Skins (exterior, not like ui themes) - Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus Accessories

Hey,
I generally favor vinyl/3m skins rather than cases for my devices, but since this tablet is apparently the most obscure ever brought to market, my go-to retailers are out.
Has anyone had any luck finding even a simple transparent skin for the back of these? TIA!

Exploded Android Wallpaper

Found a design I thought a lot of people here would like. Also available in t-shirt form. I havent tried it as a wallpaper (the resolution is only 559x422) but I thought it was pretty cool. T-shirts available as well.

I wish the quality was better...I might see if I can live trace this in Illustrator and get us a vectorized version....
cool shirt,
bought one

Keyboard needed

Hey all,
I really need a keyboard to go with my SGS, I'm looking for either a "snap-on" keyboard or a case with a keyboard in, has anyone seen either floating around?
Cheers
This one doesn't clip on but it does have a stand

The Logitech diNovo mini would probably be what you're looking for but it is a little pricey.

I ordered this full size one, it's silicone, waterproof, and rolls up. To be honest I personally wouldn't go anything less than a full size as otherwise Swype and the voice input are way better.

[Q] Just got the TF, a couple of "issues".

Hi everyone,
Just got my TF, and I'm loving it. I think it's a fantastic device and I can't wait to order my keyboard soon. That being said, there are still some, "issues," (more like minor annoyances) that I'd like to get resolved, hopefully before next Monday when I have a 4 hour plane trip.
1) YouTube skipping.
I notice when watching YouTube in fullscreen HQ, it seems like the video is constantly skipping. Is there any fix for this?
2) Live wall paper DESTROYS performance.
Not sure if there is a fix for this, but I was running a wall paper (might have come with Beautiful Widgets, not sure if it's stock) that changed based on the current forecast, and the sun and the moon would move based on the time. I noticed I was getting extremely bad transitions and disabled the live wall paper, and sure enough they went away.
I'm just surprised that a wall paper could destroy performance like that. Is there some sort of performance measure I could take?
3) Need a folio case (Accessories thread seems rather unresponsive)
I really want a 'folio type case. Having to hold the tablet for 4 hours would really kill the experience for me, especially if I'm using it to watch a movie or something.
I've read some very bad things about the Asus one, and I don't want to drop $50 if I'm going to replace it in a few months when more accessories come out. I've thought about a desk stand, but that seems very inconvenient for travel with.
One way or another, I need a way to protect it in my bag while traveling. If I can't find a decent folio case, I'll buy a cheap sleeve, but then I need a way to prop it up. Any suggestions?
----------------
Other than that, everything is pretty issue free. I guess I should consider myself lucky based on some of the things people are reporting.
Youtube usually takes a little bit longer than typical to buffer but I have never had any skipping issues.
The live wallpaper you are using is most likely not optimized for tablets and it is also notorious for slowing down phones. I have used it in the past and while it is very nice it does indeed harm performance and battery life.
Try using one of the live wallpapers that came with the device.
The Beautiful Live Wallpaper has an option when you are setting it where you can reduce the FPS. This will make your transitions better, but it's not going to make a huge difference in the long run. It seems that the HC launcher, or HC itself, just has some real rough animation edges that are seen in the lancher and elsewhere.
With mine, the stock HC Launcher lags a fair bit on my default screen where I have a 4 information widgets (beautiful weather super clock, plume, gmail (HC) and the calendar schedule (HC)). Going to my next screen to the right, which only has icons, is less chunky than going to the widget default screen. Going to an empty screen from either of these is very smooth since there's nothing to draw really.
On my other tablet (Viewsonic G Tablet) I run Launcher Pro, with it's wonderful widgets. Similar setup too on the default screen with weather, twitter/facebook, etc. I tried to set that up on HC as well, but even with Launcher Pro it was laggy switching between screens. Something that didn't happen in GB on on the G Tablet. Since Launcher Pro felt wrong on the Transformer I switched back to the stock launcher until something better comes out.
From what I've read, though, HC 3.1 tackles the transitions issues and other things. Additionally, on ASUS' facebook page they say they are already working on the 3.1 update for the Transformer. Hope that comes out sooner than later
I have one question:
Why using wallpapers that slow down your overall tablett performance and not just use a nice picture?

