What does your TF do when closing the dock? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What does your TF do when closing the dock? Will it stay off and asleep?
I just got my B40 dock back after RMA (timeline and replaced parts number summarized here). I didn't really pay attention to how it was before I sent it because I only had it for a few days, except that it didn't sleep even when MobileDock Battery saving mode was set. Now after the RMA, it stays asleep correctly, but when I closed it in a darkened room, I noticed a light coming from the gap. It woke up!
In short, opening and closing the dock would behave like this:
1. While open, press the power button on the tablet (or the lock key on the dock). Table would go to deep SLEEP and would not wake up with a keyboard tap. However, as I close the dock and it approaches about 5 degree angle, the screen would turn ON and, worse, it stays on. Pressing the power button would not turn it off.
2. While ON and not asleep, close it. As it approaches 5 degree angle, the screen would turn OFF. It would turn ON as soon as the dock is opened again (regardless of how long I left it closed).
FWIW, the TF is B50 on Revolution ROM 2.1.0.
Edit: reluctant of another RMA, is there a microswitch inside the dock that detects the open/close position? If so, I might just disconnect it unless there is a software fix.

There is no switch. There's a magnet right beneath the - button that tells your TF to go to sleep when you close it and wake up when you open it. Don't put it to sleep before you close it. I have b60. When I press the power button before I close it, it would still stay asleep and wakes up when I open it. It's not a dock issue. It's a TF issue. May be the b50 is built differently. Don't know.

I uninstalled "No Lock" and now the screen stays off in scenario 1 above. But looking at CPU Spy, it wasn't deep-sleeping and instead it stayed at 216.
Not doubting you, but how did you know that your B60 was deep-sleeping for sure?

I don't. All I know is that my battery lasts forever. Besides, if it doesn't go to deep sleep, then fine. I don't care. Like I said, as long as the battery lasts me the whole day without me worrying about charging, I'm good.
Why are people so anal about this sleep thing? Get an ipad if you want your device to deep sleep that badly.

I think there is a difference in being anal and trying to be sure about what our device is donig -- especially after one has just received it from RMA.
Being in XDA already makes us more attentive about our devices than the regular population, so can't blame someone for checking.

Actually, no. I think it's the opposite. If you're here in xda then chances are you are fine with some of the imperfections that come with our devices. That's why we mod.
It's the ipad users who expect things to be perfect. Myself and many others have pointed this out many times. iOS devices crash just as often as everything else. The only reason people think they don't is because when they do crash there's no error message. One moment you're in an app and the next you're on your home screen. iOS is built that way. It's like sweeping the dirt under the rug to give the impression that the place is spotless.

why are we even talking about iPad? Geez...

Turn off Fully Charged notification

I hate that notification because I use my phone for my alarm and it lights up in the middle of the night. Has anybody figured out a way to turn that notification off? I have looked and not found anything on the phone or in the forums.
If you can't find a way to suppress the notification, do what I do...turn the phone over. If you don't have the Body Glove case that lifts the screen off the furniture and are concerned about scratches, put it on a paper towel or similar item to protect it. I use a wash cloth.
would also like to know how to turn that stupid notification off - software based and not using a towel though
I don't know much yet but I was digging around in root explorer and if you go to /system/media there are a bunch of .qmg files for battery related stuff, and two of them are named chargingwarning.qmg and Disconnected.qmg. Could one of these be the file for the fully charged notification?

Probably not because the notifications are all text, and QMGs are the 3d files used at boot-up. Most likely those animations are used in the battery meter that is displayed when the phone is off (turn your phone off and plug it in).
This won't help with the light, but the sound can be fixed.

It is confirmed fix in the 2.2 release - at least the JI6 build we are all playing with. They moved it to the notification bar.
Bumpage!
Been a lurker but just recently got my Captivate. Great forum here! Looking forward to contribute as well.
Well my issue with the "Fully Charged" battery notification is the display will stay on for the entire night. When I wake up in the morning, I see the phone's display on with the notification. Is this normal? I think this was happening just recently but I can't remember. Shouldn't the display turn off after the set amount time of inactivity? Thanks.
Nevermind, I figured it out. Within the development settings, the option to never allow the phone to sleep while plugged into the usb was checked. I wonder why that was checked.

