i had to dowgrade as the page says as it had already gingerbread, every step went smooth, then i booted and everything apparently fine, except when i turn on my wifi it autoshuts down after some seconds (the wifi not the phone).

tried 7.2 latest nightly and same thing.

Be sure you're doing a complete wipe before flashing a ROM. Check out 4EXT recovery, as it has an option for wiping all partitions.
[myTouch 4G General] arana1:
Thanyou, i think I have done wipe, as instructed on link, I followed exactly, maybe is not the rom as I have tried at least 3 cm versions, and 2 non cyanm, I returned to stock (downgrade version, 2.2) and still no luck, but I havnt tried the one it had, stock, 2.3, I have reflashed many times, this is a used phone, that I am unlocking for a friend, and while I was on it he asked for a rom, he got this cheap, and was not using it because of carrier lock, but I actually never checked if wifi was working before flashing it, so probably its just broken and that is why he got it so cheap lol (like 40 bucks) wil trry ota 2.3 and the others you guys suggested, just to exhaust possibilities,, but not with much hope, ty both for taking the time to answer
[myTouch 4G General] arana1:
in my case I can't go to advanced, as it is only available when wifi is on, and I'm not fast enough to setup a network before out turns off, I cheeked someone with same problem on tmobile forums, no root, no flash,.regular ota, support said that if just factoiry reset with no sd, and before installing anything then its phone problem and needs to be replaced,

Any idea how to fix this piece of wifi hardware, are there available spare wifi chips or something? (i obviously can't return to tmobile a is used , phone from a foreign country :$
[myTouch 4G General] matkam:
Weird thing is that wifi tethering works fine. Also I started noticing this problem after switching back to Gingerbread from ICS. I've reflashed several times with the other luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiplashh:
Well, there is probably known but I searched and could not find an answer. I rooted and s-off my evo 4g, and went to cm7, like I had on my evo shift, mainly because the front camera works on this rom, because ics doesn't have a working one, so I thought that since the front camera worked, it would work on video chat apps. I went to test it, and it only works on the oovoo app, not Skype or Tango. Some people I would enjoy talking to that are many states away only use tango or Skype, is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance. If all else fails will a stock rom or stock sense 3.0 fix it?

Note: on oovoo I can see them and they can see me, on Skype and tango, it will stay on a black screen, and tango tells the other person I an "switching cameras " when I go to the front one but just says that and stays there.

[Galaxy S III General] ragarwal74:
The Samsung Galaxy S III (SG3) from T-Mobile (and other carriers) does not work well with Google Voice.

When making outbound calls using Google Voice, the SG3 does not capture the number of the recipient who you are calling. Instead, the SG3 device captures the "google voice relay/bridge number." This is really annoying. This is a major hassle as it is VERY important for me to look at my call logs to know who I have dialed in the past. SG3 behaves in a non-intuitive way. Adnroid phones do not behave this way.

I have had to return my phone, while I still could, because this problem is NOT GOING TO GO AWAY.

I have posted questions everywhere on the Web. I have called Samsung tech support and Google Android tech support.

The trouble seems to originate from the fact that Samsung created their own custom phone dialer, rather than customizing (or extending) the REAL android OS dialer. Samsung does NOT want you to use Google Voice. Samsung wants to do their own analysis on who you are calling so they can track you (this is dictated by their phone carriers T-Mobile / ATT / VZW, etc.

Samsung tech support will tell you that Google Voice is a 3rd party app and 3rd party apps are not support on the phone. Well BULL CRAP.

Samsung purposely broke the phone dial-er and made overall consumer experience worse. Samsung SHAME ON YOU! If I wanted my hardware to be under control of the manufacturer, even though I have paid for it, I would buy the crap iPhone, why would I buy a crap Samsung.

Bye bye Samsung, hello Google NEXUS.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tobnddl:
My power and volume buttons feel pretty rickety, but given the product return horror stories documented here, I did not want to play roulette for what I would consider a minor concern. Outside of buying a dock, which I don't really want, I could not find a reliable "one size fits all" app solution to provide similar functionality, but with the combined efforts of these three free apps, I have captured the full functionality of the hard buttons, with little or no battery cost. If you have a better app selection, please suggest it below. I have no ties to the developers of the apps listed below, and none of these apps require root or an unlocked bootloader.

