[Q] Usb 3.0 not recognizing Prime by Asus Sync - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hi all,
I am a total newb at android and anything here on the board. From what I can tell: nice work guys! Considering we are all newbs with the prime I also want to throw in my question and share with you my experience.
I am wondering if your TF 201 is recognised by USB 3.0? My Laptop Asus N73SV (Win7 64Bit) connects only by USB 2.0 through AsusSync.
Having received one of the first designated 64GB Primes and later my dearly anticipated European hillbilly keyboard I today think the inlay oft he tablet fell once or twice of the production-line. So I wonder if the usb3.0 issue might be related to that or is it more a general thing?
Since last Monday I am in contact with Asus Support and they advised me to send in the tablet because of the lousy WiFi/ Bluetooth and GPS reception. Having opened the flaps of the tablet to connect the dock yesterday I want to give the whole setup back! I could live with the strong fit of the two pieces (TF101 docked and undocked very smoothly but I exchanged because of a broken WiFi connection). There fell a tiny piece of plastic out of the right bottom hole and an even more tiny one dropped after shut-down vibrating today. I will insist on a replacement.
I still think the Prime suits me best out of all silent computer devices and I will just wait another month or so till I get a perfect one. Sad, though I doubt a little the approach of a single tasking OS on such a blazing tablet ??!!
Anyway, I wish you a rock-solid TF201s and hopefully soon a little bit of a more sophisticated OS than this one. Google got the market, now they should invest in their power costing OS. Why not buying into the MeeGo which Nokia abandonned. My son, an apple fanboy, was stunned by the silky sliding of the N9 screens. Or will MS put it’s WindowsPhone on the Eeepad? When will ubuntu work on tegra3 processor and touchscreen …….

USB 3.0
I have an ASUS N53SV and it connects fine to the USB3.0 port and the USB2.0 port without asus sync. I have an BC series TF201 64G and the PC runs WIndows 7 64 bit

Thanks, so does my N73. Have you actually tried to Asus Sync your N53SV via USB 3.0 with the Prime?
For me no luck. Could be the N73 though 'cause it also doesn't boot up when I have an external USB 3.O Harddrive connected to it. I usually forget after a week and while reboot I wonder why the dumb thing hangs

Tried it with asus sync and like you it doesn't connect when connected into the usb 3.0 but does work with the usb 2.0. I have a Thinkpad with USB 3.0 I will try it on that one to see if it is a ASUS pc issue.
Edit: The thinkpad doen't work with the asus sync at all not on the USB2.0 or the USB3.0, it connects fine as a drive, tried rebooting the pc,tablet and changing the cable to the TF101 but it doesn't work.

Thank you XXRAY, so why not try to figure this one out and let's go into details:
I assume your N53s setup is also: the hdmi1.x next to the usb3.0 next to another usb2.0.
2 questions:
- have you ever noticed a short interruption to your hdmi-device when you connect your external usb3.0-harddisk?
- Does your N53 boot up when the external usb3.0-harddisk is connected?
Well, if you are curious, you might try it, otherwise: No sweat man! Your News just comes in nicely with me 'cause I am going to send my N73 to ASUS anyway as long as it is still with guarantee. I am fed up with unplugging USB3.0 devices to start that N73 Beast (it handles litteraly anything I throw at it and the Prime together with SplashtopStreamer is the missing terminal I need).
Maybe just one last question: Do you know how to setup "Boot on Lan" on your N53?(I assume we have a similar bios ...).
I really appreciate your help and I hope you won't have hazzles with your TF201 as I do. I will try to get a replacement later on today.
Sent the notebook in and ASUS replaced the mainboard. Device boots now also if there is a USB3.0 harddisk plugged in. No further testing with the Prime though. It went for RMA as well and the outgoing of this is not clear yet. Case closed.

Anyone Seen any news as to when Asus Will sell OEM Accessories ?

