When I upgrade to ICS, my tablet exhibited all issues everyone was complaining about.
1) Battery drain. - the culprit of this issue is GPS. The GPS was preventing tablet from going into deep sleep. I have disabled GPS but kept Google location service enabled and that fixed the deep sleep issue. Also there were some incomparable software which prevented deep sleep. XDA app was one of them.
2) Random reboots, shutdowns, and lag. - the culprit of these issues is software incompatible. All you have to do is perform full wipe and cold boot using recovery by pressing and holding power and volume down buttons. After reset, all issues are gone.
To troubleshoot use next tools.
1) CPUSpy - it will show of tablet goes into deep sleep.
2)Battery settings in the rom's system setting is helpful to see if the phone sleeps but will not show if it deep sleep.
3) BetterBatteryStates is very useful to see which process keeps tablet awake.

If it were that easy Asus wouldn't be working on a fix to push out to us. They have already confirmed there are issues.
My tablet didn't exhibit any of the reboot issues up until a few days ago. Which means even though your "solution " has seemed to help so far it could end up happening again later on

I have been running for 1d and 20 hours using tablet and still have 60% left. No reboots no lag runs smooth. Also there is an issue with GPS which keeps tablet from going into deep sleep and that is what Asus is working on. If you disable GPS and remove xda app that will solve your battery issue. Also xda might have fixed their app since then. Full wipe will fix other issues.

I understand and believe you. I'm saying that the amount of time you have without any issues is not long enough to be 100% certain all issues are gone.
That is why I stated that's I had NONE of the issues for a couple weeks then out of nowhere they started.
Tho I hope your solution works in the long run and helps others as well

I am just sharing my findings. I think GPS is the biggest contributed. Just disable it and see how the tablet runs.

If a full wipe was the solution, then you will not find so many threads about the reboot or other issues.
it is just pure luck, some did all the steps of full wipe, full reset, go to stock HC then stock ICS, in all ways some keep getting issues and some do not have any.....
and as it has been already mentioned above, the issues have been confirmed by asus and they are already working on a solution.

My experience: I've done a full wipe, installed few apps from scratch (no restore), disabled GPS and installed autoairplane app. Everything seemed ok, two days and one night in deep sleep with 8% of battery drain per day. The following morning the tablet was switched off with 0% of battery
Great that you have resolved the issues for your TF101 and thanks for sharing the steps you took you to get that far.
It's only a limited set of devices though (1) and a limited amount of time.
I still believe most TF101 ICS issues are related to drivers. Just like it was initially with the first Asus HC release. Updates will improve stability.
the culprit of these issues is software incompatible.

I agree, this is just a poor choice of words..and with the title of the thread, you are really just ginning up controversy here now as a thread of this nature has already been closed because of someone insisting that a full wipe solves reboot issues..I would have phrased it more scientifically correct by saying 'the culprit seemed to be software incompatibility', you could even throw in the obligatory 'to me' lol. When you state things with such certainty in a development and electronics forum where terminology and phrasing is very important you are misleading people (noobs and lurkers) who are then going to complain and whine about being misled (and possibly mess up their device in some cases). Safer to state your 'findings' in less certain terms IMO.
And as I already pointed out in another thread, in order to say anything equivocally about a solution to a common problem like random reboots you need to have tested and confirmed the proposed solution on tens and hundreds of units, which very few of us have access to to test with any clarity of results. So anyone *should* take users' proposed solutions with a grain of salt barring they are employed with Asus or Best Buy and could have done such testing. Other users have proposed build.prop fixes for example, only to realize they had reboots and didn't even notice. 1 day is not long n this timeframe- I have one once a week tops..but I still have them..lol
The only problem i had was the apps disappearing from the launcher whenever i exited an app. I thought i solved this by installing a new launcher. But it returned after a few days. I did a full wipe and installed apps from scratch. since then my tablet has been running smooth and fast. no issues. May be it's the apps we install that are causing the problems.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
I think it is the graphics acceleration driver. Many games are not working to me, they just exist to launcher and in logcat i can see SIGSERVs because of openGL ( this is from memory, I don't have my tablet here right now).
We must wait until ASUS releases a fix.
I'll come in with another just wait and see like other folks have said. I did my ICS update with a full wipe and then only installed apps I felt comfortable with instead of just doing a full reinstall of everything. For days life seemed grand with everything working just right. Then I got a few reboots and now the constant media converter dying message. So be happy things are working well for you but be prepared for the errors to creep in.

