Update.... I have contacted ASUS a total of 8 times since they have had the pad back on 2/21. SIX WEEKS! I have been 'escalated' each time... whatever the hell that means. No returned calls or emails. Today they could not find anyone who would know anything about my pad. I was told this was "

unacceptable

". I asked what that meant and was answered with silence. I was then told I would receive a call within 24 hrs.

If it is lost and they send me a brand new one, it is going on eBay and I will get a Samsung.

You have been warned.

[Transformer TF300T General] kitanderson:
So, after many phone calls and 'escalations', I just got my pad back. Was the problem solved? No.
[Transformer TF300T General] Over Boost:
I live in Italy.

I sent it to ASUS technical support my tablet still under warranty.

In the package I sent was:

The tablet unlocked

The charging cable is not working

The SSD with differenti custom Rom .......I forgot to take it off.

In the first e-mail I receive is written that the tablet can not be repaired because it is unlocked.

I respond by writing my disappointment, even on the official facebook page and also on the phone.

My disappointment, gentle, lay in the fact that I had not sent the tablet for a burnt CPU (which could be consistent with an overclocked kernel) but because the display was damaged at the origin.

After some days I get the tablet unlocked with an old stock ROM, repaired, with a new charging cable, with the SSD in a bag.

Education, properly speaking, sometimes you can achieve the solution.

Good luck to you all.

Support experience

Hello I also have a very similar problem (as explained here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2773429)but when I tried to send it in for service they said they would charge me money for my unlocked bootloader! Now I've put a doubt: perhaps I was wrong to tell them it was unlocked! Then about how long you waited before you solve them?
[Transformer TF300T General] Over Boost:
Hello, I have told them my point of view after they have written to me that they wanted the money to repair, both on facebook and on the phone.

Then I replied to the email rma, saying that I wanted the tablet back unrepaired.

I do not know why, maybe because I told him that I would not have bought Asus products, perhaps because I have been convincing, perhaps because I feel sorry ................... luckily came back repaired ............. something moved, they ignored my request to return the tablet is not repaired!!

Maybe I'm just lucky.

[Transformer TF300T General] Il Gerry:

All figured out ... I could not help but tell him that they are "unlocked":( ... but then so would be edged with the same (Transformer Service).

I break a lot of wasting time with the assistance I wrote email, facebook and on their website but want money and the fact that by the time everything works ok ... I know that I keep it like that.

Thank you Hello.
[HTC Butterfly S] Oadbylad:
Hi...Ive been on this board for some time and owned a couple of HTC phones

Subsequently ive been asked by a friend to repair a HTC Butterfly S now as far as i can ascertain its the dlxub1 ive never worked on one before

When i got it it was looping so i presumed it was the wrong rom :)

I managed to get the latest TWRP on it

Did a full wipe and tried to flash a rom that had been recommend to me :( this turned to to be wrong information

So now the phone as no OS at all

please see the attachment

Can someone please advise me or better still point me to a rom that i can flash

Thanking you in advance

[HTC Butterfly S] Oadbylad:
THANK YOU

Well at least for your clue

I had a look at your signature and as it said “HTC Butterfly X920D” and in my OP I did state HTC Butterfly dlxub1 I failed to see the prevalence ….but hey that’s why I asked for help

After reading your thread where it mentions “stock recovery” ??? I thought I all ready had a recovery image in TWRP but hey thats why I asked for help

it all seemed a bit “well I know it all and you ought to as well”

So I went down another (what to me seemed shorter)route

I downloaded this rom for your thread

DLXB1_U_JB_50_HTC_Asia_TW_2.28.709.3_V0 0.zip

Took a micro SD card out of my camera formatted it to Fat32 copied and pasted the rom in a card reader

Put it in the phone

Went to TWRP choose “install from external sd”

And all went well

Its working just fine

Just thought id post my results as they worked for me

And its good to share

THANK YOU AGAIN

And if you look at the last line in the OP

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LooneyRoon:
I'm tempted to upgrade my decrepit S2. Now with the S4 it seemed like the choice was like this

1) The Snapdragon based i9505 had better battery life, stability and LTE. It was supported well by Cyanogenmod

2) The Exynos based i9500 didn't have any of that stuff.

On the other hand the Exynos version was the only version on sale in Taiwan where I live. Now I could get an i9505 in the UK but the UK's a horrible place to buy phones or indeed anything - the prices are the highest in the world and Samsung products sold in Europe had funny SIM locking issues.

w w w.extremetech.com/electronics/167621-how-samsung-is-region-locking-the-galaxy-s4-and-note-3-and-what-it-means-for-you

NB links are nerfed to avoid the spam filter - s/w w w/www/g to make them work

So I decided to pass on the S4.

