hi all, new tf user reporting in.. just bought tf with keyboard dock at lowyat. now im charging it..

just a quick question to those with dock, does the battery indicator at left side of dock blinking/light when charging.. i check mine not even blinking. sorry if this question ady being asked.. just need quick answer so that i can quickly swap it if the dock is faulty..
*
It seems that I have the same problem, I just got my TF today with the KD. But I notice it didnt really show at the battery indicator that it is charging, the battery dont have thunderbolt sign. :S

Anyway, I try to charge if it works.

When I get my TF connected to network, it automatically download the 3.1 and the KB dock update also. Not sure if this is the bug or I have a faulty cable or charger... sucks!


Also, I can go to market with no problem. But cant download flash 10.3... it says this country cant download.. any idea anyone? Try to follow the steps suggested in 1st page... it didnt work too.

I have read the manual, then only i know there is battery indicator there.. i came here because this might be known issue or got settings that need to set since i barely got enough battery to play around with the setting.. so sorry if i waste your time bro.. u could ignore my question though..

did you manage to charge now?

finally i put my tf on sale.. huhu.. i love it, but i dont think i will use it as much as i want to.. esp when the apps are the same with the apps on my sgs2 ..

I was planning to get an SGS2, but then... I already using an Android phone. So if I need to do more stuff, I rather get something bigger. So I ve decided to get the transformer.

After having my tablet for just 2 days, The desire to own a better faster phone has reduced. I mean, I bought Incredible S for my wife, I bought Ipod Touch 4 for my son, the main thing in those phones are apps & games. Now I have something larger that I could enjoy too. My current X10mini will act as a phone nevertheless.

I shared this in another thread, but is good to share it here too as it is really more to the Asus TF.

When I got my TF, I also bought a netbook case. I was in a shop trying to get a screen protector and the guy asked me what is the size, I said is for my Asus 10,1". He said.. can I see? So I open up and showed him. Then he said, this is not a tablet, this is a notebook. Then I undock the tablet and he was like sooooooo surprise and malu abit and said... wah like that also can ah?

Is really funny to see the reaction of people. I was in McD and another German restuarant and quite a number of them looking at the product especially when I remove the tablet and play games. It really do transformed... ha ha ha

So, I guess not many people know about this tablet yet. The Padphone would be another COOL product in the near future.

ya, i expect this to make ppl's jaw drop and eyes pop out... imagine opening like notebook... type... then after that, undock and become tablet.

padfon... ya... interesting. in fact, last year, i was telling a fren how manufacturers should come up with that -- a one-up from motorola atrix since ppl are now going tablet. would be even better if the TF101 dock works on the padfon.

well, we'll have shahz comment once he gets an engineering unit... he mentioned probably year end or sth...
*
I read and watch the review by Anantech. It seems that they have people who are very closed to NVidia. I heard about the device before even Asus shows it.

Another interesting feature but very well thought off is, when you dock the tablet in the docking without it connected to any power outlet, the dock will charge the tablet like transfering the power to the tablet. It reminds me of jetfire transfer power to Optimus prime.. ha ha ha ha

So now, the tablet has all the power and you can still undock not to worry where the battery is. ..... soo cool idea.

just curious as to why 3g model is still sought-after or selling... after all, most would already have smartphone that can double as router. otherwise, there's bound to be some wifi connection -- at home, cafe, office, etc...

plus, 3g version means having another sim card -- meaning extra $$$?

just wondering... or maybe its something i missed out?

yeah, I think the padphone is the answer, but not everyone likes Asus/garmin phone. So... the transformer is an alternative where we could tether.

speaking of charging... read in XFA forum and they advice:
* charge dock and tablet separately (not sure if dock will have separate charger)
* dun charge tablet overnight

wondering if there's truth/ reason in the above especially abt charging dock and tablet together. i was planning to charge both together. then again, dunno how convenient, etc yet since still dun have the dock.
*
I charge them together. Advice given to charger more than 8 hours for the 1st time. Thats what I did.

ya, but from what i read in the xda forum, they said there's been reported cases on charger not working after that.

check:

Not sure if this is related, but when I updated the tablet to 3.1 and once I dock it, it detected that the dock also need to be updated. So I hope this issue was resolved with the recent 3.1 update.

The 8 hours charge recomended by Asus, I think I saw that in the manual too. Hmmm

My story more funny. Last week I went to this shop and asking for screen protector 10' for my transformer. The guy said he want to see first and when I showed him, he said Asus don't produce tablet anymore. This is the old one so no more stock for screen protector. I was like rclxub.gif This guy really like katak bawah kotak shakehead.gif
Yesterday I'm going back to the shop and saw they also have asus transformer. Maybe he don't remember me and try to promote me to buy transformer. I feel like to smack him  bruce.gif

guys, I've tested a mkv movie with DTS 5.1 and 2.1. The built in player, can only play the video but no audio. I also tested Moboplayer same problem. Rockplayer can play the audio if only I choose to play with software decode rather than hardware which provide rubbish video.

So far, QQplayer can play the audio using it software decode but video still lag.

Anyone have solution for this? Hope to see improvement in built in audio codec...

The company is said to introduce second generation of the tablet in the fourth quarter to capitalize on the Christmas shopping season. Shih said next-generation Transformer will come in a slimmer design.
