My dock arrived a little while ago, so I charged it and then connected to the tablet. It showed that an update was available so I installed the update.
While the mousepad works and it is currently charging the tablet ... none of the keys seem to work.
Any idea what could be wrong? Is mine defective or is there a simple configuration I'm not aware of? Just in case I disabled Thumb Keyboard and I have the Asus keyboard selected (Use physical keyboard is set to ON as well).
Pull tablet out of dock.
Put tablet back in dock.
Fixed?
Unfortunately no. Same situation. Cursor and multi-touch work, but no keys.
Should I assume no one has seen this issue?
try lock key
In the upper right? Doesn't appear to do anything

Did you try the keyboard prior to the update, or is this a new problem post update?

Unfortunately I didn't try it prior to the update since the notification appeared basically right away.
At that point I had only used the pad to move the cursor around. So it is possible the keys never worked, but I suppose it is also possible they worked pre-update.
dock problems of my own
I got the transformer about a little less than a week ago, installed the update, everything was fine. today i got the dock, it seemed to work, saw the firmware update, clicked to update, "Update Failed." Tried again, again failed. Now the transformer doesn't even recognized that its connected. No matter what I do, it won't be recognized... what should i do?
Thanks in advance.
Hi
yesterday, I bought my TF with keyboard. After playing a while, I decided to root them. After succesfully rooting process I installed custom ROM (3.1 from moDaCo page) . It was all the time inserted into dock station but for customising I pull it out. When I insert TF to dock the keyboard stops response. TouchScreen was active. I saw small icon with "!" that update for dock station failed. I re-run the update process (using touch navigation) but it won't progress at all (still 0). Then I reboot TF, and try to start update again. With success. Now all is working perfectly.
Maybe this description helps you somehow.
good luck.
Keyboard not working
I am now experiencing the original issue from this thread. I can not find any other threads describing this exact issue.
Here is the message that I sent Asus support. No reply yet.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keyboard on my docking station stopped working. no errors it just stops. Battery still charges the tablet....Touchpad still works (and buttons)....closing and opening the tablet still shuts off and turns on screen.
No keys work. If I disable the keyboard through the android interface (Use Physical Keyboard = Off) the onscreen keyboard works fine (Current Keyboard is set to ASUS Keyboard).
I have tried
multiple apps
rebooting
undocking and redocking
hitting every key one at a time
hitting every key at the same time
closing the tablet and reopening it
device has not taking any shocks
battery is full
no contact with water
Last time I touched it it worked. it just stopped working.
Here is some additional information that I have learned.
I have tried a second keyboard dock and it does not work either.
I have done a restore to factory state with no change.
Tablet: B50 32gb Not Rooted and current on all asus updates.
Keyboard: B60 no updates available from asus.
I have the same issue
First, put your keyboard on another tablet and make sure the keyboard works. If the keyboard fails on two tablets the keyboard ribbon tape in the dock may be bad, e.g. RMA.
Then, two steps that might work:
(1) reapply the latest update via manual update
(2) factory reset
Might try in any order:
1 & 2
2 & 1
others.
Good luck.

As i stated above i tried two docks and both experienced the issue.
Mine started while the dock was plugged in so a damaged port is unlikely.
As stated above a factory reset has already been done.
I downloaded the firmware updater from the asus ftp site and extracted the asus folder to /microSD with no effect. I can't get a manual update to run. What might i be doing wrong.
I confirmed that the downloaded firmware and current firmware are US
I Confirmed that the zip file is in /asus/update

Might check:
download file corruption
file name extension .zip or .ZIP ?
various folder locations, e.g. root folder microsd vs update
directory or filename might be case sensitive?
I searched for instructions from a couple threads and the ASUS pdf and tried a few things before it worked for me. I do not remember exactly which worked, sorry.
Best wishes and good luck!
This worked for me:
1.Make it so your screen is set to "NEVER" turn off. Put max brightness, maybe play a game or something. Let your battery die. (without the dock)
2.Charge your pad without the battery until it's 100% full. Test to see if it is working. It should be but no guarantees.
3. If you have a dock, charge it as well. You should be able to use your keyboard and the battery life should be visible.
mine has been fine. Not sure if step 1 is needed. If mine stops working again I'll try to reply here.

