This actually made me lol

You do know this is a nexus tablet right???
[Nexus 7 General] Arthur Hucksake:
ICS on it. How strange. Makes you wonder if they were intending to launch with that on it instead of JB.

Does it have any screen raise issues or faults?
[Nexus 7 General] PhatWebah:
Again, I'm a Noob.

I'm not really sure what you mean by "raise issues or faults". It's hard to show, but when I drag my finger accross the screen, it draws a line with many dots and H and V coordinate lines. That was a horrible description. Basically, it looks like it is mapping the touchscreen feedback and then rendering a line. The line quickly disappears. The white and red boxes at the top of the screen acually have numbers written on them and those numbers change as you touch the screen. There is also like a red Frame the flashes on the screen when I select an app. I will try to post some some pictures/maybe a video. My phone sucks though so the quality wont be that good.
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
What you're describing is the 'Show touches' and 'Pointer Location' options that can be enabled in Settings>Developer options on Jelly Bean.

You should try to cold boot to recovery from the bootloader and see if it'll go without being hooked up to a computer. Maybe the bootloader is different than production.

Can't he try flashing the stock rom over this? If there are no hardware faults, why risk getting one that might be defective?
[Nexus 7 General] YoungAceAtlanta:
What would devs need from this ... This isn't a Samsung / HTC device
[Nexus 7 General] tylerwatt12:
Please do a nandroid. Tests have shown ICS has better raw performance than JB. I would love to see an ICS ROM on these at least to just test it out.
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
Pretty sure he can flash the stock JB 4.1 image from Google. He just needs to download the stock image, fastboot files and USB drivers. Did this the other day to test something in JB 4.1 and it was pretty straightforward.
[Nexus 7 General] okantomi:
4.0.3 would be an ICS build...this is probably one of the ASUS Memo devices that became the Nexus 7.

I'm pretty sure that the testing apps aren't on AOSP.
[Nexus 7 General] tylerwatt12:
Ok, OP. here's your chance. log into wifi and download an app called AppBackup and Reinstall

download that, and make a backup of every app you see.

plug the tablet into your PC and on the SDCARD you should see a folder called AppBackup, just copy all those .APK files to your PC.

Now we want the ROM, use the Nexus Root Toolkit to unlock and backup your partitions.

Once your in ClockWorkMod Recovery, make a backup by selecting "Backup and Restore" in the recovery menu.

reboot your device and grab the folder "clockworkmod" from your SDCARD.

PM me if you need further help.
[Nexus 7 General] mi7chy:
The correct file extension should be .3pg.

open_epad-eng 4.0.3 IML74K OPEN_epad-0.0.10-20120526 test-keys

that ROM was build at the end of may.
[Nexus 7 General] PhatWebah:
Sorry

Sorry, but I had to return the thing at lunch, its a wife thing. I was chatting with the guys at the mac mall store and a couple of them sounded like tinker with stuff too, so if you really want those apps/android build you could give them a call. The have the device now. The number over there is 312.999.6255. Just ask them about the strange device a guy returned an hour ago.

Perhaps someone could answer a question for me. I picked up a 100 dollar tab to tinker with called the Trio Stealth. A search of these forums yielded no results. Could someone point me in the right direction?
[Nexus 7 General] charlesky:
Given the rarity, could probably have ebayed it for a lot more than $250 :).
[Nexus 7 General] Rovman:
ah doh :< I don't remember seeing them marks on mine.
[Nexus 7 General] PhatWebah:
If that is the case, you could probably call over to mac mall and buy it from them for 249.99. they could ship it to you and you could put it on ebay. does anyone else hate the stupid captcha... and have you ever listened to the audio one, it sounds satanic.

Peace and hair grease,

Today I installed Blackmart, which gives cracked apps and full version keys/licences for free. As I tried them on rooted xperia arc, I found that as soon as I connectt my phone to internet, the app verifies the key/licence from google server and hence detects it as invalid key.

What if , I un-install all google services (or any specific file), so tht app fail to verify the key from goggle server.. ??

Is it possible ??
[General Questions and Answers] devcon69:
i thinks its not safe to uninstall google services, try to reinstall the blackmart app or verify if your arc is really rooted.

-wwjoshdew

-Others?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] snoopy1e11:
Flossy and qbking. I like Flossy because he relates to ppl who are not all technical and don't understand alot of what ram, rom, processors etc are and QbKing is gonna kinda relate to both those are my choices
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AnAm85:
First of all, RESERVED.

Second, I follow Qbking77 and Malik (Flossy Carter). Primarily Tim (Qbking77) because of his professionalism and video quality. He not only LOOKS smarter than others but gives off a very positive vibe and proves he's not in it for profit or fame.

Does anyone notice this or it is just me?

When your search from the search bar or voice search, the web results pop up, but actually clicking at the titles or the links won't direct you to the browser until you hit a little bit lower, at the brief description area. MORE SERIOUSLY, is that, when you filter the results by choosing more->shopping, or video, or whatever, the results are not clickable for me. No new tabs will show up.

Could anyone please try the following, type or speak "wallet", go to shopping results, tap on any one of the image item. Anything happens?

Thank you so much

Hopefully they will have a fix for this soon! :mad:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjniez:
Nexus 7 going back to Asus for repair

Well, this problem has gone from sporadic to consistent for me. Whenever I use the Google Now Widget to search for something and results are returned, I can't click on the results at all. I called Google Support and we tried clearing the cache and data the Google Search and Chrome apps and then did a Factory Data Reset. Nothing has been able to fix this for me. It totally seems like a software bug since generally everything else seems to function alright. Given this, I'm really surprised the Factory Data Reset didn't fix it for me.

