[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emptybee:
7/10: Wish I didn't have to take the back off to tighten the screws for the screen. Will raise to a 9/10 when I figure out how (and if?) Google Now works in the UK and when they release Play Music, Magazines and other missing content for here. Unfortunately will never be 10/10 due to the fact that I slightly scuffed the back fixing the screen problem :(

Very happy indeed, so much so I am selling my ipods, ipad and mac book pro.

While I do intend to replace the mac with a pc laptop at some stage, the nexus is more than enough for my needs in the interim.

On the face of it it could be misconstrued as something else this post, but if explanations are required as to my thinking just ask.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mltaylo3:
9 out of10. Extremely satisfied. The price is right, the product is solid. Enough said.

I give this nexus 7 a 10/10. An excellent device all the way around. Has more than exceeded my expectations. Plus this is my first 7in. Tablet. I love the form factor and size of it. I can type very fast on it using thumb keyboard.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marmankites:
It is amazing !!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexcellent:
I'd still buy one knowing about all issues outlined in the past week.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rovex:
I have a bit of backlight bleed, which seemed to reduce after i tightened the screen screws, other than that its good. However im not blown away. Screen is a little dim, its smooth but no more so than my galaxy S3, it doesnt do anything my Galaxy tab 8.9 doesnt, apart from Google now.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bifhud:
I was really nervous ordering a Nexus 7 after reading about people having so many different quality control issues but I am extremely happy and satisfied with this $199 tablet. The quality control on mine was good except for a low volume external speaker. The problem was solved with advice from a forum member to use the Volume+ app. I fiddled with the settings and now it is as loud and clear as I want it. I rate it a 9/10.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rman726:
I obviously knew going into it that I was buying a $250 tablet, so obviously there were going to be some cutbacks. It was definitely worth $250, but I really wish they would have offered a more expensive 7" Nexus in addition. I understand that they just wanted to boost the market, so that's why they made it so cheap. But a $200/$250 Nexus 7, and a $300/$350 Nexus 7 Pro or something would have been ideal for me...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
For the price this is the best device I have ever owned, period.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redwiz666:
OK so I'm having a problem with getting the gallery to display anything. I have tried installing several different ROMs to include unrooting and restoring stock. The gallery just show hitting and I have pictures on their because other programs can see them. Also I have cleared data for gallery and still a no go.
[Nexus 7 General] my_username:
I was in Staples yesterday about to purchase a 16 gig model...the not having capacitive buttons and the lack of a camera on the back are issues for me...but issues I was going to try to overlook.

Then I start playing with the display model for a couple of minutes and came to learn that there is no haptic feedback while typing...or anywhere for that matter. This is a deal breaker for me. The only tablet I can recall ever using that didn't have keyboard vibration is the iPad. Every other Android tab I've used has it.

Quite a let down.
[Nexus 7 General] seff5677:
ya that does really suck, all the other asus pads have it
[Nexus 7 General] aindow:
I'm a little disappointed by this but i'm getting used to it. It's a better typing experience than my ipad.
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
i'm surprised they took it out too, but you do get used to it after a while...
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
It seems your expections are not inline with reality. Clearly to meet the price at which the Nexus is sold at, some things had to go. Personally I don't use a tablet to take pictures when I'm out, so I don't give a crap about rear facing camera.

Google and Asus have done a solid job of identifying what can go, what they can skrimp on, and what they shouldn't skrimp on, and a s a result, the Nexus FEELS and PERFORMS like a premium tablet without a premium price...

If you want a tablet with all the premium bells and whistles, you will have to pay a premium price. That is the harsh reality.
[Nexus 7 General] Metallice:
I would have been shocked if there was haptic feedback.

200. 200. Seriously people. My phone retailed for 700 and the nexus 7 will probably kick its butt when it arrives.
[Nexus 7 General] Artood2s:
The OG Asus Transformer didn't have haptic feedback. It's a nice luxury don't get me wrong, but no a nessesity IMO.

Sent from my HTC One X
[Nexus 7 General] OneDeep:
The iPad is $400 with no haptic feedback. Maybe Google thought we don't need it.
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
Didn't have haptic feedback on my OG Transformer, GTab 2 7", or this. Not shocked in the least, nor do I care. One less point of failure.
[Nexus 7 General] marcellus7:
You won't find anything better near this price point.
[Nexus 7 General] EvilDeadFan:
That is exactly how I feel. My dad takes pictures with his TF201 and I make fun of him for holding up a tablet to take pictures when he has an excellent Canon camera..

