Settings can not be saved? - Asus Transformer TF700

Hello all,
My problem is, the option "Background Process Limit" in Developer Options, seem to be set to Default again everytime i reboot or restart. I use Apex Launcher but it was same with the Stock launcher too. How can i solve this?

Just curious - why are you even setting that option? My understanding is that it will just limits how many apps you can multitask with (could be wrong though).

I would also like to know why this option keeps getting reset on power down/up.
My reason, if you require a reason, which you shuoldn't really, is wanting to control the amount of tasks on the machine. If they have the option available, it shouldn't have to be re-enabled each boot.

Could be wrong here.
Aren't certain developer settings only available for rooted devices?

From just messing around with it, it seems that if enabled, the setting does restrict the amount of processes.. it just doesn't carry over on reboot.
Which would be a very cool built in auto task killer, in my opinion.
Its a bit frustrating to have to continually re-check the option.
I just installed the most recent firmaware update though so I'll see if it sticks now.

This option doesn't stick on any android device I've used. Didn't stick on the original Samsung Galaxy, Nexus S, Asus TF101 or Galaxy S3.
Just assumed this is by design.

I did a cold reboot yesterday, the 4 processes maximum setting remained enabled...

Because for many, it prevents random reboots. It also means you don't have to constantly clean out the background processes when launching something heavy. Let's face it, you're not going to multitask whilst playing a bluray or heavy game.

YouTube app totally borked on Transformer

Anyone else seeing a problem where the YouTube app is totally borked on the Asus Transformer when it's docked? Type something into the search and press the spacebar, and it seems to scroll the page rather the type a space...
bizzare...

Im not getting that here, running Prime 1.7.

I have the same problem, and no not touching anything except the space bar.
I have just been pressing the search button on the dock when I'm looking stuff up on youtube. The space bar works fine that way til someone finds a way to fix it.

WORK-AROUND: click the youtube logo at screen top/left and use the search box on the home screen instead, as that one isn't affected by the typing bug.
I have the same problem. Thanks for the tip.

[Q] Clock/time problems

Wondering if anyone else is experiencing clock/time issues?
My infinity taskbar clock will occasionally get stuck at a certain time (i.e. 4:28 is stuck right now) and other times will continue to work but show the wrong time. Other times it shows the correct time. The clock on the asus options panel will show a different time than the taskbar, or show the right time.
Anyway, the time is always correct in the settings > date/time menu. I have tried changing from auto time/no sync, asus panel/normal panel, etc but I still experience problems with the clock.
I doubt it is a hardware problem because in the settings menu (and it apps that grab the time) it is always correct. It just displays incorrectly (or pauses for hours at a time) on the taskbar and the pop-up menu.
Anyone else ever experience anything similar? I am eagerly awaiting the bootloader unlocking tool that will open up all of the awesome custom roms, adding functionality and fixing things ^.^
No clock problems here -- have you tried clearing cache/data on the asus clock app? What about a factory reset (I know, I hate them too)?
Yes, I have the same bug and it's very frequent... I'm not sure but I think it occurs when I use the "One-Click clean" button of the task manager widget.
Do you use this button?

Solved: How to disable notification about docking and sd card

Just got my docking, but I se now that everytime I use the docking I get a notification that stays in the tray informing me that I'm using the docking. Also I get the notification that a sd card is present and when I turn the device on from sleeping I get the notification that it is preparing the sd card for use.
Is this normal and is there any way to turn them of?
Solution:
princeplanet said:
Try this, and see if it works.
1. go to Settings -> Asus Customized Settings-> uncheck "Use ASUS Quick Setting" -> exit
2. Bring up the notification menu (tap bottom right corner where the time and wifi signal is) -> tap the settings button under the time -> Turn Notification off -> tap settings at the bottom -> go back to Asus Customized Settings and turn on the Quick Settings. -> Exit
I now do not have the docking icon or the external drive icon, only the time, wifi signal and the power icons.

It's there for when you plug in some headphones...ugh I KNOW that I put some headphones in damnit.

