[Asus Transformer TF700] TheAnarchist1:
Guys, there are like a thousand threads on these same issues already here, each with perfect solutions for dealing with the situation should it arise. Must we have yet another negative TF700 thread? My 700 is perfect, and so are the majority of people's as well. Continuing to populate the forums with these types of threads though does nothing but scare away potential developers from wanting to shell out the cash to pick up one of these tabs and develop awesome roms for us!

I do not mean to sound rude, nor am I flaming, but please, mods lock this thread before it spirals into something worse. :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] surfboard3r:
I agree with theanarchist that this is the same thread that we've all seen. But I also don't think most peoples tabs Are perfect. Some (like me) are still trying to find a perfect one And some have just accepted what they have and have given up. Others (like you) managed to get a perfect one.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xRevilatioNx:
Mine is perfect as well. My mother, my uncle, my best friend Craig, and my in laws have a perfect unit too. So when I see threads like this, it makes me wonder if people have an agenda.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Unibrow:
Mine's not perfect, clicking near the hdmi port and you can click it from a good portion up towards the middle of the screen. I personally gave up on Asus, though hearing that there are people that have indeed perfect ones makes me wish I had exchanged it. I was hesitant because I had already returned a tf300 (screen issue) and then later the Prime that I had replaced the tf300 with. I had only returned the Prime to get the tf700, as I was pretty frustrated I couldn't get the gps to work EVEN with the dongle Asus sent me. I didn't have any wifi issues really nor any screen clicking issues with the Prime and though I like the infinity the screen clicking annoys me. Wondering if I should rma it directly to them, just don't want to get a different tab back or been in a worse situation as a result.
[Asus Transformer TF700] esoxx:
There was an earlier thread that theorized that the build issues were being addressed in the more recently built devices. I posted to show that even with the more recent 80 serial number devices, the same issues are present on at least a percentage of tf700s.
[Asus Transformer TF700] flyhighx:
I certainly have no agenda. I'm on my second Infinity, which will unfortunately also be going back. The first one had some extreme screen separation on the right hand side. It was an C06 serial number. The one I'm on now, my second is a C80 serial number. The screen is good, with just a slight clicking in one spot on the right hand side. I'd live with it. However the light leaking out onto the screen along the bottom and right side from the LEDs is very very noticible.

I won't give up. I really love everything about the TF700 except for the build quality issues that I have experienced. I think the OP has a valid point in saying that the issues are not fixed yet. When my second unit came, I was psyched to see the serial number on the box said C80. I was very disappointed that it too has issues.
[Asus Transformer TF700] killerdan56:
I think...

I think the screen seperation can be because of the humidity. Where do u live?
[Asus Transformer TF700] esoxx:
I don't think it's humidity. I live on the west coast of the US. Pretty dry here. I noticed a curve in the glass along the top of the screen as soon as I took it out of the box and removed the skin/wrapper. It's noticeably bowed out in the middle of that edge.
[Asus Transformer TF700] effezie:
I just wanted to chime in to say that this is my 2nd C8. The 1st had a June build date and it came with the .22 firmware. I exchanged that one for this 2nd C8 which came with the .26 firmware and a 20120720 build date.

The 1st infinity had power and volume button issues and sharper than normal edges all around. I can't find anything wrong with the build on this second C8 other than the haptic feedback is set really low. (Does vibrate when power on)

I'm rooted and have the dmclient froze in titanium backup while I read up on NV flash. (Guarding against a forced OTA update) I made the mistake of applying the .30 OTA to soon last time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] esoxx:
Glad to hear that. Hopefully, 3rd time will be the charm. I really do LOVE this tablet, I just want one that's solidly built and works.
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
Agreed. I don't see how humidity is going to affect Corning's Gorilla Glass 2. Seriously don't see this being a factor at all.

I suppose I am one of the luck ones as well, no discernable bleeding edge light and completely flat screen. Of course, I bought the 64GB model from BB online, and it already have .26 on it when it arrived.
[Asus Transformer TF700] micaman:
I too just returned my c8 version today that suffered from light bleed, mushy/sticky power and volume buttons, separating screen which also had sharp 90 edges. The one I just picked up is a night and difference from the first one. This one is a c9 version and other than a little light bleed the construction is solid. It doesn't even appear to be the same tablet....its like the first one was a cheap knock off. Another thing I am noticing with this new one is that the speed of touch feedback is so much faster than the C8.

I did decide to purchase the extended warranty this time around...my experience with the prime has left me jaded and there is no way I'm going to be left holding a dud.

With that said, I suggest if possible to keep on returning them until you find a good one...they do exist!

If Asus can't be persistent with their perfection...Be persistent with the returns!