I put screen to Never Turn off, max brightness, and played a game until the battery completly died.
I charged my pad with out the keyboard to 100%.
No effect.
I'm charging the keyboard right now.
Battery life has always been visible for me.
Well I finally got ahold of ASUS Support. They are having me RMA both my tablet and keyboard (not sure why the keyboard is being RMA'd since it works fine on my friends tablet) I hope I don't get a bad unit back as my current unit has minimal light bleed (not even noticable outside the boot screen) no creaking and my keyboard is a B60 so no issue with battery drain.
I had this issue but fixed it doing what I said. It hasn't come back for days! Also installed different roms and whatnot.

Hi Guys,
I have a 1.8.3 AT&T Atrix (update from 1.5.7 with retainroot) other than that it's pretty much stock. However since updating i've noticed when I plugin to my Multimedia dock nothing pops up to launch - not even the clock option when theres no detected HDMI output.
However when the TV is setup to that output I do see the "M" logo floating around - I can't see how to manually launch any of the AT&T apps to test the functionality either!
Please help
UPDATE:
Usually the remote control I can manually launch the Entertainment Mode (Top left button) but when selecting webtop it just goes back to desktop, still no auto launch when plugging into dock.... must be something missing. Only app I've uninstalled is blockbuster.
theres a funky issue with the adapter being plugged into a power strip. If that applies, try plugging it directly into an outlet and see if that works.

Thanks for the suggestion but did not change my situation. Moved my dock from bedroom TV to my monitor and getting same results (but able to test things much faster
It's clear to me when inserted into the Dock, the phone notices and changes the screen output right away (M logo on TV) and the screen on the phone "refreshes" but the application which launches and asks you what you want to do doesn't launch.
Damn thing - driving me batty now, I might just re-SBF and see how I go!
UDPATE: I think I see the problem, during my 1.8.3. update it failed on the radio, according to MANFIEST.MF that is not the last thing it applies, the very next items are webtop/etc
going to try modify the MANIFEST.MF & updater-script to skip updating the radio band and apply the update.zip again hopefully it'll continue patching the webtop mod and it will function again.
All done & fixed, turns out that was the problem and the solution. Weird, wonder if anyone else had the problem where the baseband image would not apply when doing the 1.8.3 update.
If so, see above, you can modify your update-script to skip that step and then manually apply HSUPA update separately. Once again not sure how I got into this mess, potentially having HSUPA update on before 1.8.3 upgrade was my problem in the first place...
I have the same issue with the official orange fr 4.2.0 (2.2.2) rom after flashed it with rsd lite... I tried to flash other sbf, but nothing works, I can't use my laptop and hd docks anymore...
Do you know a way to correct this issue ?

Hi there!
First time I need to make a topic, as I don't find the answer anywhere..
Had my Touchpad since about two weeks.
However the accelerometer has not functioned at all since I got it.
First thing to check is the auto rotation lock -> it's turned off
Second thing I did was download a sensor visualizer app -> Seismograph.. This shows very weird results for the x-axis (see attached file), fyi, the Y and Z-axis functioned as expected..
Then the third thing I tried, Need For Speed Hot Persuit... A game that uses the X-axis accelerometer (right!?)
This works brilliant!
Other things I have done to troubleshoot this:
Restart the device.
Full reset the device.
Run HP doctor.
All have failed in resolving my problem.
As I've bought the touchpad from a french webstore (fnac.com), HP Netherlands (where I'm from) tells me I need to get back to them for a solution, as they don't offer worldwide repair (unlike ASUS for example).
Fnac.com has not answered to my request to exchange the product (2 days after I got it). And actually I just want to solve it myself if possible, bought it for fun anyways (and reading of course xD)
Any ideas how I can make the OS recognize the accelerometer?
Last thing, the auto rotation functions in the following way: Tablet is stuck in landscape, I turn to portrait, screen turns as well, but within the second the tablet is back in landscape. This behavior can be read from the seismograph screenshot.
Thanks!
Hello
I just started a new thread for a different accelerometer problem (it is just dead)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284760
Was wondering how you ended up fixing your problem.
thanks
Just wanted to ask you the same question...
I still have the same problem. Need to contact Fnac.fr, but my french sucks and my time is scarce. So have been postponing this. My unit actually came DOA.. however Fnac didn't respond to my request, and has now asked me to call them.. sucky service
You have no solution I guess?
Well this is odd..
Out of nothing the auto rotate function is working since today.. I noticed it while reading a PDF in Android. Booting back to WebOS didn't make a difference, the sensor is working again
I've got no clue what did the trick.. I have not updated the kernel or something like that lately.
I wonder if the sensor was kicked back into action by brute force (for instance my cat jumping on the tablet..)
Anyway, problem soved for now =D
hey guys, so i just got the motorola xoom full size bluetooth keyboard today, adn i wanna pair it with my view. i read on here that people only got it working by pairing it in PC mode, which takes away functionality of some buttons. anyone have any way to pair this thing through the true android way?
basically, when i pair, a dialogue comes up with numbers to put in on the kb then hit enter, but the dialogue goes away after 1 second, and thats not enough time to do anything...it just won't stay up. anyone else have any luck with this?
ALSO, when you type, it still uses auto correct from my keyboard..which is pretty annoying. how do you bypass the software keyboard 100% when your hardware is hooked up? thanks!

