[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Breezer23:
I purchased this based on some feedback I had read one some other forums. I have tried nearly every major screen protector out there (Spigen, RearthUSA, Incipio, Switcheasy, BodyGuardz, XO Skins, Best Skins Ever, a ton of cheap ones off Amazon, Zagg, etc.). Up until this point, I had always found the Ultra Crystal from Spigen to be the best overall. Not anymore.

Before I get started I want to mention that the Martin Fields Screen protectors are not cheap. One screen protector for the Galaxy Nexus is $16.99 ($34.99 for one iPad protector and $29.99 for one Nexus 7 protector)and it only comes with one screen protector and a set of instructions. That's it.

One issue I've always found to be a huge problem with these dry, crystal clear screen protectors (Again, think Spigen Ultra Crystal) is that they show fingerprints so easily that it really can become a huge nuisance and to my surprise this one doesn't show much at all. I would say it's nearly as good at resisting fingerprints as a matte finish screen protector.

A very innovative feature this screen protector offers is that it is completely removable. They include a Mylar sheet that you can stick it to if you need to take it off. Just apply a small piece of scotch tape at the bottom corner and slowly pull to remove it. This does bring up the biggest problem that I have with this protector though. It is somewhat brittle. It will crease if you aren't careful with it. In fact, if you look in the pictures I have posted, you'll notice a slight crease in the bottom right corner. I've emailed the seller that I purchased it from on Amazon to see if they'll replace it. Not sure if that'll happen and it isn't all that distracting.

Quick Summary:

PROS:

As clear as any I've ever used

Does not pick up oils like most clear, dry application screen protectors generally do

Feels as close to glass as anything I've ever used

Reusable

Covers entire screen

Comes with a Camera Lens cover as well

CONS:

Not cheap. If you purchase directly from MartinFields.com it is $16.99 + $4.99 shipping. Be aware of fakes on Amazon.

Doesn't come with much. Just a simple paper package, a screen protector and a Mylar sheet to apply it to if you decide to take it off and use it later.

Fragile, it will crease if you aren't careful

Almost too big. If you don't line it up absolutely perfect it will not adhere on the sides, bottom. It's almost cut too perfect to a fault.

Anyway, here are some pictures. I had just ran my palm down the screen to show you just how well this does on hand oils.

Well I take it no one found this helpful?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Blown 89:
I already have one but I will concur with everything you said ;)

Mine creased before I put it on but I was able to bend it back and can't tell you where the crease ever was at this point. Mine is scratched up pretty good at this point but I'm hard on phones so it's not surprising. I've yet to find a screen protector that holds up to my use.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Breezer23:
Mind had a crease initially. I contacted their support line in Hong Kong and they had one sent out to me the next day. I ended up buying one for my Nexus 7 and my iPad 3.

It's weird, the Ultra Crystal's and many other dry application protectors leave blue smears when you try to wipe away fingerprints. These don't. They are there but they don't leave that annoying blue greasy smudge.

OK I have been downloading and reflashing few ROMs and now I have forgotten which one I flashed in.

Here's what it reads on About the Phone.

Kernel Version: 3.0.38-Cyanogenmod-g2a514aa joye@joey-desktop#1

CM version: 10-20120802-SKANK-Crespo

I think it is either Jellybro or JellyBelly CMREX. I thought it's the latter, but not so sure anymore. Can anyone tell? :confused:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wunderkind:
OK I think I figured it out by downloading the two ROMs and matching the file size with the one in my sdcard. The CMREX Rom is way too big. Looks like I am running Jellybro.

Man I'm such a dork. Been hanging out at the wrong ROM thread asking questions on a different ROM. :eek:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarknessWarrior:
Hey guys, lately i've been developing an Android online game that i pretend to sell on Google Play for about 1€, and as i am about to launch it to the market within a week or two, the question i have is: what should i do to make it as hard as possible to crack and be distributed for free? I am not rich and i need the money i hope to get from the downloads to pay for the server... so i wouldn't like to have loads of people loading my server and not paying :(

Any ideas? I thought about making regular updates to the app and making the server to only accept the latest app version and denying access to old app versions, but i'm unsure about how efficient that is.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
If the app requires additional data, you could have it verified online each time a user attempts to connect.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarknessWarrior:
http://android-developers.blogspot.pt/2010/09/securing-android-lvl-applications.html

found this, the last solution "You can offload license validation to a trusted server." is exactly what i'm looking for, having the server checking license and only accepting sockets from legit clients, not really sure how to do it yet, but i'll try to implement that.

