So I have had my TF700T for a couple of weeks now. I've been mainly using just the tablet and used the dock just a few times. A few days ago I had fully charged the dock and put it away. Tonight I decided to do some emails using the dock only the battery was at zero. The dock still works, presumably drawing it's power from the tablet.
Question is, why would the dock battery fully discharge in just a couple of days?
Thanks.

How is it for you owners on tethering when your out and about ? Is it annoying you have to turn on your wifi on the mobile and then turn it off again ? Is there a big drain on battery life on your mobiles ?
I am about to buy the asus but concerned with the hassel of using it outside with no 3g built in and relying on my Nesux One.
Also does the USB port on the keyboard dockcharge other plugged in device ?
Sorry if any of this has been asked before.
Tethering my TF was actually really annoying until I started using an app called AutoTether, which lets me turn the access point on my N1 on and off from the tablet. It's kind of like a remote control for tethring, and it really makes things much easier. Still kills my phone's battery life, but not as much as if I had the hotspot on all the time.
Seams great on my Galaxy sii, but only tested it at home for 30 min. Will be testing for longer and away from home soon.
Well I took the plunge and purchased the transformer last week from Comet online, very impressed, however the unit had a dead pxiel right in the middle of the screen so I am awaiting for an exchange but now I have just read the 3g is coming out in August so the question is should I now return and order the 3g version ? Or really it makes no difference if you tether.
Normally I always bring usb cable and while tethering I connect the usb cable so that the TF&dock will charge my phone.

Which is one massive reason for getting the dock as an extra charger on the move

I'm not sure if this was posted before, but I noticed the 0213 keyboard firmware makes the keyboard stop charging the tablet after its battery hits 3%.

Pretty sure mine did that from the start (had it since June).
Mines been that way for awhile now as well

It never did that for me before with 0209 so thats why I thought I'd post it.
Love love love the new update, but I didn't find anybody talking about not have the battery usage data in the settings-battery section. Mine just keeps saying not available. Anybody else seeing that or is it just me?

Yup same here. I updated early yesterday morning.
My speculation is that ICS uses a different algorithm for calculating battery usage, and it may require more data points... So maybe we are simply not using it long enough.

No, Asus just didn't (yet?) implemented it. It was the same with HoneyComb, battery usage was added very late in the process while Xoom users had it from the beginning. It probably requires a lot of work to get ported or sth.
Are you using the dock?
+1 same probleme, and for me the dock won't charge, but when I plug AC in dock it charge the TF101..? You think it's wrong upgrade or battery breack?

Are you sure the dock isn't charging?
Because there is no dock batt indicator in the ICS update, I check my dock batt level with Dual Battery Widget.
You can try to reflash the update and do a full wipe.
The dock firmware wasn't updated and i guess it's the source of many problems, including the battery status not being available.
Me too and no dock here.
Yep.
It's the same as early honeycomb. Let's play the waiting game
Thanks for the replies guys, helps to know I'm not just doing something wrong.

Yea also here but I don't mind every where I go if have a charger with me so I dont bother but still it's better then have a half working version of ICS then a version thats a little limeted without bugs
I was wondering if anyone else is having issues with there keyboard not charging or access to usb storage? I believe the issue started with the update to 1/04 (4.2.1). If I'm it somewhere in forums, please guide me to proper place.

Anyone? I'm hoping I'm not the only one with this issue. I have full function of the keyboard except like I mentioned above. Could it be a hardware issue? Whenever I plug the charger in, the light comes on the dockstation, however it's not supplying power to the tablet. My battery isn't holding the same charge, it's draining as if its not connected to dockstation at all.

you should have read the cm10.1 nightlies thread ....... its already stated that some dock functions has not yet been implemented yet.
Thanks for the reply. I understand that some of the functions aren't implemented, but I haven't read where the dock wasn't showing up at all or wasn't providing a charge.

mine does which i think is strange. I was just curious.
Thanks,
Actually it does not.
I thought every Android device wakes up when connecting the charger. All smartphones I got my hands on did. Though this can be disabled
Not it does not turn on. You may wanna check in settings if there's something to enable/disable it (don't know whether you're using a custom rom or not)
Every Android device does unless you modify the Android. Policy. Jar. I think that's the one. However my galaxy S3 doesn't turn on running Cm10.1

Well I guess since I cant unlock the damn thing ill have a hard time changing that file. My phone doesn't do it but ive had a custom rom on it for so long i dont recall if the phone turned on when i plugged if in prior to rooting it. However, i dont have a custom ROM on the TF300T nor do i see a power setting so i guess id have to edit the file somehow. Seems silly to me since I'd like to keep it shut off to charge faster but as soon as i plug it in on she powers up from being completely off. Annoying.
Yes, mine does.

AW: Does your TF300T turn on when you plug in the charger?
Well mine did few seconds after I unplugged again. Guess it was some sort of delay

Same here. Kind of makes sense to me.
Still Charged Up
Yep, same here. This is the only Android device I've had that boots up fully when connecting a charger.

That's an easy hack,
You can also disable the screen on when plugged in via a .jar hack.

Care to share the hack on how to disable the screen coming on when plunging in the charger? It would be appreciated. Thx

I've only had this issue on the odd occasion, but just the other day I left it off and plugged in, went to work and it was still off when I got back.

Mine on latest 4.2.1 does!
Strange, mine did at first. But after bricking, and recovering from the brick, it no longer does. I found that out today when I plugged it in after it died. I still had to turn it on after I returned back to it an hour later.