Ok, I THOUGH disabling that option would put the display to sleep when the notification comes on but it doesn't. =(
Is this normal behavior? The screen stays lit after the notification is on? The only reason why i'm concern is if I'm plugging it in night after night and it's on that particular screen for hours at a time, there might be some burn in issues.

Not likely. It's not a rear projection tv or a CRT monitor. Burn-in problems died with those.

Guess you haven't seen some of the demo Captivate at your local AT&T stores. Seeing the burned in images on those beautiful SAMOLED screen just kills a little bit of me.
In any case, so it's normal for the screen to take on after the message notification comes on?

None of the models I saw had burn-in at all. I got my phone on August 30th of this year. The phone had been on the shelves since July. But I would imagine it's normal for the screen to come on.
I got my phone only three weeks ago, so the phone sitting on display has probably been there a long time. And yeah, samoled screen can get burned in. well guess I'll have to charge it during the day time for now until I can figure out a way to disable the pop up.
Oh my worry is that the screen might be in the on state with the same image for hours while I sleep. That's something I can't leave to chance.

As long as you're not using a Samsung Dock or have the Stay Awake option checked off in settings, it won't stay on. I watch my phone every night. It usually finishes charging long before I ever go to sleep (case in point, it's 3:11am, and the phone was done around 1am) and the screen always times out and turns itself off. It doesn't come back on either.

Ok, yeah that's what I figured. Thanks for confirming it for me. I do have that option "not checked". Something might be preventing it to fall back asleep.
Is there any log within the file system which might keep track of system events? I might have to do a little digging around.
Thanks for your input.

I don't believe there's any logs, but you might have some luck installing logcat from the market and checking that after one night

Charged notification PROBLEM SOLVED !
PROBLEM SOLVED ! NO COST !
I saw this suggestion in another forum and it WORKS, so I'm passing it on !
Set the global notifications to SILENT.
Set the notification on Gmail to any ringtone, NOT DEFAULT.
Set the notification on messaging to any ringtone, NOT DEFAULT.
You'll still have a tone when you 1st plug the phone in to the charger, but NO tone when it's fully charged.
Where are these settings? I can't find them any where.

[Q] screen activation

1st, I'm spanish I'll try you understand what I say
I see that the tablet with the screen off (locked) can be activated without pressing the power button. Only need to put "near the dock"*
*making like you open the tablet+dock, but is not needed that the tablet was connected with the dock, I dnt know if someone else was noticed that... but I'm a bit curious about that and i want to know how its work? (magnet?, gyroscope?, magnet+gyroscope?) if someone knows it
and I say it to other people that dnt now this, THANKS
SOLVED MISTERY!
Like some says here its a magnet near the backspace key, exactly the "¿/¡" key
here is a really good cover mod idea: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1507548 thanks to MrNago
nobody has any idea?
I think there is a switch in the hinge maybe? Seems that would be the easiest way to have the screen turn on while opening the lid while its on the dock.
I test one more time and I noticed that the system is only at the right side of the tablet and dock, like u see in this image. And its not needed any contact, but it need tablet and dock really near.
I think is a magnet system, but i havent any magnets at home to make a try...
edit: i have an error in the image, looking the camera i can see that the tablet is in the wrong side, we must see the camera down. Not at the top like in the image xD
ww.youtube.com/watch?v=k-6dKsGJ4VY
I see nothing in this disassembly to make this activation, this is curious, i want too know how it works
turning on via opening.
i tried looking using a magnetic viewer screen there are several places in the screen and in the keyboard that show magnetism, on the screen the two speakers are the main places and in the keyboard below the backspace key is quite strong as well.
i tried replicating the action using a strong magnet but i could not get it to work only when help above the keyboard does it work so there may be more then one place it looks at, i will try again when i have more time and then post results.
Interesting discovery! I don't thnk anyone actually tried this, though many speculated there were magnets in the base, many users said (and I agreed at the time) that the mechanism to wake the device was located in the hinge, though having a function like this actually does make more sense than an actual hardware switch that could fail at some point.
You should make a video and I will add this information to my epic noob thread!
thanks for replies, i tried with a small magnet without results, and try in other positions with the dock and negative results too...
I'm sure that the magnet of the backspace key its the "switch" or one of them, they are 2 maybe....
Guessing here, probably not just a magnet, maybe even an RFID chip of some sort..
Its a magnet that does this. Don't doubt. Believe. Removing the magnet and putting it back in is part of my hard drive soldering procedure.
it is a microswitch in the hinge, all experimentation I have done supports this, the only thing left for me to do is pull apart my dock and take high res pictures of the microswitch seeing as you all seem to need proof of it

