[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary Key:
We tested more than two units, those two were from forum returns who had the problem. To put this in perspective, we contacted 23 users who discussed the problem on this forum and only 2 of them agreed to swap units. Out of the remaining 21 users, 16 never replied to messages. Of the remaining 5 users, 3 could not provide serial numbers for a swap and the last 2 said they had returned the unit (but both are apparently still two of the more avid posters complaining about every single problem listed on the board). ;)

If you had the problem before and still have it after the update then we would like to get your unit back. Please PM me and provide your serial number, contact number and email address and we will arrange a swap.

Hi Gary,

Are you talking worldwide or just USA costumers?, I'm in uk and my seller say that there is not a reason to refund me...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cksuen:
Same problem here

This is my second TPrime.

The first one had lots of problems (HDMI connector not working, random reboots, etc) which I returned to best buy.

The second that I bought from HHGregg was perfect when I received it and updated to the initial ICS update.

Since updating to .13 last night, however, my second transformer prime has been rebooting a few minutes after it goes to sleep or refuses to wake up after going to sleep.

The only way to keep it from rebooting was to change the display setting so that the display does not turn off but obviously that is not a reasonable solution.

I thought perhaps the update was not installed properly initially so this morning I downloaded the update from ASUS's website and re-ran the update.

I also reset the device to factory settings. Unfortunately, it did not help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I bet I can guess who those last 2 are...lmfao. well people you heard it, provide serial, contact info, n email. If someone who posts a problem can't provide serial numbers or won't agree to a swap then that seems very shady. Its on them n proves they wasting peoples time even trying to post a complaint if they not ready to back it up. Why would someone turn down a swap for a more than likely good working prime? Why would someone be afraid to give necessary info needed. EITHER they full of ish, something shady going on, or never owned a prime in the first place. We have alot of people who over a month ago said they returned the prime yet still posting on new issues...lol or people who never owned one and love to piggyback on issues. Knowing someone who owns a prime is cool but not the same as owning device yourself and going through the paces with it yourself.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] extdrive:
I was having the same problem as others described. After the latest update the prime struggled to wake from sleep. Also the battery would drain very quickly. I installed the Google chrome beta at about the same time as the update. In hopes that it was the beta and not the update I uninstalled chrome. That seems to have cleared up the problem for me. No problems waking and it has returned to normal battery drain.

Will advice if I see the problem again.

Its a shame I was really digging the beta.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BigDaveZJ:
Same situation here, uninstalled Chrome and so far it comes out of sleep fine. Will report back if that changes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I'm about to uninstall chrome till they get a real version out. Too much coincidence of people just installing chrome browser before update n having issues.

Next thing I hear about chrome browser I'm uninstalling immediately..lmfao
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texasrocket:
I backed up my apps did a factory reset and it seems to be waking ok now. I'm not 100 percent for sure yet but I am going to keep testing till tomorrow. will update after I fully test it for a day.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BigDaveZJ:
Yeah it didn't fix it. SN is a BC.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Reignzone:
If you guys can put up or make due with these minor issues until the next expected update in 10 days or so, then I would factory reset the device and start fresh from that new bit of software/firmware.

That's my plan.

I mean, this is similar to all of the issues that the Epic 4G experiences with the EL30 OTA, because of compatibility issues, the older cache from previous Android builds conflicts with newer firmware, baseband, and software versions.

Just my $0.02 folks.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayer69:
I am one of the members on here that have a perfect prime in every way. No complaints. I too noticed my battery draining after the update....but guess what......I too also installed Google chrome just after the Asus update. So after reading this I uninstalled.......and already I am seeing a difference.

I am going to let it sit over the night....and will post a screen shot in the morning. :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ugotproblemz:
Just update my prime about 2 hours ago (without checking the forums) and just now the same issue occur to me. mines the C1 and previously it has not happen before.

i was so scared since unlike my sg2 i cant pull the battery. so i plugged it into the outlet...nothing happen...held the power button a few times..nothing happen...so i thought battery was dead even tho i know its not (was about 87% 2 hours ago) so i walked away and within a few minutes the screen came back on.

playing around with it again, hopefully its only a one time problem...but almost gave me a heart attack O_O

EDIT: my prime is still stock, didnt root or mod or anything.

