So have Asus really screwed this up. I could do with your help by testing this.
While docked, pick up a widget that's resizable.
Move it around the screen and then let go so you can resize it.
Don't resize it but let the tablet go to sleep.
As usual though, my video will paint better words.

I tried 5 times, with SD card in the dock and without. I cant replicate the bug.
I must add, I did a factory reset loaded Asus stock .28, root, ota via the dlpkgfile so my setup is a fresh install so to speak.
I'm rooted JB stock and locked.
if that makes a diffrence
Hey folks,
I just found a real issue. Instead of opening a new thread, I think it fits quite well here.
So here is the thing:
I connected a old and small microsoft USB mouse (USB ID 045e:00a4 Microsoft Corp.) to the dock to use it together with splashtop. Now if I just wait until the tablet goes to sleep it will suddenly reboot. This is - at least for me - easy to reproduce.

Okay, I've now got this issue. Had it reboot several times unintentionally and that was while doing work
Just leave any USB device plugged in. Leave it till it goes to sleep... Restarts. What a crazy bug?! I was just viewing some PDF's, and then left my tablet for a minute, next thing you know, it's restarted itself.

vgjfelix, I got the same thing with the mouse too. Also can you test to see if your BACKSPACE key works? After the update, with the stock browser, the backspace key doesn't work when you do a web search like in yahoo.com or google.com
Thanks
This is a nasty jelly bean bug, but hopefully because of your well documented video, Asus can get it fixed on the next update.

my TP just restarts whenever i play games. that's just great
Well I am begining to feel left out. I cannot get my prime to force close. I have even tried having the weather widget in its move box and an sd card in the slot as well as a usb mouse plugged in and it just goes to sleep just as it should and a nudge on the mouse a bit later and it wakes up just as it should. This prime has never forced closed since JB. Stock machine. Happy with it.
I've had this issue but without resizing widgets or anything.. I just let the tablet alone for a bit... it goes to sleep then either reboots by itself or just shuts down.. and then I have to long press the power button to turn it on again (it takes much longer to turn on after this happens)
Yep, me too. Thought it was a game or something, but it just randomly reboots just after going to sleep. Tried wiping and factory reset. No joy.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks
YellowShed
Thanks to all who posted in this thread (clicked a few key 'Thanks' buttons). I was going crazy with the reboots 5-10x a day after JB update.
Saw USB/SD comments so I removed my SD card and my usb thumbdrive from the dock late last week and it's been up and stable for about 5 days with no reboots.
My reboots seemed to coincide with either dimming to sleep or waking up (music playback when closed was the clue that some were apparently on wake)

I have a dual Booted Tablet. When I hit the N button it usually asks me if I want to go home or ADW Launcher(The launcher I chose). Now it stays on the original Nook screen and randomly opens up different books on its own and flips pages on its own. Also, the option to open up ADW is gone. if I hit the N button it just opens up whatever book I was reading last. I turned the device and back on but it acts the same way. Can anyone help me?
I'm not sure what you mean by 'dual booted'. With CM7?
Similar behavior to what you describe (things opening randomly, pages flipping, etc.) usually happens when the battery is very low. I've also seen it happen trying to use USB power adapters that don't really work correctly for the NT. Make sure you're not operating on a very low charge or other power issue.
I used Indirect's Root. I was able to keep the original Nook look as well as boot into another launcher. It was working fine until yesterday. Now the Home button doesn't do what it should but the main thing is that the screen types and writes all on its own. I heard about the low power setting issues with some people. My Nook was at 60% so I don't know if that's considered low enough to be under that umbrella

I can't help you with your problem, but I want to make things clear.
You don't have dual boot or anything like that, you just installed alternative launcher application.
In general you have the same stock firmware you had before rooting with addition of a few apps, allowing you to do more, than B&N wants you to be able to do.

