True! I have asked a question about ten times on the same subject but never got my answer. My question was for developers about adding Onskreen Cornerstone but never got one response. I also had a question the other day about adding support for an app called 2nd core to the Gingerbread kernel but never got a response. I see a lot of "Know It Alls" in our forums for the Note. Everyone starts complaining when people ask questions instead of answering. The worst is when people keep tellin others they are asking questions in the wrong place but still offer no help to people. Trust me there are lots of smartasses over here that know nothing at all but think they know everything, it cracks me up. The crazy part is they make threads about showing screenshots of your homescreen lol and quadrant scores lollol and get a lot of post about this meaningless **** but can't or won't answer a question. I could car less how peoples phone looks and I hope they realize how corny they are for wanting everyone to see their homescreen LOLOLOLOL. One day I made a post about a Note clone and because I told people to google "Note clone" they got mad as hell. Like its hard to search. They were mad that I didn't post links to pics and videos. It turns people off from contributing when people are dicks. One monkey ruines the show for everyone. I have also seen threads where people would respond to a question but the only thing they would talk about was the typo the OP made like they don't ****up too. IDIOTS! By the way I don't have mhl but maybe you could ask a friend that has a known working HDMI cable to let you barrow it and try it for an hour and if it messes ip then its probably the MHL adapter.

what rom are you running? I used my adapter that came with my infuse when i first got my note and was still running stock with no issues at all. Video was perfect and sound as well. This was running on a 56in hdtv.
i have not tested the adapter with any other roms that i can remember, it has been a while since i have needed it. Try a different hdmi cable as you said it may be your problem.

Maybe this would be a cool thing to port...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038840
See here. EVO as your desktop. EVO and Thunderbolt are pretty similar right? So maybe we could port this. The only thing is the HDMI. We will need a way to get around that. So my question is, could we port this?
I don't see how this is possible without some kind of video output from the device. The only other alternative is VNC to the device (which defeats the entire purpose of this).

I thought the micro-usb slot was an MHL slot, which means we just need a cable that is MHL compatible.
Other than that, I don't know why not. It would give a dev something to do

I was thinking the same. That's not it's intentions, but I've seen some of these developers do more amazing things than make that work
If anyone wants to attempt this I'll gladly beta test.
The OP in the EVO forums said if there were enough interest he would assist on porting it over.
"I will be handling port requests through my website. If there is enough demand and the device can support it, I will work with developers to get this ported to your device. Start a thread in your respective device's forum to see if there is enough demand and refer them to this thread and the website for details.
To make things easier you device needs the following:
The ability to run a CyanogenMod 7 ROM
High resolution video out (HDMI preferred for ease of porting) Lokifish Marz"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038840
1) So the questions are is there enough support!?
2) Is our device similar enough to do this?
Put me down for this!!!

That would be fantastic. I could go to customers houses and do their contracts right infront of them instead of @ the office.
This would be cool, maybe even a good reason to get the HTC dock when it comes out. If we can get a HDMI hook up working I would give this a try even with out the dock.

ThunderBolt has the same MHL jack as the EVO 3D/Sensation, but it requires the software to use it, we may get that support in the Gingerbread update.
The only reason its not one of the specs or a known feature is because of this missing software support.
When the ThunderBolt was initially leaked on the Verizon site before launch, the developer site leaked all the details about what accessories it would support and an "HDMI adapter" was listed, and that said adapter is the microUSB to HDMI cable, which will also charge the phone via HDMI.
Now you know why HTC didn't have a native HDMI port, because its actually the USB jack
This would be fantastic, I wish someone would work on it but I am not sure if it is possible.

Transformer Love Thread

Not sure if we have had one of these yet, but i would love to hear from the people who got a proper (or close to proper) prime.
Has it lived up to your expectations? Whats your fave thing about it? was it worth your green backs?

