Face Unlock - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

ICS is supposed to have facial recognition for lock screen unlock but I am not seeing it as an option? Does anyone know why this is missing?

OP- please close. Just noticed this has already been discussed in general forum. Sorry, search isn't the greatest from the app. Anyone else wish you could search by individual forum on the app like you can using a browser?

seems like it's either not part of the tablet branch or asus took it out.
i wonder how hard it would be to add back in?

QUESTION: Movie Studio Video Import Working?

Has anyone tried to import videos into a Movie Studio project? I can't get it to work. Whether recorded with my Prime or copied to my Prime shot with my SGS2 I only get an error message staying that the file can't be imported. Also, it doesn't seem possible to navigate to other directories. I've searched the net and looked through Google's group but I haven't found anything. I also searched CDs. I'm hoping that my old eyes have missed something. ;-)

After a little more testing I figured out that it looks like the program can only do .3GP videos which probably totally sucks. If you record a video while you're in movie studio told that video will work.

New prime doesn't like XDA?

Only had a chance to play for an hour or so, but the only issue I noticed is that it doesn't seem to like the XDA Dev app! (you could cut the irony with a knife!)
Lots of FC's as soon as i try to bring up a post. Searching for xda obviously is no help, any thooughts?
Not having a problem here

Same thing happened to me on my Xoom with the free version. If you get the premium, it works
Premium works, but not perfectly on the Prime. For example, when scrolling, you'll often get an annoying flash from touching one of the topics first. I've been using Tapatalk instead on my Prime, which seems to run a little better.

Tapatalk question

I noticed quite a few people here use tapatalk app. Screenshots on the Market were taken only from a mobile phone. How does it work on a tablet? Does it scale nicely? Does it properly flip the screen between vertical and horizontal?
Yep it works well. Here's a screenshot.

I find it occasionally buggy but otherwise concur.

Unsubscribe the sub-forum from your favourites, go to the forum list, refresh it and then add it back to your favourites.

It works but it has plenty of missing features like the ability to search individual forums (or so it appears) and I think the interface mediocre but it's better than nothing.

Yeah, it works, but not at all tablet optimised. There is a HD version which has been released in the Samsung store only for the Galaxy Tab but unfortunately it does not appear to be released for any other tablets yet and when I tried installing the apk it loaded, but FCs when you try to log into a forum, making it useless.
So there does seem to be hope for a tablet version at some point.

Brightness flashing

OK I'm new to the tf201. Just got it after my tf101 and have tried searching for some answers but didn't find anything.
When I manually set my brightness and say watch a movie in the dark at night I can see my brightness clicking up and down. Anyone experienced this? I also have washed out colors ... but I think that's just my screen.
Thanks

I think I readed a while ago that the constrast is changing a bit. I would also want to disable that.
Sent from my sgs2 running cm9 using xda app
me too!!!
Omg this is SO ANNOYING. I emailed the asus tech guys but all thry said was to return it
Or to send it in for RMA
The contrast is changing? How do you fix (change) that?
Hum mm maybe I should send it back in....
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
It's a tegra 3 battery saving feature, automatic contrast. It's extremely annoying, but sadly no way to remove it... It's less visible if you up the brightness. Really wish Asus would make it so you could turn it off, at least in performance mode or something...

hi, is there an update i have to perform to make the dongle work? i am on .21 and unlocked so cant update via asus.
is there anything obvious that happens when the dongle is plugged in, does it show as connected anywhere?

Update .21 is the latest update (although another is right around the corner) and the one you need. I don't have mine yet, so I'm not too sure, but as soon as you connect it and slide the locking mechanism over then it's connected. You have to turn your GPS on under your settings and it should be using the dongle. Have a walk outside, put it on and slide the lock, turn your GPS on and run GPS Test or something similar. Remove dongle and test again, you should see a huge decrease in performance if it performs without the dongle at all.
to be honest i have never seen any problem with the gps, i know its not really a great benchmark but seems just as good as my galaxy s.
i will run the tests with and without but didnt seem any quicker to lock when i popped outside a while ago. wasnt sure it was actually working which is why i posted this. wondered if it showed up anywhere similar to when the dock is in place.

.22 is the latest update. It was forced so you wouldn't have seen it happen. Being rooted doesn't stop updates. I am rooted and it updated itself days ago. It contained the fixes for the dongle to work. For those who are unlocked, you have to wait for your ROM writer to add the code. Gary has said that ASUS are looking to release a version of NVFlash for those who are unlocked.

Really? I suppose you're one of the rare few who has relatively decent GPS reception somehow. Good for you lol, I hate you
I suppose the only way to really be sure is to disconnect the internal GPS from its antenna and then use the dongle. Surely there would be a way for the system to realize the dongle is inserted and to let the end-user know about it. I mean, they tell us to type words with the keyboard, I just can't believe they're not telling us we've plugged the dongle in. I wonder if some kind of Tasker profile couldn't differentiate between it and the dock, I doubt it?

Um, what? .22? What country and are you sure you don't mean .21? I keep my Prime's WiFi on 24/7 and my DMClient unfrozen, just manually checked and no update.
i am unlocked not rooted so i cant get anymore updates from asus. am on the latest .21 . updated before my prime was so kindly unlocked.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
Any good?
Does the dongle make a marked difference in reception?
none at all as far as i can see.
could be
1. not working / user error
2. my prime gps was working ok to start with.
hoping there is someway to get feedback from the prime to let me know its using the dongle
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
I have the dongle
It definitely helps my gps but it dose look bad.
Maybe a company may start making skins for the dongle to make them more attractive and protected. Exposed dongles isn't good. It' not immuned to bumps and bruises.

My bad. Typo on my part. Of course it is .21!!
i think the dongle is well designed. locks in place and fairly discreet considering. could have been an ugly block like a usb stick or the camera add on thingy for the ipod.
i found it makes a nice handle when reading a book

I'll pull out my inner demandarin real quick to say do not apply direct pressure to the dongle - don't use it as an actual handle!
That being said, IMO it would be OK so long as you have larger hands and are pretty careful about it, just don't go trying to support your entire tablet with it. Don't support the tablet at all with it actually, seriously, going to feel terrible if you accidentally crack your screen lol
well didnt actually mean just the dongle. just adds a bit of a ridge to stop and slippage while holding
