@dandmcd - It really does depend on the screen protector, but on the whole most are manufactured thin enough in that they don't affect the touchscreen sensitivity at all. I can only comment from my experience with two versions of the iphone, I haven't got a screen protector for my transformer yet....

Hopefully someone releases an anti-glare protector.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] RMXO:
I would suggest the Ultra Fine from SGPStore. I got one for my Xoom & it reduced the glossy & glare without ruining screen quality.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
The products on SGPStore look really good. I'm thinking about getting one for my Transformer. They obviously don't have one specifically for the TF101 yet so does anyone have experience cutting one of these to fit a different device. I was thinking of getting this one because it's larger allowing me room for a few mistakes and it has an anti-glare option.

They also have nice styli for sale at only $12.99

Will the Steinheil Xoom screen protector fit the ASUS EEE Pad Transformer?

Thanks,

JDangles
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
I highly doubt it. The Xoom is a much smaller tablet and if you want something to cover the whole glass including the large bezel, anything made for the Xoom will not work.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] JDangles:
Thanks for saving me from buying that then! Is there anything else out there that will work well for the Transformer? Please it is killing me not having some type of protection on this and I really like Steinheil products....I emailed them and they said they are not sure whether they will carry ASUS EEE Pad Transformer screen protector so where do I go now?!

Hello Bullet- We have been wondering where those wipes went to.... Please report to the HR Dept and pick up your pink slip.:cool:

do a 11" netbook screen protector fits the Transformer?I know we may need to cut some bits off..

Despite what has been said about Gorilla glass, I have a couple small scratches on the screen of my Gorilla Glass enabled Samsung Galaxy S. They are barely noticeable, but they are there.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] JDangles:
I just wonder about the quality of something like this. I know Steinheil makes good quality screen protectors that you can not even tell are on there.

Any other suggestions or have you ever bought this type of screen protector before? If so what is the quality like?

Thanks,

JDangles
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] js042507:
Hi. You guys could try Skinomi? The screen protector alone is about $22, and the full body is $30. The "asus" products say back-ordered, but im sure they should be shipping soon. Also, if you use the promo code "get25", that'll take 25% off! I just placed an order about an hour ago, and can confirm the code works. So it was like $22 for the full body. They aren't the greatest and compare very closely to zagg. But I have a skinomi on my xoom and it is pretty decent! I will post an update when I receive a shipping notification. It better be soon! Gorilla glass, or not, I am very anal and HAVE to protect my devices. :-)

Same deal here with a zune, within a week i managed to get a scratch on the screen and it was in my jeans pocket with nothing else inside (the jeans were even washed just prior)

I like that its tough glass, but honestly when i've installed a high quality screen protector thats plastic and not film, its just as smooth as the glass itself, minus the grippy feel when your hands are clean and you've just wiped the screen clear of oils and dirt.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] gokusay99:

Thanks for the code !!! pre-order my screen for $14.96 !! Good deal !!!

I might just buy a xoom one for my transformer, there only about £3 for 2 on ebay.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] efdot:
Do you (or anyone for that matter) think its a bit of overkill to get the screen protector and the skin protector, especially if I plan on keeping it in its sleeve 99% of the time.

I know it seems like a little much but I do plan on re-selling it once the tegra3 tablets start shipping.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
I honestly don't think that's necessary. Out of all the devices I've had I've only ever bought protectors for the screens because I always kept them in cases. If it makes you feel better, I'm getting a screen protector too (though I don't know which one yet) and I plan on reselling my device too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] EMINENT1:
Just ordered one $14.95 with code. I can attest to having a scratch on my iphone 4 and wish I had it protected. I have no idea how it got there too as it's always in my pocket or on a table. Maybe my rings, but still happened unintentionally on accident without me knowing. One second it's perfect and next.... gash!:mad:

Do it or regret it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I suppose nobody has found the PET (SPUC/EXiM) style screen protectors yet?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] pogul:
Looks like Amazon carries the Skinomi protectors too: http://amzn.to/mLB0ga

$18.95 - so not as cheap as the coupon, but cheaper than regular price on the skinomi site..
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
I was wondering the same thing.

For anyone that has the Skinomi protector, is it similar to a Zagg protector in terms of feel (i.e. rubbery) and how does it handle the glare?

