Download issue..

Strange.. Out of 5 test downloads, 1 was corrupt... Maybe I should use XDA's upload source rather than my website or maybe my website can't handle the downloads. :laugh: I'll work on an alternative source on my roms. Thanks and I hope you get a working download in the meanwhile. Sorry if any inconvenience too.

[Asus Transformer TF700] Syn010:
My friend has a USB internet stick which gives her internet access in remote areas.

We already have 40 pin usb to male usb with the tf700t.

Could I attach that male usb end to a female usb connection then to a male internet usb stick?

cheers.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
I think that the USB stick requires software that might be not designed to run on the Android OS. Even if you can get the tab and the stick communicating, there's really very little likelihood they will work together. Many USB sticks have their own software in addition to the drivers needed for actually talking with the OS. Until it says "For Android" on the USB Stick's box, I think it's a no-go.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Syn010:
Thanks Alienedd.
[Asus Transformer TF700] phoenixbennu:
Check out the a500 forums. I dont remember specifics, but there are usb data sticks there that will work. This was one of the main tablets that had a build in USB host port.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Good call! Maybe try this thread?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Bohemian:
While this does not address the use of a internet connection USB thumb drive it will address the topic of "USB on tablet possible without keyboard dock."

There is a Asus addon that plugs into the 40 pin connector to use it as a USB port. Amazon link - ASUS USB Kit for Eee Pad Transformer TF101, TF101G, TF201 & TF300 Tablets

In the reviews some say it is fully usable on the TF700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] MattZTexasu:
I own one of these and use it with a hub to plug in a full size desktop keyboard and mouse. Also, they're cheaper at Microcenter.
[Asus Transformer TF700] wolfman87:
Link?

Also, if you can get a cheap Charging cable from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007GJR7GS/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00) anda cheap USB cable, can't you just make your own by splicing/soldering the wires and using some shrink tube?

It would be flexible and you can make it as long as you need it to be. I feel like having their adapter + a USB stick would stick out pretty badly from the bottom of the tablet
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ozark_8125:
I was wondering the same thing - would be a lot less clunky if you could just attach a female to female usb adapter at the end of the charging cable to avoid having a big brick sitting on the side of the tablet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Me too

Not for internet access just for a thumb drive or card reader.

I had the A700 that would see most stuff;

Wired or wireless mice

Keyboards

32 gig data stick

SDHC card reader

etc

I did try a TPLink wireless data stick in the ACER, yet it was not recognized by Andwoid ICS.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Asus does sell a "converter" to convert the docking port to a USB port - sounds like that would do the trick for reading thumb drives, etc...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
I'd like to buy the 40 pin thing for cheap, pop it open and see if there is a circuit interface inside.

I think it's big because of the female USB A plug built into it.

Wonder why Asus just doesn't offer the plug with a wired dongle?
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Hooray. Until today I thought everything was ok with my new tablet, but then suddently I used it a little with brightness maxed out and I noticed that I have a stuck pixel. Initially it was white, then, after running some random "stuck pixel fixer" app (the ones flashing your screen with different colours) it turned to green. So now I have a nice green pixel showing off on every blackish page. When the screen is very dim I can't really see it (that's why I didn't notice it at first), but when brightness is maxed out it's very noticeable.

I already had similar issues on my laptop, with a couple of white pixels appearing after a while I had it (not presumably out of the box, like with this one), and those luckily went away after a few days. I heard that in these cases there's not much to do about it, and I also guess that most of the tricks used with with regular LCD panels (pressing it, shooting it with pressured air, tapping it and all the funny stuff) don't apply here, since the panel is under a slab of glass. Some say that stuck pixels will eventually start working back again after some time, but I really don't know what to think.

Sending the device for repair it's not an option because 1) It's not worth it IMHO 2) I guess they won't replace a screen with a SINGLE defective pixel 3) I got it off ebay so things may get more complicated and I don't wanna stay without my tablet for the rest of my vacation.

Have your ever had similar issues on your devices? Please share yours, that will eventually make me feel a little better :rolleyes:

Also, if you have some tricks to get rid of this stupid pixel feel free to share as well.

Damn this is driving me crazy, I'd try to ignore it but I literally can't! I keep turning on the device just in order to look at it and cringe, I think I'm going insane.

Btw, I attached a super zoomed, super blurry macro of the pixel, it's shot with my Lumia at a very close distance, sorry about the horrible quality. It should give you the idea tho...
[Transformer TF300T General] QQboss:
Well, I had a dead pixel back in the day when I had PSP. It was almost in the middle of the screen and I can tell you, it was driving me insane :mad:.... but give it a week or two and you will get used to it :)

Now on my TF300, I have some tiny piece of dust under the screen and it kinda looks like dead pixel. Havent figured out a way to get rid of it but I dont care much about it.

I know its not much help, but theres not much you can do about it.
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
He he, thanks anyway man, at least you gave it a try...

