[How To] Videos on the Asus Transformer Prime! [Jelly Bean Inside!] - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

07/06/2013 - UPDATE: I am NOT abandoning this thread! I still have and use my Transformer Prime on a daily bases, and will continue to use it until I get my next tablet.
There doesn't seem to be much going for the Prime. I'm looking into a couple threads and there will should be AT LEAST a couple more videos on the Transformer Prime (added to this thread of course), before I throw in the towel and sell it or something... AFTER getting the New ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity of course...
I've seen other threads, where they posted in the development section with a thread like this (even got it stickied), so I thought I'd start one here!

I recently unlocked my Transformer Prime, installed TWRP Touch screen recovery, and installed CyanogenMod 9.
So I thought I'd share all of the videos that I've created on this beautiful device.
I have a whole playlist full of videos that I've added, and will continue to add.

great videos man. you had me laughing also with you being High on Android..lol Seriously, thanks for the vids. i made sure to like them and i subscribed. I am like you or like you was in the fact that I've been putting off unlocking my device. just in case i ever needed to send it in. I watched the how to unlock & install recovery, how to install/flash CM9 & the review of CM9 on Prime. I am really interested in the AOKP one you said you will make. Any estimated date on releasing that video? Thanks to your videos, i feel confident about unlocking once i do. It all looks very easy. I just hope i wont get stuck in recovery bootloop at first like you did in video.
I like the features AOKP has so i will be waiting on that video install/review to drop from You. So which recovery do you prefer or find to be the best or easiest to use? TeamWin TWERP, CWM touch, or old CWM regular method. That teamwin recovery with goo manager looks simple and straight forward to use. also like the fact you can choose multiple things to flash at once and pick the order that it flashes.
Once again great videos. i know ill be watching the how to unlock and flash recovery & the how to install Rom one alot more. I'm always like that. being extra careful so i don't brick my device. So by constantly reading and watching the how to vids, ill have the in & outs down packed.

WOW! I had to reread that a few times! Judging by your reply, you pay very close attention to detail.
About the AOKP video, I work full time, and I get sunday through tuesday. So I'll more than likely make the video next week! Once I get off work on Saturday's, I'm literally FREE to make videos until tuesday night!
I really like TWRP! AT FIRST, I wasn't feeling it and would go back to CWM. On my EVO3D, you can NOT charge the phone while it's off (something I like doing) and usb mounting doesn't work in recovery. And their hasn't been an update in months. So I'm definitely enjoying Team Win as their recovery simply works, without any issues, and they are QUICK to release updates! So I'll be donating to Goo Manager when i'm not so broke, because I doubt I will EVER use Rom Manager again, and I want instant updates! My Prime has already had 3 Nightly updates since making the video. I don't regret voiding at all, AND NOW I get to make ALL of these videos!
Kinda like this one! When they get more things working, that would be AWESOME to have on my Prime! A dual boot configuration would be BEAST!!!
Thanks VERY MUCH for the kind words. I saw that you liked this thread shortly after I posted it, and it reminded me of your replies to some of the threads I've replied to. I appreciate you... A LOT!

added "how to update your Prime and restore root".
If you have any requests for videos, let me know.

So it was fixed... Thank you!
I was literally about to never touch this forum again.
For a few minutes you made me feel as if I wasn't as important as others.
Thanks for clearing all of this up.

Another great Transformer prime channel is http://youtube.com/droidmodd3rx
There are a few guides that are slightly easier to follow especially the unlock and root guide which uses the wugfresh tool. Plus rom reviews and a weekly techvlog
Another good one is http://youtube.com/zedomax also good for some rom reviews and other good content like "high on android"

waiting for that AOKP video Team EOS Rom & that new Gummy Rom seem interesting also. oh, and can't forget about WSG beta Rom, very solid from what I hear. it would be great to show all the features and how they perform on a particular rom. These the kind of videos I've been waiting for to see how each of these roms look and perform and what added features they bring over stock. Although Virtuous prime is more stock based, I've heard its bulletproof. with the added features and optimization it has, its been said to be one of the most stable, if not the most. just some thoughts..lol
I see you got stickied, Congrats!

yeah, the moved it to the GENERAL forums yesterday... but I said that if mine needed to be moved, then so did the other thread that I linked to. So he moved it back and stickied it! Very Awesome!!!
That's a LOT Of roms! Lol. Question... I see some people make "HOW TO INSTALL" videos on every rom. I THINK that's unneeded IMHO... Because with EACH ROM, you just boot into recovery, wipe, and then install... lol. But some people do it with every little update that comes out. So why make a "how to install" and then separate review video?
What is YOUR thoughts on that? (Others can chime in as well) I just feel that's a way to increase your video count rather quickly... Everyone that's been around for a while, can easily apply an update.zip! If there are EXTRA steps, I can see making a video on how to install it. My videos USUALLY have a "how to install" an d a "review", IN THE SAME video. Because a "how to install" video is just a few steps, and there is no need for a 2 minute video, on each rom. Why not combine the two?
PLEASE reply with your thoughts on that. If there is extra steps in the how to install, then I'd do a separate video for that. But when it's "WIPE, INSTALL ROM, REBOOT"... I don't feel that needs a video that should take 2 minutes, all on it's own. So when i make a "how to install video", that's IT! usually after it's installed, I also walk the user around the rom, in the same video. On my CM9 video for the Prime, I actually reviewed it in the same video!! BUT, there was so much to cover, that I split it up!

I feel the exact same way as you do. the other roms I listed was more for a video review of them. no need to make a separate how to install video for each unless extra steps were needed. but its like you say, since installing a few short steps anyways, you would have them in the review video anyways. It'll be like you starting from the beginning and loading and flashing the rom, then reviewing it. Separate video definitely not needed for every different rom out there.
I'm sure people would love to see an Ubuntu install/video review also.
There are noobs & alot of people new to android that visually seeing the install gives them more confidence in doing it and wanting to try it out. Its amazing how all these Android phones n tablets can be taken past stock configuration to the world real customization. Pretty impressive stuff to be able to do these kinds of things on a Device. This is what makes Android so much better than IOS, IMO.

I think zedomax has an aokp review as well

yes he does, but dude... Seriously, Zedomax and I are friends. I don't know the other dude. They make videos like I do, and you've already brought that up a couple times! No need in keeping on. Demandarian likes my videos, and wants to see/hear MY opinions/review of the rom. All you have to do is search on YouTube for Transformer Prime AOKP and people that made a video of it, will show up!

THE SCREENSHOT BUTTON WORKS WITH CM9! I pressed it by accident and to my surprise, it took a SCREENSHOT!
SO much better than holding the power button!! Thank You!!!
EDIT: So does the Settings button! This is freaking awesome!!
EDIT 2: You can disable the trackpad as well!
EDIT 3: Looks like EVERY button works! Wifi, Bluetooth, and etc!!!!!

It's true!!! I don't know if that qualifies for an update video. I don't want to confuse people by having 19 videos of CM9 on the Prime! (every time they fix something...)
I did update the descriptions of the videos saying it works. If people read that is. This is very exciting, and I wanna give a HUGE SHOUTOUT to the people that got them to work!
That AOKP on the Prime video should come in the next couple days!
HOPEFULLY I'll finish it today. I will try. I got a family ya know

Thanks Bro...Its Helpful