Also has anyone tried the B&E screen protectors? The are a little expensive ($32.42) but they are all PET and have an anti-glare option.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] dunginhawk:
I wouldnt necessarily trust the gorilla class.

ive had a dell streak for 7 months now which too has it, and it has tiny scratches all over the screen. Not enough to ruin it, but enough to notice when you tilt it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
It's expensive relative to phone screen protectors, and to the Skintomi (wet application), but it's like you're buying 10 phone sized screen protectors. Even if those were $2-3 that's equal to $20 to $30!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] klau1:
How are PET screen protectors compared to these other more hyped up products from Zagg, Skinomi?

I've been using EXIM PET Ultra Clear for many other devices and so far the experience is good. But you hardly hear of them in any forums? Why is this? Are they not good?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
Gbcue, do you have one of these or used a product with a B&E protector on it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
I don't know why PET type aren't hyped as much as those dumb Zagg/Skintomi/Wet Apply ones. PET are dry apply, can you reposition, WASH & reuse, and they are as smooth as glass (feels like plastic).

I think they're better than those wet-apply ones because they have Orange Peel texture!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Gbcue:
Not B&E brand, but I have used PET style screen protectors forever. I had a BSE for my BlackBerry Pearl 9100 and hated it. It was sticky all the time due to the orange peel texture.

On my MT3G and MT4G, I used a PET style. Very smooth. Realook (brand) is very thin and smooth (what I currently have on MT4G).
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] patseei:
Anyone got their skin/screen protectors from Skintomi and would like to share pic and review pls?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] RMXO:
I would like to know also. I ordered mine & it should arrive by thurs.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ratindahat:
I ordered a clearfreak one for mine today. I've been happy with the one from them that i have on my galaxy s. Guess we will see how it does on the transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] GarJones27:
I just ordered one of cause it seemed like a good deal. I got the front ONLY one with a 50% OFF coupon code (NOTERROR) and the total with Media Mail shipping was $10.91.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] Crimton:
These are my favorite. I emailed sgpstore requesting that they make screen protectors for the transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] howarmat:
i emailed them too about it. Hope they come thru
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] efdot:
Let us know when they're available, I'd love to check them out too. Thanks guys.
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] orion01:
I emailed SGP lastnight and this is what i recieved from them:

Thank you for your interest.We are still deciding whether we are going to make products for Asus Transformer or not.Please stay tuned with us and check our website for the future updates. Thank you. Best regards,
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] RMXO:
I received the same reply yesterday.

The only thing I could never do properly when installing a SGP is the edges.

I decided to try out SKinomi this time since SGP has to make up its mind or not. Has anyone installed any screen protector yet?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] morbiddevil82:
Im wondering this too...

I am wanting to put a screen protector on this before unveil this to my kids (1 yr old and 3 yrs old) ...because you know how kids are..
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] blaine.hale:
For those worried solely about finger prints (not glare and scratches,) try RainX.

It actually works great to prevent 80% or so fingerprinting and smudging.

It takes a few minutes to actually buff it in and start getting a white hazy result. Once you get that haze, it's safe to clean it off and you're done!
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ratindahat:
i might have to try that. never thought of using rainx
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] howarmat:
anyone get their clearfreak protector? i got mine but it doesnt cover the entire glass screen?
[Eee Pad Transformer Accessories] ratindahat:
indeed. just put mine on yesterday. I emailed them to see if this was their intent or if they have bad dimensions.

Followup for the clearfreak.

They got a hold of me and are trying to get the issue resolved. Still not sure if it is measurement error or someone grabbed the wrong part, but they are taking care of it. If you have one that is wrong, you might shoot them an email.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masternoah:
Ok i am running 2.2.1

Baseband version:

2.6.32.15-g59b9e50htc-kernal and18-2 #17

kernal 2.6.35.15

Build #: jiminy IV

PRI version : 1.77_003

PRL:

30900

On my htc evo 4g, this is by default rom that cricket flashe to my phone,

I am wondering if this is a good rom,

I have noticed my mms doesnt work, it acts like it is sending but it never actually sends the mms to the other person nor can i seem to recieve mms

I am wanting a different rom / newer one

that would increase my battery time,

I only get about from 6am to 3pm before its about dead.

Also id like to fix the mms,

And want to know what the latest PRL is for my phone for cricket.

Also on this rom the front camera doesnt work but when i flashed cm7 with i dont like it works.

I dont want a rom that has a theme i prefer the stock theme / look just midified or with these things i requested.

and everything else such as internet gps text phone working for cricket that i already had.

