WIFI dropping - Asus Transformer TF700

Anyone is experiencing wifi drop outs after the latest update?

No. I actually got a stronger signal. Used to get 2 bars at the table, updated it and got 4.
Change the mode from DHCP to Static. (Longpress the network, modify, advanced)

Thanks but it did not work ..... Actually it reconnects faster but still dropping.... Funny thing is that it started after sometime not right after the update. Any ideas?

I suggest , do a wipe and reflash. We have no issue with wifi so it's just yours and REBOOT your router, see if it helped.

Im getting the same problem tried a number of fixes but it still keeps dropping out

Perhaps the router reset is needed.

changed from DHCP to static...
No more drop outs.

Infinity problem after JB update

Hi, after I updated my Infinity with JB, I noticed the screen ocasionaly flickers, like for half a second one random line of pixels on the left side turns black, and other distortions, very ocasionaly and quick. Is anyone having problems like this?

yeap, sometimes a white horizontal line appears for a second o less in my tablet. I have to tell you that I don't have yet "the buttery" in it. Waiting to have time for a factory reset to improve the performance.
I saw other posts from the prime and the infinity as well, that after a while it gets worse, and a factory reset doesn't help at wall. I whant to resolve this without having to exchange it. I'm sick of having to go to the store and exchanging it. It's my 3rd Infinity.

I have not had what you described above happen to eithor the TF101 or TF201 I had prior to my current TF700T. My TF700T has not shown any of the issue you described after my upgrade to JB. It sounds like something you should take up with Asus right away since it could be a hardware issues and would be covered by your warranty.
anyone else?

I also get a screen flicker since upgrading to Jellybean on my
rooted TF700. I suppose I'll try a factory reset and will report back.

I also get it....was wondering of it was just me. I got my new infinity a couple days before the JB update so I wasn't sure if it was a result or not.

Yes, it's a JB issue. I've only had it happens once, not seen it since.
It's just screen tearing. Happens on a pc, too, although there videocard drivers have Vsync options to forcefully match the refreshrate from the program to the screen to prevent screentearing. I suspect there's a difference between JB and the Transformer's refreshrate.
We're using an Nvidia card, has anyone send Nvidia a message? (I don't have the problem anymore, so I can't make a support ticket...) More likely to work than wait for Google or Asus to notice.
Also, I don't have root nor unlocked, but tp anyone who has, is there a way to change the refresh rate manually?
Should I do a factory reset after updating to JB? I noticed that it got faster, etc... But was wondering if it would still improve after a factory reset. If yes, how do I do a factory reset? And is there a way to have my infinity exactly the way it was (wallpapers, configurations, apps, etc.)?
So I shouldn't return my infinity? If it's a software problem... I'm sick of having to return this model.

I also have problems with my tf 700 after last update... tf 700 is having sistem freezing and restarting.

I have also the same issue than OP. I contacted Asus by email to try and figure out what's wrong. I got the tablet on Monday and upgraded to JB right away, so I don't know if the problem was there before in ICS. But reading this thread I think that it's related to JB. It's a "good thing" though, because this is my second TF700 and I don't want to send it back, again. The first one had a very white spot in the middle of the screen..*. But no flickering black lines issue.
So, you guys think that they can fix this with the next release?
I'm getting this too from time to time. Very annoying!

Are any of you setting options in Settings->Developer Settings? I have heard that the "Force GPU rendering" option was causing random reboots for some.

I'm really not sure then. Personally, I haven't had a singe reboot and/or SOD though, so it must be something specific to the setup for the folks that are having this problem. If you really want to figure it out, I'd suggest a factory reset and try running the tablet without installing all of your apps/tweaks at the same time.
How often does this happen? Can you try running a "bare-bones" setup and see if it still occurs? If not, then slowly start introducing your specific apps/tweaks one (or a few) at a time. Yes, it's a pain, but it's the only way to diagnose such issues... Have you tried looking at logcat outputs at all? That's another way to try and diagnose the problem. These types of issues are very hard to troubleshoot - it's a slow, tedious process. But, since most folks aren't seeing random reboots and or "sleep of death" issues, it is fixable (unless it's a hardware problem, of course).
So, here's a few questions that might help troubleshoot:
1. Has this always happened on your device or only since upgrading to Jelly Bean?
2. How often does it typically happen?
3. Have you tried installing Jelly Bean from scratch (not upgrading ICS)?
4. Are you installing your apps "fresh" or are you restoring them via Titanium backup (or some other backup app)?
Again, there is no quick, easy solution to this type of problem....

There's another thread going on this too.
I had a few lines and flickering day before yesterday, haven't seen this at all the last 2 days.
Another poster on XDA had mentioned that new OTAs take some time to settle down.

I'm back to ICS. Since I never ran my tablet with it (got it and upgraded right away), I want to make sure it's not hardware related. So far, no black lines... I won't upgrade to JB until they solve this!!!

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.

Anyone else experience slowness/ANRs with latest Gmail app?

It seems to take forever to startup at times and then just locks my TF700 for a few seconds before I get the good 'ol Application Not Responding message. Just curious if anyone else has noticed this (started when I upgraded to latest Gmail app a few days ago).

Merely uninstalling the updates fixes it, and re-updating it causes it to crash again. So obviously it's not the tab itself...
Strangely, my Gmail problems just kinda went away... I still have the update installed and it's been running just fine. Not sure what changed.

[Q] home wifi issue

Hey guys,
I need some help with this issue. I am pretty sure it is my home wifi because I don't seems to be having the problem on the works wifi.
so the problem is my device will have slow to no internet connectivity even when i am standing right next to the AP. this is making it to where i don't get any emails and the email app will not let my phone sleep causing major battery drain with the wake lock being "latency" something something. when I get home i will see if i can get a screen shot of it for you.
Any help on this would be nice.
Firstly, give your router a reboot. The whole remove power for 30+ seconds

Then, if you are still experiencing problems, make sure your router's firmware is up to date.

I've had this problem too. Turns out it's something to do with the carrier/SIM conflicting with the wifi connection. It was suggested that I turn off mobile data while using wifi.

Wifi stops working after a while but is still connected home network

Having an issue with the oneplus one where you go to pick it up and start browsing after it has been sitting around a while idling (not sure if the time matters, but it seems like after 1 hourish) and the wifi is still connected, but nothing works that needs data. It acts like it would if you had not internet connection. Toggling the wifi off and on will fix the issue and notifications and emails start pouring in.
I am on stock 38R rooted.
I have the same issue and others do as well. No one has an answer or solution. Supposed to have been reported on JIRA.

Oh that is unfortunate! I just received my OnePlus One yesterday and was having this issue. Was bummed out after finding out the wifi was flakey.
Was this always an issue or just recent with the 33R -> 38R update?
For me it started after the very first update. I just hope its fixed with the next one. I'm on 38r
