When reading through the forums using Dolphin browser I have a weird display issue. The text in the posts gets real faint like the opposite of bold but really light. Instead of the text black its like a light grey. No where to change this. Ideas?

I had this on stock browser ages ago. I fixed it by reverting to the 2010 theme on xda. Other themes seem to be overlaying something on top.
How do you revert to 2010?

Go to the bottom left of any page on xda, there you can choose you desired theme.
Had this weird thing also but figured it out myself:good:

Yeah, the new theme bugs out on essentially all browsers I've used thus far on the 700. Shame, because I must admit I do like the color palette. :highfive:

So I was wondering if there was a way to get around the new wallpaper cropping that the transformer does since the 3.1 update. Its starting to get really annoying because I download a wallpaper or picture and I can't set the whole thing as the wallpaper. Thanks in advance
this is not really something you can avoid due to the the scrolling screens and variable screen orientation.

I knew there had to be one. I'm always on mobile and search on xda mobile is not very good. Lol
So recently when updating to ICS the Notification Panel is a bright bright blue and all the icons are blurry. I have tried 3 different ICS roms so far and they are all like that. Here is a screenshot of it. I'm not sure if it is meant to look like that or not, but it looks seriously out of place in my opinion...anyway if anyone could give some insight into this would be grateful
Edit: All Fixed nevermind
That is the Asus modded notification panel, you can turn it off and get the ICS defaulted in the Asus custom settings menu. As for the slight blur, mine looks the same as yours so I think it's normal.

Is there any way to remove blank or unused pages on the home screen? I organize my apps into named folders so I've no use for the other four pages pages.

Not in the stock launcher. Some other launchers (like: GO Launcher HD (EX is only for phones, HD is for tablets)) will allow you to control this. Others here have used Apex and Nova Launcher, but I can't speak to them. I do know that there were stability issues with some of those.

try pressing the home button,--> after pressing it, it will show you all the desktop pages, you can click and drag those pages that you are not using up into the trash bin (same process when you delete widgets from your homescreen)
hope it helps .. ^_^

Will using a launcher kill my battery?

Wont let me edit my last post. Grr. I guess what I want to know is if stock launcher will still be running under or alongside apex launcher? I don't want two launchers eating up resources.

From my consulting days "It Depends."
The launcher itself shouldn't. It replaces the default launcher (the first time you press 'home' you can select the default - go to settings ->apps -> the launcher -> clear defaults (or uninstall the launcher) to get back to the stock one). If you use GO there are a lot of cool ad-ons and widgets that will consume battery but you have to download them separately and add them manually. Since you're trying to keep one screen I'll assume that you wont be adding a ton of widgets.
The only difference in system is that some launchers may take more memory than others and if there is battery drain it's trivial (like checking daily for an update instead of weekly or something not enough to notice by any means).
Note that when you change your launcher you will have to re-setup your home screen. If you revert to the stock launcher your old setup will still be there, so it's not lost. Each launcher just saves their own configuration.
Good luck!
Thanks, everyone. I look forward to participating here in the forums. I am also on overclock.net.
P.S. has anyone done extensive comparisons on which launcher performs the best and uses the least amount of resources while doing so? Im open to opinions.

No one has done a full comparison (that I know of) but reading through these might help (some are more general and background, some should give you an idea of problems/questions that other people have.)

I used Apex on my Droid Bionic. It's VERY close -- as in, nearly identical -- to the stock Moto launcher. I liked it a lot, better than ADW, in fact.

i guess Android is not ready for such high resolution because most app icons look like blurry dirt on our screen. Not what i was expecting. It stand out from the screen. When i show my infinity to people they notice the lowres icon right away.
??? No idea what you are talking about.
Pics describe a thousand words.
Had a prime and now have an infinity - everything is sharp on my screen.
Have you messed with the DPI at all or have you installed the TF300 firmware?
My icons are not blurry or pixelated in any way...

U can see icons like my library, my cloud, file manager etc. They are lowres icon madefor 720p res screen and have been expand to 1080p ending in a blurry icon. I cannot believe noone has notice this. U can clearly tell which app icon were upgrade to this screen and which were expand.

i forget that a lot of people aren't into customizing their screens and using alternate icon sets. You can do so much with what's available for free or cheap in the Play Store.
This is the app makers fault, not the tablet. For the Asus apps they're to blame of course, but other apps can only be fixed by the app developers.
But yeah, some apps still have low resolution icons which looks bad. In-app graphics that's low resolution is worse though.

and this is why i laugh at people who swear by a 1080p 10" device. all the detail they claim they can see but can't see how blurry a lower res icon is. i deal with this all the time at work when customers send low res images.
that's not saying i wouldn't like a 1080p screen, it's just that people really don't notice as much as they think they do.
but really, what can you expect? a lot of apps are just now starting to catch up to 720/tablet sizes.
Believe me - the difference is *very* noticeable! I loaded CM10 on my TF101 this morning - the difference is much bigger than you think! I personally, never really cared about the icons - they are just icons! But the difference in text is immediately noticeable!

after watching a few review, one of them answer my question. He said the same thing about the icon looking blurry because they have not optimize the icons for 1080p resolution.

I have changed the battery icon for the tablet (see attached) and was trying to change the keyboard/dock to the same icon. I know it has something to do with the Transformer.apk, but don't know how to change it. I have pulled the apk to mod it, but I am at a dead end. Does anyone know how I would change the dock battery?

I posted how to do this in the development section, page 2 near the bottom. I also sent you a pm per your request.
It is easy if you look at the files I posted and see the changes.

The reason the 1% dock battery icons are not showing up is that you named them incorrectly.
It is important you download the .zip file I posted in my 1% battery post. The entire file structure is layed out including the name of the 1% battery icons and where they go. This also includes the names of the .xml battery scripts and where they go. One of the scripts is about 9kb and the other about 40kb. The dock battery icons have there own script/icons which is not the same name as the SystemUI script/battery icons.

I am not trying to get the 1% battery icons. I am simply trying to use the icons that I changed the color of. That is why I don't understand why it isn't working. I changed the color of the stock Asus battery icon and replaced it in the same folder.

The battery icons for the dock are in framework-res.apk: asus_ep_kb_battery_*.png, etc.
I have changed them to the colors I want, but the changes don't seem to work. Anywhere I saw the Asus keyboard battery icons I replaced them to be on the safe side, but nothing seems to work. I am at a loss.
