[INFO] Troubleshooting Common Problems

*Please be aware that if you have rooted your device you may get undesirable results from daily use that I haven't covered here. That is a risk you take or something you have to put up with or solve/workaround yourself, or with your rom provider.*

Have a problem with your dock/battery?
Read THIS first.
My FOTA update keeps failing to install.
You have to fully return your device to stock (not just unroot). Use NVflash to do this. Then go to the asus ftp server and download any update file. Update your device using that file and this should allow your device to update FOTA properly.
Get a tingling sensation when plugging in a charger?
Flip the charger over and plug it into the wall so that the S in asus is on the side with the fat slot on the plug to fix. Seems to be a faulty adapter issue.
My screen isn't displaying anything:
Make sure none of the side buttons are stuck. Press them and make sure they 'click' ok. Force power off your device (10-12 second hold of power button, then release). Wait for about 30 secs. Then power it on normally (6sec power button hold and release). If your screen worked, then stopped, try discharging the battery to 0%. Then re-charging it. This has seemed to clear screen responsiveness for lots of people.
My dock battery is dead and it won't start to re-charge:
Try this tip HERE.
My speaker volume is stuck at a certain level:
Force power off your device (10-12 second hold of power button, then release). Then wait for about 30 secs. Then power it on normally (6sec power button hold and release).
My device/dock battery isn't charging OR my device/dock battery isn't holding a charge:
Make sure the charger is 100% clipped together properly. It's a very tight fit and may need slight force to snap together. Also make sure you have inserted the usb cable the right way up in your adapter. Sometimes unclipping, and re-attaching the adapter parts fixes problems (some come pre-assembled already so this may not be your issue). If your dock battery indicator doesn't ever go green after about 8hrs of charging (not for the first charge) then it may need RMA'ing. A normal charge of the tablet itself, from empty to full, should take about 3hrs maximum (not for the first charge).
My battery is draining very quickly:
Some apps run fine in the background, but there are others that may be 'keeping alive' certain functions, such as gps, sensors, etc. In order to get around this you can use free task killing apps from the market. It's recommended to be selective about which apps you choose to auto-kill. Don't just put them all on auto-kill (unless you are using a 'safe' option in the app) or your system may become unstable. If you have wifi on when you put the tablet in standby, it stays connected. If you then leave the network coverage area, the tablet will continually search for any network around it, draining the battery further. So when leaving home, remember to switch it off. Another possible cause of major battery drain is a badly coded/incompatible app. Get a battery monitoring app from the market and keep a close eye on the logs it produces. Don't watch every little blip/spike in the readings, try to take an average reading, over a few hours/days to get a better idea of what's happening.
Why isn't my device charging when I plug it into my pc?
It will only charge when the display of the device is off. And it is extremely slow and will only trickle charge. There are ways to boost power to your usb port, but the risks far outweigh any benefits.
My keyboard dock has X issue:
The next firmware update should solve many dock problems.
My touchscreen isn't working properly:
A future firmware update may resolve this issue.
My speaker balance is off (louder/quieter in one speaker than the other):
A future firmware update may resolve this issue. Or if you don't want to wait you can read THIS thread.
My X app force closes/crashes unexpectedly:
Check with the app developer/market for an updated version compatible with honeycomb.
The default camera app is showing a green screen:
This was fixed in firmware update1. Upgrade your firmware.
I don't have MyCloud or splashtop apps installed. Where are they?
These were added in firmware update1. Upgrade your firmware.
My email widget isn't updating and always shows 0 emails:
This was fixed in firmware update1. Upgrade your firmware. Then remove the widget from your home screen, reboot and then re-add the widget to your screen.
My wifi signal keeps dropping:
Update to the latest firmware. Set your router/modem to a specific channel (set it to 1-11, NOT channel 12 or 13). Failing that, it's probably time to buy a newer wireless N router/modem (the TF does not support 5ghz, only 2.4ghz).
One of my speakers stays on even when nothing is playing from it:
Put your device into standby mode for 5+ seconds. Then turn on again.
My charging cable is too short:
Some 3rd party USB 3.0 male to female extension cables work to extend the length. This seems to be the luck of the draw if it works for you or not.
I get horrible movie recording framerate issues:
This was fixed in firmware update1. Upgrade your firmware.
My microsd card isnt working:
Make sure it is formatted to fat32. Make sure it's securely fixed into the slot. It has to be pushed in quite a way. Use a long fingernail or the edge of a credit card. Make sure it clicks and holds in the slot. It should be flush to the side of the device.
I have dust under my screen or dead pixels or both:
Return and replace for a new unit by RMA'ing your device.
My MKV video playback is jerky/unwatchable/not working:
Make sure it's a low profile encoded file.
My device isn't powering on:
Perhaps you have put it into APX/nvflash mode by mistake (which doesn't display anything onscreen). Force power off your device (10-12 second hold of power button, then release). Then wait for about 30 secs. Then power it on normally (2sec power button hold and release). If still nothing you might have to RMA it for a replacement.
I can't install any apps from the market:
If you are in an unsupported country you can try THIS. If you're not and still can't install, sometimes google does maintenance that affects certain accounts. Try it again at a later time/date.
My onscreen keyboard is laggy:
Change the keyboard from the default Asus keyboard for the stock honeycomb one. Turn off text prediction. If still laggy you have a conflicting app. If fixed then find another keyboard app that you like.
When I plug my device into my pc I cant transfer any files:
Make sure the device's screen is on, and that the lockscreen is not showing.
My dock isn't charging my tablet above 97%:
There is inbuilt code to stop your device from charging above a certain point to prolong the battery life.
Solid Green light = Battery above 95% charge.
Solid Orange (they call it orange) = 10-95% charge.
Orange blinking = Battery less than 3-10% charge.
Orange fast blinking = Battery less than 3% charge.
My screen is sticky:
Give it a wipe with a microfibre cloth. After a few days of use it will be a lot better.
The XDA site is laggy in the default browser:
Bottom left of the XDA site is a dropdown box. Change the template to 'Classic' mode.
After trying to update the firmware, my device is showing the wrong build number:
Factory reset your device and re-apply the update manually.
I get a strange clicking noise on startup:
It's normal. This is just the camera running through the initialisation process.
I'm having troubles installing apps via the desktop market.
Make sure the screen is on, and unlocked.
I can't login to the android market:
Go to settings>applications and clear the market, market updater and market feedback agent caches. Try again.
My apps are force-closing/crashing all the time:
Install apps that are known to be stable with honeycomb. Try this list HERE.
My SDXC card isn't working:
Format it as NTFS, if you are using files over 4gb on it or the card wont work properly. An alternative method is to format the card as Fat32 filesystem (if you are going to be only storing files under 4gb in size), but you will need to partition it into 32gb sections if you use this formatting system, for the full capacity to be usable.

