So, I get up this morning and checked my tracking number and it showed as delivered and left by side door. Odd, I dont have a side door! Go outside and sure enough no package. Best buy has put a trace on it but I'm sure I won't see it. And she tells me they are of course out of stock. They are supposed to try and contact the driver and find where he left it. Gotta love UPS.

Open the package when the ups man comes. That happened to a cell phone I ordered through tmobile except when I opened it, the phone was gone. Only the box with charger and manuals were inside.

What about GPS? How accurate is the fix when WiFi is off? (or in flight mode)
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Could not get a lock without wifi. But that is not a big deal to me. I have no use for GPS on my tablet. Also, I had an issue with my thrive where I could not download any game that required additional files to be downloaded after the game was installed. It would always fail. This issue is not present on my prime.

wow. A bit close for comfort! Did you ask the neighbors or did UPS tell you where it was?
I ordered a ipod a few years back from Best Buy and it was shipped by Canadian Post. I was tracking it and the day it said delivered I checked my postal box and no package. I gave the postman my tracking number and he checked on his system and it was signed for and picked up. He showed me the signature and it was just some scribbles. They told me since it was signed for that they can't do nothing for me. I showed them my signature on my drivers license and asked them if it matched. Of course it didn't but they still never did anything.

I had to call best buy to get the process started, the gal I spoke with was awesome. She called ups and conferanced them in on the call. They say they would send a message to the driver and I would hear back within the hour. About twenty min later the local ups office called and said they talked to the driver and he described the house where it was left. I told the gal that house was two houses down and I would go there and look. Sure enough it was just inside the screen door. Opened door, grabbed package, happy camper.

I had first noticed that while docked I had this flickering while closing the tab. It appears there is something totally wrong with this unit. Today I was playing zen pinball and i pressed hardly for the right flipper and this screen flickering again. Starting with the bezel when I apply pressure to the right bottom part of the tab the screen flickers into white. I don't think it is a common issue.

Solved. End of topic, mod please close it.
I find I can replicate screen flickering just by tapping the recent items button after having a dozen apps/pages stored there.
A reboot fixes it but it comes back later.

Not the same here. Yours must be DEFECTIVE..
Ok, every product has a small percentage of defective devices. Besides the other issues, THIS is that small group. Return it, it's that simple. They will send you a new one. No need to create a topic to vent your anger when there is a very simple solution.
Wait wait wait.....no nobody is allowed to complain??? If it's a valid concern that doesn't seem right.

Mine dID something like this after exiting a game. This was a couple of days after ICS installed. I did a couple of reboots and it disappeared. Never did it before ICS and has been good since. I marked it up to ICS and program issue. Prime is working great now and even the same game works fine. Hopefully it is something similar.

Ok true. However most are told to read before they post. If you read in this forum, you get about two pages before, uggghhh I hate this piecer lol.

What is wrong with people who throw flames to someone complaining about an item spent that much. Don't worship companies which screw you with defective units, false advertisement and all. Then you become not different from Apple worshippers.

The Complaint System Works
How quickly everyone forgot about the bootloader, the whole Prime community sang the loudest compaint campaign that made Asus change their mind about the lock. Let's give those with valid reasons the room to voice their concerns, not getting any answer or support will only lead to fans losing their Prime esteem and leaving the fold.

Up today I hated Apple. My next tablet will be Ipad3.
I am just joking. I'll wait for the next Samsung. I am not an Acer guy, and although I have huge respect for Asus in the PC area (for the last 17 years my mainboards had always been Asus, 7 note and netbooks including TM91 and I recently bought the Zenbook) i lost my trust in the Android arena. I returned TF1 in a week because of terrible light bleeding, and now this. I thought mine was perfect except GPS but after 3 weeks of use now I discover the screen issue. I was really sorry to see Samsung not giving any hints about its next tablet in CES 2012. I had 2 Acer notebooks with huge problems, so it is not my brand. It means I'll wait some time and am very sorry for selling GTab 10.1.

It's definatly a valid concern. I'm just wondering why we have threads with people just venting. It's a VERY easy fix. If Asus didn't fix it, THEN he should vent, I would too. I just feel like Asus deserves the benefit of the doubt on this. Don't blast a company if you haven't even tried to work out the issue.

This is one of the most ignorant statements on this forum.
So when you bought your garmin nuvi which says gps on the box and you cant use it within 50 feet of any structures or trees, that to you is acceptable because the box does not state "it works".
GPS printed on my prime box, meaning GPS should work ALL the time, not on Sundays at 3pm wearing a blue tie and purple pants. GPS should work as GPS is expected to. Outside with clear skys should not display can not locate satellites...