When is Asus going to start selling OEM parts ? I need multiple sync cables etc.. I would personally tear mine apart and goto town with meter but with out a way to purchase a new one this seems like a dumb idea . I also am looking to make a cable that can attach to dock out, so that i can use it with transformer with out having it docked. Not that it maters but my reason for this is because i am making a custom install using the transformer as the head unit in my ford F-150, and i want to build a swing out keyboard out of center council (for when stationary or for passenger to use of course)
Any how my purpose of this is does anyone know any info on when replacement parts will be made available, or if they have released a pin out on the 40 pin anywhere so i might start building my own? I have tried reaching them on twitter but i have never received a response, on a side note has anyone got the transformer to show up and mount storage on a linux machine ?
I hate windows and so far other than adb push and pull, windows seems to be the only system that works with it
Frys in Arlington tx has the keyboards in stock and the charger brick and cables for forty bucks. They said they will have the USB cables that are six feet long soon too.
thanks ill have to give em a look

If you want to probe the cables, tearing apart a USB 3.0 extension cable and exposing the wires will allow you to tap into the Cable connection
Only thing i could probe was voltage and amperage with my multimeter
I really wish Asus used PDMI connectors
thanks dan but i already know the voltage etc ... thats not what i am looking for (usb 3.0) wont help me at all

Are you asking about being able to connect USB to the tablet? If so you need to wait for both the next version of honeycomb and the USB adapter from ASus

Data Transfer Fix.

A while ago someone posted a thread about the file transfer from the tablet to PC being extremely slow (I can attest.)
Anyhow in a brief moment of laziness and curiosity I grabbed my HTC Thunderbolt USB cable (knowing it would fit into the nook --same size) and plugged it up for file transfer. Needless to say now my transfer speeds for a microshdc^4 are around 3~4mbs+.
^Not sure if this will work for everyone but if you have a alternate cable available give it a try, because it is working great for me!
Sounds like they cheaped out and used a cable that only supports usb 1.1 then. Good to know; wish I had a compatible plug from another device for this.

You can find cords cheap on ebay. If I have an extra you can have it if you want.

Yep, will probably buy one there if I find that it bugs me a lot. Good to know
Can you charge NT through the Thunderbolt USB cable? (Through the wall socket of course, since the Nook Tablet doesn't charge via PC.)
I'm trying to cut down on my cable clutter. It is really irritating that generic USB cables (and my Nook Touch USB cable) won't work for charging NT - my table is just a mess of wires now.
I dont think it's the cable. I have 10 different cables, Gal S2, Nook Color, Acer A500 etc.. Only when I transfer to Nook Tablet do i have problem (example, 12 hours to move 2.3g files). To get around it i been using dropbox and syncing the files wireless and it's superfast. But Nook color is perfect and everything else.
I ever used differnt combinations of cables on another PC but still no luck. When i plug it in, it sees all 3 Nook Tablet connections but it's so freaking slow.
Not sure why no one else didnt notice this yet. It's a pain to do the wiifi transfers when i know the cable would take 1 minute. I dont really think the unit is defective. Im not sure what else to try..
(ps.. all the PC's im using is Windows 7 64b)
12 hours for 2.3 GB's? Jesus Christ - It took me like 10 minutes to Transfer 700 MB of Music onto my NT - Somethings wrong either with your comp, NT or cables and or memory card - I'd look into it
Yup, i had a folder of all my droid apps. But even if i move 5 apps, it takes 10 minutes. It's freaking crazy, but everything else on it is working so good.. Great battery life, 10+ easily.

I agree 12 hours for 2.3 GB is super crazy. Next time I move some data I'll take screen shots for comparison (nook cable / htc cable)

[Q] Manual Access--USB Mode

For some reason my touchpad no longer will go into USB Mode when I plug in the cable so I can not put the new alpha version onto my TP. Strange thing is the cable (which I just bought) charges it via USB, so I know it's not a connection problem. This symptom is the same for CM and WebOS, except in WeOS it gives the "may not charge" message.
Any way to manual mount the touchpad to transfer files onto it?
On a side note I did a little research and read on WebOS Nation Forums of a few people having this problem in landscape mode, but worked find in portrait mode, but mine sees no difference.
Like many people, you are having a USB power issue. Some cables just will NOT work for your Touchpad. I have only found one cable, other than the original that came with it, that has worked.
Also, if your USB port isn't putting out enough juice, or you have it plugged into a hub instead of an actual singular port, you'll run into problems.
PLus, sometimes a reboot of the computer can clear some of that up.