I suffered from random reboots. Whenever my device went to deep sleep it could not come out of it. What I did to remedy this is to root and install set cpu. After installation, i changed my minimum freq to 312mhz and my max at 1ghz. So far, for about a week, i have not suffered any random reboots/freezes. Also, using cpu spy, it does go to deep sleep. I hope this helps.

You are *definitely* wrong on this one. There are numerous documented accounts of people having this problem even on stock, unrooted TF101 tablets that have been wiped both before and after the ICS update was applied, and have nothing or next-to-nothing reinstalled. I'm one such person.
A full wipe most definitely does NOT fix or prevent these problems.

It did for the OP and a vast number of other users. Doesn't work for everyone but it is a viable solution.
I originally suffered from horrible battery life after updating to ICS, but I took a page from the book of the Gnex when it comes to sudden horrible battery life. One of the biggest problems on the GNex with sudden battery drain a lot of the times had to do with Google Maps. I used CPU Spy and Better Battery Stats and sure enough, Google Maps was constantly running in the background, putting the tablet into a wakelock and most likely running the GPS. The tablet wouldn't even last half the day WITH the dock. Went to apps, uninstalled updates and reinstalled the most recent version and since then the battery life has been PHENOMENAL! I've got the tablet with dock and it'll go most of the week, if not all week before the dock starts running low.
Hope this helps others. Can't guarantee it'll fix your problems but it fixed mine.

This has been my fix from the start and have only had one self-inflicted random reboot and (Horndroid here is a nod for you) another reboot after I updated Google+. I reverted back to previous G+ build and all is back that way it was before.

When you say 'uprooted' do you mean non rooted? I didn't have the systm update and after I rooted mine, never really had it. You can try to hve a background application running, like the music player, but paused. Though there is supposed to be an update to fix it soon.

Be patient. Toshiba has done a lot in working to resolve this issue. They asked owners, including myself, to exchange their Thrive directly with the engineering department so Toshiba could look at examples with the issue.
Based on my conversations with the Toshiba engineer, I fully expect the fix to be released within 2 weeks if not sooner.
That's great. It is an exquisite tablet. I am glad they are working so hard to fix this problem.

Thrive works perfect! Go on Toshiba!!!!
Still SOD
I just downloaded the latest update today and I still have the SOD issue . I am generally a patient person when it comes to fixes on brand new devices, but after two updates I had really hoped that the problem would be solved. I am still looking around to see if there is some sort of temporary fix while they develop a more permanent solution.
I also still have the issue. In addition, I now have more random reboots (had them rarely before), laggy keyboard (was fine before), very long boot-up process, and terrible battery life.
I did a factory reset after the update, because the update put my Thrive in virtually unusable condition. I lost 4% on my battery just typing a 3 sentence reply in a forum!! I actually hoped a factory reset would roll back the update, but no such luck. It did improve battery life, although it's definitely worse than it was pre-update. And it seems to have improved the keyboard lag, as well. The boot-up is still much, much longer than it was before and the SOD and random reboots continue.
Mine is working awesome no sod no random resets seems to be fine.
From a thrive unrooted
I'm still having the SoD. Bummer.
Sorry if this is already posted around here somewhere, but I found this yesterday and was surprised that I hadn't seen anything here about it:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8853-working-sod-fix-from-dalingrin/
I installed the new kernel on both of my TouchPads last night, cleared both caches and fixed permissions, and set my lower CPU speed to 192MHz (from 384MHz to help prevent SoDs previously). I wasn't using SoftLocker, so I can't comment on that.
I haven't had a single SoD yet, and I left one of the TouchPads unplugged overnight to see what the battery drain looked like with the new kernel. I'm pretty sure it drained <1% overnight, and CPU Spy shows that all that time was spent in Deep Sleep.
Obviously this isn't a long-term evaluation, but initial results look promising.
UPDATE: Some folks have reported that applying this kernel breaks sound for them. I know it's happened to some people on alpha 1 and others on alpha 2.1, and I also know it hasn't happened to others (myself included). There's quite a bit of discussion about this on the linked thread, so if it happens to you, please refer to the existing information there.
Just flashed this clearing cache, dalvik and fixing persmission.
No SoD yet but NO SOUND.

