[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
3 to 5 days here as well. I would really like to exchange my tablet in store because I don't think the glass is seated well. It's really annoying to see that three weeks after the release of the tablet and they still don't have any in-store.

GOLETA CA - – Pick up in 3 to 5 days

OXNARD CA - – Pick up in 3 to 5 days

SANTA MARIA CA - – Pick up in 3 to 5 days
[Asus Transformer TF700] guitar1969:
Yeah - Its not in stock. I just went to my local Best Buy in Orange CA because of this post to pick up 2 700s and docks and they said they could order it but was not in stock and they checked other best buys in the Orange County and they didn't have stock. The only one they could order is the Grey 32gb and grey dock. They had nothing regarding deliveryt on the Gold one or on the 64 models They said delivery is 7 days for the grey 32 and dock.

No thanks - I will look elsewhere.

Still want to know the quickest way to get one either in store or online - Seems a bit mysterious still.

Sorry if I misled you. It was showing as in stock but now its ship to store.

I bought mine from amazon with one day shipping. Just got it and its awesome.

Hope you find one soon.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Rsmin:
I took back my 201 last night to exchange it for the 700 and was going to do a ship to store but they said the quickest they could get it to the store would be next Thursday, decided just to have it shipped to the house. After they ordered it they came back and said they expedited the shipping for me and there was no charge to do it. Woke up this morning and it is being delivered today. Couldn't ask for better service from best buy. It is coming from Kentucky and I live in Georgia so that helps.

Well sworkit works nicely for me. It has different types of workouts. And you input the duration and it'll manage the workouts accordingly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TheWerewolf:
No.. this isn't actually a post about the Prime's problems... it's actually about how companies handle things when they screw up. A lot of people here seemed genuinely grateful for what Asus did postfacto... I'm not one of them because my bar is set higher. I expect more from the companies I buy from - well, when it's a $500 tablet anyway.

Here's an example of where the bar SHOULD be set.

A month or so ago, Google announced the Q - basically their version of the Roku or the AppleTV. Thing is, while it's innovative design, it kind of sucked at being an actual Internet appliance. Google admitted the Q was shipped too soon and had significant problems. They halted production.. and here's the kicker - everyone will get a free replacement. They don't even have to return the original. And if you preordered and haven't gotten yours, you get a free one.

Here's the letter they sent out:

We have an important update about your Nexus Q pre-order.

When we announced Nexus Q at Google I/O, we gave away devices to attendees for an early preview. The industrial design and hardware were met with great enthusiasm. We also heard initial feedback from users that they want Nexus Q to do even more than it does today. In response, we have decided to postpone the consumer launch of Nexus Q while we work on making it even better.

To thank you for your early interest, we'd like to extend the Nexus Q preview to our pre-order customers and send you a free device. If you had other items in your order, your credit card will be charged for those items only.

Your Nexus Q will be on its way soon and you will receive a notification and tracking number from Google Play when it ships.

The Nexus Q Team

So, they're giving away free replacements for everyone who has one - who got them for FREE... and everyone who preordered... also gets one for free.

They certainly didn't need to do this. Most people understood that the problems with the Q were relatively minor and most could be fixed with software upgrades... not to mention, the people who got theirs at Google IO didn't actually pay for them. Not an issue - not even a discussion point - Google wants to make sure you stay loyal and stick with them. Anything to make the customer happy. No attempt to try and gloss over the problem or shirk responsibility.

THAT'S customer service, amigos. No screwing around with buckshee hacks. No 'we didn't mean it when we said you have a GPS..'

That's the bar we should set and demand.

http://www.theverge.com/2012/7/31/3207482/nexus-q-consumer-launch-delayed

PS: You'll notice I'm here telling you how great Google is rather than being out there telling others how great Asus is? That's why it's important to encourage customer loyalty... And I don't even HAVE a Q (not available in this country).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zenaxe:
To be fair to ASUS, Google is a $207Billion company with almost $40B a year in revenue. The future of the company is hardly riding on them making a profit on their Nexus Q, heck it could be that no one's job is even riding on it given their business situation. Asus on the other hand is like a $6B company in US funds. Google could absorb financial hits that would completely BK or force massive layoffs at many other companies (like ASUS) without blinking. I think ASUS blew it with their QA on recent units but they have made some effort to try to set things right.

