Malfunctions

What should I do if Wi-Fi does not work when I exit Sleep?

Update BIOS to latest version (currently A08) andDrivers for Wi-Fi / BT (3.7.2.59, A04).

There are problems with the screen. The backlight works, responds to the buttons, to the touch of the screen, but there is no image or different colors of the glow occur. What to do?

There is such a problem on some devices (it turns out on what). It is solved by turning off the device and turning it on again. If it does not help, then in the off state, hold down the power button and the volume key down (you should get into the BIOS) after pressing "Esc" and continue loading Windows.

Guys, something I can not see the micro-HDMI is it or not? If not, then how to connect it to an external monitor or TV. By USB-adapters does not pull, the picture is lost. In my understanding, this is a universal device and it must be connected to the external screen once, twice, without any problems, or I am wrong. Otherwise, the meaning of this device is lost. Now in this regard, I use Acer W3 and very often I have to connect to an external screen for work and for me it is very important.

We passed everything, and the USB adapters are all this bullshit of poor quality goods, well, they don’t even pull the lowest video quality even if you crack the picture begins to fall after 5 minutes of viewing. No thanks, see for yourself.

Well, you know better) Fortunately, this port does not interest me at all.

[Vitee_Ok]

WizardWise,Acer products have always suffered from low quality, unlike Dell.

[fi32dll]

WizardWise,
I agree about the warranty, but the site states that you can attach a warranty to another region
And as always, there are some nuances.

WizardWise @ 10/20/2013, 2:16 PM

But this does not prevent small firms to carry it before. As it was with the iphone5s .. it only recently officially started selling

Officially, it will start selling on October 25.

Judging by the pictures, either one or 2 centimeters from each other under one protective net (which is not far from the first option!) ..

[skat1234]

I'm thinking of buying this device.

It became interesting to what extent it is advisable to install Win 7 instead of Win 8 for this miracle ?!

P.S. I do not want to say that Win 8 is bad, I just don’t want to get involved with Metro.

Spartanez06 @ 10/20/2013, 15:04

the rest seems to be the most common.

Yes, and lenovo is an example, there is a usual capacitive touchscreen (which is used in almost all recently released tablets), it is quite accurate, unlike resistive (old sensor sensors), but not adapted for active styluses, therefore the usual passive stylus is used ( but his touch accuracy is worse at times + the tip is thick, that is, you can’t draw it precisely, it can only be used in ordinary cases), by the way, I’m not aware of what exactly the digitizer stuck there, mb he recognizes the pressure force, just lot. (but this is navyatli)

WizardWise,
As for the speakers, everyone saves as much as they can (and the current line of tablets shouts, we are cheap and affordable, but how exactly they reduced the cost - you need to look out for Pts carefully))). Variant two: Dell decided that sound quality is the last thing to think about when developing 8 "inch tablets, and this happened randomly based on considerations (they will not listen from such small speakers, so why strain), or they deliberately decided to cut costs like American Airlines in the case of the first olive, only here already with holes on the body for the speakers and protective nets).
In general, judging by the cost and thickness, Toshiba encore took care of the quality of the iron better than others))). (well, or this is a strange marketing xs)

I do not want to say that Win 8 is bad, I just don’t want to get involved with Metro.

The current wines 8 uses an OEM subscription, they sew a license to the BIOS ... so, firstly, reinstalling Windows will be tough and not advisable (most likely you will lose the license and "money"), secondly, there may be problems with the drivers (+ 7 wines are a little sharpened under the touch-screen). But this is everyone's choice.

For me, in tablets one of the most important moments is weight and thickness, and here Toshiba did not take care of anyone (

Well takto da)) so it)). But there are definitely good speakers there))) ... with some kind of "Dolbi ..." And a full info will be released - it will be seen. Somehow there was already a discussion about the fact that in the encore they stuck a percent better, atom z3770 (1.5-2.4GHz), and not 3740d (1.3-1.8), which is why it is so thick and heavy, but for now this is just rumor and most likely not true.

IMHO, in this case, when it comes to one line, a causal relationship is better than the processor — a thicker device is missing.

Yes, I also think so. Just on some American site was info to sell, and it was indicated percent. But I think that the percentage will be like all z3470D.

[Wizardwise]

skat1234,
Do not worry! Windows will be there 8.1 and that means:
1. the start button will be in place ..
2. the ability to immediately download the desktop, bypassing the "tiles" ..

[skat1234]

I looked at the Toshiba Encore feature and noticed an interesting little thing ->headphone x microphone combo jack.

Interestingly, does this device have it?

[Wizardwise]

skat1234,
Everywhere, where one 3.5 jack mic + headphones are combined ..
and rarely 2 separate ones .. and this device is exactly one option.

those. "or either"!
combo does not mean "simultaneously" in the sense of use. This is only a technical performance.