Sorry to hear about your issue as well, I had a similar issue with my HTC Desire and I couldn't do much about it...maybe you can try shooting some pressured air from the sides of the screen or the USB socket, you may be able to push it aside :)
[Transformer TF300T General] al89nut:
Try massaging the pixel? Used to work for laptop screens, not sure about tablets
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
I don't think it's gonna work here, tablets have glass on top so you can't really apply proper pressure. You may even crack the screen if you try too hard :(
[Transformer TF300T General] UndisputedGuy:
How can i tell whether i have a dead pixel or just dust in my screen? It's a small dot
[Transformer TF300T General] QQboss:
Lets say you play a movie right. Now pause and look at the spot from different angles and from above. I can totally tell by this that this dust or what is a bit above the screens.
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Does it look bright on a dark screen, like eg the app drawer? Also, a dead pixel will always be black, even on a white screen, what I have is a stuck pixel, and by stuck I mean it's stuck on a single colour regardless what the screen is showing...a dead pixel can't be fixed in any way, while a stuck one may eventually be fixed using some tricks or simply fix itself with time. If the dot isn't bright nor black then it's probably a simple speck of dust underneath the screen.
[Transformer TF300T General] UndisputedGuy:
Yeah, it's always black and does look like a "pixel"
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Then it's dead, I'm afraid...you may wanna try out this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htc.chris.blackspotdetect

Maybe if you're very lucky it might wake it up.
[Transformer TF300T General] UndisputedGuy:
Yeah, i've tried that too. Didn't know if it was safe to leave it on for too long so i left it on for about half an hour
[Transformer TF300T General] coma999:
@vnvman:

On my brand new tf300t, I've got the same problem that you are facing. A bright, glowing pixel in the middle of the screen. I also tried to wash the pixel out with one of those stuck pixel apps, but that didn't help. I will send the tablet back to Amazon now...
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Good. Please let me know if you're able to get it replaced or fixed, so I may consider sending mine too. That would be a pain tho :(
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
I heard directly from Asus today. They told me that for tablets and phones a single defective pixel is enough to be eligible for warranty purpose. However they told me to contact the vendor first, because the item is still under their responsibility (I bought it a week ago). The vendor told me to send them an email with a copy of the warranty certificate/product code and report of the issue, possibly with a picture. If Asus validates the instance they'll send me a courier. However I guess I'll have to wait for a while before I hear from them, because next week everything is frozen due to holidays here in Italy. Oh well, no big deal. I'll just go on and use my "flawed" device while I wait :rolleyes:

Edit: hmm, now that I think about it...my boot loader is unlocked right now. I know that this is supposed to void my warranty, but I've already heard of people succeeding in their claim when the fault of the product was obviously hardware. This should be the case as well...what should I do about it? The Asus guy checked my serial and didn't mention anything about my bootloader apparently, so I could be fine...
[Transformer TF300T General] coma999:
I really hope that the exchange device will be error-free. I've read from people who had to send in their devices multiple times, before finally getting one without faults... This would drive me mad :mad:

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

I would try and send it in anyway. The 'worst' case would be they send it back without repair/replacement, but I think there's a good chance that will not happen, because the error is hardware-related as you said.
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Yeah, fingers crossed...
[Transformer TF300T General] coma999:
My replacement tablet already arrived today, amazon sent me the new one before even receiving the old.

So far, everything seems to be working allright now.. I'll test it extensively the next days :D

Good luck with yours!
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
Thanks man, good for you! Amazon generally does this kind of stuff, never had an issue with them. Let's hope my vendor is just as good :)
[Transformer TF300T General] basketor:
hello,

I have a stuck pixel on my padfone 2 tabstation

I still can return it within 10 days, no questions asked.

According to your experience with asus do you think i should just return it to the shop without mentionning the pixel, or try to have a replacement with a warranty (that may not apply)
[Transformer TF300T General] bucket81:
My wife got me a TF300T off Craigslist for Christmas with a similar problem, I have a group of bright pixels, it is with a white background. I'm going to try and contact the seller and see if I can get info on where he bought it and see what Asus will do.

I have noticed a lack of contrast on the screen, but I'm comparing it to a DROID CHARGE witch has way to much saturation on its screen.
[Transformer TF300T General] coma999:
I would return it to the shop if you still can, because then an easy exchange is guaranteed, which asus could deny..
[Transformer TF300T General] basketor:
Yes I can return it, I have legally 7 days to retract for online purchases, and the shop even gives 10 days.

I also contacted Asus to see what they are up to, and they told me that for just one pixel Asus warranty won't work.

However they told me to just send it back to the shop if I still can, and to give them the ticket number i got from Asus call center in case they say to me to call Asus.

I am just afraid it will cost me a lot to send it back.
[Transformer TF300T General] bucket81:
Well after waiting 2 hours to chat with some one at Asus, my second hand tablet is under warranty. I So i have to send it off.
[Transformer TF300T General] vnvman:
In case anyone is interested, I managed to get mine replaced, not by Asus (worthless clowns) but by the vendor himself. Apparently Asus wanted to make me pay a whopping 233€ bill, due to a "pressure" damage, not covered by their warranty. However the guy at the online shop was cool enough to send me a new unit while settling the thing himself with Asus. The new unit came flawless in terms of pixels, but still showed some minor discoloration at the bottom left corner of the screen. I came to the conclusion that this device has a very flawed and poor build. Looking at other units at various shops I couldn't find a 100% flawless one, they either have screwed pixels or ununiform backlighting issue, light leaks and whatnot, and when you hold one from a corner the glass pushes on the LCD panel deforming the backlight reproduction of the area. A very poorly built device from Asus, but they won't rip me off twice, they won't have my money in the future, for what that matters.

