ASUS Fixed my Prime - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I know there has been quite a few of you that have had issues with ASUS RMA Process. I on the other hand have had a very good experience ASUS RMA Process. I was having a black screen with color lines flashing on the screen. The Prime was total unresponsive. I called and was issued a RMA Number with instructions on what to do. They paid for the next day shipping to their repair facility. A week later (including the weekend) the prime was fixed and a few days later my unit was shipped out to me. I do have to say I am very impressed how fast they got my unit fixed. They replaced the screen. Since I received my Prime, I have only had one issues with some lines appearing on the left side of the screen. I restarted the Prime and no more lines.
I believe that if you keep calm and treat the rep with respect, they will work with you. I hope you all have the same experience I have had.

Has anyone got a defective free Prime yet?

Serious Question, This week I'm getting my 6th and 7th Prime I have went through 5 Primes everyone of them has had issues, other than GPS. I don't really care about GPS, I have a 4.5 inch screen on my phone, and it works fine for GPS. I can deal with a GPS issue. I'm not saying that is the case for everyone especially the early adapters, that bought it for intended use of GPS.
Has the Prime even made it off the shelf without a problem? I have had to return everyone that I have received so far because of really weak WIFI issues or WIFI and Blue-tooth together made my WIFI useless. Luckily I haven't had the rebooting problem yet, I did have to shut it down a couple times because the screen just started going crazy out of nowhere.
These are the Last 2 I will take a chance on, I will wait for the new lenovo or Acer or even the 300 or 700 if these fail its over goodbye Prime have a nice life. Hopefully someday someone will fix you, and turn you into the beast you could be. If someone was really good at modding they could make a lot of money from the community here.
So basically in all seriousness, I wanted to know how many people have actually got a defective free Prime? Be honest!
Well, I only got one Prime, and I returned it becaouse of screen artifacts and a bright pixel. I hope the next will be ok, but since I returned 5 Iconia Tab A501 in the past due to pixel problems... I won't hold my hopes high.

I got two Prime, and 1 Dock.
One prime for me, one for my younger brother.
Both our prime are fine, except for weak GPS, no screen bleed, Good Wifi(As good as my Asus netbook, and my brother's alienware notebook)
We ordered from Bestbuy if that helps.
There is a topic with poll, 400+ people are satasified with their device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491431
I've had my Prime since Monday - serial number starts C1. The only problem i've had so far was removing the micro-sd spacer.
(If your micro-sd port is not set square to the primes left hand edge the spacer will rest on the inner edge of the case surrounding the port. Solution - use an electric style screwdriver with a blunt end to press down in one corner and angle out the spacer after activating the spring mechanism.)
Wifi seems better than my HTC Desire, but I haven't checked this with bt.
Nor have I checked the GPS.
No bad pixels.
No light bleed. Though I haven't looked hard!
Browser works fine with good streaming and download speed. (to my untrained eye.)
Charged once for about 5 hours whilst using the Prime attached to the dock, which gave me approx 10 hours of use, including gaming, video, music, browsing and setting up, widgets, apps, preferences, etc before both batteries were fully drained.
Charged it overnight last night and can report 100% charge to both batpacks.
I am finding my feet in ICS as my Desire still runs on v2.2 Their is much more control here, although the layout is familliar it feels like breaking in a new pair of brogues. It will be comfortable eventually! I guess HTC's sensui has a bit to do with the slightly alien feeling I am experiencing on the Prime.
"Touch formica desk" I can declare myself satisfied with an excellent and fully working, problem-free Asus Transformer Prime in glorious Amethyst Grey.
note to self - I must check out the GPS and search for lightbleeds.
Got one prime in January and its been perfect for me ever since. There are some software issues that could be worked out but i'm sure that will come. I dont even have a car so gps? meh.
btw just did my powerpoint presentation yesterday with the prime. It didnt let me down and it went really well. Its just that more subtle if you just have a tablet lying there imho.
Third time luck for me.
The first one had no HDMI output and bad light bleed.
The second had a very yellow screen which eventually stopped working.
I've had the third for a week now and I've had no problems. Everything is perfect.
yup!
I went through 10 Primes total to get a good one. Even so the wifi range is subpar.
At this point I would return the Prime and get a new iPad 3rd gen.