I think that may have happened to some other folks on the rootzwiki thread. Read down a bit and see what they say. I believe some of them reflashed CM7 with the new kernel (toward the end of the thread) and that fixed the issue. Worst-case scenario, someone has uploaded a recovery zip with the original kernel so you can roll back.
For what it's worth, neither of my TouchPads lost sound, so it's definitely possible to apply this without that happening.

I don't think it's been mentioned much because it isn't a common issue anymore, i've never had sod on my touchpad and a lot of people claimed alpha 2 fixed the issue.
Sent from my HP Touchpad using Tapatalk
Alpha 2 definitely didn't fix the SoD issue (otherwise why would Dalingrin have kept working on it?). I think most folks used some combination of SoftLocker and cranking up the minimum clock speed to avoid it, both of which have significant impact on battery life. Hopefully this kernel (or some subsequent iteration if this one doesn't fully address it) will give stability and good battery life, particularly when the device isn't being used.
I've had the SoD on both a1 and a2. Flashed this fix. No SoD yet. Sound is still there too.

according to the rootzwiki thread the fix is not allowing WIFI to go to sleep mode. This was the cause of most SODs.
You'll find in this fix that your WIFI will not turn off during sleep even if you set it to do so.
so after i installed the update it don´t save my "overclock"
i set up 1512 mhz but after reboot it´s gone and back at 1200
any idea for this?
Im not sure if Im the only one. But since Alpha 2 I have yet to see SOD, was there anyone else who saw SOD vanish completely with Alpha 2?
I had one sod with alpha 1 then none with alpha 2. I haven't installed any apps or changed CPU settings it just has never happened to me.

After playing with it for a while, no SoD, but now I'm having wifi issues. Won't stay connected. Did a restore back. Now no wifi issues, but as soon as it goes to sleep, it wont wake up. Uggh. Can't wait till this gets stable. Getting bored of webos.

Try No-Frills from Market. He's on here too. No SoD for me. It has some feature that prevents it.
Alpha 2.1 was already out by the time I got my touchpad, only had 2 SOD on it prior to installing this patch and none since. Currently I am using No Frills CPU with 192 min and 1512 max I think. Running great and no other issues to speak of. Sound is working fine and this has not impacted my battery life at all, may even be better.
Op should be updated to state that this kernel breaks sound on alpha1. Make sure you are on alpha2 before flashing.I posted both a revert and a repackaged alpha2 with the fix already applied in the thread on rootz.

Ok, random reboots are gone...now it's just sleep of death.
Every. Damn. Morning.
No kidding...every single day, the thing has shut itself off and drained it's battery completely..TABLET AND DOCK mind you, for about a week now. I can't set it down and close the lid..I feel like I'm using paul burton's Spark ROM. I am actually about to RMA this thing myself because of this......
It's getting very hot on recharge from completely dead, and it's done it so many times now I fear it's very likely to have damaged the life of my battery as an end-user..
Add to this..dust INSIDE my camera lens, dead pixels, and half-working microSD slot (the card has to be inserted JUST SO..in order to be recognized).
I want a new device..I'm done playing around with this defective toy, I want a real workhorse that I can depend on, I need it for my projects. Sadly, I have a SBK1 too...
Had only a few reboots a week on all ICS stock, Revolver, Revolution and CM9 roms. No battery drain. I do not have a dock.
Since I flashed CM9 Megatron a few weeks ago, I experienced no reboots at all, except a few lockups on Home Screen. Since Megatron 1.0.3 based on ICS 4.0.4 and the latest guevor kernel test13, it's running smooth as butter with great battery life and overclocked to 1.4GHz.
Does the battery drain like that when it is not docked?
With all those issues, you should RMA. Although when you get the device back it will probably still have sleep of death (and maybe random reboots).

