A word of warning - I received my USB 3.0 extension cable from Amazon yesterday, plugged it in when I got home and it started to charge. I noticed after a few minutes that the charge icon had disappeared and now the charger does not seem to work at all; tried both dock and tablet sockets.
This was the cable recommended from the other thread on the forum about charging the device.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003QZKMU4/ref=oss_product
I'm fairly sure that it is the UK three pin socket part that has died as the machine is picked up by my PC over the USB cable. I've tried the usual taking the thing apart and re-clipping it back together, I've even checked the teeth on the cable to make sure nothing is damaged, still no joy.
I've emailed Asus support but after reading through the forum I'm not overly positive that they will be any help at all. I suppose I'll have to wait for the Chinese/Hong Kong factories to start kicking these out on Ebay as there doesn't seem anything in the UK at the moment. So I'll sit here and watch my 90% battery slowly die and the machine get covered in dust.
Why don't you get a cheap ipad charger in the meantime. Takes longer but do the charging overnight?
Thanks for the tip. Is the propriety charger the same or do you just mean the USB wall plug end?

My PSU died, and after a week of back and forth to ASUS service they have declared my TF DOA and told Comet to replace it.
They are doing a doorstep swap tomorrow for me.
I have also posted about PSU's with a known fault, look in the accessories forum
I had the same issue. For me i fixed my PSU by unplugging everything for 20 minutes. Sounds silly but it works. Unplug from the wall socket, take the usb out of the PSU and the TF and leave it al alone for 20 minutes.

I checked my serial number a few days ago and it was supposed to be one of the ok ones.
I also took the thing to pieces as much as I could without resorting to a screwdriver. It's been left out over night and put back together a few times.
The whole thing doesn't look to be the best put together electrical item I've seen. In fact my Desire charger makes it look like some 5p Chinese shonk, oh err hang on a minute it is.
Just looking at iPad chargers now.
Same thing with me and extension off ebay one day after I got it. What I had to do was a factory reset to get it to show the charge icon. Now it's been fine since going on 2 weeks now.

Funny you should say that, I was all about to give up and then gave it the tap of life on the window ledge and it started working again. The annoying part was that I'd moved it from the usual changing point to test it out so I have had to very gingerly move it back.
It's still working but I'm not sure how long it will last. I think that maybe the USB lead must have move something out, which is odd as it was a really loose light connection. The upshot is the charger is now going to be left untouched and the USB 3.0 lead is going in the bin.
Not really a robust item the wall charger!
Yes, mine was one of the good ones too....

I second this.....same has happened several times to me when trying to get usb 3 cable to act as charger lead extension. Just leave it unplugged for 15- 20 mins and all ok.
Charger or dock battery??
I don't know the inner-workings between the charging adapter, the USB cable and pins - and the dock battery itself so I thought I'd throw this out there:
My dock battery has stopped charging. I can plug the tablet into the dock - have the dock plugged into the wall - and the tablet itself will charge (and the adapter will heat up) - but as soon as I remove the tablet, the adapter cools down, and the dock battery never charges (just blinks orange forever).
I've just been assuming all along that it was the dock or the dock battery that had gone bad for some reason.
But would it be possible that it could be a pin / cable / adapter issue instead?
I wonder if different pins control the charging of the tablet vs the charging of the dock?
I'm *hoping* it's the dock itself because at least I can still return that and wait for another to come in stock. But if it's the adapter or cable, it looks like I'd be SOL and have to send my whole freakin tablet back for a replacement!
I'm sitting on hold with Asus now because last night neither my tablet or dock would charge. I do not have the extension cable but have one on order from Ebay. I was planning to test all the pins on the cable while the unit was charging to figure out which additional pins are communicating with the charger to start the charge. While sitting on hold I came across this post and decided to try the charger again and now my tablet is charging. Will try the dock once I'm fully charged.
I love my TF but this charging stuff is micky mouse. I hear some people can charge connected to a PC, I have never been able to. Now I need to do some more searching to see who had what extension cable from where.
Check the thread link in my signature to see my finding for making a cable to allow charging from other sources.
It's all a bit of pot luck by the sounds of it.
Don't leave it on charge over night, don't plug the wrong sort of USB lead in and don't move the charger.
I think I'll be buying some £2 Ebay charger as soon as they appear, can't be any worse.

A sense of panic set in when my charger stopped working after trying to use a USB 3.0 extension cable I purchased from Monoprice. After following this simple suggestion, I'm happy to report that all is working once again.
I never did get the USB 3.0 extension cable to work though. It was one that others have reported success with too. I guess I'll be sticking to a cheap extension cord for now.
This extension from CompUSA works like a charm. Its prices is awesome too. The adapter charges TF/KB seamlessly for me. Spread the words.