Please recommend me things things / rom i should use, and links to these latest things.

Thanks

Ive been looking all over and can find them
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
You can pretty much flash any rom made for the EVO 4G as long as you're rooted, however, I'm not sure if you're able to use those roms with Cricket. I don't why you shouldn't be able to, but I'm not a Cricket customer. Try this. Before flashing a different rom, go into your recovery and make a nandroid backup of your current setup to fall back to in case you're dissatisfied with the new rom or is unable to use it with Cricket. If you want recommendations on a Sense-based rom, I recommend Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS 5. You can view screenshots and download it from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=793471

I'm pretty sure you have to have the cricket rom for your phone to work. If you go to another to it probably won't work.
[Android Software Development] chocoboyo:
Hello, I'm starting with Android and I'm trying to program a timer which launch an application or an AlertDialog, even if the application is in background. I know it is very invasive for the user but is necesary cause it show an important alarm that must be handled instantly.

Thats the code I used, but only works if MainActivity is the current activity =(

Timer time=new Timer();
teme.schedule(new TimerTask() {
public void run() {
Intent dialog = new Intent(MainActivity.this., Alarm.class);
dialog.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_FROM_BACKGROUND);
startActivity(dialog);
}

}, delay);

Can someone help me please?
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
Going to have to run it as a Service :)
[Android Software Development] Lakers16:
You have MainActivity.this is why MainActivity has to be running.

When you start an activity, update the reference, and then call:

[whateverActivityIsRunning].this
[Android Software Development] Rick_1995:
Aditionally, you may try launching another thread under your process, this however will not work if your app was force closed by system or user.

private void dodelayed(int delay, Intent someintent){
Handler handler = new Handler();
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override public void run(){
//If that dialog is custom class then someintent.setclass(this,classname.class);
startActivity(someintent);
}
},delay);
}
[Android Software Development] chocoboyo:
Thanks guys, starting the activity from a service works nice for my target.

Now i'm trying a new thing:

I start the service in my app, then i open another app, Angry Birds for example xD. The startActivity tiggers and my app comes to front with a Activity that shows a message and a button.

I want a button click hide the Activity and move Andry Birds back to front.

How could I do it? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
finish();

:)
[Android Software Development] chocoboyo:
With finish() I go to the last Activity of my app before it went to background =(
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
Do you know what that last activity is? You could set a variable in it to call from your other activity telling it to also finish.

You could also try something like this:

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#reparent
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
The "Love & Hate" of Android OS. :)

finish(); will only pop the last Activity on it's OWN thread and not Angry Birds as it is running on it's own thread (well VM actually).

The OS was designed this way; they didn't want any old application dumping something else that was running...makes sense to me.

I don't know what you're doing, but it sounds like it's working OK to me. Say I'm in the middle of creating a text, your timer goes off (for whatever reason I don't know), I respond to it and go about my texting. I would be more than upset if your timed event blew me out of my texting!!! :) Your app would be in the trash bin pretty quickly.

Might need a little more info on what you're trying to do...
[Android Software Development] chocoboyo:
My app wont be comercial. It reads from a bluetooth device checking for alarms, if any, gives the user some time for cancell it, else its sent to the main server.

I want do something like whatsapp application. where, if you activate the emergent notifications. when you receive an message a alertdialog is shown. But you can cancell it and continue with your stuff

See that screenshot:
[Android Software Development] Rick_1995:
for such notifications, first create an activity with normal textview and buttons and remember to use layout_width and height as wrap_content, then in your application manifest use the following

<activity android:name="activity"
android:label="Title"
android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog">

now when you call this activity from a service, a dialog box such as in the picture above depending on your layout xml will be shown. and when you call finish() through a button on this dialog, the focus will be passed to angry birds since this activity was launched from a parent with no UI.
[Android Software Development] chocoboyo:
Exactly what i was looking for. Thanks! ;)
[Android Software Development] Rick_1995:
dont waste posts, hit the thanks button! :p

[Thunderbolt General] jasonbiggs:
Anyone know of a .zip flash (or can build one) that will disable AOSP/Sense lockscreen so as to use pattern only? Hate to unlock twice. seems android left this feature out when using the pattern lock. I know market has "no lock" but still this resides in memory for some reason. Just looking for simple flash that would take care of it permanently. thanks!
[Thunderbolt General] intangibleDroid:
Don't hold me to this but I am pretty sure if you rename the HtcLockScreen.apk to HtcLockScreen.apk.old or something not ending .apk, it will revert to the AOSP lockscreen.

