[Q] Firmware 8.2.3.13/Dock EP101-0209 no dock battery icon? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As many others, just got the firmware update a little while ago.
firmware is now 8.2.3.13 and dock is EP101-0209
is everyone else who got this update missing the dock battery icon that they added on the beta firmware a few days ago?

I did not have the beta update installed but I can confirm that there is no dock battery meter.
Too bad... Maybe they're really getting it right for the 3.1 update.
Here's hoping!

No battery meter here, what a load.
Mine has now stopped telling me that the dock is charging the tablet since update. It is still charging, just no lightning symbol on battery.

I liked it, I could look down and see when the dock had died.

Updated and now my dock has stopped responding and my internet browser isn't working And also no dock battery icon.

Yep, no battery meter for the dock, although, it is working really well!!

that battery meter must of caused some problems or the guy on here was giving us a look on some of his personal work not approved

Lol, dont blame you... I'm not entirely sure what this whole blob thing is.
All I know is that the stock one is huge, and the cwm blob is small, so guessing all it does is install clockwork mod.

i just paul revere'd the news over to modaco... see what happens.

Do you guys know why the number 1 and number 6 on the keyboard have circles around the numbers? PM me if you dont want to derail the thread.

Seems to have fixed the disconnect issues but no seperate battery icon for the dock. Happy just to be able to use the dock so I can wait on an icon.

Well. The update has been pretty terrible for me. I have to reload the page in the browser about 8 times to see a page. Restarted the tab twice now. Sooo.. Question now is, can I roll back?

I know that this workaround it's not likable, but did you tried a factory reset?
I upgraded as well and everything works as it should.

Uggh. Please dont tell me that. If I get really desperate I will.

Running the update right now. In the last half hour, the keyboard dock froze up at least 4 times, and I restarted the TF three times. It ran pretty decently over the last couple days.
I'll report back shortly after the update is done.

[Q] wake problem after docking

I received my Malata dock this week, and have been using it for charging so far (nothing else connected to the dock but the power connector)
After docking, I'm frequently unable to wake the tab after it sleeps, and have to long press the power, at which point it resets.
I'm running tnt lite 4.1, but tried with 3.14 and had the same results. Anyone else seeing similarities with their docks?

Seems much better with that kernel so far, definitely worth a try if anyone else is having this problem!
Same here, after over 24 hrs testing new kernel, no more SOD upon removal from dock. I think this can be posted as a definite [SOLUTION] for this problem.
It would be nice if someone would start a [PROBLEM / SOLUTION] rollup thread that could be stickied.
I would if I had the time. Any takers?

Hey guys the all the info that I have posted is in the development section I am just on the forum and the irc channel all the time so that's how I get the info just keep looking around and usually someone has already encountered your problem and has possibly found a fix. The g tablet has excellent people that look and are willing to help

[Q] Software Update?

Asus just pushed an update to my Transformer overnight -- anyone else get it? It's not the V8.2.3.9 as I had already installed that update.
No indication on Asus's site of a new update so I'm curious about it....
The 2.3.12 beta some people have been getting, perhaps?
Build is 8.2.3.13-20110511
Asus has released a 8.2.3.13 update that includes dock firmware EP101-0209. It lacks the battery charge icon that the beta 8.2.3.12 firmware had (dock FW EP101-0208). This update patches the vold exploit used to root with gingerbreak. Last time I checked this update was in the US only so far. This is all I know as I haven't installed.
Roach is working on implementing this update into Prime.
I just got a notification of this, has anyone installed it yet? Wondering if there are any issues
Has anyone in the UK recieved the OTA update yet? Do i need t have registered my product with ASUS to get the update? Thanks!

I received the update this morning and installed it...
I was experiencing the keybord delay...and as i'm typing this on the keyboard dock now...there is still a delay. The wifi disconnect issues appear to have been resolved for me. I've been connected now for at least 2 hours and no disconnect.
ASUS: Please fix the keyboard delay...it's very annoying!!!

A BIG Bug! with opening files in file explorer!

Suppose you are using default file explorer or any other one from market and you have a list of files like images/videos....try opening one of them! Screen gets dim and nothing happens!
It's stupid!
Hrm, doesn't seem to be the case for me. I'm able to open all media types from file browser on 3.2
Same for me, update seems ok so far, and it's nice to finally have battery usage.

I understand it may frighten users and I changed topic. However, it is a real serious bug!
Somebody in a thread below said after a reboot with it docked the problem comes back and you have to undock it again. What's odd though is I wonder why this only affects some peeps? I have mine in the dock always and have had it in there through the whole update and after and have NOT had this issue and even have done a couple reboots since. And I have an old ass B30 or something dock and tablet.

But it is only a bug for certain configurations. Others seem to not have any issue. I watched 2 movies after installing the update. It could be specific to the type of files you watch or how you encoded them.

