[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jordache16:
I am surprised they didn't at least give you a new charger out of the deal. I am assuming they at least tested your charger when you sent it in and if it did in fact check out "OK" then the only other thing I could think of is the wiring to your electrical outlets possibly being reversed polarity (highly unlikely that this is it though b/c you would have most likely ran into issues with other plug in devices). My best guess at this point though is you have a defective charger and it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't do a damn thing with it when you sent it in and just sent the whole thing back to you after they found the supposed CID.

Most of the other issues you mention unfortunately are problems that several of us are suffering from based on what I have seen (ANR, random reboots, light bleed, screen tearing) and I am not sure ASUS is able to actually do anything about them. The light bleed issue I know is hit or miss, you either have it or you don't. I had an Amethyst Gray Prime for a short while before my Champagne Gold pre-order arrived and the Gray one had no light bleed what-so-ever but my Gold one does have some minor light bleed along the right edge. It doesn't bother me so I choose to not get worked up over it. As far as the software related issues go, all we can do is hope for an OTA update that will fix some of them.

One thing I know is that you're not in this boat alone, I have seen numerous threads about people having major issues and complaints around ASUS' RMA process. As much as I hate Apple the one nice thing with them is you would have never gone through this BS with them. You could have walked into an Apple store with your iPad, said "hey look at this light bleed, give me a new one" and they would gladly replaced it on the spot with a new one (usually a refurbished one). They still do a quick once over to check for water damage or other types of CID but as long as it checks out OK you are walking out of the store with a new device.

One last thing, I noticed in the screenshot from your original post they have "TF101" listed as the model number, must have been a typo or something, but I just found that interesting.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
You're right, I was surprised too I would of thought they would of done a new charger just to cover their asses, because if this charger was to burst into flames then they would have a legal case on their hands and yes I would have no problem going down the legal route. I reported the issue and it's been into a repair centre they have supposedly cleared it and said that it was okay.

I know and understand a lot of people are having issues with the ANR's, random reboots and screen tearing but some people don't have them so they MIGHT have a hardware difference and thus able to make a minor change what fixes the issue. However light bleed can definitely be fixed so can the awful microphone recording, wi-fi sleep issue/bug which I assume is hardware because my software tells it NOT to do this. I'm waiting for an OTA but it seems to be taking forever and I can't even run test/beta builds because I'm in the UK so it takes a bit longer for me to see results than most Americans.

Yeah, I've spotted a hell of a lot of threads in regards to their RMA proceedure, Gary or Tien if any of you see this exact paragraph you might want to bring the RMA process up somehow in a meeting because it's costly for you having to do all of the shipping costs and also it pisses off your "Valued" customers which is really not a good thing.

I thought that was slightly odd that they listed it as a TF101, I just assumed the incompetent fool who did my "repair" made a mistake. ^_^ I was messing around on my cousins iPad yesterday and I never saw any light bleed, no screen tearing, random reboots, charger blocks burning up and the microphone is perfectly crystal clear which put's Asus's prime to shame :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
I just received a reply from my complaint form with the following:

Dear Mr. XXX

I am sorry to hear you are having such a bad experience with the repair and service.

I have thorougly read the topic on XDA and can't say that this is the normal procedure at the repair centre. Please allow us to apologise.

It is very understandable that you do not wish to go trough this procedure again, but the only advise I can give you is to book the device in for repair again.

Should you need any further assistance please let me know.

Kind regards,
ASUS Service Team

I've replied to their email mentioning my distrust in the repair center and mentioned/asked about if they can exchange the device for a TF700T with a small fee on top... let's hope they do this route as the TF700T looks like a much more finished product or lets say fixed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Yuhfhrh:
Please keep us informed :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
It seems they don't have any form of exchange available currently.

I've been in contact with the service team since that reply and he's kindly given me the address to do a formal postal complaint to the ceo of the complaints department. As soon as I get another reply back I'm going to request a replacement charger/cable ASAP due to it's fire risk/health and safety and also because I can't connect my table to my computer, this actually means I can't even root my tablet so I can't use Titanium backup to restore.

I'll get a formal complaint written up soon and post it, they might of thought at first that I would give in fast and easy but no... I go right to the end!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Balur:
So just a small suggestion from someone who has worked in support (not with asus) before, requesting the contact information of "The CEO of" or "The President or" is just going to get an eye roll from the support staff. Your likely to have better luck going on the phone and asking to be escalated, repeatadly then sending a letter.

Also what is likely to happen, you send a letter to the CEO, whose assistant or secretary reads it and realizes it's a support case, who will then route it to a manager of the department, who will then assign it to someone on the support staff. The person you want to read it will probably never know it existed and it will just create a week or two delay in the process. If you need to file a formal complaint your likely to get a better response externally through a local consumer protection agency (or even the media). Of course I may just be cynical, and Asus may be a more responsible company then I'm used to dealing with.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
I've called up 4 times and each time I ask for it to be escelated even higher they say everything has been done and that there was no one higher, I sent the letter off last week and there has been no reply what so ever so I'm going to give them a call again tomorrow if they don't do anything then I'll be going to contact Laksys about a full refund because it's just stupid.

