[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dutch81:
Had an idea to build a charging dock as it would alleviate two problems when not having the keyboard dock

a) Some games/apps refuse to rotate so it can make it difficult to charge and use the application.

b) The charging port on the tablet itself is precariously positioned imo and may be prone to breakage if not careful when charging.

So having some scrap 0.093 inch acrylic sheet I began to measure, cut, and come up with a prototype to later possibly have a friend cut the pieces properly as that's what he does for a living and do the bends for the legs. I designed mine so I would not have to take off my case so that it would simply slide in case and all or if i take out the spacers just the tablet alone will fit.

This is what I came up with using rough cuts ie score with razor and snap then file to finish. sorry if the photos aren't great just finished up the project and it's time for bed. .

i170.photobucket.com/albums/u268/vega59405/dock/DSC00007_zps31215d01.jpg

In the final dock I'll change the legs a bit (which atm you cant see) with an under bend to shorten their length behind and add more stability

Also the final dock will have smaller screws and screw hole positioning will change.

Tomorrow I'll gather my measurements and take more pictures if anyone wants them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bunnybash:
Cool, would love to see some pictures
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Restorer:
Yeah, keep them coming man. You've given me some ideas. How great it would be to charge or hook up the prime by just sliding it into a dock - case and all!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dutch81:
Well instead of posting pictures of my cobbled together version I'm posting a pic of the rendered final version I did sketch up as well as the sketch up file. This is the version I will send to my friend to have cut out and have the bends in the legs done. A couple things of note first my case doesn't have anything covering the front bezel so I don't need a spacing piece there but one can be added to suit your needs. Just simply add one of the pair of spacers from the back to the front. Second my case is really only adds ~ 3/32" thickness to the prime itself so I only needed one spacer in the back in front of the back piece. I myself am having two extra sets of of spacers cut simply so that if I change cases I have them available. Third on my leg design I adjusted the angle to include rubberized stick on feet in a 1/16th thickness. If you choose to omit those it would be recommended to adjust the leg height to not include them.I any one chooses to make one please reference your own measurements vs mine as all things are not built to the same tolerances and my measurements may not work for your device. I.e. I have 3 different charging cables and each one is slightly different from the other.

OK, I've seen this twice (so it isn't complete death) but wanted to see if anyone else had any ideas. I've done a complete shut down (power button for 8 sec) and then couldn't get it to turn back on. When this is happening, I can plug it in and see the green charging light. Holding the power button then for 8 sec will make the green light go out. Pushing it again, light comes on. So the button is working... If i leave it for awhile, the nook will then reboot and appear to work normally...

If your device battery level is below 10 percent it will not turn on until it charges up to at leat 15 percent level. Then it will turn on.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbh369:
I think that is the mechanism stopping it, but it is malfunctioning, I'm at about 90% this last time...

Is there ther equivalent of 'battery stats' somewhere that can be affecting this? or is this hardware? It should be turning on fine at 80-90% but no. However, plug in for 10 mins and it works fine. So that seems to be the problem.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dbh369:
OK, this is getting worse, I'm now at 100% charge and it happened. Weirder still, if I leave it plugged in for awhile, it will reboot on its own.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
I have not had this happen on my HD but something similar has happened on my HD+. It seems to be related to whether an SD is plugged in. I have to take the SD out, press power off for a while, then release and momentarily press power again.

I know on the Nook Colors, they would not turn on unless it could find the boot files to boot from. So if a user formatted his internal boot partition by mistake, it would not turn on unless a bootable SD with active boot files was in the slot. Something akin to this may be happening, only in reverse.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrangerX:
Something similar happened to my HD+ running the 12/31 build of verygreen's CM. In my case, I think it was precipitated by the battery draining too far first, though. Very weird and a little spooky, but glad there's a workaround.

Nook HD Plus won't charge

I've seen dozens of reports of this. The symptoms are all about the same.

The unit drains the battery, even if you plug it in, it still drains, so although the charger and cable are fine, something inside the Nook doesn't get the memo.

It drains down to the point where it turns off. Then every time you plug it in, the light goes green, then amber, then off. The battery never charges.

I tried taking the unit apart and disconnecting the battery overnight, but that didn't seem to help. I suspect something in the software gets in a "vapor lock" where a dead battery condition is mistaken for a fully-charged battery condition. I only paid $109 for it refurbished, so it isn't worth another $60 for a new battery, and I don't think there is anything wrong with this battery.

If I knew the pinouts of the battery connector, I might try charging it without going through the Nook. Perhaps if it was actually fully charged, the "vapor" would realign.

Does anyone have another idea, apart from the nitwit stuff Barnes & Noble allows on its forums, like "push the cable in harder" or try another adapter. I notice they aren't interested in entertaining any idea that their firmware is at fault.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sherip:
It will not charge when plugged in if OTG USB is activated (e.g., to connect a USB keyboard). That's happened to me a few times using unofficial VG CM versions where the USB state can be changed inadvertently from a pull down drawer. If the USB isn't toggled back to normal in time to recharge the battery before its completely discharged, it might not be revivable.

I cant get my nook to turn on. I try charging it and a little green light comes on at the bottom and stays on for about 3 seconds and then a orange light comes on for about 3 seconds and then it shuts off. I dont know if the light is supposed to stay on while it is charging. Sometimes it comes up with a dead battery sign but it just goes right back off.

Hi gyus,

I want to go back to stock, preferably to the 4.04 ROM. Otherwise the JB ROM. I have flashed stock recovery, relocked bootloader but I don't know which RUU I need. I have a European unbranded One S. Bought in The Netherlands.

CID: HTC_001

HBOOT 2.15.0000

RADIO: 1.11.50.05.28

Help is appreciated!

Do you keep your nandroid backup. Maybe just restore that.

I don't have a nandroid backup of my stock rom, only of flashed custom rom. Never thought I needed it but need to send my phone in for repair.

Shouln't be a problem with the correct RUU right?

edit: I tried this one but it didn't work: RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.78.401.2_Radio_0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L_release_258480_signed

Hey,

I have same hboot and radio as OP, but cid is HTC_Y13, does that change anything?

Can you help me find any working stock ruu? I searched the thread by Football from S4 section since my phone has to be S4, because I already had installed Dark Jelly S Edition and JellyBam. Tried about 3 of those there (one was RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.1_R_Radio_0.14.3059.14_2_release_243825_signed) Is that one even close to a working one? Does the ruu have to have exactly the words "2.15.000 or 1.11.50.05.28?

Also when I have tried some the ruus in the installed it says Source: 3.16.401.8. What does that mean?

Thanks.

Hi thanks for the link the only think I missing is how do I put file on sd when whone only boots to hboot?

Should I unlock it, then custom recovery, then try to connect storage from the recovery copy files over and then flash?

Thanks,

Ok, after trying 3 different recoveries I managed to get storage mounted and working on windows, once I have the file image I will try to copy over and try what you suggested. I hope the phone will come back.

UPDATE:

Flashing zen 1.05 rom solved (so far) all the problems I had, Initially they cured when while on cwm recovery I got OTA update, since then I had problems with mounting sd, battery drain etc. Now thanks to NQNH and Zen team I'm back on great 4.04 and sense 4.1. Thanks guys

i really like your review.

im hoping to receive my order next week.

can you share more information about battery life, built quality of the phone

Do you use any bumper/case? Its not even gorilla glass, so i kinda afraid about that point.

also, where you order the accessories from?

I want the dark blue panel, and external batt + charger.

the only option is alibaba. but i was looking for something geographically closer so it will arrive faster

and just last mark, to make sure, it uses regular sim card, correct? like in galaxy s2, not s3 (microsim) ?

edit: I just saw you wrote this as one of the points at the start of the post. thank you for clarifying :)
[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
Testing the battery is something complicated, indeed you need a given procedure that you do on more than one device, so you can compare it.

