Have you guys tried UCam.. its a good camera.. I use it a lot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] demonr6:
I don't think it is the software as much as it is the camera that is the main complaint. My wife has the HTC Sensation and the camera is loads better than the GS II. We both upgraded same time, that first night we were out and took pics with our phones and her shots are by far better than anything I took on my phone and this was out of the box without changing any settings. Her phone excels in night shots where mine looks super pixelated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
Htc cameras are the best around. I find using procapture to be best at macro shots. I think there was a discussion on this awhile ago in the themes and apps section. There was another camera.... But i forgot which.. Oh Wells I stuck to procapture, but night shots still suck.

Just curious if anyone else notices that all the jelly bean kernels appear to run much hotter than the ICS builds. My phone doesnt lock up but its constantly above 50c and over 60 at times just from moving around the UI alot. This is only with a 1326mhz hoverlock too, even stock 1200 does it.

Does anyone else notice this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adrynalyne:
Can't say I have.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] copkay:
I actually have noticed mine running quite hot on 4G -- hotter than usual -- but I don't know that I can correlate it with Jelly Bean. It's a warranty replacement phone so I really didn't give it any testing time on ICS that I could compare to. I know it's running much hotter than my old device. And I'm on the stock kernel, no overclocking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MS.:
Nope, my phone is pretty cool most of time and gets warm +50/+55C when watching HD videos or when playing games. Tested kernels: franco, Trinity and stock 4.1/4.1.1 without overclock.

Suggestions?

ICS 4.0.4 Hotspot

I am having the same issue with the hotspot mode. When i go to enter the menu from settings it locks up for about a minute then crashes. I did some reading and found this was an issue with 4.0.4 for some Sony phones. What they found was that they were missing APNs after the update.

The only APN i see on my phone now is the Default PTA and I seem to remember having 2-3 APNs on 2.3.5.

[HTC One X] Bellerophr0n:
I bought an HTC ONE X a couple of months ago, at first it was ok. But now it has lots and lots of problems.

WiFi problems (the well known ones)

3G and H connection problems

Random reboots

yellow spot left-hand side (some say it's glue, but I didn't notice it until today)

signal lose at random times

HTC and also the Store where I bought the phone say that they cannot replace it anymore. Does anybody know whether or not this can be fixed via an update or something? I really feel ripped off by HTC with this phone...
[HTC One X] OriginalFire:
The yellow spot won't be something that you could fix yourself. Either get a replacement HOX or stick with it.

I've got a small yellow strip by the usb port on my HOX, and I've gotten to the point that it doesn't bug me too much. Only a little when I'm on a white page.

Try using the aosp gallery app. Probably won't change anything but it is worth a shot. I believe it is built into stock ff18 and just frozen, not positive in that though. If you look in titanium backup you should see two different gallery apps, one of them is aosp.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blinde:
I have this rather annoying issue. USB connection with my computer doesn't work sometimes at all. My computer charges it but most of the time it doesn't recognize it. I've tried with three cords and two computers and still it doesn't connect most of the time. I've also tried reinstalling drivers etc. and I get still the same result. Also my desk charger which charges from those 3 pogo pins work rather poorly. Sometimes it charges, some times phone doesn't found it at all. AC charger or Car charger works just fine, most of the time.

This all started about a week ago. I have Jelly Bean 4.1.1 but I doubt that isn't the problem. I haven't dropped my phone or dropped it in water.

I read that Nexus has quite a lot problems with usb. But how can it be connected with usb and pogo pins?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
I just installed AndroWook rom. I didn't want to, not really. I was hoping to never have to unlock my prime. But then there was the thread about performance, and the other one about users not being able to unlock. How could I possibly walk away from that kind of a challenge? So I downloaded it just to see if it would work. And it did. So then I had to install TWRP, and then I had to install a rom.

So I installed AndroWook with Motley 3.0.5 and all the tweeks it had to offer.

I didn't wipe, I cleared cache and dalvik. I have nearly 2 years of screwing around on an HTC desire, so I felt comfortable with this level of deleting. Everything booted up properly, no apps were missing and everything (as of now) is working at least as well as before.

Then came the big test. The one that annoys me more then anything else. Copying a file from a USB thumb drive to internal memory. It usually takes 10 times as long as my windows PC does. So I plugged in the drive and copied a 250mb file. It took all of 20 seconds (I didn't really time, but it was MUCH faster). My jaw dropped.

I'm sold. ASUS has no clue what they're doing. This thing is great. I can copy files to the internal storage without staring at the percentage copying 10, then stoping, 12, stop, 15, stop, 20... This time it went smoothly from 0 to 100%.

