[Nexus 7 (2013) General] berardi:
Yeah, I agree with you... this is really absurd. Now we have people trying to create their own grounding solutions. I used to love Asus but my most recent laptop is Samsung and I am very happy.

I love Android, I love the Nexus ( I have an original one as well as new one but it doesn't work). I love Google. But this experience (I have exchanged my Nexus 5 times so far and still do not have a good unit) has left me thinking of giving Apple another try. They have had issues in the past with quality control like all other companies, but not nearly on this scale. I cannot believe I exchanged my device 5 times and still it doesn't work. I am not content to wait for Google to come out with a "Fix". In the meanwhile, 14 day return policy will expire. No thanks... I will keep exchanging until working unit or I will give up, keep my original Nexus and wait for iPad Mini Retina. :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] macaumen:
I purchased several ASUS products and I am satisfied with most of them. I forgot what's the year I bought them though.

1. ASUS EeePC 1000HE

Still remember the netbook age? Over 10 hours of battery life and the portability are very impressive. Bought one for school when I was still in college so that I can play around online when having boring lectures. No issue with this netbook at all.

2. ASUS EeePC 1005HA

Basically I sold my 1000HE for this one becuase of the slick design. I love it so much. Still rocking 9 hours of battery life. No issue at all with this one too.

3. ASUS Maximus III Gene

Have been using this MB for more than 3 years. It's still rocking today. Paired with i7-870 and GTX460. No complaints.

4. ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity TF700T (with Keyboard Dock)

This is the one I had most issues with ASUS products. Having the famous I/O issue and screen lift up issue. The I/O issue issue is driving me nuts. I ended up selling the whole set.

5. ASUS VivoBook X202E

I sold my 1005HA recently and bought this one. Netbook is too slow for me now. So far the only issue is that the touch pad has a little bump on it. Quality control of ASUS is not doing a good job. Otherwise, no complaints for this device so far.

6. Nexus 7 (2013) 32GB

One of the most popular tablets now. I only encountered the touch issue once. Light bleed is not serious and it doesn't bother me at all. I can live with that. I had a Samsung tablet before and it has light bleed also. I believe this is a common problem for LCD now. I haven't met any other problem till now. No random reboot, no dead pixels, wireless charging working (with Samsung wireless charging pad), etc. I am very satisfied with it.

I love my asus stuff!

I have a LOT of Asus prodcuts. Probably more than the average user of this board

I started with 2 x83VB-X2s refurbed from tiger direct. They are both still running strong with little issues other than they need new batteries. They've been around for close to 7 years now. Discreet Nvidia, they are AWESOME.

ulFt20 - for my employer - worked great as a travel beast for 3 years until upgrade required. First gen i3, everything still works.

I bought a tf201 when the first came out. Issues out the wazuuuu. GPS was ****, wifi is not bad, screen showed some bleed, and I/O issues.

That being said, it still works, my dad dented the bezel of the tablet itself with a case of beer, and everything still works. Even bought the keyboard, it still works.

I bought an N53SV. Core i7, 6gb, nvidia 540M. Typing on it now. HEAVY, but I love it. Great for work, and some games, although not mega-portable.

Employer upgraded to the zenbook prime, and aside from an issue with the charger, which asus promptly replaced for us 3 times without payment on our end, it has been a dream, and is absolutely gorgeous!

COUNTLESS n66/AC66 routers. I hand these out as suggestions for clients for their unreal feature set, unbeatable speed, and ability to use custom firmware.

I build my recent gaming rig on an asus p8z77-i itx board, its unreal!

I have an M2N-sli deluxe running an old AMD X2 6000+ and it still runs like day one.

Buying into the first production run of products is ALWAYS risky. Remember Apple's iphone 4 bumper hand out deal. I have the nexus 7 2013, its my first nexus device (I run an S3 for a phone), and I've loved EVERY minute of owning it, even when I screw up a flash, I still love how easy it is to fix this thing.

Happy Owner here, of a nexus 7, and ALL things asus for the most part :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stanglifemike:
Nothing but good things to say about Asus! By far my favorite tablet manufacturer! Hoping the rumors about the manufacturing the next N10 are true. If the N10 is made by Asus, then I'll own one of those too!

Asus Prime (TF201) 10.1" Tablet - still works great, gave it to my older sister Mothers Day, she uses it daily

Asus Infinity (TF700) 10.1" Tablet - still works great, still use it daily

Asus N7 FHD 7" Tablet - still works great, still use it daily

Asus RT-N66R wireless router - still works great, still use it daily

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stefankorun:
You get one of the best 7" tablets around for 230$ and there is almost no delay in shipping and availability, of course that quality control can be on a very high level. Plus, most of the issues can be caused by kernel errors and not hardware.