I just wanted to ask which MIUI Rom (v4, mintberry etc.) is actually the best ?

In battery life, stability, options and performance ?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] codertimt:
***Just want to clarify this is Beans 6 discussed in this initial post***

Hey guys. Been a member for awhile now, but haven't posted much so can't post in Dev section. I've seen quite a bit of discussion in the Beans thread about clock speed and hot phones, so I thought I would create a quick thread to share my experience and observations.

Unfortunately at this time I'm not 100% sure about my initial observations since I didn't know what I was looking for at the time. But the basics are that Beans uses Imoseyon's Lean Kernel and it comes in clocked at 1900Mhz. The tricky bit was that at first on Beans, I was experiencing the behavior that my settings in SetCPU were not being respected. With clock set at 1512 Max it was still spending time at 1900.

So first thing I did was reflash the Kernel from Imoseyon's thread. Realized it was a test/beta kernel at that point, so was expecting it to not be completely perfect. Not exactly sure which version is in Beans 6, but once I reflashed 12.2, my setcpu setting seem to be respected. Until I plugged it in to charge. Then it once again jumped up to 1900. So I made a profile in setcpu for when on the charger and locked it down to a lower level and it's has stayed at the levels specified in setcpu since then.

Now I'm just using more battery that I want to be, but still have to track down whether is a kernel thing, an app thing, or a phone thing...guess I should have baselined the new phone before flashing...:p

Anyway, just updated to Beta v0.1 and will report back on my battery findings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
I had amazing battery life with beans. The thing you have to do for sure is lower the CPU. 1.9 is way to much and the phone runs extremely hot. I just started synergy 1.6 and battery script today. I'm going to compare my battery life tomorrow. I recall on beams r6 it took 3 hours of screen off time for me to even lose 1% battery!

The only thing I don't like about beans is the scrolling wallpaper..wish he'd give us a flash to remove it :(. Also sucks not being able to charge your phone while its off with the custom kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] codertimt:
While I'm hoping for better battery life, I'm not expecting anything like that 3 hrs of screen at 1% battery would equate to 100 hrs of battery lift with the screen on. No, I'm just wanting to get less that 1% an hour drain at idle. It bugs me when the phone drops so much at night. I never did a good test on Beans 6, but there were a couple of night where in a 7-8 hour period it dropped double digit percentages....up to 15%. But I also found later I was battling an occasional wakelock issue. So I wanted to wipe and flash and try again...

So, when Beans 7 dropped, I did just that. Loaded it up last night and forced myself not to restore apps until I got some baseline information.

The initial clocks in the kernel seem good... As an aside, I almost want to install Beans 6 again and see if the overclock happens initially or if it had something to do with restoring SetCPU with data from my previous phone... This time I restored App Only and clocks look good. Even when charging, no extra profile needed like with kernel Test 12.2.

Idle battery life with just a couple extra apps installed was acceptable. Lost 6-7% over 8.5 hours. I was thinking stock was better, but now that I think back on it, the only night I was pure stock I didn't get to bed until 3am. So it lost, I think, 4% in about 5 hours...So given my fuzzy memory on the numbers, probably about the same at idle, maybe a little bit better with Imoseyon's Beta 0.1 Kernel...

So I've restored apps now and will fuss over battery life and other stuff for a few days more and then settle down and just use the thing.

Final note. Beans 7 looks awesome. The 15 toggle and notification looks nicely polished. Gone is the little nagging issue of having trouble grabbing the notification bar. So thumbs up all the way around so far...:good::good:

any help would be appreciated, this rebooting bull**** is pissing me off.

I guess I will ask the standard questions before someone else asks them.

1. What recovery are you using?

2. Is your SD card partitioned?

3. What type of SD card are you using?

4. What is going on exactly when it reboots? What are you doing on the phone when it happens?

Your answer to the 1st 2 should be Smelkus and Yes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smidgers:
I used an old version of nitrous and loved it. Finally came time to replace it and uploaded to the newest version. Had the same issue.

I bounced around to a few roms (including Tommy - which is great) but missed nitrous. So, I tried again.

The Rom is overclocked by default if I remember correctly. And I believe that lowering that to normal speed is what resolved my frequent reboots.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] csensitive:
I tried CM7, 9 and 10 on my SK17I / mango and realized, what I really wanted was Stock ICS from google, and not stock ICS from sony with all their homegrown bloat in it.

So.. how do you remove/replace all the crap they put in there.. I already tried putting the vanilla apk's in the system/app, chmod and wipe dalvik, but they just doesnt show up.

How do I remove the bloat and get real ICS in there?

Is it neccesary to rebuild the source before flashing or is it possible after?

Thank you.