Right now it's starting to be a little bit annoying. Now i have 3 notifications. 2 for sd cards, and one informing me that my tablet is connected to my docking..
Hmm.. thank for informing me. I was starting to wonder what i was typing on..
Do a little (re)search on the Prime in such cases, the firmware is very similar to Prime's. Try this:

3rd consecutive Infinity - 3rd time no "haptic" feedback

Subject says it all. "vibrate on touch" not functioning...AGAIN, and I did factory reset, firmware update blah blah blah. This makes 3 in a row for me with this issue. C6, C5, and now C7 s/n.
This time I bought it at Best Buy locally instead of online like the first two, so I can exchange it more easily.
So, what's the over/under on the total # of times I'll be exchanging this thing until I get one that works 100%?
Mechanical construction seems fine w/ minimal light bleed.
One final thing ASUS: W T F ?!
No haptic feedback on what, typing? There are settings to increase the instensity and the stock setting you can't feel it, so you need to go to the keyboard in settings and change the intensity.

No touch feedback on ANYTHING.
The only place I notice the haptic feedback is when I power the device on and off - that's it... I'm wondering if all 3 units were actually fine the whole time??

My first one it worked fine then inexplicably stopped working. Every time I tapped the screen I would get a response. When I would place widgets on the screen I would get a response. I can adjust the settings/volume in advanced keyboard settings, but when I type there is no feedback response. Mine does vibrate on start-up/shut-down, that's it.
I feel a slight vibration when I press any of the three buttons on the lower left of the home screen
Did you go to "Settings - Sound - Vibrate On Touch" and turn it on?

If it works on startup/shutdown then I don't think it's a hardware problem - probably just a combination of settings...

This is nuts...
There is an option that can be toggled on and off in the settings menu. It's called "vibrate on contact". You know what I am referring to, right? Whether or not that box is checked has no effect on the haptic feedback.
I am aware of the 'advanced keyboard settings' where the duration of the feedback can be set. I can slide that around and feel the response. When I use the keyboard: no response. Again, it's not just the keyboard, it's everything.
My very first tablet, when I clicked on menu items, icons, etc, the scren would vibrate..just like my cell phone. Every time I tapped the screen there was a solid response. Then it suddenly stopped working. 2nd tablet, very faint feedback when hitting the 3 icons in the lower right hand side, none anywhere else.
I have a feeling a LOT of people have this issue and don't realize it and/or don't care about it.
Bottom line is, my constant issue has nothing to do 'playing with settings' hard boot, cold boot, boot in the ass, whatever. It has to do with piss poor quality control on the part of the mfg.

When I turn it on... All 3 lower left icons have haptic feedback. When I go into settings and turn off "vibrate on touch" , it doesn't work. I don't see a problem.

Haptic feedback response is supposed to be for more than just clicking on those 3 icons you are referring to. How about when you select various things from the settings menu? When you click on an app? Press and hold an app/widget in the menu to drag to the homescreen? In those cases, and others like typing, there should be vibratory feedback. If you're ok with it then great. I just feel that if I am spending $500+ on something I want ALL the functions to work.

Are you using the stock launcher?
Ya, thats settings for the tablet dude. If you feel the feedback when you turn it on or off then it IS working. Asus has just nerfed the HF when your navigating around android likely to save battery life. Chances are with custom roms and custom kernels when they come you can boost the intensity of the vibration and enable it for everything, not just three or four buttons on the homescreen.
Honestly, in a device like this having HF is sort of silly, one tiny vibrator isnt going to provide that much feedback in such a large device and it just kills battery. The only time i really like having it is when i turn on the device and get that feedback to tell me that yes, the tablet is in fact turning on.
I had the same issue that haptic feedback was only working while powering the device up.
But to my big surprise it started to work on everything without me doing anything about it.

Maybe its a bug that didn't exist in the firmware version on your original unit, but exists in the current firmware...
My point is that its not a *hardware* issue if it vibrates on power up/down...

Maybe, but I always turn off haptic on my phones and tablets.. never did like them
Ok, so I just tested this. The only way to key the soft keyboard keys to vibrate on touch is by going into the "Asus Keyboard" settings and enabling it there. If I enabled it under the "Android keyboard" settings, it doesn't work (since we actually using the Asus soft keyboard). Also, make sure to increase the vibration length as it defaults to 1ms or something like that.
Have you enabled the vibration under *Asus Keyboard* settings?
The back, home and recent apps soft keys did vibrate by selecting Vibrate on touch under Settings->Sound.
So, it seems to work as expected here...

Push notifications - seemingly all apps not working?

Can I get some ideas? It seems all apps I use which have push notifications, like mail droid, friend caster, text plus, are no longer pushing, but opening these apps will update them normally. I've tried clearing all cache from twrp , reinstalling one of the troubled apps, disabling adaway, no help. Its got to be a stupid setting. Anyone got an idea here?
