[Asus Transformer TF700] t-rust:
I just got my asus infinity 2 days ago from bestbuy. When I connected it to the internet, it downloaded and installed the .30 firmware right away. After the update, I find occasional stutters/lags when I try to swipe from screen1 to screen2, etc. I have tried to cold boot but it doesn't seem to help. When it flows nicely, it is amazing but when it stucks, you just want to return it. Fortunately, i don't have any problem streaming google music using the BT to my jawbone & I can stream movies from huluplus very smooth (unlike my prime). Do you guys experience these thing? Do you think I should exhange for the new one?

Thanks guys.
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
For my opinion, just comparing the complaint content on the 2 general forums of the 2 device dictates the level of quality of the tablets.
[Asus Transformer TF700] androidsetting.com:
I also have a note 10.1 that i won at work. Its nice, the pen thing is pretty cool but otherwise useless unless i want to draw or be an artsy pantsy dude. I mean using supernote on my infinity and writing with my fingers is as good if not better than the S pen app suite from samsung. The tablet is quite more responsive because lag plaigs the transformer but again, the TF700 has the ressources, just need to work on the software issue. The note is fatter, thicker and chunkier, it feels much cheaper also. The TF700 overall is the better tablet, it feel premium, has a beatiful screen resolution that in certain cases is better. I've compared both tablet side-by-side and played an MKV bluray rip and suprisingly the note has better, brighter colors, the blue is more blue, the greens are more green and in color saturation its considerably nicer. but unless you compare side by side, there is no way to know.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
If it is good hardware-wise, keep it. There are so many things you can do to improve it, both minor (tweaks) and major (flashing custom roms). We're just at the beginning of finding ways to make this tablet even more awesome.
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Isnt the note the same thickness as the infinity? Maybe the tapering bezel of the infinity make it feel that way. I also owned the infinity and the prime.. and quality is still not up to par my deciding factor of returning the infinity was the bluetooth connections with my 3g phone, lags in apps, and the crackling noise that developed in the speaker (I had a few light bleeds but it wasnt that bad). Other than the screen resolution of FHD, the note works as it should. At the moment, Id rather have a fully functional tablet than one having issues... Again the forum is a good indicator which one has a quality built which to me is premium.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Grant H:
Agreed!

7K posts for the Note 10.1.

Hmmmmmm...

Having owned both in the last week (just sold my Infinity today) I will say that while the Note 10.1's screen is lesser than the Infiniity, the Note still wins.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nefariouss:
The Infinity is 263 x 180.8 x 8.5 and weighs 598g. Note is 262 x 180 x 8.9 and weighs 597g.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
Ummm, not really. Did you ever see how many complaints there were about the Nexus 7 when it first came out? Now it's developers' favorite tablet, and lauded as the best android tab hands down. No, I think the number of complaints has a lot to do with how many people came over from the Prime and were possibly carrying a lot of expectations and also dissapointment with ASUS regarding their previous bad experiences. Let me say that this is not true of most Infinity owners in this forum...I'm just seeing a pattern of passionate opinion, and everyone is entitled to that. One thing I don't appreciate is people who don't have the Infinity (anymore or never) coming to this discussion and badgering Infinity owners about how sucky our tablet is and how great the GNote 10.1 is. I mean, come on!. I wouldn't go to the note forum and do that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Guess it is thicker but barely enough to feel the difference of .4mm. I did notice when I tried using my infinity case on my note It was shorter
[Asus Transformer TF700] tyshone:
I created a new account just to respond to this thread.

I am looking to purchase one of these devices and I am a little concerned about the durability and build quality of the TF700. For the record, I owned the original Transformer and loved it. But outside of a little creaking when pushing on the back cover, I had no other issues. I am not so much concerned about software issues as I know they can be corrected with firmware updates. What concerns me the most are the complaints about screen cracks and touch malfunctions. I don't want to face a situation where I have to convince ASUS to honor their warranty. Even with the concerns, I'm leaning in the direction of the ASUS. Having said that, for the guys that have both devices, is the screen resolution and overall clarity that much of a difference? And if so, in what application(s) is it most noticeable?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nefariouss:
The whole thread is the OP stating he'll answer any questions about the two. Then the second post is asking which is faster. Follow rest of thread with people giving their opinions. So why are only positive opinions of the Infinity allowed?

