Will this work while the cover is on the tablet (original Sony cover) or I have to remove the cover every time I plug it in?

The cover I have (from Sony) has a cutout where the metal contacts are, so I can keep the cover on. If yours is the same then you keep the cover on!

Yes. When the cover is closed the tablet screen goes off. When the cover is opened the screen comes on.

Yes I was able to use my tablet while in use. It is as same as plugging in to the wall charger.

Yes Mam it worked perfect as soon as it is plugged in My wife loved it the only problem was it tends to slide out of the case so I got a small piece of Velcro and attached it to the back and that problem was resolved. You can get Velcro at Wal-mart cheap make sure it is the type with a sticky tape like backing. \m/{-.-}\m/

As far as I know the cover still has the magnet closure. It has no affect on the function of the tablet.

I use the "Type" keyboard. To clarify, this is a 2-piece cover and the portion of the cover that the keyboard fits into stays put. However, the portion that fits the actual tablet is only secured by two elastic corners. As a result, it usually comes off when the tablet is opened. I also have trouble getting the stylus to stay on when using this cover, but I actually have trouble with this even without it. Since I rarely use the stylus anyway, this is not a big deal for me. The cover stays together well when the tablet is closed. Overall, I am satisfied with it. Hope this helps!

It does NOT turn off when you close the case and that is very disappointing. The keys will touch the opposite side of the case, or the tablet, activating the keys and using battery. Also, the keys DO hit the tablet and I fear it will scar or scratch the surface of the tablet. I'll to buy a protector for the tablet today to prevent this. This should be unnecessary! But, keyboard works great.

The cover won't touch the screen so it'll work just fine. Taking the cover off is not too bad. You gotta pry a little bit, but I haven't had any issues taking it off.

Mine did the same thing but I dont remember how exactly I figured it out but I just opened the back and I found out the charging piece wasnt attached no more that could be whats wrong with yours .. but I kinda just improvised and put a folded up little peice of paper on the top of just that area and closed the tablet I dont really know how to fix it

Well i have a for instance for u. I had a brand new, shiny one installed on my tablet when my frisky kitten bit the corner of my tablet in play and left a bite mark on the shield. Stuff happens. I didn't replace it because it was at the edge of my screen and didn't impact my view, but was good to have the spare in case &#128512;

The cord plugs into the back of the cradle and the tablet slides into the charger.It is a snug fit.There are two metal tabs on the tablet that come in contact with metal tabs on the cradle and that's where it charges. My cover allows you to slip off bottom of the cover so you can slide it into the charger. But I usually just slip the whole cover off if I am going to use the tablet while its charging.

I have this case & LOVE it! I have to slide my keyboard a little bit to get charger plugged in but I do not have to remove it entirely! It's really not that big a deal! And it works a very long time between charges which is great! Hope this helps!

Mine will not play while charging. I'm using it with a Samsung tablet.Update: After it had charging for about 10 minutes or so, I turned it off and on and then it worked. It was totally dead when I plugged it in, so that may have had something to do with it.

Nothing like that has happened with mine. I've used the same one on my tablet since I got them with no problems at all.

Yes, it shouldn't interfere. I have a Smart Cover too and it continued sending the screen to sleep when I closed it having te iVisor on.

Yes it works fine but the only problem is that the jack for our on tablet is in a very awkward place and can be damaged easily if not unplugged before closing cover

No you will have to take it out of the cover because it slides into the cradle. There are connector sensors on each side of the tablet for the cradle to sense. The power cord connects in the back of the cradle.