AHHH!!!! I thought that was just me!!! I bought mine used from Amazon marketplace, so when I saw the pairing issues, I thought it was just defective and that was why they were selling it used. But then I paired it in PC-mode and it worked, so I thought the pairing issues were just a fluke. Hah! Good to see it wasn't just me! Awesome!
As for your question about the View still using auto-correct, I haven't experienced that at all. However, I use Swype as my default keyboard. Perhaps it is an issue with the default keyboard (or whichever one you're using). Try switching Input Methods to a different keyboard?
And to your point about the Android-specific buttons not working because we had to pair in PC mode --- ahhhhhh, no wonder! I just thought it was because those buttons worked ONLY for the Xoom. I paid no attention to it after the first day and I'm happy with my purchase even without the Android keys working, because a) all the other keys work just fine, b) I can type infinitely faster with the full keyboard, and c) I got a great deal on it since I got it used. But it would be nice to have them working.
Anyone else have any idea about how to fix the the Android-specific buttons or pairing without using PC mode?
cool! glad others are doing what i'm doing haha...and yeah, it stopped auto correcting for a bit...then somehow turned itself back on..grr

Hi all,
This is my first thread... I've looked every forum, every existing thread looking for an explanation / solution, with no luck at all... I hope somebody has experienced this with its prime and found a solution, because I'm thinking in RMA it...
The thing is that my sensors stopped working! No accelerometer, no magnetometer. The screen rotates itself to portrait mode when an app asks for it, but it stays that way when exiting the app. I have to go to Settings -> Display to uncheck and check Autorotation to go back to landscape mode. This is annoying! I installed an app called Elixir 2 and in the sensors page only the microphone is listed as present. Every other sensor is displayed as not present.
I noticed it two weeks ago, but I wanted to look for a solution instead of getting it replaced. I think it came with a .15 and it was updated to .21 in the first connection to Internet. I waited for the .28 to be released just in case it fixed the problem, but it did nothing, still has the problem.
By the way, I tried a cold boot and a factory reset... still nothing.
If I can have any word from anyone I will be pleased!
Thank you!
PS: forgive my english, I'm from Spain
Get the app called elixir2. its free. Kirk show u detailed info on everything, including sensors. itll show real time info on them. allows u to cut them off n on or reset them. it might help.

Well, that's exactly what I did! I said it before It just shows an X beside every sensor and under them it says something like "not present" (I don't have the Prime here right now). In that sensors page the only one that is shown as working is the microphone.
Any idea?
Thank you anyway!

