Existing Facts

1. USB data transfer inconsistency i.e. hangs relatively frequently when trying to transfer multiple files at once

2. System slows down/almost freezes when installing many applications

3. System slows down/freezes when download many files [supposedly with torrent, but I never confirmed this]

All make sense to point finger at the issue with I/O... But one exception I encounter today...

Case Report

Based on the application recommendations on this forum, for the first time I installed Solid Explorer (File Manager), which by the way is awesome. I was in lasy mood today and knowing it would be problematic but decided to use AirDroid to transfer some files. Initially couple hundred megabytes. Surprisingly, it went smooth. So now I tried like 500MB. Still no problem, and was pretty quick. So now, I actually started to upload like 1GB files (20+ files) at once using AirDroid. While this is taking a place, I realized one set of files uploaded were already complete but I placed in the wrong folder. So I opened Solid Explorer and moved these files WHILE other several hundreds megabyte of files are still being transferred over AirDroid. Basically, I noticed ZERO lag using solid explorer.

Analysis

In above scenario, there has to be intense writing to the disc taking place as I was essentially downloading bunch of files over the WIFI (though it was technically within my network, it should not matter). Sure the file move is just a little tagging so not by any means CPU/GPU or intense process but ZERO lag seems a surprise.

Conclusion

So the issue above does exist but may be it is not as simple as "Flash drive writing is slow." In fact, if anything to me this scenario defends against such conclusion and gives me a hope it is some sort of software/kernel handling USB transfer, or torrent download in comparison to AirDroid application.

So if not anything, I recommend AirDroid for the file transfer from you computer until the issue gets fixed.

Subscribed!

Thanks for the interesting thread. Please post back if you have any other observations. The I/O thing has kept me from ordering one.

Any chance you could try it with other file explorers, too? I wonder if it's just something goofy with Asus software?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
Maybe you just received a good unit. My old tPrime could torrent well at 1 bar wifi at 1 megabyte per second and play graphically intensive games at the same time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] vlad2277:
People, explanation is very simple

There's no major problems with this tablet.

Most of people here are telling everyone about problems, let's say about 100 in total.

And let's say about 10000 tablets already got sold in US, nothing 32&64 gb.

So that's only 0.01% of them are broken one way or another.

That's really good margin for any product.

Unfortunately for those people, but way within standards for Asus.

I had $100 Monster surge protector suddenly die from brand new heater. I bough $25 Belkin, and it's working perfectly for 2 yrs.

Most complains I been reading about saying about that you can't do heavy tasks while tablet is busy copying big files, so what???

This is a tablet, NOT A SERVER.

Copy all your music and video and just use a tablet, it's almost perfect in every other way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] gottahavit:
That's actually 1%, but who's counting

While I love the tab, the IO issues are obvious and easily reproduced, not to say that some software doesn't work better than others when dealing with file access. I have little doubt asus will address soon.
[Asus Transformer TF700] vlad2277:
Yes, you right, but still very small margin for serious defects.

There's almost no I/o issues during normal usage.

There's no reason to use a tablet while you copying you huge video library or something else.

Other then that you really don't see any lag during normal usage.

On my cell I use a program fast reboot. No root needed, it shuts down all appear almost like hot reboot and you start over, when you have too many background apparel opened.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Keion:
People, ASUS put a microsd slot on this tablet for a reason. Don't let the slot go to waste.

I do agree that ASUS should pimp out the IO though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
To add to that... until very recently, you couldnt sync the iPad (or other iOS device) and use it at the same time. That was done for a reason; there were hacks around it for jailbroken users, but there was a noticeable performance hit. Even some android devices unmount the storage from the device to prevent issues like this. I'm not saying there isnt a serious underlying issue, but most of the cases I've heard of involve atypical use.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Einride:
So you're saying that the standard, builtin browser that throws out ANR messages, rolls over and dies at the simplest web page is "almost perfect in every other way"?

Yes, it's a tablet, but it's also not 1994. If I want to browse the web while downloading the new BF3 Armored Kill 1080p 60fps trailer (the awesomeness in that video...) I shouldn't be able to? Streaming video while having the audio sent through a bluetooth headset shouldn't be possible (go on, give it a try)? Give me a ****ing break!

