[Moto X Q&A] pluto01:
I noticed that Motorola has added VZW to the list of MOTO X carriers on their page "What devices are supported by the Bootloader Unlock program?"

[google: motorola unlock supported devices]

Has anyone else seen this? I don't see any news releases anywhere for it, and it definitely wasn't there previously.

From the chart, it doesn't appear to be specific to the Dev edition. Does this mean I/we could unlock the non-dev 'retail' version of the phone? Has anyone actually tried or used this method to unlock with or without success?

[Moto X Q&A] :
Im pretty sure that the OP is referring to that image. Notice it says: US / Sprint, USC, TMO, VZW are all unlockable.

Im also pretty sure that it is referring to the DE.
[Moto X Q&A] djp952:
Yeah that's for the Dev edition. You can try it on the regular one if you please (won't hurt anything) but when you enter the magic code acquired from the device you will be told its not valid for unlock.
[Moto X Q&A] infinit22:
Anyone tried it?
[Moto X Q&A] flashallthetime:
Not a Verizon owner but Rogers , I did unlock my boot loader, you got nothing to lose. you have to get a code from your phone in fastboot which you insert into Motorola's unlocking request page at which point either you get a code or it will say your boot loader is not unlockable

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
So, TF300T friends, I have decided to trade in my tf300t for a different device. I have my own reasons for coming to this decision, but I will not bash this great device. It has served me well for the time being, but now, with all the upgrades to Android, it is getting bogged down. I find myself waiting for its processor to finish working so my unresponsive screen begins to respond again.

Anyway, not going to rant. I intend to go for the new nexus 7. I have realized that my tablet cannot serve as a replacement for my laptop. Yes, I know that it is not intended to be a replacement, but now I truly understand the limitations of an Android device, keyboard or not. I still prefer to use my tablet for movies, reading my ebooks for school (laptop is too heavy), and entertainment.

Forgot to mention that my lag problems have multiplied tenfold after wiping misc to recover from brick a few months back.

Any thoughts?

ASUS TF300T - It's back from the brink of death....

Rerooted, Custom ROM, and Faster than EVER!!!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1337 H4X0R:
My thoughts...

The best part about Nexus devices is that you're pretty much guaranteed the latest and greatest android updates straight from the Google mothership. Thats one of the positives of moving to a nexus device. Furthermore, I believe there's great developer support in XDA for nexus devices since they are quite popular, so it will be easy to get great roms, help etc..

Personally, I would stick with my TF300T since it has a larger screen, keyboard dock and a great battery life (for me). I think that android as an OS, especially since its a mobile one, isn't that good for productivity. Yes, there are some great apps out there, but they will never beat the powerful capabilities of a proper Windows/Mac (Choose your side) computer running the Microsoft Office Suit.

I use my table for leisure, not for doing calculus through the wolfram alpha app, or writing a 1000 word essay; that's what my laptop is for. At least with a Nexus device, it could be used for these things if the android operating system improved dramatically from an update from Google, but thats probably not going to happen in the near future.

It all really depends on what you think you will gain and/or loose if you change devices. My best argument for the Nexus 7 is that it will get the latest version of Android pretty much as soon as it is released, as well as the large developer support from XDA since is quite popular. While the TF300T's biggest advantage is the keyboard dock, it makes typing a lot easier to type, and hence, better for productivity.

In the end, it depends on what you use the tablet for and what you want out of it that decides what tablet you should be using.

BTW, shouldn't this thread be in the general section?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
Well, technically....I did ask a question. :)

On another note...thank you for your reply. My biggest attraction to the new N7 is the processor and the price. *I* personally don't need a 10" screen. I do like the bigger screen, but it certainly cuts down my mobility a little. Even swiping with Swiftkey is a bit more cumbersome in portrait mode. I used my tab as a standalone for about 8 months before I purchased a keyboard attachment, so I have experienced the both of both worlds quite extensively. Now, I only remove my tab for games (which I do a lot less) and for reading longer documents & PDFs.

I feel that the Tegra 3 is the TF300T's biggest flaw. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's why I don't want to save money to get the OG N7.