Turn off the Lights - I wanted to be able to shut off the screen quickly, and without a fuss. Most of the automatic solutions rely on the light sensor, but I could not find one with that worked well in low light. Since I use my tablet to read in bed, I had to forego the use of the light sensor, and rely simply on a soft button. It works, 'nuff said.

Volume Control Widget - This is a basic app that allows you to create volume slider widgets to control notification, alarm, and media volumes. I really only need control over media volume on a regular basis, so a basic slider widget fit the bill nicely.

Awesome On Off - Of all the solutions, I would consider this the weak link in this list. I like the app, but it relies on the gyro to give the order to turn the screen on. As you can imagine, carrying the tablet can lead to false "ons". For this reason, I set the set the "turn on angle" to require a pretty good movement from horizontal to turn on, and I did not have the app bypass the lock screen, which I have set to turn off very quickly if no unlock slide is made. In this way, the batter drain from false "ons" is somewhat mitigated.

Wave Control https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.MarksThinkTank.WaveControl

Pretty neat app. alot more configurable if u buy for a dollar. But for the basic controls its free. Thought u might want to explore this option on the on/off switching. cheers

I exchanged my Prime for the TF700 in BB last month , I started feeling my power switch extremely rickety . Took it to BB but denied Exchange or return saying that nothing is wrong , Power switch is exactly like that even in the brand new TF700. Eventhough i was within my 60 days return window ( Silver Pre member) they denied me the return .

Coming back to the topic , I am using Screen Off to switch off the screen and Awesome On off to switch back on . Only problem is Awesome On/Off keep preventing the tablet from going into deep sleep. Need to play around with settings ...
[Asus Transformer TF700] tobnddl:
First off, screw Best Buy, and second, it is interesting that a rickety volume switch is not cause for return. That's a real bummer for the money that we all have paid. Generally speaking, I am very happy with the hardware, but when I hit buttons/volume on my wife's ipad 3, they have a more secure feel, like they will still work after 10,000 presses. I don't get that same fuzzy feeling with our tablet, but I guess that's life. How are you monitoring your CPU use...CPU Spy or something else?
[Asus Transformer TF700] nooktablet:
for volume control when you're using the tablet i recommend this app, it works awesomely and has options to configure.

[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
If they wouldn't allow you to return it for the power button, I would have just said 'Ok, then I'm just not happy with the product, and want to return it'. Then, just buy another one... Last time I checked, you really don't need a "reason" to return something - you can return it simply because you don't like it, for example...

I found it pretty strange when returning a tablet to Best Buy once for a hardware defect - they seem to go out of their way to actually make sure the device turns on before accepting the return - why do they do that?? What would they do if it wouldn't turn on?? If it's defective, it's defective - who cares if it actually turns on or not? If it *doesn't* turn on, then that's even more of a reason to return it! :) Am I missing something here?!?
[Asus Transformer TF700] nramprabhu:
Yes I am using CPU spy to monitor . In BB their argument was , even if i exchange for a new TF700 the volume buttons are going to be same .. strange . I did not want to argue too much sine the manager lady was too rude . I just took my tablet and came out.

---------- Post added at 07:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 AM ----------

Yes i tried also, I told then i am returning this and pick a Samsung Note 10.1 , The manager lady told she won't allow me to exchange since this is my second return in 2 months , i don't know , if there is a rule like that. she was pretty rude , i was tired of explaining to Customer service / Geek Squad / manager , Just took my Infinity and walked out .

