DMC Client Keeps Crashing - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I updated to 4.2.1 on the US SKU (auto update, not manual) and the DMC Client keeps crashing. It will do it at random times and then mostly when I want to check or updates or use the Unlock Tool (which BTW does not work for me). I really want to root. I know the steps, this is my second pad (RMAd the old one)... Any suggestions?

[Q]undocking

Hey guys when ever i take my tf300 out of it dock it either reloads the webpage or if im playing a game it sends me back to the home screen, is this normal and is there a way to stop it ????
something similar happens with mine - asus needs to address this. however I think that it may be fixed in an update - i'm stuck on .17

It's an unfortunate bug and happens with ALL transformers (Including my tf101). There's AFAIK no way to fix, and trust me I've looked Dx
It's extremely annoying to me when I'm riding in the car or on a bus (bumps and whatnot) and it disconnects from the dock constantly.
its not big problem its just annoying sometimes lol

Yes, happened also to me but it's only a little bug!
It seems HD apps handle this better, so I'm assuming for now that it's in the app's coding.
would mean that asus cant fix it its up to the devs???

Yep, per app devs, unless ASUS finds some sort of workaround.

Sluggish performance

So i just got my new pad and have been playing with it, closing,opening apps, and web browsing. I have found the tablet to be sluggish opening apps or responding to keyboard input in chrome. I didnt recieve any update when i first turned it on. Is there anything i can do?

What software version are you running? Did you click on check for update in the about section?

You are not on Power Saving mode, are you?
Power Saving mode saves battery but makes whole process stutter especially opening application you can see frames stutter and wish you had Buttery smooth Jelly bean there. But on balanced mode, I don't notice any and not sure if Jelly bean would do anything there... as it is already so smooth.
But as far as browser, if you have many applications running behind that may cause keyboard input delay. If not, recommend Cold reboot.

No matter what might go wrong in life the absolute very first thing I wish for is buttery smooth jelly bean. Just last week I was complaining about the price of gas and it made me wish for buttery smooth jelly bean.
I made sure im in high performance mode and checked the updates. Im running build # 9.4.5.22 with android version 4.0.3.its just discouraging since my galaxy nexus is so smooth. Im hoping a good rom comes out soon

I have also been experiencing some force closes for no reason. So far unimpressed...

I have the same problem as you as well as others. I'm on the updated firmware and am incredibly disappointed. I've been supporting Android since it was first released and absolutely love my Nexus phone. I've had a few Android tabs and they have all been lacking. I finally did something I swore that I would never do and used an iPad. I really didn't like it except that it operated so smooth and didn't crash. I ran out and bought this tab as I hoped it would work better so I could ditch the iPad. Unfortunately, my infinity lags when loading pages and Gmail, crashes when watching movies and Gmail, and refuses to open desktop version of websites. I am going to wipe and reload one more time and if it doesn't work, I will have to send it back. I really really want this tab to work.

You want to update to .26, tablet is so much better after update
Huh, after updating I thought this was the only non_lag android tablet I've used besides the Nexus 7 which is even faster. I've also not had force closes and the Primes browsing was ruined by that. Of course it has other issues because that's how Asus rolls.

no. mine came with .21 and i wasn't getting .26 OTA. you download it from the ASUS site, unzip it and put the resultant zip on the root of an sdcard. slot the sdcard in and you'll get an item in notification that there's an update available. bam.
search the forum for detailed instructions.
THAT SAID - although .26 is MUCH better than .21 IME, i still have performance issues with the 700. not so much that it's sluggish - but that the digitizer just stops accepting input periodically. it's definitely a software problem and it's definitely frustrating. haven't sussed out any culprits yet.
doody.

Apparently, dolphin is a bigger botnet than chrome. And that's saying something.

By botnet do you mean the tracking? I mean, we are on Android, it exists for Google to increase their ad information capabilities. It is what it is.
I don't use their sync service, and I don't like their regular browser at all but the new Dolphin beta is pretty amazing. It might be the fastest mobile browser I've ever tried.

Hulu plus not working.

Hulu plus doesn't work with the app or through the browser... anyone else?? Or anyone know a Fix for this??

Whats steps have you taken? Have you tried uninstalling reinstalling Hulu Plus app? If you want to watch Hulu through browser you will have to tweak a few things before you can watch via web browser. I don't have any issues playing Hulu through the app and browser.

Provide some more details, see if I can help:
1. Is Hulu plus ever work on your device?
2. When it's not working anymore? after the latest JB upgrade?
3. Do you have flash installed?
4. When it's not working, what is the error message?

First, are you unlocked? If so, as I understand things, part of the unlocking is the deletion of DRM keys, which means Hulu doesn't work. If you are not unlocked, have you tried to side load the program? Delete the data and cache?

Not for Hulu, are you unrooted when Hulu works for you?
i'm locked and rooted, Hulu plus is working fine for me.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
I'm locked, but rooted. Hulu Plus works fine. I'm also on JB (android 4.1.1). I've used it since 4.0.1.
I'm unclear on your "not this specific tablet" statement, but you state you're on JB. It's like you're implying it worked before. I assume it wasn't working before. Usually, if a app isn't compatible, it work show up in Google Play, and on the Google Play through the web will state it's not compatible; although, some apps show up in Google Play app, but will state not compatible.
I don't know where the thread is, but there is a hacked Hulu Plus app that is suppose to work on any android device. Search for it, and side load it.
As for Hulu through the web browser, it requires a hacked Flash Player that fools Hulu to think you're on a PC. The reason it doesn't work with web browser is because Hulu doesn't all the free Hulu on anything except a PC. If your'e desperate, there's a thread someone on it too. On a side note, I have no idea if they ever hacked an updated version of flash player for it. If not, that version is around eighteen months old, so there is probably security holes in it that are known by now.
Personally, I think you need to uninstall and redownload and install again. There is no reason it should worked. I just used it two days ago and was fine. The only thing I can think of, you're not using a north american release of the Infinity (TF700T) and somehow it's triggering the issue.

TF700 browser entry question

Hi. It takes a long while for the keyboard to respond when entering a URL.. I've tried many ROMs and different keyboards, every time the same.
Do others experience this too?

It's odd! this issue only with .18 version, where the work around was to switch to android keyboard as default (instead of using default Asus keyboard). If you are running the latest .20 this issue should be fixed.

I also don't see this issue with the .18-based CleanROM 2.3.
Sorry, on .20 when I highlight the entire URL and start typing a new site address the keyboard freezes and my new site URL starts to slowly appear. This is extremely annoying.

Interesting, looks like this update has been out for some time. I have only just received the notification. It was released around the time my tab went in for RMA with a new motherboard. Perhaps there was some conflict like people have using the unlock tool that has only just been resolved. I may give the asus device tracker a go and see if it works.
P.S. I have seen the root issues. With the warranty now expired I was thinking of unlocking anyway.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk HD
OK, so checked device tracker and that seems to be working correctly. I have noticed as others have that in the update list I have some US updates when my tab is WW. What that means I have no idea other than my MAC address previously being assigned to a device in the US possibly? Who cares... at least I should be able to use the unlock tool
Sorry for the random thread!! Admin can delete if they prefer.
