maybe add this to the poll

flick scroll swipe bounce back inertia elastic in stock launcher, Currents, and more.

theory is tablets require a swipe across a larger area
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd50:
Is anyone NOT experiencing the scroll issue? It's really my only complaint with the device. I hope it's a a software issue and can be fixed at some point, although if it's software I'm surprised it hasn't been fixed yet.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanteGR:
You mean scrolling inside apps like browsers etc mate or just on the home screens or both?

I'm very curious to know the same thing...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd50:
Everything. I'm talking about the inertia, like when you click it with your thumb but instead of continuing to scroll it just stops.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanteGR:
Yeah I'm pretty sure everyone has it..

Just maybe some people don't pay too much attention.

There should be a option for perfect because there is nothing wrong with my N7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexxe:
I just got my N7 32GB yesterday, serial number CA0. Turned it on and I had the phantom touch/typing. I couldn't do anything on it. It just kept selecting a WiFi network and typing "g" constantly. I was pretty damn annoyed that literally the first time I use the thing, there's an issue. I kept turning it on and off and eventually it stopped. After reading online all the issues with the screens which is most likely the cause of my issue, I looked at mine and noticed that the left side of the glass was flush with the silver bezel while the right side was slight lower than the bezel. I put my ear to the left side and pushed it down and sure enough I heard the glue crackle noise. Also, I noticed that when I pushed down with the screen on and on a black screen, the LCD would display funny colors (just how when you push your finger against any LCD monitor) which told me that the glass was clearly moving. This did not occur on the right side.

I don't think I'm going to play the exchange game as I got this online and I have to pay for shipping back. However, does anyone know if Rat Shack, Office Depot, or Staples record the serial number at all?? I might be willing to give it one try if I can buy it locally and return this one.

Really sucks as I love the tablet itself, just not sure of the reliability down the road of the hardware....
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmycrackcorn1:
Wow Rexxe!! Right when you turned it on! What a PITA!! I have the CAO, havent noticed any screen lift...yet.***crosses fingers*** How ever I have had plenty of other problems. I havent googled searched problems within the N10, I wonder if those are as cheaply made? Are all these problems Googles Fault or Asus? Either way I'm sure Google can't be happy with Asus unless the $$ sign are all they care about.

Serial numbers & returning to your referenced stores=

I'm not sure, I think those stores are a little more secure when it comes to inventory.... I smell what your stepping in though, I'd do the same thing but I also know when I purchased my first one from Wally World, I remember hearing them say that they didn't check the serials. I know I certainly will NEVER play the exchange game again! Between Rooting, Unlocking, ROM'n for fixes, Backing up/Restoring, Losing Data & having to search endlessly within the silly new Sdcard/SDcard0, SDemulator/Legacy, or Data/Media sub files for it, I have spent endless hours trying to get a legit functioning Nexus 7. How are they suppose to take over the world when their tracking devices aren't even working? Lol Guess were safe for now! Good luck with your search for a functioning Nexus 7 Sir!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexxe:
Thanks, man. Really sucks that they couldn't get this right. I totally blame Asus, but obviously Google has to take some of the blame since their name and reputation is on the line. I actually called Google and filed a formal complaint with them. They're not going to do anything about it, but at least it's there.

Screen Lift, Missing screws, Creaking noise

I bought 16GB Nexus 7 SN:C8O in September. It had a tiny bit of screen lift but I did not return it, I thought it wasn't that big of a deal but overtime screen lift got more and more noticeable, it started to feel spongy at the left side and making creaking noises. When back casing was open, I saw that it was missing 2 screws as well.

I held on to it as long as I could but it left me scared to handle it, as holding at the left side was making rippling effect on the screen.

So I've requested a RMA for it and sent it back, hopefully they will replace it with a new unit without any problems. I'll report back here.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adapt0r:
A choice of NO ISSUES should be added to the poll to make sense from these data. It is fundamentals of statistics of quality control. Any mass produced product has some issues.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captainjames:
Agreed, I have had no problems yet! :)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bach0:
Just a quick update, received my replacement from ebuyer. As they were out of stock of 16GB ones and no further updates when they are going to have them in stock, so instead they've replaced defective 16GB with 32GB one.

It has a little light bleed (only visible on very dark background) at the right hand side, other than that no problem. I'm pretty happy. :victory:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobbinthreadbare:
I posted a while back about a portion of my screen that stopped functioning. I got lazy about sending it out and ended up waiting nearly a month but I figured I'd post an update since I read so many horror stories dealing with Asus tech support.

They were really great. The first time I called to put in a request, I had the wrong Asus #. I had trouble finding the correct one online but the dude put me in the system anyways and gave me the right number to call and a case # to give whoever I got.

The guy I got after calling the correct # was a tad rude compared to the first one. I was being asked in a bit of a condesending tone how I could have come to the conclusion that the screen was defective and I knew it wasn't software (even after I reset back to stock, updated etc). But it only took a few minutes to get an RMA #. I sent it out Dec 16th I think and got it back on the 29th. I only had to call once because when I checked the status of the RMA, it said it wasn't in the system. The guy (different than the last, very nice) checked for me and said it was repaired and would be shipping out later that day and I should get my tracking # in my email soon.

