When I go to check battery status in the settings menu, it says that battery usage not available. Anyone else getting this or know why I am?

Update your firmware to. 29... It is fixed in the update

Partially fixed in .29, but still limited battery stats that only show display, wifi but not app use.
Thanks for the replies!
Same here after update to .29 no problems. However no detailed information about apps usage. Only maps, screen and inactive are displayed.

Note! If you go to .29 and you have a rooted .17 your root is gone and you need to redo it.
Maybe just new to the tablet but.. Wi-Fi sucks battery like no tomorrow. Maybe it's the battery monitor built in that doesn't read it right but when Wi-Fi is using 70-80% of the battery (by far bearing screen). Just curious if anyone else has the same thing. Get great battery time with it as long as I'm not paying with it, and in standby it uses next to nothing. Just when on the Wi-Fi goes into overdrive.

My understanding is that the built-in battery monitor just isn't accurate....

Ok cool. I figured that was the case just as it is with my phone. Just had an older phone that was really accurate so just use to that.

I could use some help here...I have been on Turge's Viper ROM for the last few weeks and getting fantastic battery life (increasingly better with each time I charge the battery). Well, today I took my phone off the charger and it has now dropped from fully charged to 80% in just an hour and 1/2, with very light to no usage, and mainly on Wi-Fi. The only thing that I can think of that is different is that I just got a new router. Is it possible that a new router could somehow be impacting battery life? I have not changed any of my wi-fi settings or other settings, really just been "business as usual" with this sudden battery drain.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for what could be causing this and how to fix it, please comment!

try increasing wifi scan interval!
Thanks - I'll try that. Where is that option found?

Sounds more like you have a bad app hung open to me. I would start there

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.

Tried this just now and first impression is positive, I hope it stays like that. Thanks

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

Yeah its working for me also. I'm happy. Thanks

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)!

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.
