MobileDock Version: Not available.

Hello,
I just bought my Asus 32GB about 2 or 3 weeks ago and everythings been perfect with the tablet. Today I went to buy the keyboard and when I tried plugging it in when charging it for a while it would charge the tablet but the keyboard itself or the touchpad would not work. I returned it thinking it was the keyboard and the same happened with the 2nd one. I noticed just a few people reporting the same problem having said the same about the MobileDock Version.
I believe that if there is a way of forcing and install of the mobiledock the dock will work but I am not sure how to do that or if any other solution had been tested.
Thank you very much,
zyLt

I guess nobody has ever had this problem here? Can anyone at least tell me if I am right and the MobileDock version should be installed in the Tab or the dock?

charge both to 100% make sure you are connected to solid wifi go to system settings and hit check for update that should fx it

Well I went back to best buy and after talking to some guy in the geek squad we found out my keyboard was working perfect on the transformer they had on display and i was lucky enough to get a replacement right away even after my warranty for best buy was expired. Also I got to figure out that the MobilDock Version is isntalled inside the keyboard not the tablet
I guess thiss thread can be closed.
My best tip for anyone having this problem is to replace their tablets. I tried to find a fix for 1 week and found nothing online and nobody would say anything. Not even asus costumer service.
thank you very much

Case, stylus, speed? New TF700 owner

I got the TF700t yesterday and I was hoping you guys could answer a few questions for me.
1. Can someone recommend a good case? I'm looking for one that works with the tablet and the dock, but can also separate to be a case for just the tablet.
2. Has anyone found a good stylus for writing and/or drawing on the tablet? Do you use the S note app or a different one? Can anything be done so that the screen ignores a palm that is put onto the screen while writing with the stylus?
3. Is there a way to enable a non-Asus keyboard while in tablet mode without issues when the keyboard is attached? When I set Swiftkey as default it goes a little crazy with the keyboard attached. (I'm thinking maybe an app like If This, Then That, I think thats what it called).
4. Speed. The tablet is pretty fast as is, although it does take a bit to load webpages and apps sometimes. Anything I can do short of getting a custom ROM? I'll probably try out CROMI after a month or two, but any other suggestions are welcome.
5. Google Music and Gmail like to crash alot. Any thoughts on how to fix that?
Thanks for reading and or answering

I like the Asus prime transleeve for a case. Probably not what you are after though.
Try keyboard manager from the PS for number 3.
Performance wise you are going to have to unlock and flash a custom rom to get the most out of it.

[Q] Noob with an Audio Issue

Hi Guys.
As you can see, this is my first post on here but I'm hoping you can help.
I picked up my first tablet, the great ASUS Infinity TF700T about a week ago, following which I read up on unlocking/rooting
& successfully unlocked, rooted & installed CHROMi-X (v4.6.6, which I have just flashed to v4.6.7). I'm now starting to use the tablet for the things I want to do, one of which is listening to music/watching films, & this is where I've come across my first issue.
I have a pair of superb Logitech V20 USB 2.0 speakers, which are powered by USB. These speakers work perfectly well with my laptop but when I plug them into the full-sized USB port on the Infinity's dock, the sound, which, when playing through the Infinity's own speaker is also perfect, albeit quiet & lacking any real bass, is awful. The audio can be heard but only just, as it is somewhat distorted & there is a loud crackling noise associated it. I've tried using different media players (VLC, MX Player, Meridian) & changing their settings (including decoders where possible) but nothing makes any difference.
Does anyone know what the problem is? I'm going to be gutted if I can't get any decent sound from this device, especially since it's so awesome otherwise :crying::crying::crying:
Thanks in advance
Just to let you know, I just thought to try my wireless USB mouse in the dock's USB port & that works fine (except that rolling the wheel down scrolls the web page up & vice versa but this is also the case when I use the touch pad to scroll. Any ideas why that is or whether it can be changed would be helpful too?
Oh, & if anyone knows how I can get my @ and " symbols to switch back to the correct keys (at the moment, the @ is on the 2 key where the " should be & vice versa), that would also be good?
Cheers :good:

The USB port on the Infinity's dock is not made to power speakers so you wont be able to get them to sound anything much, lucky to even get them working. If you want to scroll, try holding down both button and going up and down with the mouse, maybe it will scroll, because the keypad will scroll whatever it is on when you use 2 fingers on it and go up and down.