Is it a fair unbiased decision answering the question if only one positive side is given? How would he feel if that was the case and he went out and bought a tablet only hearing the positives. Then encountered known issues but he couldn't get that information from the censored thread.

And there's not a bunch of Note praising in this forum. Just this thread that is specifically about Infinity vs Note.

Some people like the Infinity and some like the Note. Each camp is passionate they made the right decision. When your talking about $500+ you don't want buyers remorse.

The only problem I see is some people use opinion as fact.
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Usually people buying tablets or replacing it with its higher end series should carry alot of expectations that it should work as it should or better or at least make it right the second time around. Im not saying that all the infinity tablets are faulty and it has gotten better than the prime... but not enough for me to keep the tablet. Ive had the infinity for over a month and gives me every right to share my experience about the both tablets (look at the thread's name), its great that your infinity is perfect but not everyone feels the same about it. Did I say anything about how "sucky" the infinity? I am merely saying at the moment the note overall is a better device in regards of quality control. Who know when JB comes or Asus decides to put more focus on the quality of their infinity tablets. And you can definitely come into the note forum and voice your opinion about how your infinity experience is better than your note experience as the note forum has a thread about the infinity and note discussion.. Kind of pointless if the thread's name is to discuss the infinity and the note 10.1, when only infinity owners are posting how great the device is and how perfect it is and shuns any one that favors the note even if they still or have owned both devices.;)

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

Yes there is a big difference especially on text. The infinity's screen resolution is way better making text clearer and crisp, with the notes is good too but would rather have the infinity's screen.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
Ok, I was just responding to why there are so many complaint posts in the TF700 forum as opposed to Note 10.1 forum. Of course there has been no censoring of any of these threads. Your opinions are valid and when you are offering assistance to anyone seeking those opinions, go for it.

Ultimately everyone needs to decide for themselves what will work for them and what won't. :fingers-crossed:

---------- Post added at 03:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:11 PM ----------

Your point is well taken, but I've got to ask why you take the time to hang around a forum where you no longer have an ownership stake, if not to run down the tablet you got rid of? I truly mean no disrespect by asking this, but frankly, you must have a lot of extra time on your hands.;)

Anyway, as always, "your mileage may vary..."
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Because i still have the dock and 40+ days to return my tablet if i ever see a reason to switchback to the infinity. So i still in a sense i stilk have an ownership stake while i still own the keyboard dock.
[Asus Transformer TF700] BarryH_GEG:
Aside from the Note having been on the market less time affecting the number of total posts about it, you're skipping a pretty material fact. Every Asus tablet forum is riddled with the same complaints. Even of the people that are happy, how many have proudly said "finally, after (insert number) exchanges I've got a good one?" The only thing missing between the Prime forum and this one is the Wi-Fi complaints due to the all-aluminum back and screens spontaneously cracking from stress. Everything else is exactly the same and people that have followed both devices know that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] HoushaSen:
At this point I have returned my Galaxy Note 10.1 (after 3 weeks) I don't have both as of now. But I did own both at one point though actual overlap was like mere 2-3 days.

Anyways, to answer your question. The screen resolution is definitely noticeable if you put side to side. Even with home screen background image can show the difference. Or if you used FHD screen long enough and go back to HD screen, which was the case for me with Galaxy Note 10.1 as I had infinity almost 4 week before the Note.

Do you really care the difference though? This part sort of answers your second question of "which application shows the difference the most?". I use my tablet mainly to read ebook which contains many images, also watch video (though not really 1080p quality), and browse web. The texts on FHD screen are very sharp. If you compare it to FHD screen, you noticed blurriness on HD screen when characters are small e.g. unzoomed browser page text, pdf document with two columns etc.

Now whether you care about such difference becomes simply subject matter. Technically, I can still read on HD screen even browser page without zooming though text margin appear slightly blurry. Or probably most people would simply zoom in.

I still ended up choosing infinity simply because my personal preference and usage of the tablet. I just appreciate the beauty of the screen, clarity of the text every seconds I use the tablet. Whereas on Galaxy Note, which was phenomenal device, I appreciated/was surprised how responsive browser speed was every time I load a page, and also its stability. However, simply the amount of time I get impressed were more with Infinity (as it is every seconds I stare screen) vs. Note (on specific applications such as browser page loading), and therefore, I ended up choosing Infinity.

But if have decided to go with Infinity, you have to make sure to get Infinity from a place you can exchange if unit is defective as it seems like the rate of defective unit is very high. I personally have never went through electronic replacement process until infinity. For which I had to go through it twice.

