Hi,
I purchased the TG01 in February and I have lost my temper with it because it's so horrible, but I know there are a few developers out there looking for a real device to work with, so I thought I'd sell it.
I'm looking for anything over £65, It's in good working order with a few scratches on the screen and it's generally in OK condition, but the speaker is quite quiet.
If you're interested please reply to this thread.
Thanks
PS, I will consider swapping phones if you want

Hold that thought, we might be able to buy it from you for the Android project if we can raise the money. £65 shouldnt be too difficult to raise!
Please dont sell it before speaking to us about it.
I'm in Blackburn Lancashire, whereabouts are you?

.. is there an Android TG-01 developer fund - I'll contribute if you're able to buy a cheap TG-01
i'll contribuite too..
I have posted in the Android discussion thread and Alex has kindly offered to hold the donations:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=672234&page=25
decide between yourselves if you will and start a donations thread and get the money rolling. Someone needs to pm tjcooper17 to ask him if hes still got it and whether he's happy to wait until the money is raised.
I'll ask dzo (or any developer users recommend with a track record for Android development) once we have confirmation that the purchase is going to happen.
Best of luck
tjcooper17 can you post some pics of the device since you say it has some scratches and also what comes with the phone, is the box, charger and everything with it and lastly is it sim locked to orange or unlocked?
Hi guys,
I'm in Shaftesbury, Dorset. The device is locked to Orange, I'll post some pictures in just a minute and I'll send it with everything I got in the box:
Phone
Charger
Manuals
USB to PC Lead
CD Drivers
I should be able to get you the device including delivery for £70 if that's OK.
Pictures in just a second
I'm having real trouble uploading the pictures at the moment, is there an email address i can send them to?

@tjcooper17:
What about making the pictures smaller?
Than you could place them here at xda as an attachment on your next post.
Sorry to butt in on this thread! We have a donation thread for TG01 Android development :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=804051
.. and a direct link to PayPal :
https://www.paypal.com/uk/cgi-bin/w...63663d3faee8dc60d77e6184470d51976060a4ab6ee74
.. so far, £15 has been donated
Regards,
Alex.
OK I've compressed them quite a bit, didn't realise how big they were.
thanks for the pics.
The thread for the donations has been closed down by mods.. I'll pm the mod on how we can do this without collecting money on here. The only other way I can think of is if enough people pledge to put money towards the phone, then we donate to you directly.
Leave it with me.

It appears that the word donations is contentious.
So if we want to do this, the best thing is everyone PLEDGES what they are willing to put towards a device on this thread, once we have enough money and a developer who wants to help, we can pay tjcooper17 someway and get him to send the device to the developer.
Sorry about the mess, I guess these things are there to protect xda users from fraudulent transactions so its probably wise not to ignore them.
On that note, I will say if anyone has any suggestions how this can be done without hickups, please feel free to put your ideas forwards.
Lastly, Endrix is the lead developer here, I have been asked why I am not accepting the device myself, it is simply because I do not possess the reverse engineering skills to take this project forward and neither do I have the time to learn to do so.
I am quite happy to help out where I can and look forward to purchasing a tg01 if android is successfully ported to it which I look forward to being a part of.
I gather we'd need a new kernel to support usb host for a wired keyboard, and probably the same to activate bluetooth. It occurs to me that B&N viewed the Color as a color ereader, but now views their new hardware more broadly as a tablet. They may be willing to embrace a larger role for the tablet than they did for the color. They might be persuaded to introduce their own keyboard and tweak the OS to accommodate it, and any improvements would be one less thing our devs have to figure out for themselves.
For an easy method to support, Laurel this suggestion (click the leaf on the left) at B&N. Though easy, this method might be the most effective. B&N just set up that suggestion forum for customer feedback on features, so maybe they'll actually listen there.
For a harder method, I'm recruiting people to email tech support and request a keyboard/case be made available. I've already done it myself, but one request is easy to ignore, so I hope I can find some like-minded folks to join me and pester B&N until they give us our Nooktop. I think there's a decent argument that the NT could make a decent netbook replacement for college students who are interested in having an ereader, and that targeting college students early makes for guaranteed customers down the line (ask Apple about that).
Thanks!
Sounds like a great idea to me. I think I'll also mail B&N. Being a college student, I totally understand the need to get a real keyboard.

