I have bought couple of times from cart2 india Via ebay. Paisa pay keeps your money secure.

Once I had ordered a laptop bag that took like 26 days to reach me.

Second right now I bought Nexus 7 3G 32 GB from them around mid nov & I received the device on 3rd Dec.

It all depends on the day those guys are going to close their orders & plan dispatch.

I would always recommend paisa Pay over homeshop

Just curious, are there any benefits other than convenience in using a 3G model vs a WiFi only (that can be tethered to a mobile phone having data connection)?

Help ,

Today i ordered Nexus 7 from Adorama website , I used forwarding service for shipping , while doing payment, i have been asked for card no., security no.(vcc) & name appears on card but after clicking submit it did not asked me for any passwords , I used ICICI International Visa DEBIT card , normally debit card charges immediatly after providing main & transaction password ,I checked my netbanking in which Rs. 1.03 rs has been debited ,

Can anyone tell me is my order succesfully ordered or not ? If yes how this can be processed without asking any passwords?
[Nexus 7 General] Sandheep:
International payments are not subject Ti RBI's insistence on level 2 or 3 password verification requirements. The payment should go through. You should get an order verification email from Adorama.

They put that charge on your account only to verify if the card is valid. They charge your account only when they ship the product so you should get a shipping verification email some time tomorrow their time.

[Nexus 7 General] Visa Declined:
That type of otg adapter used in conjunction with a thumb drive is able to leverage a significant amount of pressure against the usb port of the tablet. The cable type otg adapter is safer imo.

I've had micro usb ports get loose and sloppy over time so I'm a bit paranoid perhaps.
[Nexus 7 General] manasgirdhar:
Agreed.Its Dangerous to use that kinda Connector.Hanging Wires might look odd...but its better

is 3G working (urgent)

Hello Members,

I have just purchased NEXUS 7 32gb 3G version from US.

I am using Vodafone SIM card to use the 3G data services but the Tablet does not detect the 3G network.

I even tried to manually configure the APN settings but no luck.

If someone is using 3G here in India can you please tell me which network SIM you are using.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 General] itsmechg:

Have you activated 3G?

Yes I have activated 3G and also got a recharge of 249 for the data.

R u able to use 3G
[Nexus 7 General] Droidlover123:
First try in any other 3g phone to confirm if your sim has 3g working or not...

Only the Tablet has the issue.

Hello Nexus 7 users,

Since the last two days I was trying to figure out how I can use 3g on my brand new NEXUS 7 tab... And finally I have figured it out.

I have a NEXUS 7 32gb 3G model imported from US and using Vodafone SIM to across the 3G data.

All you have to do is to manually configure the APN settings as the tan does not automatically download them.

Here r the settings:

Name: vodafone gprs

APN: www

Authentication Type: none

APN Type: internet

Ok. All the best! You might also want to look into the borderlinx site. I found the link in a thread in these forums. Not sure if they deliver earlier,but its worth taking a look into.

I bought two Wifi model yesdterday from for each $216 from ebay . Listed has been ended within some hours . Now going to order 3G model ,

Anyone managed to pay via adorama from your indian card ?? As i trying to order from there & also tried abt.com online store but they not accepting my card, i read payment policy of BHPHOTO ,they also saying " Bank regulations require that the billing address of the order match the billing address associated with your credit card. " & they ship to BILLING address .

I have international visa debit card or ICICI & also have HDFC mastercard credit card. . Tried adoram & abt.com but failed . I am going to use address of Hopshopgo US address . so should i use same address for shipping & billing or shipping US address & billing indian address ? I am failed to order from google play store.

So please advice me which US online store accept indian cards with US shipping & billing address ? J&R / Adorama /BHPHOTO /Wallmart /abt electronics or anyother US site ? Some sites also offering paypal bt they want verfied US paypal a/c with same US address.
[Nexus 7 General] Sandheep:
You can buy from Adorama by using Google checkout. Just sign up your card there and you can make the peche using the Google checkout option.
[Nexus 7 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
@ sandheep .

My both cards are suspended in google wallet while buying Nexus 4 .
[Nexus 7 General] Sandheep:
How did that happen? I thought they did not do an address verification at the play store
[Nexus 7 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
Yes they do . I am asking for varification of US documents . Anyways leave it , Just tell me will i able to do from adorama? with US shipping & Indian billing address ? or any other website will you recommend for 3G model ? OR any way to buy from mentioned websites? How you manged to do that ? seems you did from checkout.
[Nexus 7 General] Sandheep:
Not sure. I used Google check out an Adorama. I am quite sure that JR will except your Indian credit card
[Nexus 7 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
JR showing preorder in whohasit but not geting there product link . what i feels that they must want billing address to be indian & shipping address to be US..I tried both addresses of US maybe thats why it might failed in adorama

Sir I am absolutely sure abt warranty. I visited Asus service Centre here in delhi. I told them that screen has some issues. They told me that they can't replace it but can change the screen. I also visited their office in nehru place, delhi. They also said that they can only replace the screen. But it will take 30 days for them to bring new screen as model is not available/release in India. As far as $25 is concerned, one need to have credit card and UK/US telephone number and zip code. Infact there is a thread here dedicated to this only.

