[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intercrew:
Thanks for the info, I guess we won't be able to know which sound chips both phone uses until it's fully dismantled. I literally love music and could be considered an audiophile and that is one of the major problems when it comes to non-removable back - no microSD. FLAC files are big and a phone is something I have at all times which makes it really convenient for me to add music to.

Now, the American variant galaxy s3 sucked hard, processor, gpu, sound card all lacked and pretty much sucked compared to the iPhone 5 aside from the removable back but even then, what's the point when rest of the hardware sucked.

I'm just skeptical of the Snapdragon cpu and the Adreno GPU as again both were in the American variant of the S3. And at the same time was not very efficient, lags are very noticeable even with a 2gb RAM.

I know benchmarks are not everything and real life usage is, and I'm curious how the CPU and GPU of the ONE competes with the S4. I saw a video of Real Racing 3 running on the ONE earlier today and it seemed to have all the rendering/graphics properly in place such as reflections on the mirror and car itself, which what the iPhone is running right now. That's good news as it can run that game well.

I currently own an S3 and the ONE seems like it'll be neat phone to try out but the concerns are the hardware competition and 3rd party development such as rooting, ROM's, etc - I heard HTC phones don't have a larger "hacking" community compared to Samsung or any other phones.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stompazorb:
Regarding flac and big files: You could use the USB OTG connectivity and add any sort of USB storage. It's not as slick as a microsd but at home in front of the stereo it really doesn't matter.

BTW, I'm also very keen on knowing what DAC they've used. Hoping it's the Wolfson :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
Sorry if anyone else had this problem..I searched a bit and couldnt find anything. Basically...my s-note cant find any of my notes. I can find the notes under storage/sdcard0/S Note. they are all there, but for some reason S-Note wont find them. I can even hit the menu button in s-note, hit import, get to the files...then just open it. I can open and save, but it still wont pick up the file(s) in the s-note 'homescreen' where you can usually see all the notes. Maybe this happened since I dirty flashed from beanstown's jellybeans 10 to 11. Im kind of lazy to do a full reflash and set up all my homescreens again, especially as Im not sure that would even fix it.

So yeah, if anyone has any input that would be great-- I use s-note a lot and having to go to import every time for each single file, just to have it not remain there is getting pretty annoying. Also, its really slow as every time i open s-note it searches for note files.

Any ideas?:o
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
nothing, huh?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheodorK11:
Idk what the problem could be, but have you ever flashed from a CM to Beans? Also another option in SNote is synching with GoogleDocs or Ever note...just an option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
nope, my note 2 was stock, then beans10, then 11. I tried syncing with google docs, but it just gets stuck on synchronizing as I assume its looking for the files, so.. same issue.

Only other thing I could think to do was was create a new folder "S Note" and move all my notes from the original "S Note" folder and hope it stuck, but to no avail. Appreciate the input though.:)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheodorK11:
Try moving the notes from the snote folder on your internal SD, clearing the data for SNote, then moving the files back into the folder on your internal SD. I just did it on my Note 10.1 and SNote started syncing flawlessly. Have you tried that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
Damn, tried a couple times, one with just wiping from build in app manager, again with TiBackup, and once wiping with both. Wouldnt sync up any of these times. Idk what could be the problem. Wish there was a way to just point it to the damn folder. :p

Thanks again for your help though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheodorK11:
Did you dirty flash from Beans10 to 11?

Another option would be to backup apps and then clean flash B11.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] 1ManWolfePack:
Did you install the Samsung setup wizard in aroma? Beans noted it's required for some Sammy apps. On the same screen of the install where you picked S-voice.

It's worth a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] satchko:
Yup, I did dirty flash. Yeah I've finally given up...just flashed, going thru aroma installer as I type.

Yeah, I think I may not have. I've given up and just reflashed, so I'll make sure to do that right now.

Thanks again, both of you.

