Just to stir the pot - I never considered screen lift real.

The bezel is flexible plastic, and the left side can dip a bit.

Maybe the bezel should have been aluminum; not a big deal anyway.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kboya:
You haven't had it then. I've had two with the screen lifting along the left side, and I've seen and used ones without it. I can assure you it is very real and is a big deal.

More generally, the 'what do you expect for £200' argument is a false one as the price is not set for faulty goods. I will keep returning them until I get a good one, and I'd suggest no-one settles for less than that. But, hey, choice is yours.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fusion777:
Nah. My argument us sound.

No product ever made is perfect and we all accept some level of compromise. When you buy a $4 hamburger your expectations are lower than a $10 one. For you the flaws are unacceptable. For others they reflect a 'cheap' but still satisfying product. Like you said, the choice is yours

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattym320:
So can I be the new guy here and ask for a definition of screen lift? I'm assuming it unevenness with the touch screen based on comments in this thread. And what am I looking for when inspecting this?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMagus:
set it level, and look at the left side.. if the glass is coming up above the silver bezel, you've got lift, chances are you'll be able to push it down and it will be spongy and pop back up
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneydroid:
But if your cheap hamburger came with the top half of the bun missing, would you just accept that cos its cheap?

The dodgy screen lift has nothing to do with it being cheap, its a fault.

I've had my third nexus for nearly two weeks, it was just as cheap as the first and second but has no faults with the screen.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
If you only see glass in the middle of the left side, and not at the ends, your plastic bezel is dipping a bit.

The glass is flat; it does not curve.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deaglecat:
I returned mine. Hoping for a revision before I have another go... the last exchange was such a hassle.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fusion777:
There's an irrefutable connection between cheap, flaw and faults.

Anyway I'm done with the topic. I totally get being dissatisfied. Knock yourself out:)

Anyone tried this launcher yet. Seems like it could be a win but for $10 through their website meaning no easy refund...I dunno. Take a look if you haven't seen it. Report back if you are using. Looks good!!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohan32:
Hello,

Has anyone found a way to play the free Hulu videos either in the Android Browser or in a modded Hulu app? All the methods I've tried don't seem to work.

I don't have Hulu plus but I'd like to still watch the Hulu free videos that I normally can via my PC on my Nexus 7. Thanks!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexdecimal:
I was curious about that too. What methods have you been trying?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcat007:
Haven't tried Hulu, but Crackle works well, as does EpixHD (if you have it on your TV).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExploreMN:
Splashtop to your desktop PC should work in most cases.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohan32:
I've tried some method that edits libflashplayer.so, a cracked flash APK, and a couple init.d scripts but none work. Maybe its a JB issue?

And I would use Splashtop but I don't want to need to have my home PC on as well. If I could keep it on-device for the most part, it would be great :)

hi guys,

I'm trying to install the rom holics

Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1585373&highlight=install+s-on

I'm S-ON user according to the instructions in the thread are these:

Should S-ON users follow the instruction provided below:

1. First, flash boot.img file inside the ROM with fastboot.

2. Boot into recovery and continue with the installation.

3. During the installation process be sure to * select the option * S-ON.

4. After installation, you will be Able to Find the boot.img file on the SD card root.

5. Copy the file to your computer boot.img and flash it Again With fastboot as you did at step 1.

The first step was performed correctly using the command

fastboot flash boot boot.img from windows CMD

then in the second step I enter recovery mode by pressing power and volume or also running the command:

adb reboot recovery

and this is where the image pincipio get a smartphone with the green icon to upgrade I think, and then weighted with the red triangle that is happening?

or I need to install this rom but I have the boot unlocked but S-ON
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
Hello. It sounds like you could be booting into the stock recovery.

After you unlocked your bootloader, did you flash a custom recovery? (like CWM? or WCX recovery?) You will need a custom recovery to be able to flash custom ROMs.

Look for the Vivid All-In-One kit by Hasoon2000. It's a program you can run in windows that can do various things (like easily flash a custom recovery). I recommend the CWM that it offers.

When you get the All-In-One kit, make sure to extract it to a basic path (like C:\VIVID) so it can run its commands successfully.

Once the recovery is flashed, you can start your steps over that you mentioned.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cancha:
hello friend,

thanks for the help, I managed to install the rom but the last step to re-flash the boot.img I generates the installation I get the following error message

C: \ Vivid \ Data> fastboot flash boot boot.img

****** sending 'boot' (4424 KB) ... OKAY [0.904s]

**************** writing 'boot' ... FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))

finished. total time: 1.220s

but if I can use the phone with the rom installed, but also went back to remove some widgets from htc rerunning recovery mode generated another boot.img me but I can not flash it and the changes do not take effect
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
Read the below post from the wise kozmikkick. I believe your phone needs to experience one "insecure" kernel flash first, then it will allow you to flash custom kernels after. He has a kernel thread mentioned in the link below where you can get said insecure kernel.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30458931#post30458931

EDIT: I think I found the thread where you can download the insecure (aka "stockish") kernel. It's mentioned in the first post of the thread below. Give that kernel a flash (It looks like it is in a ZIP format that you can install via your ClockWorkMod recovery?) then try to flash your desired kernel. If you want to flash the stockish kernel manually, look inside the zip. There is a "holiday.img" file.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1572015

Someone please correct me if I am wrong!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cancha:
Thanks friend, I have another question now install the kernel via recovery (install zip file), now continuing with the last step for me to stay? or back everything from the first step?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
Since you are S-OFF, I believe once you have flashed the stockish kernel (check to make sure it says the flash was successful!), you can reboot into recovery, do your 4 wipes (data, cache, dalvik in advanced, and /system in mounts&storage), then install whatever rom from zip. The appropriate kernel is usually included in the rom install. That should be it (again, someone please correct me if I'm wrong!)