I have actually tried to make an Oc kernel a month back or so. As reference I looked at motley's source for the tf201. As he had a oc kernel. The actual code is a little different than ours but it was still good for reference. But the only thing now is that it was for the ics kernel and not the jb kernel. I don't know if it has changed too much to use as a reference.

When driving with my 1,5 year old daughter in the car I sometimes let her watch videos, but she keeps on clickin on the screen hense I need to start the video over again.

Is there some smart way to lock the screen and disable touch when watching videos?

Thanks in advance,

OK I'm not asking if the phone is worth $200 to YOU. I'm asking about me. I'm in high school and have a fair bit of money, and I don't really spend it on much since I got out of computer gaming. But I know there are always those people who will say "save every penny you can for your future". However, my Infuse is increasingly pissing me off. What do you all think?

Another question: When do you think AT&T will start pre-orders? If I do upgrade, I want it on release day :D

[Galaxy Note II General] iahk:
$200 is going to be the price you'll be paying for any cutting edge phone that you want to buy in the first few months of launch. So going by that, you really have no choice in the matter. Go buy the phone with no guilt. :)

[Galaxy Note II General] ChodTheWacko:
Only you can decide if it's worth it. If you don't need one handed use,it fits in your pockets, and spend most of your time looking at the screen, it doesn't get much better than the note.
[Galaxy Note II General] tjpallares:
So you're asking US if its worth it for YOU? Only you can tell if its worth it for you.

If you're infuse is always pissing you off, then sure get a new phone. If you don't have to pay rent or for a car or for anything, then sure why not get it? If you're not moving out anytime soon I personally don't see a problem with it.

However you have to make your own financial decisions.
[Galaxy Note II General] iahk:
It'll also be locked here in the US to the carrier/operator. The price of $200 (probably more than likely closer to $300) that we're referring to is subsidized/on-contract. By all means, unsubsidized here, it'll most likely be ~$800 as well.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bbecko:
Hi guys, it has been awhile since i rooted my neo, with a guide I believe I found here.

I'm currently on version 2.3.4 with root and would like to update to ICS or higher if possible.

Now I've tried to do an OTA update but it restarted my phone with the announcement that it couldn't upgrade to version 4.0.2.A.0.62 (luckily not bricked)

So now I have a few questions regarding this. I have the superuser app on my neo(MT15i) and i found 2 options which may or may not work. These are "temp unroot" and "ota survival". I haven't used these options, afraid of bricking my phone.

All in all, anyone know the correct way of updating my phone?

thank you for your time, reading this
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Ether update your phone with PC Companion or Sony update service, and root it after.

Or you can flash one of the ftf's with flashtool and root it after. These you can find in sticky thread in general section.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bbecko:
Thank you for your reply. I already tried via the PC companion and after an hour or so, it still didn't do anything.

As for the other solution, I will try this as soon as possible. If I understand it correctly, if I update my phone succesfully, I automatically lose root? And afterwards I should root it again?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Was there any error?

Yes. Clean install wipes your phone. So make backup.

Only in some cases when it's small update(ie. not changing android version) PCC or SEUS leave data partition intact. But in that case you can click repair option in PCC or flash it with SEUS(SUS) and your data will be wiped. Which is what I suggest as it's always good to have clean phone when you get different android version.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bbecko:
No error at all, it seemed to be stuck at preparing the phone for the update, furtheron there was no sign it was actually doing anything in the background.

And i made a backup of everything on my phone with the app backup master. Or do you suggest another/better application?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24983903&postcount=2

I found this post by you, I could use the same procedure to update my phone right?

small edit: both your dropbox link and 4shared link are down
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Use whichever app you want, if it backuped what you wanted then it's ok. I personally use MyPhoneExplorer as I only need sms,contacts and notes/tasks(from calendar). Don't know how MPE goes with apps, you can use titanium backup for apps.

That is old tutorial with links to old android 4.0.3( build .562), but it still works(4shared is not down, as I tested it now).

That's why I wrote, in above reply, to check sticky thread in general section. So no need to look around.

p.s. read a note in that (sticky) thread, make backup of your CDF customization number. OR simply update it with PCC(I guess you caught it on a bad day, usually it works ok) or SUS.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] bbecko:
Just updated it succesfully with PC Companion :D

Only left to root now.
