Asus TF300T Tablet: How to disable the touch screen functionality in an Asus TF300T Tablet

Mon, 14 Sep 2015 12:00:32 -0700

I have a cracked screen and the tablet doesn't react to touch any more. I believe it's fully functional otherwise so I bought a docking station in order to make the best of the mini HDMI port and connect my tablet to the TV permanently and control it via a USB mouse.

However, I was disappointed to find out that although I can see the mouse cursor, after connecting the mouse, I am unable to click anything because the tablets touch sensor seems to be completely out of whack. Once, the on-screen keyboard activated by itself somehow, and I saw that the touch sensor is 'clicking' randomly on many spots of the screen at once and it's impossible to do anything with the mouse.

I saw a video on Youtube of a guy disabling just the touch screen functionality on his Nexus 7 by disconnecting one small cable once he had opened the tablet.

Is such a thing possible in the TF300T ? I am sitting right now, with an opened tabled and watching Youtube videos with disassembly instructions, but I cannot find this one thing that would help me because they concentrate on either replacing the whole screen or on complete disassembly.

Asus TF300T Tablet: Where can I get reliable Asus Parts?

Tue, 30 Jul 2019 19:01:37 -0700

My tablet has a myriad of isues, mainly faulty external speaker (a buzzing sound comes alonside the actual sound when the TABLET's external speaker is in use, it doen't happen through the headphone jack or bluethooth), missing chunks of the midframe (still works), and a non funtional digitizer.

Where can I find a reliable seller of these parts:

Midframe

External Speaker

Batery (both docking and tablet)

The screen adhesive

Asus TF300T Tablet: White section on LCD

Fri, 14 Jun 2019 05:56:25 -0700

Hi,

a white section started appearing on the top of the screen.

There also is a small crack on the screen itself (not on the digitiser) and a small leak, partially visible on the right side of the photo.

Digitiser itself works alright.

Also, no part of the displayed area is missing due to the white section. The displayed area is just fully resized to the working part of the display.

Photo: https://pasteboard.co/GNdWu5v.jpg

Would it be broken LCD (due to the crack)? Or a cable / connection problem? Or other hardware problem?

Thank you,

Jan

Asus TF300T Tablet: WiFi authentication no joy.

Thu, 07 Jun 2018 07:48:06 -0700

My pad worked 2 years ago, before it went into storage. Now, it connects to a public WiFi, says it is strong, but the WiFi requires a password. When I enter that, it repeats the same log in screen, and never accepts the password. I have an iPad that accesses the WiFi fine. 2 years ago it was able to get on wifi’s no problem if public or private. One message does pop up when this happens, but it is gone in a flash.

Tried the typical turn off WiFi, reboot, airplane mode, reboot,, not sure what else to try.

Thanks for any input.

Asus TF300T Tablet: Charge Port repair same for TF0310 as TF300T?

Wed, 14 Jun 2017 10:59:04 -0700

Fairly certain the charging port on my mother's Asus TF0310 Transformer Pad is going bad again. (Replaced once already by BestBuy but their protection plan apparently doesn't cover refurbished items anymore so they won't do it again.) Would the process detailed here for the TF300T be the same for my mother's TF0310?

Asus TF300T Tablet: Why aren't apps responding

Thu, 02 Mar 2017 17:49:19 -0700

Apps stopped responding and then it quit. Wouldn't turn on even after being charged. It sat for a week, recharged it but took about 10-15 min for any apps to respond. Then worked so I did virus scan and cleaned it. Worked for an hour, quit again, charged it and still it won't turn on

Asus TF300T Tablet: The audio scket plastic shroud is broken

Sun, 14 Jun 2015 22:56:43 -0700

What is the best way to replace the audio socket? Either replace the actual socket or is it more effective to replace the circuit board it is attached to? I have soldering expertise but am not familiar with any surface mount components.

Where can I purchase replacement parts as I do not get any cooperation from my ASUS Australian service departments. Sydney or Melbourne,

Regards

My tablet took a pretty good fall while in its case, landing flat. There was no damage to the external glass but now the top 25% is black. The screen still responds correctly and accurately to touch.

What part should I be replacing to get the full screen back?

Thanks

Asus TF300T Tablet: Can TF300T motherboard be used in ME301T?

Fri, 13 Mar 2015 00:46:44 -0700

I read somewhere that both Asus TF300T and ME301T tablets use the same hardware. My question is: can there motherboards (PCB) be interchanged (used for the other)? In other words, do they use the same motherboards?