had my first one since 12/22. one of the earliest batches. All it took was the first one for me crazy how some go thru multiple ones.
My Prime was neither defective, nor free.
All seriousness, first Prime, received on 12/21/11, and I've never had any issues.
I'm a serious android freak and have never noticed light bleeds or pixel problems on any of them. Maybe its because I don't look for them idk. If I knew what they looked like I'd probably see one or both on all of my devices (5 tablets and my phone) because I'm mental and have major ocd. So whoever replies to this don't fill me in. Thanks!
Better yet I won't come back.

I have my first prime still. I bought in on Dec 23rd. The last update seems to have fixed my in and out wifi problem. So other than GPS, not working that great, I would have to say its perfect. I do love the Prime.
Defect-free, no problems as of yet. I've had since mid-January.
"Has anyone got a defective free Prime yet?"
I had to pay for mine!
No GPS (which bugs me but isn't really vital) but everything else is perfect and always has been.
No bleed. No dead pixels. OK WiFi. Can stream video & use BT headphones
My only slight issue is the Ally case where the power cord plugs in, has bent very slightly. No idea why or how.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
Mine is perfect pretty much.
sometimes it seems like the wifi is slightly weaker - but I think its a placebo effect because I'm waiting for it to mess up.
Don't really use my gps but the 3 or 4 times ive fired up google maps it was right on the dot.
no light bleeds.
Got mine on December 30th and has been perfect since. The one time o tested GPS I got fixes and everything, have not used it since but as soon as I do need it for something I will definitely report how it goes, though who knows when that will be as in over two months I have yet to actually need it for a single thing. My wifi is just fine and has worked perfectly in a plethora of places. I have yet to have a place where I can connect and not been able to.
I can detail the rest but would rather not. My prime has been perfect for me and defect free. I don't consider the tiny amount of light bleed I have in the bottom left corner a defect. I can only see it during bootup which is only during is updates as otherwise I never restart. It is absolutely 100% invisible during all normal usebi have put it through in time of my ownership.
So yeah, first prime and defect free.
My first prime ordered on December 26th the camera did not work, everything else was great. Second prime no issues whatsoever.
1st Prime here- C1. No issues at all, besides GPS. Solved that with Bluetooth2GPS & my Nexus. Was worth every penny to me so far perfect compliment to my phone

LCD Mura

Has anyone else experienced "LCD mura" with their Primes, and if so, has the issue gotten any worse since you noticed it? LCD mura looks similar to light bleed, but not in corners of the screen. Rather, it is a small blotch/"bright spot" appearing anywhere on the screen. I have one such problem area that showed up after owning the Prime for about a month. It hasn't gotten any worse, but it's annoying on white backgrounds. I'm wondering how common of a problem this is. A Google search shows that it's a somewhat regular occurrence on cheaper LCD screens.
Ohhh, so *that's* what that is. I've had if for a while in one spot. Only noticeable on white backgrounds.
Yes had two such areas on my TF201. Had the sreen replaced under warranty.

What was the turnaround on the replacement? I have about 5-6 of those "white spots" now...
Have the spots come back after it was fixed?
My prime had 7 bright pixels!
They developed 2 months after I bought them..and kept increasing with time. These pixels will not go away with pixel fixer apps either.
Have sent my tablet for an RMA to get the LCD replaced. Fingers-crossed.

