I still couldn’t figure out all the fuss about $100 or so headphones vs average $20-$40 headphones. I don’t listen much of the music but when I do they pretty much sound the same to me..I don’t see much differences between lets say ones costing a lot and cheaper one. Only the way they feel in your ear is what I noticed..anyhow start with cheaper version and see how it goes is what I would say..

beats earphones are best
[General Accessories] richyb86:
I have read posts on loads of sites for the past week.. Had a pair of soundmagic e10's.. Brilliant sound if a little uncomfortable but for 35 quid... Brilliant. Also had a pair of sennys cx300ii... Ok not brilliant but had a good fit and not bulky. But just got my girlfriend to order me some klipsch s4i for my birthday.. Hoping for soundmagic sound with a really good fit. Seems to be what people are saying and for 60 quid its the most I would pay for earphones

Sent from my awesome S3.
[General Accessories] jRi0T68:
I have S4i and find the bass to muddy out vocals a bit. The highs are also not superb, but other than that, very enjoyable earphones. I do prefer my Shure SE215's in all aspects, though. Of you could find those for the same price, like I did, I'd expect you to be happier with the Shure.

This is only relevant if you are "rooted" AND using the stock email app. Back in 8/2010 at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=10809 it was reported that unencrypted passwords for the stock email app in Honeycomb were being held in /data/system/accounts.db. The situation carried forward into ICS and in JB it is still there but the file has moved to /data/system/users/0/accounts.db. X-plore File Manager (free) lets you drill down to the account table.

If you delete the email account in the app the account record is deleted. K9 email app doesn't have this problem.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legacyweapon:
I am current using ansar's rom on my HTC Arrive. This should grant me as much of a full of an unlock as is possible on a Windows Phone device (if I understand correctly). This implies I should be able to customize or change the "All other notifications" sound alert. I was curious as to if anyone already had a tool to do this or if they knew the registry key to edit to achieve the desired effect. Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
There are a number of tools that can do this. One of the oldest is called Advanced Config, but I think it'll still work on Ansar's ROMs. I forget the exact registry path, but it's probably listed in the registry hacks thread on the dev&hacking forum.

It's not software bug, I'm pretty sure.

Something broken inside, and it'll be great if they don't need to replace the dispaly, because it's a bit too expensive.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] [bman123]:
So ill explain a little. I keep stuff off until I need it on, examples. Wifi, mobile data,Bluetooth, GPS, sync, back ground data. If I need to use it I turn it on when I'm done I turn it off. I've tried 4 different ics roms and I get **** battery life on every one. Slim ics, reMICS, broccoli and dark Knight. I get great battery life on the stock rooted, debloated Odin rom. My battery is good, it doesn't have a bulge in it at all and doesn't spin when you flick it so I know its not the battery.

I try to run the roms for a couple days and only flash when I have a full charge battery. Is it just 4.0 roms in general that get bad battery life or do I need to try something else in settings?

On ics I get big battery drain even in standby mode. I don't download any new apps other then facebook. I'm just lost because this battery is huge and should last a long time. Not to mention I always have mms issues on ics and I've tried every setting I can find online to fix it in the apn.

On GB I last all day, mms always works too. I just hate to have to use GB when ics looks so much better any input would be appreciated

qkster - I am not sure if I see the connection between your reply and OP's question... Your links point to Legend 3 ROM, Mind of Mac ROM, and Ethereal 1.4...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] [bman123]:
Yeah I was thinking the same thing lol. I think he posted those roms since they do look like ICS but are really GB. I like the ICS look but damn I cant make it thru a day on a full charge and my MMS never works right, I am going to flash ethereal now after i odin back to stock once again
[Samsung Infuse 4G] whois.christopher:
I do agree with your observation on the battery life... I was able to get my stock ROM to last me two days but was not able to do that with the ICS ROM... I have been mocking with whole bunch configurations - setting CPU governor to "Conservative", playing with auto brightness levels to minimize battery spent for "Display", installed Ad-Free and all that... So far it's looking like day-and-half for me... :(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
It was meant to be kinda funny, kinda serious.