The tablet also does not vibrate when a new message comes in, or a notification gets pushed.

Thats fine, as I normally turn that off to save on power... this isn't a problem with most games as any good vibration feedback can be regained through a Playstation SIXAXIS controller. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] Nexcellent:
Just a few more weeks and these threads will stop.
[Nexus 7 General] goofball2k:
I never thought about haptic feedback on a tablet, though I think the Iconia A100 had it. I always turned it off, along with the typing noises.
[Nexus 7 General] CasualStarlord:
First thing I do when I get a new phone is find out how to turn "haptic feedback" aka annoying vibrating battery wasting rumble pack, OFF!

The fact that it doesnt have haptop feedback at all, is probably the best news for me I have read about this device today :victory:
[Nexus 7 General] lpforte:
Your sample size must be quite small then. A lot of tablets(including the high end ones like the ipad you mentioned) do not have haptic feedback. You expectations are pretty high for the type of device you were looking at. And besides, lack of softkeys is a design choice not a missing feature. Google has been pushing the buttonless android device for a long time.
[Nexus 7 General] rootusr:
I don't have one yet but was a surprise to me to know that it does not have a vibration motor, anyway I believe that the only use on which I could miss that is while playing games, don't you?

other than that I think is ok?

The back camera, well, I really think that was a mistake due to the size of this tablet, I can imagine 10' tablets without the rear camera but this one?
[Nexus 7 General] noesilva:
First thing I do with any device I buy is disable haptic feedback
[Nexus 7 General] Skillz1318:
I'm with a few others, first thing I do is disable typing sounds and haptic feedback.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
I never understood the point of a rear facing camera on a tablet anyway. Way to cumbersome for practical use. I've only used the one on my A500 once or twice just playing around. A phone ok, but not a tablet. As far as the haptic feedback, I didn't know the Nexus didn't have it. Not that it matters. It's still an awesome device!! No regrets!
[Nexus 7 General] upstandingcitizen:
Clearly, you have no idea how onscreen buttons are a thousand times better looking, more durable, and happen to be a huge component of 4.X. However, given your trollish name and your idiotic demeanor, I believe that I have been had.

Good day sirrah!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Trezzahn:
Hi all,

Until a few days ago, even with ICS installed, is was possible for me to connect my phone(Xperia S) on my MacBook Pro and browser trough my phone, using Bridge for Mac(BfM). But now my Mac can't find my phone anymore. :(

Now, when I connect my phone, BfM scans for a device but it can't find it, even when while keeping it connected for 15 minutes it still doesn't do a thing.

I already tried to use/not use USB-debugging but it didn't help. Android File Transfer did not work for me either. I already restarted my phone, my computer, BfM, ATF and re-connected my phone through my mini-USB. All without any result.

When I have my phone connected, BfM is saying: Detecting phone... and the (some sort of icon) is spinning. When I check my notifications in my Xperia S it says: Internal memory connected Internal memory is connected with the PC

I run ICS on my Xperia S. It is not rooted or flashed in any other way. So just retail.

Sorry for my bad English. I am Dutch so some terms/phrases may not be the same.

I hope someone can help me!

Thanks in advance!

Regards

Apple products are so, like a miser in this case. I have experienced this too on my Uncle's macbook.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Trezzahn:
I know that Apple product may have some problems concerning compatibility and such. But there must be an other way to fix this right? Before it has worked, so why it doesn't do now?

I don't feel like using my phone in Windows so I need reboot and such.. Must be a solution I think.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] richierich:
Airdroid is the answer

Just install Airdroid on your Xperia S.

Makes file transfers easy as pie!!

And it's compatible with ANY browser too!!

RR
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Trezzahn:
Looks good on first look! I will instal, try it later and will let you know.

But how about updates? Bridge for Mac provides these and with AirDroid(from which I saw) it doesn't do updates. Am I right? So what about this..

Thanks anyway!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Spectre51:
Did you update to Bridge 3.0? Also when I plug my phone in I have Bridge closed. Unlock the phone then open bridge. Seems to work pretty good that way. Sometimes I still have to disconnect and reconnect a couple times.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Trezzahn:
OMG, that worked! :good:

Bridge for Mac didn't detect a update so I manually updated it to 3.0 through their site. And BAM, is works now!

Super thank you. If I could double-thank I would hit it haha

Still kind a strange that before it worked and suddenly it did not..

And thank you for that amazing app!! Very nice so I will use it in the future
[LG Optimus Black] capocorp:
I start this thread because i am a bit frustrated about the low official support of lg to our optimus black and all the lg devices, so want to discuss with you about something.