In another thread, it was mentioned that the ICS update defaults the TF101 to have the setting "stay awake - screen will never sleep while charging" enabled, no matter whether it looks like there's a checkmark on that setting or not. When the tablet is docked, it is considered as "charging" and therefore it will stay awake and drain the tablet battery and the dock battery. The fix is to manually toggle the checkmark on and off on that setting, whether there looks like there is a checkmark there or not. That's why I asked whether or not the battery drains when undocked.
Strangely I didn't get a second update yet

The 'fix' was reported to be simply unchecking and checking the box (it's toggle is set to on, but the actual feature is disabled until you do this). I had previously done this, and forgotten about it..but I will go check again, though I am pretty sure that my CWM backup was made well after my settings were adjusted like this, and the backup I restored and am using now did not previously crash like this.
EDIT: Also, once the dock is drained to 3% it is supposed to stop 'charging' so it *should* not result in draining the tablet's battery completely (from full charge on both units however, with screen off, awake or asleep, I would think I could get more than 8-10 hours battery life without draining both batteries to 0%..yes, 0%. This is what scares me that the batteries have been damaged..after 5-8 times that it has overdischarged now..)
Experiencing the exact same issues here
SODs and complete battery drain when supposedly off. My tab is also permanently connected to keyboard.
Getting very frustrated now.
I've using Revolver ROMs for a long time now and these issues only occured after flashing the ICS betas. It had gotten so bad that I went back to Honeycomb but the SODs and battery drain persisted even then.
Tonight I flashed the newly released Revolver RC1 rom in hope that the issues would be fixed but unfortunately I've had a random reboot already
Not sure where to go now as the stock Asus rom has these issues as well I believe. iPad anyone?
Rant over and many thanks to all the devs for their unselfish work.

Well, my screen keeps coming on. That seems to be the problem. At random while docked, it just comes on. I look at the dock when it's closed and see it's on..so I open it and manually turn it off (the screen not the device) and leave it open..a few minutes later, there it is again, on..for no reason.
This is my likely culprit, and it's really pissing me off. I am on a stock ROM, so unless this is guevor's kernel's fault, it's Asus', I'm leaning towards Asus.
However judging from some of the responses, it would seem users are having this without using guevor's kernel..so there goes that option.
Can anyone confirm they are getting this issue with the stock kernel?

Came here to consider rooting my tablet to fix similar issues, and you all are having the same issues. I am NOT rooted, tablet keeps going into some sort of "deep sleep" (that's what a developer friend called it). Sometimes the battery is draining to nothing, sometimes not. Although, once it goes into this sleep mode, it's near impossible to get back out and always requires a reboot.
PLUS the constant rebooting for no reason, right in the middle of work. This thing's been super buggy since the ICS update, ASUS is absolutely no help (worst service I've experienced in years)...wish I had never installed it. NOTHING about the update is worth all this headache...
According to my research, it's a known issue...meaning ASUS knows it's a problem and are supposedly working on it. I kept reading about another OTA update that was supposed to fix some of these issues last week, but haven't seen anything yet.

Not exactly a product-wide issue. For whatever reason, some Transformers, like mine, do not have the same problems or not nearly to the same extent. I have had 300+ hour uptimes (2 weeks) with this iteration of ICS, though, when it does go down, I suspect it might be when I choose to use Flash in a browser. I haven't really looked into it. You are also mixing up issues. This particular issue is with dock owners. Toggling the "stay awake" setting may or may not help in this case. I don't have a dock, so I don't know. Some say it did help.
The issue you are describing is separate and has a workaround and a possible fix posted.

ASUS might have already resolved the problem in their TF101G firmware, but I don't know why they haven't released a patch yet for TF101.
As many have pointed out in other threads, it's not possible to extrapolate how many are affected by your issue because this is a support forum that pops up high in the Google rankings. Many people end up here when looking for support for problems. Therefore the population here is naturally going to be disproportionately high in people having problems. I myself ended up on XDA because of an issue with the Lenovo K1 tablet.

I started getting a random reboot here and there after the last update, but only when low on battery and when its plugged in. It will have less then 20% batt, plug in and then it'll reboot instantly after a few minutes.
Its a pos and i am getting rid of mine. I shouldn't have to root or install an app for this **** to work. Complete and utter fail.
Has anyone else had issues with significant battery drain after the 7.3.0 update. I was rooted and thought I had blocked the update but got it anyway. After some trouble, I was able to reroot but started noticing significant battery drain (like 50% overnight) and wasn't sure if anyone else was having any similar isssues
the best for me, was 7.2.1 no 7.2.3 or 7.3.0, vecause it is faster, save more battery, less bloatwares, no wifi bugs, i would love kinology with 7.2.1

Yeah I prefer 7.2.1, mainly due to the low signal Wi-Fi issues I had with 7.2.3.