Did you select the correct SKU in the installer? I have a US keyboard and the @ symbol is on the 2 key.

Decent Audio?
HI Guys,
So, thanks for your responses so far.
berndblb, in answer to your question about the correct SKU, if by that you mean the bit where I had to choose either US or WW during the CHROMi-X setup, as far as I'm aware, yes, being in the UK, I did choose the WW option but is there any way I can check this or would I have to re-flash my device & start all over again after I've spent the last week setting it all up?
Tylorw1, with regard to my USB powered speakers, it doesn't sound like I have much choice in wanting to use them, which is a shame as they're superb & don't need any additional chargers etcetera, which is great when I'm travelling
However, if that is the case, which I imagine it is because I don't suppose that there's any way to make the tablet's USB power the speakers, what's the best way for me to get decent sound from the tablet? I've read about both Bluetooth & speakers that connect to the 3.5mm headphone socket but are there other types & which is the best option, that is, which gives the best sound?
I've read that the BT speakers can have connection issues but I don't really want to have to clip anything to the tablet & obscure part of the screen whilst I'mwatching films, which is how most of the other type of speakers seem to work. Plus, of course, I'll need to carry around seperate chargers.
Coincidentally, I was about to buy the Bose Soundlink II BT speaker for use with my phone whilst I'm at work. Would you recommend this for the tablet aswell, or is there another speaker/type of speaker you prefer. My main concern is the sound quality. Cost comes a close second but within reason, I can stretch a little if there's something worth stretching for
I hope you can help?

Your SKU is under About Tablet > Build Number. After the bootloader version it will show US/WW/ODEX/DEODEX
Also check what keyboard and language you have selected under Language & Input.

Cool, I'm not a moron It says WW/DEODEX. I'd already checked the options I knew about, so Language is set to English (UK) & keyboard is set to Swiftkey. That said, now I'm puzzled as to why those 2 keys should be the wrong way round. Your suggestion made perfect sense but if I've not made a mistake, why else would they be the wrong way round? As I said, I have installed the SwiftKey keyboard; it couldn't be that, could it?

Ok, I got it.
Under Language & Input, tab the Asus keyboard, set the language to English (UK)
Tap "Defaut", set the hardware keyboard to "on" and select the Asus keyboard as default for it.
I just switched to English UK under Asus keyboard and did have the " where @ belongs (for me)

That's the ROM version, not the bootloader version.

We're cross-posting here :sly:
I also use Swiftkey. I just tried what I believe is your setup:
Swiftkey as default for hard and soft keyboards.
Cannot replicate the switch....
The only way I can find to switch keyboard layout is by selecting the Asus keyboard as default for hard keyboard an changing the language for it to English UK :what:

It's Not SwiftKey
To rule SwiftKey out, I've just downloaded the US Keyboard & tried typing with it set to UK & then US. Bizarrely, there's no difference either way; I still get @ on the 2 & " where @ should be on the ' ??????

I doubt that Swiftkey would have the functionality to re-assign the association for the hardware keys.
Swiftkey is build for software keyboards mostly, for a great variety of devices.
Probably the Asus keyboard is the only one specifically designed to work for the hardware keyboard.
Try the Google keyboard, play around with settings.... Good luck!

Actually, It Is SwiftKey!
So berndblb, once you got me thinking about bringing the stock keyboard into the equation, I've just played about with it & if I make the stock keyboard the default, my @ & " are the correct way round; if I use SwiftKey, they're the incorrect way round, regardless of whether I have it set to US or UK. Annoying but I'll get over it.
Anyway, I'm getting off topic. The main point of this post was to try & get people's opinions on how I'm going to get the best sound from my tablet, given that I can't use my USB powered speakers due to the Infinity's USB port not having the capability to power them!
Any suggestions/opinions would be most appreciated

Right, when you installed the rom it also included Keyboard Manager (unless you chose not t install it). The reason I include this is to fix this exact problem. Basically in keyboard manager set up the keyboard to be ASUS when you are docked and it will keep your layout rather than switch to the default US that swiftkey forces. Naughty swift key