If you haven't unlocked your device, you're missing out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] epology:
Appreciate the oppinion. Would like to hear more from your experiences with custom firmware as I'm also very unsatisfied with stock rom.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
Well I've been up for about 2 hours now, and while I'm not sure if it 'feels' a lot of faster, but I haven't had screen tear issues. I'll keep running this rom for at least a week and I'll update if anything changes. :) If there's anything you'd like me to test (as long as it is free or I already have it) let me know!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SolInvictus:
Parastie, you sound just like me almost. I've been twitching at all these challenges being presented before me. Failed unlocks, failed roots, better performance. How I've managed to resist unlocking so far is beyond me. My poor desire s didn't last so long, its been flashed so many times I don't think it knows what kind of device it even is anymore.

So you say file transfer is slow on stock, eh? I must witness this. Might be the straw that breaks the camels back for me. The one last push to unlocking.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
Welcome to the club!

So when you say copying from thumb drive to internal memory, you mean via the usb port on the dock right? (must be because I can't think of how else you would be doing it.)

The reason I ask is, I've been unlocked for a while, but haven't done any thumb drive to internal memory copying since I unlocked. I also found this unbelievably slow when running stock though (and all the starting and stopping made me think WTF???)

Gotta try it out tonight.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
Yeah the copying to internal memory was the most annoying. Slow as dirt, it makes putting HD movies on this thing impossible. I've only tried one file, but I'm going to try another large file when I get some time.

Also note, screen tearing still happens. I got it to stop by locking the screen for a few seconds, but that's still an issue. :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Anyone know if handwriting notetaking is better with any custom roms? My biggest problem with the prime has been how bad the digitizer seems to be (as in trying to draw a diagonal line the prime makes a crazy wavy line). Touchscreen tune helps but doesn't fully fix the problem.

Not sure if this is something a ROM can really fix or not.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
It does help some, I can tell the difference in a well performing rom by using handwriting apps. The handwriting apps when a rom is slow or sluggish don't keep up, kind of like an underpowered android phone and keyboard lag. But when performing properly, the handwriting is more accurate and keeps up with the stylus or finger, in my experiences.

Without seeing your problem, I can't say if it's because of your software and/or configuration, or if it's some very strange hardware problem that software can't fix. But I can tell you that typically a tablets performance overall greatly affects how things react to the touch screen and how the graphics render.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] svladimir:
Can you please either confirm or contradict one thing: I had a battery drain issue. For example before going to bed the tablet was docked and both batteries almost full, in the morning - dock battery flat, tablet - half empty. SystemPanel suggested it's a Facebook app and, miracle, as soon as I deleted the app I haven't seen leaks anymore.

This's a bit strange because this app has never caused drain issues before. Syncing and notifications were disabled.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whycali:
I won't defend asus as far a knowing what they are doing but I have never used a stock mobile device that could not be drastically improved by dedicated developers. The hardware companies are only focused on a product as long as it takes to hit a shelf and then by and large you are on your own. Thats why this is the best site on the internet for non sheep type people.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
This sounds like a text book app or widget problem and not a device problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
if you want to keep the facebook app, try turning off wifi when you turn the tablet off before you go to bed. super easy with the dock and i've gotten in the habit of doing so myself. i see 1-2% battery drain on teh tablet overnight, and <1% on teh dock. you might also want to try setting wifi to not stay on during sleep by default in settings, but idk if a wakelock via facebook would fix this.

also, did you try clearing data and cache or restarting and it still did this? anyways, sorry to be so OT to the OP. PM me if you want to chat about this some more.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] leppie:
I also bit the bullet yesterday.

Unfortunately my experience was not so good...

1. Unlocked, installed TRWP, made backup (and titanium).

2. Wipe device.

3. Install Androwook.

4. Tried to restore Titanium backup on to find it will prompt you twice for every app (I was not going to do this for 150 odd apps).

5. Go back to recovery, wipe device, and restore backup (this 'only' took about 30 minutes...).

6. Reboot, took about 15 minutes to boot.

7. My home screen was messed up, none of my installed apps would run, only the apps included in ROM.

8. Go back to recovery, wipe again, and installed AndroWook again.

9. Spent the entire day downloading apps from the play store again.

During the last step, the poor tablet consistently froze and even had a random reboot. Play store ANR'd about 15 times...

Eventually had everything back installed, but all my 'user data' is lost (hopefully I can recover this with Titanium if needed).