I am at an hardware store internship and ASUS laptops are actually considered to be the most enduring ones.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] RedDevils88:
I'm not sure what's going on with the graph from my battery usage page. For some reasons, it would jump to 100% which is impossible. Anyone of you has seen something like this before?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] rezaaz:
I see those spikes on my Nexus 7 2013. And I get a terrible battery as well. My tablet loses about %30 of its battery charge during night when it is in sleep mode. Does anybody experience the same issue? Is there a way to fix this?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] con100:
You must have an app installed that's causing that much drop off. Mine drops off like 2%.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] asp2010:
I have seen spike on mine, too, but not up to 100%, only 1-2% more than its actual level. I thought it's because it was the first charge cycle and the reading weren't yet calibrated. I'll see if they go away after a few more cycles.

I don't have battery drain, as well, I lose 2-3% overnight with wifi and sync still on.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] rezaaz:
Oh. Bummer. Do you know how I can find which application that is?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] con100:
You can try an app called BetterBatteryStats it gives you a more detailed look at what's using your battery.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pablobhz:
Hello my friends.

I got a Galaxy Note II here - but my sister decided to play with it and now its locked on the 'too many wrong patterns screen'.

To make things even worst i haven't associated it with a google account (i recently bought it from a friend of mine).

When i try to hard-reset it the phone goes to the famous android logo with red exclamation - i think he rooted the phone and didn't told me.

Anyway when i get on this screen if i press the 'back' key on the phone i can access the 'Android System Recovery' - but i can't select any option.

I know i should use vol up/down to scrool betweeen options and power to select - but i press power and nothing happens.

Tried also pressing the menu button - nothing happened also.

Another problem is, for some reason i don't know the phone won't connect to my computer - only in charge mode.

Tried tons of things lots of times but it isn't showing up no matter what i do.

I tried also to call me from another phone and get in any menu - but when i do that i can only select normal options (send an sms, refuse call, accept).

I would like to hear suggestions from you guys since i've ran out of resources - i don't know what else i can do in order to recover the phone.

Thanks in advance

additional note: i just know its model is i9220+

It accepts WCDMA and a GSM SIM.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dead soul:
if you don't have any important stuff on the phone...why don't you just flash it with stock firmware using Odin?? in download mode?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pablobhz:
This is what i want.

But my computer do not detect the phone so i can't go into download mode.

I don't have anything important there - not worried about what is on its memory.

like i said when i plug the phone into the computer it only starts charging and nothing more.

is there 'any trick' i can try heh :) ?

ps: i installed kies, uinstalled, installed samsung usb drivers, installed, etc...well what i mean is that i tried most of those tricks to get the phone detected but no success - maybe flashing directly from my SD ?

also - i 'suspect' my phone is that n7100 . since i don't have its manual and can't access its menu either i just suspect because its from brazil and those n7100 models are like 'international'.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dead soul:
ok from how you are explaining stuff I'm not sure if you understand the flashing procedure thoroughly and risk involved

1. flashing can be risky

2. you need to download Odin example version 1.8

3. when your phone just powers on you need to know the EXACT model number example N7105 or N7100 or any other version..this is very important as if you flash a wrong firmware you could destroy your phone completely

4. find a stock ROM for your phone on xda or at samfirmware.com

5. install Samsung drivers or install Samsung kies but while Odin is on Samsung kies services must be closed

6. keep your phone in download mode by switching off your phone then HOLD CENTER/HOME BUTTON + VOLUME DOWN + POWER BUTTON

7. your phone may warn you and I believe may ask you to press volume up button to continue

8. then you are now in download mode.

9.open Odin

10. connect your phone to your pc via USB cable..give it time to register/install itself as a new hardware..etc etc as you may see new hardware detected pop up if running on Windows

10. a yellow COM port will appear on Odin showing the phone is connected

11. place the stock ROM file on the PDA section UNTICK REPARTITION , TICK REBOOT

12. this should flash your phone....however my procedure is a vague way of how to go about it... you may need to see a detailed step by step procedure on XDA if you are new to this.

I take no responsibility for any damages...I hope you almost everything we do here on XDA had risks involved

or the safer option take to a Samsung repair center!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android The Greek:
To get into download mode all you need to do is turn of the phone and hold power home volume down until you see the warning sign.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Put device on download mod and tell us what information it displays

You need not to connect device with PC to get downbload mode. Do this.

Vol Down + Home + Power

then vol up in warning screen to finally get download mod.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pablobhz:
Okay

when i put the device into download mode (vol down + home + power) - it goes to a 'factory mode'

then options i have here are:

Full Test

Item Test

Test Report

Clear eMMC

Version

Reboot

And i can't choose any of 'em , no matter what i press.

