Mine does the same. I noticed the "tray" where the tablet slides into the dock is padded with felt. I'm thinking if you remove the one on the front side that would give the tablet just enough clearance to stop the rub marks.

Haven't tried this tho.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HuskerWebhead:
My Skinomi screen protector made it nearly impossible to get my Prime in and out of the dock. It also started actually pushing up the protector at certain points. I ended up taking the protector off completely because I just wasn't comfortable with how tight it fit. I ended up buying another screen protector and cut it so that it allows for where the dock fits over the screen. Works much better.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
I'm using just the skinomi skin not screen protector and I will see how that works out.. Hopefully it won't scratch its beautiful screen!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RJM77:
Is that really a scratch or is it just some kind of residue? When I undock my prime after having been docked for a day there's a slight dust line left in that same spot, but it just takes a quick swipe of my finger to clean it. Seems pretty unlikely to dent glass like that. And a scratch like that would seem to happen if you slid the tablet into the dock horizontally.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
may be to thick with the backplate protector..

Thanks for the heads up.

Does no one remove the Asus sticker on their docks? Or did you just get it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HuskerWebhead:
lol....I removed mine. They drive me nuts.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
It's normal to leave those stickers your talking about on most laptops if not every one I have serviced still has the sticker like it on I actually prefer to have it left on.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
To me it is like leaving the tag on clothes you wear.. why have a shiny piece of Asus "How to" there for years? looks tacky

Hope its not a fashion statement like baseball caps and leaving the stupid New Era sticker on the brim
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ravizzle:
And people who leave the plastic film on their laptops...

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
Agreed; it was the first thing that I took of the tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MrGiggles:
When you get a new TV do you leave that HUGE sticker in the top right that says I can do this this this and this and also this.... I bet not.. lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eraursls1984:
It's nice to leave them on a laptop, it makes ordering parts for your model very easy. On the other hand everyone knows the this tablet is the transformer prime and almost everyone on this board knows its a TF201
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] foboi1122:
Has anyone with a clear front and back skin tried fitting it in the dock? I'm wondering if the clear one is a little thinner. I'd really like to put my prime in a protector + skin because today I got my first scratch on the back. But if it's not gonna fit in the dock, then I might need to reconsider.

Also, anyone know any front+back protector combos which DO fit in the dock nicely?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
Any word on how it fits? I am looking into doing the same.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] EDHahn:
It does not fit

Skinomi will not fit I in the dock
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] colbyb25:
I have the dock as well. Any thoughts on loosening the screws a touch at the bottom of the hinge? My Zagg Invisible Shield arrives in two days and that is what I am going to try.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
So both Asus' official transleeve case and Asus' official dock scratch their own tablet (I have the case, but not the dock)? I just don't know what to say anymore.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zoukis:
That's a scratch on the screen protector because he has an extra film on both the front and back of the prime. The dock doesn't scratch the Prime. I take it in and out daily with just a screen protector on, and don't have a single mark on my Prime (or screen protector).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
Okay. That's good to know. I quickly read this whole thread but didn't see that it was a scratch on the protector and not the Prime, and obviously the thread title is misleading.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mr_Armageddon:
The smudges on the screen protector are just due to the fact that with both a skin and screen protector on the device, the fit is really tight when using he dock. The solution for me was to just cut a small section off where the dock presses against he Prime. Now it works great, no smudges or scratches and the dock is much easier to put on and take off now.

I have attached pics of what I did as it will pretty much be required for any screen protector if you plan on using one in conjunction with he dock. I emailed Skinomi these pics and they said they are making a modified one for the dock, and will be sending me one for free once they are done, for notifying them of the issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cstooch:
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I ordered the carbon fiber skinomi skin plus screen protector from Skinomi. I'm wondering... is using the dock with this thing an issue because of BOTH the screen protector and the skin? I.e., when I get this thing, should I cut out a spot on

BOTH

the skin and the screen protector first before applying them? Or is it only necessary to cut out the screen protector spot? Sorry, I wasn't too clear from the thread.

To me it makes sense that both would be an issue, but someone mentioned they cut out their screen protector and didn't mention anything about the skin. So just wanted to make sure before I cut the skin for no reason.

Thanks!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tairen:
Ok, I read this thread and I see alot of you are confused as to whether Skinomi is still good for your TFP.

First of all to cstooch, if you already have your Skinomi skin and screen protector on it's way, yes, cut the bottom of the screen protector where the prime connects to the keyboard dock and it will not scratch your screen protector at all. After that, email Skinomi and tell them that your skin protector doesn't fit, and they will email you telling you that they are aware of the issue and are working on a screen protector that will fit your TFP when docked, which they will send to you free of charge.