This is correct.
Disclaimer: I am a noob. Please take the following suggestions with a grain of salt.
Perhaps, clearing the homecatcher defaults will clear things up?
Alternatively, you could try installing a different launcher, such as golauncher, and see if it behaves as strangely as your current configuration.

Well I would just install another launcher but the problem is that I can't access the other launcher any longer. The Home button doesn't work like its supposed to but instead opens up the Nook's Book Library. The whole thing just started acting weird and randomly the keyboard would pop up and write by itself in addition to opening and closes the book Library. Its been acting like it has a virus. I factory reset it but unfortunately it didnt help. So I figure my screen is faulty

I got the same few hours after I rooted but using go launcher, just clean your screan very very clean if you haven't put a screen protector on it, then make sure its charged. Now try to open anything in that you could find a link click on it so it opens the browser then go to the android.market.com and download another launcher. After that I took my tablet and removed all the B&N crap apps, ijust left the games. Don't forget to apply the OTA block again.
Advice: remove home catcher.
PS: you could also use adb to push a new launcher but as you factory reseted usb debugging must be disabled, you need can enable it again by downloading tgps_launcher.apk from indirects root thread using the Nook browser.

Have you tried going in to manage apps and deselect the default for ADW, B&N's Home Launcher and Homecatcher if your using it? I use button savior so I have software buttons rather than the n button. by deselecting the default launcher you should get a window again asking which launcher do you want to use as home.
Here in favor for ASUS to update ICS on the Prime to include a restart button say "I"
This tablet needs a restart option, not just a turn off option. I am constantly having to restart my tablet due to apps that won't free up components or services that fail after they've been used.
Google, ASUS, you already know Microsoft is going to have this available for Windows 8.
Why not get the jump ahead of them and put out an update that add more common computer functions to these tablets which are after all computers. But right now they feel like crippled computers.
Google, there's no reason why you offer free phone calls from Gmail phone for Windows based PC browsers, but don't offer it on the Android browsers, your own child. What a shame. Am I the only one recognizing this whole in thinking?

Exactly!!!!!
be warey of the restart apps, there have been some reports that they do not fully "off" the prime. If you do any hardcore changes you are still best to fully turn off the prime, count to 5, and start er up again.
Be warned!
LOL, is that anything like, "say aye".
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Right about now Asus is in talks with StaplesUSA, they want their EASY button....lol
Aye! Yaar me hearties! Aye be waiting fer a reboot button!
I fully agree, I wish there was a restart button.
BUT, the problem I'm assuming is that it would imply that the system isn't reliable and may need be restarted sometimes. Just a wild guess.
I'd love to see this function implemented in stock rom. Just place it in the "hold power button" menu next to the shut down option.
+1
Asus go ask Archos how to do it.
buy yea seriously it's not anything hard to implement yourself and anyways how hard is it to turn it off wait 3 seconds and hit it again
Can't you just hold down the power button for a few seconds? That's what I always do.
guys I'm not asking for Prime to part the red sea, I'm just wanting their to be a simple computer function like a restart option, due to frequency I'm experiencing of having to shut the damn thing off and turn it back on to get certain components to work i.e. camera after it fails between use from programs.
If Windows and Apple's iOS have a simple restart option, why would this be a pain to ask from Google.

There's already one on the TFP. It's called the "reset button".
All you need is a pin to push it.
Personally, I think that if you are having to reset your TFP that much, it's either defective or you are running bad software on it.