I still have a consumer rights and trading standards options aswell. I'll keep updating this thread.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
I e-mailed Laskys and got a reply earlier today, I'm not sure what to reply to them but I would of thought I am within my right to ask for a full refund because I'm having countless issues and I stuck it out to see if GPS could be resolved by a firmware patch, the product is faulty all over.

How should I respond to this message?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gazpel:
I'm not familiar with british consumer protection laws, but i'd say you have a contract with the seller, not with asus. So if they cannot fix the products faults within a reasonable amount of time (you should set a deadline by snailmail) or send it back faulty more than once, then i'd return it to them and demand a full refund.

Whatever happens between the seller and asus should not be of your concern. If they do not refund, get help from a consumer protection agency or a lawyer.

Another option would be to ask them if they would be willing to exchange the prime for an infinity (including a small fee from you).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
Thanks for your reply, that is exactly what I thought, I'll read up on the right laws and acts to try and work it out.

check you PM

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
Thank you very much for that, I learnt a few things from reading it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hyflex:
Hey all, an update for you:

- On the 17th of August I contacted Lasksys (place of purchase) about a full refund.

- On the 20th of August they finally responded but rejected a full refund.

- On the 21st of August I replied to them demanding a full refund and telling them Asus are no longer dealing with it, I have a legal product contract with them not with ASUS.

- I received no reply within 48 hours so I gave them a call and asked why I had received no reply, he contacted the returns department and said I would get a reply within another 48 hours...

- On the 26th I still had recieved no reply at all, I've been really busy lately so I left it and gave them even more time.

- Yesterday, the 6th of September I gave them another call and asked for a refund gave them some information and he apologised about them not contacting me and he has set a collection date for Monday and will be issuing a full refund.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Alsybub:
Sorry if this has already been mentioned, for those who have a problem with the dock hinge wobbling you can simply pull the two rear rubber pads off and just tighten the two screws underneath. I was about to RMA mine when I thought I'd just have a quick look. It's actually better than new. It only takes a minute or two and the rubber pads stick straight back on. If they don't just warm up the glue with a lighter. You can't tell that the pads were ever removed.

Don't tighten too much though. You don't want to tear the threads.

I hope that helps some people.

Does anyone know of any apps or possible ways we could run games at lower than native resolution on the A700 tabs. Cause I think at 720P, games would run great on this tab. Currently as we all know most THD games run ok but could be a lot better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] achan68:
Google Now currently looks in my calendar and display cards based on certain calendar entries. This has happens for meeting invites and some calendar items, but I seemed to remember from one of the Google IO sessions that it would also display the Travel Card and flight information if there was calendar entry with flight dates/times/airline number...right now it doesn't do this even if all my flight information is in the calendar.

Right now the only time I see the travel card is if I do a manual search for the flight, and only on the same day...am I remembering it wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krazykeyur:
According to http://www.google.com/landing/now/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] achan68:
Thanks...since it pulls up other calendar entries, I just assumed it should do so for all of them. My alzheimers must be acting up again :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lafester:
I'm trying to find a way to use voice to add calendar entries.

Any way to do this either with gn or another app?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Maris_:
You can use the "events" feature by going online to your Google calendar settings and enabling events. Once you enable that feature, set up a contact called Calendar and use the number you were given during setup. You can then just send a voice text to "calendar" with the date, time, and purpose which will create the calendar entry for you.

If you prefer an app, check out voice calendar. The app works ok most of the time but it isn't perfect. I prefer the first option which works every time flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] achan68:
That's an awesome tip...thanks!

Edit: damn...just checked and this is only possible with US mobile phone numbers and I'm in Canada. Still, a great tip!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wjsmaggle:
Holy crap this is the most ingenious workaround I've ever seen. Thank you for this! I didn't even know Google Calendar had this option!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinAlbrecht:
I must be dense, as I don't see where to enable events on the online calendar's settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmarmstr:
I think he means setup the Mobile Setup part of settings on your calendar. Google will text you a conf code that you put in there, then your mobile number is setup to enter calendar events by texting GVENT (48368) from your phone. So make a contact named Calendar with that as the number, then in Google Now tell it to text Calendar with the message details being the event info and it will setup the calendar event for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lafester:
This worked great! Thank you :)

To those confused they will send you a text to confirm your number. Just add that text to your contacts and name it calendar or whatever you want. Then text them the info and they add it to your calender for you. Nice! I'm surprised at how accurate gn is with voice recognition. this actually works well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cooperstar:
prwarly quality