Guys,

I am trying my hand using Dsixda+Cygwin and I want to load up a ROM to test with. It says it can use .tar, .img, or factory ROM files but I am not having any luck with it recognizing my files. I have tried the .tar and .win files from CWM and TWRP backups but Dsixda does not recognize them. How can I create a backup of my current ROM into a file that Dsixda will recognize and allow me to modify?

Thanks,
[Nexus 7 General] TheMavic:
Hey guys!

Been a while since I have really been an active user on here. I just purchased my first-ever tablet and decided to go with the Nexus 7 because of the hype around it. I can honestly say that I am completely speechless to find what this thing brings to the table. I did some research here before I bought it, and noticed that some units were having some cosmetic issues (the 1mm thing) etc, but the unit I purchased didn't have any of these. I bought it brand new from Micro Center here in Dallas for $249 (the 16gb version).

For a first-time tablet user, I believe I made the right choice. Jelly Bean is just incredibly fast and smooth and all of my favorite apps load in the snap of a finger. The first app I played around with was Google Earth and I got lost in it for about 2 hours before I realized it. I can't see myself getting something different for a long time.

Hope everybody feels the same about it as I do. I see that you guys have a pretty devoted community around it.

Welcome to the club. Prior to the Nexus 7 tablets were too limited, bulky and overpriced for what little they do. Nexus 7 is my travel companion and I'm eyeing the Galaxy Note 10.1 released this month as a desktop PC alternative that will stay on my desk.

That actually looks like a really nice tab. That could easily replace my laptop but not so much my desktop. Been looking for a reason to get rid of my laptop anyhow, just wasn't completely sold on the Transformer (probably because I didn't mess around with it too much when buying the N7).

[Nexus 7 General] hashibahoohaa:
No no no... missed the wink? I certainly wish the OP good luck with the device and hope its a great defect free experience. Its indeed a mega device, I myself ordered one on 28th June, I guess you know the GOOG Canada story :( The only reason I cancelled was, that 1-2% (or lesser) tablets which have defects, very likely that I would have got one :) I have never been lucky with the newly launched devices (be it laptops, phones etc). Seeing that 12 point defect list, I was certain I would be getting atleast one of those... ;) I was desperate to switch to Android, I guess will have to wait longer. Just no patience or bandwidth to take any more chances.
[Nexus 7 General] IceColdKila:
Hey MAvic Can you please post your SSN number it should start with a C70K or something like that

C Is the YEAR

7 Is the Month it was made

0 Not sure what this mean

K is for the hardware revision

So if yours is C50K it was made in May 2012 I am holding off for a Version made in September C90K. Google lead supervisor, said these models will have newer SHARP IPS LCD's without all the Color problems or new Color Corrected IPS LED panels without the Lag Or Blur when you swipe you see the Icons trailing.

Hydis HV070WX2 vs newer Hydis HW090WX3

Not sure if this means Google or ASUS are unwilling or can't fix the current Hue or Color saturation problems of a yellowish tint or Dull washed out colors.

[Nexus 7 General] TheMavic:
The sticker on the back of mine says C60K so I guess it would be June 2012. I haven't been having any screen issues so far if that helps.
[Nexus 7 General] WzFBaby:
Any truth to this? Because those are huge claims and will have everybody in an uproar for sure. A better improved screen is coming and only those who order in September and forward will be fortunate enough to have such model will drive people crazy. I need details.
[Nexus 7 General] Warren_Orange:
If you can buy the N7 in a shop I would do that. Then you can return it easily. If you buy in a shop look for the serials that start with C70K and above, they are the latest stock. I have had two C60K's and they both have had screen separation.

If you buy online go for the 16GB, because these are selling a lot faster than the 8GB and you will have a better chance of getting newer stock. Too many older 8GB's sat around in the depot.

I'm on my second 8GB Nexus and it still isn't perfect, but good enough. Despite these niggles Its easily the best tablet at the moment.
[Nexus 7 General] tommykwan222:
Thank you for your advice.

Howwver, in my country, I can only buy the 16GB version only and from the reseller only.

Now , I don't have any idea about which serial number of nexus 7 I can get it.

It seems that I should buy it
[Nexus 7 General] demandarin:
I'd say don't sweat it. Its just nitpicking. These devices have 1yr. Warranty anyways. So if it does hold true, guess what, just send it in after its confirmed. Reason being display/color issue.

But those issues he mentioned I've never experienced. There might be a bad batch or some with display issues but far from majority. Even like in that article from expert. I found the comments section to be more informative. They basically slamming the expert. Someone will always be able to point a flaw someone. Nothing is perfect. Same thing happens with several thousand dollar camera & L.E.D. TV. People complain about this or that not calibrated right.