Additional information: i updated the new OTA software as well as the new camera firmware in one go. not sure if it means anything, jus throwing info out there to someone smart ALSO it was docked not sure if that means anything
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slugbug2010:
Ya know, I'm not normally one to complain (too much) or stir the pot (too much) - and a quick search will show that I am a supporter and proponent of Asus, waiting things out, giving them time, etc. Their reputation with the OG is one of the reasons I was confident going as an early adopter with the Prime.

But I had the dead screen, unable to wake up problem after the first (or second) update and no one contacted me. It didn't lock up and reboot, the screen just went black and didn't wake up. And then I couldn't wake it up without pressing vol+power. . It eventually slowly went away and now it rarely happens, but I mentioned it in may threads, and I never saw Gary or anyone else looking into it since it seemed so rare (only a handful of people I came across)

Oh well, all's well that ends well. If it only effects a few, and if uninstalling Chrome is helping many (I don't have it), and the new update is helping others, then I still maintain that Asus is doing the best they can to push updates out to us that will be meaningful, significant and helpful.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
If you have Google chrome bets browser, uninstall it immediately. Seems like most who having this issue also just recently installed that app. Then alot uninstalled it and their device working fine. It's worth a shot. Good luck! Lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ugotproblemz:
Thanks, but i didnt have chrome installed...i only just stock ICS browser...well its not a big deal YET since its not a recurring issue yet...hopefully its a one time thing only

But thanks again!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
What does Asus stand for?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
It's not Chrome, unless ASUS updated something that made Chrome worse. Chrome itself works really well. This is from another thread I posted in:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] venture51:
I just installed the .13 update on a stock sn BC model Prime. I had the Chrome beta and experienced the endless sleep, but even after removing Chrome still experienced the endless sleep...Both times device had to be rebooted to get it to start. NOT GOOD. :-(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] XHolyPuffX:
My friend..I would LOVE to swap units to help you provide a fix. But what that most likely means is a very long RMA process that will leave me without a tablet for a while, and I just so happen to need it next week for school. Also..if this is caused by the new update, then how is sending me a new one going to help?

Not trying to bite the hand that feeds here, but the solution is pretty much to fix it with an OTA update or something. I just don't want to have to ship this thing out unless it's absolutely necessary. Also, I'd rather not wait for an RMA because it'd probably go past my Newegg return window, which ends in about 18 days.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] swngdncr:
I had this same problem today, screen went black and I couldn't turn the prime on. I had not experienced this problem previously , I do not have chrome installed. So far it has only happened one time. Haven't had too many problems with prime. Wifi wasn't great, but OK. Now it is better. Likewise GPS seems to be a little faster inside. Haven't checked outside yet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gbcrush:
I've got the bug here too

registered this account just to say 1) thank you xda and Gary for looking into this, keeping this issue on the scope, and providing all the help that you have

and 2) unfortunately, I've got the sleep of death issue too, after upgrading to .13

Last night I upgraded from .11.1 (which, ironically, despite being beta was the best behaved my prime has ever been) to .13 in order to continue getting updates, etc. Install went smooth, but after letting it sleep for a while, discovered I was having the same issues as other people in this thread. In short, if the screen turns off and I want it back on, I'm ok for a little while. If I actually let it sit for 20-40 minutes (sometimes as few as 10) I cannot wake my tablet up without a long power press / holding the power button and tapping away at the volume key.

Since encountering the problem, I've tried a full power off/power on, resetting the prime, factory resetting the prime, all to no avail. Most recently I tried a full factory reset. I only entered in my google account and downloaded no apps or updates. Since I still got the bad sleep, I'd be inclined to say its not an application I've added to the system...

So yes, it's a real shame too, because when its on, I'm loving my prime. Alas, like the random reboot bug I had before, this sort of frustration makes me avoid it more than use it. Gary, if you're still doing a swap program, I'll happily send mine in for testing. In it's current state it's difficult to use so there isn't much change sadly, but maybe it'll help you guys fix this for me and the others.

