Nexus 7: Page 6

Okay...if I wake my N7 while in contact with the screen odd things happen. Basically, there are dead zones on the screen that won't respond to my touch.

In the spirit of being team players why don't we share our home screens here?

Hey, sorry for the silly questions but I was trying to figure out if I rooted my Nexus 7 right. I just got a Nexus 7 this past weekend and rooted it yesterday.

I need a listing of apps and performance tools that I can use to benchmark my N7 prior to customizing (and rooting) it.

I can't get online by tethering my N7 with another device. Every time I try to connect I simply get the "web page not available" message.

Does Google store my wireless network passwords on their cloud? I believe they do and if so isn't this a security issue?

Okay, I need to check my GPU Clock speed/frequency. Is there an App that can assist or?

Okay, my brother borrowed my Nexus 7 and now I am getting distortion. If sounds like my speaker is blown but I am unsure. Is there some sort of audio test I could run to find out if there is an issue?

Simple question and I think the answer is no but...

I was thinking about using a stylus with my Nexus 7. Anyone currently doing this and if so do you have a recommendation?

I saw they related Carbon for Twitter but I just read they don't have a version that works with the Nexus 7 (or tablets in general).

I like the idea of having an area that we can list themes.

How do I do this?

Outside of the immediate cost difference could someone tell me the advantages (or disadvantages) of the Nexus 7 versus an iPad Mini?

I need to find an HDMI adapter that will work with the Nexus 7. Any suggestions?

So, how can I re-install the bootloader on my Nexus 7?

I have been seriously thinking about buying a Nexus 7 but have been reading some negative feedback. Given that people like to be little haters could I get some positive feedback on the device to help me make up my mind?

The title should be self-explanatory. Hopefully, I am not the only person seeing this issue...

People, I have owned a few tablets and noticed that the Nexus 7 damages a lot easier (and I mean a lot) than any other tablet. My Motorola XOOM is over a year old and it still looks great. My Nexus 7, which is only a few months old, has been easily scratched by what I would consider trivia brushing. Anyway, lesson learned. Don't wait and get immediate protection for your device (despite the high cost of accessories for such an inexpensive device).

I am not talking about Skype. How would I configure my Nexus 7 to operate as a phone?

I want to add multi-tasking buttons to both ends of my screen. Can I do so in a simplified fashion without having a custom ROM and/or root?

In the spirit of doing a good turn daily I am starting a running list of apps that do not work on the Nexus 7.

I need a concise list summarizing the pros and cons of encrypting my Nexus 7. You have my eternal gratitude in advance.

I was just assigned the rotten (I mean wonderful) task of listing the pros and cons for using the Nexus 7 as a "productivity" tool in our office. Anyone else using the Nexus 7 or any other Android tablet in a similar fashion?

Last night, I was using a Bluetooth speaker - made by Logitech - with my Nexus 7 but kept loosing connectivity. I went ahead and paired with another speaker from a different manufacturer and kept having the same issue. Is this problem universal to the Nexus 7?

Last night I fell asleep while watching a movie. My battery was already low so I assume the charge ran out. Now, my Nexus 7 will not recharge. What now?!

My screen flickers in a very annoying way. I have noticed this typically occurs when I am in low lighting conditions. Is this unique to my device or has anyone else had similar issues?

I moved my music from iTunes to my Nexus 7 (via my Google Play Music Manager). However, I can't seem to play any of my music without using my WiFi connection. As you can imagine, this sucks. How do I free myself of this annoying dependency?

Obviously Google doesn't expect people to use the camera on the Nexus 7 since I can't seem to find an app on the tablet.

I have a nephew heading to college this summer. He is going to be a liberal arts major and plans on writing a lot. Since it is his birthday next month I was debating the merits of buying him a Nexus 7 versus a Chromebook.

Hey, I recently upgraded to Jelly Bean and thought that my battery was the only thing going to take a hit.

For reason's known only to myself I am going to configure my Nexus 7 to run multiple ROMs (side-by-side).

Yeah, I have encountered a few and I am sure you have as well.

Glorious news Brothers and Sisters!

Good question. I encourage additional clarifications but here is my opinion of the term.

It is a dirty tireless job...but I am looking for community members that stand above their peers. Individuals who actually believe that can make a difference. Together we can rule this Universe as Father and son...or as Father and daughter.

I have been trolling WonderHowTo for the past 3 years (actually since I began to root Android and jailbreak iOS smartphones, that is, if you actually consider Apple products to be "smart."). Anyway, I started this forum (and the Samsung Galaxy S3 Forum) because I actually bricked a few devices - which, as you can imagine, really screwed up my day - and wanted a place in which we could share lessons learned (or whatever).

One of the issues most commonly complained about with the Google Nexus 7 is speaker defects. Some people have issues with their tablets freezing when using the built-in speakers, others say they were pretty much busted right out of the box.

Those new Nexus 7's sure are nice. Unfortunately, a number of those shiny new tablets have a manufacturing issue that makes the screen uneven with the bezel. Google's solution is to have you send it back in, but why waste your time considering the problem can be fixed by simply adjusting a single screw.

Google's Nexus 7 tablet has just been released, and for only $199, it seems like a great deal. Now, some of you are probably immediately thinking that you're going to want to root this thing as soon as possible to install all of your tweaks. Luckily, some clever hackers have already developed a fairly automated solution to rooting the device. Here's how it works.
