[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Same problem here: Got a brand-new TF700 yesterday (my GF threw my old TF201 to the floor, it is totally broken now)

Problems:

- No OTA updates (my tablet is on 10.4.4.23)

- Device Tracker not working (says Serial Number is unknown)

- Asus Unlock Tool gives me some unknown network error

I have called the hotline from Asus Germany yesterday. They gave me two MAC addresses which are stored in their system for my device, the second one was the right one.

So I'd rule out some issues with my MAC address. I wonder why Asus has two MAC addresses for my device, though.

For me it seems that my device cannot connect to Asus at all, probably some Asus server issues?

However the Asus guay told me that I should try it for a few days, if it still doesn't work I have to RMA it.

Until now I am really dissapointed. My old TF201 was a POS with the Asus Software, I used Androwook with Data2SD and the thing just flew.
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Still not working, but I have a logcat now.

I think these are the errors that matter:

I guess the most important is this one:

It seems that the tablet tries to connect to the Asus server, but the server cannot certificate itself???
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
I just called Asus Germany again, and I had a competent employee at the phone!

He told me that Asus currently has server problems and that the servers are probably down the whole weekend.

On Monday it should work again.

He also said that he doesn't believe that the problem is my tablet, but if it doesn't work on Monday I should call again.

So, let's wait and see...
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Update: Still does not work.

Called Asus again and the hotline-guy confirmed that this is most likely a problem with the Asus server. He opened a ticket and I had to create an additional ticket via the Asus support-page.

I was promised to get an answer within 48 hours, so let's see...
[Asus Transformer TF700] simplytheone:
good morning...

i never get any information or service over the ticket server... i call asus today aggain... :mad::mad:
[Asus Transformer TF700] simplytheone:
5 minutes ago i get a call from asus...

the mainboard of my tablet is not the original... i need to send it to asus to fix it (3weeks waiting time or more)

wtf... iam angry... new tablet ???
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Hm. I've opened a ticket via the Asus Germany page yesterday. Today I got a first answer. They needed the S/N and the MAC-address, although I gave them these informations already via phone.

According to the hotline, the problem should be the Asus server. So I assume that I don't have to send it in. But let's wait and see...

My old TF201 made no problems whatsoever when I unlocked it. So I assume that once that issue is fixed, I will be satisfied with the device.

Can't wait to try out CM10.1 and CHROMI :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] DarkFire1985:
I have RMA'd my device twice, after getting my mainboard replaced, to get the MAC-address fixed.

Both times I got my device back without a fix and no possibility to unlock / root / downgrade or anything.

I contacted ASUS Germany again and asked for them to see if ASUS HQ in Taiwan can fix the issue as they appear to be able to as reported by a guy in this topic: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1795156

They replied that they would contact ASUS HQ.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fsured:
I emailed Tien about this issue last night and he responded that they are aware of the problem and it's up to Asus HQ to fix the problem with the unlock tool. The issue is occuring with tablets that are brand new, bought when the unit first came out, have had RMA service, and they don't know why this is occuring. Being that the tool would void warranty it isn't exactly a high priority for them to solve. He actually apologized for the incovience and run around I got from email/phone support. There are people in Asus who care about the products and customers.

Calling in is really a chance in what end result you get. Some reps won't help because the "unlock" tool isn't supported by them and voids warranty. Same with the device tracker website. One rep I spoke with had no idea what the tracker was and kept insisiting that it wasn't an Asus product and supported by them. The real solution is finding a way to pressure\get Asus HQ to address the problem with the tool. They have already made the sale and profit from us buying the tablet and the warrning about voiding warranty is clear. It free's them of any further obligation to the device and means they can save money by not having to support hardware\software failures caused by the owners desire to modfiy things.

Till then I'll try a few times through the day and maybe get lucky with the tool working.
[Asus Transformer TF700] simplytheone:
... next day with waiting

next day with waiting... asus say @ the last call i need to send the tablet back to rms...

i report the support guy from all the user who send the device back to asus and get only a update on JB and no fix of the mac/serialnumber error...

@ this point the supporter give the ticket to the next supporter... and i have to wait... i dont know why asus germany cant comunicate with asus usa and fix the problem without send the device back... i think its the cheapest way for asus...

i think i have to give my tablet back in the shop the german support dont get the problem... i wait now 1 week max...