F me! Just noticed this one is creaking like an old rocking chair, its on the left side by the hdmi port.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Artimis:
Today, I swapped out my first C7 after owning it for a week and received a C8 as a replacement. It amazes me the differences between the two.

For my particular devices, the differences were:

C7 pros: The construction was very solid. I kept reading horror stories about screen lift, creaking, etc. and mine felt solid like a tank. No light bleed issues either.

C7 cons: It suffered from severe I/O issues. Trying to download something from the market would grind things to a halt until the download and install finished. The Browser lagged a bit as well........as did moving around the launcher or clearing items from the recents menu . I returned it because there was a spec of dust under the screen which just really bothered me.

C8 pros: It feels like they put better quality internals in this one! There have been none of the i/o issues, lag, or stutters. Everything is very responsive and snappy. From a software usability standpoint, this feels like a completely new device.

C8 cons: The physical build quality is definitely not as high as the first. There are spots around the edges of the glass that feel "squishy". There is also a bit more lightbeed but i would not call it bad by any means.

For now, I am going to keep the C8 because the performance difference alone is worth it. The minor physical build quality issues aren't bothering me enough yet to risk giving up the performance.

One trend I seem to have noticed after reading all these reviews is that the build date does not seem to have much correlation with physical build quality. However, it does seem that more recent models may be using higher quality internal components contributing to noticeable performance gain.

These are just my observations.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verruckterGeck:
Munchy Cool painted my GNex Blue! Here are some pics.....

What'd ya'll think?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] evodon84:
Looks pretty good actually, nice job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josip-k:
Awesome!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] munchy_cool:
looks awesome ....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mute68:
Nice
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prerav31:
very nice i would love to do this to my gnex
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] levi-17:
How can I do this to my nexus, it looks epic :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CMNein:
Looks like a job well done, the colour is good. I'm not a big fan of flake on smaller items though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrdevil_25:
wow that looks pretty awesome!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shreddintyres:
Looks very very nice, just not too sure im a fan of the shimmer paint, i personally would have gone with a flat blue and a clear coat but nice job none the less. did you go as far as to paint the inside of the housing or just the outside?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verruckterGeck:
The edges are painted inside too. I had a case that was flat blue and glossy, but I like the shimmer better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verruckterGeck:
munchy_cool helped me with mine. He also has a DIY in his post about doing this yourself. Check it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hollow.Droid:
Not usually a fan of these DIY jobs but that looks pretty damn slick :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] z7nz:
Very nice man. Is it just the pics or there are glitters in the paint?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rygran87:
The paint has metallic flakes. I like it! If I didn't require an Otter Box, I'd do this too but paint the buttons black.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verruckterGeck:
The paint is metallic specks. It actually looks pretty sweet in reality. Matches the color on my car :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] verruckterGeck:
Actually, I swapped out the buttons and put the stock ones back. Will post pics later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
I would have chosen it to be neon blue but that's me (being pickky :P) but that looks nice congrats !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamfart:
Is there a tutorial out there for this? I want to do white with red buttons or black buttons idk but I want white.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATMOSF3AR:
Pretty Good
[Sony Tablet S] zaynal:
Anyone knows whether if it's possible to port Sony's Mobile Bravia Engine to our Sony Tablets? If I'm not mistaken, it was previously ported to Samsung phones.

Info: Mobile Bravia Engine combines contrast enhancement technologies used in Sony BRAVIA TVs with colour management, and adds sharpness filters and noise reduction to display vivid beautiful images and videos.
[Sony Tablet S] jumper62:
You probably need root on Tablet S for it to work
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
We have root now....
[Sony Tablet S] SWFlyerUK:
Have it installed on my Xperia Tablet S and doesn't seem to be much difference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yuros:
So, I got caught in a storm a couple of days ago and since then my port has been acting up. I can't charge it unless I've angled the port in a certain direction. Also, I have rooted my phone so I was kind of wary to go to the store and ask for a replacement. So I checked around as to how to check to flash counter. I had some difficulty getting to the download screen but once I did next to custom "something something", i can't remember, it said NO.

So my question are:

What could the possible cause be for the port messing up ?

-I've checked the battery and other strips to make sure they aren't pink and are still white. However, I'm pretty sure those strips wouldn't reflect it if the port were waterlogged.

-I tried the toothbrush trick. didn't work.

-I haven't tried the compressed air trick.

Are there any quick fixes or would my best bet be to ask the store?

Does the fact that the custom whatever thing says NO make my warranty viable and if so would a factory reset do the trick to get rid of all evidence of rooting?

