First my phone won't charge when plugged into an outlet, but it will charge when connected to my computer. Any ideas?
second i am running pocketcm and when i open my keyboard to type a text the keyboard on the screen automatically opens and takes up the majority of the screen, any way to disable it preferably only when keyboard is open.
thanks in advance
does'nt sound like a software problem to me, you might have a devective home charger.

As far as the PocketCM goes...I had similar problems with on older versoin I was using. I found a updated version and the problem went away. Here is the CAB I'm using...

After upgrade to XXKG2 firmware 2 days ago, the voice command launches randomly. Exactly like you press twice the home button. So, I been suspicious about home button or accidental push. But this occurs also on the table, without anything near to it. But I got more worried about this, when this issue comes, sometimes the battery icon show up the charging icon
Also detected randomly "wake ups", with the screen dimmed... without any touch
Yes, I could freeze or remove the car dock app or the voice command app, but this will not fix the source.
Anyone having similar issue or figure out some fix?
EDITED: Problem fixed ... my results here, in other thread:

My dock (I'm from the UK so dock and tablet come together as one package) only seems to fully work about 25% of the time. Most of the time when I connect it I don't get a mouse pointer and I can't use it to type :-( The tablet recognises the dock being connected as in the notification area it says "You can now use the keyboard to type" and the tablet charges from the dock. However, only the top row of the keys do anything - so I can lock it, mute the sound, turn off wifi etc fine, but none of the other keys work. The other 25% of the time when I connect it the mouse pointer instantly appears and I can type fine. The bar always goes to the lock position, so I'm assuming I am connecting it correctly.
Apart from this the tablet works fine - no dust or dead pixels, good wifi, minimal light bleed, so I'd rather not return it and get another one with other issues. maybe a loose connection on the dock?
Anyone else with the same issue, or who can help?
I had some problems with the dock functioning, but it seems to have gone away after plugging/unplugging a few times. Now it seems fine.
I am also from the UK and have the same problem I have tried to remove the dock a few times and sometimes it works. It never worked first time. The table is perfect with Bluetooth and GPS working. My main problem is that it takes ages to boot up compared to my 101, about 4 times as long. I will wait a couple of weeks see if an update sorted it then return the thing back to Comet.
No problems here. Did you guys get the firmware update? I am using MobileDock version TF201-DOCK-0206, that got pushed to me the first time I docked my TFP.

Yes I have the same version TF201-DOCK-0206 thanks for the reply
I'm from Austria, but got the package with tab and dock too, i think thats regular in EU. I have no problems with my dock. Maybe you've pressed the "disable mousepointer" button? it's next to the bluetooth button on the dock

Thanks, Hadn't noticed that button. If the dock isn't working (which is about 75% of the time) and you press that button to disable the mouse pointer and then press it again to reenable it, the mouse pointer will work for a short time, but the keyboard still won't work in this scenario. If you leave the mouse pointer to disappear you can't get it back again until you press that button twice again.
So its still not working properly but there can't be much wrong with it if you can press a button to get the pointer on again. Maybe it will be fixed by the ics update on thursday?
Mine has a little issue where after not using it all night the dock will not funtion. There is no mouse pointer at all. Once I pull it off the dock and put it back on it works just fine the rest of the day. Anyone else have this issue?
Got it working again by rebooting and then re-docking a couple of times (typing from it now). Been working for 30 mins - scared to leave to go into sleep mode in case it fails again ;-)
Closing and opening the hinge seems to help, but probably best wait for todays update before worrying too much!
Got this from ASUS support today;
Could you please await the firmware update that is due to be released this comming thursday?
If the firmware update has failed, please back up all your data and try the recovery back to factory settings as per instructions below:
1. Press and hold the power button and choose <Ok> to shut down.
2. Remove any SD cards from the Eee Pad.
3. Press and hold the <Volume Down> button, then press and hold the <Power> button. Keep pressing them both until you see white writing on the screen. You may then release them.
4. Wait five seconds until you see an icon in the middle of the screen labeled "Data Wipe".
5. Use the <Volume down> button to highlight "Data Wipe"
4. Press the <Volume up> button to execute the process.
6. After the "Wipe Data" process finished, it will automatically reboot and start normally.
Didn't do a wipe, but I'm still seeing this occasionally after updating to ICS 9.4.2.7. Open/Close seems to persuade it to work.
Select Asus keyboard as input and the keyboard will work. EOT
Changing the keyboard setting doesn't always work. Sometimes the special/shifted keys get mapped wrong too. It's all related, but some point in the process seems unreliable.
Mine does the same thing. I have to reboot the tablet while off the dock and then plug it in at times for it to work.
Same here. Bought from PC World in UK.
Is this a software issue? If not, I'll get it swapped.
I have the same problem with the dock, i tried everything. Hardreset , factory reset, reboots with and without dock on prime but nothing changed at all, the dock is working about 10% of the time and that is completely random.
There doesnt't seem to be a loose contact between dock and prime, because I tried to move around the dock and the prime in every direction while they were connected and the keyboard was working at that time without problems and without losing connection or an error message.
As soon as I'm working with the dock for a few minutes or when the Prime (while connected to the dock) is turned back on from sleep mode, either the dock's keyboard or the touchpad or sometimes both stop working.
I'm using the DE version of Android 3.2.1 as firmware,