New Day new eMail:

asus send my Ticket to the ASUS HQ (I think its a good message)
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Nothing new here. I'm waiting for an answer from Asus.

I hope they simply fix the issue on their servers and I don't need to discuss about sending my tablet in. Perhaps it is a good sign that the answer takes a few days...

i going today to the reseller and hope i can give the tablet back... **** asus... known problem but no support ;(
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
This is weird - I just have received a mail from Asus which states that my problem has been forwarded to Taiwan and will be fixed during the next 3-4 days.

I just describe what I did, perhaps this helps you:

- First I called the Asus Germany hotline. There I already got the 2 MAC-addresses which are stored at Asus for my device so I could check whether this is the problem

- Then I was told I should wait a few days, usually it works, then

- After a few days I called again. I got a new ticket ID and was told to open an online ticket where I should reference the ticket ID provided. I did.

- First answer: Serial Number/ MAC needed. ==> Sent them the MAC/ S/N

- Second answer: Have you rebootet, have you factory reset, have you tried another access point? ==> I answered yes, yes and yes. Then I wrote that my tablet works correctly, that my MAC address has already been verified, that on XDA there are a lot of users with the same problem and that I can provide Logcats to proof that the Asus-server rejects my request

- Third answer: Forwarded to Taiwan now. :)

Good Luck!
[Asus Transformer TF700] simplytheone:
all this points i have done... but the supporter say: the Boss denied to do this and the only way is RMA...

wtf...
[Asus Transformer TF700] BabelHuber:
Finally I could unlock my tablet!

This is proof that the Asus Server was the problem, not my tablet.

Good luck to all who still have to convince the Asus support to forward their ticket to Taiwan!

During my latest factory resort I did the whole pus volume up + home + power sequence. When I got to theme boot screen I had all the usual stuff but I noticed that at the bottom was the green android guy laying down with his chest open and a red exclamation mark coming out of it. Is this normal?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pcshano:
my friend, welcome to recovery mode.

if i remember correctly(only been to stock recovery once), stock recovery is like that

and yes it is normal

Thanks. Just leaning about ROMs and what not. Loving this phone.

Thanks again
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pcshano:
if you are planning to root your phone, i'd suggest get TWRP recovery instead of CWM, a lot more friendly to use.

Yeah. Soooo many things to choose from now lol
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Skripka:
The Surface-design holster sucked...the new holster design sucks even more. The only positive change is that it looks like now you can lock the holster...in exchange for which you get a holster that protects your screen even less.

What moron at Seido thinks a holster shouldn't protect the screen?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Techronico:
I disagree... The screen would be facing inward so you don't need to have a bunch of extra material in that space. Also all the Convert holsters have had locking mechanisms.

The other holsters I have seen are ones that make you slide the entire phone along the length into the holster...making it extremely difficult. I've always liked Seidio's holsters because it is very secure yet very accessible.

You are entitled to your opinion.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Skripka:
I go to a work site. The holster keeps out no dust or other particles in the air whatsoever. This case is even worse at keeping foreign matter out. All it takes is one stray piece of sand quartz getting in there and your screen can be trashed. I actually ghetto rigged a $0.05 USD piece of foam to my Surface holster to better protect the screen. You're paying $60 for the damn Surface case and more money for the extra bits. It should freaking protect your screen, not leave it to open to anything coming in.

With so little plastic material in the holster, your damn holster is also far more prone to breaking. The spider design holster looks cool...but functionally speaking is an abysmal design error....and an accident on may levels waiting to happen.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Techronico:
I agree that if you are working at a construction site it would let a huge amount of dust in...Maybe you could communicate to them that you would like to have the option to have a fully covered holster for better debris protection when holstered. @seidioseidio on Twitter.

I guess an OBEX would be better in that situation. Somehow my feeling is that this case is more marketed for the office dweller/ninja who will likely encounter desk corners while running briskly to their desk to get there before their boss sees that they are 15 minutes late...

