[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanzlerin:
Thank you! I asked this question in the main board and Eclair~ linked some pictures. I shrink them down so that the Nexus 7 screen is a big as a 6 inch foto. And it looks great! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28789312&postcount=34

You're right, 7 inch is great for reading. I owned a kindle touch which is almost the same dimension only 2cm shorter, it was much better to hold in my hands and carry around in my purse than my ipads. Only the Kindle was slow and pretty much useless in doing anything else and I'm not always in the mood for books. Nexus 7 is perfect in that regard, everything rolled into one.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ijeff:
The two are not exactly comparable. The text on the 3rd gen iPad is the most crisp, clear, and punchy you'll get from any device today; including desktop and mobile. The Nexus 7 is significantly more washed out with visible pixels at the edges of text. When it comes to display technology, the Nexus 7 and the iPad are not in the same category. If you think the iPhone 4 is worse in terms of clarity (not saturation and contrast) then the Nexus 7 probably isn't for you.

When it comes to form factor however, if you prefer reading from paperback novels, the Nexus 7 will be much more enjoyable. If you prefer textbook, magazine, and newspaper reading formats then the iPad will likely be a better tablet for you.

There's a large price gap between the two that should also be considered.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanzlerin:
iPhone 4 and 4s have very crispy screens with 329.65 PPI, The New iPad's screen has 263.92 PPI. I can occasionally tell that it's not as crispy as my iphone but it doesn't really register. At 215.63 PPI, I'm hoping Nexus can fool my eyes, too. At least for a year, until the next gen devices with better display roll out. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks a bunch but I've downloaded and tried to flash these files and the problem is once the flash process reaches the completion of the install the device will auto reboot and again stop at the boot flash screen.

Even when I try to clear data and factory reset it immediately reboots and stuck again. I hope Samsung has a way to override everything and reinstall the stock firmware.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chinoka236:
Hi guys,

I'm having this issue on my device where if I enable hotspot, my wireless devices (win 7 laptop, iPod touch, and another android phone) can detect and connect to the network but can't connect to internet. I am on stock 4.0.4 and I used the automatic setup for APNs in the settings option.

I'm in the Philippines and on globe telecom network if it matters.

So far I tried restarting my phone, wireless devices - no go. Did a factory reset and didn't help either. Did some search over the net and no one seems to be having the same issue. I'm thinking it's carrier-related but there are very few times(about twice) over the course of my troubleshooting that my iPod connected for a while. I was able to send browse for and download for 10 minutes and didn't connect again after.

Would this be a hardware failure? Or is it just some APN settings that I need to change? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance...

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=da+swype+themes first link and download the themed swype that you want!

i was having problems with them not fitting the screen before. Now I found the trick to make them fit the screen!

Install the themed swype that you want then make sure AUTO ROTATE is enabled!

Tilt the phone horizontally and it should do the trick! when you go back to portrait mode, the new themed swype should be working :D

If people already knew about this, please dont bash on me ;D

look at the before and after pictures attached

I have some other forums that have kept them up until they get heat from Swype to close the threads. So please DO NOT POST THESE LINKS ON ANY FORUMS!!!

Can anyone propose a way i can buy a Nexus 7 from US and then import it to Australia for personal use? since in US nexus 7 is $249 for 16gb, while here down under its $249 for 8gb, and $299 for 16gb, so any ideas?
[General Topics] _MetalHead_:
Can't you scoop it up from an online retailer like ebuyer? Will they ship to Australia?
[General Topics] jt.one:
i could be wrong on this but, after all the charges [tax,ship,customs,blah blah blah] on a n7 tablet from within the USA it might be more expensive than picking one up locally from within australia itself, if you know what i mean.

might be more expensive and definitely is more time-consuming.
[HTC Sensation] SsBloodY:
When upgrading a ROM with only few changes is this the correct procedure? Install the new ROM wipe cache/dalvik without data and you have apps and settings and everything?
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Almost.

Wipe Dalvik and Cache FIRST

THEN overlay the new ROM update.

Always make a nandroid backup first just in case anything goes screwy, especially when you are dealing with CM nightlies. Every once in a while one will have an update that breaks a bunch of stuff. You don't want to be stuck with a broken ROM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] donkindi:
This has been happening for a couple of days now, my Amaze keeps unlocking itself. I'm not sure why, it's hard to go to sleep with it coming on, and illuminating my room. Does anyone know why?

Also, I tried searching, and if someone already posted this, then I am really sorry. :(
[HTC Amaze 4G] Keylogger_0:
First of all, you should have posted this in the correct thread, the Q&A thread. But since this thread is already here, might as well try to help you.

Do you have a case? Because I know that some cases can sometimes unintentionally press the camera shutter button or the power button. Remove any cases and see if the problem occurs without the case.

So, What are these files and can I delete them?

They are on my devices SD Card.

You should be able to long press the image and select "save attachments" after that put a check in the box of the attachment(s) you want to save them click save or download. This is about as far as my advice goes. But it works for me every time.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magus57:
Particularly one that can fit the OEM extended battery (which, speaking of, where's the best/cheapest place to get it)?

I'm used to just going for Otterbox, but the one for the Nexus looks ugly and like a complete lint/dirt magnet (the notification light cut-out part particularly). I already have a thin/light case on the way, which I got before I realized how small my hands are and how cautious I am about not dropping to phone due to a lack of grip when using one-handed - and it's already dropped once and left a tiny scratch on the back...and I've never dropped my phone before getting a Nexus.

