Has this ever been solved? It seems to do it under 20 percent and anything slightly intense is going on line a game or video... Thought it was stock so reflashed image, thought it was stock so tried android n, thought it could be solved but dirty unicorn didn't work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated I hate only getting to use 50 percent of my tablets life before the slow charge back up to 100

There are a bunch of other threads here about this issue, as well as in the Nexus help forums. This is a hardware failure and the only fix is a new motherboard or a new tablet. Don't waste your time trying to fix it through software.

Thanks I'll wait till the nexus tablet comes out then get that one then.
The help forum had a new suggestion. Take off the back, unplug the battery, plug it back in again (I cleaned the connectors with alcohol as well). As long as you're careful not to detach the camera it's an easy job - use a guitar plectrum to ease the back off... I've drained the battery completely for 3 days without a reoccurrence. It's probably not fixed - but it hasn't happened again yet.

A few people over in the Nexus help forum who were out of warranty have had luck with this fix as well. One guy reported no issues after two months and discharging the tablet to 0% multiple times.

My prime reboots at least 3 or 4 times a day, whether it's browsing the web, using google maps, or using any of the other apps. It stalls, then restarts. It's running ICS.
I really like the Prime, had no defects, but I'm going to have to return it because this is totally unacceptable. Is anyone else having this issue?

So after using it for a couple of hours, I'm still getting multiple random restarts with the latest update I'll do a factory reset anyway before I bring it back, but quite honestly why should I have to my spend time trying to work out what works and what doesn't? if I can't use the device for its intended purpose, I can't see any sense in keeping it.
It's really a shame, I wanted to like the TP, on paper it has everything I was looking for in a tablet. The reality though is it doesn't live up to expectations. Random restarts are just not acceptable when you're trying to compete with the iPad, it's not good enough.
I was in the same boat and the update yesterday did not help.
There's another update floating around that was sent out by an Asus tech to try out. I installed that one last night, too and have not had any problems since then.
I think the light is at the end of the tunnel!
Why create a new thread for a subject that has an Official ASUS thread at the very top of this General forum.

Which update?
@Mods, last post
I got a new transformer prime a couple of days ago, and I'm happy to report it has no wifi, GPS or Bluetooth issues
but it has a 3 stuck pixels in a 1.5cm area, which is covered under warranty, atleast as I understand
My thing is I wanna keep it. Is there anyway to 'wake them up' like you could with iOS products thru a cydia app
Thanks in advance
EDIT REASON: oops! I originally called the pixels dead. Thanks for getting me to notice that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
Nope, you can't raise pixels from the dead.
If you don't believe me, you can try a pixel fixing app (like this one: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.htc.chris.blackspotdetect&feature=search_result) and see if it helps you, however if your pixel is actually dead (and not just stuck) there likely isn't any software that will fix it.

Some people say these apps work ad other say it doesn't fix their issue.
If you have an hour or two to spend trying to fix it, I would say it couldn't hurt anything to try. If it doesn't work then you should still be able to go the RMA route.

hey, just wondering what happened? did you RMA?
I bought a used transformer, and it has light bleed, and at least 8 stuck pixels [mostly only viewable on Black] scattered around, some smaller, some bigger.
can I RMA it? I'm not even sure about the warranty but I assume it's been less than a year from the original purchase..
Here's an interesting thing. I am on my third note with the other two being replaced due to screen and USB plug issues respectively. I get my new note and it is remarkably better. The GPS works where it couldn't even lock before and the phone itself is sooo smooth. It this how it was supposed to work the whole time?
Did you find the coffee and bacon making feature yet? I hope your replacement is fully functioning.

Sent my Note in a week before my warranty was up to have the screen fixed. Now the screen is much better than it ever was before. The screen was great before but it is noticeably sharper and brighter. My buttons are also super bright now. I think the screen has to be a hardware upgrade that could only be in a new Note or replacement screen.

