Soo ever since friday my tab has been going wild..

Itll just randomly become unresponsive and then reboot.

It started once i hooked it up to charge on a ferry... which makes me worry. however, i do have chrome on it. I figured after it came out of beta itd be fine, and its run fairly well up until recently.

Im stock rooted, running latest ota. Locked boot loader... though I tried to unlock before, but since im a c4okct there was a time where my sn wasnt recorded, and that's when I attempted to unlock.

Now, im worried that my tab is possibly fried, and im stuck without warrenty.

Does anyone have any ideas either way?

Thank you in advance and sorry for the rambling, i just tried to cover all the bases.


Ps - isnt ics supposed to be built off 3.0 kernel? I just noticed that this tab apparently is built on 2.6

Update - did a factory restore. Well see how it affects anything.

Soo, things seem to work better now...

But, i cant get trebuchet back the way I wanted it.i tried to rip it out of the latest cm9 nightly, but i cant access the settings like i used to be able to.

Sick Transformer Pad TF 300T

Over the past several weeks my Pad would randomly decide the touch screen will no work forcing a paper clip restart. Tonight it has decided it will not recognize either battery is charged and will not see the once in the dock. Do I have a Lemon?

I did a factory reset, and all seems well so far.

Just hate the stock launcher, and I can't get trebuchet to work just right anymore.

Not yet... then again, I haven't installed really any root programs, no ezoverclock... no CPU sleeper, nothing really....

Hell I haven't even set my email up on it yet

When I reset my tab it at first works well. Then as it goes on it just goes to hell. Its main problem is graphicly demanding things, like gmail animations make it crash, and so does Google Music. Google Play store also is pretty laggish (I notice a trend with google products). I want to unlock it and install CM to see if it fixes anything, but I'm worried about losing warranty. Any thoughts?

Well, that doesn't sound like normal behaviour.

My tab too now resets it's self, and I have the issue of power off selection appearing on screen. Also, any pressure on the top left of the screen causes a reboot. Bought from eBay a month ago. US tab in the UK, i bet asus won't help me! Fault stared this week. Not built to last!

Tried reset but still have the issue. The power off icon randomly pops up and then it reboots. 3 times today so far. Followed the guide in this thread and hope it's fixed with updated firmware. Regret buying now, dull screen with horrible bleed, poor io performance, and reboots make it super unreliable.