Here's a snapshot of the Elixir2 sensors' page.
Hi, I cannot suggest anything new to try.
Today I noticed some of my sensors were not working, tried playing Riptide and found I could not turn. Also tried a level app and found that the orientation was not being detected. My problem was fixed by powering off then turning on again. I did not try elixir2 before the power off, therefore could not say if my prime was in a similar state.
Good luck in getting your prime going again.
Cheers stv

Well, at least someone experienced the same... even with a reset I can't make it work. Is there any "ultra-reset" I can do?
Before .28 I get the same issue.
Sensor can restart after a reboot or a cold start, but after I plug on the dock or after a deep sleep,the sensor stop.
Sometime, after a restart the sensor was not recognized. I use elixir also to check.
Now with .28, the sensor work well.

Did you update to .28 over wifi or using a microSD?

Update done through Microsd.
I have tweaked buil.prop on .21 and result Fota didn't work.
Think also to make a cold reboot and clear cache of all application (can be done with elixir).

demandrin - off topic, do you know where I may be able to get the circiut board that has the microsd slot and the touch screen sensor connectors. I accidentally damaged the connectors and now I can only use the tablet with the keyboard dock as a mini laptop. I emailed Asus but they would not sell me the part. I wonder if Gary would be nice enough to sell me the part.
Is HP the only company that sells parts to customers (I love HP for that reason LOL!!)

An update with my problem: I finally installed the .28 through SD card, having wiped all the data first, and the result is the same: no sensors are present. No autorotation, no compass, no auto-brightness. Elixir shows only the microphone as one of the sensors, everything else is shown as "not available" (as shown on my previous snapshot).
Any help?
Thank you!

And yesterday, with no reason at all, ALL of my sensors (accels, gyro, magnet field, etc.) started working again. I just powered the tablet on and voilà, everything was perfect! Elixir showed all the sensors up and running!

I noticed there weren't many posts on Leelboxes on XDA so I'll provide some quick input for anyone who may search for a review or want to ask questions.
Recently I bought a Q2 on Amazon and finally set it up last night.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N63M03X/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Opening the box/contents
-The box had some wear on it but overall in decent shape
+Comes with power cable, hdmi, remote (no batteries)
-The box had a fairly strong plastic/soldering smell and ins't very appealing visually
Setup
- Plugging in the power starts up the device so I had everything (HDMI, mouse/keyboard) already plugged in/No physical power button
++ Quick boot up and short animation screen
-/+ Decent launcher screen probably depends on preference
-/+ Needed to adjust the screen area down to 90% as it was displaying outside of my viewing area
- Remote sluggish
+ Wireless USB keyboard and mouse are plug and play
- Still haven't figured out how to turn off the on-screen keyboard as the settings menu is device specific
- Playstore and adding Google account FC'd the first time I opened it
Customizing
+++++ Installed SuperSu from Playstore and went through the "normal" non-recovery install process successfully!
+ Installed Leanback Launcher/Google TV v1.14 (newer versions FC) APK from APK mirror and home launcher switcher
++ Kodi and addons preinstalled and setup
-Google Now launcher has icon text issues (words are cut off)
+Installed hidden settings
Performance
+ 5ghz wifi running well
- Some UI lag/stuttering
- App install a little slower than hoped
- Device comes with a memory cleaner button on the provided launcher. Once mem usage hits 80%, stuttering gets annoying. Installed memory cleaner and still evaluating.
+ Video very smooth in Kodi and Youtube
More to come but hope this helps.

Still running well. Mainly use it for Kodi and YT. I found an older version of Nexus Player launcher that works (except suggestions) and looks better than stock.
One complaint I do have, I couldn't get any emulators to recognize USB gamepads. If you want to do any of that, I'd stay away.
I haven't tried Miracast at all but I will if you're still interested. Let me know.
Hey there... I have a question for you. How's the video playback on your box?? I really this box, especially since it has Bluetooth and there is hardly any lag, however, I have had bad luck with it from the get-go. My video playback is horrible! The screen flickers and goes really dark when the scene is shot at night or it's indoors. Sometimes my tv goes black and if it weren't for the captioning, you'd think it's just off. Then the image perks up when the scene is outside or a really bright shot. It really does a number on my eyes as it's a constant thing. I did reach out to their customer service and they have been responsive and sent over instructions to try and fix this, but that hasn't worked. I even got the box replaced, but the issue persists. I'm thinking maybe it's a setting at this point. Would you happen to know if there is a fix to this or is there anything you would suggest? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Kodi seems a bit darker so I have an display setting on my TV that I toggle to vibrant and its much better. HBO Go feels the same. Other than those though, Youtube and Netflix are fine.
Any chance your HDMI cable is bad?

