Maybe I am Google searching in the wrong places, but so far I have not found a Chinese - for example, Xinhua - report of the final undocking of Tianzhou 1 from Tiangong 2.

Thank you! The report is confusing, although that might be because of Google Translate. The translation is giving the undocking time at 17:15 - presumably Beijing Time which is reasonable - but then appears to say that the command for the undocking was transmitted at 17:29. Or maybe the latter time is the start of the procedures to "park" Tianzhou 120 metres from Tiangong?

That's 15:29 not 17:29, and undocking at 16:15

No solid information so for, depending on uncertain CSS(Tianhe) schedule. If CSS delaying too much, Shenzhou-12 will dock to Tiangong-2 instead in my bad memory

OK ..... Google Translate says:
"At 17:15 on September 17th, after nearly five months of flight, the day boat cargo spacecraft planned to complete separation with the Temple II space laboratory, continue to carry out the expansion before the application and related tests.
"At 17:29 on September 17, the ground to send instructions, the day on the 1st cargo spacecraft and Temple II space laboratory implementation of the separation. According to the procedure, the day boat is separated to the rear 120 meters and the position is maintained, the ground confirms the normal state, the order controls the normal evacuation of the sun on the 1st, the sun on the 1st to establish a three-axis stability to ground flight attitude, at a height of about 400 km Of the near-round track began to run independently."

Looks like Google translator has a bug when the sentence is a mix of date and time
Your can try to use Microsoft Bing translator next time

In view of the online translation problems, can a Chinese speaker please confirm whether the 250 kg of propellant said to have been transferred from Tianzhou 1 to Tiangong 2 is the amount for the third transfer or the total for all three transfers?

Tianzhou-1 has been deorbited today at "around 10:00 UTC": http://www.cmse.gov.cn/art/2017/9/22/art_19_31955.html
http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2017-09/22/c_136630237.htmBEIJING, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- China's first cargo spacecraft, Tianzhou-1, left its orbit under orders from ground control around 6 p.m. Friday.
The cargo ship twice put on the breaks, continuously lowering its altitude before burning-up in the atmosphere, all under precise control and close monitoring from the ground.
Before leaving orbit, Tianzhou-1 had completed a number of experiments, gaining important experience for the building and operating of China's space station.

Today it has been reported on the Shijian 18 thread (launch failure by the CZ-5) that its launch code was 07-03: since Tianzhou 1 was the third launch from Wenchang, I wonder what its launch code was.
921-TZ1, following the format of the codes for the two Tiangong launches??