Sure, will keep the thread updated when i get it back. Only 5 days (3 business days) so far. RMA On "Waiting-[WB5] Wait for Repair\Test\Aging" status.
had 2 on mine, they didn't get bigger or anything. thought i could live with it and decided that since every time I saw it I was pissed so sent it in for RMA. Sent in March 26th (they received it) and was returned April 8th back in my hands. SOOOOO Happy I did I now feel like this is the tablet I should have always had. Also my time may have been extended by also getting bt/wifi fixed (well partially fixed, usable now)

I guess I had this on my TF101, A few white spots showed up, I sent it in for RMA, it came back and looked fine (they said they replaced the screen) but after a few months the white spots came back almost in the same exact spot. I sent it in for RMA a second time, this time they flagged it as CID (customer induced damage) I emailed Hai, and *****ed and complained saying they fixed it the first time and didnt flag it as CID, so why are they flagging it this time. The next day I got an email from Hai saying it was taken care of and was no longer considered CID, and was being repaired.. So it does seem the white spots return in some cases
I had one of these on my screen. LCD replaced in a day. But then there were other issues like them not connecting the screen properly so only half the touch would register. Ended up getting a refund.
Just noticed my second LCD panel has a developed light 5mm mura spot.
Not as bad as last time.
Same area as last time. Lower left corner.
Would be interested to hear where other's have found their mura spots.
I have a couple on my prime, towards the bottom of the screen in landscape - one is about 3mm by 2 mm the other about half that size - they do grate on your nerves once you can see them, especially as so much of what I do on my prime (kindle, email, word-processing, surfing the web) is against a white background. I've emailed ASUS and am looking into a RMA.
I had the same problem, right in the center of the screen, one bigger spot and two smaller.
Sent my Prime to RMA a month ago, still waiting for it. Seems that he replacement screen is not so easy to find, in Europe.
BTW, they not considered it CID, and they will repair it under warranty.
Update on my prime's RMA
My tablet is still in WB5 state for an RMA to fix 7 such bright spots. In multiple conversations with CSRs it was explained that other issues (unspecified) were detected after the repair, and the tablet is now waiting for some special components to be repaired.
I am still within 10-14 business days to repair period, so the RMA can not be esclated yet.
I regret having sent my tablet for LCD replacement. Will kepp posting any updates that I have.
I recall someone mentioning the below statement in some other forum...
"I hate apple. But atleast their Sh**t works and they support it"
How true!
FYI - I sent it to TEXAS repair center.
WTF! Just noticed a mura starting to form.....ughh every time I am happy with my prime I find something that P***es me off with it. I really want to love this tablet. I feel like I am prime-bipolar. Some days I am prime-manic and some days I am prime-depressed. /Sigh Asus why do you toy with my electronic emotions?

I'm noticing a 3rd spot develop on mine - begun the RMA process. I'm going to brace my self to be without my prime for at least a month. (I survived without it for 40 years, I'm sure I can go a month...)
i had spots on my first prime (BCOK) but exchanged due to GPS (also had haptic feedback issue too).
Second prime (c10) has a couple spots in landscape about an inch from the bottom of the screen near the center. I have "kept an eye on it" as far as noticing it only when I'm really on a white background or anything. I usually use it for reading and/or taking notes on PDFs so I surprisingly haven't been bothered by it AT ALL. I actually forgot they were there until last week.
Anyways, if it gets any bigger or I get more spots, I'll send it in over the summer...
i have a tiny 2mm area which is really white, when i have a whitish background. It is imposibble to tell though when i have other colours on the screen. My tablets serial number starts with a B so it was one of the earlier ones. It just randomly happened one day but its not that big of an issue
i had 2, if in landscape they were just off center down and left, and a little further down and left like middle of lower left quadrant was the big 5-7mm one that really bothered me. Decided to eventually send it in they received unit march 26 was back in my hands april 13th ish (can't remember) i believe
I don't know if this is my problem or not -- When I have a black/dark screen, I can see two areas that are whiter than the rest of the screen. It's not individual pixels but splotches. I do not notice it on white or any other color background? I haven't decided if I can live with it yet or not - still hoping it will just go away! If this isn't LCD Mura, what would you call it?

White spot

Do any of you guys have white spot on your prime? Im not trying to be a pain in the ass but i paid a good amount of cash for it and was told about a white spot on lower area of tablet lol here are some pics the spot is easy to see
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
I have this too, though in a different spot. It only occurs when the screen is white, or close to white. I'm not sure what the problem is or if there is a fix.
I had the same thing. Ended up sending it in for RMA and getting it fixed song with other things.. They replaced the screen and all is well.
Oh ok so i can send it in to get fixed?

