I have done the usual search and nothing hits the nail right on the head for this question. I want to usb tether my transformer to my nexus one phone so that the phone can charge off the awesome power supply that the Transformer has while the Trans utilizes my 3g. I know I can plug the phone in to the transformer whilst the transformer is using the WiFi tether but this is hardly efficient and the battery in the phone doesn't really gain charge. My searches seem to find somebody did this on the A500 and it requires maybe a module in the transformer kernel to get it done. Can somebody please clarify and if this is the case maybe suggest a kernel that might work. I am currently using a Krakd ROM(pre ics) on my transformer. Please no suggestions on extra batteries plugging in my phone to charge it etc, thanks.
Bump anybody got any idea

I found the browser work much more smooth when its connected to the dock
(I have this annoying bug since the last update)
There is a way to make the tablet think its connect to the dock?
Thank you
Try hard restarting your tablet, hold the power for 20 seconds and let go.

I need some help here.
I gave my son the keydock for his tf300. The dock is working like a charm, but once the tablet has been undocked, he is not able to redock until he connects the power cord to the dock. As soon as the power has been connected, the dock is working, and he can then remove the power cord again.
I don't know, if this is a common problem or a faulty keydock. Could someone please give me a hint.

This seams like a faulty dock mine doesn't do that. I can redock whenever i wan't no issues and no need for the power cord.
I would contact Asus see what they say.

Do anybody know how to keep energized the USB ports of the dock while is closed???
I want to charge my phone via USB with my transformer stored in a schoolbag.
At fist time I thougth it was by hardware I mean a swich that turn off the USB ports when you close the tablet and dont care to much about this, but when I update my Transformer to ICS and put the option to keep active while is charging in developer options I note that even when my Transformer is closed with the dock it is still charging my phone via USB but only when Transformer is charging or conected to a PC.
So, anybody know how to keep active the tablet when its closed and no USB conected??????
An app???? A script that can run in terminal???? because I try with keep the screen on setting but didnt work.
Hope somebody can help me. Thanks in advance.
Try enabling the option to keep the wired network active when sleeping. I found that this seems to keep the USB ports active (although it also completely disables deep-sleep on the tablet, so there are battery trade-offs)....
Only problem is that I think that you need to connect a USB->Ethernet adapter in order for the option I'm talking about to appear (actually so that the entire "Ethernet" menu appears)...

Just got this tablet and dock, which as a combo is incredibly sexy... I have many thoughts about this device which I would love to share later, but for now I have to know if your dock behaves like mine:
When I insert the tablet into the dock, i initially get no recognition. If i plug it in to the charger while docked, it instantly recognizes it. I can then unplug it from the charger and it is connected and the keys/mouse pad work. However if I close the screen, I must repeat this process. I have not found another way to make the tablet see the dock.
The latch is secured, the charger charges the tablet and dock through the dock connector.
Is this normal? If so, its retarded. If not, have I missed a dock power button or something?
Do I need to ship this POS back to amazon or what?
Otherwise I love this thing as a package. Devs need to crank out more Teg3 games though. #gameloftchokes

Well...my wife's transformer is incredibly slow and she is giving me permission finally to root it. However I have had difficulty doing so because the charging/interface port on the tablet has issues. A while ago the port stopped charging the tablet. We have multiple chargers for that tablet and nothing will charge it via that port. The only way she can charge it is by plugging it into the keyboard dock and charging the dock. Therefore when I try to plug the tablet into the computer so that I can forego the root process the computer will not recognize it.
So my question is.....can this tablet be rooted by downloading files to it and not need a tablet to PC interface? Or, can the tablet be plugged into the dock and interface with the PC somehow? I looked through all the rooting methods I could find and all of them required a tablet to PC interface.
Unfortunately you need a computer USB connection to root it. There was only 1 firmware (8.6.5.19) that could be rooted without a PC. In order to downgrade, you need a computer as well.
I have been able to root mine using the dock charging port. I just booted to APX mode (VOL UP and POWER).
I wrote a guide on how to root here: http://www.transformerforums.com/fo...t/31927-frederuco-s-guide-root-rom-tf101.html
If the dock is charging the tablet surely the issue must be with charger/cable ive had issues with tf101 cable before, mine would slow charge at rate that was bearly noticable, and the tablet didn't show a charging icon, but the cable did allow a data connection still. If infact it is your tf101 thats the issue root will be out of the question but i belive the stock kernel can be overclocked with an overclocking app which might help a bit.

One would think cause that is the most logical explanation. However, I have tried 3 cables (one the original and other 2 brand new ones) and 2 different OEM power supplies and one that I made which has the proper output ratings and none will charge the tablet. However, all of them will charge the dock. The only way to get the tablet to charge is by plugging into the dock. I know it uses the same port and I am clueless as to why one charges and the other doesn't on the same port. All I know is that is what is going on.
The only problem I ever had with flashing while docked was flashing Ubuntu. But I always flash while docked, so that shouldn't be an issue.
I just flashed back to stock, then re-rooted (wanted a TWRP backup of rooted stock) using the OEM cable via the dock charging port.
No issues here.