Thanks for the quick response. Appreciate the tutorials as well. I've heard of the power issues you've talked of but in the brief reading I did all those issues would not charge, or at least not show on the touchpad that it was charging. My Touchpad shows that it is charging, at least in CM it does....

I have one cable that will charge the Touchpad, but will not allow it to connect. It really sucks how much juice these things pull when they are talking to your computer via USB. Hell, I have to unplug my webcam before connecting my Touchpad to my laptop. Do you know how frustrating it is to be making a video, and then realizing that you have to stop recording to plug in your device? I scream about it every time. I also had to eliminate my USB hub. I always use the provided USB cable for anything Touchpad related. I have a car charger that barely trickles 2% over a period of an hour. I did notice that different computers give different results as well. My work computer (which is waaaayyyy better than my home one) handles the Touchpad like a champ. My Home Theater PC does pretty good with it after a reboot, but my laptop struggles EVERY time.

very strange. go figure...my original cable from the get go never made a solid connection i'd have to place the cable in a certain way to get it to stick, now that cable doesn't work at all. I found one around the house, worked totally fine on all aspects, lost it, bout a new one and it only charges. ugh...
tbtransfer w/ tbaccess works pretty good

The Tablet uses a microUSB 2.0 connection, all the specifications are listed here:
https://www.gsmarena.com/hp_touchpad-3839.php
Any microUSB 2.0 cable that provides data and charging will work, some from amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/Rankie-Micro-Charging-Braided-3-Pack/dp/B01JPDTZXK/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=micro+usb+2.0+data+cable&qid=1603461974&s=electronics&sr=1-3
It can easily be tested with any cable from an Android device that has a microUSB 2.0 connection.

P7500 (WiFi/3G) doesn't charge, instead goes into MTP mode when plugged in!

I don't know if anybody else has had this problem before, but I hope there is somebody out there who can help me with my problem.
Basically, until a few days ago, my Galaxy Tab 10.1 was working fine until I did a reinstall from a backup as I was having a problem with the device due to it running sluggishly slow and crashing every so often.
Now, for some weird reason, the device won't charge at all when the USB cable is plugged into the official USB AC Adaptor and instead all I get is the "MTP Initialization" message that somebody would usually get when connecting the Tab 10.1 to a PC or Laptop.
It seems to charge when hooked up to a laptop very slowly but that's about it.
If there's anybody out there who can help me fix this problem, it would be most appreciated at all (to be honest, I can't wait until I go back to university in September and I can sell this POS and buy a 64GB Transformer Pad Infinity instead!)
EDIT: I've tried another cable and now it's saying that it's MTP-Connected instead of not MTP-Connecting at all!
Bump as I have a feeling that this isn't a one-off problem and that it's affecting a lot of other Tab 10.1's as well...
Never had that issue.
Are you sure your cable is ok?
Having exactly the same problem, no idea how to fix it at all. Looks like it's faulty usb port, because sometimes my laptop 'recognize' the tablet, but it's very rare (don't really know what does it depend on). I'm afraid sending the tablet to service is the only solution .
Try a different charger, different cable and check the port for debris
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
I've checked the port and there's no debris in it, I've checked the new cable that I've bought and it's already worn through from the look of things at the end with the plug that connects to the device itself.

