Unlock the BOOTLOADER NOW!!! - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

This is the first major step ASUS can take to resolving a lot of issues with this device.
Let the Devs at it!
20 devs are still better than the 10 or so ASUS and Nvidia are allocating on this problem...
ASUS, Unlock the bootloader NOW!
Not when ICS is stable - how would you know if it would ever be?
NOW!!! ASUS, NOW!!!

I think that statement could be unfair.
I have no idea of the number of engineers and programmers they have employed who have ridiculous amounts of experience... or not.
But yes, considering the difficulties they're facing at maintaining a working model across the board, opening it up to as many minds as possible would certainly yield the best results. Good luck

Lol....I think the time has finally come..Bootloader does need unlocking. It may be the only thing to bring order n relief to the threads. Great things gonna happen once it is unlocked. Issues will get fixed. Plus we will have Sick roms. This latest update is killing everything.

Well, the results of my thread would still be better than yours!

I cant wait to see some developers take what Asus has made and making it 10000x better.
I have a rooted/romed Ally and Droid X that are10x better than when i first got them. Allow normal people to cook their own rom is a recipe for greatness.

This is true.
They usually have a more solid base to start on however. It will be interesting to see what happens, most definitely.

Yeah I have to agree. Seeing the awesome ROMS that the developers have done on other devices just makes you wonder what they could do with the prime.

Hey Atleast my thread got us results awhile back!

Duly noted. Two times. Thank you for your time and trying to help. Please stop replying to every post about how your thread is so cool... If anything, provide the link, an informative statement about this being your goal all along, and move on...

I have no doubt in my mind devs have a better chance then Asus to figure most of these issues out.

No offense to any devs because you guys are amazing, but you can't honestly believe these devs have a better chance then Asus? Asus wrote the code to every UI element, and has source code for every proprietary driver on the device. I'm not trying to be an ass but what I see alot more on this forum are people saying dumb comments like this. I love the fact devs here can let me overclock/ run aosp but don't you think the people who made the device/soc could do the same thing and much much more? Again this is no way a bash on any dev at all. Personally I think a guy named toastcfh should be hired by HTC or any company because he is great at writing code and I no many others are like that. This rant is because people don't give credit where most of the credit is due which is Asus/Nvidia/Google.

Looks like it went over your head I was being somewhat sarcastic but at the same time I doubt the devs would work backwards instead of forwards and didn't they already fix serial # issue before Asus could?

Quite simply, yes. I do believe that crowd sourcing has a much higher chance of fixing the software problems with the Prime than Asus devs do. Go read The Cathedral and the Bazaar to see why.
As for credit where credit is due, without the incredible work of Linus Torvalds Android wouldn't even exist today.
Unlocking the bootloader is the best chance we have of getting the software issues resolved in a timely fashion.

Not to denigrate the fine work that Torvalds has achieved, but Android could well have existed without the Linux kernel, by using BSD/Mach, much like Apple did.

Linux is just a kernel, it's the combined works of the GNU community that made what people refer to as Linux what it is.

Mr. Torvalds work that I was praising was not creating the Linux kernel, but inventing crowd sourcing and making Open Source what it is today. Again, read The Cathedral and the Bazaar.

Help JoelZ9614 get a Transformer Prime!

I would like to start this off by saying that I know we some great devs on this device who, I'm sure, will make some awesome ROMs/Kernels and I appreciate everything that every developers puts into any device whether I use it or not! Thank you all!
With that out of the way, I would like to start a donation thread to get JoelZ9614 a Transformer Prime. I have already PMed him to make sure he was willing to do this and he is completely up to it. I would also like to say that he has not asked for anything from anyone. I am doing this because he has done a lot of work for the community and never asked for anything in return. I'm sure there are a lot of people with a TFP who also have an HTC Rezound or an HTC Evo 3D and already know who he is. However, for those of you who don't, check out his work and you will see why I am asking for the community to buy him a TFP.
Here are some links to show you guys what he has done....

Those are just a few to give you an idea of how much he does.
I know its not a lot but its all I can afford to put up right now. I will be putting up more as soon as I have it though. I'll get us started with $15.
Anyone who would like to donate, post and I'll add you name and amount to the OP. Please post amounts in USD. The more devs we have, the better!
Thanks in advance for anyone who donates!!!

