[Q] Lapdock mousepad and disassembly

I modded my webtop and now am loving everything about it and my lapdock except one thing: The crappy mousepad. This thing's sensitivity is all whack and the buttons are so hard to push. Just curious if anyone has modded theirs or knows of a solution. Does anyone have a disassembly guide? Can the buttons be made to click easier? If I had that change alone, I would be a happy camper.

any good hdmi cable?

i'm looking for a hdmi cable for my tf300 (so i need a micro hdmi to hdmi cable)
on amazon i saw this one has good reviews but it's kinda expensive considering it's too short. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004286VMW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&smid=A1DCPNQKKEISZB
but other cheaper cables have review like "after a few days/weeks of use it broke". so i'm not sure if the one above is worth price, should i buy it?

I have that cable it is works fine, if 6 ft is to short for you get an HDMI coupler and use another HDMI cable to make it longer. I have done this too.
Look here for coupler:

thanks.
but i just found this one for the same price and it's 10 feet long which is enough for me (i guess)
also got 5 star review from 21 people, looks promising. already ordered
Ebay!!

Well, there you go.... Enjoy!
Now I remember the tablet aspect ratio is 16:10 but my tv aspect ratio is 16:9. So what's gonna happen?

changes the tablet to 16:9 actually, meant for normal HDTVs. oddly, output to my 16:10 monitor is wonky, only seem to get 640x480 or some garbage. sad as its my tv/movie screen.
using the cable i bought with my Droid X2, was $20 when i got it, works fine, 6ft

so when i connect the tablet to my tv using the cable, the tablet will automatically change to 16:9?
and i forgot to mention that the main reason i want to see things on my big TV is because i want to watch youtube videos, everyday there are many videos that update news,... (like cnettv, theverge), and i just figured out i can't turn off the screen while watching with hdmi, because if i turn off the screen then on tv the it's just going to be black too.
so what's the point of using hdmi? i have to leave 2 screens on when i only need 1, that will drain the tablet battery, won't it? i think i could save battery if i can turn the screen of the tablet off.
any solution for this?
Any cheapo one will work, I got one for like $2-3 on Amazon and it had worked just fine since I got it months ago.

5.1
Any one how makes 5.1 Dolby Digital out of the TF300? I cant get it with micro HDMI cable.
http://www.mobiletechreview.com/tablets/Asus-Transformer-Pad-TF300.htm says
The TF300 can output 3D content to a 3D TV over HDMI and it supports 5.1 audio out over HDMI. 5.1 audio worked fine in our tests; in fact it was much more reliable than the finicky Prime.

Did you try playing games using HDMI? I have my Samsung galaxy SIII HDMI and when I use it like playing Racing game output in tv is a few seconds late so you will end up crashing a lot...:cyclops:
Anyone have try gaming using big screen and any recommendation of a good quality HDMI cable? I'm planning to get the 10 feet that nooktablet gave in this link.

Yes I play riptide gp on HDMI with my tf300 and it run smoothly really fun, and I use that HDMI cable. I have tried other games like extreme skater, jetpack joyride, (which are not racing games) and they run smoothly too.
FYI, that $9 10 foot HDMI cable is really long enough for me, and it's a micro HDMI to HDMI cable
I recently got a $7 25 foot HDMI to HDMI cable for my computer. I mean it's very cheap, $2 cheaper than the one for my tf300 and 15 more feet longer and working awesome. So maybe you can find one for your tablet really cheap
I just bought this 15ft HDMI cable and It'll be interesting to see how well it's made. I'll post a review when I get it. :good:

Also, the high pitch noise that occurs when recording video w/ the TF300T is all but gone when playing through HDMI. This is gonna be SWEET for movies and games!!!!!! 15 FT of cable......

I can't wait for your feedback so I bought this from ebay. Bought it last Monday and got it by Wednesday, 10 FT and Gold plated, right fit in the tablet and TV and long enough to sit my tablet to table and I can sit comfortably to our couch. I notice a few screen flicker last Wednesday but yesterday none. I can say I can play videos/youtube without any lag but for games I can say ok, it's somewhat blurry for RipTide when you use nitro but for NFS Most wanted it's fine. sound was also great I can really feel I'm in the race.
Can you try the same test for racing games especially riptide? thanks!

I don't own Riptide bit NFSMW displays perfectly. I've been considering purchasing Riptide. If I do I'll report back and let you know.

Best MHL adapter for 1080P and charging

Hey guys, just wondering if anybody has experience with an MHL adapter for our Droid DNA's that does 1080P and charges the phone? I bought one from amazon here, but it would only display 720P and the charging didn't work. So, any success stories? I'd rather not spend $30 on one of these if I can help it.

How can you easily tell if it's 720p or 1080P? I have a cheap adapter from Amazon, for my Galaxy Nexus, that works better with the DNA.
I would'nt recommend the one I got as the plug had no pins in it. But that's another option to look for.

I think most TV's display that in the upper right hand corner when a new device is connected. I've got a really cheap HiSense tv and it gives me that info. I ordered one off ebay I saw in another thread, I will update here if it does both of those things I wanted.
Well unfortunately still no 1080p, anybody know if out might have anything to do with the kernel or Rom?

Note II audio cuting out coming out of the audio jack

My note 2 has been to hell and back, cracked screen soft bricked for a week and all this stuff. It's almost working perfectly now except only when it is in my pocket with headphones connected it cuts out. When watching videos in landscape with it out of my pocket it doesn't cut out. I relly need help with this.

The searching for a controller mount / holder for S4....

Hi Everyone!
Im searching for a working holder (mount) for S4. Onto a Xbox One or a Dualshock 4 controller.....
I tried chinese controllers (Ipega,etcetc), every one of them was a trash with **** analogue stick, bad deadzones...
The Xbox One controller and the dualshock 4 working fine with the S4. I found Sony GCM10, but its discontinued, i cant buy it from anywhere.... I found mounts/holders to DS4/One gamepad for smaller phones (6inch) but i cant find any good mount for the Tab S4.... Im playing streamed games from my pc on the S4 with these two controllers, but its very uncomfortable without a controller mount....
Any tips, links,help? Maybe a GCM10 for sale?
Thanks!
This company prints them in 3D so there are many combinations of phones/tablets and gamepad. The problem with them is that they are a bit fragile and bulky (you can't store them in a pocket) but they do the job well.

An advice: choose the over the top variant because this tablet is heavy and the front rider is more tiring (simple physics).