If i told you i stay 2 days you'll be happy but i may not told you, that during these two days, i didn't use the phone, so only saying that the device stay X hours/days alone without any further information is useless.

the quality is amazing, people that saw the phone (by far) will think it is an iphone5 ^^ (same formfactor)

i'm not using any case or bumper (i may plan to buy one to be sure the phone is well protected)

I don't know if it is gorilla glass or not and i really don't wish to test it, i hope it is... to be sure i may buy a screen protector, but unfortunately, i did not found something cheap right now :(

the accessories i have, are gift i received from the site i bought it (i gave a link on first post)

the cover was included in their december deal. The OTG cable was a surprise gift ;)

Yes the phone use regular sim (no micro or mini sim)
[Xiaomi Mi 2] eranyanay:
you're correct about battery life,

my intention was just if it rally feels as 2000mah, comparing to your galaxy nexus, for example

but nevermind :)

about screen protector, look for nillkin products, i heard they're good and they have both matte and clear screen protectors.

they also have lite & full version, wheres the full has also protection for camera lens

I like the blue cover. its some sort of matte feeling?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] Simona Bellocchio:

i like your review a lot:)
[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
in fact i don't know if a screen protector is needed

on chinese xiaomi forum ( http://bbs.xiaomi.cn/thread-4506805-1-1.html ) they said that the MI2 has dragontrail glass (something like gorilla glass, maybe even better)

and when you see how this guy tested his Xperia : http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=F92CvRflk18

unfortunately, i'm not going to do this kind of test on my phone ^^

but if someone send me a MI2, i would be happy to do this test ;)

so why does xiaomi doesnt say it in the specs?

is it for real?
[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
a lot of company does not say it for gorilla glass too :(

i don't understand that, for me this is a kind of information, that is as important as the CPU spec :)

but maybe they don't say it, to prevent people beeing mad if they get a scratch ... after all, its a protection, but it does not protect against everything ...:eek:
[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
if you order it through my referal link that is in my review, i can get some cashback. i'll use this cashback to buy other material like a 3100mAh, screen protector, hdmi cable or what ever (if they had it on stock).

Each material i get with the cashback, will be reviewed and tested like i did for this phone ^^. So if you guys order phones with my link, i'll get stuff for less price and i promise to make a review of each material I get that way.

Methinks Gorilla Glass would not have been impervious to the drop either. Supposedly the Mi2 uses Dragontail which is as good or better than Gorilla, and as evidenced by a youtube video circulating around demonstrating Dragontail on a Sony (Ericsson?) phone, I'd have to agree.

[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
about what ? the phone ?

i'm not finished with this phone, still discover it ^^

right now i would say 93 point of 100

1 point lost because the keys are not illumated at night, even if this saves batterie i prefere seeing what i do ^^

1 point lost because it only have 3 keys whereas i'm used to have 4 keys ( home, back, running apps, options)

2 point lost because it does not have the ability to install alternive roms like CM or AOKP. Even if i always install MIUI on my phones, i like freedom of choice

3 point lost because even if the photos are pretty good, i think that the iphone5 makes better photos (but this is NOT the same product price ^^ )

- performance : it is the best right now so 100 points

- sound : it level is more than acceptable and the dolby equaliser does great job so also 100 points

- batterie : i'm still testing it ... so can't say if good or bad, but it seams to last longer as my galaxy nexus

- GPS: fix in about 1 second and a the best precision i ever had

- video : i did not find it worser than others so also 100 points

- photo : they are good, but i need to compare to iphone5.. i have the feeling that iphone5 does even better (so i need to check at my coworker)

ibuygou gifts

Hi Alain, did you receive the gifts (cable, back cover) from ibuygou as a surprise OR were you expecting them? Before ordering I would like to know if the phone will come automatically with gifts like OTG cable or shall I order them separately for extra dollars.

Update: ibuygou said they are not sending any more gifts, when you now order a phone. Lucky you! :)

I liked your review. One question: other reviewers mentioned in other forum topics that voice volume during calls is sometimes very low (even when you set it to maximum) and you can struggle understanding each other, when make calls from noisy surroundings. That is supposed be due to the agressive noise surpression/filtering function that unfortunately affects the voice volume quite negatively.

Did you experience anything like this?

Thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 2] alain57:
well compared to my galaxy nexus, the volume during calls is a lot better.