You can demand and expect completely-out-of-touch-with-the-rest-of-the-industry replacement/recall policies but you'll probably disappointed most of your life. Even mighty Apple told people they were holding their phones wrong when Antennagate hit. It probably makes more sense to learn your lesson and just move on.

To be honest, I think the world has enough/too many $100B+ companies already.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cvflowe:
Well said! In my opinion they would gain a stronger customer base.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hero_of_the_day:
Yeah, I would never expect a smaller company like ASUS to be able to do something like this. But, the Prime really is such a mess in my eyes that it would take something drastic to get me to buy another ASUS product. When you have a seemingly pretty faulty device combined with the absolute horrid customer support (19 days now they've had mine, still waiting for parts) you lose me as a customer. Granted, I also have a faulty ASUS motherboard in my computer, so I have another reason to never buy from them again since that's 2 for 2 of the ASUS products I've ever owned having issues.

If things are better on the Infinity as far as GPS, wifi, blu tooth, build quality (like rear cameras not breaking), then ASUS should just bite the bullet and kill the TF201 and give at least early adopters a trade in. That's what it would take to make me happy, and even then they would still have a huge problem with their repair service. But, at least I would have a better chance of not ever having to deal with them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wifesabitch:
This would never happen with Asus not because of money but simply because they don't give a f*ck about their customers.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] hero_of_the_day:
That's honestly how I feel, and I feel that way 100% because of their terrible customer support. I understand things go wrong especially in this fairly new market of Android tablets. That's the time for your customer service to shine. Instead, they show us how much they care about us by having the worst service I've ever heard of.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] knowaczark:
ASUS Customer service in not. They could give a rat ask about problems with the Prime.

It is not a matter of how big Google is versus Asus. It is simply doing what is right. The Prime is junk. Asus knows it is junk. Fix it, or replace it.

We paid $500 for this tablet and anyone with any common sense would expect value for their money.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AnimeLoverX:
Hey guys

So currently I'm using a Gnex w/ a minor crack in the screen. I am honestly thinking of upgrading to the S3 due to a opportunity.

However, since the Gnex is from google compared to S3 from samsung, I know the Gnex will get more support apps and ROM wise. right?

Also, I don't really like to upgrade too often... so would switching to S3 be a smart move? since I heard the new google phone might come out w/ android 5.0

In terms of longevity, which phone should I stick with? in terms of support, accessories and that I won't feel it's outdated

Cheers in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] atifsh:
go to galaxy s2 forum and see how much development is there. S3 also like S2 is very very popular even being this new.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AnimeLoverX:
yes I know the S2 was very popular

but would google's flagship phone be even more?

No they aren't. Xperia Play isn't getting ICS. They say it's because of the games compatibility, but I don't think that it is so big problem. Games can be updated...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NIMBAH:
No its because they believed that the requirements were too great for a gaming phone. They thought there would be performance issues running ICS and playing PlayStation games.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
Hi guys,

I want to share how I tested Ears (Music Search widget) and Wallet on the Nexus phone I recently purchased directly from Google.

I live in Montreal Canada and use Bell Canada as service provider. Today I went to Bestbuy in Plattsburgh and purchased a T-Mobile SIM card with a one month 30$ prepaid unlimited data plan. I'm going next week to United States for a week vacation and I wanted to have unlimited data available on the road.

My phone is stock, not rooted or CWM installed. The idea was to see if Wallet and any other hidden apps will stay functional when I revert back to Bell SIM card. I use a VPN at home so I have access to all US services (Play Music, etc.) Google offers. After initial JB update done on Bell with VPN enabled for Wi-Fi, the Wallet was hidden and even if Music Search was listed into installed apps, it did not showed into widgets list.

Once the guy at Bestbuy activated my SIM card, I rebooted the phone and voila, Wallet and Ears popped as available. I also noticed another hidden app, Play Magazines. There is nothing fancy about it, it links to magazine subscriptions offered in Google Play.

With T-Mobile SIM card on, I configured Wallet and link it to my Google Apps account, everything worked properly:

I also tested the Music Search widget, everything worked properly.

