Hi,
First of all I dont use the tablet since January 2018 because of a broken screen, some days ago I just get the screen replacement, works fine and I update the tablet, all the software is the original, I dont have it rooted.
Tonight I use the tablet till 2% battery level and turned it off, today I connected it to the charger and almost immediately a firmware update appeared, image attached. It has been on that screen for about an hour and nothing has moved, is this normal? and if not what should I do?
Any ideas?

Good evening,
I finally got my Transformer this afternoon and I have been playing around all the time. I didn't connect the dock until a few minutes ago and as soon as I did, everything worked fine instantly. Then a firmware update popped up. I thought yeah, why not?
The update failed which I thought was due to a bad Wi-Fi connection. Anyhow, I thought it wasn't a serious issue and that I could retry the update. But I can't. My Transformer won't recognize the dock anymore
What shall I do?
EDIT: Issue is resolved, exact reason unknown. Just let the dock fully charge and connect it without Wi-Fi before doing the update.
It happened to me as well. As soon as I connected my eee pad to the dock it would prompt me to do an update which would fail and freeze the dock. The caps lock light would start blinking and the only way to unfreeze it was to let the battery drain. Unfortunately there is no fix for this issue and I end up sending the dock to ASUS for repair. If there is a chance for you to exchange it do so ASAP. Good luck.

Thank you for this information. What a shame. I have the exact same symptoms, especially the capslock blinking which I googled for before posting here.
It worked again before, even though the dock's battery wasn't empty. I will try it later again. If it doesn't work I'll contact Asus.
Early adopters have these issues. Well, as long as the tablet part works, I'll be okay.

I wonder if these dock firmware failures occur when the dock battery is too low?
Pretty sure my dock firmware update notification did not then trigger a download, I think this had already arrived with prior FOTA update, and the dock fimware update was triggered when first docked. I did charge the dock fully before docking the first time.

I was charging the dock for like 2 hours before I connected it. You think that wasn't enough? I'm going to charge it over night and then try again.

Well, I didn't want to wait and as soon as I got the green light on the dock for being fully charged, I disabled my tablet's Wi-Fi and reconnected both. Then I could use my keyboard and mouse, which were slightly laggy at that point.
After a few minutes I re-enabled Wi-Fi and let it download the firmware update and install it without any trouble. Now everything works very smooth. A happy ending after all; typing this using my Transfomer yay!
Can somebody confirm their MobileDock version for me because I've only had one update to 3.1 (Build Number 8.4.4.5; MobileDock EP101-0209) and apparently there are no new updates when I check, but when I updated it the tablet wasn't connected to the dock.
When you do an update, it also downloads the update for the dock even if it is not connected. The next time you connect the dock, it will prompt you that there is an update for the dock which you can install.
Edit: Issue is resolved. The battery had to completely drain and no longer charge the tablet, and then further drain so the white caps lock light would stop blinking. Once the white light stopped blinking, the tablet recognized it again, and the firmware update was available and worked successfully.
Hi,
Has anyone else had this happen lately and have a working fix?
I just did the most recent OTA update and then it prompted to do the mobile dock update. I accepted, but the wifi wasn't working properly and it stalled.
I went to re-connect to the internet and I wasn't thinking and unplugged the dock to get the on screen keyboard working again and when I reconnected it tried to update again. It came back saying Mobile Dock update Failed, and the keyboard hasn't worked since. The Caps Lock key is currently flashing.
The only thing that works is the dock will charge the tablet. I tried draining the dock battery just now and its as far as it will go, but it still won't recognize it when I connect it back. For now I'll try re-charging the dock, but I get no indiciation that the charging is working on the dock when I plug it in.
Is there a way to manually re-update the dock with the microSD card? I try to do the system update and it says there isn't anything to do. Does anyone think installing Prime would resolve this, and then I could go back to normal 3.2?
Edit: So I just left the dock "Charging" for awhile, and now it won't charge the tablet at all. This leads me to believe that the dock won't charge anymore. I can still charge the tablet via the dock when its connected to the AC outlet. The white light is still flashing...
Thanks!
Hi all
I just got this brand new 10.1 32GB a few days ago and it was working fine. Yestreday, battery was low and I let it charge over night. In the morning the screen was showing what looked like a OTA update in progress and I let it run (was still charging).
Later when I came back, screen was black and wont turn on again. No reaction at all to whatever I do. Just a black screen.
(shipping back to Samsung is not as easy since I'm not in the U.S. where I've imported it from)
Please help!