7.2.1 dont have bugs, i dont see any bugs, and it is faster
I have the same problem, since i updated kfhd to 7.3.0 the battery drains too fast. Almost twice as before.
Was getting noticeably worse battery life with this update, then my KFHD froze and bricked on reboot a few minutes ago.
Not sure if its related, but this update has been a heck of a headache. Will try recovering later, but really hate having to start over. Might ditch this as my primary and use my N7 instead.

I have the same problem .But hope to soon have CM10.1....Wait ....wait and wait
It seems that most of the problem I am having with battery drain is related to a service called com.nokia.odnp.service Is anyone familiar with what that does?

How did you manage to reroot after 7.3.0? I am having major issues with this!
Battery drain on my suddenly-no-longer-rooted 7.3.0 is not an issue

I had tried several methods and none worked for rerooting. I was stuck in sluggish mode and was trying to get rid of that when I ran across a post by redwes on this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069117&page=48
I was thinking that it would just get me out of sluggish mode but it ended up rerooting my kindle, so you might try that.
In order to fix the above problem after updating to do Reset to factory defaults.
It seems that the problem with the battery drain, at least in my instance, is related to the location service. Kindle customer service had a look at my logs and suggested I try to turn off the location service to see if that helps. It seems to make a huge difference. It still needs to be fixed by amazon, but that seems to be where the issue lies in my case

The battery drain is associated with the app "com.nokia.odnp.service".
I spent a rather unproductive hour and a half with Amazon yesterday trying resolve why this app was included with the 7.3 update. I initially sent an email and got a rather deficient reply, then did a live chat and again got very poor response (both of those I communicated with did not have english as a first language and it made communication difficult at best). After some frustration I was kicked up to a higher level of assistance who was far better at communicating. This person insisted this was not a Amazon initiated app and the solution was to reset my Kindle hd to factory default...which I was unwilling to do.
Unless more folks complain directly to Amazon the battery drain associated with the app contained in the recent update (in spite of Amazon's denial) issue may go unresolved. The Gsam battery monitor (App sucker) identifies this as a kindle system app that cannot be accessed. The only way to stop this app & it's associated battery drain is to turn off the location based services.

Unremarkable, nothing but security update AFAIK.

I didn't have optimizing apps like normal and the update was much faster, but than again that might have happened since we got Nougat and I didn't notice it in the last two updates.
Otherwise its typical security update.
Actually after I did the update, now every time my phone rings Spotify starts and I cannot figure out how to stop that from happening. Extremely annoying

S7 edge here. Got it last night, no issues so far. Wondering if anyone can report on root status?
EDIT: Actually working fine with no issues after several weeks.
Patch installed. No issues.

I had two bugs that it actually fixed:
When I was connected to AC power, and on bluetooth, and would hit the dialer app it would restart the System UI and display an error stating that the system integrity couldn't be verified and suggesting to recover the phone using the Verizon **** tools.
When you set a reminder and turn the screen off before the "Reminder saved" verbiage was stated then the phone will go ahead and say that EVERY time you unlock the phone.
It has caused noticeably higher battery drain on my S7E during the day. I left it fully charged and unplugged over night after the update, and it only lost 2%, so Doze is working in that case. But when carrying it around, it drains faster than I've ever seen it drain by quite a lot. I'm assuming it's a rouge app that has some issue with the update. MyRadar may be the culprit according the battery monitor, as it often was on my Nexus 6P.
I've cleared both cache's several times and done several reboots to no effect.
I was right, it was MyRadar. I tried to optimize it, but it did not help. I finally uninstalled it and my battery life is at least as good as ever, and it's always been outstanding on this phone.
As a very outdoor oriented person, so I love the MyRadar app. But it's been a glitchy app for me for far too long. I'm using Radar Express now instead, and it is not impacting my battery drain so far.