It tooks ages to be repaired, but it will be repaired under warranty, so, I think, you can send it without any money loss (hopefully).
ok great thanks for the info so who do i have to talk to to get this shipped out like what nuber do i call or who do i email?
So im sending it in to see what they can do to fix it wish my tablet luck lol

my prime also has this spot. At least Asus is quite consistent with its failings too.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
I sent mine in for the same thing. Was received March 26th, no update called in on 8th business day and was "escalated" so the RMA would show status. On April 5th updated to "repairing". Still hadn't heard anything since that so I called again today, they said since it was received on the 26th (even though RMA logged it as received April 5th so they look like they fixed it quicker) and I had proof with FedEx tracking # they escalated repair asking them to "expedite". We'll see how long "expedited" repair takes. Long story short for the same problem so far 2 weeks at facility and counting but yes it's a warranty repair.
update: received shipping notification today. Point of the story, don't let them walk all over you keep up on the repair process. I'll let you know if they fixed it and what they say they had to repair.
Its called LCD Mura. Its caused by a slightly thinner spot in the LCD display causing the backlight to be slightly brighter at that sport. i had it on 2 new primes and they both went straight back for a replacement...
off screen white spots
[ i m facing some strange issue in my canvad hd...i seen some white dots on screen during charging in off mode..when cell is not on...the charging image shows..in just above i seen white dots...i thought it dead pixel...but when i on my cell ..this dots gone...no dots there...only in off mode charging...they shows..what is this..ny idea...

C3 Serial - Dead Pixel and Light Bleed Issues from Gamestop Asus Primes?

Hey guys, I love the tablet but I am having some serious bad luck lately. Im in Houston and bought a Prime from Gamestop. They told me theres only two Gamestops in South Houston that sell them and both are about 45 minutes to an hour away from my house. So the first one I bought two days ago had a tiny scratch and dead pixels outta the box. I went yesterday to the second gamestop cuz it was 15 minutes closer to return it and after a long drive I had it replaced without a hassle from the manager at gamestop because i had the receipt. She told me that I was the first to ever return the tablet because of a defect and told me I shouldnt worry too much about having to replace them in the future. So I get home and power it on and this one has another dead pixel in a different location and bad light bleed on the right side which the other didnt have and it also had a bunch of force closes popping up on the screen. Both are the latest C3 serial. Im disappointed and going crazy over here guys. Are there that many defective tablets or is my luck just horrible? Gas is expensive these days too, and Im dreading having to go back there again tomorrow and exchange it. Sorry I guess this was more of a rant than anything, but hopefully the third times the charm...
Sucks to hear man. Seems like the C3 is just like all the others no different, you're not the first to post about issues with theirs, lightbleed and wifi
I've owned 2 gamestop primes, not a problem from either of them really. Exchanged my first one (perfect unit) after unlocking the bootloader for one still under OEM warranty. The one I exchanged it for works great - there's a tiny smidgen of bleed in the top right corner, but you really have to search to see it and that's in a dark room.
I'm in Tampa, Florida.
Keep in mind IPS panels are prone to backlight bleeds. When I returned like 4 tf101s because of backlight bleeds, best buy was practically laughing at me.

That's not my fault. It's gamestop's fault for accepting it, its asus's fault for voiding warranty and reselling it with a warranty, and it's the buyers fault for gambling their cash on refurbished devices.
Instead of cracking down on exchanges they could hire employee's that know the products they're selling.
I got mine from Gamestop and only have a tiny amount of bleed in the upper right corner but it's hardly noticeable. If I'm not mistaken, Gamestop opens them, adds their games and apps and then seals them back up so it's possible whoever is doing that is less than careful with them.
Bought mine (C3) from Gamestop today and either I have no significant light bleed, it's not enough to bother me, or I simply don't know what to look for. I saw a photo of someone else's TF light bleed in another thread and mine's nothing like that.