Click to expand...

The Beautiful Weather one is really nice because it shows the sky that changes based on the time of day and the weather conditions. At night you have a dark sky with a moon, in the day you have a light sky with the sun. It's not needed, just nice .
----------------------------
Thanks for the info. I guess it's waiting for HC 3.1 then (which I don't have a problem with).
Any info on a good Folio case?
I also might need to return the tablet. I noticed last night part of the bezel sticking out on the bottom side, and I'm worried this is going to cause problems when I get the dock. I plan on calling Asus later today.
I'm having the exact same issues with youtube. I have waited for the entire video to buffer and it still glitches like crazy. It makes the video unwatchable. I also noticed this happens when I play any sort of flash video in fullscreen. (ie. nbc.com full episodes).
Is this an isolated problem or is everyone else just looking past it? It's driving me bonkers because one of the main reasons I bought this to be able to play videos when at friends/relatives houses. I'm 100% stock, non-rooted.
I've only noticed the Youtube/flash lag issues when it's high def video (1080p and sometimes on 720p). Otherwise, I don't see any visible lag. This was on Flash 10.2 and haven't checked on 10.3 yet.
Yeah, I get the lag anytime I choose "HQ" in the youtube app. I seem to get flash choppiness no matter what the stream is, as long as it's fullscreen.
try youtube through the browser, 480p should work fine in the browser.
as for your question regarding the folio case...
the reason the accessories thread is unresponsive (i've posted there myself) is because there isnt really much to report on the dedicated TF cases. there are some options that people are exploring (netbook sleeves, folio cases designed for other tablets) but thats because the ONLY case out right now is the one from Asus. from what ive read, the Asus one kinda sucks and is not worth the $40.
i have my TF for business use...going to meetings, viewing documents, etc...so i'm right there with you on the need for a folio case. there just isnt anything out right now. my best guess based on what ive read is that third parties are making cases for the TF right now and i would say this time next month, we should have at least a couple of options. this is not the iPad so third party support isnt just chomping at the bit to push out accessories to an "unproven tablet".
my advice to you would be to get something relatively inexpensive just to protect your tablet from accidental dropping or scratching until a true folio case comes out. and who knows when that will be, but my hope is 2-4 weeks from now.
hopefully they fix the youtube HQ fullscreen playback soon!
I'm thinking a cheap sleeve might have to just do it, and ill pick up a folding stand for my plane trip. Really don't want to do it this way, but it might be the best option for the cost.

GSII Samsung Keypad?

I've seen this in many reviews that the default keyboard that Galaxy S II users use, is a bit similar to the one we have, except with a few minor changes with the skin, popups and stuff like that. Has anyone made a port by any chance or is doing it?

Galaxy S7 skin decal vector template?

I'm not looking for actual printed decals, I'm looking for illustrator template files FOR a galaxy s7 decal skin.
I have only seen a few for sale, none free obviously. I'm not opposed to paying a site for a good template but its hard to know which sites are reputable and if their vector templates actually fit the phone properly once printed and cut?
These are the only sites I've found offering templates for sale. Rest seem like scams and fakes. Anyone have experience with any of the below?
https://www.axvector.com/
http://cdrtemplate.pp.ua
https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/TemplatesAndCutFiles
CdrTemplates are good but outdated on several brands.
AxVector does not seem to have many.. i don't know how good are they.
Templates and Cut Files are excellent but have moved into their main store and are now known as BrutalVisualStudio (which can be found at brutalvisualstudio.com)
Basically you have mentioned the top 3.. i guess..