I haven't tried flashing a new rom for this device yet so I may not be the best to help you. But from what I've read, the USB burning tool is your best bet. From experience, it may be a good idea to try flashing with another computer. Also, re-download the imgs.

Hello! Sorry for the late reply, but I have changed HDMI cables twice and changed ports on the TV. Also, I have used an older TV I have with this box and it just doesn't work. The video just bounces from light to dark when on Netflix or streaming any other type of video including YouTube. I have attempted to play with any settings on the box but nothing changes. Kinda bummed, oh well right?

Hi,
In product description it said this is dual wifi enabled (2.4 and 5Ghz) box. So I installed internet wifi router with 2.4 and 5GHz possibility, and Q2 Pro box pick up just 2.4Ghz signal.
Then I turned off manually 2.4GHz possibility in router and Q2 Pro box didn't see any wifi network, while my LCD and PS4 was connected on 5GHz without problem.
So, my question is, how to enable receiving 5Ghz wifi signal on Q2 Pro box?
Thank you
I've been having some trouble rooting the Q2 Mini Leelbox, wondering is that a different model than the Q2? i am also having an issue changing the default home launcher on my box, it seems like the Zonglauncher that is installed on it wants to be the only proprietary launcher option an because i cant gain root, I can't run effin system app deletion.
I figured kingroot would do it, but it has not been of any help so far. Shoot I've googled Root Leelbox Q2 mini and pretty much theres nothing out there. must not be a very popular box. now that i noticed it is rockchip, i'm a little disappointed with it, might even return it, but it does have 2G/8G for only 43 Dollars on amazon.

I've been having some trouble rooting the Q2 Mini Leelbox, wondering is that a different model than the Q2? i am also having an issue changing the default home launcher on my box, it seems like the Zonglauncher that is installed on it wants to be the only proprietary launcher option an because i cant gain root, I can't run effin system app deletion.
I figured kingroot would do it, but it has not been of any help so far. Shoot I've googled Root Leelbox Q2 mini and pretty much theres nothing out there. must not be a very popular box. now that i noticed it is rockchip, i'm a little disappointed with it, might even return it, but it does have 2G/8G for only 43 Dollars on amazon.

It must be a different version. If I recall correctly, I didn't have to install anything to get root. I just ran a root checker and confirmed I was good to go.
I also was able to install any launcher I wanted. But in the end, their launcher was good enough for the apps I use (Kodi, Netflix, HBO Go, Youtube).

No. I don't think there is a TWRP version for this device.
I ended up shipping it back for a refund. Really was quite a pos if I ever did see one. Made me pretty angry tbh, it was a rockchip anyways I mean it did have 2g/8g but certainly performed worse than some 1g/8gs ice bought in the past.
i have the mini
*works fine ..no lag or stuttering
*only problem is weak wifi with no 5ghz support
#im looking for info regarding using a d'link wifi dongle with it to boost wifi
to everyone this box is prerooted
install any app and if it requests root it will be given root automatically without even a toast message
you can enter recovery and factory reset or flash updates or even flash update zips by inserting a needle / pin / toothpick into the headphone jack amd pushing down at which point you will feel the button click...keep the button in then pull out the power cord and put it back in and it will boot to recovery ...you can rename supersu as update.zip amd flash it from sd card to replace root or get root management apk installed ..you can also install supersu apk directly from playstore
you can enable developer settings by usual means by pressing on version number in settings/about
i am looking into solving wifi problem first ...then i will try to flash custom images
my first workaround is to boot Ubuntu from sd card and install opemelec or omc or similar
*reason is amazon prime video fails playback in both apk or browser
*netflix is working fine through apk
*kodi is running smoothly
by installing linux through sd card i will try to get better wifi by wifi dongle and then by getting playback working for amazon video ..if i succeed i will create a thread and a post a link and proceed from there ..i think we might be able to port or flash some other custom firmware too ...i will try it after Ubuntu....
