I have just been on the phone with an ASUS support Tech, and he has told me that one model of PSU has a known fault.
The model number is : 0B-LF.
Unfortunately my PSU is 0B-1LF, and as it does NOT have a known fault, it looks like I am going to be returning the whole tablet.
I had the option to return only the PSU, but if it turned out to be a tablet fault I would then be liable for any shipping costs for the second RMA.
As I have a few problems with case creek and speaker popping I will be returning the whole thing.
No Transformer for 7-10 days, and then all the hassle of reinstalling..
What a pain.
If you have the Charger with model number above,I Suggest you call ASUS asap.
You can get a cheaper call to the tech support by calling 01442202700 in the UK, and then requesting a transfer in the menus (saynoto0870.com ftw).

Mine is OB-1LF, how is that the same as OB-LF and whats faulty about it? My TF isn't faulty, would they just replace the power supply
0B-LF has a KNOWN to asus fault and will probably just be swapped out (i have no confirmation of this)
0B-1LF dosen't have a known fault, so if you have no problem then no need to get it replaced.

Mine says 0B-1LF too, I bought my TF-101 yesterday brand new. I would suggest the OB-1LF is the new revision.

Thanks, I read what you said wrong I thought you were listing your model as equal to the faulty model, thanks for the info.
+1 on the confusing OP.
it seems like what you're saying is,
1) your tf has problems
2) a certain model# is know to asus to having problem
3) unforutately, you have a diff model #
4) therefore you gotta send yours back.
statements 1 and 4 doesn't seem to have anything to do with 2 and 3. it's quite confusing.

Perfectly clear and set out logically in first post. Don't see why people are having a hard time understanding it tbh. I would imagine that there aren't that many 0B-LF chargers circulating around. Usually anything to do with power adapter faults on a large-ish scale and it's an automatic recall required. The writing is ridiculously small on it though. Doesnt help that it has multiple languages on it either.

Apologies, I agree it wasn't 100% clear!
I say it is unfortunate that my charger isn't on the known fault list, because that means they won't just send me a new one, Instead I have to send back my entire TF so they can do the same fault finding I have already done.
I mainly opened this thread so that the faulty model number could be made public.
Fault Description Post?
Hi, can you briefly describe or point me to the post that talks about the PSU issue relating to the the faulty model discussed above? Thanks in advance.

Afraid not, I got the information from an ASUS tech when on the phone about my own faulty PSU.
There are several other threads on faulty PSU's, but no one was listing model numbers until now
Type of fault
So I guess what happened to your PSU was pretty much does not charge the tablet (battery level keep draining rather than increase) even though everything plugged in correctly?
Did it work previously and just suddenly when dead on the charging? Or this is first try of charging and not working?
Also, do you have dock unit and trying the PSU on it too? Just try to see if it was the dang PSU or the plug connector or the tablet connector itself.

I disagree with your comment that the first post was perfectly clear and set out logically. It was very poorly punctuated, and if I read the first sentence literally, ending after the word tablet, I would conclude that he is returning the TF because of the OB-1LF. I was able to glean his actual meaning from his follow up posting.
bbilko would do future readers a favor if he could edit the original post, and clean it up, since that is the first thing they will read on the subject.
Agreed, if you read past the line breaks then you would come to the correct conclusion that I am returning the entire tablet.
I have however taken your point and amended the post to make things clearer.
I am afraid at the time I wrote it I was rather annoyed.

All right, it could have been clearer but it's not like it was cryptic.
He rang them >was told a certain model has a fault >he doesnt have that model >had to send whole lot back to be tested to make sure it wasnt anything else causing the problems, rather than just the charger on its own. =a logical progression.
Something that isnt logical is that I normally read threads backwards (newest posts first). Usually glean some handy info quicker that way. If everyone on these forums who started a post, added extra info from the rest of the thread (as time went on), to the original post, it would make things a lot easier to find/read up on, as you say for this post. But most the time it just doesnt happen unfortunately.
Anyways I'm still thankful he gave us some info, that no one else has reported on so far, in the first place.

My model number on my PSU is AD8-27M...does anyone else have something similar....or am I looking in the wrong place?
look the next line down, at the type.
the model number of mine is also AD827M

Hey, everyone.
My friend and I unlocked his Note and he switched to T-Mobile. We played around with flashing different radios and ended up with one that gets decent signal, but nothing that's satisfactory. Are there other radios that work on this phone? Can it be any T-Mobile radio?