OP has some concern regarding battery life and some functions of the phone not working properly.

I think there is still some work to be done yet. ICS builds have only been introduced recently. There is some work on the end users part to make it work properly.

(no slam or criticism meant on ICS)

I put up a couple of links to GB that feels like ICS but just about everything works. And battery stability is kinda there.

re: the edit build.prop line: When you press about phone, it will say firmware 4.0.4 (ICS) or 4.1.1(JB) - in essence - pretending you have ics or jb - if only in name.

:D

If you're just looking for show, how many people will know the jb/ics/gb difference?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] whois.christopher:
Got it and completely agree... Most can't tell the difference between GB/ICS/JB, especially with all the launchers and themes.

Thank you.

Has anyone attempted to stream netflix while using a Bluetooth headset? When I tried this netflix bufferred every 20 seconds or so and when it wasn't buffering, the video was choppy and audio was not in sync. Using wired headset it worked flawless.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
Holy sh@t I thought I was the only one who realized this. I wifi netflix and bluetooth to Jambox and it sucks. Buffers a lot and delayed sound. It even happens when playing a game with the Jambox connected. I take the bluetooth off and it's perfect.
[Asus Transformer TF700] NikAmi:
I can't even use the Netflix app because the interface is sooooooo slow. It literally takes five to ten seconds to respond to touch inputs and when I try to scroll through lines of movies/shows, my finger travels the entire screen and the row moves only one or two places over. It's really annoying.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Einride:
Apparently enabling forced GPU rendering in settings -> developer options will help with Netflix performance. It might cause issues with other apps though, so keep that in mind.
[Asus Transformer TF700] newellj79:
This is the same hardware problem that the prime had. You may notice it on you tube as well. It's because bt/wifi share a antenna. That said I did play around with mine for a few minutes and did not have the problem. Granted I'm sitting pretty close to the router. Check this out.... run the netspeed app to see what you get with bt off. Then start streaming some music to your bt headphones for google music and run netspeed while it's streaming. You will probablly notice a signifcant decrease. :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] fsured:
What was mentioned about sharing the same hardware with the wifi/bt in the prime is correct. They use the same chip to decode both signals. So when both are being used at the same time the process slows down for both signals. This is a common occurrence among many portable devices and not just any Asus tablet. I've seen it on my cell phones also. Manufactures are moving to this combined chip process to save in both cost and shrink the size of the devices for smaller cases.

Now having said that, these chips are designed to function with both signals at the same time. If yours is experiencing horrible performance then return it for another. Don't wait for software fixes because they won't fix the hardware. It might improve but chances are higher it won't be fixed. If you wait your return for exchange window may pass.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
Iust got an email from B&H about the issue and they said I can get a refund or exchange but they dont know when they are recieving the next batch. Im probably gonna get a refund and buy one elsewhere. Sucks
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
Does anyone have a Tf700 that actually streams movies over wifi and bluetooth to speaker, ear buds or anything successfully. I don't want to wait for an exchange if no one can successfully accomplish it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
I just did a wifi speed test without bluetooth on and my speed was 28mbs

With wifi on and bluetooth streaming music to my jambox the score dropped to 0.39mbs

That's crazy.

I used the speedtest.net app.