Yes, ARM and x86 architectures aren't directly comparable, but we're still talking about a 4-core (well, 5) CPU with 1 GB RAM and a flash drive running a now fairly mature mobile operating system.

This is a $600 product (even more for those of us in the EU or Asia), we're entitled to complain when said product at times performs like a $60 dollar Chinese tablet instead.

Also, anyone admitting to using Monster products pretty much have their credibility thrown out the window immediately.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
You pull those numbers from where the sun never shines, and since they are pure fantasy from you, you invalidate your theoretical observation with them. Opinions are like asses: everyone has (at least) one.

Some programs mask it by using averages -- and even projection -- so you can't really trust the eye. Total Commander, however, actually shows the file transfer halting every now and then (on .21 firmware, at about 170 MB chunk intervals on full speed copy).

Hahaha! Someone ups your marging by a factor of 10 -- a failure rate of 1% is a lot in a modern and supposedly properly Q&A'd device, by the way. (Again, your personal opinion on the matter notwithstanding.) Almost no I/O issue under normal use? Have you actually installed any app from the Play Store? And, in *my* personal opinion (yes, I have an ass as well), if you provide multitasking capability in an OS, it should be functional and workable. Funny how you perceive no reason to multitask, because I have lots of them.

Again, just installing something from the Play Store could hang your device for up to a full minute, whereas installing the same app on every other Android device I have used/owned/seen from a distance doesn't impact performance to the same extent.

I love the tablet, and have a lot of pleasure from its many uses in my particular case. It is not a crusade against the TF700 or ASUS to point towards these issues, although I must admit it is hard to not get a little bit angry at the people that defend their point of view that there simply is not problem at all, eeing that some users in here -- myself included; I've had it since over two weeks before retail -- have had the unit far longer than they have and have had (and taken) ample time to fool around with the device and share their observations. If your unit doesn't exhibit any issues and functions perfectly, well, congratulations! I would never sell that particular unit, and would be extremely saddened when it ultimately fails, for NO DEVICE EVER CONCEIVED BY MAN has been without its faults. To put them into context, fine, I'm with you, but to flush them down the imaginary problem toilet because of your opinion, based on imaginary data (like fantasized sales figures, LOL), going against harder observations from other people... No, that makes my blood pressure rise.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Redefined301:
I really think the tablet is lacking a exhaust port with a low power fan to push some hot air out of the device.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cipherbreak:
This is a tablet not a laptop. I wouldn't have bought it if it required a fan and exhaust ports for proper temperature control. That would be almost as ridiculous as cellphone with a fan...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Redefined301:
All it need is some thermal control on the processor.

The quad-cores can hit 80C.. that's the real issues here.

It's not safe so to speak... The heat does accumulate after a while it will be too hot to even touch it.

Bluetooth Sound Delay when playing Dead Trigger..
[Asus Transformer TF700] gottahavit:
I consider downloading an app form the play store and trying to continue to use my tablet normal usage. That said I am not that concerned about the IO issues, as I believe ASUS will fix them soon.

I also do not consider rebooting regularly to clean memory or kill poorly written software a valid argument in any way. That went the way of windows 98.

Most of the issues with android are due to poorly written software and in some case poorly written modules in the OS or poor mutations done by the mfgr. But on a device that really can't run another viable OS, they go hand and hand and it's really unacceptable for device manufacturers to point at the OS as an excuse.

[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
If I created confusion here, I apologize. I did not mean to say "look my tablet is perfect and everyone else got short sticks" I do recognize the issues exist, but I wanted share my experience based on the specific scenario. This particular scenario at least to me speak against potential hardware issue that everyone were concerned about i.e. Flash drive being too slow, or perhaps Tegra 3 chip set cannot handle data writing and do anything else because clearly while AirDroid is receiving 1GB+ data with relatively quick speed without causing any noticeable delay on the system.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyclical:
Not sure what I did to my touchpad, but I can't get working again. I was running CM7 3.5 on it. It is not stuck on either a HP Splash screen or the palm.com/ROM error screen.

I tried running WebOS Doctor, and it does it thing, at around 4% it appears to restart the touchpad into to the HP Splash screen, and at 8% it stops and says it cannot restart phone. Tablet has a full charge, using the stock cable etc.

