First of all, you need to download and install Kies to have the latest drivers for your phone. (You can get kies from Samsung's official webpage) Then download Odin. The latest version is 1.83 afaik. Then you need to download a proper firmware for your phone, which you can do at sammobile.com under the firmwares tab. (you need to register to be able to download, it takes half a minute). After that, extract the firmware using winrar or something like that. You should have a few files which you have to put in Odin, you can find many guides for that on how to do it and what options to tick. You have to put your device into download mode - first switch off (pull the sim card and external sd, as it might cause some errors while flashing), then hold the home-volume down-power keys for a few seconds. You will enter download mode. Before plugging in your phone to your computer, make sure no part of kies is running on your pc (use task manager). Some drivers might install. After that, Odin should "see" your device, a yellow box will appear with the port used. If all the files are at the right place, start flashing (make sure your device has at least 70 percent battery). Only unplug your phone after it has fully booted. Done!

Now you only need to apply a custom kernel. I recommend Semaphore. Search for it on the forums. Switch off your phone again and put it into download mode. Reset Odin. Put the downloaded semaphore kernel into the pda box. Plug in your phone. Flash. Done!

Please hit thanks if I helped ;)

Hi,

Whenever I go into the Market place it says

"Authentication is required. You need to sign into your Google account"

I dont know why its doing this now but I cant fix it. I've tried rebooting the phone, clearing the data for Market, closing the app - nothing works. Next step is to reinstall a backup, which I dont want to do just yet if someone knows how to fix it!!

FACEPALM

I soooo resisted to write a word in this thread because in general I am sick of you moaning like a woman. But here it goes..

DATE: 15 NOV 2011 - of the article.

The Microsoft sales - DONT MEAN WINDOWS PHONE sales. Microsoft does 40,000 other things than Windows Phone. Windows Phone is new venture. Hope you are literate enough to know this.

Thus, showing me something 2 months old, means crap to me.

After that Nokia has launched Nokia Lumia 800 and 710 in India and USA and probably Hong Kong - not sure. Those are markets with huge numbers. Not UK! So wait and give me figure after 2 months.

I think we've gotta start a bounty thread to get you an Android phone. That's going to be well worth it that teaching you facts about Marketing, Sales and Corporate policies.

Tip: Microsoft isn't owned by one man.

[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
Those projections are certainly possible, but you have to bear in mind that they are based on what is known today. For example, no projections that were made two years ago gave Microsoft any hope of being more than a blip on the radar in the mobile space, because WP7 hadn't been unveiled yet. Similarly, no analysts making projections today can know what Apple or Google may or may not accomplish within the next 3 years.

So, while these projections should make people optimistic for the future of the OS, that optimism should be realistically cautious (as should any optimism for any of the major players - a lot can happen in three years).
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
LOL, while it might be from November 2011 (a few months ago) but the projections are still the same and won't get any better, well at least anytime soon; maybe like Microsoft it's self-predicted in 2015 or maybe even 2018 but as of now there is no way. I'm pretty sure that if you were too look up todays stats they would be no different at all. Don't get me wrong I'm with you guys in the sense that I would like to see MS succeed but they just don't get it. I have a WP and I honestly can say I do not know one other person who has one at all.

Guys as I have stated before, this is not to feed trolls or single out one person for their opinions, MS needs to listen to both sides, positive and negative. So don't take my personal comments to personal. With that being said let's see what this year will bring, hopefully I'm wrong but as a WP user I have the right to voice my opinion and will continue to do so until either MS gets it or the go bust whichever one comes first. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
Thanks for posting, I took a look at those charts and they look like they are predicting the future; I wonder how they do that? Do they have some kind of crystal ball over a MS or something? How do they figure that they will even sale these may phones in the future? Maybe they are listening and changing stuff around, boy I really hope so.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
My moaning is not directed towards you so that means I wasn't talking to you in perticular. My grips are with MS and I am just pointing out somethings is all and if you don't like it too bad simply ignore my coments, it's not that hard to do. I don't go around directing anger towards you when you make your coments or voice you opinons even if they are stupid or not because you have the right to just like I do. Again if you don't like it, ignore it; I know I would.

@sinister1

From your posts I see you as a big Windows Mobile fan. I understand if others think you're trolling on WP7 forums as 90% of your posts are pure negativity on WP7. I googled Windows Mobile for reviews and almost all of them were negative. WM was dissected and lambasted and all reviewers agreed on one thing - WM sucks.

Fast forward to WP7: it won three awards with mostly positive reviews from all major and reputable tech sites.

I understand your right to voice your opinions but stop preaching your hack and slash doctrine on what OS everybody should have...
[Windows Phone 7 General] gentry33:
So then maybe you should direct your venting where it might do the most good, a Microsoft support site for WP7. Most posters here either have something to contribute or are in discovery of various aspects of WP7 os. Pissing and moaning just doesn't play well in a forum dedicated to development. If you so need a phone that meets your every whim perhaps you should build it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sinister1:
You hardcore fanboys are just too much, it's funny how you get all pissy and mad when someone comes on here and tells the truth about a divce that for some reason you seem to worship, but you do make a vaild point I will search for MS websites and direct my whims and trolls towards them.