So I got it back and all is well. Pretty quick turn around, mostly painless dealing with tech support. Here is a screenshot I took when I was trying to figure out what was up with my screen. Its pretty easy to see that there was an entire section that just wasn't responding. Its never been dropped and there isn't a scratch on it. I'm just glad to have it back.

I have recently experienced this fault. I found by applying a torsion motion to the lower half (holding it portrait with two hands at the bottom and applying a slight twisting force) made it work again properly temporarily. I'm sending mine back soon.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garpunkal:
I sent my nexus 7 off for repair due to screen lift... got it back and noticed that the back cover doesn't clip in properly at the top... it's slightly loose (open)... loose enough to put a fingernail behind it and open the case up...

should I be concerned that dust could gather inside and get it repaired again?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swisstourist:
Well mine is loose on the left side as well after repairing it myself.because the mother board was pushing the screen . after fixing it, mother board is pushing the back cover now.and the lift now is between the back cover and the silver plastic frame....

So there is no fix really ...more like a trade off.

This n7 is badly conceived, internal pressure inside than need to go somewhere.

Don't worry about dust, you can open it and look what they did around the screws?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garpunkal:
I think you're right! :) trade off, it's not too annoying and I now have easier access to getting inside the cover.... I do love my tablet though

I've repaired mine with some glue. ( contact cement)

Use a toothpick to put a bit of glue on the side of the screen when it's lifted, then put something like a heavy book on top to keep the screen inserted for a full night .

I was going to buy this device tomorrow but I thought to search a little bit before buying a device.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RED_:
I think I'm getting screen lift. I just noticed it two seconds ago while watching a video. I can hear the sort of cracking noise when pushing on the left side.

Should I be worried that pushing on it results in the screen pressing? Hard to explain but it's that thing on a PC where if you press on the monitor you get feedback. Like a white circle around your finger.

I'm not sure of I should do something about it, like contact Google. Is the cause a heat issue because I have been watching a lot of full screen videos on this device. I mean the back gets hot to the touch. Is it fine to continue watching a lot videos? It's probably the main thing I do with this device.

I'm typing this from my nexus 7 so sorry for errors.

I've got experience with 3 Nexus 7 tablets. All three had unresponsive battery issues in the first 2 weeks. The first I've swapped for another model, the second and third (one for me and one for my wife) I've manually opened and dis- and then re-connected the battery connector. This solved the issue. I've noticed the swapped Nexus (slightly newer one) had extra tape around the battery connector but this didnt help sadly.

3 for 3 on tablets going 'dead' on me, luckily the fix was easy to pin down with a bit of google searching and a little tweaking (hopefully not voiding the warranty)

Dont get me wrong, I love the tablet, but I wish they'd get their stuff a bit better tested before shipping out.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muiriddin:
No option for None of these?

My device does not seem to have any of those faults. The only thing that I have noticed is an occasional seemingly random reboot, which seems to be related to location services. The only option I thought of checking was light bleed, but it is not any worse than my original Kindle Fire when I turn brightness to max, so I consider it a limitation of the screen technology, not a defect.

Bought mine from Fnac (France).... 16 days after my touch screen was lifting / not responding.

Returned it to Fnac who sent it to ASUS - they took two weeks to decide on replacing the DISPLAY module.

Check carefully your brand new nexus as ASUS doesn't authorise resellers to perform standard exchanges after the initial return period.

After one night, nexus 7 idle, I found the nexus dead. It wouldn't turn on, I thought it was completely drained of battery....it happens, you forget some app running and the following morning you found the device dead.

I put it to charge at the computer USB. went to work. came back after hours.....it doesn't turn on. If i put the cable (from usb or from original charger doesn't matter) I get weird flashing screen, with colored lines (noise) at regular intervals.

Hodling power button for 30 seconds doesn't help. Also power + volume down doesn't do anything.

Together with this screen tearing noise, I get noise from the speakers....

Dead Pixels?

Okay so I bought my Nexus 7 maybe 4 months ago and I recently noticed a large bulge of dead pixels. I tried contacting Google Support but they said they could not help me because I bought mine at Gamestop and not from the Play Store. So they tell me to contact Asus and they provide me a number. I call that number and the person on the other end is useless, he asks for my personal information right off the bat before I even get to explain my issue. I am not even sure he works for Asus. Does anyone have a legitimate number or contact line for Asus on Nexus 7 support?

I bought a Nexus 7 more then 2 months ago, it had a dead pixel, so I returned it, and got a new one (about 3 days ago, the store didn't rush to send me a new one), and it also has a dead pixel.

But it's barely visible, I can only see it if the screen is about 10 cm from my eyes and if the background is black, so I'm not gonna return it (I wouldn't want to wait another 2 months to get a new one).
