Asus PADPHONE 2

[artery]

i think its because of the new s4 pro chipset.. i had jb on my transformer pad, and all those games runs flawlessly..

i miss playing my favourite games

Does this mean we will never be able to play those games? Or we just need to wait for them to update the games?

 

[kennyboy]

seems like there are issues with other games as well, demons score, nfs most wanted not working as well

Demon score is Tegra exclusive, NFS and Avengers both works on my Nexus 4, same SOC as pf2, so shouldn't be S4 problem.

lol. Pls dock your phone in your station and check again.

It will only show when you dock it. ( think about it and you should know why)

After the OTA from starhub and JB, the phone started to auto off by itself. My took only one day and is done. So far so good after 're flash of the JB firmware. Yes, all data will be wipe so do a backup b4 sending to Asus.

i think that's 2 different problems. mine couldn't be switched on at all after it auto off by itself.

anyway i sent it to asus already

both actually....there's once the phone auto shut off and wont turn on for good 5 hrs. So far so good for the 2nd day, not seen any auto shut off as yet. Accordingly to Asus, is the OTA firmware corrupted.

Anyone here feels that padfone2 station is very hard to write on? like apps like supernote etc, the tablet doesnt really sense what you write.

Eg. when you write 5, there are times that it loses the "point" of contact".

Is this suppose to be normal? Getting quite fustrated when I wanted to take notes with the station.

I think I have the same problem but it should not be normal. I tried my phone docked on other demo padphone stations and they are ok. Might need to bring back to device centre
