I presume they didn't bother paying much attention to all the detail I provided regarding updating the database to match my MAC address. I've replied back asking for confirmation that they definitely can't remedy the issue remotely.

Ok I hate to be the idiot here, but I just ordered mine from Newegg.. What are we talking about unlocked? I have read the first two pages of the thread. What is the purpose of these devises being locked? I just keep thinking about carrier locking. Sorry for being the board idiot on this.

Unlocking the boot loader will allow you to 'root' your device to change functionality - this also allows you to install custom 'roms' which is a large part of what xda is all about.

I had to deal with this issue when I RMA's my device and had the system board replaced. When I got the device back I couldn't unlock it.

I resubmitted my TF300T under the same RMA stating my OTA function was broken, they sent me the unit back patched, but OTA was still broken. I re-submitted a 3rd time specifically stating I want the OTA update fixed, after 1.5 month's of RMA's they finally got OTA working which in turned allowed me to unlock my device.

I've had two RMA's for now and neither helped. Unit always came back with remarks "no problem found" :good:

my god how stupid they are back at repair shop?? :confused:

Now I'm doing my third RMA and HOPE I get conclusion I want, to be able to OTA and unlock.

My serial starts C7O and unit's bought from Finland
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kabuki!:
Wow, what a mistake it was getting this tablet.

I got it from New Egg, and it came with 4.1.1 on it.

I went through the steps with the unlock tool, but it didn't have a slider on it to actually unlock it with.

I registered, and it wouldn't take my serial number. Why on earth do they use both zero and the letter O in the way they do: the two look so similar. Couldn't they get by without using those two symbols? There are quite a few other letters in the alphabet along with a bunch of other numbers.

I sent an email, and he said he couldn't find my serial number.

I called them up and the woman finally found my serial number by substituting a zero for a "C". She said, "Oh, maybe the C is an incomplete zero." And, she then found the device.

Using that serial number I was able to register online.

Then she told me that she can't help me unlock it and that it would void my warranty, and she won't help me blah blah blah.

Guess what Asus?

This tablet has been a little weird anyway. It's shut itself off a few times just for the heck of it.

Transformer Pad TF 300T, I've had you for a week, and you're going back to New Egg you worthless piece of crap.

I see New Egg says that it's non-refundable.

I'm going to say that I think Asus is a lousy company and that I don't want to take any chances with them and ask to exchange for something different like a Galaxy Tab.

I see I can get a ten inch Galaxy Tab 2 for the same money. I see some threads on here, and it looks like those root pretty easily.

I am kicking myself for getting this damn Asus Transformer.

KICKING MYSELF!

Ok so February 13th (had to look up a few prior pages in this thread) was when i called and saw they had the wrong MAC. Gave them the right one. They said they would update my info and id be able to receive updates. Its now the 21st and i did another chat session. Guess what? they still had the old MAC so I gave it (MINE) to them again. They said the same thing about updating and said i would SOON be able to unlock. I asked what does soon mean. he basically gave me the same answer. I told him he just said the same thing, id like an idea what soon means. an hour? a day? 3 days? he just kept apologizing and didnt give me an answer. He said soon and that he would update it. I said excuse me for being annoyng but what is exactly involved with typing in a few digits. Just an apology. Yeah great. I love the device, but this is annoying to not be able to do what i want with it. :mad:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] giant25:
It sounds like your font size is too big and it is hiding the slider within the unlock tool. I think I posted somewhere else about how to fix it. Look around...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clemdaddy:
This unlock business is strange. I bought a refurbished unit a few months ago. I was running the latest firmware (V10.4.2.20). Side note, when updating to the latest firmware, my unit wouldn't auto detect the new firmware. I had to do it the manual way. About a month ago I tried the unlock steps and got the "unknown error". I didn't register mine (as some people are suggesting). I however would try to unlock every few days or so - which would fail with the same error. For some reason a few nights ago it worked.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xitrapharlax:
I hope you do have some success. My attempts to get support have concluded with triple confirmation that I have a MAC address problem and this means I must send my TF300t to a service centre. Unfortunately the triple confirmation was all from the same support person, and this was countered by my live chat confirming I have no issue at all....
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] draky:
Just wanted to post on here. I got my Tf300t on Friday early evening, registered it about an hour later then was able to unlock it in the morning when I first tried to. Good luck everyone with trouble.