Well, it seems there were several factors:
I've used a USB charger with max. 1A, whereas the 10.1 needs 2A. This prevented proper charging. At the same time some OTA activity was going on ("downloading") which probably drained the rest of the power.
So, after some good charging, it started up again and all is fine now.
can you tell what the OTA updates were?
There were no OTA updates for the retail Tab. The OP put his device into Odin download mode without realizing it. Nothing to see here.
Try this...
To get into safe mode keep the [down-volume] key down while booting ie when you see the first Galaxy tab 10.1 flash screen.
to get back to normal mode, simply reboot.
Agree, this must have been the case. While charging, I've put the device upside down on the floor while halfway hanging on the USB cable. This must have pressed some buttons..
Hi all of you!
I didn't charge the dock over a week or more (maybe 10 days), just use it with the tablet from time to time and see only normal blinking red(not fast blinking like some said if battery is very low).
Last night the tablet charged up to 100% with no issues, however 12 hours later I have a keyboard dock with a constant blinking orange LED that will not charge. I tried charging it with the tablet attached and without - no change. The adapter doesn't even heat up when trying to charge the dock which again tells me that something in the battery on the dock is not accepting the charge.
Pls tell me what to do?
My friend bring me this bundle from London(Comet) but I live in Bulgaria.... and just don't know what I have to do..
P.S Hmm something interesting-after I received the 3.1 FOTA update on 03.06.2011, I successfully update the tablet and after that dock-station with 0209, but I received another update 0209....maybe a week ago and update it again-it comes again successful and that's all ..hmm don't understand nothing
Hi guys ;
First let me say that i am sorry if there is another same topic,let i explain my problem,i bought LG G2 16GB international unlocked model,two months ago all was working completly fine for the past two months,last night my phone was at 2% battery life,while i went to get to the charger phone turned off(well i guess it drained the 2% fast since wifi and one game was working) i came back and pluged the charger in to the phone everything looked normal it was charging when it was 100% i unpluged it,after that for a minute or two when i started using it,it became extremly slowly,screen was totally unresponsive i was trying to unlock it with knock on all i was seeing is the LED notification light flash but display was not turning on,then after 3-4 attempts it turn on but then it become again "dead" then it unlock phone automatically and when i tap on the screen it should display the front unlock screen so when i swipe that it unlocks the device,but for me it was completly diffrent first it unlock the device and then for 3-4 seconds later display the unlock screen,but also after an hour or two after charging phone works fine no problem everything is good,but when i put it to charge it get really hot,not on the battery but on the top of the phone around camera,volume up/down,and lock keys,i don't know could KitKat cause this issues because phone is currently running KitKat? i think its hardwere issues connected something maybe either with the charger itself or some part at the top of phone maybe that is causing screen to go buggy ?so i'm still confused to send the phone to repair since i have warranty for two years or maybe its software problem that why i am asking,but i don't think it's software since KitKat was working for a month and didn't cause this problem,i mean it's not the problem to use the phone after it gets normal after charging,but i don't want every time to wait and waste an hour or two for letting phone getting back to normal.
Thanks for the help,and sorry for huge message.
Hi. Last year I left my G2, and the screen broke, but everything worked fine. Recently, my new screen came from AliExpress. When I charge, the phone does not work anymore. Sometimes when I plug in USB or charger, it automatically goes to the firmware update screen. If I remove the cable and turn it back on, nothing happens, and if I leave it for about two hours, the cycle occurs again, ie it turns on and automatically goes to the firmware update screen. I do not know what to do, I tried to flash the ROM stock, but nothing has changed.
I do not know what to do.
Thanks.