If you haven't already bought their product, either wait until they come up with the modified screen protector OR just get their skin protector for the backplate. If you just put on the skin protector, it will fit fine with the keyboard dock and will not scratch your TFP at all.

Lastly, the "scratch" is not a permanent scratch on the TFP itself but on the screen protector. There is no need to worry, as you can simply just rip off the screen protector. I plan on leaving mine on until they send me the new one, since the scratch doesn't really affect my TFP or the dock.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pyro6128:
I'm noticing that the material they use for the screen protector marks easily. I had the microfiber cloth that came with the tab sitting on the screen with the flap of the case closed, I opened the case and noticed little indents from the ridges of the cloth. They don't wipe away either. I'm hoping it fills back out.

But yea the fit is tight with the dock, and I only have the screen protector. I can tell that in time its either going to become damaged or start lifting off. I wonder if Skinomi will send me a modified one for the dock if I ask.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tairen:
how long has it been since you applied the skin? if your answer is "not that long", then leave it alone!! its a wet application skin, it takes a while to fully form a seal. leave it in a dry area and don't put anything over it or place in a case. as for contacting skinomi, read my above post.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] insane111:
i got the dock today. and i have the ghost armor screen protector on.. when i first put it on it scratched a little.. the scratch was made from the front foam padded sticker inside the dock..that pad was made for a tablet without screen protector.. the screen protector make it much tighter so it scratch causing it to lift up.. so instead cutting the screen protector i just remove the front pad sticker on the dock.. now it fit in perfect.. without having a disfigure protector..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] amanojyaku01:
The same thing happen to me. Put the clear screen protector on and i waited 2 days to fully dry and sit in. Put it in the dock and it mess it up. I'm still waiting for skinomi to send me a new design screen protector.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] erick0423:
Samething here, i just emailed skinomi. Hopefully they will send me a new one.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeniorGato:
I've been all through the old threads and googled the hell out of this...

I've recently been released from iHell and have to start all over as a noob again.

I successfully rooted my I-777 with entropy512's OneClick Odin method. Then re ran the OTA t back to 2.3.6. I am still rooted. (YAY!!!!!)

Anyway it was strongly suggested that I run a nandroid backup before flashing a new ROM. I went to the market, searched nandroid and was presented with CWM ROM manager. After install, on first run, it wanted to install CWM Recovery (which I thought could only come from a kernel but anyway). It appeared to have done so, but when I attempt to run the ROM backup it errors:

E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed

I'm also getting errors in 3e:

--Copying Media Files ...
Successfully coppied media files

# manual mode #
--Updating Application...
Successfully updated application

-- applying multi-CSC...
installing multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/csc/ATT/system/'.
successfully applied multi-csc.

Another strange behavior (not necessarily an error): Last night, prior to rooting, I was able to do to download mode with my USB cable plugged into EITHER the computer OR a USB power adapter / charger. Today, after root and ROM manager, I can only get to Download mode when plugged in to the computer. (caused a bit of panic till I took a couple deep breaths and began to trouble shoot)

I'm not a huge fan of flashing anything without a (relatively) virgin backup. I fear I may be stuck at root for a bit.

So questions:

1. Did ROM manager ACTUALLY install CWM R? Or do I have to flash the kernel to get it?

2. Is there a better way to gain a full file system image? I've seen a few users say that ROM manager and other GUI's add a layer of complexity and possibly error to the backup process.

2a. Is there a CLI in Android? (even an app to do CLI?) If so , can I interact direclty with the OS that way?

3. Is there a place to get a clean OS install if I get all A.D.D. and go ahead and flash without the backup and then screw the pooch? (Or if I want to virginize for any reason?)

I am planning to follow creepyncrawly's post to flash if I can work this out:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
There are warnings in several places in the I777 forums to not use ROM Manager. It's not compatible with the I777 phone.

Yes, you have to have a custom kernel to have working ClockworkMod Recovery.

There is no way to do a nandroid backup of the stock kernel. You can do a nandroid backup of the stock file system by installing a custom kernel with CWM Recovery.

You can restore the original UCKH7 binaries with or without root by using Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, and there is also a UCKK6 available in that thread, so no need for a stock nandroid backup. The main reason for a nandroid backup is to backup the modifications that you have made.

So use the guide to install a custom kernel. I would suggest Entropy512's latest daily driver, especially if you plan to run the stock ROM for any length of time. Then do a nandroid backup. Then you can move forward to installing a custom rom if you want, or whenever you want.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Somehow ROM Manager can try to run its own version of CWM - I have never seen this work properly.

Odd, that looks like the initial power-on CSC flash, shouldn't happen after that.

