[Q] Shortcut keys on dock stop working - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

TouchLockPro G-Sensor problem with HD2?

I tried TouchLockPro.
It seems that it cannot read the HD2 G-Senor properly. From time to time, it gets the correct orientation, but most of the time its doesn't sense any changes. For example, I flipped the phone around (using the movement defined by the default setting) more than five times and I succeeded in unlocking only once. Is anybody else using it?
Everybody happy with the G-Sensor in Touch Lock Pro? I have no idea why it isn't working on my HD2.
No, it doesn't work reliably on the HD2. I tried it for a few days previously, and sometimes, it would become impossible to unlock, using G-sensor, Vol down/up or even the light sensor. So, I've uninstalled it.
I've been using it for a couple of months now and I've not had a problem. Seldom does it not respond first time when I get the gesture correct. It never fails to respond to the volume control. My only problem with it is that it clashes with Throttlelock after going into standby so that I have to remove the battery.
and i have no time when it responds correct;y...almosy everytime it mess up everything, so i am back to standart lock-by pressing the end key

Volume control? How does it work in TouchLockPro?

With default settings it will unlock by pressing Volume Down followed by Volume Up.

Ah! This is not listed as one of the ways to unlock (2.4 how to unlock) so I never knew that it was possible.
TouchLockPro on HD2 does not disable buttons in call
Hi, I cannot configure TouchLockPro to disable my hardware buttons when receiving an incoming call. I have switched on the Telephone API but still I can answer incoming calls using a button, which I try to prevent. I have played with the option of thye TAPI configuration screen without succes. What am I doing wrong? Who owns a HD2 and have it working and want to post the correct settings? Thank you.
regards, Danny Groeneveld
I have a Touch Pro2, and I have my G-Sensor set to unlock on upside-down, Portrait, upside-down, Portrait. What I've noticed is that it makes a difference HOW it gets down and then back up. For instance, it works fine as long as I rotate the phone (it's facing me) counterclockwise down and then clockwise back up. But if I rotate clockwise down and then counterclockwise back up, it never unlocks. Doing a clockwise rotate down and back up does work just fine if it's followed by either a forward or backward flip and then back up. But two full 360 degree turns in ANY direction don't seem to work.
Fortunately, I'm right-handed, so it's working out well for me.
P.S. This is one of the best apps EVER! Thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOO much to the author for developng it!!!!

Keyboard Dock - Randomly Stops Working

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.

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!

Question LE2115_11_F.20: Home button sometimes not working

Hi everyone,
For the past few weeks now, the Home button on my navigation bar has become less responsive, or I should say, sometimes it just doesn't work in some applications, but not always the same applications. Same for the button with the three horizontal bars (I can't remember what it's called, sorry).
The only button that works consistently is the Back button, thankfully, otherwise I'd be stuck on the same app until I turn to dust...
Is it an issue others here have experienced, and if so, how did you solve it if you did?
I seem to remember a setting that would make the touchscreen more or less receptive to inputs, but I can't find it anymore.

I switched to navigation gestures and never look to return to 3 button.

I've tried that in the past, on this phone and on others, but I don't like it. Maybe I'm too clumsy, I don't know, but for me it's hit-or-miss more often than not, so I stick to using my three buttons.
Do you know where I can find this setting on touchscreen sensitivity?
Maybe my problem comes from Microsoft Launcher after all, because I've reverted to the system launcher and so far, no worries.

Nova beta did the same to me.
Yeah, maybe that's it, but up until now MS Launcher was working fine. Strange. I'll leave things as they are for now and I'll keep you posted. Thanks and have a great weekend!