Nope, my device was brand new and I can't unlock.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyr35blue:
Man that sucks. In my case I guess I will have to call a THIRD time to ask them to update my MAC even though I have already done 2 live chats in a month without it getting done.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
fed up

Getting fed up here, here's my story:

Bought the device in May 2012. Never been able to receive any OTA updates and the Unlock Tool didn't work (unknown error blah)

Jan 2013 sent the device in for a RMA telling them that the device cant receive updates and the unlock tool doesn't work.

Device came back in a week, with the latest Jelly bean. Guess wot? The unlock tool didn't work. I noticed the mobo was replaced and so it had a different MAC address. Serial number remained same.

Sent in the device AGAIN early Feb, explicitly telling them that the unlock tool doesn't work, make it work.Today i got it back saying "no problem found". And behold...the unlock still doesn't work. WTF.

Tempted, to keep on RMAing the device just to p!ss them off.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unixtall:
I have a similar problem. I bought the tablet and i unlocked the bootloader. But i had to send to ASUS because i had a problem with the tablet. So they changed me the motherboard. So now i have a locked bootloader. But i cannot unlock again. I called to ASUS and they say that in their systems i have unlocked bootloader, so i cannot unlocked again. But it is a new motherboard, the bootloader is locked! They say that, they cant do anything. They cannot to change these. So now i have not warranty and i cannot unlock the bootloader.!!

:(:(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
Asus to be honest have pretty incompetent technical support who are unable to understand customers' problems even when clearly spelt out. I have written to customer services and their UK director telling them just how incompetent they are.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xitrapharlax:
Well I've now called Asus Australia tech support and they claim my MAC address matches my device serial number. They can't help me further because I manually updated to the latest firmware (so I can't claim the OTA issue until the next update is released) and don't offer support for the unlock tool.

I guess this is the end of the road for me unless a non-asus unlock option becomes available.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
So today I got a reply via email (not letter yet) saying that he MAC address they hold is different to my device. Yeh, obviously. Funny, I told you that last month when you replaced my motherboard? WTF. They've asked for another RMA. Yes that's the THIRD RMA. It's great, they waste my time, I waste their money.

Plus their RMA forms are so sht, that you can't put punctation marks in their html form: "Failure description contains invalid signs. Letters, figures and the following special characters: - @ . _ are valid". Bunch of morons who implemented their website too.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyr35blue:
is the one click unlock really the ONLY way to unlock the bootloader? I have no hope that it will ever work for me so I was curious if there was another way.

Its rumoured that nvflash may be reinstated with the next update, my understanding is this *may* help those of us with the unlock bug.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
These people are seriously braindead. So the customer services chap said "send it in, we'll make sure the MAC address is updated" and today i got this reply:

Good God. Seriously do we have any hope in the world with people like this?

For those in the UK here's the details of the UK director. http://uk.linkedin.com/pub/benjamin-ju-an-yeh/17/74/a15

might be worth sending him a PM if you're on linked in. Not easy to get the Asus swichboard at the Hemel Hempstead premises. Haven't had a letter back from Complaints or him yet. (i CCd the letter).

This is ridiculous... Mine didn't work after the 4.2.1 update and new unlock tool either.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
LOL

Update on my story. Still have NOT heard from Asus complaints dept or their UK Director. Shame on you. However, I got the device back. Again, I see a report with the mainboard replaced and when I turned the device on, it seemed to do some Asus update automatically, went into repair mode saw the green android bot progress screen and now it boots into JB 4.2.1. Ok great.

I then downloaded the 4.2 Unlock Tool...and guess wot? It doesn't work.

This is great, I love wasting Asus' time and money. I'm going to do a 4th RMA. I wonder if I have the record?

I was reassured by Asus Tech just before I got the device:

Dear xxxxx,

Thank you for contacting the Asus Technical Support Team.

regarding the issue you are having with your unit with serial number:

xxxxxxxxxx

...The only thing I can say is that it should solve the issue with the boot loader.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact Asus Technical Support Department.

Kind regards,

Ruben Grummel

All I can say is LOOOOOL.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gurpal2000:
Another update. So the *4TH* RMA happened. They returned the device with JB 4.1.1 again. WTF.

The machine updated itself to JB 4.2.1 in the background. Ruben Grummel (the person dealing with my case since day 1) said I should use the unlock tool on the downgraded firmware. WTF. The tool didn't work on 4.1.1 nor did it work on 4.2.1. Asus = Seriously braindead.

I've asked for a *5TH* RMA.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agt7575:
No longer able to unlock

Here is my situation... I purchased my TF300T a year ago today (06-10-12). It has been through RMA twice, once for a cracked screen and the last time for low touch sensitivity.