Anyways, I've checked other threads and everything but I just wanted to make sure that it is a hardware issue and not some software issue that could be fixed. Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
probably not water damage. more like, putting your plug in wrong, yanking and plugging it in too hard. ETC after awhile it just wears down. That's my best guess.

Anyways are you on STOCK and just rooted? or running custom STOCK? then just remove superuser. you should be fine. if you're on a custom rom, then flash a stock rom via CWM. KRZ made a thread for that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yuros:
I haven't flashed a custom ROM. I just updated to ICS and rooted and even when i went into download mode I think it said I was running SAMSUNG STOCK or official or something like.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
when you say just rooted what do you mean. Do you mean you are on stock and the only true changes are superuser and a recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yuros:
Pretty Much. All I did was follow these two links

http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-t989-android-4-0-ics-uvle1-update-97763/

http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-t989-root-uvle1-97764/

It's not the exact link I followed but it was the same concept. And then i got a bunch of root applications like Titanium Backup and SetCPU and ROManager
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
you can just remove superuser. you can also flash stock recovery but i don't see anyone having issues doing warranty exchanges with CWM installed.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Me first
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ItsMeBdon:
Good job dman :D:D:D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
download link requires user name and password?

what?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
Hot damn!

I had to double take when I saw AOSP in the Glide development section. Will definitely flash this as soon as I'm able to download it (I'm stuck at the password thing like the guy above me).
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
it does the same to me!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
right?? haha. so excited. even if we are stuck with The Collective for now... :P JK man, love this stuff.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Oh crap.. lemme fix the link
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Link fixed... my bad...:o
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
thanks! downloading now!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Cm9 building now.. maybe have two aosp ROMs before long...:D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
easy bro... i'm only allowed so many thanks in one day! ha.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
This is still in early beta stage.. but with good feedback we'll get it dd ready:D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
anybody else getting a successful flash? two downloads now and both times install aborted because (bad)? that is to say, not "Good". haha.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] santimaster2000:
I freaking f*cking love you man !!! And yes, this time, I like the theme :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
It may be a bad upload.. I'll reupload in the morn
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
i can't actually complain, i'm just reporting back like i'm supposed to. i'd trouble shoot myself, but the brain has already checked out for the evening... lol.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] santimaster2000:
dman, I've just send you a little donation, 20 bucks more or less , hope it's enough for a beer :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
I can confirm that. Thankfully I had the wherewithal to nandroid. Patiently waiting till morning, I guess.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
download finished and transferred just fine in linux, but my card reader doesn't work in linux so i'm in win7 now and download freezes at 99% in chrome... weird. i feel weird posting non-development stuff here, but i guess this is supposed to help considering no one has actually gotten this to boot yet right? lol. sorry for all the posts, it's my friday night in my work week... so i've got all tomorrow to test too! :P

lol yeah I just opened the zip and its just the meta-inf folder and thats it... winrar says unexpected end of archive and closes. idk if you looked at it, i'm just reporting what i've found. so yes, maybe a bad upload? ;)

---------- Post added at 08:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 AM ----------

am i missing the link to your source too? is it on github or AOCP? Was going to build myself...but i might just turn in for the night.

---------- Post added at 08:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 AM ----------

also, whenever everybody else wakes up tomorrow and witnesses the awesome, be sure to lick the newsworthy button up top!!! maybe its just me, but first AOSP rom seems like kinda a big deal. i'm done now... time for bed.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
dman, what kernel is used? adracat's one?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
i'm assuming his own AOSP9/AOCP kernel, not a samsung based one. usually they're incompatible, but I may be mistaken. would love to do some more testing... its only 4am my time... lol. i have a problem
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Finally we have AOSP :).. thx DMAN for the work. Downloading the ROM right now but will test it over the weekend as i use my phone for my official mails a lot..
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
please post back to let me know i'm not crazy. if it works for you, i'm quitting android. ha
[Samsung Captivate Glide] elban:
hello!

thanks for bringing AOSP to the glide :)

now a little question: suppose my phone's on GB, should I first install official ICS with odin? is it needed?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
well its downloading at a snail crawling speed right now.. shows 34 min left .. hopefully it wont get stuck as per your update. Will definitely post back.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
mine downloaded crazy fast, transferred just fine then didn't install. "could not open blahblahblah.zip (bad)"

