so just starting this thread so we can discuss any updates on release or other info cause i cant wait for the phone
and please try not to let this post became arguments just like every other one
One member believes it will release at the end of September, as for everyone else on the internet, we haven't heard a word about release. The Sprint version is coming early September and I've heard the Verizon version is late Sept, but AT&T hasn't been mentioned by anyone but 1 user on here.
Check back in a few weeks.
If you have any questions regarding other things about the phone besides release date, ask away.
stopped by the at&t store yesterday...talked to this girl that i always go to and she said one of her co-workers went to a training seminar for the Touch Pro..he wasnt there at the time so i couldnt get any more info. She said its gonna be withing a month till its released..i cant wait.

differences are no front camera
the keyboard layout top row is symbols not numbers wich i say is better
and the software for the fm radio was removed but you can put it back on
any other new stuff id love to hear!
I can't wait for this to be released. My girlfriend's cousin works at an AT&T store here in town so hopefully when I see him tonight he will be able to give me some info. The only bad part is that I am not due for an upgrade until Dec 09 =(.
I think i will just use my mom's upgrade mwhahahaha
Is there any difference in proccessor speed or RAM from the EU version? or is the only difference purely just the front camera and keyboard layout?

black says his has the same innards and memory all that so should be great
Ok cool. Also do we know if it supports plugins similar to what ThrottleLauncher does? So I could replace the default weather screen with something like WeatherPanel.
Am I missing something here? I ordered and paid for a 32 gb tablet and it appears they only shipped me a 16 gb version. Here is a screen cap i got from it (attaching it)
So im not crazy right? That shows that of a 13 gb remaining?
Does it say 16GB or 32GB on the back of your box?

It definitely looks like they sent you a 16gb version. I would contact them for an exchange. As long as you got it recently I don't see them giving you any problems. They are usually easy to deal with. You haven't rooted or modded it have you? If so I advise reverting to stock before calling.

It says 32 gb. Very confused..then again I do have a fever atm so maybe I skipped over something obvious.
That's crazy! So they sent me a 16 gb version in a box labeled as 32 gb? Huh well that's inconveniant. And with the shortages I'm not sure how they will be able to send me the right one. Downer..

Sounds like Asus packed a 16GB into a 32GB box. I'd email Newegg about this immediately, but you should be fine. Do the serial numbers on the tablet and box match?
Sent from my Asus Decepticon using Tapatalk
Yep, the serial numbers do match. Which is even MORE puzzling. The hell happened?

for the hell of it maybe do a factory restore?
maybe could fix the issue?

I would say it isn't likely to fix it but still worth a try before going through the process of a return/exchange.

Hey guys
ive done a good search of the forums but cant seem to find what version of Nexus S i have.
Im in australia but bought it about 8 months ago before it was released here.
I cant remember but i think i got it from GSMNation but cant be sure
I remember that it got shipped from the US through Hawaii at some point.
I have the SAMOLED screen so am assuming i might be on the i9020T but cant be sure.
Is there any way to find out?
cheers guys

Hi guys, my brother was looking for a tablet, and guess what I ended up suggesting he get?
Well in any case, he saw a deal on newegg (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...m1043X499650Xfaa16997b4c0d9510c73e1ec5aba9518) but I am unable to tell what the serial number will be. It says the model is TF101-B1, but I don't know if that is the batch number or if that is actually the code for the 32gb one..
If anyone knows, please post here asap so I get reply to my brother! Thanks!

