u can't... as i tried... no hibernation setting available... any one success please let me know...
i even tried to search online but still cannot...

I still have one last one left...
if you want let me know... SP also available... cheers...

Seems to be an issue with the 3740 series, cause even the Toshiba Encore reviews says that in connected standby mode it's dropping too rapidly.

For reference, my Dell venue Pro 8 lost 5% in almost 16 hours worth of standby.

but it only happens when docked to keyboard only. if not docked, the lost is minimal.

Well, then it could be the hard disk like others have suggested.

yes.. so its not an issue with the 3740 series then. although strangely it also happen to encore & acer w4 without dock.

well u can try this quick hibernate guide (tested myself):
1. enable hibernation by going to your desktop, run as admin command prompt, and type;
powercfg -h on
then, restart your pc.
2. confirm hiberfil.sys file exist on your c: drive. should be 1.5gb in size. goto my computer->c: , show protected file from folder options, then u can see the hidden file.
3. on the same command prompt, resize hiberfil.sys size to 60% to ensure successful resume from hibernation by typing;
powercfg -h -size 60%
4. confirm hiberfil.sys file size changed to 1.2gb.restart your pc again.
5. create hibernate shortcut, right click desktop, new, create shortcut. on location, type;
shutdown.exe /h
then press next. if u want to pin to start metro ui, just right click on the icon, choose pin to start.

Note, when u press the hibernate icon, screen will turn off quickly followed by camera white led turn on for a few seconds indicating system is hibernating. to turn your tab on again...press power button 2 times, 1st for 1-2 seconds followed by long 2nd press until screen turn on. that's it. this needs more tests which i dun have time...so if something bad happens...dun blame me if tab refuse to turn on...u can try connect your charger and press power button for 2 seconds...but i never encounter this before. gud luck.

Yup, only happen if docked with keyboard in standby mode...

Hi thanks... will try that in the weekend n see...

If it fails to turn on, first hold the power button for 10 seconds this is the hard off switch, let go, wait a few seconds, then try turning on as normal

guys...which outlet got stock?

yeah...maybe need to try other way as well...but i've found out if i let d tab hibernate for more than 5 minutes...i just need to press power button only once to resume...press until screen turns on, that's it. maybe when it started to hibernate, d tab needs more than 1 minute to properly hibernate, so need to give some time before resuming.

yup knows that... actually all those tips we must put in the 2nd post... under tips n trick section...


will try out n see

ok... after setting i hibernate the tablet with dock... now only wake up... about 30 mins... no power consumption at all...

that's gud to know...at least we have a temporary solution for the batt drain on sleep. the resize thing is needed coz a user in another forum have problem resuming from hibernate...so his solution is to resize the file size. U can try the default size 1.5gb and see if u have any problem resuming ur tablet.

Thanks Bro...

Maybe can try powercfg /sleepstudy in the admin elevated command prompt..It produces a report for battery drain during connected standby including graph, time, duration and main culprites too.

On my Lenovo Miix2, I can see that my battery drains fast when hooked up via usb to external hdd. Fortunately for the Miix2, the tablet can be charged & access the external hdd at the same time using usb hub.

For the case of T100, the hdd has a spinning motor that consumes lots more power than solid state drives. Its like my tablet hooked up to the ext hdd all the time when T100 is docked. Then its only normal that battery will drain much faster. Usually its more noticeable on smaller capacity battery in tablets compared to traditional laptops.

The only way to reduce battery consumption & still use the keyboard is to:
1. replace hdd in keyboard with ssd
2. replace hdd in keyboard with sata sdcard adapter + sdcard (slower than ssd but more economical for bigger storage capacity per buck)

Of cause there wont be any warranty left on keyboard after doing it.

hmmm i thought capacity is not the issue... is the current they pull so it finish faster coz the motor is more hunger for current to spin faster...

anyone here has upgraded to windows 8 pro? I need to do that soon as I need "XP Mode" and I was wondering whether we have to stick to 32 bit or can this machine support 64 bit like the Surface Pro?

not support 64bit win8 at this moment

so can install windows 8.1 pro 32 bit right?