I mean, if neither the cyanogenmod team is not yet able to give us a stable cm7 (i know there is a stable version, but we all know that there are still few bugs, i.e video recording), who is to blame? The LG company or maybe the Texas Instrument that doesn't release a proper full code (i.e the multimedia drivers for ics)? how is it possibile that the cyano team can't make the video recording work in a widespread platform like omap3 !?

What i'am trying to say is maybe not all the fault is ascribable to LGE, but maybe the all enviroment around the lg devices development.

What do you think?
[LG Optimus Black] SoulExertz:
No. It is due to LG's relatively small workforce. Look at Samsung's HQ And LG's HQ. Its like world's apart. And, the way LGE builds their products. Lastly, we have a relatively small CM group. So, compared to major companies, EG. HTC & Samsung, we are small.... so, you can expect updates every month or two. As we have low manpower.

THANK ME :)

[LG Optimus Black] Vinzgore:
For GB, it was LG's fault.

For ICS, we don't know about what LG has made for now, but TI doesn't help as they haven't finished OMAP3 3.0 Kernel.

Hey guy! look this https://twitter.com/LG_Mobile_ (Use Google traductor) they are always talking about ICS for our 2011 devices (:

They say many things about Optimus 3D and Optimus 2X and only a few things about our Optimus Black :/ hope the better.

They also tell something like the upgrade will be very soon and they tell us when.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben-B:
I ordered a cheap desk stand from eBay, for the galaxy SII and the 4x HD fits perfectly!

I also customised a dock for my car, got fed up with trying to squeeze the phone into a rubbish looking universal mount, then connecting a trailing cable. So I hid the cables hard-wired behind the dash, and dremel'd the dock to shape, bent it with a hot air-gun, clamping it in a vice. Getting the connector to stay in place took a hot glue gun. (leaving a cavity underneath means I can still reach my headlight switch, not that i use it, I leave it set to on 100% of the time on the Volvo, as it makes no difference - the daytime running lights are set up to be the main dipped headlights anyway!)

I think now I've got a working prototype I'll buy another and redo it a bit neater. (The dock is only about £4 from china!) as the plastic has reacted a bit to the heat!

The dock is simply squeezed into the gap in the dash trim, it holds fine.

The phone jiggles a bit and it isn't angled towards the driver quite right, but it's fine, and certainly easier than having to fiddle the phone and charger in every time I get in the car!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JessyCute:
look great !!! cool man ^^
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben-B:
I Should add, people have commented on two things - firstly in a crash it's going to fly out very easy and be dangerous (Though surely any cheap phone mount will also! Only something like a Brodit will hold it very securely)

Secondly (and quite worryingly!) Perhaps the charging socket will wear out from sitting wobbling around?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] amuu407:
Nice but isn't mobile blocking your air-conditioning channel?;)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben-B:
Yeah, but sitting in the flow of air wasn't a big deal for me. Most universal mounts mount onto a vent!

I since removed this! Firstly, the phone wobbles quite a lot - I was worried that the charging socket could get worn out.

Also, in the event of a crash it would fly around quite easily!

I now use a Clingo, but I modified it by screwing the tip of the ball-joint onto a Brodit base, so it's held next to my stereo
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Aiolizator:
Hi, can you please give the url for the dock you bought ?

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] kw930:

Wow!! what a creative idea, charging and cooling at the same time. Good job.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Life'sGood:
[MENTION=2432316]Ben-B[/MENTION] can you post the ebay link? looks like a really good idea for us 4x drivers. I assume ANY S2 docks will do right?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Ben-B:
I have one like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sync-Charge-Cradle-Dock-Station-Charger-For-Samsung-Galaxy-S2-S3-S4-i9300-i9500-/231021608377?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Components_Supplies_ET&var=&hash=item35c9f5fdb9

Though I've now added a shim of card (taped on the back part with black electrical tape) to hold it at just the right angle.

Just to clarify, I'm just talking about desk stands here, the car cradle idea was just me bodging a desk stand, but I don't use that any more.

I doubt a real G S2 car cradle will hold the 4x, the width would have to be the same and I'm sure it's not!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] liquid.emotion:
Here is what i did.

Latest CWM recovery v5.8.4.7

after nandroid back to CM9, i wipe cache partition & Dalvik Cache

then i flash "TGST-CM9-ICS_ALPHA19.zip" - the Trinity kernel

when my phone reboot i discover the IMEI is gone.

