Thanks in advance
The quality of construction of these parts are very poor (the joint parts break themeselve so easily) so I'm happy if there is other brand (not asus) that produce them

Thanks,
it's exactly I was looking for... but 50,44 euros for the alluminium frame are a theft!
Most TF's that are unfortunate enough to suffer some kind of trauma ends up with a broken or cracked screen. I'm surprised you can't find a replacement screen anywhere... at all.

Has anyone found a cheaper alternative for the bezel? I figured it would be like 10 bucks when I tore mine off out of frustration over the sticky power button... now the back is falling off lol.
Also want to buy the bezel.
C'mon, china brothers, start to make them! You will have million orders!
on Asusparts.eu with shiping it costs 71 Eur. ... Almost $100 for cheap aluminium frame ... Will their bezel do BJ ?
As of lately, is there anyone who has found a site in the USA which sells the parts? Don't really want to order my part from Sweden... I need a Power/Volume daughter board, its about $89 shipped from sweden... really want it sooner than 5-6 weeks.

I'm hoping someone can help me out here.. For some reason the infrared port cover on the bottom of my Hermes is missing. It's the black plastic piece thats on the left of the soft-reset button. Anyone happen to know where I can purchase a new one? Dust, etc. gets into it and it may cause problems.
Anyone know where to get one?
a broken 8525 or tytn or any other family member on ebay? This woudl benefit because you have other pieces as spares just incase.
Hey, i would even send you a few dollars for the little black round plug that covers the antenna port on the back of the phone (I'm currently using a black pencil eraser).
you could also buy a replacement OEM case from the company that has been linked on this forum a few times.

Hi everyone,
Due to a certain female acquaintance of mine my phone has suffered some medium-serious cosmetic damage.
The screen has a large scratch on it and the reflective bezel is chipped in multiple places.
I contacted the authorised HTC repairer in Australia and I got a quote for ~400 AUD.
I have looked around and found that I can buy the screen/digitizer separately but haven't found where to obtain the bezel. Would anyone be able to help me? I'm comfortable repairing the phone on my own.
Thanks for any help in advance
What about ebay?

Anyone knows where to get a replacement? I think it's what it's called. It's the small plastic cap on top of the phone over the cable socket. Lost mine at some point...
There is probably no replacement for this. Either live with it or replace the whole housing.

Why would you replace an entire case for a lost dust cap?
I'd be very happy if that thing fell off. Makes it impossible to plug charger in in the dark or with one hand!

You mean they last more that two days then It is so much easier to connect the cable without it - shame there isn't a thing to fill the holes it leaves behind though (aside from the USB one that is).
Go to a site called "netimes.com" and type "micro usb" into there search box .I.ve ordered a pair already, will let you know what they're like when they arrive.

The black casing does not show the dust cap, whereas the white casing does...
Yup, true genius engineering design went into that usb connector. (Same guy tested the in-call volume in a sound proof room).
What?!?! Put the connector at the bottom and be like everyone else?? No X10 owner would want to put the device into a docking stand. That would just be foolish.
My previous phone, an HTC Cruise, has the connection at the bottom with no cover. In more than a year of being in my shirt pocket on a daily basis the mini-usb never got any dust in it. At least not enough to ever prevent a good usb connection.
Hi guys,
This happened to me
Bought a Transformer Prime, and got the glass broken. The LCD screen itself is OK, the tablet is working just fine, but the glass is cracked.
Spent 3 days searching, nothing. There are all kinds of parts for TF101, but TF201 -- not.
Went to service guys, they want 400 bucks for the replacement: they say they can replace the LCD screen AND the glass. Obviously this makes no sense since the brand new TF201 costs about $500 for 32 GB version (which I have).
Ideally, finding the glass with digitizer would solve the problem, but so far I can't find it.
Checked the asusparts.eu website, but not sure if these are the right ones (and, still, they are quite expensive since I don't need LCD screen itself, the screen itself is just fine)
If someone has and idea where to get it/search for it, it would be great.
Thanks
you bought it with broken glass? Why you just don't return it?
Send it back to ASUS, and see what they will charge you to replace the glass.

Yep, I've already asked Asus.
Asus said go to the authorized service center in your city. That authotized official service center said $400 for repair
Not sure if its any help to you but i'm just waiting a reply from Asus for the cost of replacement glass hopefully have it at some point today
same here, the glass is cracked on my ATP. and its only like 1 week old. SO FRUSTRATING!!!. but im trying to look for the replacement glass as well cuz the lcd itself is not broken but haven't found anything yet, i called asus to see what they would say but all they said was to RMA it. and they would have someone "check it out" and see if it will cover under my warranty. i didn't break it intentionally, i received the unit with a bend on above the power connector so it was difficult to plug in the connector. i didnt see it as a big issue, until i plug it in and the bend on the connector bent upwards and cracked my screen (gorilla glass my ***!!!). So knowing big companies like asus they arent going to cover my ATP and if they do offer to repair it, it will be some ridiculous price. and i been looking for a replacement glass but nothing . keep this thread going and post if you do find something, im afraid that since the ATP is still backordered everywhere that companies and independent companies arent going to have the replacement parts for awhile. hopefully this isnt the case and we can get something soon.
I'd say a SquareTrade warranty is an excellent investment for this tablet. $70 (after 30% coupon) for 2 years of drop protection is a bargain. I've already dropped my Prime once . Luckily, all I have to show for it is a scratched corner (it was in a case).
You can get a SquareTrade warranty within 90 days, so pretty much everyone is still eligible.