Perfect

Hey sbdags,
Thanks for that; it worked perfectly. That sort of support from the developer of the ROM I'm using is superb but part of the reason I installed CHROMi-X was that I learned, particularly from reading berndblb's posts, that you possessed a high level of attention to detail, so being a fellow perfectionist, that kind've swayed me I had already looked at the app but didn't fully understand what its' purpose was.
Now I've got that sorted & I'm used to the scrolling difference between the Infinity & my pc, might I ask one more noob question?
I presume you've read that my initial query was with regard to my USB powered speakers not working with my Infinity (that's not the question )? Tylorw1 replied that this was due to the Infinity's USB port not being capable of providing enough power. Given that I believe it unlikely that I could do anything about that, I asked if anyone had any recommendations of what speakers, of what type, would allow me to get the best sound from my tablet. However, whilst my questions about the USB port & now the keyboard have been answered, no-one has mentioned the actual speakers.
Is that because I'm asking in the wrong place, or even on the wrong site, as this is a developers site & you guys only help with software/performance issues? I figured that even if that was the case, that as you guys spend so long with your devices, your advice might be the most reliable & useful?
Thanks in advance

I doubt many users have USB powered speakers that is all. I've certainly never used any. It's possible it's an android USB thing but USB is an international standard so I suspect that it is more low level in the USB driver modules or kernel even.
It's unlikely to be an easy fix. You could try asking Asus if they support USB speakers but it is very possible they won't know.

What DO you guys use?
Thanks for that but if this is the case.......

what sort of speakers do you guys use & what are considered to be the best? I spent several hours reading up on this again last night & am leaning towards dual useage for the Bose Soundlink II I was coincidentally already going to buy for use at work.

I'm always amazed that the manufacturers of products seem unable to answer questions about them; if they don't know their products inside out, why be so against other people working things out & telling those who have questions?

Bose Soundlink II
Hi Guys,
I just thought I'd let you all know that I finally went for the Bose Soundlink II mobile speaker & it's awesome! If I didn't know better, I'd swear that the sound was coming from a much larger speaker & the accuracy of the sound from it, in comparison to my audiophile home separates system with floorstanding speakers & a 24 inch cubed acive subwoofer, is amazing.
Oh & I'm loving my TF700T more as every day passes
Thanks for all your help so far (& for all the help you'll hopefully provide if I ever come up against any more problems )

Check out this thread. People report that USB audio is working on different devices. But from what I have read you need to be on cyanogenmod.
Hopefully our kernel supports USB audio. I'm sorry I can't check right now if it does.
Good luck

Are you saying though, that if I want my USB speakers to work, I would need go flash Cyanogenmod? If so, given that I've now forked out for this superb Bose Soundlink bluetooth speaker & I love Chromi-X, I would be rather loathed to do it.
Thanks for the advice

[Q] Keyboard for tf101 won't type

Howdy, I was instructed to ask you folks, as apparently, you are the gurus of this stuff.
I have the keyboard. I love it docked to my tf101. It did so much for me. I stress did. Now sometimes, keystrokes won't appear. it is not the same keystrokes and it seems to happen intermittently. I really don't want to have to send this back, as I am certain there will be a charge for it, and I am wondering if there is a firmware fix to this. I know that the firmware is the most current, but sometimes a reinstall of the firmware can fix it, but before I did that, i wanted to pick your brains. Thoughts?

Broken Tablet recycle

Hi everyone,
Hopefully this is in the right section (kind of a forum noob here ). Anyway, let's get to the problem.A while ago, I received as a gift a tablet, specifically a Nordmende ND-8014rk. It's probably a rebrand. Unfortunately, I broke the screen; everything seems to work and I can use it if I connect a USB mouse. The problem is, it seems to be impossible to repair. The manufacturer doesn't reply to my email nor answer the phone and all the places I asked said they didn't have spare parts. I have also searched myself for spare parts, but with no luck.
That said, I thought of connecting the tablet to the tv and using as a Media Center since it also as a full size USB port. Problem is, I don't know how to control it. I could use mouse and keyboard, but it's not really comfortable from the couch. So I tried using TabletRemote(free on the PlayStore) but the keyboard does not work.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
P.S.: excuse my english, it's not my native language