I tried using the fix located here : http://rootzwiki.com/topic/14249-th...8-12-stopped-no-sd-opps-reformat-crap-thread/

And everything appears to be going welll with the instructions until I get to the following

mkdosfs -f 1 -s 64 /dev/store/media

When I try that my computer tells me "no such file or directory". Also tried the fix_dos_fs.sh command and get a message saying "fix_dos_fs.sh: Not Found" message.

Does anyone have any other tips? I ran the Acme Uninstaller and stopped part way into it saying LVM failed, I can't see the touchpad on my laptop like a USB drive either.

Go to sammobile.com, search your device and see what has been released.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emexrulsier:
4.0.4 tbh doesn't really add much to the phone vs 4.0.3 anyways. I am more looking forward to the possibility of the rumours of jelly bean coming to the S2 though I hear it's not going to well. The initial testing from Samsung is performance isn't that cracking on dual core devices which could be a reason why we won't see Jelly bean on the S2 even though others like HTC and not mentioned any such performance issues?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moparfreak426:
Ok..... It took a while to get data and mms working after flashing this thing to page plus. Before anyone asks page plus is a prepaid carrier that uses Verizon settings/ towers.... So I was on el29 stock GB 2.3.6 ROM..... And switched to rouge kernal to try to get my old bootanimations from electrify working.... No luck there either still standard silver Android logo..... Anyway, I want to try out some ics.... And have decent battery so probably factory reset after flashing.... Will I lose my flash to page plus? That was such a pain. Hit a guy on here jbgtenn I think to use comm port over internet to get me hooked up cuz aa and ha keys would not stick in dfs or qpst.... I don't want to have to go back thru all that cuz fighting with show internet at mcdonslds at maybe 120kbps if tht is rediculous.... Which is y I tether allot from phone..... I get around 1100kbps.... I need internet for everything! Anyway..... I wanna try iut shadow god's universe ROM.... That's my goal, can it be achieved while still keeping my flash to PP? Also, i'm only familiar with one click rooting.... I soft bricked and one click rooted el29 and managed to keep flash if that's any help. If I don't like ics also, is it 100% safe to go right back to el29 with no bricks.... Etc....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
You should be fine. My phone is on virgin mobile and I never lose my carrier settings when flashing different roms. Like from going to gb from ics and then back to ics. The only thing you will have to fix is the mms settings.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moparfreak426:
So I'd have to fight again to make data and mms work again?:/.... That's the main thing that took so long and what I don't wanna fight with cuz ha and aa keys won't stick... Or wouldn't using qpst or dfs

The title sys it. I was curious if they had said anything in regards of a patch or fix for the Ics ota update. I went stock ota for a few days and went to sprint to see what they would say. The tech handed me the phone back and said root it.

not entirely sure what is wrong with the new OTA but I have also have problems with the new update and when I took it to sprint, the tech said the same thing "you should root it". I told them I should but it's not my fault of hardware or software issues and after some talk (I know the guys at the store), they helped me get a replacement. Hopefully the replacement doesn't have any problems too.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cp320703:
a fix for what? If you don't like the ota run one of the fine, bug free ff18 based roms like blue kuban or goodness. Try cm9 or aokp you don't like those. The only reason you have a "buggy" ics build is because you choose to. That said we didn't see all of these complaints when people were running the ff18 leak, the only thing that has changed is the people running it... furthermore why are you posting on xda asking for a patch? Go to sprint users or sprint forums if that's all you're concerned with and want to complain, they'll listen to you there, I thought this was the place where we solved our own problems... not that I think there's anything wrong with ff18.... now flame away instead of spending the time to search and figure out why you're having the issues you're having when plenty of people are running ff18/ff18 based builds without difficulty or issue

I've ran all ics ROMs my phone just don't get the bandwidth with any of the modems released. I went to ota so I could see if they had an answer for why I got **** download and upload speeds. I can't go in there rocking rujs blu Kuban saying hey my phone won't get a signal anywhere here's my phone and fix it. I miss the roms but I can't get any signal I tried different kernels modems scripts and even garbage off of the app market to improve my signal. Sprint is well aware of it. I posted on xda because people seen to get answers and everything else before people find out. Im not asking a question for devs to fix it im asking the community in the xda q&a section. And it's for our phone correct? So that's why im in the xda forum asking the question.
