Default Freezing when unplugging charger

This has been happening to me more and more lately.
In the morning I grab my Iconia and take it off charge and the device freezes on the lock screen. I have to hold down the power button to turn it off and then turn it on again. It's happened 3 of the last 4 days. It never happened before the OTA update either. Sometimes it freezes with the screen on and when I next go to use it the battery has taken a hit. Today it froze but if I pressed the power button it asked if i wanted to shut down, but the touchscreen was unresponsive. Is anyone else getting this?

This has happened to me a lot, too. I have rooted the device and changed the wpa_supplicant file, but that is all. I'm considering returning it because my first experience with android is proving to be a major disappoitment.

just letting you know that this bug has nothing to do with you plug/unplug the charger...etc

it happened when the device is left in standby for a long time...

only some reported it... some do not have this bug...etc ( with so many different build # out there... can't really troubleshoot since people are allover the map with different build # )

things might iron out with new updates...etc

one of the "workaround" I heard/read was to disable the screen lock/password ...etc

worth a shot

Having this issue myself. I feel it's also just coincidence with the charging, it's likely just after the device being in stand by for so long.

Some times it'll turn on for a minute, then if I don't touch the screen for about 30 seconds it freezes and won't respond.

This issue didn't start until after the update.

This happens to me too

In fact every morning now since the update.

I plug it in when i go to sleep and in the morning i unplug it, unlock it and open an app and it freezes. Today i read an email in k9 and then opened tapatalk and it froze.

But i just got that problem in the morning, never had it during the day.

I've had the same issue since and OTA update at the end of last week. I can't find any consistency in when it does it though.

Ever since the update i had from 1.104 - 1.139.05_com_gen1 if i leave the tablet in standby by the morning it will not wake from sleep.

Not a real issue as i just power down instead of sleep now but an irritation caused by the update.

DONATE TO ME
Well guys I had the issue before the update when I was on 1.104.05_com_gen1. Now I'm on 1.141.07 issue is still there but a quick reboot fixes it for the day. I would just say give Acer time and hey you have a 1yr mfg. If they don't fix it in the original builds exchange it down the road for a newer one.

Come'on Acer, this is a issue that should have been fixed before releasing the tablet.
I for one will never buy an Acer again, but hey, we all make mistakes.

Default For an additional data point

I also have this issue and it happened for me both before and after the OTA update. If this doesn't get fixed soon by Acer, I'm going to be massively pissed off since I'm beyond the time where I can return it