And enabling the gpu in the developer section didn't make any difference.
[Asus Transformer TF700] ChadJamesR:
I've had my Infinity for a few days now and don't have any problems watching netflix while on my blue tooth headset. I always watch Netflix for about an hour in the morning when I'm working out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
Thanks that's what I needed. Its a hardware issue then. Like someone stated before. Just needed someone to try it out.
[Asus Transformer TF700] user311:
I am also getting tons of lag and constant disconnects/buffering when trying to watch HBO go or netflix over my stereo Bluetooth headset. I was wondering if there were others that have successfully gotten video to play while using a bluetooth headset other than that one poster. Is it just a defective unit that I received or are other people experiencing the same thing? Do you guys think its worth going thru the trouble of returning the tablet? I guess I am mainly trying to estimate the chances of getting another tablet that has the same issue.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cipherbreak:
I think any hardware issue is worth going through the trouble for. If you paid $500 for the tab, you might as well ensure everything works. The software can be fixed through official and third-party options but the hardware won't get any better.
[Asus Transformer TF700] user311:
Thanks for the reply. Yea, thats pretty much what I was thinking. Its just that the 64GB model is sold out from Tigerdirect and I didn't want to go w/o a tablet until they got them in stock.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
B&H is trying to convince me its my router. They say 28mbs isn't fast enough to stream wifi and Bluetooth at the same time. Streaming wifi has nothing to do with Bluetooth. I asked them to make me a RMA tag so I can ship it back.

I'm waiting for their response. If it isn't enough can someone tell me. I don't want to get the same problem I had with the prime.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
Can someone run a speedtest on their wifi and then on the wifi while streaming sound to a Bluetooth device to see if there is a drastic decrease in download speed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] user311:
Have you tried calling 1-888-678-3688 for help? Its asus' support line. I was told to call that from tigerdirect before they could issue a return. I won't be able to call until after work today though because I forgot my tablet at home >.> But maybe they'll have something to say regarding the matter.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Eroc162:
I just called the number and spoke toa Asus representative and here is what they told me

" The Asus Infinity TF700 is not designed to do this because the antenna will cause interference with each other since they both run off the same antenna."

WOW I can do this on my G2x. This disappoints me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] user311:
Thats completely unacceptable. I'll give them a call when I get home.
[Asus Transformer TF700] newellj79:
This is how the 300 was advertised. One at a time, not both. I had this problem horribly on the prime. On the infinity I drop from 28mbs without bt to 10 with it. I'm still able to stream just fine so far.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2-bits:
I've had my nexus 7 for about 5 days now since receiving it from the Google Play store. Aside from an occasional screen flicker I have absolutely no problems with it. Except...

Whenever I try to do a Google search through my Nexus 7, I find that I cannot click the links. The results for my query appear just fine, I can scroll through the results and switch from Search to Images, News, and what have you, but actually pressing the results does nothing. It's clear that it is registering my taps because if I hold my finger down long enough, it selects the text under it. Occasionally if I spastically tap the screen, Google chrome opens up and something actually happens.

Potentially unrelated, but my Tablet gets a little warm after continuous use. Not sure if that means anything or is out of the ordinary at all.

My girlfriend has the same tablet and this does not happen on hers, and through my searches I've not found any solution to this.

Any ideas? I would think that this is some kind of hardware bug except I have no issues in any application except this one.

edit: Also, I've done a factory reset of my tablet and compared the google search app version that my girlfriend and I are using. We are using the exact same version, 2.0.0.402395
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2-bits:
Somehow, search is working properly for the first time since I owned the tablet. Since doing a factory reset didn't work, I thought I would try recovery mode. I turned the tablet off, pressed the power button and the down key, and selected recovery mode from the options. After waiting for my device to boot up, Search now mysteriously works without having done anything else. I hope this helps someone... somehow.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Flash619:
Were you able to solve this? The volume up button on the volume rocker is mushy on mine. I can feel it barely, push down if I look for it, but it goes so far down that its flush on that side, with the plastic back plate.

Would this be a legitimate reason to ask for a replacement via warrenty? Or is this too common for that. :confused:

I may wait and see if it gets worst. If anything it just makes volume up harder to bump by accident. But I find it annoying just the same. >_>

Mine is exactly the same way. I got mine from a local best buy. Seems the solution is "deal with it"
[Asus Transformer TF700] paddycr:
My volume button is okay but the power button is definitely mushy. I am on the fence as to what to do about it. Although it is not a big deal at present I am worried that it could be a sign of problems in the future. If my power button were to stop working in say 3 months time and I tried to RMA it I think there would be a good chance that ASUS would say that it is 'customer induced damage'. Other than that my Infinity is perfect - I am not sure whether this would be a crazy thing to return it for :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] pileot:
I see this as potentially problematic. Does anyone have a teardown of this thing? I'd be interested in if this is an easy fix or should i return it and try another one (still within my 14 day return window)
[Asus Transformer TF700] henbone11:
my gf's is the same way. in fact, the power button has 0 spring back in it. seemingly just stays down flush with the chassis. it works, but feels odd. luckily the buttons on mine are all springy and feel fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] silverball.slayer:
The volume buttons on my TF700 absolutely suck and are difficult to use. I have to press hard just to get them to respond. The power button is fine however.