Anyways the calibration down through initial firmware. If this is a major issue or becomes one, Google could just push new update to recalibrate it.

I'm not pressed about the rumored new displays. As with everyything on the net, take it with a grain of salt. Don't be consumed with rumored details. Enjoy your device till the concrete facts are released from Google themselves. That expert from Displaymate finds something off with every single display they test..lol. no display is perfect to displaymate.
[Nexus 7 General] paulsam7:
There are actually 2 serial numbers on the box sticker. That one is labeled "SSN", and does not appear ANYWHERE in viewable settings. If you go into About Tablet --> Status, you will find a different serial number, the same as the one labeled "CSSN" on the sticker.

So, if you haven't kept your box, you'll have no idea about the month of manufacture.
[Nexus 7 General] itch808:
I feel like all the bad press on the forums must be MS and Apple workers. I got mine with no problems at all! All of the websites never mentioned any problems either. It's just "forum buzz".

[Nexus 7 General] Chocu1a:
I just picked up a BNIB N7 8gb off Craigslist for $150. No problems at all with the screen here. Great tablet. In fact it is the:cowboy: perfect companion to my G.Nex.
[Nexus 7 General] androidkid311:
so judging by the comments it seems like they have improved the quality control with the tablets. Wasn't apple and Microsoft giving bad press I had two bad tablets! So I might go order my third soon.
[Nexus 7 General] CharliesTheMan:
Welcome to the tablet world, its great to hear you had a positive experience.

I bought mine from staples like the second day staples started to sell them at a few stores before most stores new they were for sale. Mine was in great shape.

I actually don't think the quality has changed on the majority of the tablets people buy. I just think that as more people post we are finding the nexus 7 problems were blown way out of proportion as far as the good to bad ratio. I'm not saying that the users with problems are lying, you can pretty much tell by the post if its a true problem or one the person dreamed up.

I'm saying that a week or two ago people would attempt to warn buyers that every tablet was flawed unless there was a rare miracle. Now its starting to show that the poor tablets are the exception and that's even with the first batch having a lot of bad ones.

I think as production continues problems will be few and far between.
[Nexus 7 General] Summerfly:
I think the number of complaints seem high on the N7 is because of the higher number of devices sold compared other tablets which would naturally mean more devices with defects sold and probably to a more vocal group of people. People who don't have problems usually don't say anything as with most products.

There's no doubt some are from over critical apple fans, there will always be people that attack on rival company products to their preferred company.
[Nexus 7 General] shortlived:

[Nexus 7 General] Warren_Orange:
Can you not ask the reseller to check it before sending it to you?
[Nexus 7 General] airmaxx23:
Part of the issue is that the majority of people who receive a perfectly fine tablet aren't going to jump on the forums and say "I have a perfect N7", it's only the people who have issues.

I'll be getting my 4th replacement Monday or Tuesday, 3 devices had bad screen lift and/or the bezel separating from the screen and the last one had a bunch of dead/stuck pixels.
[Nexus 7 General] TheMavic:
Talk about shabby luck! But yeah, I agree with you on the fact that most people with good devices won't get on here to praise it.

It's good you are being patient about the defects. Good things come to those that wait!
[Nexus 7 General] sRDennyCrane:
I've bought 2 Nexus 7's, the first a month ago, and the 2nd 10 days later. No problems with either. The vast majority are fine. The few people who did have an issue are very vocal here, and as stated, iPeople and M$ people are quick to hop onto these forums and make the issues seem much more than what they are.
[Nexus 7 General] TheMavic:
Welp, after all of my bloating on here about finding a good device, I noticed the screen separation thing today when I got home. It was one of those "hey, if you dont think you have it, look again, but closer". It kills me that I am so anal about stuff, because it's very minor, and everybody is saying it will only get worse. I bought it B&M, so I am going to return it tomorrow. I'm not sure if I am going to grab another one with the current state that they are in. Such a shame. Will definitely be re-buying one when they mature no doubt.
[Nexus 7 General] plambda:
I have had a few minor issues, but they are not at the level to make me go through the process of returning the device.
[Nexus 7 General] gogol:
Source? Or it has never happened ...
[Nexus 7 General] zZDave_Stud:
Well according to this claim having a different LCD display wont change its appearance since its apparently a firmware issue. All that crap is complete bs. What probably happened was they watched transformers and then that tegra 3 glitch having to do with saving power or something happened and washed out the screen. There's a thread for the fix buried under all these complaint threads lol.

OK, I'll join in...