This is working as intended, not sure why you were able to enter DL mode on a charger (shouldn't have happened), unless it was not an official charger. The resistors in iDevice chargers make the phone think a real PC is connected, not a charger.

ROM Manager sort-of-installed a nonfunctional version of CWM. Only one that works properly is in-kernel CWM. (Read through Development, also read through Creepy's guides on flashing kernels without tripping the flash counter)

Nandroid from CWM itself - the instructions for entering CWM and using it properly are in codeworkx'x CWM thread in Development.

This is why Android is so popular with tinkerers - while the GUI is heavily customized, shell access is almost identical to a vanilla Linux system. Google "ADB" for more info. ADB only works in recovery on custom kernels.

You answered your own question right there - his guides link my stock kernel/system dumps. :)

I suggest spending a day or two reading through the various threads in Development, and reading the FAQ in general, there is a LOT of reading material and even if it goes over your head the first time, you'll start absorbing it and it'll make more sense the next time around. The fact that you are proceeding cautiously is a good start.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeniorGato:
Oops... Apparently I wasn't "all through" the forums enough huh? I didn't see any warnings about ROM Manager... but thanks I'll dump it.

Everything else you say makes sense. Thanks!!! I'm still trying to translate what I know about the iOS FS and jailbreaking to what I need to learn about Android. Ugh...

:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeniorGato:
@ entropy

Ya the CSC thing, I've been multi-tasking all day and for the life of me I can't remember why I was even in 3e. It wasn't for a restore, thats for sure.

I had assumed that the development threads were the real high level stuff (as it is on iOS forums the "DEV's" speak in code and their conversations can strip the hair of a noob's head. I figured I'd start slow, with (what I assumed would be) the lower level stuff. I'll head over to the dev threads now.

Thanks again!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Usually the threads for ROMs/kernels have enough to be useful in the first posts. Even if it goes over your head the first few times, you'll get ideas for Google search terms to play with like Odin and Heimdall.

Also there's a FAQ in General.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Alright, I noticed this the first day, but went on with the assumption that it's normal.

I need you to turn off your Desire HD, go to a quiet room (as quiet as possible, perhaps home, at night) and boot it up. You'll hear a strange noise... not too loud... not many seconds after the bootscreen has appeared. At least... you'll hear it, if this is normal, and not only MY device is affected.

There's also something awkward about the screen, when booting up. The image shifts a bit, like it's being distorted for a fraction of a second, then the screen goes brighter (or whiter? my bootscreen is the default one, but it has 3 skate droids at the bottom). If it happens, you can't miss it, given you're paying attention!

This is not occuring EVERY BOOT, but every boot out of 10, for example, it doesn't happen. Boot the device several times to see whether it is happening or not. PLEASE!

So... please put that to the test. I'm beginning to believe that my device is somewhat faulty or something (that, in addition to the battery suddenly aging) :/
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LorD ClockaN:
can't test sound issue, but when that pic gets distorted, than it means it's starting to boot and it won't be stuck on boot.img
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Oh, okay. Good to hear. That sound is occuring just after the... boot.

I was expecting it to be the boot, cause right after that distorsion, the white would get brighter, and... well, that sound...

This wasn't happening when I had the Desire. Or it could have been because I was having a similar stock splash screen, just that it was white text on dark background... But I also had the stock splash screen for a while, and I did not notice it happening. Also, no such sound back on the Desire...

Please test that for the sound, when you can!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joedeuce:
Is "that sound" the sound of the vibration motor?

Inspire 4G // BlackICE
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Formhault:
Now that you brought that up, it COULD be. I doubt it, since I don't find any purpose in this whatsoever (or the BIOS (bootloader) is testing every hardware piece...? In which case, I suspect the speaker, earpiece and camera + LED would be "lit" up, as well?).

So... you tested it and it's the same for you?

Hello, what is the best ROM for ICS on Samsung Galaxy S? I'm fed up of stock ROM being slow and want something fast and want ICS :D I've never flashed before and downloaded "Onecosmic's ICS Port Android 4.0.3 RC2.11" but don't have a clue on how to start flashing it, as he hasn't made a noob tutorial :D

Any help would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsolhac:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HelloThere1:
But I'm a noob :-( I don't even know how to root or put CWM on... what ROM would you recommend for noob like me, ICS one or CM7? I Just want something really fast that will make games smoother and that works fully....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsolhac:
Do you know how to flash a kernel via Odin? You will be rooted and have CWM automatically once you flash a custom kernel. I would recommend you to use a custom GB rom, as not all apps are compatible with ICS and more bug free.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HelloThere1:
oh ok.. is the standard CM7 the fastest ROM then?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsolhac:
In my opinion, no. Perhaps you would want to try the Simplicity rom. (:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] likuid.:
Ok, so heres the deal. Was on stock rooted 886 w/o permaroot, and my dumbass did the OTA 893 update. Lost root, so I used R3l3AS3DRoot and did a Restore, Root, & For3v3r root. This brought my system back to 886, but from what I've gathered, my kernel and radio are still 893? My issue is, now I cant update at all, to 893 or 901 (basically what I want to do is run Eclipse V2.0 .901 Patched thats posted Here. I've tried this and the update still fails. I've also tried updating straight to 901 due to the fact that my kernel and radio are supposedly still 893 since I did that stupid ass OTA update. Am I screwed, or is there something else I can do?

