Is there a way to get the launcher with out the app drawer setup. I like the way i can organize my app via tw, but like the way the home screen, and the setting are setup.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] deezhemi:
I don't think I understand your question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mahanddeem:
You can arrange,hide or gather with the app drawer exactly like the sr tw launcher..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] galaxyuser88:
Well you can only arrange them alphabetically, last used, last installed, newest installed

You can't arrange by page, or type. Like my 1st page is phone app, 2nd page is all root based programs, 3rd page my business stuff, 4 th page is my games. But i want the 5 icons on the bottom of the home page.

I apologise in advance if this is in the wrong place - I'm a first time poster.

I picked up an ITWorks TM701 for seventy quid from Comet this week. For the money it's not so bad (capacitive screen, 1Ghz A8, 512MB etc) but it does have drawbacks - no calendar, no official market, no Bluetooth.

Anyone have any ideas how I can root it and if there are any ROMs out there that might give me full Google Play access?

Thanks in advance,

[General Questions and Answers] GTIMKV:
This might be a stupid question, but here's what I want to do:

I want to call certain domestic numbers using my Google voice number, but I don't want to choose between GV or stock dialer every time I make calls, nor do I want to use GV for all calls. Most of the time when I call I still want to use the stock dialer.

Unfortunately, it seems that the GV app only give me these 2 options for domestic calls. Is it possible to dial directly from GV app using GV number? On iPhone I can just open GV app and there's a dialer I could use. On Android (tried Galaxy Nexus and Razr) there seems to be no such choice.

If I set it to "ask me everytime", it will made direct dial less inconvenient, especially while driving (with bluetooth), since you will have to press one more time to choose whether GV will be used.

Maybe I am missing something? If this is how things should work, then GV integration on Android device is not good for everyone. There should be a choice to use the GV dialer.

ordered 1 8GB and 1 16GB on June 27th from the google play store for a total of $544

CC not charged at the moment for this receipt from google, no emails since in regards to shipment or order

I've called around to many retailers and most are either unaware or not stocking the product, while only a handful are getting in shipments on Monday.

Not sure if its worth the hassle of buying a N7 in store on Monday and dealing with google to ship back one of the 2 that I ordered or if I should just wait, I feel frustrated that I went right to the source to place a pre-order for a product but retailers are selling it before I get any notice on when I'll get mine.. then I remember I live in a first world country and there are bigger injustices taking place around the globe.

Later I'll go have sex with my supermodel girlfriend on my yacht.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
I can't imagine brokerage fees.

If there are, and we pay, I'd like to think we can get Google to eat them.

Google gave no indication this was via cross border shipping. I figured they'd be shipped from within Canada, and that's a reasonable assumption unless our vendor, Google Canada, said otherwise.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cas_xp:
No way, I did remove my credit card info, but I got charged when I got shipped notification. I should call my credit card to report my credit card lost and it will be a new credit card number, I think.

When I send the package back to UPS store, will UPS charge me shipping fee?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exino:
I would think that if you had received it as opposed to rejecting it, you would be liable for return fees, unless Google agrees to cover it. If you reject directly with UPS I would think they can't do anything about it then.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fast1fred:
The Google CSR I spoke to said that, as long as you don't open the package, you can still reject the delivery by bringing it to the UPS store, and get a full refund.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickytenzer:
Got a repackaged box at Staples this morning. Checked it out, looks fine and it has a 14 day return policy.

Only issue is the $25 credit which didn't appear in my Gmail. I will have to call Google about that later.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exino:
I think we'll eventually see people exploiting this, since the $25 credit is built into the activation, so anyone who buys and returns really is getting $25.00 credit every time.

I called the Google Play number for devices 1-855-83-NEXUS. I noticed in Wallet when you go to submit a question to Google Canada it gives the head office number which leads you to the receptionist. I'll try that one later (unless you have a better option).

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exino:
I've yet to actually get through on that. All I got was, "We are not available, please leave a message after the beep". It's not actually a support number, it's basically a 'We have this just so we can say we do.". The Nexus number worked for me, however.

Ordered the 8GB during IO and also got UPS standard shipping to Toronto.

I was able to reach Google via the Nexus hotline (1855) after a few tries. The lines are getting hammered. The queue is about 50 minutes long right now.

Asked about the wrong shipping, and the front line customer support didn't have anything for me. So I asked right away for a supervisor.

Google currently has no standard policy set in place for the wrong shipping as of yet

They are going to setup a ticket for me for the wrong UPS shipping and are supposed to offer at least a partial refund. I need to reply to the ticket, and a specialist is supposed to get to me within 48 hours.

I am still considering package rejection unless they offer a full refund on the shipping. I'm not happy about the situation.

