    Stuck on EeePad boot screen after JB update and CANNOT shut off tablet

    Attempted the JB update, seemed to install (I also did it on my wife's) but on mine it must have failed and failed hard as now I am infinitely stuck on the "Asus Eee Pad" boot screen and if you try to shut it off it just reboots... endless loop. So, there is no way to even shut it down. It just...

    Audio applications: Earphones connected to the device... anoying

    So, when you plug in earphones, you get this shitty and annoying notification in the pull down slider "Audio applications: Earphones connected to the device" and it lists like the same 5 apps... but does NOT list Google Play Music?? Is there a way to kill this whole function off? Is there a...

    It's started - TuneIn Radio pushing ads to your notification bar in a PAID app!

    I was appalled and bummed to wake up today to see my phone and tablet both had ads in the notification bar! The new bread of ad pushing has begun. I had read about the potential, but never seen it happen.. until now. TuneIn Radio is pushing ads - in their pro paid app mind you - to the...

    Root Anyone know a stand alone native wifi tether app I can flash?

    I have a stable ROM and kernel I do not want to change and flash all new ROMs and kernels. But, with my Asus Prime tablet we lost ad hoc networks under ICS. There is a huge thread going on XDA about it. The Moto droid uses ad hoc for tethering. So, to get ad hoc tether working under ICS on...

    Help Lost tether under ICS, ICS no like ad hoc networks now

    Last night and for last 2 weeks I have been using Wireless Tether 2.0.7 to tether my Prime to my OG rooted Droid. Now, after ICS today, no joy. I have tried every fix I can think of. I have tried 4 tether apps. Nothing. It was fine under HC and broke under ICS. It seems now that under ICS...

    Wifi might not be the issue.. GPS might be the issue

    Interesting thread at XDA of people reporting real GPS issues.. Once guy even said, he was told shockingly "Lol. I just called Asus csr. They told me that prime Gps does not work without a working wifi. I made the csr ask tech again and she said yes the prime needs wifi connection for gps to...

    Suggest a 32gb class 10 micro SD card you have experience with please

    Not what you read, not what you heard, but have you actually used a 32gb class 10 micro SD card and can suggest one for this tablet? Many of us bought or will be buying the 32gb and expanding it with a card, and to get the best experience and least bottle neck on speed and card access (R/W), it...

    "Adobe will release one more version of the Flash Player for mobile browsing, which will provide support for Android 4.0, and one more release of the Flash Linux Porting Kit - both expected to be released before the end of this year. After that time, Adobe will continue to provide critical bug...

    Anyone else changing their mind about buying?

    The delays and some of the UK reviews starting to come out and the final Verizon LTE specs have given me enough time to reconsider buying the Nexus. Really, other than shipping with ICS and an NFC chip, this phone is really no better than anything else. It is no thinner, not faster, no more...

    I don't like being forced into having a Google search at the top of my screen

    My understanding is that that Google search bar at the top of every home screen is not a widget, but in fact a part of the ICS OS that places it there and it cannot be removed. I think, if it is true and it looks to be from videos and stuff I have read, is pretty lame to force takeover...

    Port locations suck in IMHO

    Audio jack and micro usb on the bottom? That blows IMHO. I use a stand on my desk to hold my phone in front of me while I work. I can press buttons, charge, access it fast/easy. On my OG Droid, top audio jack and side mount micro usb allow me to sit the phone on a stand and charge it and plug in...

    transfer a preferred version of an app from phone to phone?

    What would be the best way to transfer some apps from my phone to the Nexus that I would prefer to not download from the market since later versions suck. For example, Weatherbug has reportedly gotten much worse and so I never upgraded. Thus, I want to move the version I have from my phone to...

    Some of you may know about Sphero and some may not... but it is what looks to be a damn cool "toy". I got on the pre-order list early in the year and they opened up pre-order today and I placed my order. Anyone else get in on it? Check the vids on their site, it is a pretty cool little device.

    NFC or not? If so, it could use new "Beam" technology

    So one of the cool, but nearly worthless new features of ICS - which this tablet will have at shipping time ASUS claims - is the new "Beam" function where you can send certain kinds of data (music, photos, links, GPS data, etc) between 2 ICS phones with NFC chips. Well, we know the coming...

    The ASUS Prime is official, why no sub forum?

    The XOOM and the XOOM 2 both have stand alone forums. Well, we know the ASUS Transformer Prime - some call it the Transformer 2 - is official so why not make the ASUS Prime have it's own section so we can get on with talking about it and not mix it in with the older Transformer content?