The Prime already has a Restart option...that's what the random reboots are for. Duh!
***** please yo folks! I am on the latest update and the uptime is 47 hours. I believe I restarted my prime while I was trying to root it. By looking at the logs on my computer, I did the rooting 47 hours 9 minutes ago, since the time of this posting...
No random reboots here!
I'll keep an eye on it though.
I just open terminal emulator.....(rooted)
su
reboot
that's funny because iOS dosen't have a restart option and it takes more work to turn it off at that even though it's not really hard i'm not sure if windows phone has a restart though.
I have a stock, unrooted Prime, on the current firmware (.21). Occasionally it will display this peculiar screen glitch - it reminds me of video card overheating symptoms I've seen on a few laptop monitors. The main artifacts show on the left hand side of the screen, as well as home screen icons and home bar jumping up and down a few pixels. It shows up in both applications and on the home screen. The issue is not dependent on the dock being connected - I tested with and without it. I have searched this forum as well as other sites, and have not seen anything similar.
Today I managed to take a few videos and have posted one on youtube. The link is
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD6CbK6KL4Q
Has anybody encountered this problem before? Or have any suggestions?
Thanks
I've had that happen before on one of my primes, it was fixed by a quick reboot. For me it happened in the youtube app, so I also cleared the app's cache just to be sure, hasn't happened since.
I really don't mean to be a whinny *****.... but dude, there are enough threads about this exact same problem in the forums already. You really should have searched before creating another one.

Like I said in the OP, I did search on this forum as well as others, and have not seen anything similar. There are many reports of a tearing while opening/closing apps from the previously opened list, as well as horizontal banding across the whole screen. Also, the posts I could find were from people on previous firmware versions, who reported their issues disappearing after updating to the latest (.21).
For those two reasons (unique symptoms, and firmware), I considered this a potentially new problem, and created this question thread.
Feel free to link to similar threads you have found though. It could help me and others.

Interesting. (You have multiple primes?)
The first time this happened to mine, I had not used youtube at all. But since then, watching youtube videos has been the most consistent trigger to get the problem to occur.
The most recent time it happened, I noticed that the flickering stopped while I had my finger on the screen. (Conductive problem with video chip??)
I had this happen to me also with the camera application. I powered it off and back on again and it cleared it.
I have had this happen before. Mine looks worst though and the whole screen actually changes color, sometimes inverted color. Luckily it only happens when I connect to my HDtv through HDMI and doesnt appear like that on my TV. Usually clears itself without a reboot when I touch the screen or disconnect the Prime from the TV.

This is the issue I have when the screen is allowed to fall asleep while watching video (YouTube included). Open a YouTube video full screen, pause it, let the screen go black and lock. Now when you turn the screen back on see if the issue happens on the lock screen

Looks great so far. The Home launcher is much more responsive so I can do away with ADW EX for now.
Kind of wish there were more small apps, but browser, calculator and IR remote are great choices for those and they work terrifically.
What do you guys think so far?

Uninstall from settings and go in as market... That fixed it for me...
The tablet was initially very laggy after the update but a reboot seemed to fix things, with the exception of the notification menu. It stutters very noticeably and is extremely annoying. Many apps also don't rotate properly anymore.
Still better than Honeycomb despiute those drawbacks.

DAMN YOU SONY!!!
Things i hate:
- this annoying wifi keepalive issue is still there!!! there is no way to keep wifi active during standby -.- damned why don't they let us users the choice... there IS an option to set the standby behavior but its still completely useless....
- sometimes there are widget issues (doesn't matter if 3rd party or preinstalled) that widgets change into editor mode when just pressing a button like update... changing screen ang going back will fix this temporarily... had this 2 times now...
- auto brigtness issue still not resolved... in low light the screen is MUCH too dark and when changing from full brightess to automatic it keeps full for a while and then goes down to min
- homescreen lag is still too much in portrait
- forced portrait is still not changable (damn i'm righthanded and want to hold it on the ROUND side when portrait is forced!!!!)
- the new ICS launcher... Sonys previous own launcher had a better overview with the sorting possibilities but ok we can have folders now...
- still no thumb keyboard -.-
things i like:
- media from SD card is now directly available and nut just for transfer... finally i have enough memory also without root and mounting stuff ^^
- the new mini-apps are nice but there is still much potential for more apps
- the new version of "Favorites" App is very nice animated and faster
- ICS possibility to deactivate system apps that are not removable... finally i get this google music player away
- a few other ICS related things...
ALL IN ALL this update is a big disappointement... they updated to ICS, integrated one or thwo new features and that's it??? all the big issues are still there since more than six months!!!!!
I have personally had a fantastic experience with the ICS update. Everything seems faster across the board. Menus more responsive, faster browser, better keyboard response/feedback. I also like the ICS look and feel and the mini apps. Really happy with the update so far.
I used to be able to DL directly to my SD Card, and using ES File Manager to move files around. Now it refuses to do so. Anyone else having this issue? If not, what file manager are you using?
My tablet seems to have gone really slow after the ICS update.
I tried a factory restore to ensure that I didnt have too many things installed and decided to start afresh. Didnt help. The tablet is still very slow. While the touch is responsive and I like the features of ICS like slide to dismiss, reading files directly from SD card etc, I definitely donot like the amount of lag I am noticing.
All my apps seem to be really really slow.
My Honeycomb seemed to be far more faster irrespective of all the issues that it had.
Any suggestions anyone?? I am on non rooted US version 16Gb Wifi.