Stevie, i did think so as well, but the device will wakewhen placed on the dock and removed even if it is not affixed in the hinges and even if the hinge does not move, i don't think you are getting what poster is saying, i will make a video myself and post to demonstrate.
HERE
Thereis also probably a switch in the hinge as well for sure, but this does seem important information, wonder what the mechanisms in the body of the tf are..i enjoy solid state switches like this
Oddly enough this is confirmed using Paul's ICS and my dock not connected. Totally bypassed the lockscreen. Held it as close as I could for about 5-7 seconds then on came the screen. Tried this at least 10 times (five of which I just was amazed) and everytime opened right up. Nice catch:thumbup:

You guys are right, there is some kind of magnet. For those that doubt it, like I did, try this:
First off, undock the tablet, so that you have the 2 items apart.
1. Lock the tablet, so that the screen is off.
2. On the dock, rotate the hinge outwards, so that you can put together tablet+keyboard without docking.
3. Actually put them together, so that their position is exactly the same as docked, except they aren't.
4. Screen should turn on. Mine certainly does!
Edit: as you can see, there is no connected circuitry between them and the tablet is waking up. Don't know about locking though, but I hope this gets things clearer and Modding nearer!

Here, I found it out
I opened a DIY thread: [DIY] SmartAss Cover for your Asus TF101

[Q] TF101 Screen won't turn on

Hi everyone, this is my first post here. Thanks in advance for any help that you folks can provide.
I've had the TF101 for about six months now, and it's been fine. I was using it yesterday on the train and all was good, but when I got home and took it out of my bag it didn't seem to start up. I thought it might have been a battery issue, so I let it charge overnight. Tried starting it up this morning and I got the same results. So I started looking in to other issues.
The tablet is definitely starting, adb will recognize it in its list of devices, and if I plug it in to my tv or desktop monitor w/ HDMI, I can see and interact w/ the Transformer UI (of course this is kind of painful since I have to do some guessing about where to put my fingers).
I had rooted it using rebound821's scripts and directions here, so tried an unroot to see if that was the problem. I ended up with the same results.
Does anyone here have any insights as to what the problem may be? I'm hoping to avoid sending it back to ASUS, so I'm fine w/ opening it up to look for loose cables.
So I thought that brightness might be the problem. Maybe it was set to 0 and I just wasn't seeing anything on my screen. Sadly, that doesn't seem to be the case.
I tried setting brightness at the path below to to 0, 50, 100.
/sys/devices/platform/pwm-backlight/backlight/pwm-backlight/brightness
Still no luck.
Has anyone encountered anything remotely similar to this (even if similar is just a dead screen)?
There have been others with dead screens reporting what you are, at least I have read a few reports, I think they just had to get them RMA'd, I don't recall anyone 'fixing' a dead screen, especially if you still have adb and touch working then the screen itself and backlight seem to have broken completely- some have reported the backlight dying and thinking the screen was broken, but it was just the backlight (I guess in bright light they could see pixels working, but couldn't make out what was on the screen without the backlight). I still think they had to get it repaired either by Asus or by someone who was capable of doing internal repairs with replacement parts..sorry for your luck
Looks like I'll have to send it back. I took it into the brightest light I could find and couldn't see anything at all. Guess it's the screen and maybe the backlight too. I'm pretty disappointed this happened, the only thing I can think of is that the bag I had it in was hanging from the chair in front of me on the train and it was swaying a little, and that shouldn't be enough to dislodge a connection. Either that or just some freak hardware failure. Still, I guess it's not that common of an occurrence. Thanks for the reply, I'll slink off and try to get in touch w/ Asus now.
I have experience same
My TF101 broke in the same way, screen blank. Conected to tv I`ve got image digital touch work. I shut down my TF101 normaly and screen never go back to live again. Tablet was in a protective bag (when I trave by car), just no reason for not working ( no problem at screen, previously, screen perfect - no dead pixels)
Did you guys get this resolved? I had the EXACT same thing happen yesterday. Was working just fine. Put it in its sleeve, into a protective case, into a briefcase, got home and dead.
HDMI works. I tried to call Asus but they say i'm out of warranty.
Thanks in advance.
Must be something wrong with the connections that it decays over time. I've had mine since October last year and its been fine except for today when I brought it home it wouldn't work.
I was able to fix it though. I held it vertically with the bottom edge down and tapped it firmly on my desk a couple of times. The screen came back on. There is a strong possibility that this will happen again and my tap fix won't work, but it's working at the moment