Nope! ASUS keyboard is already selected - I've tried every combination of keyboard it makes no difference to the functionality of the dock. full keyboard only works 10% of the time, mouse pointer only works about 25% of the time, the top row of keys works 75% of the time, and dock charges the tablet 75% of the time.
On the odd occasion when all the keys do work, they only work for up to 30mins or so, or until it sleeps :-(
A user on transformerprimeforums.com as tried a different a second tablet with his dock - and it worked fine. Which assumes his tablet is the issue? Which is a bit weird as I would have assumed an issue with the dock. Anyway, mine is going back (both tablet and dock as it's one package in the UK) and I'm going to try a second one. Any issues with the second one and I'll give up and get a refund :-(
Problem persists for me on TF201-DOCK-0206 .
Although sometimes irratic and difficult to replicate, I've found a way that normally works.
When booted undocked, then docked after lock screen displayed, MobileDock works.
When booted docked, MobileDock still charges, but isn't fully functional.
I've installed all firmware updates so far. No change.
I also have the same problems with my TF201-DOCK-0206 as mentioned in this thread. Was hoping for the last update to solve it, but it didn't.
What I found out is when the keyboard works, keep the Caps Lock light burning if you don't use the keyboard.
I'm not sure if it is a soft or hard issue, but I don't think it has something to do with bad connections/connectors. More like a component goes into sleep mode and won't wake up the normal way.
The issue is pretty simple, if I pull my Evo 3D from the dock sometimes it goes to the buttons lit and a black screen...will stay that way until I pull the battery. It never seems to happen if I close out dock mode before pulling it from the dock...only the desktop dock too btw, it's a Seidio. Phone is completely stock and updated. Thoughts?
While on the dock the buttons are always lit (if kept in dock mode)...that supposed to be?
Also should note, sometimes when it doesn't crash doing this, the middle portion of the touchscreen will not respond to certain things until I reboot, obviously clicking reboot works, but it's very odd, Swiftkey doesn't allow me to type on the virtual KB towards the center, etc.
Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me solve my problem. The issue is that when I plug my M HL cable into my HDTV the image comes out sideways, flickers, and looks terrible with lots of snow. The interesting thing is that this didn't happen to me on a stock rom. But now I'm running CM 10 dgungdum style and the problem has occurred. A couple of details: it doesn't say HDMI at the top when I plug it in ( Though it used to When it worked before) Also it seems to be something to do with CM 10 itself because if I reboot the phone with the MHL cable plugged in it starts with the normal display and the CM logo is not sideways but once the operating system starts the lock screen appears and immediately flips sideways on my phone and also on my TV. So I think the ROM has some kind of setting that auto flips the display when the MHL is plugged in but the problem is that I can't find an option to reverse this default. Any help is greatly appreciated.

HDMI is out on cm10 ROMs. That's why you are getting those weird screen displays.
Upgraded to CM11, but had this on 10.2 as well. Back and home buttons are rendered inoperable depending on how NT is positioned (rotated). Really annoying and I know they aren't shorted because BACK works in one position but not the other, same issue with HOME. Anyone know of a fix?
Anybody?
you're talking about the onscreen buttons in android, right? i've never had any issues
that happen to me
I had that same problem when I change the dpi from 160 to 265 and that when it happen to me. It took me a day or two before I realized what causes It but when I change the dpi back to 160 my buttons started to work just as they did before.I hope this helps you with your fix.good luck
Well I don't know if it's your case, but this happened to me as well, and I found that I had dead zones in touchscreen exactly where on screen home and back buttons are, the only way I could use home and back buttons again was rotating the screen to upside down portrait (I could not pull down controls menu in this position since that part of screen was dead) or in landscape.
How I found out: download this app. from Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rn.yamtt, turn your tablet to landscape so on screen buttons will change positions. Open the app. and select paint tester and move your finger on the part of the screen where the on screen buttons wasn't working in portrait mode.
If you have dead zones like me, the app. won't paint the area where you are moving your finger because the touchscreen is dead in that area.
Also, my nook developed another problem after this, it won't charge, and when I plug the power cord, tablet crashes and reboots and stay in a bootloop unless I remove the cable. I'm 100% sure the cable and charger are ok, my nook suddenly started to show a lot of problems, I'll miss my nook =/
so what did you do to fix it?

Nothing since this has no fixes, part of the touchscreen is simply dead, unless a miracle happens, I even tried to restore stock nook rom, opened my tablet to check if there is a loose cable or something.
Is this happened to you in the same day you opened this thread? If your answer is yes, this sounds funny, because it's exactly the day when this small part on left bottom of the touchscreen died in my nook.
Also, somewhat my tablet started to charge again, but very slow, like USB charging, but I'm happy my nook returned to life.
No this happened many weeks before the thread. All of a sudden both home and back touches no longer worked in portrait position, but DO work in Landscape. Annoying.

Did you made the check I mentioned before? Does the back and home buttons works if put your tablet in upside down position so portrait mode will move soft buttons to the top edge?
Yes - all three DO work when I flip it upside down in portrait. Is this my workaround?

Unfortunately, you have the same problem as me - dead zone in touchscreen. Flip the tablet upside down in portrait or use in landscape are the only workaround afaik. I thought in moving the on screen buttons more to the right in a zone where the touchscreen is working, but I didn't find a way to do this, I managed to move them a little bit by adding more buttons in the bar in system settings, but the back button would still stay in the dead zone, them I switched home and back buttons positions (so home stays in the dead zone) since you can still use the tablet N button to use home function.