My battery died very quickly while the tablet was in standby:
If you have wifi on when you put the tablet in standby, it stays connected. If you leave an area of wifi coverage, the tablet will continually search for a network, draining the battery.

You can modify that behavior in the wifi settings. Take a look at the sleep settngs.

I have not seen this mentioned so it probably is not too common a problem but my wifi was initially invisible to my transformer. Switching the channel from 13 or maybe 14 to something lower fixed the issue.

Yes, and I want to stress: wifi performance on standby is problematic and needs a fix. On the Xoom, wifi can be kept on when the screen turns off and standby performance is in the <.5%/hour battery use range. The Asus needs to have wifi set to turn off when the screen is off to achieve this kind of performance (otherwise, it burns about 3%/hour).
I'm hoping Asus is aware of this issue and will fix it soon in a firmware update.

some very good points, thank you

Touch screen stopped responding to touch
Brand new unit after about an hours use the touchscreen stopped responding to touch. It did this on Friday, May 13th, between Noon and 5pm eastern DST. The unit was working when shut of and was in a safe spot. I went to turn it on and no touchscreen. I noted the time as I think there may have been an OTA update then but I never saw anything on screen.
No monkey business, rooting, tinkering etc. Just learning about unit.
I have wiped the memory and cold booted several times, no change. I note that after a forced off the unit turns back on by its self. I saw earlier when I started the browser for the first time, the right 25% of the screen was over bright then went dark. Exiting browser, screen returned to normal and never saw this behavior again.
Screen may be somewhat dim now but cannot get past setup screen as only power key is responded to.
Already asked B&H for RMA but any magic gratefully accepted.
Howard

@easyrotor
Unfortunately it sounds like a clear case of a faulty unit. Don't know of anything that can help in that situation im afraid. Not what you'd want to hear of course, but at least it should be a simple exchange for a new one.

- On this note, does it only apply to Dock-to-Tablet charging or also for PSU-to-Tablet charging?
- I have not try the dock to see it for myself but at least with PSU, it seems to charge my tablet all the way to 100%.

Good point, I'm not sure. I assuming that no matter what, the led on the keyboard dock would show just it's own charge.
Will have to monitor it for a bit and get back to you.

Hopefully later once Asus release another update, it will contain the dock battery vs. tablet battery (that got taken out from the .12 beta build) for us to monitor both.

just wanted to say that this thread is awesome...thanks so much for putting in the effort to document all problems/solutions that may come up with our TF's.

It might be worth mentioning light bleed here?

Saying what exactly? Return and get a new one? Would imagine most would do that already. Plus there's no fix you can do yourself.
I only put those last 2 lines in the first post as a bit of a joke, but I'll add another for light bleed then.