It's not that he needs the money or the device. I started this because he is another dev that we can add to the TFP and someone who is proven to make quality ROMs. I'll be donating my $15 to him either way. I just thought it would be a nice gesture to show him that the community values devs like him and others enough to help them out a little. I can see why devs are leaving XDA left and right.
These devs do this stuff for FREE and a lot of them never ask for anything in return and there are people who insult them and are completely ungrateful. I don't know how to develop and I know these devices aren't cheap. This is my way of helping them out for helping me keep my device new to me. I have had the same phone since the Evo 3D came out in July and I still get to flash new ROMs every week. I don't get bored with my phone that will be way outdated here very soon! I can't afford to go out and buy phones/tablets every time something new comes out.
EDIT: Guess I should have looked at your join date and post count before going into all that. If you haven't been here before this month and haven't flashed a new ROM or kernel, there is no way you'll understand. It's about appreciation and respect for the devs.

Hell yea man! Thanks for stopping by this thread. I love your ROMs. You were the first to do a lot. I haven't been genuinely impressed with many ROM devs but you and a couple others have really impressed me! We need a dev over here who can not only compile CM9 but keep up with it.
It seems that everyone who has put CM9 out isnt even maintaining it. Hope we get to see what you can do with this beast!

Man, no love for JoelZ huh? That sucks. Would have loved to see what he could have done with this thing. He made some badass ROMs for the 3D, which doesn't even have an ICS leak yet. Could only imagine what he could get done with something that has official ICS.

I think a lot of people (myself included) are waiting for the supposed GPS/WiFi fix that is supposed to start happening near the end of this month. I personally will wait to see the results of RMAs to see if I will send mine in. Can't send it in if the warranty is voided.
I have used Joel's PrimeXL for the Evo and I still use it to duel boot between Honeycomb and ICS. It would rock if we could get him to develop for the TFP.

It's not, Jer is warning that they can lead to problems not that you can't try it.

Senior members are devs too

Was denied my application for developer tag. That's fine. I understand. This isn't me complaining that I got denied. But more of a point that they are being more selective about them which is a good thing. I'm one of the people here that have seen that tag be given out so easily. Sure I havent released anything for the shooter yet. But I have made 4 quality roms on the Hero. 3 of which I compiled CM on my own machine. In the old standards I would have had it no problem. I applied after the committee cracked down. I'm no development wizard by any means. I do what I can with what I've got. Everyday I'm learning more and more which is the excitement Im addicted to. Love to see changes I make work.
My point to this is simple though. You don't "need" the developers tag to be a developer. Just do it. It's just a title. Dont be discouraged by it. If your even dabbling in making anything keep up the efforts. Every user here appreciates anyone's work that your kind enough to share.
Please don't start bashing the committee or XDA in general. This was meant as a positive position on the crackdown.

I've created a rom which has 3000+ comments and 582000 views and i have the senior tag, still i don't really care much about the tag. Does a developer tag make you a better DEV? No
So therefore even if i am stuck with the senior tag i wont complain (and i have never complained about it) cuz i dont consider it necessary

We are mutually beneficial to each other. I've been slacking the development work lately due to classes and my girlfriend. At least she is in my programming classes too and understands my love of development.
How's that ETA app coming along? I've been working on programs for my intermediate Java class where I'm dreaming code.
Oh I got accepted into the Computer Game Design major! One of the harder majors to get into and the most course intensive as well.

While it would be nice for you to have some recognition for your talents and achievements ( and you have come a long way, buddy) those that know you already recognise you as a developer.

Yep, I'm really impressed at how much the developers have accomplished in such a short amount of time since this device released! It's been like, what, a little over 2 weeks? Yet we already have root, an unlocked bootloader, a way to get back to factory stock, and a bunch of custom roms! This dev community has helped to create a bright future for Verizon's Note II and I can't wait to see what else they have in store!
For me this site the awesome work done by so many devs here is why I run an Android device, who wants a walled garden or a phone everyone else has when you can be as custom and crazy as you want to be. Thanks to all who make this a great community to be a part of.