Ultra also makes this cable in a 12 foot length. Part #U12-40579. I have both the 6 foot and 12 foot lengths and they charge my 32TF and dock without issues.Both can be purchased from CompUSA.
Until yesterday, my TF700 was working perfectly fine, but now I'm concerned as the battery in both the dock and the tablet have stopped working.
The AC adaptor's connected to the dock and I always charged both the tablet and the dock together for the most part.
I went to check the device this morning and suddenly found that they're not working at all.
Yesterday evening, I tried switching on the tablet and it would switch on and reach the ASUS screen, but not fully boot up.
I bought it from Amazon's Amazon Warehouse division and I have until the 31st to return this, but in the meantime, I'd like to know why the batteries have died on me suddenly and is there anything I can do about it.

If it's a genuine hardware failure, you'd have to return -- unless you're very proficient at handling and replacing sensitive electronics yourself (microwelding, for example).
It has been reported before, and could be fixe din almost every case by letting the 700 be dead for at least an hour, and then let it fully charge while off (!) -- just let it sit hoked up to the wall charger for at least 8 hours. Then try to turn it on again.
Good luck.

It never hurts trying -- you aren't exactly the first to describe this, but luckily, pretty much all of the others were saved.
I finally managed to get the problem sorted out as it seems that the connection to the port on the keyboard had somehow come a bit loose without me noticing it.
Unfortunately, I have a new problem in that the cable itself seems to have died in that it won't work any more with the adapter as it started crackling a bit when I knocked the connector attached to the AC adaptor itself gently by accident. :crying:

Well, I hope I am right in assuming this is not your luckiest week, huh? Is the cable damaged near the wall charging part? (That's what I understand.) The replacement cables probably are not that expensive, so I'd plonk down on a new one instead of initiating "daredevil repair mode".
Saying that gives me that MacGyver feeling. Duct tape and a pair of scissors would be all that he needs to fix this.
Oh, and maybe a pair of toothpicks and an old sock, just for looks.

The cable itself is fine (it's not worn down to the wire literally like a lot of cables and AC adapters you get for devices like iPods and Galaxy S II's), it's just that it has this weird burnt-like smell at the end connector that plus into the USB socket on the AC adaptor.
As for replacement cables, I'm surprised that they're not that easy to buy offline.

Agreed -- buying them offline is a definite hassle. I have seen them online, though, and you can even hunt down the charger parts or the TF101 and TF201 Prime. They will work flawlessly.
BTW and FWIW (gotta love acronyms), my charging cable smells a bit funny at the end too. This specific one has to put through a lot of power, so I'm not even that surprised.

Just giving you guys a update concerning my device: It seems now that both batteries don't want to work any more for some reason or other as of yesterday. I've checked both the official USB cable and a third-party cable plugged into the official USB plug and they're not charging up the device at all.
The tablet can connect to my laptop as a media device without any problems, but I'm confused as to why it's not working at all when plugged into a USB adapter.
In any case, I'm going to order a AC adapter from eBay later today and see if that works or not.

Hi!
I'm having a weird situation here, I've had my oneplus one for about a year now and I noticed that it has been destroying my usb cables since a month ago... I'm using the stock oneplus charger or a different one, it doesn't make a difference as the cables still break. The cables just stop working completely...
Starting from today even my stock oneplus one usb cable is starting to die as my phone won't stay connected to both my laptops (linux and windows) for longer than 5 minutes, another thing I noticed is that sometimes when I plug my phone into my laptop, my laptop screen just goes black and starts flickering.
Does someone know what's going on here?
Thanks
maybe you can stop sleeping with your cable
The charger can't give more than 2A, so its impossible to break a cable by eletricity.
Never heard of that and I've been in the electronics business since a long time.
The connection loss I know is that I have a hard time copying files over usb with my phone sometimes. Just stops and then the whole process hangs.
My advice, and this is for everyone, is to buy a charger doctor or alike. Just go on ebay or aliexpress and you can get them for less than a sandwich. This takes out the guessing if a cable is ok and what current flows through it etc ....
9 out of 10 cables that I have here are crap. As a matter of test I just ordered a Blitzwolf cable that states that it can charge at 2.4Amps. Not so on our Oneplus it seems. The voltage drop is to big making it go to a lower charge current. The oneplus with the original cable goes to 1.8 Amps when the screen is off and the batt is less!!! than approx 85% empty
The only cable that can is the original one and the one I soldered myself.

