Very Tiny Scratch - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a very tiny scratch on my TF300 in the middle of the screen. Would a screen protector cover that?

probably not but who cares, i have a number of small scratches on my screen and you can't even see them when the screen is on.

I'm wondering if the TF300 had Gorilla Glass if this would have even happened. That is really the only thing on the TF300 that I don't like. No gorilla glass. It seems that it scratches really easy which is not a good thing at all.

you can always return the tf300 if your within return period at your store and get the tf700 if it bothers you alot.

[Q] Dust under the screen

Well, that's the moment that i ask your help cause i have a little problem with my infinity:
I bought the infinity about 1 month ago and since first day i notice a little points of dust under the screen. But nothing worrying cause i didnt saw them when screen was on. However, in the last days, there is one point of dust that is visible with white screens and i have the felling that the dust has increse. Nothing very exaggerated but still there.
My question is: What can I do? Send it to warranty or wait more time to see the developments of this problem?
Thank you
Do u have a screen protector on it? Just have to ask lol

Remove eee pad touch screen

Hello,
I recently bought an eee pad with a broken touch screen (it has a crack in it) for dirt cheap but the normal screen itself is fine. I wanted to use the eee pad as a photo frame. I wanted to permanently remove the touch screen so you can actually see the screen. Is their an easy way to do this or do all of the other components "rest" on the touch screen?
Thanks

Google is our friend.
Doesn't appear to be glued to the LCD just the mounting bracket.

Here's another XDA member replacing the screen (Not finished)

Seems like having a tablet like that just for a photo frame is overkill have you looked into just replacing the digitizer? They're about $50 on ebay.

I would go for it, if you do it would be cool if you post some pics, my tab is an out of warranty refurb I might have to replace something someday as well.

Scratch removal

I'm not sure how, but I have a few small scratches only one is visible without shinning a light on it and really only if you know where to look
Anyways has anyone had any luck removing small scratches
Maybe clear nail polish would do the trick...
Though some people have said that a screen protector makes them less visible
Thoughts?

There's some sort of streak developing on the left side of my screen.

About an inch in after the border of the tablet (left, top and bottom) there's a streak of some sort developing (about 1/4 inch thick) I noticed it when I started paying more attention to keeping my screen clean. Initially I thought it was a smudge from swiping the screen up and down but it won't go away after using a microfiber cloth, though it's hardly noticeable after cleaning . Then I began to think it was my folding cover for it since the line matches up sort of but then there should be one forming on the right side too (there isn't) and the streak goes about 2 inches past where the stitchlines go so it cant be that. It shows up when I fog my screen up, or after my screen gets a bit dirty.
Anyone notice this on their screens? I'm thinking it's heat induced from the tablet itself but I have no basis for that claim. It's sort of starting to bug me...

Have you tried to clean it with something other than just the cloth? Start with water.

A good splash.
Just kidding. The advice to just use a damp cloth with a little bit of detergent is sound, though. No surface is perfectly smooth, so you could have some external buildup pf grease. I do hope it is external, though. :fingers-crossed:

I have the same issue in the middle of my screen when i press on it it kinda leaves a weird trace of the txt or picture behind it. Ive seen this on more then a few of these asus tf700t's. It looked like water at first was under the screen but it wasnt. Others will notice ifthey clean thescreen while the asus is on stare at the screen.i didnt notice for a long time.

That's probably fluid from the LCD (inside the LCD). Nothing to worry about. You can see it more clearly when on a light background.
I've tried with water and moved my way up to windex / diluted alcohol in the past to no avail.

looking at my screen more closely I realized it is coming off the tablet slightly have to cause a problem with enough to cause this streaking which I believe from the person above said LCD liquid in between the screen and lcd crystals and that's what my streaking happened. these places Bend really easy and it will cause the screen to slightly come off of its place which has happened to mine also the power Slot binge easily where you slide the power USB cable and this is a known issue. If you slide your finger around the bezel you will feel the screen slightly raised more on one side then the other.

how would you remove the plastic film that comes with the tablet

it was a stupid decision that i decided to not remove the plastic film that came with the tablet. (on all smartphones or tablets they always put a plastic film on the device so that it can prevent dust and stuff, samsung even puts some processor, ram information on it)
after months of using it now i want to remove it so i can put the screen protector on it, or at least i want to remove it because it seems collect too much dust and fingerprint and make the touch screen harder to use. but it's "glued" and i can't remove it now.
i tried using fingernails and clear tape but couldn't remove it.
does anybody have any idea of what i can do? thanks

Just peel it off? No other way of removing it.

Well I would guess that you will have to heat it up a bit to get it to come off and you may have to use a bit more force than you might like.
Damn that's not good at all dude. It sounds like the screen protector was exposed to some heat and melted to your screen. I would call the manufacturer and tell them everything and maybe they will send you a new one. Good luck!

Just peel what you can off and use some sort of cleaning solution to gently rub off the residue. You would think the plastic comes off pretty easily, but if left on for too long, I've seen this happen on more than a few occasions.