There's a PM on its way.

Perfect till .13 OTA Update

1st post and made only to add:

I meant the perfect also... Good wireless, BT, etc. I had read on these forums extensively before buying and even with the issues I saw was like why not try it. Got it from Best Buy ~2 weeks ago and no issues at all.

This .13 OTA comes out. I check XDA forums to see and most are happy with it so DL it. I update, play around a bit, and put the prime down to do some work. Come back to a black screen and nada. Long power button press, nothing, short press nothing, dock and undock nothing. I basically freak out and hop on the forums again (my return window to Best buy just ran out today go figure).

Apparently I also have the "Sleep issue" and apparently my Battery life has taken a nose dive. No HARD data it just went from ~71% to ~35% over the 4 hours trying to "wake it back up..." Not sure if that is a side effect of the "Sleep issue" or just another .13 feature. I have added about 4 apps to this Prime since I got it (WIFI analyzer, Aldiko etc..) but not Chrome Beta.

Is there any way to go back to an earlier firmware since that was rock solid and perfect for me?

I have one of the S#'s in BCOKAS
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ugotproblemz:
Sitting in class right now and it rebooted 3 times after going to sleep and screen when black and tablet became irresponsive..which I had to hold the power button ....becoming a persistant issue after the update....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ac1680:
I still have this issue " sleep issue or Black Screen of Deadth" after update to .13 two days ago. Have try all the option out there. Reset through the pinhole, hard reset by holding Volume down + power for 30 seconds and more. Nothing come on, even the power bottom is not on, only vibrate. Need help anybody??
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Come on, Asus. Just give us our old firmware back. It's b.s. for us to sit here and wait for you to come up with a fix for your previous "fix" that screwed up many of our Primes in the first place. This is ridiculous.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gbcrush:
Following up on my account from earlier:

Like everyone else on this bug, I'm experienced massively increased battery drain.

I started today at 100%.

I spent much of the day not doing anything to the tablet, on average letting it sit 40 minutes or more to let it go to sleep before checking to see if it was "dead sleep" or not.

I was also working from home, so had plenty to distract me away from the tablet all day inbetween checks.

Since I did the factory reset this morning, I haven't installed a thing (until just right now). I haven't run a single update. In fact, I didn't even launch an app. All I did was let it power on and go to sleep.

So, with nothing "extra" running in the background aside from whatever normal processes there were, it managed to burn itself down to 43% today.

That's ~56% battery loss for a grand total of (first time I've pulled up the settings menu since factory reset) a grand total of 25 minutes, 30 seconds on battery.

I've worked at tech companies all my life, I know this isn't a standardized, measurable, exactly repeatable test, but there is definitely something wrong with my unit post .13
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Lol, they should just repackage .11 as .13.1 and let us go to town reverting back to the good times.

Then, freeze DMClient and never look back! :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Andy T11:
Another problem with .13 upgrade and sleep of death issue.

Prime is BC serial number. Was working great prior to the .13 upgrade.

Now, after putting it to sleep with the button, when I wake it up, I usually get a rebooted prime, or the rebooting screen.

No chrome beta was installed, and no new apps were installed since the update.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texasrocket:
ok. my results after doing a factory reset yesterday. I woke up and prime still turned on. I thought the factory reset work but then I had like 25% battery left put my prime down for about an hour and went to go eat. I was gone about an hour and come back and my prime is completely dead. won't wake nothing. hook up my charger and have to wait and let it charge cause it had no juice and it wouldn't boot at first. so I am guessing there is still some problem. 25% drain in about an hour is crazy. I'm wondering if I should send my prime in but I'm afraid they might send me one that is even more messed up. I have read where people get a worse one back. that would suck if they sent me one with crazy light bleed or some other issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Out of the return window then?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] texasrocket:
yes. stupid frys only gave a 15 day return window.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] edster00:
Yeah I bet I know who one of them is anyway, I won't mention names but PTB are the initials! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Then wait. Surely we'll get another update or an older one packaged as such to attain at least a temporary calm before the next storm.

