Problem - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Just bought a new transformer prime from best buy. Tried to turn it on and it doesn't turn on . I am currently charging it and waiting. . Any help

Make sure the prime is actually charging. On the dock there should be a LED by the connector. On the tablet itself on the power button there is an LED. If its glowing it should mean its charging.
Press and hold the button for about 10-15 seconds, sometimes i gotta do that for my prime to have it actually boot. Give er a shot, maybe you werent holding the button down long enough.
If LED's are not lighting then maybe the charger is bad or the cable is broken. Was the box sealed or open? try to give us a little more to go on...

make sure you press the power button firmly down tell you fell it vibrate.

If your prime after charge didnt want to boot use paperclip and make cold boot..sry for bad english

Do you have the dock?
I had this the other day after charging on the dock and it would not power on until I took the tablet off the dock and plugged the charger into the tablet directly. It then powered on fully charged.

Got new one . Working good. Now all is need is the links to root unlocking the device and cwm ...

Not working well when charger plugged in

Does anyone have problems with the touchscreen when the phone is charging? Mine goes crazy when I hit the screen sometimes, it simply opens up different icons than I click, I can't even slide the answer button when someone calls, I need to unplug it first... Should I send it to Samsung?
yes you should
Or at least RTFM.

I did and it says nothing about it. If you are that smart tell me what's wrong?
Anyone else? I simply don't want to RMA it if this is normal...
You don't have that glass screen protector do you?

Also is your charger a cheap ebay one or is it the one that came with the phone? Also does it work when you charge off usb?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I experienced this behaviour after using the cheap charger... So there is nothing wrong with phone ... Just use any branded charger..

Will it turn on 1st charge?

The reason I ask is I want tocharge it fully before first use and i may be gone for work when it comes in so I'm gonna have my girlfriend charge it so its ready. But i want to be there for the first boot and i know the nook color turns on as soon as you plug it in for the first time. Does anyone know?

Every android device I have turns on when plugged in, including the original Tf. Why does it matter?

My Evo 4G with stock (I think) OR CM (confirmed) also does not turn on automatically while charging.
just charging, it should only go to a charging animation of some kind if anything, it shouldn't turn on unless you turn it on, then again, i don't have the device in my hands, so it's all just speculation really..
Ik HTC phones don't turn on in any way from being plugged into a charger, just the led comes on

lol read your post wrong sorry...
my htc inspire has a charge animation but it dosen't turn on and my iconia A500 just turns on the LED light indicating that it's charging but dosen't turn on
it doesn't turn on when plugged. It only does that if that battery is depleted.

Battery Dead

So my 80 G9 got the dreaded battery dead issue (bug in the android UI made it think it was charging when it wasn't, so it drained and died)
Now I'm stuck. I've got it plugged in and it's doing the pulse 4 times then long blank then pulse 4 times... On the LED, and I'm trying to get it to charge. Any ideas?

That happened to me before.
I left my G9 flat for a good bit and left it charging for a day.
It booted.

My G9 seems to be tatally dead since this morning.
It happened once before that it didn't start up, only flashing LEDs but than it suddenly worked again after some hours being connected to the charger.
But now it's different. I was using my tablet, i think the battery was not empty but the device got unresponsive and I hold power 10 seconds to switch it off and on to reset the device. But it didn't turn on again. Not even flashing LEDs, nothing, just dead, and still dead after some hours charging. I regret having bought a G9, this device is nothing but trouble.
EDIT: OMG, power LED just turned green after having had the charger disconnected half an hour and than reattached it.
Looks promising, will leave it charging an hour before I try to switch it on.
EDIT2: grrr, green LED just means the still dead brick is fully charged
Same here.
Tried everything. Could not get it to charge. I returned it and got a new one.

I've suffered from 2 battery issues.
1) i drained the battery so much it would not turn on even after plugging it in
solution: plug it in for a few minutes/hours/days untill it wants to turn on
2) device would not receive a charge (who knows if this was my fault or archos fault)
solution: hope you have not had your device more than 1 year so you are still under warranty and ship to archos for them to fix
right now i'm waiting for archos to ship me a new device

if i was not under warranty i would be with u on that one. i've heard of ppl getting free upgrades after they ship for repair...might as well take the gamble xD
my device is not charging at all and usb is not working and battery level is 28% any
suggestions?
put the device in warm environment for around 30 minutes and try to charge it. I used my room heater and air conditioner to make it warmer and then it started charging. Thats how G8 devices are getting through this problem. Try it with your G9 hope it works!

Touch Screen Calibration

Is there a way to calibrate the screen?
Sometimes mine will act possessed and have phantom touches. Alot of times I try to touch the back arrow, or the menu key and it registers the touch for one of the apps in my dock.

Is you device plugged into the charger when this happens?
On the Razr, the screen would sometimes act up when it was charging, but unplugging it solved the problem.
If it is when your charging then you have an incompatible charger
You need an 1 amp charger

no, this happens off & on without being on the charger

i have noticed this if there is a little bit of water on the screen or a moist part that it does that. the fix is to shut the screen off, dry it, and turn it back on again and you should be good
I also had problems with a 3rd party lockscreen (eg. GO Locker) causing the multitouch to be messed up, but that's probably not the problem you're having.
If your under warranty then send it in
It will only get worse

I is Teh Bricked?

So, I'm at work and I am unable to use my phone. Phone will not power on, I've held the power button for well over a minute in the hopes that it would restart but nothing. I was using the phone just fine today with no hiccups. I've tried charging the phone, but the light will not appear, so it does not seem to be charging. I've also removed the SIM Card, nothing as well. I've tried plugging it into a computer to see if it would sync, and yet again, nothing.
Any solutions?
I'm using the newest P.A.C. ROM, not even overclocked

I've looked at the phone under the brightest bulbs we have here, no indication of any of the sensors lighting up. It's really strange. I've been tinkering with ROMS for several years now and nothing like this has ever happened to me. You would think at least one of the sensors would light up.
Power is what I meant there, try booting into recovery from there

I can't boot up the phone, it's neither charging or booting or giving me any indication that it's alive.

I have used 3 different USB cables in the vicinity and none of them have worked. How would I go about checking my voltage?
Use a multimeter, if you dont have one youll need to find someone with the same phone and test with his.battery.

plug it in to an ac charger not usb let it charge for a few hours then unplug it and hold power or power+volume down under a bright light.
your HTC One is a doorstop, a brick, a paperweight, useless now.

your reply is not helpful. if you dont have anything helpful to say then what is the point of posting. other people have had this exact problem and their phone came back on after charging for a while. this is not what xda is we are a community that helps each other

I do not have a multimeter, I use to have one. When I get home I will use my standard wall socket charger and if nothing happens it is most definitely a hardware issue. Hopefully my AT&T store is open tomorrow and they can help me address the issue. If I get it on before then I will update this thread with a solution.
What caused this to happen?
