Interestingly, when I went online to verify, they didn't like my corporate email address, making me have to upload verification (which I won't be able to do until Monday, as I don't have a scanner at home).

However, if I act like a NEW customer looking for a discount, my corporate email address works fine, emailing me the link to my own personal Sprint Store with my 25% discount.

I'm going to go online and chat and see what's up and see if I have to wait until Monday to verify!

Hey Guys,

I need some help here. So basically i have the all new Google Nexus 7 tablet which has just launched. So I am getting an offer to exchange my Nexus 7 for an ASUS EEE Pad Transformer TF101. I was considering switching but was not able to make the descsion, so i need help from you guys on whether switching/exchanging a Nexus 7 for a TF101 Transformer Is worth it? The Transformer has a Dual Core Tegra 2 while as the Nexus 7 has a Quad core Tegra 3. Other than that the Transformer seems better. It has a larger screen with slightly lower PPI, it has a 5 MP camer + front facing one too. It has 16GB internal + expandable storage(not sure if expandable). Build quality and battery life seems equal on both. So i want to know if the Tegra 2 is well performing on the TF101 and whether it can handle the latest games/apps and whether the TF101 lags?

Thanks all!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Drakenhielm:
Do you get the keyboard or just the tablet?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lakshesh96:
The Asus Transformer is also worth taking a look coz its is bundled with features....

But finally it depends upon you that what are your needs as If you want to use it for hardcore gaming then obv. Transformer is the one to go with but if you want a pure Google experience and are GOOGLE FAN then you should stay with the Nexus 7 as it has the latest and coolest features....but in the end u r the 1 who has to make the decission as per ur needs... Happy googling :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] endingcolt007:
just the tablet!!!

does the Tegra 2 lag and stutter with latest apps/games...thts what i actually need to know?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
Even running at stock speed, my TF runs all the games I've played smoothly. ....But there are some newer games optimized for Tegra 3. BTW, I have both the TF and Nexus 7, and they're both awesome in their own way.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Fire Witch:
If it is new or a refurb and not coming from a private/owner seller, I say go for it. You can always buy another Nexus 7 when the price drops. If it is the owner, then maybe you could work out a temporary/trade/try it. If pre-owned does it have any problems. Maybe nothing is wrong and they are just feeling the urge ( you know, that desire for the latest toy). I have noticed that the price for the TF101 has gone up since I bought mine 7 months ago. I will probably buy the N7, due to the urge. But I had better wait for cooler weather. Just paid an electric bill that was over $300:mad:

after using a 7', the 10.01" will seem huge in comparison. I have the keyboard dock, it's cool, with the extra battery, USB & SD slot. But I rarely use it, the soft key pad is great.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lakshesh96:
Actually you should keep the Nexus coz it is new and latest tech by the Android Owner/Developer, so it is a must have tab fr Android geeks as Google has worked hard for putting all those features in such a low rate....and the second reason is that Transformer has become a bit old and isnt the latest technology although it is a good competetor but it is like an old Grand Father with less usability.

....also you will in Starting love the keyboard along but after some time you will see no use of the keyboard....also the keyboard dock after some time becom lose and while carrying both connected it slips(nt personal experience of dock)....well indeed make a good choice which suits you the best.... :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] YeloSub7:
Even though the n7 is a Google device I will probably never buy any tablet smaller than the 10 inch. Same reason I will never buy a phone bigger than 5 inch. Just my two cents.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GalaxySdude:
It depends on your usage model. I have both the TF and N7, and ever since I got the N7 my TF has mostly stayed turned off. However, I don't plan to get rid of the TF either. I mainly use my tablets for browsing and watching downloaded videos. Browsing on the N7 is smooth and buttery, while on the TF it is reasonably quick but the occasional stutter happens more often and is therefore more irritating. The UI on the TF isn't as smooth, but in my experience apps work flawlessly. Videos, on the other hand, look better on the TF. It's not just the screen size, but the contrast seems better as well. The N7 is also easier to hold/handle due to it's small size.

Let me put it this way, if you primarily browse the web or stream most of your content (or love having the latest and greatest OS), stick with the N7. If you need lots of local storage (or are stuck with slow DSL), want to output content to a TV (I use mine to play emulator games with my PS3 controller), or want the optional convenience of the keyboard and the epic battery life that gives you, trade for the TF.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] voyager_s:
I would go ahead and probably swap a nexus 7 for an OG transformer.

Simple reason being...SD card support. They both got great screens but transformer is bigger at 10.1 inch. The difference between quad and dual core doesn't really bother me at this point in time. Both got 1 gig of ram also.

