Just picked up the 64GB Asus Transformer Prime 2 hours ago and so far really liking how fast this thing is! I got the keyboard as well, but as I am typing on the Prime, I keep accidentally hitting the track pad and keeps moving around. Will have to check for the settings if there is any. It does have Android 4.0.3.
Now will be selling my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

Where did you get it from?

Fry's Electronic store. The website shows as zero instock, but I was in the area and stopped by and they had them in-stock. They actually have the Champagne 32GB as well.

And you don't have any issues with horizontal lines across your screen?
I decided to get breakfast this morning. It was pretty good, although I kept trying to eat my cornflakes with a fork.

So far no horizontal issues that I see. only seeing the GPS issue like others, and low WiFi signal.
Another thing I did notice is that I have the keyboard dock and when I docked the Prime, it was showing that the Prime tablet was at 100% and the dock at 90% and started to have some lock ups, I restarted and when it did, it showed the Prime tablet 89% and the dock 91% and doesn't show that it is charging the Prime tablet. Hmm... Not good for a $600 tablet.
Another thing I noticed is that the cursor jumps all over the screen when I am typing with the keyboard and I don't even touch the track pad. Another bad thing. I might try to exchange the keyboard dock for another and see if it is the keyboard.

gps fix seems to be released in the new OTA update tonight.
What version does it up date too? Running the System Firmware Update and keep getting "Failed to Connection" I will keep trying
Hopefully it does fix GPS as I would use this feature a lot since I would be traveling outside office everyday.

Try turning off the touchpad while you type. It's the 4th button from the left on the top row, if your keyboard is like the TF101's.

Thanks i did disable the touchpad but thats not really what i wanted to do. I am going to exchange the dock for another one just in case there is something wrong with this one.
By the way keyboard works great with touchpad disabled.

You have the side with the screws on the same side as the screen, right?

Mine was tough to push in too...close to the point I really worried I was going to break it, and I don't have any extra skins on my prime adding to the thickness. I just think the internal rubber film on the gps dongle is ever so slightly thicker then the film on the inside of the keyboard dock (or perhaps my dock has just loosened up over the past several months).
As long as you are lined up right, you should be ok...

It doesn't "click" in, you simply attach it and then manually lock the lock switch.
I noticed one thing when I received mine. I faced the same problem as you did and then i realized the lock switch on the dongle was on the lock condition which is why i was not able to push it in. (Ideally, a freshly manufactured dongle should have the lock switch to the 'Unlock' side)
I believe you have completely removed the rubber pads on the locking grooves left and right of the 40 pin connectors.
Hi i have experienced strange problem with my dock. Keyboard does not work at all. Prime detects dock connected, even touchpad and usb works fine. But i cant type anything with hw keyboard... has anyone had problem like this?

Do you use the stock Asus keyboard for the on screen keyboard, because I recall if you don't it can sometimes freak the dock out.
Im using thumkeyboard. But it has been working normally for past 4 months.and then suddenly keyboard stopped working
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
Thats really weird. Did you update your tablet today?
No. I just spilled few drops of water on dock. But it didnt look that serious. I cant believe it caused keyboard not to work if everything else on dock works normally.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
Water in the wrong place could potentially cause it to stop working. Wait a few days for the water to dry out completely and it should be fine. If not you could try sending it in for repairs but they might not do it for free if they notice the water damage.

Actually it was alcohol vodka. Hope it gets better. If not im gonna rma it, cause i have many bright spots on screen too

I am having the same issue, but my screen also turns off when I doc it and I have to restart it for the screen to turn back on.
Same problem here, but my touchpad doesn't work either

Anyone have any luck fixing this?

My keyboard and everything else stopped responding on me once as well. Called ASUS and sent in for RMA, was a little worried since I had a skinomi skin on it. They were able to repair it and not mess up the skin to much, couple of little things were marked up on the skin, but considering I figured they would just remove it, it was a bonus. I know it's not a definite solve, but the keyboard is fixed to the chasis, checked before I sent it in. Got it back in about 10 days from the time I sent it in.
hey guys,
i've doing some scouuting around and im wondering if any one has seen a bicklit keyboard mod for the prime?
i mean if they can put an external HDD in the dock, gotta be able to do this right?

OP i dont mean to flame you or anything but try the search button, already been mentioned a few times. Not going to go over what was in the other threads.
If you still dont find what your looking for try posting in those threads
Happy trails!

Question is where have you been scouting? instead of scouting try searching
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=31801814&pp=25&page=2
Thanks Guys,
I did trying searching it came back with Zero results, possibly didnt have the correct words.. thanks again
So i clicked the link, and no matches found
sorry to get this old thread back up.
I'm currently working on a keyboard backlight mod for my tf201.
I plan on using EL Panels for the light.Problem is, the needed inverter is too big for the case so I need do design an external "dongle" that gets power from the battery and feed high voltage for the EL panels back in. I'm thinking about using some sort of USB connector and a 3D printed case for the electronics.
The panels I ordered should arrive in the next 2 weeks and I'll start working (and documenting).
Use a strip led... then plug it into dock bbattery and add a switch into the dock for on off.... should be enough room...

nah, that's boring (also, I like EL Panels and discouraging people from using random found usb drives
I did it.
I succesfully modified my TF201 keyboard dock with some el panels and added a plug outside to connect the inverter. Power comes from the internal battery.

I'll write a detailed blog post with pictures during the next few days.
There we go

I think it's really cool! ...any chance there will be a future one that stays more internal? Just wondering...

I'm working on that
Problem with EL wire and panels are the inverters needed for the supply voltage and frequency. Since those conain a coil / transformer of sorts, they tend to be big. But there are inverters and parts for smaller panels. So maybe I can build something with that.

I may try this on the Asus 701 keyboard or my old tf201 keyboard ....( I also might scavenge the battery from the 201 board and make portable one.....

Does anyone have any quick fixes for the camera on this tablet? It is showing me a green screen, however if i push on the camera it turns pink with lines of green. Put more pressure on the camera and it says that it cannot connect to the camera and force closes.

First thing I would suggest is to open up your prime and remove and re-seat your camera. If that doesn't work then you are going no need a replacement camera. I just check and eBay lists a few of them. I bought bone from eBay a few months back and have not had a problem since.
I very rarely use it, but it is nice to know it is there if I ever want to.
i think the reseating it might work, but i have no clue on how to open it up. is the prime easy?
I have opened a few older galaxy captivates, and they were simple, but they had removable backs.
