I tried to find a spare USB cable for the Eee Pad and no luck. It makes me nervous to have a proprietary format cable without a spare.
Considering how difficult is to the get an Eee Pad, I wonder how to get the cable...
Thanks!

Just wait a little bit, the galaxy tab also had a proprietary plug and now ebay is flooded with adapter/plug/charger, i guess we will see more accessories when stock will be easily available...
You are right. Things always how up once the supply gets going... I wish they did not have a proprietary cable. I understand why they did it but...
I'm a little disappointed they didn't just use MicroUSB.... then and again, I don't think any of the tablets on the market currently do?

just about all the cheap ones do (i think some have mini-usb) also the archos, xoom, i believe the iconia has a full usb port...
it would have been nice to include an extra cable with the dock.

An OEM that releases a device that uses a proprietary cable to supply the device with power IMHO has a responsibility to see to it that customers can readily purchase replacement cables. People do lose/break things and without a way to charge the TF it's an expensive paper weight. I hope Asus is listening & will rectify this situation quickly, I'd love to purchase a backup cable.
I would like to have another one so I can have one at home and one at work. I forgot the cable at home today and now can't connect it to my computer here at work.

Problem with the galaxy tab is it uses a connector that is very similar to Apples connector except that the pin backplane is reversed, which wouldn't be hard to change for manufacturers of non-licensed Apple connectors
http://fatmixx.com/tag/pdmi/
While Asus's cable connector is probably made in house and proprietary
so who knows how long it will take for others to make knockoffs of the connectors
It would have been nice if Asus included a micousb connector on the transformer at least for charging and data sync
I created a folder on my Windows PC desktop and 'shared' it, then in ES Lan added a new server using the IP address of my PC.

Definitely hoping they'll release the official cables soon or allow 3rd party to make them. Kinda sucks when my cable broke and no other ways to charge the darn thing.
Really having a hard time only having one cable, and especially since it is a cheap feeling one to start with

Thats what i thought too, but i need to charge it in my car, and it wont charge with any of my cigarette lighter USB chargers because it uses the damn special charger from Asus
Either i wait for a car charger or just buy another charging pack and hook it up to a power inverter in my car
I really wish they would have just used a standard USB connector instead of a USB 3.0 one

I don't get it, what's the point. The phone reads the USB storage? What would the application for such a setup be?
EDIT: Will the phone actually read data from an attached USB drive setup like this? That actually would be super cool if it works that way now that I re-think it (sorry tired from being overseas, my head is kinda out of it). If it works like that I'm in for one for sure.
yes it works natively.you just plug in, wait for the notification to tell you its scanned and its ready to go.
edit: and just like plugging into your computer, make sure you select the unmount option in the notification bar when you are done to keep from corrupting it

Yeah, I don't get it why the tablet market has stayed so strong. I have an iPad 2 for the SOLE reason of it's battery life as a media player when I travel. I literally do NOTHING with it except use it as a media player. Kinda annoying carting it around the world along with my MacBook air, but the battery life at 10 hours just makes it unable to be replaced by a laptop, and the screen size is perfect for airplane\airport\hotels without having to get out the laptop.
do you like your air? ive actually been considering replacing my tablet with an air... i know this is a "love android hate apple" forum but i like what i like. i thought about putting the money i get from the tablet towards oen

I'm not the type to take sides. I've gone from iPhones to Android on the phones, but I've been around the block with Android tablets and they're not fully baked yet. For a tablet I want a dumbed down device that just lasts forever and does 1 thing well - MEDIA. That's why I have iPad 2.
As far as the MacBook air goes, yeah, it's hands-down the best laptop I have ever owned, and I've been around the block. Apple designs a solid laptop, and with the form factor you can't go wrong. I've been Mac for about 5 years, and keep downsizing (Macbook Pro to Macbook to now Macbook air) ... I have an iMac for my primary computer (desktop), and I'd say spend some time with an Air at the store to see if it's a fit for you if you're using as primary computer, maybe consider the 13" (mine is 11").... but it's AMAZING for portability and overall use. Even though it's been out for 2 years it still turns heads in coffee shops and airplanes, and is still as fun to use as the day I got it.
Not really sure why people on here are so anti-mac sometimes. Some of the devs use mac, and there's developer support, but I guess some people just become tunnel-visioned with their fanboyism. I'm an equal opportunity fanboy of Apple and Android. You have to be logical and realize that Apple does some things well, and Android does things well. If people couldn't diversify their selection we'd all have Hyundai Cars, Hyundai Microwaves, Hyundai TVs, and everything the same.... this would would suck that way haha.
Had one of these from my Nokia E6. Works like a champ, but making these 2 USB host each other creates a space time warp. lol

You need an external hub - and the phone needs NTFS support.
I'll add the NTFS modules in my next release, but do note - NTFS drives must be mounted manually to my knowledge.

Yeah, I've got one. It does what it says but a word of warning, it sits loosely when connected to the transformer. It's very handy though as I don't have a dock and so far everything I've plugged into it works well.
I just got mine today (actually 30mins ago).
Already taken it apart and are going to modify it. I dont fancy having 1dm extra height on my tablet, especially not on the underside. (edit: ok I lied, its actually only 8.3cm..... only...)
And yes, it sits quite loosely.
Im going to post a guide if my mod is successful. I am also going to try and add a charger port on it.

I don't know if it would be possible but how about adding another usb port. This would save using a USB hub to connect more than one peripheral to the transformer.

Simply adding another usb port isnt possible, you still need the hub control chip.
That would be possible to do but would require you to make a new 'case' for the adapter, and it would get quite big (relatively).