Thought I'd start new thread for 4.2.1 Update Discussions, issues and other info

So first thing:

I have found out on 4.2.1 if you do fastboot command

fastboot -i 0x0b05 getvar all

The "bootloader" "recovery" & "boot" partitions are now in basic format, which means the fastboot format command will no longer work on these partitions as it is not a recognized format in fastboot, I never did try this on 4.1.1 when these partitions where in emmc format but believed it would have worked - anyone confirm this?

Does any one HDMI issues after the 4.2.1? ( Only reply if you confirmed having a working hdmi on 4.1)
[Transformer TF300T General] vap_66:
HDMI worked great on 4.1 and still works great on 4.2. Don't like the black sidebars, but I can live with it. Locked and unrooted.
[Transformer TF300T General] pjc21:
More info:

Also one thing you might notice with 4.2.1 is that the developer options is now hidden in settings, to un-hide go to settings and click on about tablet and then on build number click 7 times, a count down will appear as you go & then you will have developer options again. :good:
[Transformer TF300T General] hgoldner:
Can you explain what you mean by black sidebars? Some have reported limited resolution for HDMI out on 4.2.1. Since the main reason for my acquisition of this particular tablet was the HDMI out, I don't want to lose what I have on 4.1.1 with an update. This is my main reason for waiting to do the update.
[Transformer TF300T General] one-contezero:
If you use HDMI output for watching movies stay with 4.1.

4.2 update has completely broken HDMI output, it's impossible to have a real fullscreen on a 16:9 TV, now I have black sidebars and for some apps the bottom bar remain always visible, for me it's almost impossible to watch any multimedia on TV with HDMI.

The problem is shared with Nexus 10, I've already posted this link in Q&A forum, but I repost it here hope that it may be helpful:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=40225
[Transformer TF300T General] vap_66:
I've played a 720p movie and it was outputted at 720p to the TV, so in my case the resolution is correct, at least for HD movies. Didn't test with full HD though. The issue is that, as the above poster mentioned, the tablet outputs at a 16:10 ratio, so on a 16:9 TV you'll have black bars on each side of the TV screen. I can also confirm that the bottom bar is visible with almost all apps I've tested. Some people reported some sound output problems (as in no sound at all), but I have none. I've found out that you cannot set the sound volume once you've connected the HDMI cable to the tablet. So, rise the volume on the tablet before connecting the HDMI cable, otherwise it will output at zero volume and you'll have no sound on the TV.

[Transformer TF300T General] Dr.Alexander_Breen:
Has anyone noticed that in 4.2 layout mode tablet works noticeably faster than in 4.1 mode?
[Transformer TF300T General] vap_66:
They seem equally fast in my case. But I also use Nova.

I find it annoying that the Panorama mode of the camera can work only if I start the camera with the tablet in horizontal orientation. If I start it while the camera is held vertically, I'll get only a black screen.
[Transformer TF300T General] litscript:
Aside from HDMI my other issues with 4.2 have been

1. Bluetooth audio lag in games still there

2. Bluetooth controllers like PS3 no longer recognized

3. When selecting recent apps the screen goes black instead of just fading when using Multi-picture live wallpaper

Otherwise I really like this update

It feels real smooth after Root and Lagfix.

Games run well nothing like 4.1.1. Stock. Shadowgun runs well even on balanced mode.

I've gotten used to the 4.2 launcher tho I use Apex launcher in Tablet mode to bridge the gap. (Cause who wants to feel like their using a big ass phone right).

It seems like the core I/O has been stepped up I'm not a speed test guy but I think the improvements are noticeable.

Coming from Hydro-7 with Unters Kernel where everything worked does feel like I'm going backwards a bit. The deciding factor for the switch was the hope that bluetooth audio lag in games had been corrected which it isnt. Plus now no PS3 controller support? WTF? but the improvements keep me holding on.