Here is the UPS shipping page for reference:

http://www.ups.com/content/ca/en/shipping/time/service/shipping/index.html

Order processed Tuesday, 07/17/2012

Scheduled delivery for Friday, 07/20/2012, By End of Day

Louisville, KY, United States -> Lexington, KY, United States -> Cincinnati, OH, United States so far

They didn't give us two-three day shipping at all. UPS standard is not the same as two day shipping. The only type of shipping with a guaranteed shipping date is UPS Worldwide Expedited, and that is for 2-5 days. If it is actually 2-3 day shipping, it should have been UPS Worldwide Express Plus.

UPS Standard just promises to reach you as soon as it is scheduled.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roughsquare:
I got the same info for shipping at the moment but I did look a bit in to the shipping on UPS's website. Though UPS Standard itself doesn't guarentee any timeframe the World Ease does (guarenteed time-in-transit, I know not exactly 2 days). I still don't like it, 2 days is 2 days and what we got is not 2 days.

i paid $20 for 2 days. i got shipped on the 17th, delivery target date the 23rd. WTF IS THIS????

i would cancelled the whole thing and just find one retail. what's the procedure to "reject a delivery" with UPS anyway? i want my refund. including shipping. ESPECIALLY shipping. unless Google refunds my $20 shipping before Monday.

this is NOT UPS fault. this is Google for promising something and not delivering.

Cancelled successfully

I cancelled my order successfully.

Ordered 16 GB on June 29th.

"Google Canada Corp. has cancelled your order. You won't be charged.

Reason: Customer request to cancel"

I had to call, but the CSR told me they had management on-site specifically now as of today to deal with this type of thing. So, be firm, but polite, and you will get your way. This was my third time calling this week, and this time they helped me out.

Best of luck. Also, all the Staples locations near me had stock on-hand.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shieze:
I was able to get my order cancelled as well. As stated above I did have to be firm and polite and had to ask to speak to a manager then they took care of it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
I sell 2 apps on Google Play and cancel any order on request, even months later.

"Customer request to cancel" is the reason in the list I always use.

It usually takes around an hour after the order before I can cancel it. Because I have nothing to ship I don't have to deal with a "shipping in progress" state, so I don't have any insight into that.

But I'm realizing now that the above is exactly what the Google CSRs do.

My 8 GB N7 is taking it's time. Currently in Plattsburgh, NY as of 9:00 AM. Perhaps going through Montreal ?

Scheduled Delivery: Thursday, 07/19/2012, By End of Day

AFAIK, nobody in Canada has received a Google Play N7 yet have they ?

I got my shipping email a few hours after the first Canadians reporting on the big thread. Ordered June 27 5:32 PM EDT.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] el56:
I was able to pick one up this morning at the FutureShop in Vaughan ON (Highway 400 @ Hwy 7) and there was still one in stock when I left.

The FutureShop web page on the N7 says it doesn't have local store availability, so it can't hurt to call your local store and ask -- which is what I did. Best Buy claims to be getting in stock tomorrow (Jul 19).

My enitire story -- including how I cancelled my Google Play order -- is in XDA's main N7 shipping thread.

BTW, when I called CIBC VISA about refusing the charge, they said they couldn't do anything before-the-fact, but that I should keep checking my balance and file a dispute immediately should Google try to charge me.

One thing I did notice was the bilingual model stickers and documentation. Now we know what the extra $10 was for ;)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArclightX:
I just got off the phone with Google (1-855-83-NEXUS) and despite my being polite but firm they told me that "They don't have the ability to cancel my order at this point"

They suggested what was mentioned previously:

1. Reject the shipment from UPS where it will then be sent back to Google at which point I'll get a full refund Incl. shipping

2. Talk to your credit card company and have them deny or return funds for the payment when or before it occurs etc.. etc...

I'm in Calgary (Canada) ordered my 16GB unit on Canada Day (July 1st) and this was the 2nd time I called (last night was the first where I got the same response)

So I was firm and polite and things didn't seem to work out for me as well as they did for others. Pretty sh1tty that pre-order customers have to wait when I could have just sat on my ass and waited for staples/memory express to get them in so I could have had my unit sooner and without the shipping charge.:rolleyes:

** edit **

Forgot to say this whole conversation occured with a "manager/supervisor" I asked to speak to one pretty much immediately when the csr basically said "he can't cancel the order" right off the bat.

Also when I was speaking to the Manager man (Brady) he continued to repeat that "the only time we would have been able to cancel the order would have been if you called within the first hour of placing the original order on July 1st".

So no idea how you guys were able to get your orders cancelled successfully, clearly I don't have the magic touch or something...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikereidis:
Oh yeah, french language documents. So the boxes are definitely different than US boxes and that can help to explain, a little, why Canada and the US aren't in sync.

Some companies have multiple language foldout sheets, but that doesn't work too well for larger docs.