It might depend what ROM you're on, so I would make a backup first.
[Thunderbolt General] Odinist:
It does revert to the AOSP lockscreen, but for some weird reason, it still makes you unlock then put in your pattern.

Probably because, even though you're using the AOSP lockscreen, you're still a Sense phone.

I'd bet than when we start seeing AOSP ROMs, it'll work as intended.
[Thunderbolt General] jasonbiggs:
cool. thanks.
[Thunderbolt General] black05x5:
I was also hoping someone would come up with a fix for this. It seems silly to have to unlock the phone and then have to put in your pattern to actually unlock the phone. Would be much easier if the phone went straight to the pattern unlock when it wakes. I tried the pre CM7 rom and that's how it works. There is no initial lock screen. When I wake my phone it goes straight to the pattern unlock page. The thing is I actually like many sense features, just not the extra lock screen.
[Thunderbolt General] mcmillanje:
I would also like a way around this........ but I doubt there's away.. (now imma have to flash cm7 to see if it's fixed in an aosp rom...)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twoeleven99:
they wont be shipping the phone out until the 20th. depending on what delivery method you chose, you might not get the phone until next week monday. wtf
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
sorry to hear that man =(

i never liked going through 3rd party vendors...

tmobile is having enough problems shipping their own phones (back order/saturday delivery) let alot working with wirefly!

hope you get it sooner than you think!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twoeleven99:
real problem is my sprint contract ended last night. i have no phone right now and i use it for business so i have to figure something out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
i have not had a phone sense friday bro.. i know what your going through...

i got the 4G in the mail and had to send them it back before they would place the G2x order....

try going to tmobile store and see if they have a loaner phone for you to use till you get the G2x... (im sure your contract started when you bought the phone so if there billing you and your not using it then ***** ;) youll get something done if not a decent credit)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cyberdan3:
I bought two phones from Wirefly and was told that it would ship out on the 20th. It was no surprise for me and I planned accordingly by ordering 2 day shipping for $8. It will hopefully be here on Friday.

I am getting each phone for $150 vs $250 up front = saving $200 up front

I also got free activation fees and free shipping= $35x2= $75 up front

I think saving $275 and waiting 2 extra days is worth it to me. It will be in my hands soon enough.

That sucks if you were never told this though. I thought I even saw it on the website.....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twoeleven99:
yeah. the rep i spoke with friday told me they'd ship it monday
[T-Mobile LG G2x] donutman:
I ordered from tmo. Got the tracking number but it has yet to be updated since "billing info received". =( I should have got at least one update by now. Ordered the first day is was available too.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
DO NOT GO BY WHAT T-MOBILE.com SAYS! (there website sucks at current info)

i ordered mine also first day (4/15) and i didnt get a txt till staurday saying it will be delivered 4/20... then 10 mins later a txt saying it will be delivered 4/19 WITH a tracking number... it still says on the ups site that it isnt shipped yet...

i called a rep and she said she cant see anything till the 20th because it doesnt show inventory till its actually released (4/20) but i assume it will be here by the 19th and she assured me it would also....

t-mobile does not know whats going on... (people are getting txts saying it on back order)

and they cant tell you if it will be on back order till the 20th...

so to sum it all up...

if you got a tracking number (friday/saturday its estimated to be at your house the 19th... if you got a tracking number today... expect it to arrive the 20th)

hope it helps but that is all the info i could pull outta her...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] WorldWide60:
I NEVER use their site to order, or to do anything. I always call 611. I put my order in Friday night at 7, UPS picked it up Saturday at 6am, and it's now on the UPS truck on the way to my house. If you call T-mobile, they'll give you (or should) a tracking number. Don't be surprised if it shows up on your doorstep today. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
I've had a tracking number since Friday morning. The phone just showed up in the UPS system at 10:00AM today. The arrival scan was in Louisville, KY, a UPS hub. It appears that to save a few bucks T-Mobile's bulk transporting orders to the UPS hub. So what Nate said is correct, the estimated delivery date in the UPS system is accurate even if it shows "billing info received" and Friday's orders should be delivered tomorrow for those that went for express. Based on comments on the T-Mo forum they really screwed up the ordering process for the G2X.
