[Q]fix for browser washout after update. - Asus Transformer TF700

Ok so all the black font is perfect and crisp on most everything until I click on a post on xda. Then it starts loading the page and the black font turns washed out. Like it never finishes loading the page or something... anyone else experience this? I just got the ota for JB if that helps. But I don't think that's what it is... cause this happen to me on the tf300t after i side loaded flash player, all I had to do was reset the browser settings and wala. But not this time...

These are a couple screen shots. The washed out one is when it's finished loading, the other is one I quickly captured before it loaded all the way.

Yup. I have had the issue ever since the JB update. Interestingly, it only happens if I was logged in i.e. as a guest, it won't happen. I use stock browser.

That did it for me - thanks!
I do miss the quick dedicated icon to mark the forum messages read (the 2010 layout requires 2 clicks), but the grayed out appearance was annoying.

Looks amazing and plays really well on the transformer. Grab it free on amazon for today
I tried it and it worked fine until the battle actually started and it was just a black screen with the HUD.
On the android market it says its not compatible with the transformer, I'm also getting crashes
To fix the black screen issue, just pinch to zoom in then out. I had the same problem initially. After that, the game works fine (and is crazy addictive).

I emailed the devs when i first noticed this the day it was released on amazon and their reply was that fixing it for honeycomb is their top priority.

What issues? The update fixed the black screen and text problem - were there other things that didn't work?

[Q] Random line flickering on screen

I've done a search and I can't seem to find this issue anywhere.
I've got a new Transformer Infinity and every now and then a line appears on the screen and then disappears. This line appears to be about 1 pixel wide.
I didn't notice it at first, but ever since I got the Jellybean update, I'm seeing it quite often.
any idea what this is? Can it be fixed? And should I be concerned?
So I wasn't seeing things when it loaded the html viewer just now... I thought it was just my imagination, but if you're seeing them too...
Never had then before JB. Maybe a graphic bug? Some overlay we're normally not seeing?

I'm not seeing a line, but the screen definitely flickers as it is fading to dark when it's going to sleep. Never did this before JB.
Glad to see it's not just me.
I'm don't remember seeing it on ICS, I'm hoping this can be fixed without needing to return it.
Not sure if the same thing, but Prime forum after JB I remember people were talking about screen tearing. I am pretty sure this is something to do with new screen refreshing method used in Jellybean.
The flickering mine always did on power saving, even in ICS...
Where's the Vsync option when you need one... Oi, Nvidia!
Same issue here ever since JB, in any speed setting.

Same issue, particularly annoying on repligo pdf reader.
It's definitively not screen tearing, some group of lines are just missing on random frame
I have the same issue on my tablet noticed it as soon as i got the update to JB

I am having the same issue, for me it seems to occur a lot more with Smart Backlight Adjuster disabled.

I have the random lines too.
There's a thick line that appears at times only when web browsing.
The thick line appears from edge to edge.
The thinner lines don't go edge to edge.
Weird...

Screen flicker in certain apps

I am noticing an issue with a screen flicker in some applications with a line drawing across the screen for a split second. It occurs most when using rdp apps but just saw it happen while typing this post. it's about 3/4 of the way up the screen when in landscape. Usually a black line that disappears quickly, like a graphics corruption issue. Already did a factory reset, saw the same thing on another tf700... anyone else?

Same thing for me after update to JB. Copilot and Cool reader.
You're not crazy, saw this happen while using the Nook app as well. I hope ASUS is aware of this bug
I've been noticing this issue in Tapatalk the most - probably because it's most noticeable on a white background...

same here.... mostly with apps that are being resized because they are not fully for tablets
I am seeing this more and more, and not just with resized apps. Just had it with the gallery.... i have seen this with 3 infinity tabs so far and they were all bought at different times. I can only describe it as a graphics driver issue, anyone else seeing this?

Same for me too unfortunately. I can't even play Horn, GTA3, Black Ops Zombies, or any graphic intense game. It really sucks! Horn worked just fine until the last OTA I accepted. Still on ICS, havent taken the JB update as I'm gonna unlock bootloader and get nvflash going first. Hoping I can cure the issue with a custom Rom *crossing fingers*

No, but OTA root keeper got it back. First thing I noticed was that the HDMI output options are gone. Not "reduced" but completely gone. Freaking awesome. I actually used those.
Oh my god!!!!! You are right!! Hdmi options are gone, this is horrible! Gary... do something! WE USE THOSE OPTIONS AND THEY NEED TO BE PUT BACK PRONTO!

Man, that is some enthusiasim right there! I just stumbled upon a workaround. If you reboot the device while HDMI is connected, the system will start in stretched mode. Just DO NOT navigate to the HDMI options menu on the settings screen and it will stay stretched. The moment you go look for HTMI options it switches to cropped and the only way back is another reboot.
I knew about the work around, but yes, it really is that critical, i just showed 50 users how to use it after the update have us those new menu options!

Ouch, that is gonna leave a mark then. I actually wasn't sure about the workaround... I've noticed various system settings that seem to "change" after a reboot such as performance mode and screen saver settings. Wasn't sure if this would stick with the new update or not. Also don't know how consistent it is.
Personally I'd love to see the options come back with a change to the stretched behavior. When displaying the entire screen to HDMI out there is absolutely NO reason for the Android status bar to be twice the normal height. Wasted freaking space.
I read somewhere that the option shows up only when you're connected to an HDMI source .. perhaps have it connected, then go into settings and look below ASUS customized setting ?
Ah here -

It will show up between "ASUS customized settings" and "Power Saver" when you have an external display connected.

Got it back with OTARootKeeper. My first impressions are:
mediaserver is still crashing when the camera is supposed to render video off screen
system bar lock got an extra option: show system information (or at least I can't remember seeing in there before)
detailed release notes from ASUS on what was fixed/changed would be nice
I am rooted on stock and after ota didn't lose my root, was just there as before

Yes, the HDMI menu shows up when connected but the actual options are non-existant.
Does Gary even have any control of the update what so ever??

I don't think he does, but when his dev team told him they ready to release, then he come in here and post. However, he does reported issues he found on this site back to his dev team, but it's up to the dev team & Managment team decided which issue to work on.

Machine boots - then screen goes wonky after 60 sec

I have a TF300T I just received and am trying to get this thing going. I have had a number of these devices and can't seem to solve this problem.
To me it sounds like a hardware problem.
I have unlocked the bootloader, installed latest ROM from ASUS and installed TWRP 25.0 as the recovery. Go into TWRP no screen problems works great even if I leave it for a while.
If I let it boot normally - it goes through the normal boot up procedure and arrives at the lock screen. Here is where it gets weird.:silly:
If I unlock (move finger to the right) and go into anything like settings or file manager or any app - or just leave it without doing anything - the screen I was working with goes away and I get a bunch of uniform vertical lines. If you leave the vertical lines long enough - the unit shuts down.
Sounds like a hardware problem. Graphics board or display? Any thoughts welcome.
Cheers

Any chance you can hook it up to a TV/monitor through HDMI to see if you can replicate the problem there? Graphics are embedded in the CPU. But if it's bad, it wouldn't show anything to begin with. This is not heat-sensitive in that it either works or it don't. I'd suspect something else, but there's no way to find out except by the process of elimination.
