Bluuuuuuuetttttttooth Keeeeeeeyboaaaaaard Issue - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I left the subject like that to show what's happening to me. The keyboard is fine, but seems to behave like this with the repeating characters ever since the latest update. Anyone else?

Try disconnecting and then forgetting it. Cold-boot the tablet, and then re-pair.

It says 'English' when it boots...

Ok, I must have done something to cause this... when I boot up the mighty TF300T it says "english" across the screen for a few moments.. I took a quick look in the language settings but nothing leapt out... any ideas on how to turn this notification off would be great thanks!
The same happens here, with Português (Portugal).
Same here...I just reset my tablet and noticed it at the first set up screen as well...not a huge deal but I would like it gone as well.
Mine used to do that for a while after I first got it but has since stopped. I don't know for sure what stopped it but the best I could come up with was when I updated to firmware 30 that may have done it.

Do you see the ASUS logo when you boot up the tablet? Can you describe it a little better please?
Do you use ASUS's keyboard (for the on-screen keyboard, that is)? Every time I rebooted my Transformer it said slovenčina (which almost means Slovenian, since I'm using that layout) but stopped once I switched to Thumb keyboard.
Hey you could be on to something there. I switched to the jellybean keyboard. Perhaps that's what stopped it.

It is indeed due to Asus keyboard. Changing to other keyboard stops it.
Observed it once I installed Swype

Alarm Issue on JB

Does anybody else that is running the official JB have this issue? Set an alarm. Choose any ringtone. Wait for it to go off.
For me, when it does, it plays the first note or two of the alarm, then stops. That's it.
Rather annoying and utterly useless as an alarm.

Yes I have the same issue. EDIT: works correct if tablet not locked. But otherwise does not work right. Checked it on Nexus 7 and it works correctly.

got it here too. first day of my new job too...
Just to follow this up.
The alarm works fine if the screen is on. However it doesn't work if the screen is off, which unfortunately is pretty much the only time I'd need it.
Reboots don't change this behavior. Adjusting various display and power settings don't change this behavior. Using the exact same settings on my Galaxy Nexus running JB works fine.
So it appears to be a legitimate bug.
What I haven't tried is a full wipe and reinstall using the JB image from the ASUS website.
A workaround that seems to work perfectly is using Alarm Clock Xtreme downloaded from Google Play.

I tried it, and turned the screen off, no issue. Doesn't mean there's no bug. Too many others are having the problem.

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.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using XDA Premium HD app
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!!!

Incredibly annoying touchscreen problem

Right, could anyone tell me the problem here? My touchscreen has become crap recently. It's really frustrating now, so much so that i find myself punching the screen! (not too hard though, lol).Usually i'm docked, but even then i use the touchscreen and sometimes it doesn't respond to any input. At other times, it recognises some random input not by me. Like whilst i'm in the browser, i can scroll down properly at times because it starts zooming in or something. It didn't happen a lot initially. but i'm noticing it a lot recently. I asked ASUS and they just told me to factory reset but backup my data. When i asked how, they sent me the entire manual. Could it be a hardware problem? If so, would it be better to get it replaced from where it was bought or to just send it to ASUS?
THANKS for any responses.

I have the same problem. I haven't found any fix yet, the only work around I've found is to turn off the screen. After I turn it on again the problem is gone. I'll try and use a touchscreen tester app when the screen goes crazy again. The random touches seems to be concentrated on the upper right corner of the screen. I doubt that it's hardware problem though.
Yeah, that worked for me sometimes but other times it didn't. Trying a factory reset now.

A factory reset seems to have fixed it for me. Tablet also seems smoother. Chrome is still a bit crap though. I backed up my apps using ASUS app backup.
EDIT: rebooted my tablet afterwards whilst docked and somehow my old wallpaper came back. However, the tablets gone back to performing wose now...

Off topic, but does anyone know how to get my email to check it's inbox automatically without me having to open the app each time?

I has similar issues with my first TF300. I exchanged it for a new one and had no problems. I would probably just exchange the one you've got. My second TF300 had sound issues, and I held on to it past the exchange period and had to send it in to ASUS for repair. They had it for over a month. Should have just exchanged that one also.

Above question and it seems that the touchscreen problem is back. Really don't understand. It can't be a hardware issue if it goes after a factory reset surely?

I flashed CM10, and the issues seems to be gone.
I don't want to be flashing ROM's yet. I think the problem only occur when i'm docked which is strange although i may be mistaken

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).
Thanks.

Yes I have. They shouldn't have gotten rid of Andy Rubin...all of the google apps have been getting worse since that other guy took them over. Functionality >> looks ffs
Mine literally just crashes. "Gmail has stopped working" and goes back to homescreen.
Google Play has been doing the same thing for about a week.
Wow. Luckily, mine has been fine till now... :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

got same issue after upgrading CROMI to 3.4.6. Once I wipe dalvik and clear cache partition, all goes back normal, except with "Unfortunately GMAIL has stopped" at initial boot up only.. Perhaps will work with yours too.
Time for a wipe and reinstall?

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.

I think I know what happened... CleanROM must have "cleaned" up the bugs in the Gmail app! That's how good CleanROM is, it automatically fixes any issue with any app - it's amazing! The longer it runs, the more stable it gets...
