why does my tablet beep while it's charging and is there a way (other than decreasing the volume) to stop this?

It is not the charger. I went into settings>sound>notifications>silent. That worked for me.

From Asus forums, and a problem reported mostly by TF700 owners and also some TF300T owners. "The beep happens when the charger feeds the tablet a current or a voltage that it is not "acceptable" to it. Keep in mind, it does not mean that it will harm the tablet. A defective charger or cable will not feed the tablet the "acceptable" 15V/1.2A or 5V/2A. The difference could be a few mA but it would be enough to cause the beep. The change can be very little, but enough for the tablet to know. That is why you see cases where the tablet would make the beeping noise when it enters sleep, but charges perfectly silent when the display is on and the tablet is being used. This is not an issue that is completely new. You also see this behavior when somebody uses a cheap eBay charger, or a car charger not made to specs." http://www.transformerforums.com/forum/transformer-pad-infinity-tf700-tegra-3-help/36587-tf700-repeatedly-makes-plugged-sound-while-charging-sleep-mode.html

It beeps once when you put the device on the pad but not at any other time. What it does do is flash a green light while charging. I found that annoying while trying to sleep.

The noise is a low voltage warning, put it on the charger and it will stopI leave mine on the charger at all times to be certain it is ready to use

No annoying beeps at any point. My HTC DNA emits a tone when wireless charging begins but I'm sure I could silence that in settings if I wanted to.

First of all, make sure you have it centered on the charger properly. It is designed to fully charge and shut off. Then when the battery starts to drop, it turns on again. The annoying part of this process is the beep when it shuts off/turns on and also the screen lights up. Apparently you can turn off the beep, but it is difficult since you have to root the phone and go through a lengthy process. I charge my phone at night right next to my bed, so I mute the phone before I go to bed and I cover the screen. Also, don't be surprised or alarmed by the heat that is generated by the charging process as that is a property of induction. First of all, make sure you have it centered on the charger properly.

I've never experienced that with mine in 3 years of use. I'd suggest unplugging it, waiting a minute and plugging it back in. If the beeping continues, I'd follow Bob W's advice and contact the seller. Good luck!

The same thing happened to me and I bought a replacement charger. That worked for a while but now will no longer charge the tablet. I say return the tablet, that's what I need to do.

My phone will beep after two or three days, asking for a recharge. Lately I've been plugging it every night just to be safe. (I don't use my phone often either)

h! there is a cable hanging loose, right? try plugging it to your tablet on the side: that's all it takes! no turn on/off needed. so to not run my batteries i unplug it when not in use

That means that the charger is not putting out enough power to charge your tablet. The charger is bootleg and I would return it. I have the same charger and the same problem. I have this charger and the original charger and I don't have this problem with the other charger, the original one.

The unit needs charged. It will continue until charged. Did it come with a little red plug that you put into the alert or alarm spot on the front? If you have this, putting the plug back in should stop the charger from the high pitched noise. Let me know if this works for you.

I found that it charges via a male-to-male standard USB cable, and beeps when it's full. The indicator is counterintuitive - one light appears to mean full charge, and four lights low charge.

No. However some phones will beep when they start charging. Test your phone with a regular charger.

Plug it up to charge. You will see the back lit light comes on and the graph that shows it is charging, and it does beep. This unit will stop charging once the charge is complete. Mine took about 26 hrs. to fully charge. Try letting it charge for a few hours, could be that your unit came without any charge.

Yes. It beeps to let you know it needs charging. I cannot be sure of total charge time but it isn't long!

Mine beeps when phone is in place on it and charging. Doesn't bother me but for some folks it's a deal breaker.. I'm unaware of a silent version. Take care

Beeping when you first place your phone on the pad lets you know that it is positioned correctly and has started to charge. I believe I've also heard it beep in the middle of the night, presumably after it has fully charged, discharged one or two percent, and started to recharge again. It has never awakened me, but I've heard it a couple of times when I was already awake. I doubt that anyone would find it to be a problem.