You can't really go wrong. I love my transformer still after almost a year. I've no intention of replacing it anytime soon.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lowbo*:
+1
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blestsol:
I wouldn't. Unless it comes with the dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] alan77ss:
I've got both and personally i would stick with the nexus. i really want to love the TF101, the keyboard hybrid is such a great idea but it's been a really frustrating experience - very often laggy as hell (press the recent apps key and wait 5 secs for it to respond!), too many bugs for a device that is now over a year old (crashed launcher, screen locking up, i still occasionally have the device randomly rebooting). the speakers and microphone are also awful, really poor quality.

The nexus really is the best android tablet on the market at the moment in terms of performance. but if screen size/storage space is important then maybe it's worth swapping - but i would consider another android tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbaler:
well the OG transformer has HDMi out while the nexus 7 doesnt
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Leddiel:
I'm willing to transfer my tf101 with dock!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wintablet:
I can take that for sealed N7. PM me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mrhomiec:
man, i'll gladly go with a Nexus 7 over my Transformer+dock.

i would rather want the smaller form factor. taking around the Transformer+dock just seems too much like a laptop to me, and without the laptop power.

What exactly do you mean by "doesn't work"? Can you load up games but they freeze, do you get a black screen?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drizzin:
I can't load games. I can choose the game, and it starts to load, but then it will either go back to choose iso or will go to home screen. Same thing happens on my EVO 4g, I have been able to load the game on my phone using PSX4droid, but am not able to hit the menu button in game. It crashes the app if I do. Obviously not the right forum for that issue though ;). I have tried with no sound, and sound, have tried with different video options selected and not selected. I have done the save default config to ensure everything saves.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adreaver:
Ok, just wanted to triple-check before I flash a new kernel that I know what the steps are, since im on CM9a6 with the unsafe recovery.

Current stats:

Baseband - EL29

Kernel - 3.0.15-SPH-D710.FF18-CL663858

se.infra@SEP-113 #3

SMP PREEMPT Mon Jun 18 19:35:19 KST 2012

CM Ver - 9-20120628-EXPERIMENTAL-epic4gtouch-alpha6

AFAIK, my recovery is currently the UNSAFE cwm5 (its the one included with the ROM, i have not flashed a separate kernel/modem yet)

Steps as far as I know:

1. Download all files to external SD card on phone

2. Flash EL29 cwm5 directboot kernel in Mobile ODIN

3. Wipe cache/dalvik in cwm5 (FROM EL29 DIRECTBOOT)

4. flash kernel (chris41g RC10 built from FF18 source)

5. reflash CM9

6. reboot

Anything im missing that could result in a brick? I literally JUST finished setting up accounts/launcher/etc so I would like to avoid a data wipe if possible, and I should be able to since im not changing roms.

EDIT: Found the answer. I can't post links, but its the top link in the second post of the Kernel Repository Thread over in the dev section.

[General Questions and Answers] zobbyblob:
Hey XDA, I just bought a GS3 (and love it) however when I leave my phone plugged in overnight, it shows the battery at 100%, but when it is unplugged, it drops.

For example, I just charged my phone all night, it showed 100% charged, I unplugged it, and it went to 23%.

I have already ordered a qcell 4200mah battery for my gs3, but I still have the option to return the phone as it is brand new.

Do I wait to see if the phone does this with the new battery, or return the phone because something is broken? Any help is appreciated, thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] estallings15:
Return it for a replacement. It's not worth the risk.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mattlikesbikes:
I got my Infinity about two weeks ago. It's pretty cool. I already picked up the 201 keyboard and carry my purple tablet everywhere. I'm generally happy with it, but find ultimately I use it less than I would have thought. Maybe I just don't know how to use it.

I want a tablet so as I automate my house I can connect and control.

I fly a ton and want something that I can watch movies on the plane.

With my MiFi and hotel internet I like not checking email and searching the web without using my company laptop.

General and casual net surfing.

So the problem I have with my Infinity is half the stuff I want to do on the internet gets pushed out as the mobile version. Even when I try to override this, the lack of a normal operating system seems to make websites work funny. My wife has an iPad 2 and it seems like the apps are more functional and better thought out. And trying to read on it is tough, the big format is harder to hold and the screen is not as nice as my old e-ink reader.

So I was thinking a Nexus would be easier to carry around, and really is big enough for an airplane movie. They are going to sell more of them, so I am sure I can actually get a case that works. The smaller memory is a problem, but I have an ipod for music and would just delete movies later (wait, can I burn my own DVD's to the nexus?).

When the Surface comes out in two months the Windows RT version should be more internet friendly. I'll still have a keyboard option. the screen might not be as good, but the device itself would be more like a laptop experience.

So point out the flaws in my understanding.
[Asus Transformer TF700] almo40192:
one thing to note, tablets are not laptops.