To be honest. It does not really feel any different. No OOOOHH's and AAAAAHH's like everyone says.

So now I have 2 problems. A useless tablet and no bloody warranty.

To top this off, I discovered another dead pixel (white one, not so noticeable) yesterday.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Stefan662:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MXR2:
I was on the fence about this issue too. Screen tearing & I/O performance was a big issue for me. Looks like it's device dependent, some users dont have it, some have it. Our device have this issue. ;(

B4 this I've read a few posts from other forumers claiming that tearing still happens on custom kernel & ROM.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nhshah7:
Wouldn't be a surprise as they're based off the stock rom.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Parastie:
Well screen tearing still happens here. Of course, I did not do a full wipe and I'm running Wook which is based on stock. It is possible that AOKP or CM9 would not have this problem. I was going for what most people said was the fastest. As far as day-to-day use goes, after a full day I don't really see a huge difference. It was great before, and it still is. :)

I suspect JB ROMs will be better at this as it bumps-up the CPU speed for user interactions.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kevinm2k:
Androwook is definitely better for me, before I got a LOT of Not responding messages throughout, Google Earth.. literally wouldn't work, and I felt embarrassed to let anyone even use it.

Now, games don't crash, I haven't had a not responding message yet (been 2 weeks so far), google earth works (not great but it does work), the whole thing to me feels faster and more fluid and I dont get the very often stutters I used to.

There are still issues of course, I do get a bit of screen tear on the left of the screen, it has rebooted a couple of times and it still slows down a lot when an app is installing at the same time as doing something else, so there are things to work on, but it is a massive improvement on what it was before... for me!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mmilestone:
I unlocked, installed AndroWook, and the difference from stock is like night and day. It's amazing how an XDA dev can make this POS work better even after months of Asus "trying" their "best" to get it right.

It also a thing of wonder how, despite Asus' warning to the contrary and voiding warranty after unlocking, it is only through unlocking this junk that you can make it work better.

I've given up on Asus because of this. I had one earlier this year, but it developed the same known issues and returned it. After giving it a 2 month shake waiting for Asus to get things right hardware-wise, I bought another one. Lo, and behold! Despite Asus knowing what the issues are after all those months, it did nothing to rectify the issues by changing their hardware. GPS Dongle my @$$! Instead, they come up with the TF-700 (which also has some of the problems of the TF201) to rectify some of the Prime's fault. What about the Prime users? Stick that dongle where the sun don't shine!

Despite being unlocked, and on a custom ROM that makes it run better, you would still be stuck with the weak wi-fi and junk gps, i/o, as well as the bt/wi-fi issues.

I've already advised customers/companies to avoid Asus like the plague and we've started contacting other OEMs for their needs.

Unlocking and installing a custom ROM, done right, will change this tablet a great deal from the junk it is on stock. But that let's Asus off the hook.

I used to give Asus the benefit of the doubt. Now, I doubt the benefits of using Asus.

For IO questions in regards to copying data.

I copy 1.69GB of data to a NTFS formatted 1TB USB HDD from internal memory in about 2.5 minutes.

Copied 4.03GB to internal memory from same drive in about 4.5 to 5 minutes.

Copied 1.2GB of data to microSD card from same drive in about 1.5 minutes.

There was only 2 points in the 4GB file that caused a slight pause, nothing I would say is abnormal even for windows with this drive. As for copying data to the drive, that did stop and start but was much quicker then stock android build. NTFS drivers for linux are usually pretty slow, so I'm feeling very confident with these times. I did use 'performance' which I think is set to 1.7ghz, but I'm not sure. I'll have to double check.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zenaxe:
I unlocked this week. My experience has been really pleasant so far. Went with AdroWook 2.1. I was actually largely happy with the rooted stock ROM and had only the GPS issue which was not a problem for me. Seriously, I almost never use GPS on any of my android devices. I have a dedicated GPS in my car and that is it.

However .28 seemed to break a lot of stuff for me. In particular, games started crashing left and right and BT started acting up. I reflashed the .28 update again after an extreme wipe but no go... I've flashed a lot of ROMs and unlocked a lot of different devices, so I decided to to pull the trigger on the prime. I had felt like ASUS was doing a good job bringing stuff out quickly and once I unlock a device, I tend to do nothing but mess with the OS for the rest of it's life. ;) But I decided I did not want to wait it out for another OTA.

Needless to say, BT is fixed completely and games are much more stable (although I DO get crashes they are much more manageable and I think they are probably app issues for the most part at this point).

I'm extremely happy with the Prime now. It is one bad a** tablet with AW2.1.
