so I scratched the hell out of the glass somehow... apparently a small bit of ash on the table was all it took... So my question is: Has anybody successfully obtained a new glass from Asus?
Not sure if it's also call "touchpad" but try here.
Maybe not since it's only 11euros

i believe that part is referring to the mouse pad on the dock...

Yeah that make more sense.
There are no replacements, believe me i spent 6 to 8 hours searching yesterday, now im just selling my tablet for parts my glass was cracked. The only way is to find some one with a broken transformer with that glass still intact and buy the glass from them. Sorry to here about your transformer
possible fix?
Well how deep are these scratches?
If they are just a mess of em but not too deep you could always try an aluminum silicate compound thatcould fill in shallow scratches .. i know 3m makes some stuff as polish
The scratches aren't incredibly deep.. I set the tablet face down on a desk on top a piece of paper... I thought the paper would protect it, but there was a few specs of sand or ash or crumbs or something on there and when i picked it up I got 5 or 6 scratches in the screen. Not deep, but definitely can be seen with the screen on.
I found a product called "apple sauce polish"... http://applesaucepolish.com
anybody tried it or anything similar and care to share their experience?
I think it read wouldn't work
This compound is advised against the use of applesauce on glass. I cant really find what its made of but the site lists use mostly on plastic covers...
Uhh here look up some 3m 06070
This stuff here is pricey but it'll last forever if you're justgonnause it to fix tablet/phone scratches..
I scratched my Transformer probably the same way. I don't care about the scratches, they are barely visible, but it made me think and I'll probably won't be buying Transformer Prime - if those things are so easy to scratch it's resell value will be poor (who wants to buy a scratched one?) and my Transformer resell value just dropped significantly probably. In that case buying new tab;et every year will be too pricy for me.
PS. I wear glassess and they appear to be harder to scratch than Gorilla Glass, I've done everything to them and they don't have a single scratch.

Remember this. Your glasses are a smaller target than the tab screen.
Still. The problem is I didn't do anything to the tablet that could've caused scratching and it's scratched. I did a lot of things to the glassses that should've caused scratching yet they are still perfect. And apart from the bigger scratch which cought my attention and could've been caused by some grain of sand caught in the wrong place there is a lot of almost invisible scratches on the border of the device (outside the screen) too. So it's not a single unlucky scratch. In a few months it will probably look like my old cellphone (which was scratched not by me - I bought it that way because it's only for testing apps).
Put on a screen protector, I think it will make the scratches invisible. Matt even better.

Yes, I'm considering that now, but if it in any way affects sharpness I won't do it. The cratches are almost invisible anyway, the problem is resell value only (which already is down, haha).

Get the clear one than, you will not notice there's a SP on the screen. Problem solve and cheap
Thanks for the advices. I'll just have to read a lot about those screen protectors and test some.
Ofcos the best part is that you can remove the SP anytime. I am using one that cost less than $5 and I cannot find any quality differences on SP brands somehow. I think they are all the same at least to me, others might have different opinion.

HTC = Great quality
No real problems it's such a solid phone, so much so that developer "Blue61X" has bought two of these phones.
a few people said they had dust under there screen but i doubt you need worry, enjoy your slide, its got some real great things going for it all of a sudden the development section here has gone from ~ none to a lot of awesome ROMs.
YES THERE IS ONE THING
Open up a few different boxes and feel the keyboards. We don't have the best keyboard on a phone, they are built strong and built to last, but make sure your specific phone has a keyboard you are content with. My friend has a mt4gs and his keyboard feels better than mine.
Also I just noticed u said ur getting a mytouch 4g, don't get the mytouch 4g, get the mytouch 4g slide =)

And. Get the anker 1900 mah 2 battery set that comes with the wall charger off of amazon.
This way u can keep one charging and one being used.
The stock battery gets hot, wears out fast, and the heat is bad for your phone in general.

Great phone, keyboard, front camera, good back camera, big screen, good processor. Overall its a good phone, only complaint is the genius button. I wish it was just regular search but you can change that if you're rooted.

Thanks guys! I've had good and bad luck with HTC in the past but this phone just looks amazing all around. I am buying this phone pre owned also. If I don't feel it's right, then I definitely won't move on it but I am excited to see what it has in store! Will update after I check it out.
The only real issue is battery life. If you can afford it, buy a Mugen; otherwise, get the Anker two-pack.

Got one!!
Gotta say overall I love it. Got it brand new, about a month old, for $160.
Here's why. The screen has the oh so lovely dust particles formed under the screen coming from the bottom left and shooting to the middle of the screen.
I thought HTC learned by now?! Either way, I'm happy and in my eyes i stole it from the guy.

you may be able to get the dust removed under warranty. All 4G Slides still have factory warranty from HTC.
Just check to make sure there's no water damage and that one of the screws on the back is covered by a VOID sticker.
Send it in!

Doesn't matter if you're not the original owner. Factory warranty starts from date the phone was manufactured
And if it happens again, at least you'll have a clean phone for the time being

I know this because I just sent my phone in. Took 5 days to ship out. It's going to Texas. They turned it around on the same day. I was amazed. But they do tell you repairs can take anywhere from 6-10 days not including shipping. I'm sure they just say that to stay safe.
You have to pay for shipping though. They will not provide a label.

