You might have a damaged tablet/dock connector have you tried removing possible dust from them?

I remember that used to happen with me, especially with my 64GB usb3.0 stick, but I just tried it now and plugged it in and out of the usb slot about 5 times and it worked fine each time. Same with the sd card slot. Although I'm running an updated version that I haven't uploaded yet based on 10.6.2.6

i can remove the sd card and usb all the time mate its just when i dock the keyboard it wont read them intill i undock then redock them lol

Not sure I follow. Do you mean if you have an SD in the dock, and then you try to dock the tablet it won't read it until you undock and then dock again?

yep thats it mate its the same every single time i do it lol

You said you tried it on all roms: on what bootloader version are you 4.1 or 4.2?

[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 has happened to me also, don't mind it though.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using XDA
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
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2
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.

That happened to me once when I spilled fanta all over my laptop's keyboard. Fortunately though I bought a replacement keyboard from ebay for about ten pounds, popped the old one off and new one on, and it worked again.
As for using the pad's kb with your laptop.. i see this as very unlikely as the only output from the keyboard is the propiretory asus dock connector, as it doesn't output keystrokes via usb, as this is like a straight-though OTG cable to connect to the pad.
I really hope that isn't a serious question.
i thought as much but it was worth a try

if you aint got anything nice to say shut up posts like this piss me off, were here to learn and to teach and to help, posts like do neither if you dont like the question shut up and move on
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2
It may not be an ideal solution, but gmote should allow you to use the tf300t keyboard with your laptop. You would need to have the tablet docked though, and both devices would need to be connected to the same network. Similar apps may allow bluetooth or USB connections, but that's just a guess.
cheersmate ill give that a go as its just a stop gap till i can get to currys lol

[Q] Notepad + keyboard

so last night i was riding in a car and needed to take some notes, popped open my tablet with the keyboard because it was a bumpy road and figured using my fingers on the screen would be hopeless to get the amount of information as quickly as it needed to get put down.. so i tried two different tablet apps i had installed (no internet at the time to find others) and both wouldn't let me use the keyboard to take notes... both wanted stylus/finger mode only... I also tried to use google drive but it wouldn't let me create anything new in offline mode.
any options here folks that one can think of? im not really interested in installing 1000+ notepad apps on the market to find one via brute testing..
thanks.
Supernote. It comes pre installed on the transformer TF300 and works quite well

coulda swore i couldn't get it to work with the keyboard...
ill try again tonight when im get home. maybe i was just frustrated in the car that it wouldn't work instantly so i couldn't find it
There is a keyboard option at the top. Perhaps it needs to be pressed first?

just get the dock from asus.
it's a bit on pricier side. but on the other hand, you got more features:
Battery
USB ports
SD Card Slots
overall it's a better fit.

Now it is not possible to run windows on the infinity. Linux has been done but Windows requires different materials for it to run.

Of this current infinity, no. Of the next, who knows, maybe, maybe not.
Have you tried and asked any Windows tablet owners if they can dual boot android? (I have no idea)
Worst case scenario, buy these 3 things: Windows tablet, infinity tablet, superglue
I'm just kidding of course. I'm sure there is something out there that can give you dual boot, I remember seeing a video of a large tablet (more than 10") that could do this, maybe it was even Asus, can't fully remember.

Yes .. thats wright .. but maybe can run win8 on it
And maybe cannot!!
Really i dont know about that ..
One anther question..
Can i run USB modems on TF700 ?
Just for using the sim card for whatsapp, tango, and viber..
Or should say in the question: how can i run or use simcard on the infinity?
Or also this is impossible and there's no way to use whatsapp, tango, and viber on infinity!

I will be honest, I don't fully understand your question, and could be others aren't either.
Are you speaking of the infinity version with carrier Internet or the wifi version?
I'd say most of us on here have the wifi version, meaning we don't have a sim card.

It should be possible to use a 3G dongle on tf700t but i didn't test it myself because i don't have a dock. Search a bit here on XDA, i'm sure you will find useful info regarding 3G dongles.

Maybe if you buy the original USB adapter from Asus and then hook the 3G dongle, otherwise i can't see how you could use it, the tablet alone doesn't have an USB/Micro USB port.

It is a little odd that their is not a Windows version. Microsoft runs it on many devices.

I cannot promise you that this is 100% correct, but I believe it is said in another thread that Windows 8 requires a different type of software at the boot loader / startup level. Boot loaders cant be flashed anymore after the patch from .26 to .30 when ICS was the stock ROM and you cannot downgrade from .30 to .26. That is why it is said to get NVFLASH which could be done on the earlier versions so if a corruption happened it could be restored. Once you are on 4.1.1 or 4.2.1 you are out of luck, like I was.

This may be what you're looking for. It's not a tf700, though it is still an Asus, with similar setup of tablet and keyboard dock ...

Can't wait to hear the price on that! And I doubt it'll be under $1000....
Edit: Actually - I take that back! Just looked at the Asus AiO, an 18" (!!) Android running tablet docked to a Windows 8 running base, dual booting, great specs and sells for $1270 on Amazon. Damn! Now I can't wait for my desktop to croak....

yeah haha, I'm sure it will have a hefty price tag too!
not to forget mentioning:
what's going to go on with updates to each OS, - how will that be administered?
How slow will it be when asus needs to pair those updates (if it does), i.e. android goes to 4.3, but windows not ready and stays same version.
how much space is left in the device after have Android in there as well as hefty windows OS?
how much support/attention will this get from developers - I don't see many. "bootloader? which one? how?"
Can one run a custom android rom while the other stays stock wondows?
many unknowns here (for us, not general user of course)
still a neat device = yes
do i really also need windows on my tablet, and do I need one larger than 10.1" = no
and asus can remove the 4k hdmi out of the new infinity and focus on I/O, I hope new owners dont get stuck like we did (and tf200 users).
first thing i'll be interested to see are the benchmarks. Thank goodness for sdbags and everyone who make the tablet (tf700) what it should have been, and probably better!