Yes ....but with a one time, $36.00 upgrade charge.
I've been a customer with them for nearly 15 years, since the early days and I also hold a level one business account.
So results for others will likely not be the same.
I've got 11 contracted devices in service with ATT, for my employees.
Having device replacements coming is much easier under those conditions.
They also let me keep the new device, and the tech told me to sell it for parts or repair the button and sell a new working device.
I've got a new power button coming Monday, and a shop I use regularly that will fix it for me too sell.
All together I'm placing 5 devices and their cases, chargers and packaging up for sale this week as I'm getting ready for the move into the note 2 this Tuesday.
I'm planning to stay around the note 1 section for a while, as we have many new users needing help from those of us who have been around this device for a while.
And I've also got duties to perform with the super thread and our Korean note users needing a section built inside the super thread space.....g
My phone has been over heating. A LOT. Even with basic use. No gaming or anything. Anyone experience this? I called tech and they were no help. Told me to run in safe mode and remove my SD card..... Ya that won't work for me.

I haven't had any issues like that. Only over heading I experienced were while using car navigation while wireless charging. You can try shopping cache plus restart to see if something is stuck, or if you have a new installation freeze that and see if things get better.
Another thing to look at is detailed battery use, see if there is any surprises. Many times the app that causes heating will also cause faster battery drain. If you can't find the app then full wipe may be needed.
Edit: one other question, did you change case recently? some cases don't transfer heat as well.
I did. A lot. Got to the point that I could take one picture and the camera would shut off because it was over heating. Hard reset didn't fix anything. I also had wireless problems (wifi would never stay off, airplane mode didn't work), and battery life was pretty poor (coming from Note 2). Replacement phone seems much better on all counts.
Thanks for the info guys. No case on the phone. Still working on rooting and playing with Xposed.... Maybe something there will help.... Or just have Verizon send a new one. I really do love this phone... So hopefully I can resolve this.... Maybe lollipop will help... If we ever get it....

So had Verizon send me a new phone..... Have had it a day and a half and have already seen signs of over heating...... Granted it's close to 100 outside..... But I've been in the car with AC using GPS and it was getting really warm. I've had SEVERAL other phones with the same or more heavy usage with no over heating issues......
Not sure what to do. If it keeps up I'm going to have to consider a new phone....
Anyone know of any risks using the phone when it's over heating??? It's not going to explode or catch fire is it???

I get same error intermittently on my Pixel XL right now, so it's not 6p-specific.
Does anyone know if any of the pixel mods work on the beta?
I extracted the boot and modified it with dm-verity and force encryption disabled. But now I'm not sure how to test, I would need the images and not the update zip to fastboot flash the rest of update Images. I guess one would just update then fastboot flash boot. Or does google post preview images elsewhere? My work pc has fastboot setup and I'll update then test and report back. If anyone wants to try it here's the link.

the problem is the battery, early battery degradation, they could mitigate this issue on the software side but it won't stop completely and the battery will keep getting worse.
I changed mine and no more shutdown and 2x more battery life.
and the reason why you only have this issue half the time is because if you use certains apps that use high voltage, it will trigger the shutdown (launching the the camera and taking picture is the easiest way to do it)

I and my wife both had the early shutdown problems on our phones - she's on an iPhone6 and I'm on the 6p. I got an RMA phone, and no more problems (exactly the same software setup). I don't think it's a software problem, and highly suspect planned obsolescence where the batteries are designed to have cells have a life of around 18 months or so. One of the cells in the battery dies, and so the voltage drops off way fast once the remaining good cells discharge and the phone battery meter can't figure out what's going on. I'd bet a box of doughnuts that no software change is going to fix the actual problem. I have no proof of that, just skeptical observation.
If I were a black helicopter & tin foil hat person, I'd even have a hint of wonder if that's what happened to the Explod-a-Note. Maybe the manufacturers were pushing the envelope of how little past the warranty date they could get the (non-replaceable) batteries to die. AFAIK, battery tech isn't much more compact / more mAH in recent years, so just makes me wonder...
