News to me. I didn't know the Prime had a vibrator.
No seriously . I know the TF101 doesn't have it but wow! Every day I learn something new about the Prime.
I really want to say, "I think that's your mom."

It definitely has a vibrator... in fact, I forgot the first one didn't! However, mine makes a sound for a half-second when the vibrator runs up... once it's on, no problem... definitely a defect, but there's no way in hell I'm sending it in any time soon, haha

are you referring to the haptic response? I think it's normal, it's an feedback that tells you you've performed certain task, such as turning on the device. I don't think it's an defect.

Look under settings -> Sounds
You can probably turn off haptic feedback, or at least turn down the intensity.
Yeah yeah to the noise....where'd you get the tf201!?!?

The sound you hear is the guy behind grunting and the faint grinding sound...that's for not using lube. LMAO
Man I had to say it. You put yourself in a "Prime" position here.
from the thread title alone,
this could find itself being the XDA thread with the most views in a few weeks.
Har har har, guise.... (Ok, so I was kinda expecting that reaction...)
The noise definitely is some sort of defect in my unit. I bought it through Amazon, and they have that awesome Advanced Replacement program, it just make take a while to get one to me (est. Jan 24 - Feb 7)
Just to add on, my TF201 hasn't seem to come across this issue.
Maybe it's just your unit. :|

I'm not sure about your problem (probably just a case of the haptic feedback being a little strong), but your sig makes me jealous. I probably won't be getting my Prime until February.

That's definitely my guess... It's not crippling, but I don't feel bad at all about swapping it out.
I created a Vocaroo example... You can barely tell what the hell I'm saying, but the vibrate issue is pretty clear.
http://vocaroo.com/?media=vxpkSyWYSkavstwQu
The first buzz is the vibrate fully on (sounds normal once it's going). The next is the vibrate turning on and off (you can hear the grinding every time it kicks on). At the end is when it's on almost full power, and you can hear it kind of struggle.
yeah. does not help your a bit close to the mic. but yeah that does not sound right.

It's something at the hardware level (it happens regardless of haptic feedback) :/
I *may* end up with two Primes if J&R comes through, so I may be a mensch and turn it around at cost to someone at XDA, or it may go on Craigslist for profit... Depends on my mood that day
Most of my devices were free upgrades from a previous device, or I made enough money selling the previous one to cover the new one... I'm a cheap bastard, but if I can make money off CL, I'm on it

non-sense that light is 100% useful for me, when it's green I know it's charged. Regardless of powering it on to see if it's between 95-100%.
shame on you for seeing it as worthless.
i don't think it's useless but i think it's impractical in the postion it's in, i think it should be on the front of the device so i can see it without having to pick it up and moving it also it could be used for email notifications.
I for one appreciate the FYI. I got my prime a week ago and had no idea this light was here! I agree its awkward placement, but its still a nice touch.

Nah, but I remember 2 weeks ago when everyone posted their first thought about something, when BestBuy was starting to get Primes. A bunch of those first thoughts were really special, you were there just like me being a firebug
I started to watch a video on my note and I've also noticed it also does this on the browser sometimes. The screen is flickering and creates lines. It only does it on one side of the screen. You think I should exchange it out before the 30 days?

Exchanging it will not fix it. I am actually shocked more have not reported seeing this. Both the skyrocket and note have the issue.
Videos you take with the phone will do it as well.
No tweaking or exchanging will fix this. I have even tried a slew of video apps...they all do it so far

These are totally 2 different category of devices.
U cannot buy one for the other.
I dont want to start an apple android war but
1. ipad is not pocketable.
2. No phone fn
3. Pen stylus no possible ( u can use a capacitive stylus)
If apple came out with a 5 inch phone , i would galdly buy it.
jail broken ios can be customized very much.
Edit : back to topic.
If u could post a video we could be of more help
I have watched hours of netflix on my note and have had no such problem at all with it.

Since when does calling 911 start a 5 minute data shutdown? This a new ics feature? I had to call in a prius playing chicken with my tractor trailer on interstate. After the call I get notification saying data is off with a timer in emergency mode. I use 911 often as I'm always calling in drunks, wrecks, fires etc. Never seen this before on android

and calling in drunk drivers makes sense, even if you suspect it. chances are, whoevers stupid enough to drink and drive deserves what they get, but you know what, i'm feeling nice lately, so i'd rather report them to save their idiotic lives.
I call alot of things in hell I pay a 911 fee we all do. I'm no highway angel. But if I potentially save life or a family its well worth it. And if your stranded in a storm and your in a ditch with no phone wouldn't you want someone to call in help?
Better yet heaven forbid your child or significant other kidnapped abducted etc we see an amber alert with a plate number matching description should we not snitch? I'll tell you first hand I will call it in and call it over the radio and box that vehicle in.

What is the purpose of the timeout? Just to make sure the phone is not being used in case they need to call you back for some reason?

It's not permanent.
He means that if you pinch the area just below the camera (with your thumb against the screen) if solves the common green camera issue.
I just had my camera working for the first time in months by pinching HARD. It worked for a bit, then I changed modes and it went back to green screen. I would think that means I have a short. Has anyone taken apart their tablet and resecured the connection?
Yes, see my previous thread. Hint, you need a new camera module (eBay). No easy around it unfortunately . New camera (NEW, from the seller that got them from Foxconn/assembly line) DOES fix it though.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
ebay link? I've never seen anything..
my camera turned green after 1 week of Jelly bean. About 7 months of use now. Bumps here and there but never a hard impact drop.
I really am skeptical of QC in Asus part. Mine was C2. Let's hope when I RMA it, I get a C3<
Just sent mine in for the green camera problem. I tried the Spock pinch method and it would clear it up but not completly. After a few pinches the camera has never worked again. I have another problem that I had to RMA and it was a good experience overall (execpt the fact that I didn't have my tablet for 10 days).

Do you have a functioning brain? You literally quoted the link I provided to you that explains exactly how to do it and asked "How do I fix it". Do yourself a favor, don't try. Go buy an iPad. They're designed for dense people who can't think for themselves or follow directions.
Grrr... my camera has just died too, and there I was thinking things were much better since the 4.1 upgrade.
Does anyone know how long it will take for an RMA repair in the UK?
I RMA'd for this exact problem and my tab came back absolutely fine. Just putting that out there.
