Question about cracked screens while docked - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I was just curious if the cracked screen issue while using the dock is still going on or was it fixed in a recent revision. I really have been wanting to get the dock but the threads I've read have been keeping me back. I have a c4 prime.

I am also wondering this. It seems that it was a production problem so hopefully Asus fixed the problem

Thats what it seems like to me because the threads have been pretty much dead and im sure there would be plenty of people complaining if they were still cracking.

Have him contact Asus and keep complaining till they fix it free of charge or give a refund. Apparently they outsource their rma services and they are just bad. If they say its user damage keep pushing because its clearly a manufacturing defect.

New Prime announced, so it's time to new petition to Asus!

Hi friends
The time has come for the revolution. In connection with the way the Asus treats its customers I think we should start a revolution and a massive public campaign on the back cover replacement programme or any other solution to the problem of weak WiFi and/or GPS in Transformer Prime. The Internet is the power they are afraid of.
Asus' President would be very interested in the situation. He would like to know the way his company treats its customers.
We have to let him know... We have to make a change

Negative. It's a 10.1-incher with NVIDIA's Tegra 3 within (1.3GHz quad-core Cortex A9)
You mean the 7" tablet aimed at different market? Yep, let's petition every living thing! Occupy Asus! Torches and pitchforks!
I guess you missed this whole ongoing thread "Asus Transformer Prime TF700T official with 1920 x 1200 res and new design to improve"

From slash gear, it appears that the only changes are
-1080p
-2mp camera instead of 1.3
-changed back plate
I already got really good, constant wifi connection
My BT works fine with my Game pad and my Galaxy Note
I'm own phone, there's no need for a GPS
1080p = More battery drain for something that only Prime users will notice the diff.

Did you not check before posting this all over the forum? Where did you get the idea it was a Qualcomm chip?
In order for this to have any change of success, we should work out possible solutions first.
Noone is helped with just bashing their facebook walls.
Let's collect some opinions and options for ASUS.

Asus MO
Asus TF Prime announced
Ppl preorder
huge QC issues
Preorders canceled and delayed
device arrives
Problems didnt go away
Asus Solution?
Make new device, sell 100$ more expensive, leave ppl who bought TF prime hanging like a nutsack
Problem?
Here is a better link.

This is not a 7 inch version this is a 10.1. If you look at the back it is the exact one we need to make the prime work. So my opinion is they knew that aluminum was flawed but decided to leave it on. Then release this to fix it. While everyone wasted their hard earned money so they could be the first tegra 3 on the market.
They should upgrade us for free to the new one. Also it is still puzzling why the tf101 is going for the same price as before the prime came out.

No i mean new 10 incher shown at CES, beta tested by us using TF201. That's not the way they should do their business. I love my TF201 and I'm not going to sell it. But I do not like to be treated like a retard.

It wont be out unit Q2 (may/June), so save your money now, continue to use the prime and sell it in June and buy the new one.

Should I return my note?

I started to watch a video on my note and I've also noticed it also does this on the browser sometimes. The screen is flickering and creates lines. It only does it on one side of the screen. You think I should exchange it out before the 30 days?

if you can exchange it you might as well
Exchanging it will not fix it. I am actually shocked more have not reported seeing this. Both the skyrocket and note have the issue.
Videos you take with the phone will do it as well.
No tweaking or exchanging will fix this. I have even tried a slew of video apps...they all do it so far

Exchanging it will fix it. I've never seen it on mine and I've watched hours of video on it already. It might be a widespread issue, but clearly not ALL the devices have the problem.
I think I'm going to return it then tomorrow then.

These are totally 2 different category of devices.
U cannot buy one for the other.
I dont want to start an apple android war but
1. ipad is not pocketable.
2. No phone fn
3. Pen stylus no possible ( u can use a capacitive stylus)
If apple came out with a 5 inch phone , i would galdly buy it.
jail broken ios can be customized very much.
Edit : back to topic.
If u could post a video we could be of more help
I have watched hours of netflix on my note and have had no such problem at all with it.

I've experienced the same issues but only on the browser when I watch anime. Regular videos and netflix or YouTube doesn't cause the same problem. Also thinking whether I should exchange?

Just go to nowinstock.net
It was easy to find my second prime for my wife.
Took a day of looking and I got an email for tiger direct having them in stock.
You dont have to sign up tho.. just go and click the transformer prime tracker they already have set up.

Amazing. Was only in stock for about 2 hours. Why is everyone still buying these when there clearly is a problem with the Wifi/BT system? I don't get it.
San Rafael CA Best Buy has a few TFP and docks in stock right now. Just got to ask them to dig as they are mixed in with the original Transformers.

Looks like it's only for use with the tablet, not in conjunction with the dock.

You'd also need special drivers for it to support wifi i guess.
I actually like the design, thought it would get alot worse and i think i'll take one But they could have made another port on the back side somehow, so you could plug in the charging cable while the dongle is attached.

Cool thanks for link and pictures. Maybe this dongle will improve WIFI for some as well.
Well maybe this is why they wont send my RMA back they were waiting on the dongle because according to the website its been done for weeks now but they wont mail it to me and it went in for wifi and gps problems. maybe now the they will send it BACK!!
Great Article!
MIND OVER MATTER
IMHO it looks like crap...totally ruins the sleek lines of the TFP. Ill take one, but I don't see myself bothering to slap this thing on much. Would have preferred a new backplate.
Looks better than I thought it would, thanks for sharing

kind of kills the point in a transformer that can't transform after using the GPS dongle
I expect a newer case with this dongle incorporated into the design. I also hope there is a possibility of a pass thru charging port.
P.S. is Asus just giving us TFP owners this for nothing? Is there a mailing list out that we have to sign up to get it?

More information will be posted in the "Unofficial ASUS" sticky tomorrow (4/16), and a sign-up form will be available then. It's going to be free, and available to every Prime owner (at least in the US, but probably worldwide).
Lots of threads on the topic, including that main one.
Looks... beefy? Passthrough charging is almost necessary. Thats my biggest hope atm. Looks like it will fit in the mounts that are out there, too.

I'm thinking I might pass unless I sell the Prime.

Only time will tell. Not a satisfying answer, but there's no definitive answer. I mean, jelly bean hasn't even been officially announced yet, right? ASUS has a better track record than most, so within three months of the source release may be a good guess. I would definitely put my money on a custom ROM getting jelly bean before an official OTA update, though.