The B1 indicates a 32GB model. If your concern is rooting the device, with the new razorclaw app, the serial number doesn't matter, it works for B70+.
Ah, well, there was that, and also, I didn't want to recommend a model more likely to have hardware issues to my brother.. thanks!
At this point, you'll almost-certainly be fine. It's been so long since the Transformer first was released that I'd be extremely surprised if you got anything earlier than a B60. (B40s up are fine)
Yeah, just didn't wanna recommend something to my brother if it had hardware issues, mine is a b5 with slight speaker issues so I don't want him complaining to me.. Especially since I'm telling him to buy a transformer prime and give it to me instead.
Hey everyone. I have a couple questions. This guy is selling me a g2x for 130 but says the simcard wont read at all anymore...idk if its software or hardware related but I think its a good price and maybe an easy or cheap fix, right? Also i remember hearing a lot of software issues on this phone but Im assuming root has solved them all by now right? i appreciate your input guys thanks!
UPDATE:
Thanks everyone I bought it. It looks like its almost brand new. only a faint scratch on the screen otherwise it looks flawless inside and out , no water damage, no abuse. It looks like its well taken care of. I verified the IMEI is NOT blacklisted, the phone reads the SIM and shows T-Mobile in the APN, however the notification bar has an Invalid SIM message rather than displaying T-Mobile. I have searched XDA and determined it has what is called "Baseband Corruption", I am unsure on how to fix this as I have read that flashing roms doesnt solve this issue as the RIL is not flashed with custom roms. Anyone have any suggestions? Does LG use anything similar to ODIN (a program used by Samsung phones to reflash every partition)? I think if LG has some kind of software to reflash every partition maybe this will fix the baseband corruption and make the phone usable?
If it's not reading any sim cards I bet it's water damaged and would stay away.

Wouldnt that be evident though if i checked the water indicator?
Even if it's reading the Sim card, stay away froma g2x period! It had the potentials of being a great phone, but the bugs will eventually become frustrating to deal with, i.e. the browser bug, camera zooming bug, no lg camera app which takes full advantage of the camera functionality, and so on......and don't dare even entertain the thought of going back to Froyo, unless you love going through random restarts and boot loops which leads to a hard resets.
I'm just sayin!
Are those bugs gone after rooting it though?

Another reason it may not read the Sim, is that it has been blocked for some reason.
not all of them have the bugs, would I recommend this phone over the SGS II probably not, would I recommend it over the Sensation or Amaze 4G probably... This guy seems to have something against the G2X lol.
"the browser bug, camera zooming bug, no lg camera app which takes full advantage of the camera functionality" I have no clue what the Browser bug is, camera zooming bug never heard it, No LG camera app whoopty dooo! The Aosp camera and apps from the play store are fine, just install the ICS camera app from the play store is great. I think the phone is great!
Now when it comes to the SIM card slot no recommendations besides what has already been stated..

that was my other thought, not sure if its feasible to get it unblocked by taking it to a cell phone repair place or rooting it. He swears up and down theres no water damage and that i can check the indicators. He said his cousin was using it and it stopped reading the sim outta nowhere.

the bugs doesn't appear to be hardware, it's software. Originally the g2x came with froyo. After many complaints about the random restarting and GB release date. Lg rushed an update which was supposed to have fixed the restarting issue in gb. Only to give us a half baked ROM, missing the camera app which decreased the quality of the camera, whereas at one point the camera was one of their marketing ploys to sell the phone. You can try installing other roms, but there will be a give and take issue.
I'm just sayin!

Ive never been one to use any android phone stock, so rooting will help me there. Im just worried about the phone's IMEI being blocked and maybe impossible to unblock? Its a good price for $130 if theres no water damage and I wouldnt mind paying a little extra to fix the SIM issue. Im still debating whether to pick it up or not. I told him Id meet him in three hours so I am weighing my options

He said he tried it out with his and his cousins sim card. So I dont know if mine would work either. My fear is that maybe its imei is blacklisted on t-mobile and thats why it wont work.
Even if it is blacklisted, wouldnt it say when u insert your sim in? Ive seen black listed phones when u insert ur sim in it will tell you to return it back to the originally owner. Id say go meet the guy up and try, if not, I have no clue what the fix would be.

Ah, okay I will definitely look out for that. And actually the guy told me he didnt try it with his sim card because he has AT&T. The phone is his cousins and it stopped working with his cousin. i will meet him up and try to see if it works with my sim. If theres nothing on the water indicators, no blacklist message, and no missing contacts on the sim reader, then maybe its the sim reader or some dust thats causing the issue and can be replaced.

But all of those issues you stated are only on LG stock based ROMs. Custom ROMs such as CM7 don't have these issues.

That's true, but the hdmi is not working on cm7 due to nvidia, right? At least that is what it was last I checked.