I had exactly the same problem discussed in this thread. I was also able to bring the screen of my TF101G to life by tapping it firmly on my desk with the bottom edge. It works for now. But it is certainly disconcerting to know that some connection in this rather expensive gadget are loose and all this can happen again. I guess I will not carry my transformer around any more - just leave it at home...

Same problem here had my unlocked bootloader tf101 for awhile now, one of the first ones out... had a great life gave it to my girl when i got the transformer prime and the screen just went out yesterday, still goes in apx mode and still recognized by computer, screen just straight up died, think it's too late for a manufacture warranty, maybe ill look but think it's gonna be no dice... sucks obviously something in the design to make this happen to so many of them...
My TF101 appears to have a dead screen. I am rooted and running Revolver Custom Rom. When connected to my pc, I am able to recognize my device. My screen will not turn on so I cannot use recovery to go back to stock. I am set up to use ADB, however, I am not very knowledgable with ADB. I am convinced I have a bad screen and I am still under warranty. Is there a way to return the TF101 back to stock using ADB? If anyone can point me in the right direction, I can probably figure it out. Otherwise, I may just try and replace my screen and see how that works out. Thanks for the help.
My backlight died on Tuesday. Similar situation of working in the morning, headed into work with it in my bag, no brutal knocks or anything but one jolt just must of finished it off after a year and 2 weeks abuse (yes 2 weeks out of warrenty).
Going to attempt to take it apart this afternoon and play with the ribbon cable as reseating it has solved quite a few peoples problems.
Woo! It worked! Very happy chappy.

Screen goes derp
I don't know if I have the same problem or not.
Backstory: I own a Transformer TF101 that I got for my birthday from my girlfriend. It was meant for travel and bs'ing around at home. Took it into work and quickly realized that I could use this for work. That went over so well that the rest of the office became intrigued. Once these came on sale on groupon, the office manager went all in on 10. These are all refurbished transformers with docks.
They have all been handed out and I now have a transformer for home and work. Kind of nice...but I do a lot of site observation so using my personal transformer was a risk that I had to take all on my own (survived a 5' fall off of a parapet wall already).
The problem: From the first 5 minutes that I had the thing, the transformer screen went blank. I opened up google play to download a few apps that I could use for work. Scrolling down I saw some choppyness which I considered the processor/memory having issues loading everything on the screen. Before I knew it - boom blank screen. Rebooted and the loading screen stays on for 2 seconds before the screen goes blank. I can tell it's working because it plays a sound at start up. I can also tell the screen is lit up (it's like it's showing a grey screen because it can't show true black colors). If I hit the power button again it goes completely black. I hit the power button again and the screen flashes to the lock screen and immediately goes blank again. I could do this over and over and over again.
Anybody having the same problem? It's refurbished....I'm guessing apparently I got the dud.
I ran into pretty much the same problem. One morning, the tablet screen would just not turn on. Sometimes, it came on and immediately shutdown, but it is still on the "On" mode. Hit the power button again will bring it to the off mode. Toggle it one more time, sometimes, will turn on the screen a off again. I was able to get it back to work with a factory restore. However, it has the following problems.
1) As soon as I adjust the brightness, the screen will go off again. And there is nothing I can do to bring it back except another factory restore.
2) The screen will flicker (and sometimes produces some clicking sound) when charging with the screen on.
Looks like my TF101 is having same issue, screen gone off suddenly (hdmi shows up in TV fine)...I am going give a try on reseating the cable hoping it resolves the issue.
leonpr, is there some tips/things I have to make sure before attempting this. I found a guide here and another youtube video on this issue as a reference...
Thanks..
Screen won't turn on unless factory reset "fix"
My girlfriend has an ASUS TF101. If the brightness goes up to 60%, the screen is blanked (no backlight either) and the only way to get it to turn back on again is to hard reset. This coincidentally happened at the same time as an update from ASUS. After lots of Googling it does not appear to be related. I was hoping it was and installed several custom ROMS which all experienced the same issue.
As a temporary work around, until I get the guts & the money to be able to replace her tablet if I break it, I found and installed AutomateIt. I set a trigger so that when the screen is turned off, the brightness is set to 50%.
Why trigger when the screen is off instead of when the screen hits above 59%? If you have this same problem, hold the brightness and go all the way until the screen blanks and then still holding your finger on the screen, move it all the way to the left and you will notice that the screen did not come back on. Press the power button once to turn it off and then again to turn it on and you will see the screen at the lowest brightness setting.
So, with the trigger in place, if you accidentally (or one of your rotten kids intentionally:angel raises the brightness above the threshold, simply press the power once to turn off the screen and then press it again to turn the screen on.
Just a note, I ended up installing AutomateIt Pro, Available for $1.60 from the Play Market. The free version works fine, but my girlfriend has been struggling with this issue for a couple of months and after so many hard resets, the little app is more than worth the money.
Have you tried Power + Volume Down for 15 seconds, and then leaving it alone for one minute? It will cold boot. Try that and it may work. Just saying; Hope it will help