When I first got my tablet from Overstock, the first thing I did was unlock the bootloader and root it, which I did with no problems... However, during the last RMA, ASUS had to replace the motherboard of the tablet, thus, locking the tablet again. I received the tablet back, but this time I was unable to unlock it, receiving the same error message that everyone else is getting. I called ASUS and they confirmed that the MAC ID's don't match, as the new motherboard has a different MAC ID than the original, and ASUS never updated this on their end. Lorn story short, they issued me a new RMA # because evident;y, they can not update their files without the tablet being in their possession. (the tech guy stated that its not as easy as hitting the edit command and inputting the new MAC ID).

I have not sent it back yet, as I wanted to give the online chat a try. LOng story short, the tech person stated that my serial number is shown to be unlocked while the tablet is locked. When they changed the motherboard, they locked the tablet again, but they do not change the status of the serial number, thus I CAN NOT LONGER UNLOCK MY TABLET FROM THIS POINT ON!!!!.... Weather I get the MAC ID issue fixed or not, Asus will no longer let me unlock the tablet because it was previously unlocked and that is what the serial number shows, even though the physical tablet shows as being locked.

I have just about had it with ASUS... Their RMA repair takes for ever... Their customer service is a joke at best (can they even get one person who speaks even a small bit of english, or even get someone who doesn't speak like they have marbles or a sock in their mouth??) Its such a shame because their products are top-notch (have always used an ASUS motherboard and other components when feasible) and their tablet have been reviewed to be the best Android tablets on the market.

Just seems like they care very little about their customers... They want you to buy their products, but not support them, or do very little to support them. What a joke.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJ_smooth:
Started out of the blue tonight while charging at my desk. The phone is making an intermittent high pitched hum and vibration. It is almost like the vibration motor is kicking on and off but it is a much higher frequency buzz than the vibration motor normally emits. Tried a reboot and it started doing it again immediately.

No ROM changes, installed a single application tonight (will uninstall but I have not even opened it yet.

Phone is getting hot :(

Running titanium backup then making a nandroid backup then crossing my fingers and praying.

I am eligible for an upgrade but none of the phones out there really interest me on ATT (and I won't switch, got grandfathered unlimited data and an ATT microcell, so I am married to them).

Phone is otherwise responsive and functional. It just feels like someone has cranked the vibration motor up to double speed and is randomly turning it on and off.

Any suggestions?

Hi, I re-sized a lot of wallpapers I had collected from all over the place, and figured I share them. Most are 1440x2560 or 720x1280. There is all kinds of different ones, like nature, abstract, animals, and Abe Lincoln holding a M16 and the Declaration of Independence while riding a grizzly bear. You know nice stuff.

Anyways I'll keep adding more and more over time. Please feel free to post your own wallpapers because I'm always looking for new ones to add to the collection. Thanks

[Nokia Lumia 920] malik2k1:
Hey Guys,

Has anyone with the Build Devkit version of the phone seen the OTA update? I'm on Rogers in Canada and I understand the phone isn't from them but still wanted to know if anyone else has seen the update on their phones and if I should even expect to receive the update anytime soon.

Any idea if we're going to get the update at all or are we supposed to go through Navifirm and lose our data?

Thanks!!
[Nokia Lumia 920] RustyGrom:
Nokia is saying that unlocked and international phones will have to wait until February for the update. We have different firmware than everyone else and it's not on Navifirm at all. I think you might be able to flash to the rogers firmware but it may or may not work (and/or brick it). Might have to just wait until February :(.
[Nokia Lumia 920] malik2k1:
That sucks.

You'd think that the Devkit units would get the update first but apparently not.

I guess I'll have to wait till Feb. Not willing to flash a Rogers firmware.

Thanks for the heads up!
[HTC Rezound] RezoundRebound:
Hello,

So I guess I logged myself out of my rezound? it gives me the option to put in my password but I don't know the password, and it says "forgot password" when i click that it says enter username(gmail) and password. but when i DO it says it's invalid.

I obviously know my password/email and just checked them on gmail on my computer, so that's not it either. My device is not rooted, and runs ICS.

Is there anything I can do to avoid doing a factory reset at this point? Because I don't have a sim card and that would wipe all the data.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
I would go to Verizon, they should be able to help you.

Anyone helping you on here might be helping you to hack into someone else's phone, so I'm not sure anyone will tell you how to do it if it is even possible.