I really miss a right-click feature when using a mouse while remote controlling a PC :/... not that that has anything to do with the adapter though.
Im not sure I should post my guide on how to add a cable to the adapter... It wasnt my best day and it turned out quite disasterous I somehow managed to kill 2 solder points so had to find alternative source lol
And I gave up on the charging port... I couldnt for the life of me figure out which pins is for charging. The ones I thought (by comparing to the original charger cable) turned out to just short-circut the TF

Hi Guys,
Sony Mobile this morning has announced that a dedicated docking station for the Sony Xperia P is still alive. However, it won’t be called the SmartDock anymore, Sony is calling it the Xperia P TV Dock. So how does it differ from the SmartDock? Well it still has the HDMI output to connect to your TV, but it gets rid of the two USB 2.0 ports.
Do You Like It ?

Why would they take something amazing and kill it. Without being able to plug in a wireless keyboard or mouse, whats the point? Anyone want to bet that they will release a BlueTooth controller to go with this? Its the only way I can see it working now.
I wonder if they did it deliberately to stop people plugging in an external drive full of movies, pushing streaming services instead? It can't be a costs thing surely? A USB hub retails for £1.
And why is it a micro HDMI on the back? If it is to be the core of a home entertainment suite I would want full sized HDMI, for consistency if nothing else (and the fact the cables are 5x cheaper).
What does this possibly give you over a normal phone stand? Where is the USP?
Baffling.
Edit: should have read the post first. The dock itself has BT? WTF? Its like the team that designed it have never used a smartphone before, or are even aware of what device is actually going to be plugged into it.
Opinion revised from Baffling to Bewildered.

I am gonna buy the dock purely to use as a charging cradle for my P so I am HAPPY with the change as it means it will cost less
I'm gonna buy this with the Sony EP851 (since I don't believe it will come with an AC adaptor) which should be out by then and am gonna use this dock to enable the simplest (and prettiest) drop and charge solution I can think of. They could axe the HDMI output too for all I care

Hi Viiv, I think you may want to look at what else is available first. For one, the swap out from a USB hub to a bluetooth solution will add loads to the cost, I would guess this will be around £35. Second, the EP851 is not that special. Oh, and third, because of the BT, it will probably drain power (costing you money) when the phone is not docked.
If you dont care about the BT or the TV out, can I suggest something like this
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150799144967
I have two of these. Each came with a really nice dock and a 1500 ma charger (performs exactly the same as the EP851) a data cable and a charge cable. I estimate the Sony equivalent would be around 6x more expensive (£10 against 35 + 25). As a bonus, the stand I use has a removable spacer, allowing you to dock your phone when it is in a case. I cant see the equivalent on the SXP TV Dock.
True, this is for the SXS, but an SXP version must be on the way.
Oh, and one last thing, the "Sugar Cube" trick worked a treat at removing that nasty logo. Take a white sugar cube, dampen it and rub it over the logo. It is abrasive enough to take the lettering off but not abrasive enough to damage the plastic.
-- Phil
What Bluetooth. There is no Bluetooth in the dock lol. When they say Bluetooth they are referring to the built in Bluetooth of the phone lol.
Instead, the Xperia P TV Dock has Bluetooth which can be used to connect a keyboard and mouse (as long as they support it). The addition of Bluetooth is a sensible move given the plethora of accessories out there

One of them is a logitech. The other is just a generic cable. I will check out monoprice and a few others. I had a bunch of leftover cables and I may need to shop around to find one.
EDIT: Found a Monoprice one that fits. I believe that most from monoprice will fit easily. Going to order a couple.
The hats wrong with the one that came bundled with the tablet? No issues here.
I had tryout 4 USB cable, 3 out of it fit nicely. The only not fit is newer Samsung cable which too fat in general.

I am using a kindle white cable and the sony supplid plug to charge my Tablet Z, but the cable end is about 1mm too wide. I too will be looking for another cable ideally 1.5 metres long, any ideas? (UK)
Does it matter what brand of cable you use to get the best charge, is the plug amperage the only important factor?
I also find the supplied micro usb cable to be way too short. Would a USB extension cable work?

Yes. Maximum length for a USB 2.0 cable is 16 feet (5 meters); however, for reliability, I would not use a cable length over 10 feet (3 meters).

The brand doesn't really matter so much as knowing it is a good quality cable, you don't want some el cheapo half-assed cable that burns your charging port up.
The stock charger fits perfectly as do my Note 2 and old Moto RAZR cords.
I've recently ordered some Fosmon cords that are 6 feet long and should be here in the next couple of days, hopefully they'll work with the XTZ. I'll post some feedback when I get a chance to test them.

Did anyone found working adapter ?
People were saying it must have Display Link Chipset. I order one, but it did not work.
I test it with OEM OP OTG adapter.

USB 2.0, Type-C 1.0 does not support video sharring.
Tried a couple of cable, including my Samsung Dex. No luck. So sad..
I don't know the details to the dot of what you're asking here but i used the only one that found on Amazon that would charge simultaneously as well and work with the ever-o-picky Mate 10 Pro, which it did for it's famous and handy Desktop Version. However, this same cable has null effect on the 6t, i mean, I'm not even talking desktop mode, just regular transfer of the screens content. Nope.
Actually this one, to be exact. Hope it helps someone out there!

Works however too much lag and latency for me... Nice to see some alternative display out options working on the 6t
The one I have doesn't lag.
I tried to plug it to regular one. In usb port. But what end up happening that it works only when charger is not connected. I plug in charger and then screen stop working and it start charging phone (slow speed).

This phone supports Screen Mirroring with a proper cast-enabled device, but no audio, and screen lags.
Probably not what you are after in this case.