Next, I shut down the phone and switched the SIM card to Bell. When I tried to open Wallet, I was greeted by this message:

However, the Music Search widget continued to work properly while on Bell network:

At least I got Ears working properly, without the rebooting issue others mentioned (the app will lock itself). BTW, no idea why people are referring to "unfreeze/freeze app", there is no such thing in Package Manager commands:

pm enable PACKAGE_OR_COMPONENT
pm disable PACKAGE_OR_COMPONENT

In conclusion, it sucks to be a Canuck and own a Nexus. Wallet is so awesome and we are prohibited to use it. I was reading on another Canadian mobile site that the usual "mobile" suspects (Bell, Rogers, Telus, etc.) plan create the "Mobile Wallet" app... a poor attempt to emulate Google Wallet in Canada. It will probably have a crazy ugly interface, remember the Visa one that looked like it was coded by a 5 years old kid. Anything they can do to stop users take advantage to a cool product like Google Wallet and get rich by pocketing the fees Google would otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
Man I wish Google wallet was working in Canada would make things so much easier.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
Wallet fails to add money using my Canadian credit card that has a US billing address. Another "V" for canucks. :victory: :D

I'll buy a sandwich at McDonald's with the $10 I have not, just for kicks. Not sure I can afford a combo, heh. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veyka:
Wish they would enable wallet over here in the UK, but I bet the carriers was to implement some solution of their own as always.

As far as freeze/unfreeze, that's what titanium backup called disabling applications before it could be done natively, seems the names stuck.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
How do you do it natively?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Puck24:
Just wanted to share my experience with Google Ears.

I flashed yakju 4.0.2 a way back (it came with yakjuxw). 4.0.4 came via OTA and I manually flashed JB (the 4.1.1 version). The phone is only unlocked and rooted. I'm in Croatia and I've never had an issue with Google Ears. I put the widget on my screen the first day I found it and the app never froze after a reboot. Curious, huh?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netbuzz:
Not sure what "natively" is referring to but let me see if I can expand on this comment.

Many apps come installed as part of the phone. These are called system apps. What you install are called user apps. When you go to uninstall apps, you can only remove user apps.

If you root you phone, you can take advantage of an app like Titanium Backup. One of many great function is that you can freeze or even uninstall system apps with it. It is recommended that you freeze the app first before permanently removing it. Freezing an app make is invisible to the phone, even though the files are still there. Unfreezing the app just makes it visible again.

So, you can freeze Wallet and it won't bug you, and then you can unfreeze it next time you go on vacation to USA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patruns:
There is not a lot of use for Wallet in the US at the moment, at least not with NFC. As to your $30 unlimited data plan, you realize your 4G is capped, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
How does "freezing" or "defrosting" work? How does Titanium do it? What property does it change in the app so that it is frozen or defrosted? I would like to be able to do this without Titanium.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] el_charlie:
You can use adb to issue the commands OP wrote in the first post: "pm enable /system/app/GoogleEars.apk"

I think that's the syntax.

Maybe some script at boot with a kernel that supports init.d folder I assume.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Strange. I tried that with Wallet and it didn't work. I'll give it another shot. Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Billie Jean (Y) :P

Is there any way to get Google Ears to work in Finland? :/ somehow titanium ROM Toolbox cannot find the google music widget app so I can't unfreeze it and also Google Music Player doesn't show music information sometimes.. :/

even by using DroidVPN I can't install or update Google Ears via Google Play..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
Ya, they have a 5Gb limit, if that is what you are referring to. I should "survive" with it for a week. :)

I don't care about download speed, I just want to be able to read my emails and use Google Now.

Yes, that is what I used to do on my Galaxy S2. I always used a terminal as is much easier to control and see what is going on, on your phone.

You could also install a recent .apk, it will make the Wallet show. Then, revert the update to previous version and Wallet will remain visible. It will not work though, you will see the error popup message I posted into OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
Do you have a link for Google Ears in Play store? I could not find it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
No I don't have, maybe the Google Ears app was unusable because I couldn't be able to install it again, so I searched the app from google and I found it then I installed it and it works now.. :)

I used DroidVPN to update Google Music and I deforst the google apps then I installed them again from /system/app/ but I think some of those files will be gone again when I reboot my Galaxy Nexus because once them was on my phone 2 or 3 days but then suddenly them was gone I rebooted my Nexus many times then and I installed the google apps from system/apps so I din't defrost them with any app..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
Just to let you know, Music Search works properly for me even if I reboot the phone on Bell network.