BTW, I did get the Eclipse V2.0 901 Patched to install on my safe boot partition with bootstrap recovery, but I had absolutely NO DATA. I even tried moving the 901's system/lib files and still nata. I'm assuming this is due to the fact that the kernel and radio are still 893?

try the pathsaver method by p3droid. first go your sd-ext and remove any updates that are their or it will not push the ones you need. there is a vid out there somewhere on how to but it is pretty easy just read all instructions
[HTC EVO 3D] GadgetMonger:
Anyone else wake up to data issues today? Had no data connection even though sprint zone diagnostics said 3G connection was working correctly. Called sprint, they said there were no outages in my area and made up an E ticket. Told me to take it in to the sprint store. Decided to try ##3282# myself first. Got data back, but now I'm stuck in 1x. I'm running the latest cleanRom and haven't had any issues up to now. The only thing that I've done different the last couple of days is that I've been using wifi tether to connect my new View. I'm wondering if they see it somehow and if I'm being throttled. Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] N4LG4S:
##DATA# wont help.

Yeah the ##DATA# wont do anything for you. Please try any of the following:

1. Turn on airplane mode for about 1 min, and the turn off.

OR

2. Try power off the device and remove the battery for about 2 minutes so the device fully powers off and deregisters from the network. Power back on and try again.

If that does not work let me know. You might have to reset the network settings through ##CLEAR# menu.
[HTC EVO 3D] Deromeh:
I had this the other day but I reflashed my phone I dont know if yours is flashed and it fixed it
[HTC EVO 3D] EniGmA1987:
The past couple days my phone has lost data connection a couple times for seemingly no reason, and I am pretty much always at 1x now. Also my cell signal is lower than usual.

This is even when connected to my airave. I dont know why, but Sprint just seems to have this happen sometimes.
[HTC EVO 3D] GadgetMonger:
It definitely seems to be associated with wifi tether. I did try the airplane mode deal as well as turning off the mobile data. Also powering down and pulling the battery. It's hit and miss. Seems like receiving a text or checking my email will bring back 3G, have no idea why? But it's been working for me pretty consistently. Once I'm back up and running I'm golden til I tether again... Then sometimes I lose it sometimes I don't.
[Acer Iconia A500] mightyorbots:
I have an A500 with the Acer stock rom on it (3.2), and I'm having problems getting the HDMI out to work. Is there a special setting somewhere that sends the screen output to HDMI? Or should it automatically appear?

I got a micro HDMI to HDMI adapter off of eBay, so I don't know if that's the cause of the problem. I know the HDMI on the TV works because my XBox works fine on it.

I would appreciate anyone's insight into this problem.
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Have you tried turning off your tab, plugging in the HDMI cable to both your tab, and TV, then booting up tab? ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] HideyoshiJP:
It should just work as soon as it's plugged in. You'll see a notification that an HDMI display was detected or somesuch. My A500 had a loose HDMI port so it would flake out with the slightest touch. Cables are cheap, so it may be worthwhile to get another cable from a place like monoprice.com and see if that makes a difference. If not, it's either the device or TV. Maybe a friend has an Android phone with micro-HDMI you can test with?
[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
I found plugging into tv first then connecting to tab worked best, before that I only had a blank tv screen... Seems the A500/501 needs the tv connected first, at least mine does...:p

ON MY LAME BUT Huge screen SANYO.. (DONT LAUGH IT WAS ON SALE) tv in the living room i have to sometimes plug the cable into the tv.. set the tv to hdmi 4.. IT WILL ONLY WORK ON PORT 4 .. then when i have black screen saying no input found or something like that i plug in the tablet.and all is well..

ALSO PAY GOOD MONEY FOR THE CABLE.. THE CHEAP TINY Connector is not equal on all cables my iconia only works on the gold plated high end cable

i use the same one as i do for my cell phone...

ACER WAS LAME BY PUTTING SUCH A SMALL PORT. there is room in that spot of this tablet for atleast a mini port if not full size I hate micro ports...