Transformer won't Charge
I received my eee pad transformer from hh gregg yesterday. When I opened the box I noticed that there was a scratch that appeared to be under the the screen. The scratch is very long, but also very fine and you can only see it when the screen is dark and you hold it up to the light. So I figured what the heck, not that big of a deal. However, when I went to charge the transformer, I cannot get it to charge. No light, no nothing. I've tried everything. Plugging it up to the computer, plugging into the wall, taking apart and putting back together, still nothing. I'm trying to figure out what to do. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Asus said I can send to them and they will look at it or I can send it back to the store, however, the store does not have anymore of the transformers in stock.

If you are taking apart and putting back together the wall charger then you likely haven't put it together properly yet; it will not come apart easily at all if it is fully together.
Try pushing harder than you think you should until the pronged portion is snapped in to place and you cannot easily remove it again. If it doesn't snap down, the contacts on the back side don't line up and it won't charge.

Random reboots and other problems?

Hi All,
I've had my (entirely stock) tab for about 4 months, and my patience is wearing thinner and thinner with it.
Frequently - perhaps once a day, I will go to use the tab and find that it has turned itself off. The battery will not be flat; but it's randomly shut down. Most of the time it will restart ok.
However, sometimes - perhaps 1 in 3 times - it won't turn on. I end up holding the button down for ages, letting go, trying again. After about a minute of messing around, it will turn on. Again, the battery will not be flat.
Also, sometimes when using it, it will randomly "warm" reboot - that is, it will lock up for a few seconds, then give me the boot animation before restarting the UI. Athough this is usually a lot faster than a full boot from cold.
Sometimes when the thing is in standby - not being used - i will suddenly hear the sounds from the boot animation. I presume this is the same as the point immediately above, just when i'm not using it.
Does anyone else have these problems? i.e. does my tablet have a hardware fault, or is the tab10.1 just a poor quality product?
thanks

There are about 3 threads going on regarding this. There is an issue with the power button on some older model. If you search you will find it, I just read it last night.

I had the deep sleep problem ( won't turn on after holding the pwr once to make it sleep ) a lot on 3.1 but on 3.2 I only have that problem when my tab is in it's keyboard dock.
Keyboard dock + sleep = generating that 'won't awake problem' but as mentioned, there are a few threads about this yeah.

Green light stays on when sleeping problem.

Hi,
I just got Shield TV. Everything works fine so far. Then suddenly it happened today. When I put Shield to sleep green light stays on. I don't have any USB accessories attached to the Shield.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Sent from my Nokia 3310 using free xda app

Mine is stuck on right now as well.

For me after few resets it works fine. I'm not sure if it will not come back.

Try turning it off fully by keeping your finger on the Nvidia 'button' for around 8-10 seconds. Ignore the pairing screen and eventually you will see an Android message about the system shutting down. Power it back on and, once booted, see if it's still giving the same issue. This forces a graceful shutdown rather than when you pull the power cable, assuming that's what you have tried.

Hey all,
did anybody solve this issue?
I am running full android on the Shield TV and after some time the screen gets black but the green light always stays on.
Even when I power off the device with my harmony smart control hub (puts the SATV to sleep mode) the green light stays on..
I already restarted several times and also forced shutdowns - didn't change a thing.
Has anybody an idea how to solve?
Thanks!

Does the green light also goes off when the device goes into sleep mode automatically (after 2 minutes e.g.)?
My biggest concern is that the device isn't going in a correct sleep mode so that it drains a lot of battery...

Rooted now frozen in Installing Screen. Cannot restart.

Few weeks ago I found wife's old NST (non-glowlight model) in working order and decided to root it. Rooted it, played around with it. Wasnt too impressed, so just threw some ebooks for my kid to read while on vacation. Left it on my desk for a few weeks as I got busy with work. Today I picked it up as my son's vacation is next week and it's frozen on the "Installing... A new software update is being installed This will take a few minutes" screen.
I mean I googled for several hours, the hold the power button for 20 sec method....the hold the power and the "n" button method, I charged it, indicator light is green. I even opened it up and pulled the battery cable..... NOTHING WORKS...]
Please help. So weird...it was working fine and now frozen.