Does leaking oil count? (I have BMW car and bike so i'm allowed comment :P)

BTW my bike doesn't leak oil... my local BMW garage just said it did to try and get loads of money out of me... but that's a discussion for a different forum...
[Windows Phone 7 General] drupad2drupad:
haha don't be funny man. I am serious. I hate these BMW so much. I had so much freedom travelling on top of the bullocks. Free air, I could decorate it as I wanted, I could change the wheels, I could colour the horns, I could paint the cart, now in this BMW I just have to use what the company gave me. And now you are telling me there will be oil leaking? I want **** dropping. I don't want oil. BMW did a horrible mistake by making a car. I don't care if it took me 20 hours to reach work daily, but at least I was able to decorate my bullock cart! Now I have comfy seats and air conditioning. But I can't change the colour of my car - how rubbish!!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Boburto:
You should get a motorcycle! Feel the wind in your hair! And the only smell will be exhaust fumes, not bullock farts!

Although i agree the bullock was better in ways. The blue-tooth implementation was much better... up until it fell out. Poor animal.
[Windows Phone 7 General] drupad2drupad:
hahah! Like the blue-tooth one. ;)

But I don't want motorcycle. It's expensive, and it's too limited and I can't have more than 2 ppl riding it. It's so closed sort of. I can hardly do much with it. I think BMW is a copy-cat of that motorcycle, just with two extra wheels and more closed space. I might just jump the ships and buy a bullock cart.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsissons:
I recently diagnosed my TFDOCK with the early battery syndrome. I sent the dock into asus service for my RMA and they returned it with the updated chipset (or so it would seem). I did the battery test again to verify (turn off TF101 while docked, press KB key to turn on) and my TF101 did not turn on as i hoped. This confirms that the RMA was successful and the chipset updated.

Right away i wanted to see if the battery drain issue was resolved. So i charged it up to 100/100, closed the lid (which puts it to sleep) and let it sit overnight. This morning the tablet was at 100, and the dock was at 71. I understand that in standby there must be some drain, but i was expecting something like 0.25% per hour (or something in that range). this was closer to 3% per hour which is quite a bit.

I have read from other threads that this even happens when you turn off the TF101 (full power down). so naturally, now i am concerned that this was not really a battery drain fix at all, just one small part of the fix. I would really rather not have to disconnect the tablet from the dock every time i plan to not use it for a few hours.

So my questions are this then. what are the expected rates of battery drain in different scenarios: standby/off docked/undocked? Does it make a difference if i press the power button for standby vs. just closing the lid? Should i set the wifi disconnect policy to screen off rather than never while plugged in (does docked equate to plugged in)? Is it possible that the prime rom (2.1.1) has some effect on the battery drains. I have the latest dock firmware (EP101-0213) but is it possible that i need to reflash the tablet fw or dock fw (somehow) in order for the updated chipset to be recognized and utilized properly?

NOTE: i waded through a number of battery drain threads and didn't see any answers to these questions. there are a lot of posts though so it's easy for me to have missed one that has the right info. If this is the case please link the thread/post. There are a number of posts that have empirical battery drain data, but none that i have read suggest what is expected (or if one can even expect a standard rate of drain).

Thanks.

SOLVED: my issue related to having the 'always stay on while plugged in' option checked in the development section (and also possibly the wifi disconnect policy to never while plugged in). I have turned both of these off and also installed the auto airplane mode app. Now my batteries barely discharge at all when shut off (and in deep sleep mode). The theory is that the TF101 thinks it's plugged in when you are connected to the TFDOCK, even though there is no actual wall power source. This resulted in the TF101 never going into deep sleep and therefore draining the battery the whole time you think it's doing nothing. I'm not sure how to mark this thread solved, so mods go ahead.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seakins:
+1 to your questions

My dock does the same thing but even with turning off the tablet while docked over night the dock looses battery.

I'm running revolver.

FYI: I don't have the dock battery drain fault.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougstoner:
Yeah, I was curious about this as well. My dock doesn't lose that much, but it does seem like it's losing a good bit. Mine tends to drop about 15% every 12 hours. I haven't tried turning the pad off and see what the results are. I do have auto airplane mode setup, and the setting to turn off auto wake.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilx:
I'm having drain problems with my dock. If I turn off with the keyboard attached and then press a key, the transformer wakes up. So does this mine has the problem and needs the update?

1)Who do I contact to get the mod done , I'm in the UK

2) Can I just send the dock?