No idea why it hits some. I had my dock throughout update connected and even hard reset it after. I just sent message to Asus support and also tweeted them.
The bug comes back each time i start my TF. So i have to rotate it everytime in order to have it work. Annoying. Asus, come on. You gotta be kidding.
I have tried a few things including uninstalling my RockPlayer app to see if this fixed it but no luck... The issue comes back after each restart. I hope there is something we are missing. It only happens for a few of us so it must be the individual configurations... I can set the default to my preferred player for my videos but it still affects other apps/programs that need the "complete action using" dialog box...
*EDIT*
This is wierd, I went back to reinstall my Rockplayer from the Market and it gave me a agreement message like it is the first time I have used it... Now Movies show up in my Market tabs next to Apps/Books. I could swear it wasn't there yesterday after the update??? Anyone else?

Does 360 Hibernation Master app work on Marshmallow for Z5??

Does anyone know if this app works on the Z5 using Marshmallow?? Please confirm.
Thanks!
I'll try and give you feedback.but keep in mind my Z5 is not rooted

Joseph,
Thank you for offering. That's fine, as I do not plan to root the Xperia X Performance when I buy it this summer either.
I have a similar thread going for the X Performance, and a guy in that thread already verified that it DOES work on the Z5 running Marshmallow! I'd already tried this app before on my Z3 (I now have the S7, but don't want to keep it, so waiting for X Performance to come out this summer so I can switch my S7 for that). It worked perfectly, but it doesn't work on my S7. But the guy in the other thread CONFIRMED it DOES work on the Z5 with Marshmallow too!
I would highly recommend Joseph that you skim through that thread, and then do yourself the favor of buying the full version of 360. You won't regret it. (But understand this app does not seem to work on Samsung phones for whatever reason. Not sure on others. Just know it does for Sony Xperia.)
Let me know if you do, how it goes, how you like it, and if ANY issues arise from having 360 on your phone.
Sorry for late reply.Was busy.downloading it right now.

No problem. Just remember to enable EVERYTHING in 360, get the full paid version, leave phone on but screen off (and NOT plugged in) overnight, and take note of what percentage the battery is at RIGHT before you go to bed, as well as first thing in the morning. See that thread for any other questions, and if not listed there, ask me here.
Thanks!!

If so, GREAT!! Yeah even 1% is a lot. lol You were probably like RIGHT on the border of that 1% when you went to bed.
It's not really called "Doze Mode". That's a Marshmallow thing. It's just the 360 app doin' its thing. lol

I agree. I'm COUNTING THE DAYS until X Perf is released. I hate that it's not 'til like June though. Wish it was May or even April. Don't know why Sony put it off so long? The Z5 came out like last Fall. April would be at least 5-6 months since the Z5's release, so that's when it should be coming out, not Summer. Sony needs to just release ONE phone a year and make it in the Spring cuz Spring is an awesome time to buy a new phone. Weather's getting warmer, women are wearin' less clothes, more fun outdoor stuff starts happening, etc! lol
I see this app is newer and has same UI with the one from you, also it has more downloaded and rated. I see your one didn't work on your S7, have you tried mine ever?

Of course you need to root before do something on kernel settings (CPU, GPU, IO,...).

360 has a CPU lock but doesn't require a root. So I dunno.

360's CPU Hibernation Lock didn't need a root, so maybe we're thinking about something different?
So I tried the Hibernation Manager app last night on my S7. It unfortunately had no impact at all on the battery life (6 hours of sleep). It went down about 3-4%, which is the same it does without any "power saver" help. I will stop by my parents today and try putting it on their phone (Xperia Z1s). Then tomorrow I'll have them check and see if it did anything and get back to you. Hopefully it works on Sony Xperia phones at least.
Unfortunately, 360 Hibernation Master apparently DOES NOT work on the Xperia X series. I have no idea why. Sucks. Tried on my brand new int'l dual-SIM X Performance, and it didn't seem to do anything.
I tried out a couple other apps that were similar but they didn't seem to work either. So I guess for the time being anyway 360 is only for the Xperia Z series phones. FYI
However, Stamina Mode DOES seem to have been properly fixed, so you can still use that.
Note: Just remember that if you use the Visual Voicemail app that after turning off SM you will need to go into VV's settings and re-enable VV cuz it doesn't seem to do it automatically.

Why you wana calibrate unnecessarily and that too even without root ? U want to calibrate battery, do it non-root method way
Method 1
Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off.
Turn it on again and let it turn itself off.
Plug your phone into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.
Unplug your charger.
Turn your phone on. It's likely that the battery indicator won't say 100 percent, so plug the charger back in (leave your phone on) and continue charging until it says 100 percent on-screen as well.
Unplug your phone and restart it. If it doesn't say 100 percent, plug the charger back in until it says 100 percent on screen.
Repeat this cycle until it says 100 percent (or as close as you think it's going to get) when you start it up without it being plugged in.
Now, let your battery discharge all the way down to 0 percent and let your phone turn off again.
Fully charge the battery one more time without interruption and you should have reset the Android system's battery percentage.

This is kinda great idea. Anybody just post a screenshot of changelog as soon as the Update of Vivo Nex comes so that some people who passes by who are suspicious or reluctant about Vivo software updates can see the proof .

I do not want to calibrate my battery. This is what the AccuBattery terms for reading the battery consumption. Read the entire message and the screenshot message.
May I know how to revert back to previous version? The battery drain is so bad at this firmware. And how to download the previous version?
Same here quite the drain after the new update. Still bearable but way better before...
need some experts to teach us how to downgrade..
this is link for the previous version.