But what do you know (from experience or friends experience) about different smaller tablets? I've done my research, but opinions on XDA are much more current.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1337 H4X0R:
I think the biggest flaw that the Nexus 7 (N7) has, which the TF300T pwns with, is storage, followed by the camera. And you could match the cpu clock speed...

1. The N7 not having expandable is a major downfall - just like iDevices. 32 GB isn't enough for me. Combine that with my parents who have accounts on it and it quickly adds up. Right now I'm jamming 1x 32 GB micro-sd card and 1x 32 GB sd-card, so a total of 64 GB on top of the 32 GB built in (96 GB in total). If I had the money to spend on expensive SD cards, I would be possiable to have a 256 GB SD card and 64 GB micro-SD card in there, adding up to 320GB on top of the built in storage. If *I* had the N7, it would not suit me I need a large amount of storage, but you're needs (and wants) may be different.

2. I'm pretty sure you can overclock the Tegra 3 to 1.5GHz, so it will match the N7's clock speed. Use at your own risk.

Will add my experience with tablets once I've thought about it for a while. One question, how is the Tegra 3 the TF300T major flaw?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
The Input/Output speeds of the Tegra 3 are terrible. To my knowledge, that's the cause of the abysmal lag while installing apps. I absolutely cannot afford to have Google Play to update apps automatically because of the way it slows down the tablet. If you read about the OG N7, you will see that the issues are similar (but not as bad, for some reason).

Once again, my tablet was bricked and restored, and my issues have gotten ten times worse. Maybe I should have replaced the motherboard, but I didn't have the money to dish out at the time. Maybe my tab was faulty. Who knows....

All I know is that my OG Evo 4g (1Ghz Single core Snapdragon) was more usable while installing apps than the TF300. I'm not trying to imply that my old phone was faster, but if the tab is writing files, or processes working hard in the background, the lag is beyond noticeable...it is intolerable.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1337 H4X0R:
In the meantime as I read up on what you replied with (BTW, very interesting)...

My friend(‘s family) has a generic 7” android tablet, as well as an iPad Mini, and a iPad, and a Win 8 Tablet and a laptop and this and that etc.. You get the point – he/his family is LOADED.

Anyway, we were once discussing about using tablets, (This is when I used my tablet at school for a while before I got a new laptop to handle the power tasks and improve productivity – I’m going off topic) and I remember him saying something like the iPad Mini (what a rip off – wait what?! :P) was better for playing games that involve movement (temple run) and portability since it’s easier to hold and smaller (obviously), but the proper iPad was better for everything else, e.g. Reading, watching a movie, browsing the web since it was bigger.

I do see where he is coming from. It is clear that bigger screens provide a better median of entertainment as it is easier on the eyes, and when having more than one person watching something, makes the viewing experience a lot better.

Though the downside to this is that less portable. It’s like comparing the Galaxy Mega to the original S mini. Many people don’t have hands big enough to hold with one hand, or pockets big enough or store the Mega, making it harder to hold and less portable, it contrast, the mini, is extremely portable, and it is easy to hold with one hand. It’s a good analogy.

Though, I have to stress this point, the answer to your question is dependent on what you want from a tablet, not what other people (like me) want.

****After doing some reading and testing****

Hmmm, that's weird, my tablet runs just fine and its on full stock everything. Just updated like 20 apps whilst playing temple run, beachbuggy blitz etc.. The game ran as smooth as always. (FYI, I once had to manually update Android via fastboot after the OTA update to .27.1 failed every time, That's when I lost my root access :()

If the tablet annoys you that much, then go ahead and get the N7 if you think it will be less annoying. You have my approval. :good:

Just realized that I forgot to point out in one of the previous post that the TF300T has a better camera than the N7, so that'll be useful to know if your into the taking photos with tablet movement.

---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 AM ----------

Just had to point out the irony.:eek:

And yet its laggy whilst installing apps? :laugh: This made me laugh. Sorry for my immaturity.:angel:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
Have I tried a custom rom? Have you seen my signature in the first post? Lol....just poking fun at you at this point.