Seidio has been very good on quality and I think if the thing were to break with little effort then they would replace it for you and realize they need a design change. I saw that, when they had the first spider skeleton Convert (called Rugged back then), where the clip ends broke if consistent removal and replacement (from switching batteries all the time). When I called them on it, they improved the quality and sent a new one to me and my coworkers, which had stronger clip ends...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Techronico:
I just got some info that the Convert's Holster has a removable belt clip which will be compatible with further accessories coming in the spring. I will update this further as I get more info. :good:
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bond32:
Re: Seidio Convert (Rugged/Heavy Duty Case) Now Shipping

Convert is a pretty good case. I gave the one for the s3 a good review. While it isn't the best for some because dirt can get in places it shouldn't be, I would think it has the best impact resistance. Plus you get the functionality of the surface case.

Regarding the price, I believe they had the s3 convert priced similarly. I was able to get it from Amazon with prime shipping for $40. This was the convert combo with one holster not the 2 holster version.

Re: Seidio Convert (Rugged/Heavy Duty Case) Now Shipping

That case is not worth all that money. I paid for 50 for my otter box case and it's the best case u can have for the note 2. It covers ur whole phone and protect ur screen plus it have a holster.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LBJM:
Re: Seidio Convert (Rugged/Heavy Duty Case) Now Shipping

I didn't realize your thread was for the non extended version of the Convert case, sorry about that. On a side note I already have a $12 clone of the convert case for the oem battery. My interest in the seidio convert case is only of the extended variety.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] donelam304:
ok. im a noob when it comes to the note 2. i have a bionic and im buying the note 2 with income tax money this week hopefully. i have read a lot on the note 2 and have not seen anything on an extended battery. anyone have a link on info on this. i had the extended battery with my bionic because ut eats the batteries in an hour or 2. .

on case info. i have been leaning toward the otterbox case fr when i buy mine. simply because it makes it almost bullett proof. lol. i had one for my bionic and loved it. had to modify it to fit the extended battery. i had to cut out part of the hard back case on it. but itstill worked great. i even dropped off the step on the fire truck at about 50mph and it still wored with no damage what so ever. lol. so they will always get my money. unless someone shows me something better.

[HTC Sensation] alitomari:
I'm using Bruce's rom, and I will be talking with someone on the phone, and about 10 minutes in, the call will just end. Then I have to call them back and it's incredibly annoying. On average it's every 10 minutes, but sometimes it's 20 minutes, one time it was within the first minute of the call. I tried reflashing the rom, installing the newest tmobile radio with dish, and fixing permissions, but I'm still getting this issue. Does anyone have any suggestions or something else I can try? I'm in the usa with tbmobile.

I'm a little bit worried. I have the affected chip. I'm currently on Omega 10 with Perseus- alpha 32.1 and TWRP 2.4.1.0 recovery, am I safe?

I have the device from beginning of November.

My second question is how much time in weeks or in months did you use your phone before it died (SDS- phone won't start up, only the red little light is blinking)?

Thanks.

The webpage shows a blurry glimpse of the phone whenever the clock's seconds digit hits "1" second (51, 41, etc.). And the "1" turns green, further indicating that the new device will be carry the "One" branding.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ImagioX1:
As far as rooting and custom roms go I dont know, but definantly not on the phone specs itself. Even if it had basicly the same specs as the dna it wouldn't be a let down.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I'll probably be looking for an upgrade to my One X in the next few months. So in terms of that, I don't think it will disappoint. Of course the DNA is very recent, so the new flagship wont be a huge leap forward in comparison. But the DNA isn't an option for me anyway.

Not sure I'm crazy about the looks of the new phone in the leaked photos (if they turn out to be true). But specs wise, I think I'll be happy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mikebb00:
I'm excited but disappointed with HTC not getting with AT&T to push Jelly Bean to our HTC One X... This will probably be my last HTC device, spent $549 on this phone to find it obsolete 9 months later while every other manufacturer is pushing JB to their devices. The issue is with HTC & AT&T, both are coming close to being on the same level in my opinion. This is the best phone I've ever owned and it's camera proved itself next to a Canon ELPH 320 HS & Canon T3 --- but if a company wants to purposely outdate their phones, they will lose customers such as myself.

Odd to see this type of comment on XDA. XDA exists so we can mod our phones however we like, not wait around for stock OTAs from our carrier. Just unlock your bootloader and be done with it. Jellybean has been available since last July (in the form of CM10), and "official" Sense JB since December. AT&T JB is not going to bring us anything we don't already have now.