Since I bought the Nexus 7 at Staples and I'm outside of the 14 day return policy (by just 1 darn day!!!), they said that they can't even exchange it for me. So now, I have to send it into Asus to have it "repaired".

Is anyone else having this issue?

For the record, I'm never buying anything electronic or of any significant value from Staples again!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oublieux:
I recently stumbled across this bug as well and chalked it up to being software related too. But whereas some people seem to have sporadic results, I can NEVER click my Google Now search results. I'm quite baffled that a factory reset didn't work and was actually about to do it myself, but if there's no guarantee that it'll solve the problem then it wouldn't be worth it. Honestly, I wouldn't send it to Asus to get it repaired because the issue might simply pop up again. I'm wondering if only a small minority is experiencing this problem though or if people just don't realize it yet (as I haven't really used much of Google Now). In any case, I hope this issue gets resolved soon.

EDIT: This must definitely be a software bug because I might have found a way to possibly resolve the issue. I activated Google Now, hit the menu button on the bottom right, went to "settings" then "privacy and accounts." Here, there should be an option for "Search on google.com." Mine was initially unchecked, but I simply checked the option again. Doing this, Google Now seems to now allow me to touch/click results. I should add that when I went back and unchecked the option, the issue did not return. So, regardless of what the option is set at for you guys, I would simply check or uncheck and try it seeing if that resolves the issue. I hope this works for others!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oublieux:
Sorry to bump this thread up again, but did this happen to work for anyone else?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Altercation:
I'm experiencing the same problems (can't click on standard web search results in Google Now, but can in Chrome). The above fix doesn't work for me (I don't have that showing up in my privacy settings on my Google Account, but then again I don't even have "search plus your world" available in my apps account yet).

Here's an interesting twist though:

If I perform the following search in Google Now:

xda nexus 7 google now can't click on results​

I can't click the results. However the first result will include "More results from xdaforums.com". If I click that link, it's not only clickable, but the results on the next page are all clickable.

Again, I'm on a Google Apps account, fwiw.

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:08 PM ----------

One other interesting point: navigating through the Google Now results using an external keyboard (just cursoring up and down), I can select and enter any result without problems.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjniez:
I think I may have figured out how to get search results clickable again...

1) Go into Settings->Privacy and accounts

2) Uncheck "Show recent searches"

3) Back out to the home screen

4) Try your search again and you should be able to click on the search results

This seems to do the trick for me. Give it a try and let us know if it works for you guys.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Altercation:
Mate, that solves it for me. Well done! Silly that I didn't try unchecking that before. I quite like having my search history, actually, but happier to have Now working.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leorob:
Fix Does not work for me

Still can't click on results.

I'm wondering if it has something to do with having a second browser (Dophin) installed.

Maybe tablet does not know which to use?

When clicking on OTHER links tablet asks whether to complete the action with Chrome or Dolphin. Obviously when pressing on a Google now result that question does not pop up and the results are not clickable.

Maybe I will uninstall Dolphin and see if that helps
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] namkcorbs:
Thank you for the fix

It works but I was confused by your directions. From settings, go to Accounts Google, then Search, which then takes you to Privacy & Accounts.

This was very frustrating problem. I called Google Nexus Tech Support and talk about a useless rep. I can't believe others aren't complaining about the same problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spike1989:
Hey,

I bought the Bose MIE Headset (I think not the MIE2) and there's a problem with the galaxy s.

You get only a good sound when you push the Microphone button. -.-

After a lot of Threads i found out that the Pin allocation isn't similar to the one of the Galaxy S ...

The Bose Headphone has on the 3rd Pin "Ground" and on the 4th "Mic"

The Samsung Headset / Galaxy S Mobile Phone has on the 3rd "mic" and on the 4th "ground"

Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem? Or is it already solved?

Thanks for your help
[Galaxy S I9000 General] gcuchiha:
Adjust the pin such that you get clear sound.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xpcomputers:
You can buy or make a short adapter lead which swaps the pins. (socket>lead>plug)

Or you can do some soldering on the headphone plug/lead (which is more permanent change to the headphones)

Or some people simply tape closed the button.

Which of these is best for you depends on personal preference...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dark_knight35:
Just realized that I've got the same problem. But I've got the MIE2 with an adapter, and it does the same as pressing the button. Now it's louder, but not really clearer :confused:.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Uhlaf:
Due to the Galaxy S using the 3.5mm jack for TV out it's really finicky with headphones. It's seemingly random also, my Sennheiser 280 Pros works great, but most headphones won't, my girlfriends earbuds will work but my sisters' wont.

A fix would be cool.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] xpcomputers:
You could try turning tv output to off.

Look in: settings > display.

I've heard others say it improves things. Therefore I always leave mine set to tv output off (except when connecting to a tv!).

I've never tested the sound quality as a direct comparison with tv output set on and off though, but could be worth a try.

Hey everybody, I'm new to the Nexus 7 forums (coming from HTC Amaze/Samsung Infuse forums) and I was wondering how Netflix plays on this device.

I ordered one yesterday, but I'm curious as to whether or not it will be a decent experience. I currently have a Galaxy Tab 7 and the netflix app is HORRENDOUS. I mean, it takes about 5 minutes to load a tv show, and my Amaze connects (via the same wifi) within seconds. I'm just wondering how the speed is of the netflix app. I'm also curious about the video playback quality. Is it decent?
