    Post [ROM][N 7.1.2] [ KatKiss - Nougatella #039 ]

    Same problem here since #19, as well as problems with wallpaper not sticking/flashing pink. Still the best ROM around for the TF700, though.

    Post [ROM][TF700 - TF201][MM 6.0.1] [ KatKiss - KatshMallow #029] [MultiWindow]

    This ROM is a godsend! I had all but written off my Transformer, but after installing this it's back to life with a vengeance. Thank you so much for staying interested in this lovely piece of hardware! By the way, can anyone tell me why I can't install Pokémon Go? :D Android version is 6.0.1...

    Post [Q] WiFi Priority

    Thanks a lot, I'll try that. Why would Google remove this option from the WiFi advanced settings, though? It makes it a pain to use devices that create ad-hoc networks... Does anyone know if there is a planned comeback in future releases?

    Thread [Q] WiFi Priority

    Hi all. I'm having problems using the GoPro app to control my camera from my phone. The app relies on the phone connecting to an ad-hoc WiFi network generated by the GoPro camera. The problem is that the phone keeps switching to my home WiFi. I presume this happens because the router signal is...

    Post [Q] Applications Problem in Lollipop

    Since updating to Lollipop I've also experienced a number of issues, including laggy home screen (it's blank for a second or two before the icons start loading, whereas before it was immediate) and huge number of Chrome crashes. Anyone know if there's anything we can do, or should we expect an...

    Post *Post Your Photosphere Photos!*

    Couple of tiny worlds Cool topic! I've only recently tried playing with Photosphere and got a couple interesting images. Not nearly perfect (some visible blurs and incorrect stiches, as well as body parts scattered in the first image) but a nice toy :) So, here's one in Burano, an island near...

    Post Why root a Nexus 5?

    Some people prefer different launchers or ROMs or to have access to certain functions (e.g. full backup) that require root. I've had my N5 for a month and haven't felt the need for it, so I'm still stock, locked, unrooted.

    Haven't noticed any lag. Phone was fine before the update, still fine afterwards. [EDIT] For reference, I'm on stock 4.4.2, unrooted, locked, Dalvik.

    Post 4.4.2 wtf

    Add me to the list of those who never got the 4.4.1 OTA. But today at about 13:00 UTC I got the notification for the 4.4.2 update. I'm still stock, unrooted, locked and in no rush to get these updates, so even if I was a little jealous of all the people getting 4.4.1 I'd be fine waiting for...

    Post What do you want to see in Android 4.5/5.0?

    My wishlist for stock 5.0: - Landscape home screen; - Customizable quick settings menu (the two-finger swipe down) allowing for additional controls; - Volume menu like in the Asus Transformer: when you press volume up/down, you get a bar for the relevant volume (ring tone, media, alarm, etc.)...

    Meh... It's just a bug. Can be inconvenient if you reboot and don't connect to your network until you insert your PIN, but there are no security issues mentioned. I'd be more worried about the bug in many american cell subscriptions that share SMS cost between sender and receiver. But...

    Post Nexus 5 screen died today + dangerously hot lower screen

    On my Transformer Infinity, sometimes the screen won't turn on at all. On a few occasions, if I press Power enough times, I get a glimpse of a message saying the Launcher process has stopped, but then my touchscreen doesn't register any input. The tablet is also sometimes running quite hot at...

    Post [Poll] Naked or Protected?

    Anyone know where you can get the official Nexus 5 bumper case outside the Google Play store? I've been searching for it in the usual places but can't seem to find it... That's the only case I'd be interested in, since I don't want to ruin the awesome feel of the soft plastic back on the black N5 :)

    Post Best Webbrowser for Android 4.4/ Nexus 5

    I seriously haven't seen the need to install any other browser on my N5, I just go with the stock Chrome. I used Chrome Beta on my Transformer Infinity and it became harder and harder to use (last few times I used it the curved tabs were all messed up). Both Beta and official Chrome are...

    Also black for me, just a matter of preference. Though from what I've been reading, black's soft plastic back gives a better grip than the white back.

    Post [PT] Nexus 5 - Portugal thread

    And it's here! Everything went fine (apart from nobody being home at the delivery address when they came round, but it was quickly solved by picking up the phone at their warehouse). The phone's great, everything's working fine so no issues with sending it back to Spain just yet :)...

    Post [PT] Nexus 5 - Portugal thread

    Regarding warranties and distance sales, there are EU directives that apply to all member states. It may be more complicated to get warranty service, but the rule is you can go either to the retailer who sold you the phone or to the manufacturer. In this case, however, I'm not too sure who would...

    Post Dedicated Runtime Thread (ART vs Dalvik)

    Hi, I've got a Nexus 5 coming my way and I'm curious about this ART thing. I wonder if it would be possible to choose the run-time on a per-app basis, since that would be the best of both worlds. It probably isn't feasible with the stock ROM, but would it be doable in theory with some...