I'm not sure if the manager would let you do this, but if you can:
Unbox the ATP in front of the manager and test it out before ringing it up. Might save you the trouble of having to drive back and forth. Explain your situation regarding the defective products that you've had the misfortune to come across, and hopefully they will let you test it out (most likely supervised if so).

Whoo after three primes i finally got a good one same serial number

Help please! Very frustrated with RMA

So I sent my tablet in on 4/8th and it was received by asus on the 12th according to the Fedex tracking, but shows the 13th. Thats fine a day to register it...
I waited 14 business days, called to have it escalated, they told me someone was going to call me in 24-48 hours. Ok i patiently waited, 48 hours passed no contact via email nor phone.
I called again, this time I spoke to a supervisor he assured me that an email was sent to the tech center, and I would have to wait 24-48 hours for them to contact me. OK I waited patiently again since a supervisor assured me...
Now today, 48 hours have passed, I contacted them again, they said theres nothing they can do but wait 48 hours and if no one contacts me then call back...
it seems like i'm giving the runaround waiting 2 days then 2 days then 2 days...
I tried to contact Gary Key via PM and Email but he hasnt contacted me back over 2 weeks, same with Hai Trat...
Any suggestions? I'm thinking to file a BBB complaint and go to small claims court...
Yeah, Asus support has pretty much guaranteed they are now on my no buy list...
Tried to register my Asus (open box) and it was already registered. They keep telling me they will delete the info so I can register it and get the dongle, but every time I try it says serial number already registered.
It's like at least a week between each reply too, and in poor English. Not impressed. Good luck on your RMA!
More and more horror stories. Not surprised.
It's really a sh*t show over at Asus.
People should only RMA their tablet if there are major problems with the tablet. Not just things like dead pixels, random restarts or weak wi-fi. Not worth the risk.

honestly it's not ASUS service so to speak that is bad, its is their contracted repair centers. Problem is since they contract out they don't have any idea as to the inner workings of the repair centers. So when we call all they can do is send them emails and hope they respond. I do agree this is still not acceptable and they need to really rethink how they contract/who they contract out.

Agreed, but since it was their choice of contracted repair centers, I believe the blame is on them... A huge company like Asus ...contracting 3rd rate repair centers? Really shows how much they care about their customers TBH. There's no way in hell I would purchase another Asus product in the future, even if they were the only company to have a keyboard dock. It is not worth the hassle, in the case of something going wrong with the product and waiting a whole month to get it back. IMHO.
Waiting-[WF4] Wait for Customer Confirmation-CID\OOW 2012/04/06
One month at this stage.. Two months total.. I used the tablet for two weeks, don't even remember how it looks like anymore.. Consumer advisors etc. have contacted asus and nothing happens. They refuse to repair it in/out of warranty, they refuse return my money.. Or in fact, they do not directly refuse, they just promise to "look into it"

It's now almost 3 month for me. One one my primes had a broken glass, I paid for it, but so far I only get different answers, from is ready to be shipped to no spare parts or it goes out tomorrow. I contacted now my lawyer.
Definitely the last time I bought something with an Asus Label on it.
Mine went into the Europe centre (Slapanice, CzR)on 26th April with screen mura - says it's ready for shipping today, exactly 14 days. If it is back within the week that won't have been too bad; though it has been a very frustrating due to the lack of information bout the whole process that's available from the RMA progress site and the fact that the support email team have no access to what's going on in the repair centre, but moreover because of my own tendency to check on the status 5 times a day. Of course it's still not in my hands yet...

Well just a quick update, I got my tablet back today, and holy **** I am so lucky I had a invisible shield for my backplate, because there is A WHOLE ****LOAD of scuff marks on the back......and the metal part near the charging port was bent but I fixed it by pushing it back... and it seems like I have more light bleed than before. There was only a little bit of light bleed on the top right corner when i sent it in, now theres light bleed on the bottom right and bottom side......grr. oh well, lesson learned. never buy anything Asus no more.

Lol, they may have left a rubber stopper between the screen and battery again
Ridiculous, I almost want to contact the BBB on the repair centers doing the work, not ASUS