3) How long does it take

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChaoticWeaponry:
I did the same test a while back, and I cannot recall what ROM I was using, but after the overnight test, my dock was at 95 percent. Maybe your CPU doesn't deep sleep? Try getting CPUSPY off of the market and see what happens..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsissons:
@wilx I sent mine in to a canadian asus service shop and they had it back to me in about a week. I just sent the dock, they didn't want the tablet. Not sure who you need to contact, but start by calling your most reasonable asus tech support and they will probably set up an RMA over the phone. I did it all via email, but started here: support.asus.com
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsissons:
Thanks for the CPUSPY idea, i grabbed it and did a quick 5 minute test. it's now evident that my transformer was NEVER going into deep sleep mode. I believe the culprit is that i have the 'always stay on while plugged in' option checked in the development section. My theory is that the transformer is near oblivious of the dock and assumes that because the dock can provide power that the TF is plugged in! as soon as i disabled this option i could start going into deep sleep mode. I also moved the wifi disconnect policy to screen off (for the same reasons). I will do a quick charge tonight and then again let it sit turned off all night to see the difference this makes. I suspect that this will fix the issues i have been having.

UPDATE: starting at 100 and 98, after 9 hours, the batteries were at 97 and 89. So i lost a collective 12%. A little more than i was hoping but still very reasonable. 72% of the 9 hours was in deep sleep mode. roughly 2 collective hours were it woke up (for whatever reason, unclear on why). I had left the TF and dock open but turned off for this test. the next test i will do with the tf closed on the dock (folded) to see if it makes a difference.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatbas202:
For what it's worth, my TF101 has been off the charger for about 48 hours and received about 4 hours of very heavy use during that time. The dock is at 38% and the device is still at 100%.

It's a B40 with a B60 dock (I think) running Revolver 3.11.1.

OP, it looks like you've just solved your problem. While I don't think that my device charges from the dock battery, it does treat it as though it were plugged in to the wall when connected.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bob dylan:
just for reference, this suprised me yesterday. i charged both the dock and the tablet last friday morning both to 100%. i didnt turn the tablet off, just closed the lid. my wifi sleep policy is to turn off after lid is closed/screen timeout after 320 secs( using revolver 3.11).

i came back home last night, turned on the tablet. tablet was at 86%, dock was at 99%. thats pretty good going after 3 days of no use.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luna_c666:
I used to get this kind of performance with my previous dock so I know it is possible, but now more like the OP..very very poor. I will try some settings (like he never sleep while plugged in possiblity) otherwise I will be on tablet number 2 and dock number 3 soon..
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patsissons:
@luna_c666 i did notice that i didn't go into deep sleep mode for very long (like 10% of the time) while it was plugged in. So this leads me to believe that leaving the dock plugged in (with the TF docked) will cause the batteries to be used the whole time it is plugged in even after it is fully charged. This suggests that leaving the TF plugged in and docked for LONG periods of time would be damaging to the batteries.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luna_c666:
Hi, thanks for the info!

Here is what i have discovered..I AM going into deep sleep, so that isn't the problem, although I haven't run a good bench test I do NOT have any of the 'never while charging' settings on, yet while trying to use a batteryy health tester app it would not let me do the test because my TF was 'charging'..well, my tab battery is 100, and the dock is 96, the TF should not be 'charging' IMO, I thought it only charged while the tab was <95%? Yet it wouldn't let me run the test because it said I was 'charging' while the dock ws being used.

I also tried to find the 0209 firmware, unsuccessfully, so if nyone has a link to that I would love to bench test the dock with this firmware, however I am on 0213, and I tried with revolver parts to 'roll back to old driver' to fix battery drain in the options, and it did not change the firmware number so I am not sure if it DID or DIDN'T?

Hmm..think my problem is solved?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoang51:
I thought patsissons found the fix for my issue that is similar to such battery draining description. But the problem is that I don't have the stay awake while charging enabled and I have the power savings enabled. When my tablet is completely off and connected to the dock/keyboard, the dock's battery gets drained like crazy just equivalent of luna_c666 is describing. So every time I'm done using the tablet and dock, I would have to disconnect the tablet and the dock to prevent the dock's battery from discharging while not in use. And I'm not referring to deep sleep mode. Deep sleep mode still has the same issue, even after the infamous dock RMA fix.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbliner:
Have you tried using "Better Battery Stats" from the store. It's confusing at first but it can help you learn what app is creating a lot of wakelock requests.

There is a high chance you have a misbehaving app that is waking the device up and doing things. When this occurs, the battery will be drained from the dock since the tablet is designed via hw to always get a full charge when the dock is present.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amcottre:
Ive looked all over and cant find a reason so Im asking here. Ive done a few tests and noticed that over about 8 hours of non use and when the dock has a charge, i only lose about 2-4% of the battery. However when my dock is at 3%, my tablet depleats about 8% over those 8 hours when docked. My dock doesnt have the issues other people had before with it not allowing deep sleep and waking up the tablet. Also, if my tablet is undocked then its the normal 2-4%. It just seems that after my dock is almost fully depleated, it uses more of the tablet batter. Is that normal and is anyone else noticing this? Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbliner:
It is normal that the tablet will use more battery to sustain the keyboard as well as itself.