If in the return window however, no reason not to return for a refund and wait a couple weeks for either a new serial# or until things stabilize. Can always buy it again. The wait still sucks lol, but better than worrying over a potential $5-600 brick.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ohwell:
After the 13 update my gps quit I seemed to have high battery drain and my prime seemed a bit laggy. I did a factory reset nothing changes, I shut it off overnite and charged it did another factory reset when I returned home from work reinstalled my apps and lo and behold gps works, battery drain seems much better and I'm very happy with this thing now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary Key:
If you have experienced the reported sleep issue please try the procedure below and let me know via PM if it works or not. We received hard data from two users today (big thanks) who have this problem so we are trying to replicate it now. However, even with a few dozen systems here we have had no success yet.

The engineers suggest this based on the reports at this point. Go to APPS, SETTINGS, DEVELOPER OPTIONS and then CHECKMARK FORCE GPU RENDERING. After doing this please do a power shutdown and restart. You can also enable WiFi to stay on during sleep which fixed another users system this evening. Two completely different solutions to the same problem, weird but true. ;)

I will have an update on Monday.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Frooty:
Thanks for the reply Gary! I've had Wifi set to not turn off when the screen goes off and I still have this problem. I just turned on the force GPU rendering and rebooted though and I'll see how that goes.

To everyone else having this problem: does anyone have any issues with their screen randomly turning back on while the tablet is sleeping? Mine will turn on for no reason even though I don't have any notifications or anything. I'm wondering if that's related to the other sleep issues I'm having.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gbh62:
Where is the option to enable/disable wifi during sleep? I can't find that one.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pmuch12345:
Settings -> Wifi (Turn WiFi On if Off, Let tablet conect to WiFi)

In Upper Right corner of tablet you will see 3 small boxes stacked vertically. Click

on this icon. Click Advanced.

Option is Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep. Click on this option to change it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eduardmc:
Ok Gary this is everything i have done and still getting constant reboot and sleep of death.

disable and enable FORCE GPU RENDERING

disable and enble wifi to stay on or off during sleep

FACTORY RESET

PUSH OTA .13 AGAIN MANUALLY

drain battery and fully charge same problem

keyboard dock or stand alone device.

The only solution i have found that it works is leaving the screen ON all the time without going into sleep mode. cause if it does, evertime i get reboot or sleep of death. i can confirmed that this problem never happened while in .11

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jfarinella:
For the record, I love my Prime - so much so that I gave my netbook to my 16 year old and am exclusively using the Prime now when I am travelling/walking around the house or just hanging out. I had very minor reboot issues during the first few weeks after getting my prime on the .11 release (1 every few days) but my wifi and GPS seemed to be OK. It was very acceptable. When I first installed the .13 it was unusable - the Sleep of Death problem. Plugged in or not, every time it went to sleep it shut down. I called Asus and they asked me to do a factory reset, which I did. That cleared up the Sleep of Death issue. Later that evening, like most nights, I was catching up on emails right before bed time. I set my Prime down for the night but it didn’t seem to sleep. In the morning, it was completely dead. A long press on the power button brought up the startup screen with a battery showing it was fully drained. Only after charging it for a few minutes would it even start. I am not rooted on my Prime and this problem did not occur with .11.

I would be happy to work with ASUS on trying to find the problem so I don't have to carry my charger on short trips. I can do without my Prime for a week or so if needed.

Revive thread?

I see this stopped in Feb., but I have just encountered the problem in April. I tried power, and power + volume, but transformer prime is still dead. Any help?

Hello All,

I'm wondering if there is an app package available that would let me control my android cell phone, from an android tablet. IE, Bluetooth paired or on the same wireless network, can the screen from the phone be sent to and displayed on the tablet, with control given on the tablet. I'm mostly interested in being able to text without having to put my tablet down and pick my cell phone up, but full control seems like a normal step up if it's available.

In case specs matter...