thanks salvachn, the more the merrier.
Someone just reminded me over on the B&N boards that I had keyboards for all my PDAs back in the day. It's a different market nowadays, but with the Atrix, transformer, thinkpad, and iPad accessories, clearly there is still demand along these lines.
I can tell a lot of people would like a board from posts on other sites, but I don't think I've had a single person anywhere say they did actually send a message to B&N, so maybe my efforts are for naught, but it's worth a bump to be sure. It's easy, hit the link in the OP, write 1 sentence if that's all you've got in ya. Worst case is you're out 15 seconds.
Anyone not interested in emailing B&N can voice their opinion by laureling this suggestion at the B&N forums. Quick easy way to tell B&N to do their job and not force our volunteer devs to do everything for them.
I have already bombarded B&N with emails requesting bluetooth support and the ability to load 3rd party apps. I'm not sure there is anyone with B&N except fanboy store employees that reads B&N forums.
Third year college student here and I totally agree. I've been searching around for this like crazy and, like you said, why should we have to pester our awesome devs who are already extensively busy with our reuqests?
Laureling now. Also checking out FB and Twitter for this.

There is a B&N employee who moderates and now manages the new suggestions forum. He has been marking the status of various requests in time. Some are merely acknowledged, others are marked as in development. Certainly this guy isn't high-up, but it is entirely possible B&N will use him to filter up information about user requests more effectively than their current support system does. That seems to be the point of that forum. Take a look.
While I don't have this device, your request surely deserves B&N's attention. Seems like a win-win for them, and you.
Consider this my bump for your cause, and good luck!
~hc
I'll send an email, too, but unfortunately the news with B&N isn't looking good. There's an article at nytimes entitled "Barnes & Noble Considers Spinning Off Its Nook Unit." http: <space> //dealbook.nytimes.com/2012/01/05/barnes-noble-considers-spinning-off-its-nook-unit/
---------- Post added at 12:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------
I changed my mind. I decided to post in the thread on B&N rather than send an email. If you still think an email would help, let me know! I'm there for ya, pal.
Thanks guys. I think just laureling the request post should do it. Hard to say if they'll listen to anything, but they did just set up that system for just this type of request, so here's hoping.
OP) updated 120619.Post 5) updated 120617. Any help you can contribute is highly welcome. I will keep you updated while working on it and give access for everyone "as is".
1v02.0) Premiss:
1.1.v01.0) Intent of this thread:
- to create a common basis and "reckognized" guideline for a standardised
Code:
setup from scratch of the Asus TF201 for everybody. So user utilising this thread as a tool either (hopefully) enjoy their device afterwards and never come back here, or they are able to compare results and actions of their tf201 on referencing ground and nail its presumable weak spot
- to develop some testing scenarios and simple test environments for home, on the road and wherever for reproducable results.
- with the aim to make experience vary less and gain substantial test-results throughout the community
- to give every member of XDA the possibility to contribute scientific information to the highly qualified and overworked Asus staff
- to laugh about your jokes and be happy when I go to bed a little later than my beloved ones
- there could be other useful or nice sideeffects out of the initial blast and future on topic fussing as some intelligent members already have proven in this thread.
1.2.v01.0) Backgroundinformation
Due to the preliminary confusion caused by my intuitive and snappy approach and some second thoughts I acknowledge my noobness and apologize to everybody psychologicaly involved in it. I wanted to make this going quickly but then I am not a very quick thinker, I guess. So you see my dilemma. I see we are already on track and comments until today made me wonder if I should get rid or change my FAQ and posts archive. I figure my system limits it naturally.
The thread might get reorganised during times as I try to keep up with you guys who cannot resist posting. Great it probably will be easier than I thought.
But since also my days end regularly I just hope the hype ends. Any good findings and pinpointing bull, that's cool gals and will lead eventually to something usable.
Remind you: the quicker you post, the more I fall behind and struggle with ideas and facts. So I'd rather have you pm me.
But I surely do appreciate your criticism, corrections of facts or corrections of my hillbilly english or any comment. I want this a real fun tool as I plan to spend some time with it. Obviously there will be a lot of noobness and room for misunderstandings and -interpretions. I am looking forward to the discussion and every single post. Since I am used to fall behind.
- My (If) call for help or feedback will be on top of this post.
- The elementary information starts in post #2
- Hot spot is post #3
- Threadhistory in post #4
- My (If) feedback on your feedback is in post #5.
- My status is in post #6
1.3.v02.1) Note:
As people seem to be shy and feel uncomfortable when explicitly asked to pm and not to post I apologise and hope many replies will put that guide together quickly. Personally I still prefer pms especially if you want me to fled off, I have stolen your ideas or you don't like the color of my hair: Please, pm me. If you don't like my language, well I am no native but trying to be substantial and open for accurate corrections. I leave post #6 which shows my preferences, as a booby-trap for trolls and whinners. Of course you can post in my thread but only on topic Read post #6 and be warned. Any comment on post #6 exposes itself and saves me a lot of time. Let's see if this works how I figured it out vaguely.
P.S.
And you know all this stuff about reliabilty. Devices vary, so no guarantee yours doesn't blow up. If it breaks, sorry it happens. Mine's still alive and as quick as it can run on the presumably wrong stock code. Let me cite antutu which scores around 13200 points on 1.28. Around 1500 Points more than the previous build. By no means I will say this is the only way of checking, testing and setting up your tf201 or that I am always right. But I am convinced if you let me put my hand on the flamed devices I would fix most of the so called software-flaws and bugs people are experiencing. Software is x'n'o's and works potentionally forever if it works. It will do the same on any similar sister hardware. If you change or add something within this software or add another software, there will be hundreds of ways the original software can brake. Unfortunately only a few to get back to normal.
So read my contribution to the thread: If you are stuck with your problem: Go for that pinhole next to the microsd-card. It works wonders. Turn off the device by pushing the pin for 30 seconds and then wait for the boot. Do a reboot, maybe two and you hopefully be better. To be sure: start from scratch following this thread when it's here. Everything mentioned in my posts is based on my personal experience with the tf201 and other devices, the huge amount of information in xda or elsewhere and input from real cracks and specialists which hopefully join in.
Maybe I ridicule myself, so be it. I give it a go and guess that's fine with the mods too since this will be a joyride for them too!
2) Prerequisits:
- Electricity
- Transformer Prime TF201, stock rom
- Asus ac-connector
- Asus usb-cable
3) Setup (draft):
Whenever you start playing with a new tf201 and a new softwarerelease or rom:
Let the device start up, and first of all make sure you do a reset. By pushing a pin into the pinhole next to the microsd-card slot for 30 seconds you will get rid of old os-intern data debunked all over your device without loosing any of your downloaded progs or added data.
- After this you get a clean start and all os specific values and parameters are deleted. The clean os now is freshly pushing required data to the different services and applications in the appropriate manner it requires it.
- Now make sure you let your device reboot twice and start every loaded application once to set it up as requested.
- Reboot one more time. The tf201 is now ready to work/ play/ cuddle.
(This is how it should be. Experience varys as tf201 do).