My thought to the ETA guys is "if you want it done so fast then do it yourself" I think the team working on the note are some of the best out there...I mean this thing has been out 3 weeks and beanstown106 has already kicked out like 3 ROMs. I mean these guys could punch out roms faster but theyd be buggy as crap. Personally if im putting my name on something its gonna be right. Its crazy. We are just scratching the surface of the dev/mod potential of this phone I think. This is my first Sammy and I'm so glad I made the jump.
I've been following this community since the day it was posted on xda. I've been following everything going on and even donated here and there. I've read and studied every single page lol. I won't be getting my note till after Christmas, but it's okay I feel like a Odin pro by now. Lol. I too wan to shout out a HUGE Thanks. These devs deserve every bit of it.

dsb9938 does some great work. As a (non-Android) developer myself, I know how frustrating it can be when software issues arise, especially when you have ungrateful users that feel like they are entitled to a piece of software that is developed for free by someone in their spare time that asks for nothing in return. It's disgusting. This is why we can't have nice things.
I hope that dsb9938 decides to come back. We need people like him to help unlock our devices full potential. Screw the whiners. Let them be drown in their own misery.
I agree with you... But this thread is getting locked in 3-2-1 BOOM!

I was really dissapointed when I see closing threads of DSB. I was using his great kernel. He made so much for us... WTF. I missed a lot. Is there anything we can do to deal somehow the issue with this lurke69 ??

Ban him. Pure and simple

So there is no thread for *****ing so I am making myself one. I absolutely hate to no end that a couple of douchefags can ruin a good thing for everyone. One such big douchebag is that retard Luke666. How can he go in and start *****ing to a good dev like DSB who is doing so much good work for little to nothing or free. I am absolutely pissed of the outcome of the situation but I respect DSB's decision to move away from the jumpsuit and hope one day he can change his mind. I am from the rezound forums which had so much bull**** go on. I wish everyone that wants to run thier mouth would just scream at theirselfs in the mirror or bang their head on a door frame its all just BS but ok then we cant all get what we want. If a mod can close this thread as not to cause I flame war it would be great I just needed to get this off my chest. I hope everyone, well everyone but Luke667 had a Merry Christmas and has a Happy New Year

And this comment makes you better than Luke 666 or Luke 667 or Luke1333? This is the issue with xda members. If you don't have something good to help the situation out don't say anything. Name calling isn't the answer.

kids who read GPL and think they are owed, and DESERVE something. people like DSB do it in his free time, and people expect paid support.
that is what this is.
All i have to say about all of this is. Anyone should be able to say there opinion. That is in a good way. If you are just writing a post to piss someone off i believe that you should be banned from the forums. No ifs, and's, or buts.
It is ridiculous anyone would grip about a mod that clearly starts off with the phrase "I am in no way responsible..." I haven't even switched from the stock rom just because I want things to work. If I was willing to explore and felt like reloading my setup to switch roms, I wouldn't *****. It is to be expected. When a new rom is released, I wait to see what the issues (if any) are before I would attempt a re-flash.
There are good devs on this board but I have seen quite a few of them get chased away by whiners and complainers. Hell, I am still using a rom from Roebeet on my GTab who used to be here but left for the same reason. He actually started his own website to build roms. It is a hobby, not a job. Don't expect stuff and you will not be disappointed.
Just remember, a lot of these whiners are the new generation who will be running this country in a few years and making it suck for all of us.
So I just picked up my replacement DNA last night and it just hit me. How am I going to unlock and root without the unsecured kernel? Or anybody else for that matter. This is bigger than first imagined if only very early adopters have root. Wow this sucks bad.

While Luke's comments weren't "productive" , they also were not rude or ban worthy. While I enjoy dsb's work, he has a bad attitude in general and I thought it was disrespectful as well as made him look like a giant cry baby for saying he'd never release anything else because Luke asked him to have some accountability for the fact he messed up on his latest kernel, 2.3.1 which was rebooting everybodies phones. Luke may have gone about it the wrong way, but I believe he felt as I did. Felt that dsb was ignoring the fact that there was something seriously wrong with his latest kernel. Dsb had incinuated that it wasn't his kernel that made everbodies phones lock up and reboot, but it was "problems with the phone, even on stock". Nobody minds if you make a mistake and your work directly messes up phones. At least take responsibility and admit you were wrong so you can start working on a fix. Also dsb was frequently rude to commentors who did nothing wrong or acted flip towards them. This behavior is simply unacceptable especially for a recognised developer. Recognized developers represent xda and they should carry themselves with respect for others and themselves while posting on the forums, even if others don't always.
To the OP of this thread. Grow up.