Is the same thing going to happen with the S5? I've found a list of model numbers

w w w.sammobile.com/2014/01/29/all-model-numbers-sm-g900-galaxy-s5-confirmed/

- SM-G9006V_CHN_CHN (China)

- SM-G9008V_CHN_ZM (China)

- SM-G9009D_CHN_CTC (China)

- SM-G900A_NA_ATT (AT&T)

- SM-G900D_JPN_DCM (Japan)

- SM-G900F_EUR_XX (Open Europe)

- SM-G900H_EUR_XX (Open Europe)

- SM-G900I_SEA_XSA (Asia)

- SM-G900J_JPN_KDI (Japan)

- SM-G900T_NA_TMB (T-Mobile)

- SM-G900V_NA_VZW (Verizon)

- SM-G900W8_NA_BMC (BMC)

I also know that the ones on sale in Taiwan are SM-G900I. I guess the question is whether they are Exynos or Snapdragon?

Of course it's also possible that Samsung have fixed the issues with the Exynos that caused Exynos based S4's to have worse battery life - rumoured to be that the Cache Coherent Interconnect bus didn't work and had to be disabled. Even so I think custom Roms are important and for the S2-S4 Snapdragon based devices have been better supported by them.

Questions

1) Am I right that Snapdragon based S5's are a better bet?

2) Is the SM-G900I Snapdragon or Exynos?

3) Does anyone know a shop near New York or Washington where I could pick up a SIM unlocked Snapdragon S5 for a reasonably price? I think I'll be on the East Coast of the US for a business trip in a month or so so I could get one then.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoaudio13:
I personally will choose Snap not Exynos as its always hot whike processing. This been proved from various Samsung models.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoneXDA:
The Exynos version is expected to pack the new 5422 SoC that supports HMP, so it should be able to run all 8 cores at once, in which case it will be definitely faster than the 801. Battery life is a big question, but the Exynos 6 Hexa in the Note 3 Neo ain't bad at all, so the new Octa at the minimum looks promising.

Are you seriously sure that perseus kernel dev would support s5???
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hung2900:
Not Galaxy S2, Note1 and S3 (with S3 the actual problem is the RAM, not the CPU). At that time, US versions use what people called Crapdragon.

Note 2 has Exynos version only, but it's very hard to get hot, highest stability result ever in any mobile phone, and the best battery life at its time.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noideaforusername:
I just hope this time they will bring LTE to the Exynos variant too. Otherwise i'll have to go with the snapdragon.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] system.img:
No LTE with Exynos this time also but interestingly there is 4K video capture.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoaudio13:
Yup!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellscythe:
Snapdragon version would be better IMO because it will have more dev support than the exynos version.

snadragon version also has LTE

And yes, the i9505 had better battery life than the i9500.

correct me if i am wrong, but the exynos octa used in the S4 isnt too different from the one used in the S5?

So if that were true, the snapdragon 801 should create an even bigger gap between the new exynos octa in terms of battery life.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon135:

Since it's in Hebrew (forgot changing the language to English before taking the screenshot) i'll translate:

4 hours and 51 minutes screen on time + 2 days 17 hours off charger.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] system.img:
The New Exynos is much better with HMP and a better GPU than the Exynos used in the S4.

It is similar to the one used in the Note 3. The Exynos version of the Note 3 has good battery life and is as good as the SD800 version.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellscythe:
Oh I see. But minus the LTE right?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoaudio13:
LTE sucks lots of battery life
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BoneXDA:
Not so much with Qualcomm's envelope tracking technology. LTE can be more efficient than old school 3G antennas, although much depends on reception (usually stronger for 3G).
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoaudio13:
Lacks of signals requires more search. Obviously it does suck battery like a vampire hehe

[Android] cheekyleebo:
Hi All,

I have purchased a 2 DIN Chinese Car Audio System from Chinavision which runs on two OS's. WinCE and Android 4.0.4. The WINCE Partition apparently runs hardware for Bluetooth Handsfree calling etc, USB port for external USB memory/storage (media), 1 x micro SD crd marked on the box as GPS (to store the GPS maps due to internal memory size limitations (4Gb standard with 8Gb upgrade by manufacturer), DTV, analogue radio, 1 x USB that when hubbed will connect to ext drives usb memory sticks while also being read and utilised for wifi dongle/3g dongle (controlled by android OS). The WinCE UI is uite poor with clumsy controls and limited user interface actions.

The Android OS is a little better however seems quite unstable. often hanging and freezing, loss of data from storage, app remnants following uninstalling apps. This OS controls, USB media access, 1 x SC card, 3G and Wifi (though not phone use on 3g as it always freezes and required a hard power down (disconnection of batters/power).

For one or two posts I can see there are others here that have such systems and serge/Gibroid is mentions however I don't seem to be able to get contact..

My questions/goals are to replace the systems android firmware with a smoother running, more stable build of ROM whilst keeping the original functionality (at least) and maybe (if possible) to add the functionality that is missing within the android OS.. such as Bluetooth access, phone access for calls etc..

