Using devices, which relay on this patch, here is a list of those:
- ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 (mainlined)
- ASUS Transformer Prime TF201 (mainlined)
- ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T/TF300TG/TF300TL (mainlined)
- ASUS Transformer Infinity TF700T (mainlined)
- ASUS VivoTab RT TF600T (WIP)
- ASUS Transformer Pad TF701T (mainlined)

Non ASUS device is Microsoft Surface RT

Tested by many owners and users for more than a year iirc.
