Recently, I have noticed that my dock lights up, the light it has turns on and flashes orange once, and at first i thought it was whenever i had an email or notification since it seemed to happen at that time, but now i'm not so sure,
but just to clarify, this doesn't seem to have an affect on the docks battery life.
Help is appreciated in understanding this
Mine seemes to flash when the dock is out of juice but connected to the tablet. I've not managed to work out the pattern as to what causes it to flash at other times though

Hello Everybody,
I bought My Transformer 16Go + Dock yesterday, and I must say I am completely satisfied.
But there's one thing annoying me. When I plug the charger in the tablet, this one starts automaticaly.
Is there an option to disable this functionnality ?
I'm on an european version, maybe US version has this feature in the latest firmware ?
Another question, is there a way to have the charge indicator for both the tablet and the dock on the status bar ?
Thanks
Mx

Plug it in
Hi
Mine does the same - it is a bit annoying. I have posed on the ASUS UK page asking about it. Will post here if they reply.
I think this is pretty typical behavior. My phones all turn on when I plug them in, and my Xoom also turned on when plugged in. I just hit the power button to put it back to sleep...
A battery charge indicator for the dock was in a beta firmware release but got cut from the latest shipping release. Hopefully we'll see it come back, perhaps in the 3.1 release "coming soon."
As Wynand said, this is pretty standard behavior. Droid, DroidX, Archos 101, Nook Color and TF all did it.
I would like it if they didn't, but if you want to charge when OFF, you need to plug it in, then turn it off.
Ok, thanks for your answers !

I have this odd issue with my keyboard unless im just mistaken. the flashing red light on the left side means low battery correct? Well unless I'm wrong, either my keyboard is just confused or the battery life is horrible. for example, just about 45 minutes ago I took my keyboard off of the charger, fully charged and green light, and now the light is flashing. My onscreen battery status says my battery is completely full. I have only let my keyboard fully die a couple times when I first got it, but I mean now I will use it for probably an hour after it starts flashing before I plug it up and its still not dead. I usually fully charge my tablet and keyboard dock separtely. Does anyone have this problem or know what's going on?

I have no specific answer but let us know if you are stock all the way, rooted stock, or custom rom. Also check out your dock firmware version when connected. It will be in settings. Check that version with what Asus says is current. Try upgrading/downgrading etc. to see if it resolves it.

With my TF101, the tablet would never go into deep sleep if AC power was connected (which kinda makes sense). However, the TF700 seems to deep sleep even when connected to AC power.
Really, the only reason I noticed is because it takes a few seconds before I can enter my PIN after "opening" my docked Transformer, even while connected to AC power. Just a little annoyance - just wondering if anyone knows how to stop deep sleep when connected to AC power...
Thanks!

Settings => Developer Options => Stay Awake
That prevents the screen from sleeping while charging. I'm using this setting, and it still puts the screen to sleep when it is docked and closed while charging, just not deep sleep.
Hope that does what you're looking for.

I was wondering how to change this...
Thanx
Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, that option causes the screen to never "time out" if I leave it on by accident (or for whatever reason) while connected to AC power.
I was just trying to avoid deep-sleep (which it does), while still allowing the screen to turn off automatically after so long. Like I said, that's how the TF101 works - if you are connected to AC power, the screen will still time-out, but the unit doesn't actually enter the deep sleep mode.
No big deal though, just wondering if anyone knew of a way to make it behave like the TF101 (for which I've never enabled that option).
Thank again.

Ah, okay. Well, unless you added the 'deep sleep' options to your build.prop file, the only other setting I could think of is: Settings => ASUS Customized Setting => MobileDock Battery Saving Mode
I don't think that should affect what you're referring to, but I suppose it's worth a shot.

That's the toggle to disable the 'listen' to the keyboard dock in order to let presses on the keyboard wake up the device. This drains battery, and I'm not sure if it prevents deep sleep. (It doesn't hurt to try, of course.)

Yeah, the only think I can think of is that if he has this enabled, and is trying to enter his pin with the dock -immediately- after awaking from sleep, could it maybe take the dock a moment to "awaken" as well?
EDIT: I think this is it. I have this setting enabled, and I just set a pin on my tablet to test this. If I open the tablet and immediately try to enter the pin with the keyboard dock, it takes a moment before it starts to register key-presses when this setting is enabled.

Yep - that's the exact "issue" that I speak of.... I don't want to disable the mobile dock battery saver option though (because then it would *never* deep sleep, even on battery power)...
Oh well, sounds like the TF700 just acts differently than the TF101 in this situation (like I said, the TF101 doesn't deep sleep when connected to AC power, even with the same settings).
No big deal though - thanks for all of the replies!

Is anyone having issues with the keyboard causing the tablet to turn off? It's not doing it while I'm using it just when I close it the tablet turns completely off sometimes. I've had the tablet for several weeks and had no issues but just got the keyboard a few days ago and now it has random shutdowns. Example: On break at work I closed my tablet and walked approximately 50ft to my workstation opened it back up to plug in the speakers to listen to Pandora and the tablet was off, not like stuck in sleep mode but completely off had to hold power for 1-2 secs it vibrated and thee boot logo came up. Would like to know if I should contact Asus or if it might just be a bug in the ROM.

Happens to me sometimes, too.
Happens all the time here.
There is a thread about it.
No solution so far.
I have returned my tablet 3 times to my reseller (it's currently in their hands), who RMAed it to Asus once. I have no info about what they've done.
After the last RMA, it took 2 days before the trouble occurred again and it usually occurred after a 10-15mn sleep. After a few days it occurred instantly.
Tablet is full stock, wiped again and again, reflashed, whatever. Full charge, middle charge is the same.
I do hope for a replacement this time.

That's a different problem, I was having having that issue when i was running earlier versions of CleanROM but since the 3.1 update I haven't had that issue. That issue the tablet is frozen or stuck in sleep my issue is the tablet is off completely. But there are are others in that thread posting about having issues similar to mine.

I think the shutdown may caused by a few issues, no don't considered every shutdown is the same. One maybe hardware, one maybe hardware. I suggest to try everything before you ship it back. In my case, I removed my keyboard dock and charge it over night BY ITSELF, then charge your tablet also by itself, put them together then I do a factory reset, then re flash a full Asus firmware. After that I never seen this issue again.
I'll try that when I get the chance but I turned the power save setting for the keyboard on and it stopped shutting down.
Asus Transformer Infinity (CleanROM 3.1 ODEX)
I've had my keyboard for a few weeks now. I shut the keyboard and open all the time. I have it so I can wake the tablet with the keyboard. Never had the tablet shutdown by itself. I'm stock, rooted and locked.
This question goes to all owners of the keyboard-dock for the TF300T.
After docking the pad into the keyboard, it takes almost a minute until the connection is displayed in the status bar. But at this moment i am still not able to use the keyboard. Using the ASUS Battery widget, one can see that the pad assumes the dock's battery having 0%, although it is completely loaded. A minute later the widget shows 100% - but only for a second before it displays 0% again and I STILL CAN NOT USE THE KEYBOARD. That gets on my nervs.
Is that problem known by anyone else? Or should i send the dock to repair (Another problem is that i have no warrenty)..
Thank you for answers!

Both on stock 4.2 before root and after root on Cromi I have no issues with the dock connecting. I am also not aware of this being an issue.