Also, if at all possible, to upgrade/replace the WinCE OS with a more user friendly version, with a better UI, and the functionality of the original if not better. Basically opening this system to its full potential.

Now, I have to say I am a noob and am not knowledgeable nor experienced at this sort of thing (I have flashed a few phones etc) so would need to know

1) where to get the firmwares

2) where to get the required installation software

3) how to install via sd card input/external storage input as the unit seems not to be able to be connected to a PC

4) how to do a complete system image backup and how to restore should it all go horribly wrong

and

5) step by step instructions on how to do it.. or if a user out there is local and can do it I'd come to you and get it done that way.. (and compensate for your time and expertise)

The system/car unit is liveable as it is (just) but it has the hardware in it that means it is capable of so much more.

Anyone out there that can help??

Cheers

I also have a N708 based stereo

Hi,

My N708 also has the same issues, unfortunately I have not been able to use none of serg090909 images to improve my android system.

I have noticed that my system works better if I don't turn it off and on using the button on my stereo, I almost always reconnects fine if i just turn the car's key.

I have also discovered that the volume between the two systems is very different, if you play music, audio-books or use the Gps you will notice a huge difference in volume between the two systems... I'm using a volume booster to soften the difference.

I too am searching for something that can improve the WinCe side... it sucks... My bluetooth phone app is just useless! (I'm not able to synchronize any contacts).

You can go here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2607632) to find out how to make an image of your system (at least of its android side).

Cheers

[Android] naivri:
Hi

I have the same system.

I am currently talking with the seller to try and sort the unfortunate bug I keep getting. The android part stops accepting touch screen input. Happens when I initially boot the system by switching the car on and will only clear if I power it down for 25 seconds then power up. The android side then reboots.

You can reinstall-initialize the android side by removing your key, holding the reset button down, inserting key and starting car while holding down the reset button, hold for 10 seconds, then release and turn on the stereo. When you go into the GPS/android side after that, you will be asked to calibrate the screen again and the android startup wizard begins.

I managed to get the Gibroid system running, so ask me any questions you have about doing that. It gives a much nicer, larger storage space android section, but I still suffer from the android side not accepting screen input when i start the car 50% of the time.

I agree the bluetooth functionality in the WINCE part is borderline criminal with no sorting of phone book. Would love to be able to tinker with it.

Gibroid install help

Hi,

You say you were able to get the gibroid working on your system can you explain to me how and what you did? I use all the tools that are recommended apart from thelivesuit, It simply doesn't accept any of the gibroid img files available here and on 4PDA that I was able to find. The touch screen on my unit just binks (black on black). I also have tried maybe 5 different sd cards.

Thanks in advance for your help.

P.S. At the moment my system doesn't even work it just gets stuck on the android (word) screen.

Tracking status will tell you that it will ship tomorrow and arrive the next business day and so on until April 3rd rolls out. I just got off the phone with a rep and he told me (and other xda users apparently) that the phone will ship no earlier than the 3rd of April. I placed my order for the M8 Dev on the second call block since the first one was apparently sold out right after the M8's official announcement and the website temporarily disabled purchases of the phone. So who knows? lol Some people maybe get the phone earlier. As for me? I'm doing some homework on what case and glass screen to buy. The Dot View case looks neat but I wish it had a clear back cover.

[One (M8) General] daorderdillon:
Are u using a US card and a US address and USA shipping address and US ip address
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Yep. I'm on hold with them (LetsTalk) right now. Apparently it was because they'd had an order at the same address with a different card (my M7 order last year), and it was marking as fraudulent in their system. I just had to go through a series of security questions from my bank, and I'm in the process of getting it resolved. You may be in the same seat with the order from a different card, and it was on my 3rd representative that they actually noticed this and helped me. It may be trouble, but hopefully it all works out.

EDIT: Just got it all sorted out. Apparently, every order through LetsTalk that is for a phone has to be called in and verified. Glad it's finally over!

[One (M8) General] darkodin14:
I had the same experience. After I ordered the dev edition at 1pm before it was taken down, My order was cancelled. I had to call back in to verify my order. They did a security check by asking me security questions, much like those from a credit report. And after that it was verified and confirmed. I guess they are just covering their bases but still I wish that they would of called me instead of canceling the order initially and me having to call back.
[One (M8) General] daorderdillon:
Wa questions exactly do they ask
[One (M8) General] darkodin14:
For me basic questions to verify identity.. In what county do you live, what address have you been associated with in the past 5 years, Questions like if you apply for credit they would ask based on the info they can get from your credit report but in this case your bank provides them.
[One (M8) General] daorderdillon:
Told me they don't accept international credit cards
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Yep. Same things for me. The (actually quite helpful) rep told me that this was standard procedure with all phone purchases from HTC for security and fraud prevention (especially during periods with promotions like the free shipping one now).