agree.. i love my prime.. its the best android tablet out there right now. the build is the best out of any tablet.
the honeycomb bugs are still there, they are 10x better with the quad core and less noticeable. all comes down to ICS.
if was to sit in my closet with the lights off while my tab boots i could see a light bleed, good thing i don't use my tablet ever in the closet with my lights off. so i'm good with that.
Had the original Transformer as well as a whole host of other tablets. I still say this concept of the detachable hard dock is the most productive I've ever had. The added battery life and a mouse make it feel like an honest laptop replacement. In terms of comparing the new and old Prime, the new one has some obvious advantages in terms of size I really like the weight of it. I do agree with those who said it is a little harder to hold, the metal makes it a little more slick. When I have been using it as a reading tablet for a period of time it does matter
Flaws... well, my GPS doesn't work. I don't know that I care, but since I paid for it I want it to work. Since I have the Galaxy Nexus I realy like ICS, so I hope like hell we get it soon. THe camera facing you isn't great, but oh well. And docked it is definately top heavy and prone to tip. They should have distributed the weight a little more evenly.
Do I like it a lot? Yes! Do I love it? Not yet, but I have a feeling I will
Finally got mine and so far, I'm loving it. Love the weight. Zippy, no lag. GPS doesn't work, but I'm not terribly concerned with that at the moment. Everyone here at work is Ohhh-ing and Ahhh-ing.
My biggest gripe right now is that "everything" seems to be backordered. Waiting for a case and the dock.

I love everything about the TP. I've seen no lag whatsoever. The games look awesome. I plugged in the Hdmi cable and played shadowgun on my plasma tv and it looked great. The bluetooth controller from Gamestop is pretty slick also. I personally think it flies on the Internet. Page transitions are very fluid. I've read some negative comments about it's speaker but the one that it does have sounds great.

Mine is nearly flawless, and I am glad I made my purchase decision. The very few issues I have with it are due to apps stability.

that's not ironic, and I dont have any bias towards the Prime as I don't have mine yet (will by next Tuesday) so I can't judge the device negatively or positively.
But ever since I saw that word posted on this board I couldn't help but see how frequently many here are actively looking for information to fit their needs. Its an easy way to set yourself up for disappointment at worst, or be pleasantly surprised if underestimate it.

actually this thread doesn't. its more of the majority of negative threads/comments being thrown around lately. based on that definition from wiki. this tread is good and needed although there's a similar one called the positive transformer thread.
to the OP, I think from my various posts, lol, you can see that I love my device. it has been performing great and has no issues I've noticed, so far. this is way better than my Ipad all around. can't wait till developement starts, ICS, and more tegra3 games being released. this purchase was more than worth the money. I'm so glad that I didn't let the negativity, before and after release, deter me away from this device. especially since its performing so well for me right now. definitely is the best tablet out now, by far and will more than likely be that way for at least the next 4-6 months.

if you want a great volume boost to the already great sound get volume+. there's a thread on it in themes and apps section. I bit the bullet and got it last night. I confirmed the major increase in volume level with a decibel reader. it consistently showed increase in volume/decibels with speaker mod on. it ridiculous how much more louder and bass output this thing has now. and the sound was already great before. this just makes it even better. check out the thread.
lol theres a few haters on this thread eh? i just don't get why people say anything, it doesn't affect you. I guess they want to show off there e-peen.

so i'm almost embarrassed to ask this, but I've been all over the asus vip site and i can't really figure out how to apply for a warrenty fix.

Sign up at Asus.com and register your prime. Then on the left of the screen will be a list of options and links... among them about 2/3 the way down you should see "application for GPS extension kit" or something very similar.

[Q] Charging Port Issue

Yesterday when I tried to plug in my Streak to charge I noticed that the cable didn't seem to go in properly. After looking at the port it seems that a pin is bent.
Has anyone had any luck bending one back? Also, is there a schematic available that will tell me what pin does what?
Thanks.

Yeah, I did that bit. Thanks for being helpful.
Well, if you searched, you didn't search hard enough because this has been brought up before. However, it should be possible to bend the bent pin back into alignment with the rest of the pins. But you'll need a steady hand and a tool like a precision screwdriver to bend the pin with.
As for the schematic, I can't help you there.
Solution.
Hi,
Last year when my Streak's port broken I searched a lot about it. I remember was find a schematic but can't find it no again.
But there is good news for you and everyone who has the same problem.
You can buy a replacement Charging Port from ebay. It's been 1 year from my Streak's charging port broken. It was so expensive. But now, you can find about USD 3-5 from ebay.
Here is an search link from ebay about it.
I hoppe it's helpfull.
Oh.. Because of I've never send a post before I can't able to send link within the post. You can search on ebay as "streak charging connector"

And now you see why I posted.
Yet your main issue is a bent pin, not the pinout. Bent pins have been brought up on the forum before, thus you didn't search too hard. As for the pinout, no one has posted one, however posting one isn't necessary since the port is supposedly a standard interface (mini PDMI?). Something that you would have found had you searched harder, because it was discussed.
Attitudes like this are the reason why people see this community as a cesspool of elitist snobs. The only post that wasn't rude and condescending came from someone who hadn't posted before.
Yes, I searched. No I didn't see anything. So I posted. Get over it.

