my keyboard battery drain so fast although i didnt dock it.

i have not had the time to do a proper test yet (wife and son hogging the tablet and dun have enough of tablet free time) but yes... from the general observation on my own TF... i have to say:
* the dock itself discharges battery quite fast (even when tablet is not docked)
* discharging is also fast when tablet is docked -- even if its on standby

observations made based on:
* charging both together and then undocking and leaving dock alone
* docked the tablet later on and using the dual battery widget to show the battery level

for the discharging when docked... could be apps i installed... but again, no time to do proper and more scientific testing.

i remember a few nights ago, my tablet went to 0% from about 60% battery in 24hrs even though it was supposedly on standby. i suspect its one of the apps... though not sure which.

hmm this is suspicious, few nights ago my tab went flat as well abnormally as well. The next day i plug in rebooted and checked the battery history , it seems that it was awake for quite a few hours for that night eventhough it was on standby/screen off. I suspected some google apps did something in the background.

i can't remember the exact date but i know it happened just the past week or so. i was quite surprised the next night i wanted to use it (entertain my son), i could not start it up. ended up having to let my son play car racing with the dock.

hmmm... this is weird... coincidence?

It the same as me since updating to 3.2... Somehow the track-pad become sensitive and turn the screen back and keep it that way until it over-heated and shutdown itself...
Disabling the trackpad manage to save the battery a lot...

Hey guys, I put my TF to charge and I don't see the "lightning" charging icon. So, I don't think it is charging. Tried using the adaptor charger and also the dock.

Anyone experiencing the same thing?


Added on August 17, 2011, 11:22 pmAnd how do I get rid of "Compass Interference" thing? Its so annoying! >.<

All these happen after I upgraded the firmware.

welcome to honeycomb keyboard lag issue.

and opera tends to enter a new line instead of submitting the comment.

u know what, i blame it on facebook for removing that 'post comments' button

try the new firefox mobile 6.0, i've got no time to try, not with my tablet now...

move your tablet in a pattery like the infinity symbol (like no 8 lying down)

just keep moving it in that manner until the compass is calibrated.

its pretty stupid if you ask me, esp. if people see you waving your tablet in the air like a madman...

its more of a honeycomb browser problem than keyboard... thats why both asus keyboard and android keyboard both lags.


Added on August 17, 2011, 11:45 pmhere is mozilla firefox 6.0 (supposed to be tablet optimized...)

its a new version, you can see just released 16th Aug 2011

https://market.android.com/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox

its popping up because your GPS is switched on, and it relies on the compass.

switch off the GPS if you are not using it.

otherwise, if you still need to use your GPS....

- move away from magnetic / electrical interference
- go to an empty room / outdoors
- keep moving the tablet in a figure 8 movement until the message does not pop up anymore
- good luck if you are staying near a power station / electricity distribution towers

maybe you didn't plug the connector all the way in.

anyway, charging in android is partially handled by the Android OS, thats why it needs to boot up and then charge when its flat.

so, expect some bugs when charging, esp. if your OS has some issues
