Shipped my TF101 for RMA today. I miss it already. - Eee Pad Transformer General

I figured you guys would appreciate how I feel. I feel sad. No tablet to play with. It is amazing how quickly I grew dependent on it. Now I have no tablet. My wife thinks its ridiculous to feel sad over sending a tablet in for RMA service.
But I never left the house with it. Or went to work without it. Etc.
It sucks...And I am sure Asus will take their time. So I figure with Xmas and new years, I wont see it till next month.

You can do something like this guy to ease your addiction.

I need to send mine in but idk if the older methods of unrooting work?

My wife owns the Xoom now. She was very impressed by it and was excited to get it. I want a better screen but if no good contenders present themselves, I may pick up the Wifi only version.
I like it a lot more since she owns it and not me.
Wish I could trade my wife to a girlfriend so my xoom will not be interfering my personal life
Hehe, my wife already hates my phone, wonder how much more she'll hate the Xoom when I get it.

Replacing camera hardware

Does anybody know how I would go about opening my phone and replacing the camera? My hardware camera part is broken (as far as I can tell, neither the camera or flash work any more in any rom or app) but I have more than one person offer to help me out (jgross something and my dev friend) and let me take the camera out of their test or spare device. problem is, I have no idea how to open the phone without breaking something, or taking the camera out. and I definitely have no idea how to connect it unless it is like a computer type deal.
plus side is, I have access to lots of different tools between my dad, friends and work, and I repair and take apart computers all the time so I have experience with small connectors like for internal parts of net books and whatever.
tl;dr if you know how to take apart a fascinate and replace a camera, or can link to somewhere that I can learn, you rock

I actually wrecked my car (totalled it, not my fault) last Monday morning, my phone apparently hit the dashboard hard enough to kinda fix the camera. It works for long enough to take a couple of pictures then messes up.
Anyways, I received a replacement camera, but am pretty busy dealing with insurance claims and stuff right now, I will make sure to document and post an update if I ever get around to doing it.

Anyone want a epic w/o a working screen?

Alright well I had these opening on the side of my epic form dropping it so much and one day I had it in the bathroom while the shower was running and I think the steam killed the screen. it slowly "Faded to black" literally it took like two days lol. It's been two weeks and Im finally calling it quits and getting a new one. Im considering sending it out if anyone wants to play with it, if you fix it I may be able to buy it from you at a reasonable price. But my main question is, does anyone want it?
stop!
Just wannna make sure you know how assurion works:
1. report a phone as broken
-required to send in device
-100 dollar deductible
2. report devices as lost
-phone blacklisted from all further sprint services, bad esn
-100 dollar deductible
3. report device as stolen
-require police report
-100 dollar deductible
-black listed esn.
I have a screen laying around. I'll totally grab it from you and fix it. PM me if your serious buddy.

LOL. Yeah, it's like giving someone a curse. Such a shame too. Asus could have made this situation a lot better.
My Transformer was rock solid till I got greedy and wanted ICS on it. ICS on Transformer has been a nightmare.
That said I love this tablet when it works, it get's used and abused every day.
Just ordered a Nexus 7 yesterday though, gonna see how the 7 inch form factor works out for me. Still Asus made, so I have fingers crossed.

Yep, I feel like ASUS owe me and everyone else with the problems, some sort of partial refund at least. It's not like a laptop where you could install a different OS until they sort their stuff out.
Because of asus' incompetency, it has now been useless longer than it has been stable, imo that is not acceptable and if I could be bothered I would fight for a full refund and be done with them.
Since ICS, the tablet has sat unused the majority of the time because of the sheer number of bugs making it a chore to use rather than an enjoyment.
And what irritates me is all the feedback on the problems people on their FB page give, and asus completely ignore it and post childish "Happy Friday" etc comments as if they are some silly little school girl talking to her little friends
Company has gone from top 3 to never again for me
Is this problem only on the Tf101 with ics or on all the other ones as well?

I'm completely stock, and un-rooted. I have zero issues, and I use my tablet all day long. I also have about 100 apps installed. I had some minor issues on the initial ICS release, but they are long gone. If I had a fraction of the issues being reported, I'd have "eBayed" my TF a long time ago, or installed a custom ROM.

hy there,
firstly in my country the transformer 16gb wifi still sels for about 300 usd - used not in a store. at the price you got it... i would buy another.
about problems.... mine is rooted and using revolution hd rom. no issues with it and it is used daily.
also i have the dock and it helps me with the transition from my laptop.
Megatron 1.1.6, Guevor Test kernel, dual booting Ubuntu (loopmounted) and I can say I've had zero problems since Guevor Test 15 or so, its a wonderful device if you get off the stock train. I'm currently selling mine on ebay for $360 with the dock, but only because I really need the money.