There is something weird though. When I find the song, if I click on the widget it will try to open the Play Store app then move to Chrome browser instead. Does anyone else has the same issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
OK.. have you selected sometimes "every time" when it's asking that with what app you want to open the link? I don't have that issue so I don't really know how to fix it..

Delete Chrome and then install it again maybe then it's fixed..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
So you are telling me that when you click on the found song image, it will open Play Store for you?

I did not selected to have Chrome open anything by default, I always use the choice once.

Play Store shows only Apps on my phone, yours shows other stuff also?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] veyka:
The enable/disable button in Android since ICS is what I meant by native, which is using the pm commands on the back end as mentioned in this thread
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Okay.., I select "choose once" always too and I have installed Google Chrome what I don't even use but for me it opens Google Play Store..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
See attached.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TECK:
I think Google did something to the Store and Wallet. I updated to the new version and now Music Search is gone, as well any apps not supported on Canada. Wallet does not work on Bell, same error message with new version.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arses:
Hi

I am going to buy one.

Which details should I know for buying this tablet?

About everything like srial number or manufacturer country or ....

Thanks for guiding me.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turdbogls:
what do you mean? as long as you are happy with the specs and form factor, just buy it.

play with it extensively for the first week and make sure nothing fails on it.

also, dont be put off by the little lags here and there (expecially in the browser or when downloading an app) it is most likely a software issue and will be fixed fairly soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mahsan988:
Alright, before anyone tries to bash me for not searching the thread. I want to let you know I spend an hour searching the forums for my question exactly.

Is there anyone out there who has compared the stock 1850 mAh battery to the extended 2100 mAh one?

I have had stock since December. And I am now completely sick of the battery life. 4.0.4 did improve the battery life but it is still dismal. I have the Galaxy S3 for my work phone and that phone's battery runs laps around the Nexus. And that battery is 2100 mAh.

My S3 is always easily getting me through 1.5 - 2 days with more usage than my Nexus!!! Both phones have the same exact settings. (4G always on, GPS always on, WiFi on at home, Google sync on for everything, Skype on all day).

My biggest complaint is on the days where I am not home or at work. Whenever I go out, I don't use my phone so that I can leave some battery there to make sure that I am able to make calls if needed. And even that doesn't work most of the time. My phone will still die before I call it a night. I love the Nexus, and I cannot wait for Jellybean and would like to keep this phone for a long time (even though I have an upgrade available). I am basically trying to decide between extended battery or the external charger with a spare battery option. I would much rather get the extended battery because I am not too keen on carrying an extra battery with me. I would rather put in the extended battery and forget about it. I understand that theoretically the increase in battery is only 13% but to me that doesn't mean **** since the S3 lasts me 2-3 times longer than the Nexus with the same exact settings. So in real world usage, how much of an increase is the extended battery?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n_topher:
I'm barely able to get through a full day with the extended battery. I mainly use my phone during the day on WiFi. With the activity level that you posted, I don't think the 2100 mAh would be a huge improvement on battery life (maybe an extra hour tops?). Also, I don't like the little hump that it gets with the extended battery attached. I'm running mRom 4.1.1 at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Scott Sawyer:
When I got my nexus in May, I thought I would run the stock battery for a while, but it was terrible for me. In a week, I bought the bigger battery. I wanted to keep the slim profile, so I went with the 2150 with the slightly bumped door, don't even notice the size difference.

The bigger battery makes a big difference for me. Can't say exactly how much longer, but definitely better. I also purchased Juice Defender Ultimate. After tweaking the settings, it reports nearly double the battery. Sometimes it takes a minute to connect to a network if it has my radios off, but not a huge issue for me.

In all, I'd say the nexus is pretty rough on battery. Big screen and 4g, what are you going to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fluidd:
Extended Battery 2000mah.. i'm easily getting 24+ hours with moderate usage with data on, sync on, location settings on, 60% brightness..

bigxie 4.1.1 rom + imoseyon 4.2 kernel.. overall very happy with it..

i've had the extended battery for 2 mths now so i guess its conditioned now.

i can actually use my phone and not worry about the battery dying..

i have the s3 as well, but don't really use it yet because i am still waiting for my case to ship from china..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] _hendrix:
Battery

The 2100 is nice to have just because it doesn't add a lot of bulk. But I only get 18 hours max.
