[Q] Black Box says English on boot up - Asus Transformer TF700

Is this normal? I get a small black box after I unlock after bootup, that says English.
Can I turn this off?

I got that too right after I updated to. 26 . I changed a root setting, got that, then had a bootloop. At first it restarted 30s after boot then just bootlooped as soon as it started up.
I hope you don't get that but if you go just do a factory reset and you should be fine.

No root yet, just installed .26 and am seeing that thing.
Anyone else?

Hey lardo. Mine does this as well, but so did my TF300. And a friend of mines TF300 does as well. Seems to be normal. But also a little annoying

Ok cool, I just wanted to make sure.
Thanks for letting me know.

I think this black box is from the keyboard layout being initialized. It doesn't happen every time but I've seen it quite a few times on mine.

Hey no problem

Happens on my prime with the stock keyboard being the default one set when it turns. I use SwiftKey x tablet and the box doesn't come up anymore.

pick it up in amazon appstore, they updated it for tablets.
I uninstalled it this morning after downloading it from Amazon, and downloaded it again just now to see if they updated it for tablets in the interim, and nope, still stuck at the logo screen.
Have you actually played it on your tablet? The reviews seem to indicate that Xoom owners are having the same luck as us.

Looks amazing and plays really well on the transformer. Grab it free on amazon for today
I tried it and it worked fine until the battle actually started and it was just a black screen with the HUD.
On the android market it says its not compatible with the transformer, I'm also getting crashes
To fix the black screen issue, just pinch to zoom in then out. I had the same problem initially. After that, the game works fine (and is crazy addictive).

[Q] XDA Premium HD expired

I've purchased the app on February 24.
It's been working just fine until today. Now, every time I try to open the app I get this message (see attached picture) on my ASUS Transformer TF101.
I have proof of purchase in my Google account transactions!!
I've already tried clearing cache and data from the app, but I still get the same message...
Has anyone had the same problem?
Same thing is happening with the Tapatalk app. People think it is just the leap day that is throwing the apps off. Tapping anywhere but the okay button let me navigate in Tapatalk. You might try that.

Nice! Updated and now I don't get that annoying message anymore!
silentheero was right though, it was the leap day causing the message to appear. I changed the date to february 28 and the message didn't appear anymore, changed it back, and there it was again. Either way, the new version fixed it

Anyone had a random reboot on the latest 4.2.1 update?

Hello everyone, I have tf300 with 4.2.1 rooted and busybox installed
It had been amazing but just today, I got a random reboot when I was watching videos with YouTube app.
This isn't a thread where someone goes "baaaaaaaaaaaa somethings wrong!!! Someone help" but I just want to know whether or not it's a problem with my tablet (maybe a bad flash or something) or it is an actual firmware problem.
Thanks!

Yours seems to be worse than mine. I've been running my tablet on 4.2.1 for quite a time now but this is the first time... Maybe it is the bad flash. Used to happen on ICS on my first TF300 (Exchanged it). I guess I'll wait another day or so and see if the problem persists or it's one time thing.

Yea seems to be get it quite often not sure why. Was on all stock when updated got it ota then unlocked the bootloader so not sure why was thinking of sending it back to newegg for and exchange but they're slow as all hell put in for an rma earlier this week like monday they're supposed to send me the shipping label haven't gotten it yet. Was printed already its only good for 7 days by the time it gets here will be no good. Figures. Would rather find a way to fix it maybe ill try a reflash like you mentioned.
Also didn't mention bought it as refurb which may have been the original issue prior to them reselling it. Who knows.

Your not the only one gonna try to reinstall the update when its a good time to go through the whole process of setting it back up. Was gonna root it any way so no point to get an exchange if can be fixed. If send it to asus theres a chance they can repair it and lose unlock bootloader and not be able to regain it happened to a couple people on here. When i try it will repost if anything changes.

You to thanks wouldn't have thought of trying until talked to you. Pretty sure fixed it usually rebooted at least once if not twice a day. None yet today. Can actually enjoy using it now. Ota really screwed it up glad don't have to send it back to newegg. Although didn't sound like yours had as bad of issue should probably fix it. Good luck.
Trust me I've been testing it now that i got the shipping label need to know by monday if really need to send it back which would suck it's my only pc right now.

I got a random reboot today whilst going through the painful experience of browsing with this tablet. It took about 5 minutes or more to start up again and when it did, the system UI kept crashing which made the tablet hard to use as the message kept popping up. Thereafter, when i tried to reboot using the power settings, it froze. Very frustrating. I was able to sort it by holding the power button to turn it off and then turning it back on. It seems to work fine for now but it's something that shouldn't be happening. I'm stock and unrooted

This was driving me crazy until i realized that every time it rebooted automatic updates were running. Not sure how this happened, maybe corruption caused by play updates running when android updated. Uninstalling the 4 perpetually updating apps and reinstalling seems to have corrected the problem (or it's a lucky coincidence).
I was also having wireless dropouts, not sure how that would be related to updates but seems to have stopped now, possibly the updating process was spinning or using some other resource. I definitely recommend disabling auto updates and seeing if that helps.

I don't think that's causing problems for me as I already disabled it. But for few days, I have not been experiencing random reboot which is good but I don't know why.

Droid Ultra Shuts Down

My wife's Ultra has developed an issue where the phone powers down whenever the screen is turned off. This happens whether the screen is put into standby with the power button or is allowed to turn off automatically.
Just tried a factory reset today with no joy.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Today, i had the same issue on Droid Ultra, running KitKat. I think it's because battery state issue - before i rebooted, battery showed 19%, but after power on issue, i go into bootloader and power off the device and plugged in charger. Charging battery on screen showed me 0%.
PS: i used exposed feature for better battery stat. Maybe issue was because of it.
PPS: did you root her phone and clean from bloatware? Add some tweaks? My Droid currently charging, and i'd like to hcarge it up to 100% then try to power it on.
Her phone is unrooted and stock kit kat. We've eliminated the battery and any third party apps as the cause. It seems like a hardware issue but the power button works fine for all other functions.
Also figured out that the phone doesn't power off immediately after the screen goes off. Still baffled.