Charging flex cable
Hello, I purchased a i717 off eBay and my luck i figured out after I got it and had no cell signal accept in a few real good hot spots. I figured out the seller replaced the charging port flex cable... I read that the part numbers matter a lot on this phone andhe don't have the original now.... I am trying to get this figured out it as on the case v0.3 so I'm guessing the one I needed is a rev 3.0 and I can't find it anywhere or a rev 2.0 for that matter... So does anyone have any idea how to tell which one i need and do they actually say rev 2, or just the second numbers are different but it says rev1 in the top line.....I've checked the antenna cable and it charges fine..... Please help........:crying: I sold my iPhone 5 and found this amazing phone that I can't use :crying:

Figures I get 1 reply on my first post and its someone just out to make someone feal bad...have you ever had this issue? I joined this forum looking for help not to be made fun of thanks. if I was unclear I'm sorry let me clarify....
There are 2 sets of numbers on the charging port flex cable.... I find a bunch of rev 1.0 cables with a few having different numbers for the second set of numbers on the cable. I read there are 3 revisions of this cable rev 1.0 rev 2.0 and rev 3.0.... So how can you tell which rev it is will it say rev 2 or 3 in the first set of numbers or is the second number how you tell?
So in short 1. How can you tell which rev the cable is?
2. How can you tell which rev the phone should have if you don't have the original part?
3. Where can you buy th part you need if it's rev 2 or rev 3 ?
If in doubt, buy the latest revision. It should be backwards compatible. To know for sure, contact a samsung service center and ask them.
Here it is:

You'll need to enter your IMEI.

Agreed, seems like they are just throwing things out there to cover themselves legally, its hard to find tools like this from their sites so they seem to be just doing it for the sake of doing it. Seeing as they are recalling all of them anyway it makes no sense unless they were trying to put peoples minds at rest but could back fire if their imei checker is as faulty as some batteries.
Imagine the lawsuits that would come if someone checks there imei and it gives them the all clear, then there phone catches fire.
Currently they are on one big ass covering exercise and not doing a very good job of it either
Only annoying thing about this whole debacle is two hours before they announced a recall i had sold my note 5 lol (with your rom on it of course!!!)

Just a thought!
Total recall policy is doubtful. It will never been clear what exact they will provide with new devices. Just new battery ? If so then certain batch don't have issue will remain same ?
Better Samsung have recalled every device and refunded them it could be wise decision. Later after couple of month may come with N8. They may get little loss but surely emerge with clean image and that would be total profit.
Mine's affected, good thing i took mine back this morning.
those IMEI check tools will be official after replacement take place
so you find out from which batch your new N7 and be rest assured its safe
for now maybe all SDI show's as affected
Mine is affected. No surprise.
Just tried mine.Duos bought in dubai and none of the 2 imeis are affected. in your opinion is this good enough to decide to keep the phone?

nope, not worth the risk,
Was wondering if anyone using the Chinese version on the phone managed to create an account on the ZTE market APP?
this is required in order to access the Dynamic lock screen wallpapers (for example).
The issue here is that it asks you to type your phone number in order to send back an SMS with the Verification code,
but every combination that i tried (i.e. with an international prefix, + before the number, The number iteself...) is rejected.
Thanks,
Good question. Would like to know if there is a way as well?
You might try this:
00 + 1 + City Area Code + Phone Number
That is the way I used to have to call back to the states when I lived in China if memeory serves.

Hi guys,
I've broken my Display from my Mi 10 5g.
There a 2 different types of displays. One produced by Samsung (Version S) and one by Huaxing (Type C)
I've tried to find out with App Device Info HW, at Point LCM is: j2_p2_1_38_0c_0a_dsc_cmd.
With bugreport at line msm_drm.dsi_display0=qcom
Under version information is nothing noted for display.
Maybe somebody could help me here, because I can still use my phone and want to buy a new display and then disassembly.
Cheers, Andy
This is Samsung screen if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, use App Device Info and look at the item LCM.
My number was j2_p2_1_38_0c_0a_dsc_cmd and it's the Samsung panel.
If you have the other one there should by another number here, but I'm not sure (XX)
j2_p2_1_XX_0c_0a_dsc_cmd I think it's 42 or so.
But when you buy this one:

you won't have this problem.

I've got it from log too, so you can generate a log file with the service and feedback application and read it out from there.

I've made a mistake, I tokk the informations from the log generated by twrp recovery.
There's another possibility, you can make a picture with another phone (or use a looking glass) to see if the pixels are diamond shaped, if they are it's samsung.
If you want to take the "secure" way, just buy the c-version with the conversion board. If you had huaxing, the display will work immediatly, if not just apply the board plus it's the cheaper one ;-)
mine (( j2_mp_42_02_0b_dsc_cmd )) is huaxing or samsung? from post before, i can see that mine is not 38, but 42, which means its huaxing?