This ^^^
I always shirk silly insurance things, but SquareTrade is awesome. I personally don't use it, I'm confident in how I treat my possessions (accidents can always happen, but...), but it is amazing to see a relatively cheap service that covers most personal faults.
And yeah, I dunno what I'd do if my screen was already broken. We won't start seeing parts or units for parts for some time...
Same problem here.
They designed TF201 such way, that the glass is 1 mm ahead of frame (not like on ipad) so during the hit, glass takes all the damage on itself.
Asus must do something about that because everyone will drop their unit someday.
Cracked screen
This just happened to me too. Pulled my Prime out and opened it up to discover a hair line fracture all the way across the screen. Tablet has never been dropped and always stored in a padded case folded up against the keyboard/dock like a laptop. Contacting Asus to see what my options are. The crack is so fine I didn't even notice till I went to fold it back up. I was gonna post a video, but don't have 8 posts yet. But if you search youtube for "asus transformer prime cracked screen" it'll come up.
Clearly there is a serious issue with all these cracked screens with people using docks. I think ASUS should address this... I dont think I will get a dock anymore.

I think it is definitely an issue.
It's happening because there's not enough padding on the front end of the keyboard IMO, it only has that one little rubber thing.
My Prime is in a minisuit, which actually jumps to the other extreme: it won't quite close all the way. But I think this is the only reason I have not opened it and found a cracked screen, even though I toss it around and generally try not to baby it.
They need more support opposite the docking mechanism, it's causing the top-end of the Prime to squish down especially at the corners while the bottom-end has no more room to get closer to the keyboard. These broken screens are the result.
You could use a case like me or even just put some little rubber tabs on the corners of the keyboard to prevent this happening, but it's ridiculous considering it's constantly pictured as such a netbook replacement and using it like such could damage it.

Just a suggestion to everyone with a cracked screen--I know this isn't the most convenient option, but I think it might be the cheapest one you are going to find. From my experience, hot items like this with broken glass still sell for about 80% for their original value on ebay. I haven't checked to see what broken primes are going for right now, but it might be worth checking out. Sell for 400, but new for 500--about 100 to fix the screen.

Doesn't it only cost about $70 at repair centers or whatever? Guess it depends on your location and situation...

Another broken screen
Just took my TF201 out of it's padded laptop bag this morning to find a crack across the corner of the screen. No dropping, no rough handling - it just appeared seemingly overnight. After weeks of frustration with random reboots and app crashes (which were only solved yesterday with the 9.4.2.15 update) I think I've had my fill of this unit.
Update - And, yes, the unit was docked when this occurred.
Final update: Contacted Asus about repairing the screen and was put in touch with a service provider in Sydney. Total cost (incl. parts, labour, and shipping): $400. When I responded that I might as well buy a new tablet the receptionist replied "That's right."
Wow I just bought a dock which I greatly debated on getting. I may have to return it after all. I don't wanna end up with a cracked screen.

I sent mine to Texas after receiving RMA#. I've been waiting over 3 weeks to have it fixed. Tried to buy the cap but could not find it anywhere. I have only found port cover for Xperia phone Z but wasn't sure if they match those on the tablet. Anyway it is fixed now and recently I bought a cradle and it works great. I think it is a must to avoid damaging those covers. Pricey but I think it looks good, functions properly and it is great for watching movies, playing games and typing.
Bottom line send the tablet back to Sony and in the same time get a cradle and you will not have any issues with the tablet's waterproof tabs.

Thanks. I am sure the cradle is the best solution but not very practical when traveling and charging on the road on trains or air plains.
the cap must have a design flow if it breaks only after a couple of weeks.
Agreed. It was not the greatest engineering marvel. Cradle is in fact very thin and it fits the tablet very snug so I don't see any problem of taking it with me when I go. The threaded plug port with an o-ring would have been much better solution than that cheesy tab. But then again not many people would have bought a cradle. It is a good product but like most electronics it has its flows. My advice try not to open those tabs too often or better avoid opening them altogether. They will last forever. Bluetooth headphones, cradle, WiFi can easily facilitate it.

I would prefer that Sony replaced these, but they told me that when the tiny piece of plastic bends and breaks that it's considered physical damage. I find that odd that a main selling point is its resistance to damage but the part that protects from damage breaks off with normal use. I had to settle for replacement covers I found on ebay.

I also bought one from ebay but i have no idea how to replace it. did you already replace it and if so how ?
I had this situation that the cap got bend because I forgot to put it back after closing the tablet cover over it. I was able to bend it a bit the other side and also notice the little pin needed to be straighten so that it will fit back in place. This is when I notice the hole next to the usb to be used when the cap is open you insert the cap pin in it.

I don't know if that could work as a replacement part: something that looks like the current part, but with an extra rubber plug that would fit inside the mini usb port to hold it in place...
Seems like I now have a reason to get a 3D printer :S
**EDIT***
I remembered something I saw a few years back, is called Sugru, a moldable rubber that cures and can be used for almost anything. Search them out on Google.

well the problem with removing the back is that it is not waterproof any more when you put it back on
here is a link from where i got mine : battery-cover.de/product_info.php?info=p102_abdeckung-usb-anschluss-tablet-z-weiss-black.html
Btw are you talking a bout a video of replacing the cap or a video about dissabling the tablet ?
From what I've seen the tab cover has a "nipple" which can be squeezed and pushed through the hole (from the inside of the tablet). I don't think it is easily or even possible to do it from the outside. Besides I think the back panel acts like a gasket and seals the inside so I don't understand why would the tablet lose its waterproof capability. Do you have any bad experience?? Besides I don't see why could not you smear very fine silicon layer around the mating parts and make it 100% waterproof! Disassembly is here: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zczfTnBFqtA
Good luck and let us know how did you make out.

It is a pure rip off. Piece of plastic and rubber priced like silver! Even more reasons now to buy the cradle. Too bad you can't use it for USB transfer. It is a big design flaw and I have no idea why did Sony make such cheap and lousy part!