I shipped my prime in for rma Bluetooth /wifi repair and they shipped it back with a huge dent and jelly on the back. The dent is on the bottom right corner. From what I have been reading this is not a singular incident. I have sent a PM to Gary and am thinking of emailing and or calling Asus support. Any ideas? I'm going to upload the images shortly.
Contact me at [email protected] or PM me
*edit * here are the imgs ( had to post from phone )
** the liquid is from a skinomi screen protector I was re- applying when I noticed the dent .
( pm if you want pics had to ttake down so I could post somewhere else)

Def PM Gary and them, did you have pictures before you sent it in? If not you will be hard pressed to win this one. That being said def sounds like they dropped it or something.

read this... they are not careful and not "honest".
This is getting pathetic isn't it? Wonder what has happen to... let me quote Gary Key:
3/20/21012 Update -
1. I will be back to the forums on 3/22/2012.
2. We will have a major ICS update (.19) arriving shortly (might be .20 now).
3. We will have a major announcement on the TF201 in the near future.
4. We will have dedicated forum assistance starting in the near future.
3/22/2012 Update -
1. I am back for the next few days. I will get caught up on messages and updates shortly.
2. The next firmware update is in qualification testing now. We are also working on solving some flickering problems reported by a few users and hopefully that will be addressed in this next release.
3. The announcements on the TF201 (not being canceled as speculated) will occur as soon as I have a release to do it.
4. Full time forum support at a few Android centric sites will be launched in the near future as discussed.
I have a video I took for YouTube and I'm hunting down pictureS I took The day of sending. I sware though if Gary doesn't do it ( I have faith in him) I'm going to call and seriously complain and nag until they send me a fixes and working one
..I don't really want my money back as this is the only tablet I wanted, however if they did offer I might take it and wait until they come out with a fully fixed version.
Still waiting for Gary to get back to me

Hi,
I had the same Problem.
I RMA my TP due to BT/WIFI dropout. When it returned, (without any repair) there was a dent at the right corner.
They obviously dropped my TP during RMA. I took pictures and RMA again. Now waiting since 3weeks.

Like many pre-orders, I received mine on Thursday.
I was disappointed, however, that the seal has been broken and there were scuffles and smudges in the back near the camera.
Perhaps, mine was opened by US Customs to examine.
I'm wondering if there are many others out there who received their phones in similar condition.
Also, I couldn't find any headphones included. Is that right?

The serial number, hex and dec number on my box were different from the ones on my phone. I had all kinds of problems getting it activated until i pulled the back cover and saw different numbers. The tech support guy at sprint i was on the phone with said he has only seen that 1 or 2 times in the several years hes been there. Customs must have taken it out of the box and put it in another.
Yall are just the unlucky bastards.
1st guy... Probably did check Yours and the agent didn't give a crap.
2nd guy... Lol that is 100 percent the agent was a retard. My of broke it and put a different one in it.
Cough get dna... Background cough
Wow that really sucks....I hope you can get that replaced...or at least replace the top plastic.
i'd be madd pissed.
denggg.. so did the customs agents just randomly open boxes to check? i thought maybe they'd take one from each batch or just one period for investigation. rediculous.

Maybe the phone that was originally taken out - was NOT but back in, but they kept the packaging/labeling and threw in another phone? Hence the mismatch numbers. Just a guess Would probably be easier to open a box with no label and just put that phone in the labeled box.

All the phones I have ever had come with headphones (and micro SD too). Odd.
It's a $500-$600 phone, and doesn't include headphones. That's quite perturbing.

That's really sh1tty. Sorry to hear that.
@other
OG Evo didn't come with headphones either. Box. Phone. Charger.
sent from 2yr old Evo on ICS
My last 2 phones were the EVO, and the EVO 3D, neither of which came with headphones. The way I see it is the headphones that come with phones are usually pretty crappy and I'd rather have them spend that few cents on improving the build quality of the phone. They're most likely going to cut corners somewhere to pay for the headphones they include.

Well like I said, I've purchased from them before and they were prompt and somewhat fast. As for the red flags, I use WOT and Mcafee siteadvisor in FireFox when I'm not sure and it didn't throw any flags when I first checked them out.
Glad this was of use to you.
I just bought one, thanks for the tip, I just saw it while browsing the forum page. It kind of sucks that it says it can take up to 6 business days to ship, but that is the max so it is probably just in case. Get the best bluetooth for the price of the worst.

How much was it on the site, just wondering?
The Tracking number they gave me starts with a 9 and it should start with 1Z usually for UPS, but they may use SurePost(a combo of UPS and USPS) which I dont know much about. Does anyone know what is going on with the shipping tracking?
I received a similar number dorm my order last week and it took a few days (including the weekend) before i was able to track it.
I ordered last Wednesday and it should arrive thisThursday.

I had the EXACT same experience. I ordered on Wednesday got the tracking info on Friday(I think, not by email). I was only able to track it when I checked today after like 10 or 11 maybe not sure, but before that it said "Not available". It is a different type of shipping....It is 1 hr 10 min away from me RIGHT NOW, and I wont get it till Thurday either(estimated, possibly earlier I guess).
"UPS Mail Innovations" is who is shipping it, may not be that same.