What a great tip - thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinAlbrecht:
Thanks for the explaination. Now I am waiting for the confirmation text ~?~.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KevinAlbrecht:
Thanks. I finally got the verification code & have set up a "Calendar" contact. Can Anyone give me an example of a command to set a calendar entry? (I am at work, so I dont need to be saying commands to my phone ATM) :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dmarmstr:
Open Google now, say Google. Say "send text to calendar dinner tomorrow night at 5pm". This should set a calendar event for Wednesday at 5pm with subject of dinner

[HTC Sensation XL] hamdir:
I posted the following mods to use on stock ICS 2.31.401.2, all you need is clock work recovery and busybox

Smooth Rosie mods for Sensation XL - Sense 3.6 - base 2.31.401.2 - WVGA - Stock support

The zip files will erase both Odexed Rosie.apk/.odex files and replace them with a single Deodexed Rosie.apk file

Those on official rooted ROMs use the stock Odexed file to restore original Rosie before you apply OTA

In other words this will work for users who are still on stock firmware but unlocked with custom recovery
[HTC Sensation XL] hamdir:
files fixed, for those who asked this mod will kill all kind of stutter during the page scroll effect during homescreen by fully or semi disabling 3d widgets

if you are stock rooted u need clockwork recovery and busybox installed (you can get it from the market)

it should work on all ICS sense 3.6 bases

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
Do your icons in your folders randomly re-order themselves in ICS stock launcher folders?

Mine does, it's really annoying. I like to keep everything in alphabetical order and they will always re-sort themselves randomly. It doesn't happen with folders with only 4-6 icons, but when I put a lot of icons in, it does this.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Um, yeah, as said, deep sleep is automatic. The only reason sleep would be interrupted would be wakelocks. If you're having problems with the device waking too often (Settings->Battery will show this) you can try Better Battery Stats in the market or here on XDA.

I cant find any tutorial on how to potr kernels. So Im asking it in a thread.

Sorry if I posted in wrong place, but no subforum for the Pro.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
Hi! Developing kernels is way to different than just porting ROMs. Also you don't port kernels you develop them from scratch. There's no way to port a kernel into another device.

Here's a very2 basic tutorial on building kernel for Xperia but you still won't understand it without proper knowledge.

http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/

Here's the source code.

http://dl-www.sonymobile.com/cws/download/1/105/457/8/1339505718/4_1_B_0_431_tar.bz2

Take note that source code doesn't contain any modifications compiling that right away would just leave you a replica of stock kernel without overclocking, volting, tweaks etc.

Kernel development is a critical part of android customization and anyone is not recommended to play with it even for average developers. It could harm your device to the point that it would burn out or explode.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SXUsr:
My point was to try asking in the section dedicated to Android development, as you'll probably get better help or pointers than you will by posting it here, and if you've not found anything at all in regards to kernel building/porting then you're obviously not using google correctly. ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rene_ajax:
WoW Riyal, who is this guy I see you everwhere, are you the BEST android developper???

Can u PLZZZ make Arc knight kernel for Xperia Pro ??? I have some money to donate if u want, or help me do and answering questions / problems im facing.

PLz reply thanks!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
I'm not the best android developer in fact I am not an android developer.

I am a server administrator and a programmer and it's just I am also a linux kernel developer.

It just so happens that I am the only and sole android kernel developer which is this active for Xperia Pro. If you don't trust me feel free to approach any other developers like FXP and cross fingers that he would reply to you.

I'll try to look for any arc night sources if I found one I'll guide you if not then try ask the creator of arcnight for it's sources then I'll help you.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
Ok here's a quick tutorial. I am not good at teaching things so I hope you understand that. I would also assume you have at least basic knowledge with linux and compiling stuff. If not then learn it first before proceeding.

1st.

You must have a linux machine. No windows only linux.

2nd.

download arcnight kernel sources here.

https://github.com/Jimbo77/Arc-Night-Kernel--4.1.C.0.7-/zipball/master

3rd.

go to kernel/arch/arm/configs/

You should be able to see lot's of config files there just pick these 2.

ArcKnight_defconfig

semc_iyokan_defconfig

4th.

Now compare both files make sure that everything in semc_iyokan_defconfig should be also in ArcKnight_defconfig

Ex. if a config in arcKnight says

# CONFIG_MACH_SEMC_IYOKAN is not set

while config in semc_iyokan_defconfig says

CONFIG_MACH_SEMC_IYOKAN=y

Then change arcknight's config and match it with iyokan's

5th.

Download eabi here.

https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/subscription?@template=lite

6th

follow everything in here.

http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/

7th.

in the line

on sony's dev page change it instead to

Done.

Note that I am not responsible if you brick your device. You are using a kernel made for Arc/Arc S and also I am not the developer of that kernel to assure you that it doesn't have any changes which would affect any specific device in any way.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rene_ajax:

AND Ive downloaded eabi. Its a .bin file [is that ok?] and I cant open it! How can I open it??