The phone still work, but you will get Edge speed only and your IMEI number is 0.

updated:

I been doing a alot of research and i think i found a solution to fix my imei.

haven't test it out yet but will get back to you guys asap when the product arrive. =)

IMEI Number

How do we know our IMEI Number is borked or lost? Thanks
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sabre31:
You will lose access to data network. You can check your settings- about phone - status and if your imei shows all 0 then you lost it and so far now way of restoring it back other then sending your phone to Samsung under warranty.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] lordmorphous:
Typically you would lose connectivity. Dial*#06# and see if you get all zeroes. All zeroes means IMEI is borked.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] stevessvt:
If you have time to wait for a workaround, sit tight and see what happens. If not, your going to have to return it and try to get a replacement.

Although a step in the right direction, its not a solution. Yet.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] liquid.emotion:
well my warranty is already expired so i can't return it.

On the good note i'm been doing a lots of research on how to fix it.

And it seem i found a solutions to fix it but i haven't test it yet.

will get back with you guys soon.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Projectsk26:
I guess my only question is why did you wipe dalvik and everything after you flashed the ROM? Makes no sense to me at all.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] liquid.emotion:
just my bad habits, cause when ever i flash something new i usually wipe them.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Ace42:
You wipe everything prior to flashing a new ROM, not after.

On another note, can you guys please tell me why the IMEI is lost while flashing? I would like to get this phone but I'm scared now. since Samsung phones have always been a bit dodgy IMO. Stuff like this kinda troubling to hear so I'll probably keep my S3 stock until the Devs figure out a way to save the IMEI. Also this will eventually be my 7th Android device so it's not like I'm a newb or anything(owned 2 Samsung & 4 htc devices so far).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] itsandra:
Lost IMEI too

I had the same problem after rooting my Galaxy s3 and installing FreeGS3 rom. I lost my EMEI, and couldn't find a solution, so I exchange it for a new one. I am keeping it in stock rom for now, hoping for an early update to ics 4.1.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MMontanez347:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
I'm on cm9 and trinity with working imei and everything is great. Flashed recovery through Odin and then updated through terminal.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] MetalSearGolid:
This just happened to me. There are ways you can back up and restore your IMEI should this happen to you, but I didn't make any backups. I did learn how to set your IMEI (don't ask, it's illegal) but that alone didn't fix this for me (apparently the backup process restores more than just the IMEI). In the end, I called up T-Mobile and said I cycled my phone power during a factory reset, and they sent me a new phone, put everything back to how it looks prior to rooting the phone, reset the counters, and all that jazz.

The only reason I don't feel bad about lying about how the IMEI got borked is because I believe it really is a glitch on Samsung's end that caused this. Even so, the second you mention custom anything they'll say it isn't covered and then you're stuck with Edge for the rest of your contract.

From what I've read as I researched this, it seems to happen arbitrarily during a flash. I highly recommend finding a guide on backing up the EFS partition prior to flashing in the future (this is where the relevant information is stored for fixing this issue)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dayv:
Just an fyi - it is not illegal to set your phone to the imei that is supposed to be there.

Now spoofing or using someone else's working imei - well that's where you start crossing a line you should not be.

I just used one of the T-Mobile official radios. You can find them in development. But I flashed using the Team Sonic radio flasher. Also found in development.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Jaxidian:
Flashing a radio doesn't fix a lost IMEI. It's been tried hundreds of times without luck. You most likely didn't lose your IMEI but had some other issue.

Well, I have a Generic Gamepad which is being detected by my LWW but shows the "USB Power Consumption Error" as it requires 500 ma power..My LWW is on GB with stock ROM and kernel which supports OTG..So I saw a video that a 32 gb memory card had the same problem with Xperia S which was solved using a unpowered USB hub...So after buying that my Gamepad is detected and no error is shown but there's no power directed to my gamepad and it doesn't work. So does this mean that a powered usb hub will solve my problem?? Please help it's urgent. Thanks in advance..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] GregórioAxiaMagno:
The Dualshock 3 (PS3 controller) need also 500mA. Today I saw a post what the guy says the usb stick only work at a hub (non-powered), and recently I discovered that my controller can work on a powered or non-powered hub, but don't works directly. And I use a homemade OTG cable, but this broken, then I mod an adapter (usb to micro), I discovered with the cable only works with energy supply, with the adapter only need the hub with or without power.

My controller also is detected but only works if i hit the PS logo at center. I hope my info gives some tip.

I believe what the power supply can solve your problem since I read what other people make an external harddrive works only with powered hub. But in theory, your gamepad works without supply, but with a hub.