I agree with the "First Poster" First you come in and insult the forum saying it is "missing solid ground", then grab a bunch of space to "go at your own pace"?
You created a thread for your "Todo" list? And started it up without contributing anything to the forum, and tell us we can't post to the thread, that it's a soapbox for you and only you? Seriously, why DON'T you start a blog on the Transformer Prime (to go with the 800 others out there) and DON'T post a link. I could understand if you had some great info to put up, and wanted to add to it later, but this is plain useless. Now please delete my post.
There is LOTS of information regarding "Setup and Testing" of TF101, going back over 6 months. Did you try seraching the forum, or is it you are not interested in what anyone else has to say, but rather just what YOU plan to post... later... when you get around to it - (the suspense is killing people everywhere.) in a General Info Forum... where you have yet to post anything remotely useful...
hmmm.

While I like your idea, two things that you should know/correct:
-You dont need to hold the soft reset pinole for 30 seconds, once it's push it does the same thing.
-Pushing the pinhole resets the way Prime, however, this fresh boot will only last for a short period of time. So, any apps that were giving you isses before, will give you the SMAME issue again. This has been discussed already and proven. The I/O schedule is also not fixed by simply pushing the pinhole, it's just "started over"
You should copy confirmed working info from throughout the avaialble threads if you are trying to help people, tht will be more benificial for "new owners. The Prime's main issue seems to stem from the I/O scheduler, plus a few incompatible apps, so people observe which apps causes issues and remove them. Also, the next update "should" fix the I/O issue by giving priority to the foreground running applictions.
The Pin-hole in our Primes doesn't get rid of any OS Data, it is just a way to reset the Prime in a hardware-fashion since we cant remove the battery. If the OS completely freezed a software reset wont work, and since we have no way of remove the battery a solution had to be implemented
The Cold Boot option in the boot menu is pretty much just like turning the Prime off and then turning it on again. So far I'm not ware of a way to clear all caches with a Stock Prime.
If you are unsure, turn off the Prime, and measure the time it takes to boot when using pin hole option, cold boot option and normal. If any cache would be deleted it would take twice the time, since it would be building all the Dalvik/Cache files again. As far as I know, it always takes the same time to boot up, doesnt matter which option you choose.