Awesome. I've never done warranty before so I'm all new to that. I imagine I just ring them up and go from there?
I am not the original owner of the one I sent in.
Neither of mine have the dust issue - mainly because I keep them in cases.
I attached some pictures below - they are pocket sized cases, fit with the trident case around the phone, and have pockets for accessories and batteries.
The zipper on the cases keeps the dust out, and the outer nylon shell makes it slide in and out of my pocket easily.
Notifications are not muffled by the extra layers of fabric, the sounds pierce it quite well and is no different then being in your pocket, vibration works full as well.
Just a thought - but for something this expensive and tiny, I try to take as good care of it as possible.

Heh, well, I want to carry my recovery microsd card, which has a factory restore image on it and other recovery utilities...my usb thumb drive with all of my data, recovery tools and android SDK as well as portable programs on it...then there's the retractable USB cable and cigarette lighter adapter for a car...
The only thing I can't fit in the primary case (black/grey) is an ac adapter, but the rest fits and it's nice and slim.
The other case (red/grey/black kodak) has the second device, video cable, ac adapter and the factory usb cable. It's a bit bulkier, and not my daily travel - but still fits in an upper pants pocket without trouble.
For those of you who don't like how your phone feels, but do not want a cover, here is a wonderful solution. I bought a can of "plastic dip" online and sprayed my cover. It feels wonderful. Mine looks a bit inconsistent, but if you apply the right amount of coats yours could look better. It is also very thin and removable. All you have to loose is he cost of the rattle can.

Many people have tried it, but in the end, it will start peeling off within a day or two, especially since the phone is often take in and out of pockets, where the corners of the cover is stressed, the rubber will come off. And that was after 4-5 coats.
It does feel amazing though, I just wish it lasted longer than a couple of days.
Best off would be buying a cheap but non-glossy back cover, maybe one that imitates the S4's brushed aluminum style side.
I'm very interested in this. If anyone finds a non glossy battery cover, please let me know!!!

There are plenty of those here in Hong Kong, unfortunately, those are also super slippery, and sometimes they don't even fit all that well. I wish they should just make a rubberized backing with the same grippy materials they make cases with... or I just wish plastidip would last longer...
Just get a full body skin from xtremeguard. I had one on my Note 2 and it eliminated the slippery issues.

Yes, I'm aware of that issue. But wireless charging hasn't come up to my real-life usage expectations yet..
Im really mad at this , my xperia z3 magnetic port loose after a use of 2 weeks with the charging dock , thats mean im loosing waterproof , any solid fix for that ? a glue or something ? sony doesnt respond for that kind of ''issues'' ... **** sony
Just today I started noticing issues on my magnetic connecter/port, and have started to look around. The only information I've found so far is about how Sony isn't really covering this in a manner we'd expect.
*Edit* I do see that several people seem to be gluing the port back in. Not sure if anyone has had more success with Sony or their Vendor. I may, myself, contact T-Mobile at least before I try anything myself.
Mine has been fixed under warranty by UK Sony.
Unfortunately, it came out second time as well.
The problem is the magtron x2. - DO NOT BUY THAT!
Apparently, I am looking for a glue to do the job for myself…
I could send the phone back but that would be the longest solution…

Too strong magnet
the adhesive I've seen recommended is sikaflex 291, which is on amazon - it's a marine sealant apparently
just to add that the black magnetic connectors seem so much harder to find for the Z3 than the white ones, although a german retailer called handyersatzteilshop.de seems to have them, and they ship internationally
I think this could be good for the job. What do u think?

http://fs2.directupload.net/images/user/150215/5xude3mt.jpg
seems to tick a lot of boxes, although one or two others had temperature ranges included as part of the sales pitch - I've used that stuff before for general purposes to be honest, and it's quite fluid - when the connector falls out is there any indication as to how the original glue was applied by sony, and is there much risk of the replacement glue seeping into the rest of the phone?

I'm not sure if it would but if it's liquid then it might be hard to cover all holes for water entry. I used a clay adhesive and though it was hard to apply because the area is small, it did a great job of sealing my magnetic port so that I can still have water proof on the device and the port is very strong now.

You have to mix the epoxy and apply, it's a bit thick and gooey but you can still easily get the required amount. I used a small metal tab to get my G2s LCD fixed in place, as you know the G2 has a tiny bezel, if I used too much it would have gone into the LCD layers, but I avoided that.
sisqoboy, did you manage to fit the replacement connector, and any tips?
I'm trying to attach a magnetic plate (for a vent mount) to the back of my honor 8, and this glass surface is like magic, nothing will stick to it! The double-sided tape that came with the plate held for about 5 seconds; hot-glue (my usual fool-proof solution) popped off instantly. Super-glue doesn't bond to the glass.
Has anyone found a reliable way to attach things to the back glass?
(Side note: Pretty as the glass case is, I would never buy buy a phone with it again. Too slippery and too fragile, I cracked the back glass within 2 days of getting the phone.)
Put it inside a case..... Not pretty but then again gluing something on the back isn't either.

But I wouldn't use magnets as it might mess up with the sensors. I´m just guessing here...

The plate you put under the case is just metal and the magnet is on the holder you stick in the vent of your car. Sensors seems to work without any issues.