The problem with that app from the market is that it keeps the device awake when you turn off the screen, and it eats through the battery.
On the Android phones I've used (Legend, Desire, Arc S), the WiFi remained connected, but the phone also went to sleep, battery drain was minimal.
This is the behaviour we were expecting to see in the ICS update, but unfortunately it hasn't been fixed...

Had this phone for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I just have one problem with it.
In the stock messaging app, Kik, and a couple of other apps, my keyboard will occasionally freeze. Android keyboard, LG keyboard, Swype... They all do it.
But I can still type on it, it just won't show me a "live-shot" of what I'm typing. When I press the back button(hides keyboard), all the text that I typed would show up. For example, if I type/swype "I like cake", it won't show anything in the text field until I hide/exit out of the keyboard. Then it all the text shows up at once.
I've tried everything I know of. I've done a factory reset on the phone, I've disabled keyboards, I've uninstalled apps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! This isn't a huge pain because a restart temporarily fixes it, and this phone only takes like 45 seconds to reboot. It's just annoying since it happens several times a day.

this is strange I have had no issues regarding this whether I was stock or otherwise. If you got it from best buy take it back and get another, I have gone through 3 LGOG until I found one that didnt have strange issues. But I also got mine early. Maybe some of the senior members have had this issue. Good Luck
Thanks for the replies. I'm not rooted and I've installed all the updates they've sent out so far. I've looked online and I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem...
I got it from AT&T(They matched Best Buy's price for me!) and I have to go there in about a week to get a credit on my bill, so I'll just ask them to try to figure out what's going on.

I fixed it. Apparently one of the few apps that I did not uninstall was causing the problem. Tesla LED(Flashlight app) was causing the keyboard to freeze. I have no idea why... That app has nothing to do with the keyboard. But I uninstalled it, installed another flashlight app and haven't had a problem since Tuesday night.

Hahaha, no problem, man! I installed Tiny Flashlight + LED and added the widget to my home screen. So now all I need to do is tap the widget and the flashlight turns on.
Ya, so I havent downloaded any flashlight app, yet fairly frequently, in messaging, web browsing, and the like, my keyboard stops displaying input (sometimes even gestures in web browsing, such as swiping to move around the screen freeze too). The words and other things i change, such as where in a web page it is focused does take effect after hitting the menu key on the phone. Typing also seems to work regularly in landscape, but im not used to turning it every time i type and id rather not get used to it. It happens with the Android keyboard as well as the LG one, and might be related to the similiar freezing the google voice and swype brought, but im fairly positive i completely uninstalled those, so idk...

Hey guys I just notice this as well fresh from the att store, although I've only seen it only once. So I'm 100% sure it's not due to rooting/bootloader unlocked. My suspicion is some sort of memory leak in the LG keyboard service (it's loaded as well even though you're using android OS). I clear both keyboard data and reboot, never happened anymore since then.