I noticed this though. I had the Transformer Prime and no laptop before. I would use the prime for everything!!! Now i bought a laptop and i use the tablet half the time now. And the only thing i do on the computer is download music and use the web. Im actually on my computer now. And the docking station, i never use it anymore. Its sort of strange to find the purpose for the devices. Checking email and quick web browsing/facebook is really fast on the tablet. That and media, but for the laptop i think i just like the bigger keyboard...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mimicx10:
If you only intend to use your tablet as a media consumption device then I highly recommend a different product. I love my Infinity and previously my TF101 as it is my laptop replacement. But if not for the productivity side of things, I would have gotten a smaller Samsung or now the Nexus 7. I would avoid the Amazon Kindle Fire as it is just a poor attempt to restrict Android (pre-root of course).
[Asus Transformer TF700] dlokey22:
Have you tried other 3rd party browsers? I heard dolphinHD is really good on the infinity.

Yeah, the nexus is definitely easier to hold, especially with one hand like an ereader. The down side to the nexus is that there's not a whole lot of storage space for movies or other multimedia files. The 16gb version will only have enough space for you to store 2-3 hd movies.

As for quality apps, apple is still way ahead in this department. They have a lot more optimized tablet apps. Hopefully android can catch up in the future.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Jotokun:
I'd avoid the surface for now. Its rather bipolar at the moment, its clear that the desktop and metro environments were not made to play nice with each other. Metro also hasnt proven itself yet, it'll get some app support initially due to ties with Windows but in the long run its not clear at all that it'll do well. In fact, given the reputation of WP7, I'd be shocked if it did anything but completely flop.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MartyHulskemper:
There are no flaws in your understanding, you only have a different perception and set of expectations, and that's fine. I'll just give you my point of view.

1) You really shouldn't be using the stock browser. Get another one that properly supports setting the user agent and the web surfing should be fine. I only have desktop sites on my TF700 and it rocks. Just to mention it here:

2) STAY AWAY from Dolphin! I can't stress this enough -- it is a PRIVACY BLACK HOLE. Everything you do, and I mean everything is logged and sent to Dolphin's developer, and believe me, that is far more than they need to 'optimize your user experience' or 'debug Dolphin'.

3) I watch all kinds of video content (documentaries, military footage, movies (HD or lower resolution), etc.) and it works fantastically. I use Dice for the hardware-base decoding capability, but lots of people are endeared by BS Player as well.

4) I'm actually going to boycott Windows 8 for several tech and personal reasons, so I will refrain from commenting on your hopes for Windows RT (which is the crapped down version of crap anyway). But as I said, there is absolutely no need to render my opinion any worth -- I just wanted to mention that here. Sorry.

5) If you wanted a laptop experience, why not buy a laptop? It's not meant derogatory, but laptops do best what laptops need to do. Their niche is different enough from the tablet's (with or without a dock, charging or not) that each has their own merits and probably will not compete the other out of existence for some time to come. You'd miss out on two things: screen resolution and battery life, but since you actually consider the Nexus 7 a viable replacement (which, again, strictly specific to my usage scenario, it is not), a laptop would serve you fine.

Bottom line: I think I'd return the TF700 and get a laptop if I were you. But then I'm not. ;)

Wisdom, my friend. Good luck weighing your options.

Marty

Nothing personal, I must say, but PLEASE, for the love of all friendly kittens and other fluffy animals, STOP RECOMMENDING DOLPHIN. And stop using it yourself. <sarcasm >You might give me your bank account instead, as I will put it to good use for other people too. </sarcasm> Refer to #2 above and several XDA threads on the matter while you're at it.

With the right compression, I am watching FullHD movies (Blu-Ray sourced) at ~2 to 3 GB. I only watch one at a time, so I can transfer a new one when I finished an old one. With some elbow grease, this is a solvable inconvenience.

I've heard this argument before, but 1) there are no trial versions. When you buy a crappy app it is just matter of swallowing the pain and try another potentially crappy app (since there are lots of ****ty apps for iOS). I have no further needs that Android hasn't been fully fulfilling, so I can't share this judgment. (Disclaimer: I have only limited experience with iOS myself, but (unfortunately?) a high percentage of my geekier friends are total crApples and I hear things every now and then. That is, pretty regularly. ;) )

Personally, I've used Dolphin for some time and never had any issues with my "privacy".... That is usually blown way out of proportion. Do you really think that the Dolphin devs are stealing and *using* your info?? C'mon, give me a break - if that were true, people would be suing them left and right.

If you don't like Dolphin then don't use it, but let others decide for themselves!

You don't think Google tracks everything you do too?
[Asus Transformer TF700] dlokey22:
I was under the impression this has been resolved. Eh whatever... I'm not worried. Like what the other poster said, Google is probably a bigger data mining culprit than dolphin is.

That's fine if you haven't encoded your movies already. All my blurays have been encoded using high bit rates for my htpc. Most of my 720ps are 4-6gb. I'm not going to re encoded them all. Any way you look at it, storage is an issue if you plan to use nexus 7 as a multimedia device.

I wasn't trying to make an argument. It is just the truth. The ipad has a lot more optimized apps. Android has a ways to go to catch up. You can always do research before buying an app. That is what the Internet is for :p