I don't recall getting an email giving me a shipping number, but I checked the webpage and shows that I'll get mine Thursday. oh and mine is 104 miles away. Knowing UPS, it'll be here on Thursday they don't tend to like to get things to me early.
So I just got this in on the 20th and wanted to play with it a bit before I said anything about it. In a nutshell, I don't like it. I like it's premise with A2DP, the accelerometer and the cool integration things, but in the end I feel it was poorly executed.
First the rubber actually hurts my ear, which is a novel concept for me because I have big ears. Even with a big earpiece, I was hoping it would apply enough grip that I could wear it without the loop, but no such luck. The over the ear hook is cool, it disconnects easy enough but not so easy that i'll pop off while on your ear and it swivels for optimal positioning, but it's hard plastic and it's a small loop.
The audio is good, but not better than any of it's competition, but in the same breath it isn't worse than it's competition either. The noise assassin, is a cool idea, but no more effective than the competition's noise canceling.
The tap tap function is cool, but why not just use a button? It has a function called shake shake so you can answer your phone call while it isn't in your ear, my only question is why not just put it in your ear and answer it then? To pair, it uses a double shake shake, which is handy to quickly put the headset into pairing mode, but how often do you need to pair a headset?
The software. Oh how i wish I could say that all of that could be made up with the software. But all you can do with the software is tell it what you want the talk button to do when you press it and if you want it to speak your calender reminders.
Lastly is the webpage. First you have to install the updater software, which you would imagine to operate similar to like a logitech software bundle but all it does is provide an interface for your headset and the webpage which is fine. You can choose from 6 different voices which is cool AND you can specify what service you want to use when you do a press and hold action. Unfortunately the majority of the services, (all 7 of them) require accounts/payments. From the webpage you can access different functions like disabling the tap tap or shake shake feature or A2PD, but my question is, why can't the app handle these?
I guess I'm being just picky or maybe I'm jaded because I just got it in and it isn't working with my phone anymore (not sure if it's a ROM issue or a headset issue) but I don't like the headset. If anyone wants it, i'll give it up for a little less than I paid for it or else it'll probably end up in a drawer whilst I continue my search for the best bluetooth headset.
Oh and a bit on dailysteals, good company, the headset only came with the 1 ear cover, and the back was a little scratched up where it looked like someone couldn't figure out how to plug it in but I can accept that for a headset that's still going for $70 to $110 new.
I'll take it off your hands if you want.

**** you Asus. $500 for this utter piece of **** tablet. I can't use gmail, email, maps, calendar, widgets, no games at all, pretty much ANYTHING, because everything just hangs after a few seconds. I've waited since last December, one update after the other, even went through a month long RMA, so far no sign of improvement. With the last bits of patience left I'll wait for the jelly bean update... and then if the prime still sucks - I'm going to punch a hole in this thing with a hammer, apply the baseball bat treatment office space style, and post pictures of it here.

Or you could sell it on ebay and donate the money to a charity that you feel could use it...

RAM Manager PRO with profile hard gaming fixed all my problems ! I was like you since january... Using that app and slide out apps from recent apps list when I finish using them, gives me 0 crashes.
Try It man !
Good luck !

Why shouldn't he be able to let off a bit of steam after waiting nine months for updates to fix his problems and going through a lengthy RMA process that still didn't fix the issues he's having. It sounds like his Prime is unusable in it's current state which is unacceptable for a $500+ product. I'm sure the stories of being upgraded to an Infinity or being given a full refund doesn't help the situation either, it saddens me to see other people given a get out of jail free card when I'm left with a product I find sub-par from a technical standpoint that I have no way of getting rid of.

I do think he was overly harsh against folks who have problems and cant help themselves. However I got the same weak wifi laggy prime everybody else with problems had, I just did something about it instead of waiting too long to return it and crying the blues. If my college student kid came to me and said I got some tech that is unusable as is but I waited too long to return it. I would ask her whose fault is that?
Instead of giving us that excuse on why you haven't applied a hammer to it yet due to wait on upcoming JB release.
Why don't you just go to ASUS and download the 4.1 JellyBean update for TF300 and install in on your TF201.
Whilst I agree that's what should happen, many people either naively hoped for future fixes and so kept it as it would be a struggle to get another at the time or like myself were unaware of some of the issues until it was too late (I had less than a week since I bought it abroad from a shop that doesn't operate over here). I wasn't able to compare the WiFi since I didn't know where the router was in the Villa I was staying in and had no other device to compare it to so was ignorant to the WiFi problem which I guess you could partly blame me for for not checking online. Many aren't willing to open their Prime's like you did (A move I may try if the WiFi is still poor after my RMA) to fix their issues out of fear of another issue coming up and then not being able to RMA it for that issue.
