with slower internal hardware. Some are obviously more forgiving and that's fine, but the TF201 is far from working as should be.

Well lesson learnt, only buy Samsung from now on. My Galaxy SII, Nexus, D40D4000 TV and DA-E550 Media dock have never had me questioning the money I spent on them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Turboleon84:
First time I noticed problems with the IO speed of my TP was when downloading using a Torrent client. I have a 25mb connection and when downloading the speed will go from 0kb/s to 3MB/s and back to 0kbps all the time and the TP is completely useless while downloading. No response at all. Seems like it is caching to ram for a little while then dumps it into the internal SD card and the thing freezes while it's doing that. I tried to limit to only 500kb/s but still it would freeze up. That is really weak.

Which city did it OTA from?

I live in India and it still hasn't shown up yet. Just wondering if there are newer ones than this June 13th build.

I used to own a Milestone before, and I remember that the official Froyo 2.2.1 update for that was also quite old - Moto released newer kernels for other regions but not for APAC.

It would be weird to see that AsiaRetail's final OTA has a build date of June 13, and has still not been made available - even after almost 2 weeks since Verizon OTA was officially made available!

Tested by me on the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit only. (I'm told it works on the Galaxy W). If your device's /system/etc/vold.fstab file matches the attached original Galaxy Exhibit fstab file, it may work for you as well. Note: This app is not compatible with CyanogenMod. Root is required.

A common complaint about some Samsung Gingerbread phones is the fact that they mount the relatively small internal sd memory as /mnt/sdcard and this memory is treated as the phone's primary removable storage by some apps, ignoring the "real" removable sd card that Samsung refers to as "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd".

This simple gui allows you to swap the two so your larger "external sd" is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/" and the smaller sd internal memory is mounted as "/mnt/sdcard/external_sd".

This is done by changing a file called vold.fstab in your phone's /etc folder. The original device vold.fstab file is backed up to /etc/vold.fstab.backup when this app first runs. Your data on /mnt/sdcard and /mnt/sdcard/external_sd is not touched in any way whatsoever. Root is required. Easy install: copy the apk file to your SD card and open with a file manager.

Please nandroid backup before testing!

If you get "Unknown Error, Contact Developer" you are more than likely not properly rooted! This app requires Superuser and Busybox to properly function!

Please note that if you've already moved existing apps to SD or existing apps have placed support files on SD, swapping mount points is not a good idea. Uninstall these apps, then reinstall after swapping.

So has anyone had success using this on the Exhibit II/4G or is it really just for the older Exhibit or am I just mis-reading the title?

I'd like to make the switch since the "internal" sd situation is rather silly and I just picked up a new SDHC card for my phone.
