Hi,
I recently got my Transformer with keyboard dock a couple of days ago and am very pleased with how it's been performing up to now (updated to 3.1 soon after I got it ). I've got one question though (not sure if anyone has tested this): if you have the keyboard docked and you plug the charger into the dock, will both the dock and tablet charge in one sitting? Or does the power not get passed through somehow, meaning I have to charge each device separately?
Thanks.
Regards,
Jon.
Basically yes. The charger will charge whatever needs charging. I have the user created dual charging application that shows me exactly what's happening, and that's how it happens. It's the best case scenario. The ASUS engineer who designed that part of the system was wide awake when he / she was working on it.
Bye.

Thanks for that .
Just a heads up, you're not going to want to leave the tablet docked to the keyboard when not in use as it drains the battery very quickly.

When you say 'not in use' I'm guessing you mean when the tablet is switched on and left alone, right? Or does the same thing happen in this scenario even with the tab switched off? (Probably a dumb question lol )
problem with charging transformer
hi i have problem with this baby transformer ...
when i plugged charger with ac power to tablet charge indicator blink 2 time and then charge led in dock turning off
does it charge now or tablet or dock has problem ??
thanks in advance if anyone with experiences with this tablet aid me .
I think what you're describing is the "no power" light which pretty much says that the battery is completely dead, give it about 20 minutes and the light should (hopefully) come back on.

My charging saga
Here is my charging saga,
Received my TF yesterday (along with the keyboard dock), thought I would boot it up for a quick look. It did not have enough charge to that. Put it on the charger, wasn't sure it was charging then but as mentioned in above post it was getting something cause it came on for a brief moment. After 8 hours I powered on the TF, booted up no issue but I had only 38% charged, but it wasn't showing it was charging (unless I overlooked some kind of icon). Quickly installed dual battery app, it showed battery was not charging. So, I put it on the dock (did not want to I wanted to sell the dock, it was free with the purchase) anyway, the dock was drained also but at least it showed at that time it was charging both. Will see what next after work.
Seems I probably have an issue with the charging cable for the tablet. Cannot get the dock or tablet to show any signs of charging. Unfortunately, none of the stores in my area report having a replacement cable.
Does anyone know another ASUS or non-ASUS device that uses the same end? If I can't find something else then no tablet until I can get a new one off the net which really sucks.
I was able to get the wall charger to at least light up the dock LED and act like it is charging. However, no matter what I do can't get the tablet to turn on. Doesn't matter if it is docked and charging that way or charging straight.
Any suggestions?
I got a dock with my Asus t300 and the tablet shows fully charged but the dock hasn't gotten above 4%. I'm not sure why. Any one having the same issue and/or have a fix for it? Thanks
First question is easy. Anybody running GunBros? My sound is sketchy with this game on my pad running the android revo ROM. It works but it's kinda distorted and has some echo to it.
Next one is a bit more complicated. When I first got my pad, I had to charge it. While it was charging, the screen seemed very insensitive. I thought I had a broken one. Then when I tried it off power, it was fine. I put it out of my mind until I kept encountering the same issue. Whenever the pad is plugged in, the screen performs poorly compared to when not plugged in. This occurred under stock and now a ROM. Is this just a pad thing we all know about and accept?
Bonus question I almost forgot. Is the pad capable of charging via the USB cable? I noticed mine charges fine on wall power but is not listed as charging and loses charge while on a USB cable. This was the cable http://www.ebay.com/itm/251070066899?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
So I got a fast wireless samsung charger from Sprint about 6 days ago. It has been working great but the last 2 days, after the phone sits on the charging pad for a bit, it's stop charging and the blue led light on the pad starts flashing. From what I read online, it's because the device goes into a sleep mode. Has anyone found a fix for this or having this problem also? I am planning on exchanging the wireless charger this weekend. I sure don't think it's my Note 5.