Same happens when i go into recovery mode.

For getting into recovery o mode i i press the following combination: vol up + home + power

Then i get the android logo when a red exclamation - but when i press the 'back' button i can get into the "Android System Recovery <3e>", where i have the following options:

Reboot System Now

apply update from sdcard

apply update from cache

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache partition

backup user data

restore user data

and same thing - i can't select any of 'em - no matter what button combination i press.

I tried plugging the phone into three computers none of 'em detected the phone.

Sometimes after many power on/off the computer detects it but instantly loses also - its something very quickly.

I can't get into any of the menus of the phone since i'm stuck in the 'too many wrong patterns' screen and i have no associated google account.

Also when i plug the phone in the pattern screen the only thing it says its about charging - nothing about plug in usb or anything like that.

I'm a bit used with flashing (did it a lot on my RAZR XT910) and i know all risks.

I've also found out my note ii is model GT-N7100 (this is the one sold in brazil) - i couldn't get its manual but my bet is going to be this - samsung service center won't repair the phone without the fiscal coupon .

I'll try more and keep this post update - but if anyone got an hint about this just tell me

Thanks in advance

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Your device seems to be clone one and not original N7100.

Have you purchased from authorized centre?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muppetmania:
Your device is not a Samsung phone, you said as much in your first post.

Asking us to help is pointless, you need to talk to other clone owners and see what they have done.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pablobhz:
Oh okay.

I tought it also but wasn't sure.

I'm really sorry for taking your time

It was looking like Samsung because of its back

There's an stick with:

MODEL: i9220+

FCC ID: A3L SHI9220+

For information call: 1 888 987 4357

Bluetooth

CE01688

IMEI

and Made in Korea

There are also entries to:

WCDMA SIM

GSM SIM

and SD Card

But when i power it on there's nothing related to Samsung in fact - i never get anything related to Samsung.

Only android logo like a rocket.

It seems to be running an android 4.1 because of the interface

Anyway i'll see what i can do and thanks in advance for all the help

Again, sorry for taking your time.

Got one of these and after putting some magnets in it to hold the phone in place and using some 2 sided tape to hold it to my desk its great. Only beef if that it does not use a normal USB cable but I swapped out the plugs so I can use my micro USB cable. But if you use this you will need to keep the stock ac adapter as it is 12 volts and remember not to use that to charge up your phone wired.

Great charger and the sweet sport for the DNA on it is huge.

Ditto. My cat chewed my Nokia cable which is pretty much impossible to replace on it's own (I've tried contacting Nokia a few times and they've been unhelpful) so my charger is useless. If only this thing used a USB cable...
[HTC Droid DNA] bignazpwns:
Basicly you just order the female ends online. Check the pin out. Pin 1 is power. Pin 4 is ground. Just desolder the stock jack solder the new micro USB in. Epoxy it down to hold it the trim the case to fit the new plug. I'll get some pics and part numbers and make a guide and post it when I get a chance.

In order to get an accurate response, you'd need to post more screenshots from BBS - things like wakelocks, kernel wakelocks and app activity will help greatly to diagnose your phones battery consumption.

By the looks of the 1 screenshot that you have provided, I can only assume that you are a pretty heavy user...as the device did not have much deep sleep time (only 25%) and the battery per hour rate is 7.2% .

BBS Review

Here is my dump. How is my usage? Is 12.5 hrs till 4 percent good or bad? Note that the awake time is higher because I was listening to music with the screen off. Don't refer me to the BBS thread because my idle battery life is great. Thanks again!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] AJ Newkirk:
You need to actually read the BBS thread..

If your idle battery life is "great" then it boils down to how you are using your phone. Are you letting it sleep or are you using it a lot?

Getting rid of GoChat will improve your battery life as it is creating a wakelock.

You will gain still more battery life by going into Settings->Sound and unchecking all the boxes towards the bottom. This is yet another known issue..

Looks like you are using it a lot, and getting the battery life associated with a heavy user.

Do you have a more specific question? I'm not sure what you are looking for here really. The main thing you need to do is research this stuff so that you are familiar with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] azeem40:
I read the BBS thread and have already posted an idle log there. I only posted a log instead of a screenshot cuz I was lazy and didn't feel like taking 5 screenshots. The time that the wakelock was on was the amount of time I used GoChat, meaning the screen was on as long as I was using it. I just wanted a yay or nay of my battery life. I usually play videos from youtube for a solid hour, browse the web intensively, take a couple of photos, use 3g, and send some texts, if that helps in putting a figure on my battery usage from the screen on time vs the deep sleep time, so thanks for answering my question.