I think over time the volume buttons would just stop working altogether at this rate...

[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
I dont really use my volume rockers. I use an app called Audio Manager Pro which has widgets to set the volume for specific sounds. All up, silent, just for movies, just for music, etc. You can set up a widget for anything you want. If you want to watch a movie, and dont want to hear the alert notifications, you can set up preset for that as well. Its a great app and usually one of the first apps i install when i set up my devices.

Is there a case on it that's making it feel mushy?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
The little buttons are kind of useless.

That volume rocker is difficult to operate for this user.

I can never figure out whats up and whats down.

Mobiletechreview kind of raved about the volume rocker being better.

I wish it was on the right upper side in landscape with the Asus logo on the bottom.

Also I wish the power button was on the left upper side in landscape (Asus logo and port on bottom)

These buttons being on the top edge IMO is the worst spot for them.

...and again that 40 pin keyboard dock port provided with no micro USB alternative

is a total pain in the ass...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
I think they pushed out a bad batch of tabs with defective rockers. They don't have these in our town locally anywhere, so I can't check another unit, but the replacement I got from amazon was just as bad as the previous one. I would love it if someone could find one that felt right to know if this is by design or a general fault.
[Asus Transformer TF700] cheyennemtn:
Takes awhile getting use to as I have big hands. They should of had two separate buttons for volume IMO - Mushy-YES !

[Asus Transformer TF700] wpbear:
down is clicky, up is mushy.
[Asus Transformer TF700] madsquabbles:
seems mine had gotten worse and had to exchange it. it wouldn't even respond unless i pressed extremely hard on it. the down worked fine.

sadly #2 is just as bad and this one has worse bleed as i can see it a 15% brightness with normal usage. also on dock #2 as the first one i had kept draining even when not docked (down to 0 overnight with no use at all - i had the same problems with a tf101 dock).

seems i'm just having bad luck with asus tablets. i've bought 3 samsung tablets and luckily had 3 good ones (one used). with asus i'm on #9 with none worth parting $500 for.

congrats to you guys for getting good ones, but seems asus just doesn't like me.

[Asus Transformer TF700] dzajic:
Volume rocker becomes nearly unusable

I've been looking at the Infinity at my local Bestbuy, and the rocker is completely limp, loose and has no tactile feedback whatsoever. When pressed, the volume goes down by multiple steps because it is inevitably depressed for too long. What a piece of junk!

Why can't anyone come close to the iPad at even the same price? Is Apple selling below cost? I really want Android, but there isn't even one decent tablet option.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
so why not just get an ipad?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Underwater Mike:
No, Crapple isn't selling below cost. And those things are made in Malaysia, which is no better than Taiwan or PRC in assembling electronics (unlike Korea or Japan, which rock). But, Apple generally cares whether bad QC gives their brand a black eye. Asus doesn't, and I can attest to this from personal experience all the way back to leaky capacitors on a mobo in 2004.

Asus has great, often very innovative ideas, but they are just sloppy as hell at execution. The Asus motto appears to be "good enough," rather than "as good as we can."

1. Your screnshots and the BBS log do not show the same duration/situation.

2. BBS shows deepsleep of > 1 day (83.5 %), so your phone is not awake all the time.

3. Check in menu Settings > Location services and disable all options. Enable GPS only when you need it.

4. Many alarm wakelocks. Do you always use the phone to wake you up/alert you in the morning? Disable the alarm and check if deepsleep and battery life is better.