    Post [PT] Nexus 5 - Portugal thread

    Typical of Portuguese businesses... They don't realize we can vote with our wallets and go elsewhere for the goods. I got tired of waiting and ordered via hiperelectro.es for a total of € 394 shipping included (16GB version). I've already received notice that they're setting up the package and...

    Any luck with online shops? So, has anyone ordered from an online shop (NOT the Google Play UK store, with an address forwarding service)? I ordered the 32GB black from getgoods.de but cancelled my order since they wouldn't give any information regarding availability. I don't like the idea of...

    Post [PT] Nexus 5 - Portugal thread

    I approve of this post. I've also looked around the Nexus 5 forum and only found a way that involves using Tor and setting up a fake Google account, then buying from the UK, sending to a UK address and having the phone re-shipped to Portugal. This is way too much of a hassle for me and I can't...

    Post [Q] Polaris office

    I second this opinion, this is precisely my experience. Other office suites (i.e. free ones) would have deal-breaker issues such as lag or lack of functionality. Office Suite is the best, but still far from perfect.

    Thread [Q] Cracked gorilla glass

    Hi all. Does anyone have experience with ASUS support for cracked Gorilla glass? The LCD underneath is working fine, I've just got a crack running along the right side of the screen. No other signs of damage, though I can't rule out having knocked the side of the tablet onto something hard...

    Post Firmware Upgrade?

    So, does anyone have a changelog for this or know if it's possible to keep root with Voodoo OTA and this update? On the other hand, I may be sending my tablet to ASUS for repairs. If they update to this firmware, does factory reset revert to an older version I can root without unlocking...

    Thread Keep file date/time when copying files

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand with an issue I'm having. I've noticed that whenever I put my camera's SD card in the Transformer and copy or move the files to the tablet, they lose their date/time attributes. This is messing up the gallery for me, since the photos get...

    I can't speak for CROMi-X since I never unlocked (if you do, note that you lose any manufacturer warranty apart from those the law gives you, e.g. in the EU). But I'm on 4.2.2, rooted, locked, and the only app that gives me considerable lag is Chrome. Some office apps were unusable due to lag...

    Thread TF700 dock - trackpad not working [SOLVED by ShadowLea]

    Hi all. I bought my Transformer with the TF700 dock in November and today I noticed the trackpad isn't working, i.e. it doesn't generate the blue mouse pointer when I swipe, and doesn't register any button clicks. Is there any chance this is only a software issue? If so, how could I go about...

    Post Surfing with Chrome on this tablet is really laggy, anyone else experiencing this?

    Chrome has gotten progressively worse in my experience, despite tons of small updates with "performance improvements". Recently it was all but unusable. I installed the latest firmware update and it seems to be better, so perhaps the problem is the stock ROM rather than the app. I agree that...

    Thanks, I'll try that then and report any improvements here. As for battery, I honestly don't have any problems. As I've said I'm on stock ROM, rooted, locked. My tablet lasts for days on standby and quite a few hours in use (games, browsing, etc.). Maybe it's some issue with a battery-draining...

    I haven't bothered with this update yet, since nobody seems to know exactly what it does. I'm rooted but not unlocked and performance is pretty good except when updating apps or just after I turn on WiFi (it goes into app syncing mode and lags horribly for a few minutes). My major gripe right...

    Post Are FHD screens on tablets worth it?

    1) Have had mine since November, no screen protector, no scratches. However, I usually keep mine docked and inside an ASUS carrying case. How buttery are your fingers? :p 2) Don't know. 3) No, it's moved on to 4.2.1 for a while and just last week a minor upgrade came out. I don't know what...

    Post [Q] External Optical Drive

    You can probably access a PC-connected drive if you share it on your network, but I don't think you can stream Blu-Ray content to your tablet quickly enough for good playback. An alternative is to rip those media to a shared hard drive and play back from a compressed .mkv. In my experience...

    Post [Q] Tf700 with Customer rom vs nexus 10

    No Nexus device will have MicroSD in the foreseeable future. AFAIK, it's a deliberate option by Google, and unless it's changed Nexus devices will rely on internal memory. Forgive my ignorance, does the Nexus 10 have a USB connector? Could you plug in a microSD reader? I have one that's little...

    Post Why such a long gap for the 700 model replacement?

    I think you may be right. The Infinity was a bit pricey, but I don't regret for a second going for it instead of a lower-res tablet. And the Nexus 7 is a great piece of hardware, but as I was looking into a laptop replacement, it wouldn't have been a choice (too small a screen, no dock, even if...

    Post [Q] Compatibility of games

    Compatibility of games I've come across this problem a few weeks ago when trying to purchase Machinarium, which also identifies as incompatible. I'm thinking it would be in ASUS' interest to have developers correctly identify their apps/games' compatibility with the TF700. Could we perhaps...

    My personal experience is quite good with the Infinity, despite a few quirks. In terms of Office suite, I've settled with Kingsoft Office (free), but note that I do mainly word processing so haven't really tried the spreadsheet/presentation parts of it. It displays Word documents nicely and...
