Rooting and Square Trade Warranty. - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

I am interested in rooting my tf201 and installing custom roms when they are made, but I also want to keep warranty on my tablet. Just wondering if anyone has used square trade before and if they cover repairs to a rooted tablet. Also, if a flash went bad and the tablet was bricked, would they cover the repair?

I'm sorry, what's that?
Maybe some pictures would help me understand? I don't know of what would be plastic and keep you from docking, do you mean your glass screen is starting to flex out along the bottom?
Oh! Do you mean the charge port on the Prime or the dock? If that's the case, then likely not. I think under all circumstances a broken charge port is most likely going to be considered Customer Induced Damage, but you never know until you try.

Wow, maybe it's just the angle but it looks like the entire body has a bend to it. Have you tried bending it back yourself? And is the actual charging port ok, it's just all the metal around it that's deformed?
I have no idea if that'll be covered or not, but if you stand your ground and put it down as fact that you have not mistreated your tablet and that the keyboard and charger are the only things that have been in contact with that area, it's a possibility they'll cover it under warranty. That is crazy bent up, it would honestly be a chore for me to even try and make that happen.
Sorry I'm not of much more help, good luck.
Actually you are right the tablet its Bent a little thanks anyway i guess i will my keyboard

That's wild. Yeah, I don't know how they'd handle that. It would be hard to say the dock bent the entire tablet in that way. Totally sucks, how is the screen, no light-bleed or undue pressure you can notice? Looks like someone might have tried testing its durability a little too much lol

I don't know how the dock would cause that though. Who all lives with you, who else would have access to your tablet? I mean, that almost looks like someone put it on the edge of a table then leaned on it or something: I can not see the dock making that dent.
Do me a favor, check that your dock has all its screws in the hinge. At one point I had problems docking, and almost started to get rough/forceful with it until I decided to look down in the hinge. Below my Prime was one of its screws that had come out and was keeping the tablet from sitting right: you could have had a screw come out, and as you were trying to push/twist/whatever you were hitting the screw in different spots?

Closest case to the smart cover that I've seen that's made for the 300.

Sorry but there aren't any smart cases for tf300, nor will be since there are no sensors to detect whether the cover is open or closed

[Q] Replacement LCD : Where to find?

Howdy,
I need a replacement LCD for my TFP. Anyone replace theirs and know a reputable source that's a fairly good price and ships quickly?
Anything else I should know, as in different types or whatnot?
Thanks
There are two types of digitizers so beware of that. There is thread about this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1837997&highlight=lcd+diy

I have a working replacement digitizer. It's the LCD I need.
I think they are sold as pack lcd+digitizer.

They never sell it as a pack!
I got a matching & working LCD here. You should ask the shop to send you a detail picture before you order so you can check if it's the same
Ebay sells several different ones for $65ish dollars...no way would I pay that price + shipping on that site.

Waterproof pouch

I found this on eBay and was wondering does it actually works? Haha I'm planning to buy it for my trip to Bali, just in case my tablet got splashed on the boat or something similar xD not going to risk submerging it though.

I think it would be a great idea to take that pouch with you. It's always better to be safe than sorry. :good:
