Screen turns on when netbook closed

This has bugged me forever, and I've never seen anyone else talk about it, and it's a difficult/impossible thing to search for. If you turn your screen off while docked, then close the netbook, does your screen turn on? Mine does. my screen timeout is set to 5 minutes (since I use it like a laptop) so this is annoying as it drains an extra 5 minutes of battery. Anyone figured out a fix for this?

mine was doing that all last week and it was killing my batterylife so that i would have 0 in dock and 60 in tab at the end of the day vs my normal 60in dock 100 in tab. i just reflashed revolver and rebooted a couple times and it seemed to have fixed the problem

It definitely is annoying, I agree. One thing that I've been doing is making sure the screen is on before I close the lid. At this point it has become second nature for me to do that when I stop using my tablet, and as such less annoying.
Still, a permanent fix would be nice.

I've reflashed many times and this issue has existed for as long as I can remember (back when I originally bought the device). No amount of reboots has helped, unfortunately...

Holy ****. This is fixed in CM9. It only took a year and unofficial developers to get it done. Now, to try to untrain my muscle memory from turning the screen on every time I close the device...

Hmmm, I do not have this issue on ICS (revolver). Did you have it in ICS as well?

[Q] My Asus Transformer TF101 keeps rebooting. **solved**

Yesterday I had to go to the browser on my Transformer, but when I wanted to unlock it I forgot what I wanted to do. So I'm thinking and I'm thinking and I see my Transformer rebooting. I thought it was forzen and it needed a reboot. Sinds then it's stuck on the boot logo(with powered by nvidia tegra underneath it). It keeps rebooting and rebooting but it never get's further than that.
I'm running stock ICS with the latest updates.
Sorry for bad english.
Found the problem just keep the power button for 10 seconds.
Turn it on again.

solution?
You found the problem? What was it?
I had the same problem, I had found a solution but now it is restarting over and over again.
Hard power-off seemed to help, but it continues to do this every hour or so since the update (2 days ago?)

solution?
I'm having the same issue.
I would like to know how to fix this issue other then going back to the factory settings.

Indeed, don't think there's an easy way.
Maybe a root will help.

Guys, the OP told you how he fixed it. Read the last sentences! He just long held power button to do cold reboot.

I see, but neither of the other responders have solved it that way, else I wouldn't be here. But thanks for reminding.
The XDA-rules clearly indicate that we should look for a topic that is related.

I had the reboots also. I did a factory reset that stopped them for a few days then they started again. I disabled the Asus settings in the menu and have gone four days with no reset. Then I reset the screenshot check and forgot to uncheck it after the shot. The first time it slept it rebooted. I think the problem is in the Asus settings.

I had also reboots when the tablet goes into deep sleep / standby. I wipe all datas and switch to various roms. Then i found the app "wake lock" thats prevents that cpu goes into idle mode. The reboots disappear After activeating this app in mode PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK .

The clock doesnt update correctly

the clock on my infinity doesnt update at all. i noticed it in class today that when i turn it on itll update in the menu but when im looking at the home screen the clock wont update in the corner... ive debloated this thing from what i know i dont need but for some reason would there be something i deleted that caused the clock to stop working properly? anyone have any ideas about this?
thanks

This was happening with me only way to fix it was restarting the tablet. I haven't had this issue for a long time now so I can't help you much more

Rotating the tablet seems to work for me!

I have the same issue sometimes when I connect my keyboard dock. A reboot fixes this problem indeed. Still a weird bug, but nothing too major I guess.

thanks for the help. ive reset and it seems to fix it, but if i have it happen again, ill try to rotate it next time to see if thats a short cut and not have to reboot.

Try clocksync from the Play Store.

Why is wifi killing my battery

I'm on stock jelly bean and only getting just under 3 hours of screen on time. This is horrible and besides screen drain I'm getting most of the other drain from wifi. Anyone know whats going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Edit. After Google I see it's a known issue

Try killing off Google maps if it's running.
Shut blue tooth and GPS off if not using them.
These couple of things might help.

One thing to know and remember: The percentage mentioned is not how much of your battery it uses, it's how much of the current battery usage belongs to the app/component.
Running any live wallpapers? Auto brightness? Which power-setting mode? Location services?

i am having the exact same issue, balanced mode, 35% brightness, no gps, bluetooth on etc and having only 3 hours on screen? Unfair because this tablet is perfect other then that

I would assume it's normal, it might use more than it's supposed to but wifi and screen will usually be the worst sinners, depending on what use of course.

Thanks bud. It's definitely not normal. After doing research I come to find out its a problem with Asus code. Wifi should never be anywhere close to being reported by the battery use stats. Hopefully we will see a fix sooner or later

If I am not mistaken an update came out either yesterday or today that had the WiFi issues noted in the changelog. Check the ASUS website.

Random restarts

I don't know why but since the new update my tablet keep restarting, won't make up and go into a deep sleep at times, and finally at around 20% my tablet will shut down and not turn back until its is charged again, anyone else having this problem?