Bottomline: If you use you tablet as a straight up table with no bluetooth or HDMI accessories its great. My hope is that when the kernal is released our amazing devs can fill in the missing pieces maybe from the 4.2.2 update.
[Transformer TF300T General] Evan_:
A few days later into 4.2.1, I am pretty satisfied with the update. There is an appreciable performance increase (or should I say: smoothness) with switching between applications and the new 'recent apps' menu. I now feel less nervous with using multiple applications, and I do not feel a need for a task manager/killer. I also like the fact that YouTube doesn't forget the position I paused the last video, after I've left it for a while.

The 4.2.1 launcher is a step back, seems to use more screen space (the extra top bar) and less features (the ASUS pop-up panel is missing). I use the previous 4.1.1 style launcher.

With the next update (4.2.2?), which will hopefully iron things out, I am going to do a device reset to start again fresh and maybe get even more performance.

Thanks to ASUS for being good with updates.

system bar lock

Hi!

My issue with this version:

When i use the system bar lock and i want to unlock it i am asked for a password. I'm sure that this never happened at 4.1 and i have no idea where i can set the password. Is this a problem to anyone else?
[Transformer TF300T General] Silas0220:
Considering the current status of ROMs and 4.2.1, is there anything I can do to improve smoothness and response with my tablet on stock 4.2.1, unlocked, rooted? Or do I just need to be patient until some ROMs start filtering through?
[Transformer TF300T General] urushiol:
Some background first...

I was unlocked and rooted running TWRP and Clean rom. I did a complete system wipe, right down to the internal memory via TWRP and installed the zip straight from asus. I then installed the patched TWRP for 4.2.1, and installed superuser for root.

I have made no changes to the system at all. Everything seems to be running smoother than with 4.1. I must say I'm so glad asus left the old launch/UI in there, i tried the 4.2 UI and HATE it.

I have found only one bug. I used my tablet to type large fields of text into form fields on a webpage for my job. I probably type about 2 hours per day on my TF300t using the dock. I never had the first problem before, but now, if I'm in the stock browser, and I start typing, hit backspace, type some more, and hit backspace a second time, the browser simply disappears, no FC, no anything. I can open it back up, try again, and it will crash again the second type i hit backspace. Happens every single time, 100% repeatable. I have cleared cache, i have rebooted, doesn't mater. And it only happens on this particular website i use for my job. For a workaround, i can use any other browser, chrome, firefox, dolphin, etc, all work fine and don't have this problem. Very very strange.

Tonight, i will test this issue without the keyboard dock and see what happens.
[Transformer TF300T General] pjc21:
I also experienced this issue on stock 4.2.1 after pressing backspace twice, at the time I was just having a play around with the new update so have not looked into it yet. I also noticed two other issues with stock browser, every now and then when I open the browser and select a text box to type in the dock & on-screen keyboard will just not type - a close & reopen seems to fix this. 2nd issue sometimes after typing and then trying to select text with long press or shift key, I cannot select any text. :confused:

Battery issues after 4.2

Has anyone encountered battery drain issues post 4.2 update ?

I seem to have about a twice as fast drain as I had in the past.

Also, when you have the battery widget open now you can see that the dock is not charging the tablet as it always did in the past. It is almost pulling from both batteries at the same time now.

I pushed my update using Fastboot (expecting it to be fresh install) however after reboot it performed as upgrade.

Before wiping, formatting, and starting again I wanted to ask around if a known 4.2 issue ?

Thx, Sean
[Transformer TF300T General] litscript:
Unfortunately I don't have a way to right now but I'm looking on the threads I'm pretty sure it's already been posted along with the 4.2 keyboard
[Transformer TF300T General] grahamu:
On the contrary, my battery life has significantly improved (circa 50 % better) now than on any previous version. The behaviour re chaging from the dock has certainly changed but I do still see the dock to tab transfer happening but less often than before. It's more as if the tab is usually charged from the dock when asleep and only happens when awake at around 60% now rather than at about 75% as before.
