[Q] Dose it vibrate? - Asus Transformer TF700

I just got my tf700 & all was good until I noticed that there was no feedback on keyboard presses. I've tried everything & I don't think the tf700 has a vibrating motor.
Is that true? or I just got a defective unit AS ALWAYS!

I've been using the dock a lot lately, but if I recall correctly I'm pretty sure on-screen keyboard presses make noise from the speaker but do not vibrate. However, I know my tf700 vibrates every time I shut down the device or boot it up.

I've just tried setting it on in SwiftKey and I've found out that it was on all the time, so it definitely does not respond with vibrations, lol.
Mine vibrates on bootup too.
Might be a software thing, as the battery is certainly capable of vibrating, as the booting vibrations prove.

Well... Turns out that my unit is defective. I have no vibrations whatsoever on boots of shutdowns too.

Cool, it's working! Can be felt at about 30ms and higher.
Unfortunately this is for the Android keyboard only - and using it for a minute made me realise how much I love SwiftKey right now

Seems like, too bad looks like you will have to replace it.

Take mine, take mine! I hate vibrations.

I'm using Thumb Keyboard and it vibrates when pressing keys. Check your settings, and do remember that Asus installed their own keyboard as the default. The stock Android one is there, and you can always install another

Keyboard questions!

Just a couple of questions about the keyboard, is the auto correction for it not that sensitive? I mean I can use lowercase i and slam the keyboard like so asidhai and nothing happens? I have had a look in settings and it is has auto correction on, so a bit weird why it doesn't seem to be doing much.
Also, it sometimes doesn't work when connected, and I have to push it in a bit more or disconnect and connect again. Assuming this is normal, but just a quick note!

I don't believe there is any kind of auto-correct for typing on the physical keyboard, that comes in to play when you're using the on-screen keyboard. As for the disconnect and connect again issue, I sometimes get that problem, but rarely. My only guess is it has something to do with the TF going into deep sleep, as that is the only time I seem to run into that little bug.
It can be quite annoying, but I guess it is easier to spot them. There are options for auto correct if I beleive correctly, but they don't do anything.

you might want to look into Swift Key X, it has a pretty good auto correct. and if it works like it does on the G2 then it will also work with the dock keyboard.
I've got the phone version, just trying out the tablet version now, thanks for the advice!

Haptic Feedback

I had a Samsung Tab 8.9 and sold it to buy this TF300T. I really liked the haptic feedback on the Samsung. Does the TF300T not have haptic feedback?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda premium
No haptic feedback.
:-( That's what I thought. Need to decide if that's a deal breaker. I still have 3 weeks to return it.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda premium
Any way to mod it in? I remember managing to get Haptic on my original jailbroken iPhone way back in the day.
That being said, I haven't missed it at all on this tablet, hadn't even noticed its absence

I think you could mod the iphone because it had a vibrate function for phone calls. No such thing exists on the TF300 (as far as I know, would be weird to hide that). No hardware to mod then.
this really is a great tablet, i don't see a reason where haptic feedback would be usefull other than a handfull of games.

Biggest reason is to enable it on the keyboard. Typing with an onscreen keyboard is much nicer when you get physical feedback. Sure, you can enable clicking noises to be made on key press but it really isnt the same. Definitely going to miss it once I sell my Touchpad.

Alarm Issue on JB

Does anybody else that is running the official JB have this issue? Set an alarm. Choose any ringtone. Wait for it to go off.
For me, when it does, it plays the first note or two of the alarm, then stops. That's it.
Rather annoying and utterly useless as an alarm.

Yes I have the same issue. EDIT: works correct if tablet not locked. But otherwise does not work right. Checked it on Nexus 7 and it works correctly.

got it here too. first day of my new job too...
Just to follow this up.
The alarm works fine if the screen is on. However it doesn't work if the screen is off, which unfortunately is pretty much the only time I'd need it.
Reboots don't change this behavior. Adjusting various display and power settings don't change this behavior. Using the exact same settings on my Galaxy Nexus running JB works fine.
So it appears to be a legitimate bug.
What I haven't tried is a full wipe and reinstall using the JB image from the ASUS website.
A workaround that seems to work perfectly is using Alarm Clock Xtreme downloaded from Google Play.

I tried it, and turned the screen off, no issue. Doesn't mean there's no bug. Too many others are having the problem.

Contrast degradation

I noticed my TF700 is suffering from contrast degradation after prolonged use. I could be using the browser and then the screen seems to kinda whiten up a bit more then usual. It's still readable but noticeable. Wondering if anyone else is noticing this and if it has been noticed does it get worst because mine is happening more often now.

Turned off Auto Brightness?
Turned off Battery Saving? Not the speed toggle, the one in settings that turns on when battery gets low. This has an auto-contrast.
So that settings / power savings / first selection battery saver. Thanks I will post results.

I'm still getting the weird contrast.

It sounds like the effects of the Asus "Smart Backlight Adjuster". Go to "Settings->Asus Customized Settings->Enable Smart Backlight Adjuster" and uncheck that option - I think that will solve your issue... This is completely different (and separate from) the auto-brightness setting.

Thanks I will try it when I get home. Kinda driving me nuts. Instead of the solid black letters I get light grey letters. Harder to read. Just started happening maybe 2 weeks ago.

Are you talking about xda? If so change your theme to xda 2010 at the bottom
It starts up fine then after a while when it gets warm everything gets lighter. More noticeable when browsing the web.

Hmm, that actually sounds a little more serious that just the setting that I talked about a few posts back... Almost sounds like a hardware issue.
Let us know what you find out - a picture would also help. In fact, if you take a screenshot with the TF700 and post the picture and the picture looks fine, then it would definitely be a hardware problem (the screenshot would capture what is supposed to be displayed - if it's a hardware problem, the screenshot would look normal to everyone else, but would still look bad to you, if that makes any sense)...

I have the same problem, noticed yesterday for the first time. It looks as if contrast is lower and brightness higher than normal.
I am still within my 30 day best buy return period, should I consider returning it? I have unlocked it, would best buy care?

Yeah that's what Im experiencing. I have a square trade warranty but I'm curious to see how they will remedy this. They would have to use it for a bit till it warms up.

This is smart dimmer activating..
Two days later and haven't noticed the issue reappearing. Deactivating that setting fixed it for me.

Cool - glad that if fixed it for you guys. Personally, I don't know what Asus was thinking with that one! It's utterly horrible! At least they finally provided a setting for it (previously, you had to be rooted and type some commands @ the Android command-prompt to disable it)!

.[Q] Keyboard with no battery

Hi there,
It's about time I root my infinity but before I do I just want to check up on some issues to see if it's warranty or just an annoyance I'll have to live with...
Whenever my keyboard is out of battery while the tablet is not, my tablet seems to turn off while not being actively used. Is the the way it's supposed to work, or at least the way it works for everyone?
Thank you for reading!

Yep, if you mean turns the screen off. You can set the time out under display settings. No, if you mean completely shuts the tab down.