See man its not due to the phone destroying cable. But i think it could be that either you are using a bad quality cable, or bending it too much or your power socket is faulty as the phone cant make your cable work bad only the power socket can.
Hi everyone,
So I am here again to quickly give my thoughts on another CHOETECH accessory, this time it is their USB C to USB 3.0 cables.
I have had a cable previously from Rankie, but have found the build quality to not be as sturdy as the CHOETECH ones. These ones are flexible, feel strong with their braided cables, and the design is excellent and looks very professional, very nice on the eye to others who may see them.
The data transfer is fast, as you would expect from USB 3.0! The charging is on par with other cables.
I have attached the link here for my review on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/review/R1YBGPQVRSGV75/ref=cm_cr_dp_title?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B01LYW4WIY&channel=detail-glance&nodeID=560798&store=electronics, and also the link for the product itself https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LYW4WIY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Hope I have helped some of you out, and if any of you have any questions for things I may not have covered, then I shall be pleased to help you out!
I prefer Anker Type-C cable, then Tronsmart next.
It will break after a few months.
I too have received these at a discounted price to review and must say the following:
These cables from Choetech are again of amazing quality. Especially as they are braided. I love the fact they came in two different colours meaning one matches my Nexus 6P in black and the other matches my Pixel C in grey. They are a good length to use at a desk and have good file transfer speeds to a computer when plugged in via USB 3. The charge rate isn't as quick as USB C to C but that is to be expected, however do not let that fool you, they still charge pretty quick although usb charge booster on my motherboard may be helping with that more than anything, but it's comforting to know these cables can handle the extra power sent down by my motherboard. I highly recommend these cables and would buy them again especially from Choetech.
Just a word of warning, I bought accessories from their official Aliexpress shop including USB-C to USB-C cable and car charger. While using the two I managed to destroy USB port on my Nexus 6P.
I plugged the cable as I was leaving a concert day before yesterday and as I was driving home I started to smell something like electric parts burning. At first I thought that it is the smell of the brushes on my car warmer blower. Blower has been making strange noises lately. But as the smell started to get more intense, I was really worried that my car is going to burn. I unlocked my 6P and noticed that the battery was not charging and yanked the cable. The plastics on the cable were like butter and pretty hot! I panicked and pulled the cable out, disconnected the charger and continued to home. It was late in the evening and I couldn´t see what had happened to my phone.
As I got home I tried to charge my phone and it didn´t charge. I noticed that battery has gone from 87% to 56% in about hour. The backside of my phone was melted little and there was damage around the USB port.
Here is few hazy pictures i took with my wifes potato:

I asked about this from Choetech via Aliexpress and they were sorry. They asked if I wanted another cable to substitute the melted one. I haven´t replied yet.

Never heard of the Aliexpress shop always bought them from Amazon. Sorry to hear about your device, however its probably more likely the charger than the cable as i've been using 3 of these cables and had no issues over the last few months now.

Aliexpress is a small time business somewhere around far East.... You should try it sometimes.
I was using Choetech charger atm, which I bought on same order with the cable. I can´t blame any other than Choetech for destroying the phone.
I Love the Magnetic USB C Cables for Charging My Samsung Galaxy Note 9.
I'm Interested to know if Anyone know about a 4 foot to 6 foot Magnetic USB C Cable that Will be able to Quick Charge at QC3 Speeds so the Slow Charging Message won't pop up every time the connection is made.
Please attach Snapshots of the Phone saying Quick Charge and the Cable before and after connection is made and a Link to where to buy it.

When constantly connecting and disconnecting the wire to charge with the regular cable, the plug on the phone gets looser and looser over time.
Also, if and when someone might knock into you with the wire plugged in, then it could make your phone fall to the floor possibly causing it to get damaged.
These are just 2 Very good reasons why a Magnetic Cable is a Good Option.

It's Not only for Data Transfers.
When you have a Low Battery and want to charge your phone with a Battery Bank and are also using your phone while walking around and someone or something bumps into or snags the wire, your phone don't get pulled out of your hand.
Also, what about when you have pets that jump around and knock into you or your wire? I constantly have My dog that jumps up on my lap and down when he wants to get down for whatever reason. Sometimes he catches the wire and My phone still stays either in My hand or on the arm of the couch.
And lastly, when you want to charge your phone in the car, you don't have to concentrate on plugging in your phone. Just put the end of the wire close and it connects on it's own and charges your phone.

Ah, gotcha. Out of personal habits. That makes sense. Personally the only time I've got my phone connected is to transfer large files and that's rare. I wireless charge almost exclusively, home and on the go, so I don't have to suffer the consequences of any pets or people pulling any cords out. Wireless is so lovely.
Have you read the comments in any of the magnet wires on Amazon to see if someone can confirm QC3 speeds?

Yes I have, and they either don't know the True Charging Speeds or don't know the exact Specs of the Cable.
For a QC3 Cable, it would have to be a USB 3 or USB 3.1 Spec Cable. Most Cables are USB 2.0 and most people think that's a QC3 for a Magnetic USB Cable.
A USB 2.0 Cable that Plugs into a Phone Will Quick Charge, but that's NOT the same as a Magnetic Cable.

Using the QC 3.0 chargers won't charge the Note 9 at QC 3.0 speed. Note 9 itself only supports QC 2.0, so when you plug it to QC 3.0 charger, it will still charge at the speed of QC 2.0.
These support QC, I've tested with my Note 9 and it fast charges fine. I've confirmed with an in-line USB power tester and it's going up to 9V and is able to supply as much currently as the other non-magnetic USB cables I've used. Data transfer is also working with this cable.
Hi guys the cable from nu wave supports fast charging of all Samsung devices. As you know quick charge 3.0 magnetic cables are backwards compatible with 2.0. But these cables also support Samsung AFC. They have a video demonstrating generic magnetic cables but the actual cable in the product description and images is what you get which supports the above technologies.