They always switch on and check , don't know why.
[Asus Transformer TF700] tobnddl:
Regarding the Wave Control app suggested above, I could not get this to work. Am I mistaken, or is there no proximity sensor in the Infinity? If mine does not respond as it should, I want to return it. If not, how does this app detect a wave?
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
That's BS - I would definitely go to a different Best Buy from now on! If still in your return period, just go to a different location - that lady was feeding you BS... You should have no problem returning it as long as you are within the return period and have a receipt.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nramprabhu:
Yes , thought about it. Then thought of giving one more chance to Infinity , except the Power swich little loose , my infinity is perfect. JB update should be around the corner , so just waiting for JB update .
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Yeah, Definately dont settle for mediocre for a brand new tablet... itll haunt you for as long as you own your tablet.. Apparently, you are dissatisfied with the product and they have no excuse to refuse the return as long as you are in your window of return. I would have called the manager and complained they are refusing for something that is written on their site as an acceptable excuse of return. When I had my infinity the volume rocker was wierd too, the down button would click once and the up had no clicking but was hard to control the amount of volume and when I pushed it the volume would go all the was to max. I would go to your premier site and print out the 60 day return policy, march back to that bestbuy and show it to their face the policy if they deny you right to return.
[Asus Transformer TF700] nramprabhu:
Ya, I still have 3 weeks for my 60 days return window.... if no JB till the end , I will retun and get a brand new Infinity or Samsung Note 10.1 . Not decided yet... loll
[Asus Transformer TF700] htcvidi:
There is no proximity sensor in the Tf700 .
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
You might also find Power Switch interesting for the path you're following with your Infinity.

BTW, I've added a link to this thread to the best apps sticky thread (running out of space there, so won't list the apps themselves).
[Asus Transformer TF700] MarksThinkTank:
If you were able to install Wave Control then your device is telling the Play Store you do have a proximity sensor otherwise it wouldn't show up since it's a hardware requirement. (Or your'e on a custom ROM that doesn't report its features properly)

Someone on a different Transformer model, forget which one there are so many now, had the app work for a while but then it stop working. Turns out there is a sensor (on that model and probably this one too) but had been disabled by Asus in a software update.

Seems like they included it but then didn't want to use it and so disabled it. Maybe it was for a smart cover feature but went with the magnetic sensor instead.
[Asus Transformer TF700] spinaldex:
The problem with any of those solutions is that a widget can't be used to change the volume in game or movie. I need the ability to do that and the only way would be to pull it to the system tray like the stock brightness control is.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Take a look at a app I recently found called "1Tap Quick Bar" - you can put all sort of stuff (including sound control) directly in your system bar - it is a really nice and useful app.

Probably to check if the device has been rooted.
[Asus Transformer TF700] no.human.being:
I wonder why there are still hardware buttons on the phones. I could imagine that an actual hardware button is required to get the CPU out of its "extremely-low-power" mode (it's never actually "off", after all it has to poll the "power" button and this is done in software as well, but it has an "extremely-low-power" mode where almost nothing is enabled) where capacitive sensors are not enabled, but things like "volume up/down" and "screen on/off/shutdown" (why should the button that turns the screen on and off and shuts the device down be the same that turns the device on?) could all be implemented with capacitive sensors, right?

This way you'd only have to press an actual button once to power up the device and the rest could be done by capacitive sensors. Capacitive sensors don't wear out.

I wonder how long it will take the phone manufacturers to realize this and manufacture either a "buttonless" device (if they can get capacitive sensors working in low-power-mode) or one with only a single "hardware" button that only serves to turn the device on and is thus almost never pressed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jvnat:
Does this have the ability to "wake" the tablet up from sleep mode? Not based on timer, but through tilt or movement?
[Asus Transformer TF700] mtmerrick:
These are all rendered fairly useless by GMD Gesture Control. Only thing that app can't do is actually turn on the device, but, well, there are other ways out do that. Its especially useful for bringing up the system volume controls over the top of any screen, replacing the navigation buttons, and yes, even turning off the screen. The launchpad function is also very fun.

before yesterday, my TF300 drain about 3 - 5% overnight,

yesterday i installed awesome on off, it worked perfectly, i liked it,

at 12pm, battery was 80%, then i went to sleep, today at 4 pm i went home, and the battery was 34%, wtf? i lost 46% overnight because of this app.

i went to settings->battery, it said "awesome on off" uses 2%, i wondered why only 2% made the battery drained so much, but when i went to detail, it said "keep awake - 16 hours" lol

uninstalled

i really like this app, i really want to use it, but this kind of battery drain is unacceptable. is it just me have this problem or everyone?

does anyone know any other app that help me unlock the screen without pressing the power button? (of course it should use a little battery)