Defective mico-USB connector

Guys, I'm convinced the usb connector on my 9 month old TP is defective and gets worse each time I use it. I had bought a touchstone charger to ease the connector wear but still, I was eventually having problems with USB data connectivity using store bought cables. I even sent my TP in to fix the connector and when I got it back, still no USB connectivity. Just a completely wiped TP. So HP sent me one of their "genuine" silver dot cables and low and behold it worked fine. (My original cable was lost)
Now, months later, I'm having problems with the USB data connection again. I either get the "Not enough current message" in WebOS or no MTP USB symbol in CM9. Sometimes the PC will chime positively but with an error message (can't detect device). I received another genuine HP cable and it behaves the same as the other one. Inserting them normally, they appear to be in tight, the PC will chime but Windows will say that there's a problem, can't detect device. The only way to get it to work is to insert the microusb side at a 45 degree angle tilted downward and hold it in for 5 seconds, then (ever so slowly) release the pressure to the connector. 50% of the time I'll get a Windows message that says the USB is degraded and run slower than normal (which I think means it thinks its in USB1.1 slow xfer mode) and 50% it works fine at USB 2.0 (until I pull the cable out of the connector). I also have 2 store bought cables that won't ever successfully connect to USB with the TP but work fine with my Samsung cell in both charging and xferring music over to the phone.
So what I'm getting at here is that no standard microusb cable is the same and that there must be something special about the HP genuine one. Do these cables have a resistor on pin 4 ID tied to GND pin 5? Even so, I think what is wearing the most is pins 1 & 2 and maybe 3 (VCC and the data pins) which is why it may only work by concentrating on seating those pins first. Does it make sense that the 'can't detect device' message comes up with just the data lines and ground connected but no VCC? For that matter, why would the battery symbol in CM9 always show the lightning bolt assuming pin 1 VCC is not connected?
I'd appreciate any responses from other members here since I believe without USB the TP could be bricked in case some boot code gets corrupt and you are forced into WebOS recovery mode. This has never happened to me yet and I've installed a lot of nightlies but it COULD happen, no guarantees. What is inevitable is my connector will eventually wear out and my TP will only live until the bootloader DOES get corrupt, hopefully later than sooner. This could be the case with all TP's. Just imagine if in a couple of years everyone's TP's USB port goes bad. Sounds like the devs should figure out a way to fix a bricked TP wirelessly, if that's at all possible.
Thanks,

One of my Touchpad's had the same problem in Webos it said using wrong charger may not charge or something similar and with Android ie nightly the charging signal came up but it did not charge.
I spoke to HP and pointed out that I have 2 Tablets and that swapping leads or chargers made no difference all combinations worked on one but not the other.
They agreed to fix it and replaced the part. It is now working fine. And as with yours my computer failed to recognize the tablet properly.19 times out of 20 on the one time it did I was able to back up and remove Android before HP picked it up.
I would send it back under warranty or if that has expired state that it was preexisting. Otherwise as you said it is going to become pretty much unusable.
Don't let them fob you off.
Good luck

if u bought it during the fire sale u have about a week till (8/20) the one year warranty expires.

go to palm support and CHAT with them. do not call cuz that cost money.
once u get an RMA they will send a box and take care of Shipping.
then go here to wipe and remove android

once wiped send it in and your speaker will be fixed, it will take about a week.

Thanx for your prompt responses. I bought my TP at the 2nd fire sale through BB in early Nov so I still got a few more months but I would rather wait a bit more since they did nothing the 1st time around. I think the connector is on some daughter board along with the vibrate device which is soldered to the main board. Doesn't sound like a big deal to repair it. Still, what makes the HP cable different then the others? Are there known cables I can get online that might be made better to always work and make better contact than the HP ones?

Thanks for your advice. Did they fix everything that was intended? Was turn around time no longer than 2 weeks for each repair? When was your last repair (busted speaker) done? Is your serial number the same or did you ever get a replacement (meaning a refurbished one) back?

i keep track of the serials and they always came back the same. i have more than one pad and i asked for one to be replaced completely. we will see if that happens. but they fix only what u ask for and nothing else.
it can take longer depending on Weekends. takes 2 days to get your box, then 2 days to get it to HP, then 3- 4 days to get your fixed unit. its all done thru UPS, cant send it out on the weekends or receive it

Hi all. I know this thread is really old, but I'm finding myself dealing with similar issues. And I'm obviously out of warranty. I can't get windows, linux, or Toolbox to pick up the USB. I'm actually in a worse case scenario mention here and am stuck in meboot, TWRP, and WebOS recovery, because I had wiped the rom. It must be an issue with the USB port, I've lost track of my original Hp touchpad OEM cable, and have tried every USB cable I can find. Any help would be appreciated.
