Keyboard Dock - Randomly Stops Working - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone else that got their dock have random problems where the dock just stops working? I've had it happen a bunch this morning, right in the middle of using it and it stops responding. The tablet still works, mouse cursor is still there, just no response from the keyboard.
I'm rooted running the latest update, will probably revert to stock and see what happens.

There's already another thread going about this. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063853
The solution for now is to disable the trackpad by clicking the disable trackpad button on the keyboard. The keyboard works fine without the trackpad, but will randomly stop working when the trackpad is enabled. ASUS is already aware of the issue and is working on a solution.

[Q] Shortcut keys on dock stop working

After the last firmware update, I've noticed that occasionally, my shortcut keys on the top row of the keyboard dock will stop working. It seems to happen most often when the TF is sitting overnight and then in the morning when I try to adjust brightness or open the browser using the shortcuts, they won't respond. The rest of the keyboard operates normally, with the exception of the top row.
In order to get the top row working again, I have to reboot.
Has anyone else experienced this?
My shortcut keys have worked every time for mine on all 3 firmware versions up to .13

I never had this happen on .12, but this happens regularly with .13 for me.
This also happens to me on .13, the Audio and music keys still work but Wifi through Settings keys stop working until a reboot.

How about the touch pad?
Not to hijack this thread but lately I have experienced that my touch pad is not working after I close the transformer. A reboot rectifies the issue but it's annoying. Do you think this is a related problem?

Will your trackpad shortcut key turn the trackpad back on when this happens?

Nope but the on-screen display works; all special shortcut keys actually work. It's only the touch pad that won't cooperate. It seems to happen whenever the screen goes to sleep
I am surprised by this problem. I've been using the dock for weeks now without trouble. I installed PRIME 1.3 when it was released and never had trouble with anything. Is it possible that an app can cause this disruption?

[Q] SL101 Keyboard ICS

So I loaded the latest Kang Rom on my SL101 and although it says that the keyboard dock is 100% working, it is not working correctly for the Slider. If I have the "Use physical keyboard" set to off, the onscreen keyboard will never open even if the tablet is closed. If I have "Use physical keyboard" set to on, the onscreen keyboard opens always, even if I have the physical keyboard out, which still works btw. Is there anyway I can fix this?

The transformer roms (as far as I know) are not guaranteed to work on the sl101. I would check with the devs of the rom you used if it supports sl101
Sent from my CM9 powered Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium HD
revolver rom is compatible with slider, try with that rom

[Q] Can someone on Stock ICS try this?

If you have a TF101 and a dock, with Stock ICS, can you please tell me:
when docked:
1. does clicking the mouse wake your tablet from sleep?
2. does moving the touchpad wake your tablet from sleep?
3. does anything else wake up your tablet, besides opening it up, and the power button?
Thanks, I'm trying to figure out if my dock is normal, or if it has a bad I/O, and I'd rather not have to flash the stock rom just to find out, it's a pain if you're just going to use it for 5 minutes.
touching the mouse pad does wake up mine...
Touching the pad does wake up the screen. Clicking the mouse button also wakes up the screen for me too.
Yes, touching the mousepad / moving mouse cursor / pressing left (only left, not right) button under mousepad wakes my TF up. But that's about it, besides this and power button nothing else does that.
all right, thanks everyone, I guess it sounds like my dock is normal then. (somebody on here told me I might have a bad I/O on my dock and might need to RMA it, but I guess mine is fine)

dock track pad stopped working, external mouse ok

I have a tf201 dock for my 700, had it since I owned the prime. Never had an issue with it, but I just noticed that the trackpad has stopped responding. when i drag across it I see no pointer, but if I plug in an external mouse and use that instead, everything is fine. I have no problems typing with it at all.
has anyone else experienced this at all? Any fixes or something that locks/unlocks the trackpad?

Hi! I'm the idiot that posted this above. Apparently, I'm not too bright and don't think before posting. So allow me to answer my own dumb question,... its the 4th button from the left along the top row. trackpad lock and unlock button. I will now commence flaming myself....
have a nice day!
i was just Googling how to disable the track pad and found my answer and was just going to post that for you. I keep hitting mine accidentally and it's annoying, glad you can disable and enable it so easily

Home screen cut off

When I open my keyboard in POCO Launcher, the portion of the screen where the keyboard was gets cut off, making it unusable. It seems to happen as well when using my keyboard in any app and then switching to the home screen (without exiting the keyboard first). It stays this way until I reboot, and after that it just happens again. Is this a known issue or am I a special case? Anyone know how to fix this? (I'm on 12.2.4.0(RJKMIXM))

Thanks to you I (accidentally) found a fix for it: I disabled 'Hide full screen indicator', which seems to have solved the issue!