You can still do all those things. I followed the cube kernal from day one and to me the luke guy is being made a villian here. don't know him, don't care to know him. but DSB was very sarcastic to him on the forums. that's when they both started talking crap. either way it sucks and hope he decides to return. i used all the kernals he made and ended up sticking with the unsecured. but swipe to unlock was great. unless you've read the entire cube thread don't jump to judge.
Luke *****ed about every build and he kept egging on the dev every chance he could. As noted in another thread about this, Luke was rude to the moderators too so it's not just DSB.

Luke definitely is missing a filter. Again for me this isn't about Luke's actions but Dsb's. Dsb will constantly run into lukes everywhere in life. Not just on the forums. My advice to dsb is to work on his forbearance for others.

A warning to the community here

Hi everyone I ASSUME everyone here has seen we have jelly bean as of today. I want to thank the devs who work on it but one man stands out here and that is chad. While other devs have moved on to other devices other projects he stuck with us and proved to be a gift to everyone here. For the past year this guy has made everything ICS, AOSP, and now Jelly Bean (yes I'm aware they are the same) possible the guy is a machine and seriously deserves respect from this community. From what i understand this thing isn't quite ready 100%. Chad released this on good will that we understand AS A COMMUNITY recognize this is still a work in progress and that over time just as it was for ICS things will be ironed out. Work that said Chad has polietly asked we keep his threads clean and we keep bug reporting to the rom thread you use. Do not I will say again
DO NOT BOTHER CHAD WITH ANY BUG REPORTS STICK TO ROM THREADS.
I say this because I wholly respect what he has and is doing for us and hope to keep chad here as a dev for awhile his dedication and skills surpass any Dev I have ever had the pleasure of using their work. He will over time fix things i know and trust him on his word. So People of the Rezound community I emplore you to follow this rule, and allow Chad to do what he has to do.
KEEP HIS THREADS CLEAN AND DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT PM HIM ABOUT UPDATES BUGS OR HOW YOUR CAMERA DOESN'T WORK SO YOU MISSED YOUR BABIES FIRST STEPS. IT'S NOT HIS PROBLEM.
YOU AS A FLASHER HAVE TAKEN FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU DO TO YOUR PHONE.
WITH THAT SAID. I love this phone, this community, and our devs, we all continue to contribute and build on a user experience like no other phone. And if we show patience and understanding here im sure chad will reward us in the future as will the other devs. We all need him here so show your respect to him by following this threads guidelines.
SORRY FOR THE LONG THREADS. I just love android and this place I have said my peace if anyone feels this is an unnecessary thread or post pm me I will gladly remove it but i felt this was important and should even be a sticky. I hope this didnt insult or upset offend anyone just lookin out for my community.

If Chad had allowed posting cm10 builds publicly from the start, then I never would have learned what I learned about android.
Even though builds are now floating around publicly, it's still a great idea to compile it yourself!
Not sure if the warning was necessary but I wholly agree. Don't bother Chad.
its good news for all of us rezound users,thanx CHAD

I guess it shouldn't say warning I just want to make sure people understand we need to respect chad and since many don't read before they flash maybe this could help get the word out about how we need to approach jelly bean bug reporting

There are a few guides in the dev section that are fairly easy to follow. That's how I learned to compile. Its written for Cm9 but all you have to do is change which repo you are synching and build. You should honestly try it out. Its a really rewarding feeling.

I don't feel these threads help at all. You basically just rephrased what chad himself said, but you said it with RANDOM CAPS everywhere.

I'm not a moderator, so I don't clean the place.
I have grown up a lot on this forum, so I just try to pop some common sense in if I can. There is no reason to blow up about something simple on a forum.