So...recommendations? I read about Ballistic and Aegis cases a bit but aren't familiar with them at all. Seidio cases look nice, but no idea what kind of protection they offer. Anything with a plain black base is preferable, color accents would be nice (including pink if it's not too gaudy) - anything with a light base (white especially) is out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] resynx:
I think the Trident Kraken is the most protective case out there. It's not very grippy b/c of the plastic being on the outside though. And it has a kickstand :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magus57:
It looks grippy and rubbery from pictures, it's just a hard/smooth plastic on the outside? It looks nice otherwise, thanks. And is the kickstand plastic or metal?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
I bought an Otterbox Defender series for Galaxy Nexus. It is fitting both the standard and the stock extended battery. It is the only case that has a tough protective material for the display also. Of course, it is stealing a little of the clarity, but it is a fair trade for the toughness that is providing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magus57:
How's the material on the back? I had two Otterbox Commuter cases and found the back to be way too slippery/smooth (it was fine since the phones were small enough to grip easily). And is it possible to remove the screen protector? I already have a good matte screen protector on.

At the moment I'm kinda leaning toward the Trident Kraken for basically being a two-part case and being kinda nice-looking too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ro_explorer:
The material on the back is a VERY grippy silicone. No plastic on the outside.

It is possible to remove the screen protector (I've seen other people doing it) but why in the world would you like to do it?

I bough the case to take the phone out on my mountain biking rides where I really need a tough screen protector not for the scratches but for the rocks :).

I also have a XO screen protector on the display, for regular use.

I'm not using the tough case daily .. it is transforming the phone in the life signs detector used by the Earth crew in Stargate Atlantins :)

---------- Post added at 09:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------

I just recompiled what you wrote ... the otterbox IS two part case .. a polycarbonate case (which has the screen protector) which is fitting in a silicone enclosure ... and you also get a polycarbonate holster for the whole assembly :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgs991099a:
Try out the Seidio Convert case. I use it while at work and it is a pretty nice case!

http://www.seidioonline.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus-convert-case-holster-black-p/bd4-hkr4ssgnl.htm
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] la7lou7a:
I've got the Ballistic. Seriously, it's awesome. I don't fear dropping it and it gives much more protection than the commuter. Says it was designed for the non gsm version, but my gsm with stock battery work perfect, so I guess with the extended it will also work. Very good grip on the back, seriously with the shell and silicon I don'T even think about the grip I sometimes just want to drop it lol. Corners = win.

Also, It looks manly. Fits in pocket, corners sometimes make it harder to pull out/in if you're sitting.

I would try the Seidio convert only if I decide to buy the extended. Looks beastly.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE_Z31IIByw
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] magus57:
I don't care for the screen protector built-in the Defender since I already have a matte screen protector that diminishes the screen quality (and having a clear/glossy protector on top of it would also defeat the purpose of the anti-glare and silky feeling of the matte protector), and while I'm sold in the protection, I'm not sold on the looks of the front (the area around the LED is a bit much if you ask me, and seems like it'd make it difficult to see the LED at certain angles).

The belt clip/holster on any case (Defender included) are useless to me, but a kickstand (that doesn't require a belt clip) is very nice...and as a result I'm kinda stuck between the Seidio Active with kickstand (for price) and Trident Kraken (for looks and being two-part; being able to get different-colored bases for cheap is a huge plus).

Any other suggestions with kickstands would be nice, and I do appreciate the other input/suggestions; while I'm certainly not against multiple cases, I only have money for one and want it to last at least a month.

And yeah, "manly" looks aren't exactly a pro for me =P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] npalmy:
I bought the Defender in pink so could use the extended battery, and I wanted something rugged. My husband got the Trident Kraken. His looks nicer but he complains that it is too slippery. Not sure if there is a perfect case out there :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CodeMonkey:
Got mine from a Korean seller on eBay (think it was shim shop or similar - had good seller ratings). Took a while to arrive but its the real deal.

SGS Hybrid and Zenus cases are fine with the bigger battery, but not very heavy duty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] poormansupra:
Trident kraken is by far the most protective and will fit both stock and extended battery. It's not as grippy as the defender but it's by far better quality and the kickstand can be taken out and other accessories like gps mount, bike mount, desk mount, and tripod can be used with the case
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ebagdirtbike:

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaintedCross:
Hey guys so I just got an HTC HD7, I'm new to window phones this is my first one and I was looking for advice as far as customizing and getting the best experience out of my phone possible. Thanks in advance.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Well, if you want full control and don't mind getting your hands just a little dirty, you can install a custom ROM that will give you access to pretty much everything. The first step is to downgrade the bootloader using GoldCard; there are instructions on the Dev&Hacking sub-forum. The next step is ton install HSPL (probably you want the v3 for gen1 HTC phones version), which is the unlocked bootloader. Same forum. After that, you can install a custom ROM, which will generally all be posted under the HD7-specific forums.

If you want lots of control but want to stick with a stock ROM, things get a little trickier. You'll need two things: a firmware version of *.*.4XXXX.* or below, and a developer unlock. The first will probably require flashing a stock ROM, and then not immediately letting the phone update again. The second can be done a few either by buying an AppHub account from Microsoft, or by using DreamSpark to get a free one if you're a student. There is a third way, the original ChevronWP7 Unlocker, but it's a real pain in the ass to make it work now (it only worked on very old versions of the OS). Once you've got the compatible firmware version and your dev-unlock, install HTC Interop Unlock from Heathcliff74 and follow its instructions. Once interop-unlocked, install WP7 Root Tools (also by Heathcliff74) and follow its instructions. Both are on the dev&hacking subforum here. You now have "rooted" your phone and may mark apps as able to run with full permissions, plus you have full access to your phone's filesystem and registry.

As for apps, poke around the Dev&hacking, General, and Software Development subforums here. One good place to start is Bazaar, an alternate Marketplace app for WP7 that supports discovering, installing, and updating homebrew apps.