And I guess the drives don't mount successfully. Well, disconnecting the battery should certainly turn it off. If reconnecting makes it start spontaneously (should not), you could prepare a Nook Manager sdcard and insert it before reconnecting the battery. But this sort of sounds like the ability to boot is lost. Hmmm. I'll have to think about it.

unfortunately disconnecting the battery does not appear to do anything... screen continues to show that 'Installing... " screen. Hoping to get this thing figured out with someone's help

E-ink screens stay the same unless there is a new powered input so it could simply be off, having run the battery down completely during an update (maybe Wi-Fi was left on? That would run down the battery for sure). So if all of this happened during an OTA update, it could be really messed up
When my NST is off, plugging in the power pack turns it on. Initially the LED is green and then changes to orange as charging begins. I'm assuming nothing happens when you do the same. If the OS is scrambled from losing power during an update it may not be able to boot. You didn't say how you rooted. If you used Nook Manager you could try putting in that card and then connecting to the power pack, hoping for a boot from the SD card. If you got that far you could try a factory reset.
My power button is sometimes really cranky and a few times I've run through my entire stock of words that do not come from children's books trying to get the device to turn on. So you might try, but if it's really off the power pack should turn it on.

Power pack = charger.
So if the Nook is actually off, attaching the charger with the NM card inserted should make it boot. Did you try the procedure in the link above?

Just tried the procedure of unplugging the battery, holding the white power button for 30 secs, then connecting battery and connecting to charger. There is a split second orange light and then green the first time i plug it in....subsequent plugging results in always green....the issue with the frozen screen on "Installing" remains. Tried the holding x 20 secs method to promt a restart....nothing.... what else can I do?

If the battery is actually "dead" (not impossible on these old devices), the NST will not start, even if plugged in. Do you have a voltmeter of some sort to check the battery? If it's actually charged, it should show a solid voltage. If not, that may be the issue. If the battery is actually charged then there's a pretty serious issue that can't be fixed without access to the OS by ADB, or the ability to boot from the SD card. Beyond my "pay grade", at any rate, I'm sorry to say. There are batteries available online but the price may not make sense.

I don't think it's a battery issue. I had another NST with a good battery but a bad screen (lines all across screen) . I fully charged it using the bad screen reader and used the battery from it for the frozen nook... no luck.. oh well... I guess this is a paperweight now... thanks for your help everyone.

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Not Turning On

Hi people.
So i'm having a problem with my S7 Edge and i don't think it is common. A few weeks back I was using my phone and it would suddenly turn off and the battery would be drained too. After this first incident with the problem it happened more often, and the phone would start doing boot loops to the point where the phone just froze and turned off. When these problems occured it will usually need to be a problem where I do a safe boot (Volume up, Home button and power key), and everything will be fine (or to charge it if the battery drained), but recently, the phone just didn't work at all, to the point I waited for the battery to drain (10 hours), and try charging it, nothing happens.
So firstly I was watching a video and checking my CPU/Battery tempretures to see if that was the problem (the tempretures at the time were around 31 degrees), and mid way through the video it bugged out through the audio in a high screech and turned itself off.
I tried turning it on again but no response to the screen, i tried safe booting it, or every alternative booting option, it did not work at all.
Here is all the diagnostics and repairs I did, but no luck:
- Tried turning it on
- Different boot options (Volume up/down, Home button & power key)
- Cleaning the port for moisture detection
- Replacing the battery for a new one (Genuine one)
- Doing all of the above, with it on charge
- Connecting to a PC, but no detection
One positive I found was that when i put the phone on a wireless station, it would change colour to show that the phone is charging. I have however took the wireless out of the phone as it was in the way of the battery, and safely in my draw.
Before this final fault happened, I did do a recovery to a previous Android version, just incase if it was a software fault, but it wasn't. The phone is not rooted and I had it since September of 2016.
Is there any alternative options to do? As i'm running out of ideas to do as every solution on the internet is to turn it on, which i can't whatsoever.
The warranty is voided also as there is a crack on the screen lens, and it's way too much to pay for a repair.
I need some explination of why this is happening, so I can go in the right direction and not to waste money if i was going to a repair service, or purchasing the parts for myself.
Any help would be highly appericiated.

Check your installed apps to see if there any viruses on your phone. All you said are signs that your phone might have a virus (check how to remove it here: https://www.unlockunit.com/blog/how-to-tell-if-your-phone-has-a-virus/
However, there is a chance that you do not have any viruses on your phone, but at least you have to isolate this possibility.
Did you recall installing any app prior to this behavior?

This may be the case, however i can't turn on the phone at all. I tried every possible reboot possible, download mode, bios mode, safe boot, reboot, but nothing happens unfortunately. Unless i can do it whilst it is turned off, i can do something. I have a PC if i can do anything else with it.
I don't think I have installed any weird apps on the phone.

sounds like a brick to me. Not a lot I can thing of you can do.
If you place the wireless card back in does it boot?
IT sounds like you've messed with the internals, so possible you damaged something?

I don't particularly think that I broke it from the inside as it was behaving the same before i opened it. And when i used the wireless charging, it will only indicate it was charging or getting detected on that charging pad and not on the phone regarding a red led, or the charging icon

Have you tried holding volume down + home + power for 15 seconds and try turning on the phone again?

As mentioned in the description, I have unfortunately
