Does anyone know of a plug for the hdmi port on the tf101. Something like a piece of plastic that would keep dirt out of the hdmi port
modDIY.com has all sorts of protective covers including a mini-hdmi cover
there's one site, which I can't find right now, that had colored micro-usb and headphone covers (didn't check if they had mini-hdmi covers).
thanks for the info will check it out

The little plastic cover over the USB port on the dock - has anyone have problems w/ it? It comes out only partially and it is very hard to insert the USB connector. It feels like the plastic part will snap off eventually from use...

Yeah, It's annoying. But it's just a dustshield. I have the same problem on the Slate too, but even worse.
hi,
i lost my rubber plug that covers the external antenna port right under the kick stand.
does anyone know where i can get the replacement plug?
thanks.
could you find a broken thunderbolt on ebay and salvage the part from there?
I've been meaning to put this up here for a while, it's nothing special really just thought it'd be nice to share.
Basically all I did was open up a USB cable I bought off of amazon and added a resistor (and then later added a jumper).
The cables I purchased are legit data/charging OEM Samsung "U2" cables (the shorter 3ft long cables).
After doing my best to keep the original plastic housing intact while removing it, I then soldered some solid copper wire to the ID and GND connections.
(I used some of the internal copper wires from some cat5e cabling I had lying around.)
I then soldered a resistor between the two wires, carved out some space in the plastic housing for the new wires, snapped the plastic housing back on and applied some heat-shrink tubing to seal it all up.
This proved to be a bad idea.
Having the resistor always attached rendered the cable useless for anything but Download Mode (adb will not function with the resistor attached).
So I fixed that issue by adding a jumper to the resistor.
This allows to force Download Mode with the jumper on, as well as normal USB functionality with the jumper off.
So there you have it... my custom DL mode cable.
I went ahead and made an imgur album that has a few more pics.

I used some BBCode "hide" tags to hide the excessively large pictures.

THATS awesome! Legit, really cool!
Very nice!
I've been using a motorola data/charging cable Model:SKN5004A for all of my adb/download mode/everything else. It works great.

I have 3 xperia plays all seem to have the same problem with the flex ribbon cable being broken, I fixed one and added some sticktape to the cable where it wears against the case on the slide part. I dont think this was the best idea tho, the slide is now not as smooth and im thinking the tape will wear throught and become tacky.
Does anyone know of any good thin protective tape or similar for this ribbon cable? Im putting this in general because Im sure there some other slide phones which might have this problem, or a solution.
What holds the USB-C cable end in the phone port without falling out?
My phone port suddenly "changed" (probably damaged but I don't yet know how or why) such that, all of a sudden, every USB-C cable (even brand new USB-C cables which work in other phones) won't "click and stick".
But when I look with a magnifying glass, I can't see anything wrong.
Not dust.
Not bent tabs.
Not a crooked rounded-rectangular enclosure.
Nothing seems wrong (before and after I tried to clean it out with a plastic toothpick and a blast of canned air).
The USB-C cable plug end won't "click & stick" in the phone opening unless I rubber band it (and then it charges the phone without falling out).
What should I look for that holds the USB-C cable end in the phone port?
Is it a friction fit only?
Is there a latch mechanism?
Did I break some secret tiny tab off somewhere?
Surprisingly, good images on the Internet for a closeup of the latch mechanism don't seem to exist. Drawings exist but they don't clearly show the latching mechanism well enough for me to know what to look for to see what must be broken.
Drawings and photos exist of the USB-C port in the phone, but NONE seem to be closeups of the latch mechanism. Is there a latch mechanism?
If not, how does it "click & stick" then?
What is it that makes the USB-C plug "click & stick" inside the phone port?