I certainly have not been able to run a game while installing/updating apps. It is becoming quite clear that my tab was faulty from the start. However, I still want to get the new N7 (N7.2, I guess) for my own purposes. Yes, the camera is better, and it did influence my initial purchase of the TF300. But over the past 17 months, I haven't taken more than 50 pictures with my tab, if that much at all. The lack of flash greatly depreciates the value of the camera. I'm not one to use my tab to take pictures outside, either, since my phone has a much better camera to begin with.

I just wanted the peace of knowing that I'm making a good choice for myself. I have never filled up my 32gb of internal memory, so I don't truly need expandable storage. The only thing that I'll miss about expandable storage is the times when I need a few files from another device, and I can easily pop in my sd card from my phone.

Which reminds me, do you have issues with sending files to the TF300? On many roms, I can only send a few files for a day or two after the initial flash, but it blocks any files after that. I have researched this, and many many people have the same problem. Do you? It sounds like you got a good device out of the bunch...

I see that you updated your post. Yes, it's faster than before, but that doesn't mean that it's not very laggy. Besides, I was feeling like 100 bucks when I made that signature...time to change, I guess. :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1337 H4X0R:
The TF700T was actually the tablet I wanted since it had a faster processor and flash, but when I saw the $1200 NZD price tag it put me off. I bought the TF300T for $700 NZD instead. The draw backs of the tablet was worth the $500 saving. (1 NZ Dollars = 0.83 US Dollars, source: Google)

When you mean sending files to the tablet, do you mean via "adb push filename.extension", or copying and pasting using windows or both?

In the meantime, I'll start testing. I'll post the transfer time when it's done.

BTW, the reason this post is late is because today is the next day in my country. I got to have my sleep, you know.

I surely appreciate you apologizing for the late response. Shows character. (I'm a man of respect.)

Anyway, I'm back from vacation, and I am now responding to yours. I was referring to sendong files via Bluetooth. I even tried sending a file from my tf300 to my brother's tf300 through Bluetooth, and it failed as well.

When I asked him about the lag, he doesn't experience any of it. So I have determined that my tab was slightly faulty when I bought it, but I thought it was normal. At this point, the problem has progressed past my tolerance level. Thanks for your input, and for testing.

Okay. Thanks for the clarification :good:. I will try transferring a file via bluetooth sometime today (most likely in the evening, since that is when I usually do this kind of stuff), after I finish moving the majority of the boxes around here to my new house. That way I'll have enough time to set everything up and make sure I don't get anything wrong, as well as not worrying about the boxes. (The furnitures going tomorrow. I don't usually use blutooth that much, so this will be interesting. :confused:

Hi aarsyl,

I run my TF300T fully stock. I agree with you, sometimes it feels laggy, but hey, it's a budget tablet with high-end specs (well, mostly). Anyway, like you, I intend to grab a 32gb N7.2 sometime during the rest of the year, hoping to catch the release of the LTE (mobile) version, but not out of disappointment on my TF300T, just because is way more practical to carry and use while in the streets. :good:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AarSyl:
Ok, no problem. I'll be waiting.

I'm not exactly purchasing a new tab out of my disappointment. It is my disappointment that sparked my curiosity of a new device. Somewhere during my search, I realized that I do not need such a large device for my daily use. I use my tab is portrait quite a bit, so a slimmer device is preferable.

Who said that I needed your approval? Just kidding. :)

I am using the new tablet (16gb version, since 32gb was nowhere to be found), and the difference between the two is amazing! It just updated all of the apps, and the tab felt just as if o just picked it up from sitting idle. You notice no lag whatsoever...so far. I don't regret my decision one bit. Got a warranty on this one, though.

The new size does take some getting used to, but I'm adaptable. The transition shouldn't take very long for me.

Thanks again for your advice, testing, and very kind words.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sk8trix:
So I am using the LTE N7 and I keep noticing this issue. When I turn mobile data off or leave the device in airplane mode for too long and then turn mobile data back on or airplane mode off it takes a while for it to connect to LTE. No matter where I am while my galaxy s4 will connect to late right away when switched on from airplane mode.

It really only takes like a minute or two and I know its no big deal but is there a way to force the radio to connect faster or maybe a radio/modem to flash like you can with phones?