then i opened up the zip on my pc and it looks like this:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] timon12:
I can't download it, at 93% IDM says "error, time out" :(
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
that's ok cause i'm fairly certain something is wrong with the upload. no matter how many times i download it always gets an unexpected end of archive in winrar and fails to flash everytime. i know major sad face D:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
:crying: downloaded a corrupted file as well. after completion i cannot even open the zip file.. being optimistic trying it again
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
I said earlier its probly a bad upload.. I'll upload in a few... sorry for the inconvenience;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
Yep, looks like a corrupt upload. Download is 164,507,746 bytes and showing incomplete archive. Can't wait to give this a try. dman, any more info on your kernel? bootanimation.zip support, bln support, OC/UV support?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
The kernel is all mine.. pulled straight from Samsung open source as they have released the ICS kernel source for the glide...:D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Reuploading now
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
OK.. link should be good.. I just downloaded it myself to test and it was all there...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] timon12:
yep, rar file is fine now :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
I realize that... :P Just wondering what features, if any, you've added to it. I flipped through the github briefly to see if I could find a list, but there doesn't appear to be one.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Nah.. haven't had time to pimp the kernel out yet.. its pretty much just stock ICS kernel rooted for now . Just trying to get aosp off the ground first.. more to come tho...:thumbup::D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Working on a few issues reported by testers.. like keyboard and WiFi.. think I may have that worked out.. cm9 will be coming today also
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Kombatant:
dman, I can't thank you enough for taking the time to bring all that goodness to our phones. :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Evil Alex:
What he said, great work! Just gave it a try. It looks awesome, and I love how you can actually notice the vibrate setting now! It's not ready for prime time yet, but it's still a hell of a job! :) :good:

I don't think there are any issues you probably don't know yet, The only things that MIGHT be new are the screen not rotating when I slide out the keyboard, and SD-card problems. I noticed the screen rotation not happening when I tried to input my name during the initial setup, and it would only type lowercase letters. But perhaps that falls under the keyboard issue, as well.

It also claims straight away my SD-card is damaged and might have to be formatted before it can be used. I left it alone, as I did not want to lose my data, regardless of whether it pointed to the internal storage or the actual SD-card. Didn't want to chance it as all my back-ups are on it. It could be that I am using a 64GB SD-card, though...?

Even so, I am really impressed with this! I love the boot animation! I can't wait for the next update! :D

Thanks, again! :) :good:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
The backlight keys don't work very well for me and there not lit up. Also when I unlocked the phone it started vibrating and wouldn't stop I had to pull the battery.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
Did you try just touching something on screen? That worked for me.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
It might be a kernel issue.. I'm working on some kernel fixes now that might help
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
Hmm...no phone wifi or 4g
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Pyho:
You've re-added NFC to this ROM? Is it confirmed as working?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] greeneyez15o:
Same here
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Remember.. this is an alpha.. no 4g or WiFi. Try adding a new APN.. there is probably not one there.. I am working g on it. You can try my cm9 build to see if same issues are present. And.. if someone could flash ardatdat's kernel to see if that fixes anything so I can see where the issues lie.. thanks for the testing and feedback.. you guys are awesome..:thumbup:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Mortem Tuam:
Congrats Dman and crew! :good:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Also.. try flashing a different modem and see if that fixes the issue.. look in settings/about phone and see what the base and version is showing
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
I don't have a crew.. but thanks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bigwilly90210:
Well... Not yet... Ha
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dbrannon79:
I may finally get the chance tonight to try this out, but I have a question about cwmr 6. I'm running LiteRom 0.3 Ya the moment and made a backup using the recovery. If for some reason I need to restore, will I need to flash a kernel to bootloader? Or just restore using the recovery? Thanks.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Tyfighter:
I've been going back and forth from literom and cm9 all morning using cwmr backups, you should be good.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Pretty slick fluorescent black/orange theme. :D This Android firmware's neat, except for some bugs (keyboard mis-mapping might be a known bug by now). I am looking forward to the next revision of this OS.

dman3285, I like this ROM. :D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ThymeCypher:
With all due respect, this has to be the buggiest rom I've used to date - which is only annoying because it looks like it would be the best rom I've used to date.

I'll try redownloading to make sure it wasn't somehow a corrupt download that still flashed, but...

Wi-Fi does not turn on for over 5 minutes

Mobile data does not work

Camera will not start

Lock screen vibration will not stop once started until another call to the vibrator is triggered

Home button does not work

Display buttons do not light. Installing the keyboard fix zip fixes this, but does not fix the keyboard light

Cannot access SD-Card: "Damaged SD Card"

Installing GApps, Wi-Fi doesn't work at all, Phone radio does not work at all.

The rom is too unstable for me to even start to try to fix any of these... but damn, everything that does work is f**king beautiful!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
Hence the reason this is an ALPHA build. Aosp has never booted on this device.. I am working the bugs out 1 by one
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ludacris1:
Modem does not work :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dman3285:
OK.. I think I may have figured out the issue from logcat.. will run another build and see..