I am wondering if the charging port on the dell streak 5 is compatible with the dell streak 7, I looked up the specs....all I could find is that both the 5 and the 7 use proprietary 30-pin interface/charging ports, and that the charging cable for the 2 units are the same, but I am somehow sure that there must be a reason ebay doesn't list the oem replacement part for both the 5 and the 7, but is it something that can be worked around? If this has already been addressed please forgive me....I've gone buggy trying to find the answer!!

My brother has one and i love it. cant beat that price for one of the most powerful tablets on the market now.
Pros:
Hardware
Google updates
$$$
Cons:
No expandable memory. He has the 8gb from launch and it cant hold that much. he blew through the 8gb fast and is now trying to play catch up when downloading new games.
If you plan on getting one. Please get the 32gb. I know people will argue saying its not needed if you're just going to browse or watch a couple of videos. But it happens to fill up quickly and you cant change your mind. lol
U love mine kindda p.o. about buying one before the price dropped lol but get one it is worth it

Anyway, anyone here have an N7 and can give some personal experience pros/cons?
Looking to pick one up for X-mas. Will mainly be used by my wife and myself for browsing, watching vids, e-books. Anyone have a blue tooth keyboard attached that they recommend?
Feel free to add any additional info that you think a perspective buyer may be interested to know.
Thanks everyone!:good:

I love mine, just got it last week. my girlfriend has her settings and i have mine, it's awesome. i use a logitech bluetooth keyboard and google drive during school to take notes. the keyboard pairs easily and i experience little to no lag while using it. i can download my books on there too and boom, that all i have to bring. the keyboard comes with a case that transforms into a stand for the tablet when taking notes.. i linked it below, it's also available at best buy(where i got mine). good luck, it's definitely a good buy. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-920-...words=logitech+bluetooth+keyboard+for+android
I absolutely love my N7 and I wasn't expecting to enjoy it so much. Feel free to PM me with any questions you have. If you're doing research in the N7 sections, in the past it's been mostly trolls and morons who post in general but not development, so at the very least find someone who is active in both sections.

I have the 32gb version and I am very happy with it. I take mine out in the field with me and have it tethered it to my Rezound which is great for my daily use. If you are flasher then I would suggest taking a look at the Nexus 7 forums, some really nice Roms.
It is great for what it is, just don't have false expectations. Not to be combative but if she plans on doing the things you mentioned extra memory is not needed. I am a fairly heavy user and haven't even looked to see how much of my 16gb I have used.
Con: as a flasher I get kind of annoyed with all of the updates. bc so many updates the roms never really smooth out. Everytime I think it's set up great there is a new update. (first time with a nexus so maybe just annoyed with change).
I have an 8gb one with an OTG cable. I hook up my 16gb card to it. I also stream my music and movies from my server. Bought the OTG cable on Amazon for $.70.

I've had one since release ans I love it. Only con I can see is that there is no expandable memory options however the device holds up really nice. I have a Bluetooth keyboard for it as well, I got it from Motorola off of Amazon and haven't looked back I also have a treegloo case for it however I'm not sure I would recommend it because as of late it has been starting to break down even though I haven't abused it in the slightest

Well, it will be a Merry Christmas in my household......I picked up a 32gb last night!!
All i did was charge it a bit and turn it on to make sure it was working properly and immediately put it back in the box. Mainly bc my wife and myself are dorks and want to wait til christmas morning to officially open it :silly:
Now I am accessory shopping, need a nice case and maybe a stylus. I messed around with the display model a bit, and, with an iPad mini. Mini is wider, thinner and a bit lighter. And the thinness and lighjtness is where the comparison stops for me. The screen on the Nexus absolutely blows the mini out of the water. I didn't get too in depth using them, but I didnt need to. The screen comparison blew me away. I couldn't get over it.
Can't wait to hack away Christamas morning!:laugh:
Good choice:thumbup:

Don't have time to read through the entire thread to see what everyone is saying, BUT if you are considering getting one then you definitely should. I don't even know where to start, but its perfect in every way. Very brief breakdown.
Pros: the perfect size, battery life is great, ROM development is plentiful, the device itself is really fast(running aokp 4.2.1) , lots of options for cases, and much more.
Cons: None!
I originally got it for when I run on my treadmill in the basement to watch Netflix and downloaded TV shows. Now after having it for a month I bring the thing with me almost everywhere. Best $250 I've spent in a long time.

Also, not sure what style of case you're looking for, but I went with this one. I love it. Perfect mix between class and protection. Can't beat the price either.