My apologies to the OP. I was unaware of the details involved to achieve the unlocking of the sim. So here im admitting to my jumping to conclusions and being a asshole.

To perform certain functions (sometimes including SIM unlock), you need a dongle or some other piece of hardware (most of which are expensive). Hence why the OP requires you to install flexihub, which allows your PC to access remote USB ports and, thus, remote USB devices. So, now that we are aware of what is going on here, please check the judgemental attitudes at the door, and if you don't want to participate in this thread, then you are free not to...
The OP is provide a service for free for the benefit of the community. Now, if this was not provided for free, then that would be a different story, and I would have shut the thread down long ago if I had proof of that.

To perform certain functions (sometimes including SIM unlock), you need a dongle or some other piece of hardware (most of which are expensive). Hence why the OP requires you to install flexihub, which allows your PC to access remote USB ports and, thus, remote USB devices. So, now that we are aware of what is going on here, please check the judgemental attitudes at the door, and if you don't want to participate in this thread, then you are free not to...
The OP is provide a service for free for the benefit of the community. Now, if this was not provided for free, then that would be a different story, and I would have shut the thread down long ago if I had proof of that.

Not in this case, I've confirmed with a sprint tier 3 support technician at a call center here in Portland. It's a white list on the server side. You can use all the hardware you want, do whatever you want to the phone without the sprint server authorizing ICCID unlock it's not happening. Period. So again this is a scam.

You may very well be correct. However, I don't intend on choking off a thread that could potentially work until we see confirmation either way by someone who has tried the service.

You can do research to confirm Sprints new method of of controlling ICCID unlocks via the the server side. It's all out there. Meantime potentially our xda members could be getting ripped off.. Just saying. But hey what do I know lol.

Funny, because there's a user here on xda who has been unlocking Sprint HTC devices for a while now, and it has been confirmed by many others...

Like I said, you may be correct, and there may be something specific about the S7, but we need confirmation from a user here, not from Sprint tech support...

It's also complete BS I have learned it's actually impossible to get a Sprint S7 unlocked anyway besides on the Sprint side. So unless this guy is hacking Sprints servers he is scamming people.

Do you have any proof of your allegations? Because I didn't, and I deleted my posts cuz i had no proof that the OP had broken any XDA rules. In addition, until we see a user here on XDA that own's a galaxy s7 (Sprint) that says his process works or it doesn't work, we should continue to keep a neutral opinion and let the OP do his thing.

I have looked over your other threads and I seen no indication of you breaking any rules, or ripping anyone off, so hopefully you and I are good. Are you and I good? I went back and deleted my inappropriate comments and I apologized to you for my opening my big mouth.
As for the others not reporting feedback, if you in fact helped them unlock their phones, then they have a obligation to you to post their feedback, and if they didn't, then SHAME on them.. And did you mean to say that you've been a member since 2005?

You may very well be correct, BUT until you, or someone else has any proof of the OP ripping them off, or scammed them using this service, everyone accusing the OP of scamming should keep their opinions to themselves, IMO.
And to the MODERATOR, perhaps you should delete some of my unneeded comments, just to clean his thread up a bit so my big mouth doesn't help form any bad opinions of the OP? Anyways, imma shut up now and stay out of the OP's thread, lol...

ANYONE NEEDING UNLOCKING, CONTACT @asadnow2k!!! Unlocked my phone with ease. I can now use my Sprint unlocked device with my new tmobile service. Very satisfied
Dear hacking artists,
I really need help. There is this lame TV Box called Omnibox. Years ago, when RadioShack was going through bankruptcies, the manufacturer gave up support and left me with this Omnibox useless. Since it is preloaded with some dumb OS I don't recognize, I can't do anything with this hardware.
You can look at the device on Amazon website and searching for "Omnibox" and it's the second result.
Amazon Product ID is B007NJ6S9S.
I am interested in loading Android on this and I am willing to offer a bounty on it if this forum can allow it.
I will do my best to work with you and provide you with necessary information. If you prove yourself to be capable, I will physically send it to you to tinker.
Please let me know in which forum I can post this request. If you can teach me how to upload photos on this forum, I'd appreciate it too.
Thank you for your time.