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------

I purchased it from UK. I updated it to 4.1.1 in delhi. So there is no issues about update.

Did you receive your n7 from IndiaTimes ?

I placed order on 16th Aug but yet to receive it :mad:
[Nexus 7 General] venkig:
I haven't received the order yet. Expected date on their sites shows as - 2012-09-08. Check your order status to see if the product is shipped atleast. According to the customer care my order will be shipped on 5th Sept and delivered by 8th Sept.
[Nexus 7 General] Lost Monk:
Dont rely on that status shown in account. I was in touch with them this whole time & they promised delivery before 5th Sep. Today I get call and they tell me that product is Out Of Stock & whenever next time they order it in bulk then only it will be shipped and delivered to me.

I have escalated the issue & they said they will inform resolution by tomorrow. If there is going to be further delay, I am gonna cancel the order.
[Nexus 7 General] wr8_utd:
What problem did you have with the screen? And 30 days isn't that bad. Did you register your N7 online or was that not needed for the warranty issues?
[Nexus 7 General] heavens dragon:
well i will wait for official launch which is expected next month according to this asus guy
[Nexus 7 General] nishant_713:
Nexus 7 3g model coming in 6 weeks. Hope this time they launch in India too.
[Nexus 7 General] heavens dragon:
yeah maybe late nov or dec. in india
[Nexus 7 General] venkig:
Their customer care is hopeless. I think it makes complete sense to cancel out the order. How can the product be out of stock when you placed the order ? Basic ecommerce - You cannot order a product which is not in STOCK !!!! Which implies Indiatimes LIED to the customers that the product is in stock, processed the payment and is not delivering the product at the said date ? THAT DOESN'T GREAT AT ALL !

Worse part is I even have few of my team members from my company who is in the same situation. Been touch with these fools the whole time too and they are playing a monkey game.

I am going to wait for you to hear back the status about your order and to know what these clowns are telling you. We should all freakin' cancel the order and make a big stink :p .. Arrghhh .. The morning frustration :mad:

They did deliver N7 to few customers from their limited stock they had. Looks like they still took the order after being done with their stock to leech money and make customer wait, logical, isn't it ?
[Nexus 7 General] sacthegreat:
Why not buy it from homeshop18? They are offering the 8gb one for 15k odd!
[Nexus 7 General] Lost Monk:
My N7 is packed & will be shipped today :p

Hope to receive it in next few days. Maybe the quick action was result of me threatening Customer Care guy with Order Cancel & further monetary compensation.

Call them again and escalate the issue, hope you receive it soon too ! :)

I am in Nagpur these days and HomeShop declined to deliver it here. Also IndiaTimes offered great offer of some 1400Rs discount plus HDFC EMI option, that is why I ordered it from IndiaTimes. I am getting N7 for 14800/-
[Nexus 7 General] atsa:
My nexus had screen separtion as well as very noticable backlight leakage issue. Now screen has been replaced. It took them less than 25 days to replace it. But unfortunately there is a dead pixel on the new screen. Anyway as far ass warranty goes, ASUS just needs serial number of N7. I haven't register my N7 online.
[Nexus 7 General] wr8_utd:
I have the problem of ghosting and washed out screen so I'm thinking of giving it for repairs as well. Asking for a replacement will take 25-30 working days so I think getting a new screen here would be a quicker option! But since they're ordering the screen from the US, isn't there an option where they let you keep your tablet and ask you to get it in when the screen arrives? I hate the thought of my tablet just rotting away at the ASUS centre waiting for 2-3 weeks for a screen to arrive when I could be using it at home anyway.
[Nexus 7 General] atsa:
Yes u can keep your tablet with you. Just tell service Centre people to give you a call when they receive the screen. They just kept my tablet with them for 1 day. They told me that they received screen from asus taiwan. In fact if u give them your tablet in morning, they might give you back by noon or evening same day. But if your screen problem is manageable, I suggest you to wait for 2 months as n7 will be officially available by then. Right now their service guys don't have enough knowledge about N7.
[Nexus 7 General] wr8_utd:
Yes I think my screen is manageable enough at the moment. I just hope Mumbai has an authorized Asus Service Centre though which will do the needful. I could wait for till it officially launches before I get it repaired but it could possibly get worse by then so I'm not sure. They didn't object at all about warranty when you went to them? Yours is from the US too?

I'm not even sure if a new screen will be enough to solve my problem or not though. I guess I'll ask them!
[Nexus 7 General] atsa:
My n7 is from UK. I haven't face any warranty issues. If you still have doubt regarding warranty, just call their cc. They will ask for Serial number and will confirm about warranty. Asus India is based in Mumbai so they must have authorised Centre in Mumbai with better facilities.
[Nexus 7 General] wr8_utd:
I believe you but still a little paranoid :P

And right now I need to make a decision. Do I ask for a replacement from where I ordered my N7 (and wait for 25-30 days without a tablet) or do I hope that the ASUS centre here will fix the issue with a new screen like they did yours. And can the issue even be fixed with a new screen? I guess no one really knows why ghosting and washed out screen really happens!
