HELLO my TPRIME keyboard is not charging the tablet charges up to 100% but as i type my TPRIME keyboard is at 15% while the tablet is at 100% & both are connected and plugged to the charger i even deleted battery stats if anyone has this problem or knows how to fix this please respond THANK YOU
Lol, breathe, calm down, and learn how paragraphs work.
You are saying you have the prime docked on the keybord dock and the usb cable plugged into the dock. The prime says its charging but the dock does not say its charging?
Have prime docked. Prime should say its charging from the keyboard dock even if the dock is not plugged in.
Plug in charger to dock. Prime should notify that the dock is charging.
Now if you plug the charger into the dock there should be a light by the charging port that glows showing the dock is, in fact, charging. do you see this light? Does it glow when the charger is connected?
If the dock charge indicator does NOT glow and you know you are getting power from the charger then i suggest trying to get a refund or replacment for your dock as it seems to be malfunctioning.
Hopefully this helped. hit the thanks button if it did!
hello PILEOT thank you i understand what you explained but i have another friend who has a TF201 and the same thing happed to his prime i spoke to him he told me that he purchased a new charging plug and it solved the issue so ordered a couple of new plugs because the one i have i bought it and its a usb apadter plug im also going to call ASUS the only problem is i unlocked my bootloader that may be a problem but im not going to mention that fact thank you

as title says, does anyone know when does docking station start charging the tablet? cause ive noticed that even when my tablet is at like 75% while keyboard is at 90% its not charging the tablet
A little searching would tell you that your tablet won't begin charging until it's reached 70%.
ahhh kk, mmm guess ill have to test this then
If your cable is plugged into your dock and the tablet connect to the dock, the tablet will charge first, once the tablet is fully charged the dock then charges, ive also noticed, if my tablet is on low power and the dock is charged, the dock charges the tablet moving its charge to the tablet, COOL!!!
I wonder if dock charging tab is an OK thing in terms of not shortening batery life in future ... does anyone have any info on this?
How is everyone charging their prime with the keyboard docked? My battery was dead on both last night so I plugged the charger into the keyboard expecting it to be full this morning but is is only on 34% keyboard and 84% tablet. Is this normal? I did leave the tablet on whist charging but I don't have anything running and screen was off (lid closed)
Meybe it is bug... when you again drain dock+tablet battery to 0% try to charge if you have again this problem please send me a message to pm.. sorry for english

Check the cable is in properly and the charge light is on. My first prime was sent back for charging problems. After a couple of days the slightest knock would move the cable enough to stop it charging.

Keep in mind that this is not a parallel battery configuration. When Docked the tablet charges from the dock and the dock charges from the power adaptor so its perfectly normal to see the tablet at a higher charge than the dock. I always charge with it docked and it stays docked unless I just happen to play a game requiring it to be undocked.
Also how long was it charging?
I never run both completely dead and have found that generally speaking if I plug it in when I go to bed its fully charged the next morning. While I do use it quite a bit Ive yet to completely exhaust the batteries.
It is something like this (others please post corrections as needed):
ATP charges when charger is plugged into an outlet.
ATP charges from the dock when battery level hits 70% or just below (I haven't noticed which yet) until it is near full.
ATP charges from the dock when the dock is plugged into an outlet using the charger.
The TF101 would charge from the dock whenever plugged in, so this is nice IMHO.
TF101 plugged into a USB 2 port = trickle charge on the TF101, so I assume same since the dock not charging via USB 2.0 was noted in my ATP dock's manual.

I tried to plug into my prime to charge as I usually do when it gets low on battery and it refused to detect that it was plugged in. I've tried with multiple outlets and yes I am using the official asus wall charger and cable. It only charges very, very, very slowly if the tablet is off and plugged into the wall charger. In no case does it detect that it is actually plugged in though.
I see that there is a system update, not sure if that would fix it since I can't do it because I'm at 8% battery currently.
I'm on 9.4.2.14 right now
thanks in advance
I just updated this morning to the .15 and now I can't charge, so don't know if that will help you. Same as you I tried multiple outlets and nothing; reboot didn't help either. Prime was working great for me for what I need, now this. Will try the charging while shutdown. I see an RMA soon. Charging while off only is not an option, it's an inconvenience.

I have had the same problem after receiving .15 this past weekend. I have tested other cables and wall chargers and know that's not the issue. I also did a factory reset to no avail.
Any ideas?
Check the charger or get a new charger.
I've been having the same problem.. tablet will not charge either. Luckily or me i scored on a dock. And now the only way my tablet will charge is when i connect the tablet to the dock and use the wall charger to simultaneously charge both tablet and dock. Without dock, tablet will not charge. Maybe trickle charge only when screen is off. Gotta me a software glitch. Can't be usb cable or ac adapter as with dock, everything works perfectly.
Im having the same problem. Prime doesnt charge while connected to wall charger...it seems to only charge when the screen is off and connected to a pc. When this first happened a few days ago i left the prime powered off and plugged it into the wall to charge overnght which it actually charged but it hasnt charged again since. So ive been at 10-20 all day and barely get to use it so it wont die as i checked the battery stats and it seems the prime is consuming a whole lot of power in a short amount of time...if its not the charger then im screwed since i unlocked the bootloader...this issue needs attention as its effecting multiple users so hopefully someone somewhere can either confirm that they tried using a new charger and what the results were or someone else has a charger that you know works and try using your prime on another persons tablet..it seemed to have started when i had "switch me" app installed and running a guest profile i noticed my pc stopped communicating with my prime and it all went downhill from there..
It's definitely not the charger in my case. I'm waiting to hear back from Asus, I'll update when I get their response.
Hello,
my Prime does not charge at the moment. Neither in the dock nor with the charging cable.
I can connect it to the computer, i also charges there, but very slowly.
I just unlocked the prime and flashed AndroWook ROM.
What can I do?
Do you have another charger box? - It seems that your USB cable is good but possibly that the box that cable plugs into is bad or somehow defective, see if you can either A: Borrow someones charger box or if possible buy another one and test it to see if it works. IF it does work keep the charger or return it and possible contact whoever you bought your prime from and ask for a new charger.
It's most likely the charger box because the same thing happened to me. I am currently using my old cellphones usb charger. It doesn't show it as charging because it's like 5-10 volts instead of 15, but it still charges, just takes longer.
So I have this issue where my dock is unable to charge. When I plug in my tablet on its own, it charges just fine (though the little light to indicate as such does not seem to work). When I plug the dock in on its own, it doesn't charge, and the little indicator light does not shine, either. When the tablet is connected to the dock and I plug it in, the tablet charges, but the dock does not. I am fairly certain it is not the dock because I have bought two different docks and the problem was present both times (first dock was refurbished, second one is brand new). Seeing this problem twice is extremely frustrating and I don't know what's wrong. Any help is much appreciated!

Never heard of that one but applying some logic:
1. The dock should charge if the power cable is plugged in to it even without the tablet connected (i.e. the dock can charge by itself). Hooking it up this way eliminates the tablet as the source of the problem since it isn't hooked up. So the tablet is not the problem
2. Therefore the problem has to be either the dock, the cable, or the charger.
3. You already tried using a different dock (the second one being brand new) with the same result, probably eliminating the dock as the problem (as you already indicated).
4. That leaves the charger or the cable. Do you have another cable you can swap in?
I have Exactly the same problem.. My cable charges the tablet perfect but not the dock.
I plug the cable charging the dock overnight and nothing, cero charge. But if I leave charging the tablet it charges perfectly.
Now. I also notice that when I connect the tablet to the dock it says " change to Asus keyboard for better consistency " How do i chage this?
