Duckman2008 posted:I don't travel enough with a Tablet to need a case with my transformer. And when I do i keep it in my laptop bag. Just two cents on the other side of cases, why get a case for something if you mostly use it at home? I bought a case because I was afraid of scratching the screen if I lay it face down, and afraid of dropping something on it if I lay it face up. Also the case acts as a stand which I use frequently.

Toady posted:Wouldn't Lego blocks be cheaper? You've completely missed the point of post-PC appliance devices. Do you not understand that the purpose of rooting and tinkering is to add features that some people may want, not features that should be stock? Things like overclocking, theming, or changing to a different OS version, are things people want to do because they want their device to be exactly how THEY want it.

Install Gentoo posted:My Transformer has a decent enough rear camera but frankly I've no use for it at that size. I took a couple pictures with it for the novelty of it all but that's it. The rear camera would be nice for taking video (like home movies) if there was a single good Android app for editing video. The transformer comes with an app but it's the biggest shitpile I've ever used.

I'm not going to pay that kind of money for something I know they got for a third of that. Maybe craigslisters are that stupid though. I saw a 32 gb touchpad (used, slight wear on the back) for $175 on craigslist the other day. I considered picking it up but I doubt I'd ever use it.

If anybody else with a TF101 was stupid like me and took the OTA and lost root, you can get it back with this. Just make sure you only choose option 1. Don't use it to install CWM.

Does the Transformer Prime with ICS have as big of a problem with random boot-looping that the TF101 does? At least every other day, I'll open up my tablet to find it on the ASUS boot screen with either the spinning loading circle, or the circle will be frozen. The weird thing is it seems to murder my dock battery but not really affect the tablet battery.

randyest posted:Judging from XDA and AndroidCentral threads this is not uncommon, and may not even be ASUS-specific, but could be a general ICS problem. I'd hang tight and wait for an ICS update to address it. I'm sure google and ASUS are on it. There was an update to fix it. It may have made the problem a little better but it didn't fix it completely. Also it's funny to hear someone say that Asus pushed out ICS too early because most people were ready to throw bricks through windows with how much longer it took to get ICS on the TF101 than on the TF201.

Secret Sweater posted:I hate my tablet because I tried to install ROMs without knowing what I'm doing You could have 1-click rooted with ViperMod Primetime, installed CWM, then flashed any ROM through CWM with no issues. AOKP is full featured (though still suffers from random reboots which I believe to be inevitable) and is AOSP based.

Cakefool posted:And again I ask, why not have the good camera facing the user, if videochat is the future? I would guess that as the picture quality goes up on the FFC, so does the bandwidth requirements to broadcast it. It's somewhat of a moot point since most people are using tablets on WiFi, but that's probably a reason.

What's the name of that 18-inch dual-booting tablet that is supposed to be coming out? I think I'm the only person that is really interested in it. I rarely take my TF101 anywhere so having a laptop sized touchscreen device that can run Android AND Windows seems to be perfect for me, if it doesn't suck. I'm not getting my hopes too high on it not sucking though.

EgillSkallagrimsson posted:Quick question for you ereader app users. Do any of these ereader apps have an autoscroll function? I've been using this because it's the only one that I've found with an autoscroll function. Everything else about the program is pretty terrible but autoscroll has spoiled me to the point where not having it is a deal breaker. I haven't used it and I don't know how to activate it but I just checked and Moon+ Reader has autoscroll with five different scrolling options.

I don't have a phone with on screen buttons but I would imagine all you'll have on the screen will be tiny faint doors where the buttons are. I don't think there is a way to get rid of the button bar.

Gyshall posted:More of a hypothetical tablet question than a just android tablet question - but is it plausible for their to be a hybrid Android/Windows 8 tablet in the future? As in one that can dual boot both operating systems. This is sort of what the Asus Transformer AIO is, but not in the way you'd want. When it's docked like a Desktop, it runs Windows 8. When you remove it from the dock, it switches to Android. Also it has an 18 inch screen.
