Is this game screwed up for anyone else? I thought unchecking the compatibility mode in the spare parts app would fix it, but it didnt...
Yeah, it's still messed up on mine too

Ok guys, here's a odd one for ya...my Vibrant has been working fine until this morning. All I did was kill the battery completely and charge it up last night cause I wanted to condition it and now my vibrate has just stopped. I get a short little vibrate like it would when you touch the soft keys but nothing else. I'm running stock 2.2 rooted and with the Bali kernel...was working great.
Any ideas? I have uninstalled all sound apps that I've installed and still nothing...
Didn't want to do it but did a hard reset and it fixed it, kinda odd...
That happened to me as well right out of the blue. I also had to do a hard reset from within CWM and that cleared it right up

This happened to me a while back and I have just been living with it. Haptic feedback stopped as well. The hard reset you are referring to, does this wipe all your data?
Yep wipes all your data on the phone, I just ran MyBackup and backed up everything..wiped and then restored...
I was experiencing this, tried a hard reset and it did not work. My phone has not vibrated under any circumstance for about 8 months or so now, even after trying every software-based fix I could find by googling. I'm pretty sure the motor is just burnt out. Anyone else experienced this, or have ideas for options?
Has anyone else experienced this? My friend was checking out the phone and played with the camera settings for a bit (i.e. burst, panoramic, etc). When it gave it back to me, it was fairly warm but I figured that it's normal. However, after being in my pocket for a couple minutes it felt abnormally hot. Took it out and killed all apps via the task manager and it cool off pretty fast. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?
I had a similar situation, but dont know if this is what happend to you.
I also had a friend playing with the phone taking pictures and when he gave it back, it was hot. I think what was happening is his house has bad Sprint service and I have the pics upload to G+ and because the service was bad, it was having trouble uploading them. That was my guess anyway, but maybe im wrong.
My NT has been working flawlessly since I first got it last November. Installed Nook & Zergy, OTA blockers and I was off. No CM9 or anything like that cuz all I needed was a working tablet that I could access Google Market on.
Tonight I pick up my tablet and notice it's been turned off. I turn it on and now it's stuck in a bootloop. It tries to turn on, then shuts off, then back on, off, etc. I have zero idea what has changed but for whatever reason the damn thing has decided it's not gonna boot up.
Anyone ever experienced this? Or have any idea how to correct it? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
I should probably also point out at this time that none of the methods of restoring the device to factory settings seem to be working. Help?
Um never mind.
I had to replace the entire nook so I guess it's moot now.
Thanks anyhow though folks.
Just out of curiosity, was it a hardware failure then?
I'm wondering the same thing. My nook has had similar symptoms, It constantly tries to boot and fails when I have the usb cord plugged in. One time after I unplugged it, it automatically cleared data and restored factory settings which did not fix it anyway. Now it just flashes the battery too low screen constantly when plugged in.
The people at B&N were fairly stumped and after a few minutes of examination, they just agreed to swap it out for a new (or rather refurbished) model. So I'm guessing it was a hardware failure, yeah. Just very odd that it would happen like that all of a sudden, but then I guess there's no telling when stuff is just gonna fail.
hsanafad, you might wanna try calling nook customer service and asking for help. When they fail to fix the problem (and they probably will if it's the same problem I had) then they'll just set up a replacement through the mail or with your local store. Your nook should still be under warranty since you've had it less than a year (if it's a tablet and not a color) so probably they'll swap it out with no real issue. Just a thought.
I finally got around to buying a dock/keyboard and got mine today but I'm seeing some really strange things when using it.
I'm wondering if anybody has a clue what is happening to me.
Sometimes I connect the dock and they keyboard/mouse works perfectly. Other times, only the keyboard works. Sometimes, the mouse begins working after some time (like 30s); sometimes it doesn't work at all. Sometimes I connect the dock and neither the keyboard nor the mouse works.
I thought it may be a short in the connector, but I've seen things that suggest this is not the case. For example, I can press the lock key on the keyboard to lock the tablet, and then when I unlock the keyboard no longer works and its battery shows as empty. Other times, I can lock/unlock it with no problem at all.
I've tried wiggling the dock and stressing it in all directions to see if I can cause it to malfunction but once it works, it works forever until I either remove the dock or lock the tablet.
I normally use SwiftKey Tablet but switched to the asus keyboard hoping it would help, of course it didn't.
So are there any thoughts? wtf is going on with my brand new keyboard?
Also, fwiw, I know there is a mouse on/off key. That is not my problem.
Update: I cleared data on ASUS keyboard and it seems to have solved the problem. Not 100% sure yet but I haven't had any issues since.
I have the same issues. A reboot solves the problem. Factory reset solves the problem. Connecting the dock like 10 times solves the problem.
BUT.....
after a night of standby, the problems re-appear.
I've sent in my prime for RMA for this issues 2 times. 1st time they didn't do anything. Only re-connect some cable that apparently come loose on its own (****ty build quality)
I hope they fix is this time...
Unfortunately, clearing data on asus keyboard was an illusory solution. The problem came back.
I also noticed another issue. Sometimes when the keyboard seems to be functioning properly, it isn't actually charging the tablet. Talk about a weird issue. I noticed that when I'm having issues though, I can force kill the asus keyboard and redock and it works again until the tablet sleeps.
I did a factory reset on the thing, hoping it would help. Of course it didn't. To throw salt in the wounds, I didn't realize my app backup transfer failed so I lost everything. fml.
So anyway, the damn thing works probably 1/15 tries. It's so bad I packed the thing back up in the box and am considering returning it. The keyboards are so hard to find though I am not sure if I can get another.
Please let me know when you get it back from RMA. If they fix it for you I will send mine in.

