When I have my pad docked in my keyboard, can I then charge both the pad and the keyboard at the same time by connecting the charger to either the pad or the keyboard... Or do I still need to charge them separately?
Regards,

You can plug in the cable into the dock while the pad is connected to it and they'll both get charged.
When docked both the tab and keyboard will charge.

Hi all, this morning I had a strange issue with my TF101g (standard HC 3.2 8.6.6.23 rooted): the wall charger simply does not charge my pad anymore!
BUT the pad charges if I use the Asus dock...
AND I don't have any problems if I try to charge the dock with the wall charger (with and without the pad docked)
What can I do !!?

When my infinity is docked and sleep for a long period of time (hours) I'll sometimes find the tablet had turned off, and needs to be powered back on.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I know it's not running out of battery.

i think i found the culprit. while the pad is docked in my laptop bag, the power button is being pressed as it weighs down onto the bottom of the bag.

Hello ,
I just bought a tf700t with keyboard dock.
i have a question for the first time charge....
Do i have to connect the tablet to its keyboard docking and plug in the charger into the dock for eight hours or
just charge the tablet itself for eight hours ?
Does the docking need first time charge btw ?
If you have both the tablet and the dock, most likely you will need to charge both the first time. To save time connect the two and charge away.

Thanks very much. However I am now charging tablet only and will charge the dock tonight!
Hi,
not sure if this is he correct forum to ask and i am sorry if this was asked before.
I have just got my TF300 a few days and i got an update just after i turn it on and tot i was JB but it was just some firmware update. So i am still on ICS, i have notice that my dock wont charge the pad when i dock it in. It is only when i reboot my pad then i am able to charge it but after a while, it stopped again. I bought my pad together with the dock so i dont think its the wrong dock for my pad (i assume....)

i thought the same thing as you when i first got mine. it uses some pretty clever logic to charge the battery. its hard to explain but it does use the keyboard battery first to keep the tablet part topped up. it isn't always charging it though. not until the tablet has used some of its own battery first, then the dock kicks in.
give it a little while and you'll probably realise that it is doing it the way it's supposed to :fingers-crossed:
not saying it isn't faulty, but i think its unlikely, based on the fact that it does sometimes charge. (which is normal )
I believe the Pad has to drop below 90% before the dock starts charging the pad, otherwise the charge will go to the dock.
There have been more posts here about this behaviour.

Thx guys, I will give it a try 1st.

My keyboard dock only starts charging the battery when it's under 70%, actually.
I think it all depends on how quickly the battery drains (depending on what you're doing on the tablet), what mode you're on etc.
Ya, mine start charging at 68% guess it's just my wrong concept of the dock, thx again

Just want to summarise, for my case, the keypad will only start charging the pad when it batt is less than 70% and will stop charging when the pad reaches 90%.

Even < 30% the dock doesn't charge the tablet. Hardware failure?
No it's different: the pad is charging (also though the dock) but the battery in the dock not anymore
Hello, all. I just picked up a dock from Best Buy last night and am having some interesting problems with it. When I first connect it to the Infinity, it always shows that it has 56% battery life. Then, after a few minutes, it shows 0% battery life, but still works fine (I'm typing this on it right now, as it says 0% battery life). I charged it over night (with the tablet docked), so I figured it would've charged completely (tablet was fully charged, as expected). I am on CleanROM 2.7.2, so part of me wonders if it's a ROM (or kernel) thing. Has anybody heard of this or had experience with it? What should I do to try to remedy the problem?
Thanks in advance for any insight!

Been charging all day... after searching, I decided to try a cold boot with the Infinity docked, which didn't work. I charged the dock and tablet together afterward, with the tablet powered off... tablet is showing 100%, dock still says 56%. Installed "dual battery meter" to see if it was an ASUS widget issue, but the aftermarket widget shows 56%, too.
Should I just suspect my dock is defective?

I think you got a bad dock and would take it back for exchange. I have had zero problems with my dock/keyboard. I unpackaged it, connected it to the tablet, plugged it in, both dock and tablet fully charged without issue.

Exchanged. New one is charging. I'll post back with results. Thanks for your insight!
Update: Charging light went green and the widget is showing the dock has a full charge. I guess I simply got a defective unit. Thanks again!

How much is it from Best buy? 149 $. Does it real t700 dock ?
I want dock too, but look ebay over 149
It is $149.99 at Best Buy. It is the TF700/TF201 dock (as opposed to the TF500/TF700 dock, which I believe is supposed to be forward compatible, but with no other differences in functionality).

one thing to note, although the battery in the dock can go completely dead, you will still be able to use the keyboard to type. It just wont charge your Infinity.

Will the dock cause increased battery drain on the Infinity if you use it when it's dead? (By the way, thanks for responding. I suspected that a dead dock was still usable, but had I known that, I'd have been more confident that my dock was defective from the start).