Just fixed my blank display problem on a TF101 which is well out of warranty. Here is the link. I found the connector loose after dropping my TF101.
Thanks!
Fix lasted for a few days, now backlight dead, tried all cables again. No joy . I hate intermittent faults so ordered a Samsung Galaxy TabPRO 10.1.

tf101 shuts down when applying pressure to the lower right

All in the title. Anyone have any idea why this happens? It started doing it fairly recently (I've had this tablet for more than a year now) and its frustrating especially when it happens whenever I pick up the tablet
Would seem like a lose connection or something. I'd suggest you carefully open it, and make sure everything is connected properly. If it is, try re-seating all the connectors, especially the display.
Could be a crack in the board / cable come loose / short or earth
Do you hear a rattle in yours? In that area I hear a rattle and my tablet doesn't rotate so I assume that's the location of the accelerometer.

Mine does something similar... It doesn't turn the system off, it just turns the screen off from what I've noticed. So just two taps on the power button and your are good to go I think.

[Q] Can I Prevent the Screen from Turning On When Starting/Completing Charging?

I hate this. Every time I plug the phone in or place it on the wireless charger, the screen comes on. When it hits 100%, the screen comes on again. This is completely unnecessary.
Does anyone know of a way to disable that?
Exposed could, but we know how that goes...
It's not available for the S6?
Nope
Bummer. It really helped with a lot of things on the S4. Is it in the works?

AFAIK, there's a working version for Lollipop. How compatible it is with the S6, I do not know.
just ignore it? The phone turns itself back off in 5 seconds.
Wow, yeah, you're right. Why would I take some little pet peeve about my phone and expect to find help from a community of people who dedicate their time to such things as removing the name of your carrier from your lock screen? Maybe we'd all be better off if we just sucked it up and lived with everything exactly the way the phone came out of the box.
I've worked around this in the past using Tasker and Screen Filter. Just set tasker to activate a fully black screen filter on top of your screen for a few seconds whenever the phones is sat on a wireless charger. Same thing when it's fully charged. Works great.
Not for everyone

I like to have the phone set to "screen always on when charging" so when i have it plugged in and am sort of using it, the screen won't time out on me. However, I don't need the screen on when it's not in "use". So with the phone set to screen always on when charging, it suchs that it awakes once 100% charged or when notifications come across and then stays on. This is exactly why all the customization mods are so beneficial. I don't wan't the screen to ever turn on, unless I initiate. Where can I choose that without a custom rom or mod of some sort, I don't think its possible. Anyone got a good option for me?