umm...but the keyboard?
Also, my son dropped my prime and cracked the screen so I have to send it in for repair. I'm wondering if I should tell them about the keyboard issue while I'm at it.
You had the mobo on the tab replaced, right? Not the PCB in the keyboard?

Keyboard is working fine now.
The RMA only sais that they replaced the motherboard, not the keyboard pcb.
Wifi is working again, had to reset the router (even though all other devices were working fine).
Noticed a new LCD mura though.. so I'm sending it back again and claim my money back.
I just picked up a Prime for $50. The guy said "sometimes it reboots itself". I knew I had heard of it before so $50 didn't bother me. I picked it up and when I got home I noticed it was bent. I Thought maybe that was causing something to short so I opened it up and straightened it (mostly as best I could) and it seemed to boot faster but still reboots randomly but only if it's being used. Never reboots while sleeping. Sometimes it hangs and I have to force it, other times it has no WiFi on the reboot and I have to reboot or again. I tried the double factory reset thing I read somewhere but it did a random reboot during initial setup with no apps on it not even connected to WiFi yet. Did I get a bad one? Any other way to fix it? No dock, no micro SD card in it, says there are no updates for it. It sat perfectly fine for 6 hours with no reboots without being used and as soon as I opened the play store it rebooted. Happens with our without being held so I'm fairly certain it isn't a short. Everything looked fine inside when I had it open. Help?

Go to settings and post the device info and kernel info for the tablet please (screenshot the whole screen will probably be easier).
It might be running a custom kernel and the voltages might be too low for your specific machine.
Tablet isn't really reliable enough to be used that long so I just took a picture. Sorry it's sideways, we all know how iPhones work lol.

That is the last official firmware and kernel that Asus released for the TF201 so it is not a custom kernel causing it.
At this point it might be worth you trying to flash a custom rom to see if it makes it any better because you don't really have anything to lose.
Another option is to sell it on ebay for the screen. You will more than likely get your money back off someone who just needs that part.
You thinking it's more software related? Would it make it through the flashing process without bricking?
It has to be software related I think. I was just able to run a full antutu benchmark with no reboots. There may be a more strenuous hardware test but I don't know what it is. I just figured I'd try to make it so the hardest thing I could think of and see how it went. I did leave it on a charger for about 20 hours or so. Wondering if maybe the battery could be an issue?
Edit: Open the Play Store, hit update all, accept all permissions, then it reboots. Seems most common when using Play Store or YouTube.
If it makes any difference if I turn in the tablets "performance mode" it reboots WAY less often. Could the battery be too weak? Idk Jay spitballing here.