Good luck... Holics is a good rom!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cancha:
I'm S-ON, then install the zip stockish kernel in the log I did flash boot.img went correctly, now you recommend I reinstall the ROM Holic again from the ZIP, and not the boot.img flashearia I generated after installation? just install the zip? without following the steps outlined in the thread Holic?

thanks friend
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cancha:
anything but I've noticed that when you install the kernel zip stockish, funcioa Me no wifi, no wifi mac address, this also happened to flash the kernel boot.img holic (via fastboot) within its corresponding ZIP, then fix it flash the kernel again but with a holic. bat in which modules including a folder, this is normal because it happens?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] kozmikkick:
If you are s-on you must always flash the boot.IMG contained within the ROM zip via fastboot. Until you decide to get s-on you won't have much selection if any all for other kernels.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mg2195:
You have to fast boot flash the boot.img in fast boot, after that you have to flash the zip in recovery

The zip contains more then just the kernel...it also contains the wifi driver for that kernel...so you have to flash the zip to get the driver...

So

1) fastboot flash boot boot.img

2) boot to recovery

3) flash zip

That process applies for all kernels/roms (unless you go s-off in the future)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] LaZiODROID:
Crap - For some reason I read that cancha is S-OFF. Sorry about that, cancha. Thanks guys.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] ronnie498:
Just as mg said

Flashboot boot.img

Boot into recovery

Wipe data, cache etc

Hey I just wanted to know peoples opinions on what is the best CM10 Rom so far. Especially considering the things that dont work like MMS or tethering or Netflix (I dont think any work with it though)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndroidGraphix:
I like it. It's clean and boost free.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mickrg123:
Just loaded everything looks good except camera or gallery doesn't work. Am I missing something?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] llama555:
Which CM10 rom are you running? Invis? The official CM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mickrg123:
Official CM10 nightly
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stryker1297:
mms aint working yet but should in next official nightly. which should be in a few hours... other than that, official definitely had the most stable release!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hector93:
NFC also isn't working but hopefully it gets fixed soon including MMS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] toddbw:
You'll probably just want to roll with the officials. Most everything you want has already been or is soon to be merged.

What happened to the official thread in the original development sub forum? :what:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] syungyou:
i have used about a day and here are my thought

unlocked bootloader

i have cleaned cache format factory reset before install

after boot i have loaded my app with data not bloatware with toolbox pro

using go launcher no live wall paper and juice defender

rest of app are... well just application and few games.

and here is real pro and cons

Pro

Fast, it does the job, google and now other jb features are works perfectly

unlock bootloader can be easily done thanks you adam.

boot time is faster than what i used to use AOKP milestone 6.1

Con

UNSTABLE, within half a day rebooted like 3~4 times while i was doing something

who know how many times it rebooted while i wasnt looking.. it seems more because from battery status

there are few blank spots. i have no idea what is wrong kernel perhaps?

i am not sure i thought CM is made from AOSP so i thought it should be pretty stable but i guess not.

also i have car blue tooth device with handset free (GROM) it wont connect and my logitech one works perfectly

DATA also not stable it think for battery it tries to turn it off (i think it's from juice defender) but takes about 10~15 seconds before i get the data

if you dont have problem with rebooting at random times, some glitches and no softkey (it's nightly so i cant really say it's bad rom)

this is the ROM.. it's faster than any rom i have tried.. what do you guys think??

maybe i should have tried longer but for me it was too unstable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Narenji89:
does cm10 have any critical bugs??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Fallen224:
So, I was curious about a couple things.

First, how do nightlies work? Do you have to go and download a new file every single night and flash it? Or is there something working with the ROM that will flash a new version for you as it comes?

Second, I was curious as to when you guys think that CM10 for the SGSIII will be stable to the point where all major things, data, keys, gallery, camera, MMS, bluetooth, etc, are working reliably? I'm incredibly pleased with the stock experience, but there's always something to be gained from custom ROM's and I'm looking forward to being able to use CM10 I just don't want to miss a big part of my phone.

Not meaning to hijack the thread or anything! I'll throw in my two cents too by saying that I'd recommend the official CM10 based on the fact that MMS seemingly works currently and I'm unsure of how it's doing on the unofficial ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TechSavvy2:
Ummmm.......I dont have any of those issues....I recommend full wipe and retry...with newest official from get.cm

Again, its fully stable. In your "second" part, literally every single thing you listed is fully working and stable. Except soft keys which were actually disabled because they have the same purpose as hard keys and just take up valuable real estate. Yes, nightlies are every night but you can dirty flash if you're lazy. You only really need to flash once a major fix or update has been merged. Just follow the changelogs.

And for you, based on what you reported as not-working, I'd also say you got a bad flash or something. Mine runs almost identical to what stock JB ran on my GNexus. Only better with mods:)

Alright so everything was great i was using viper rom on my evo lte, i had been having trouble flashing kernels. I tried some app that would do it, flashed one and now im ****ed. this thing just won't boot up at all it goes in between the (htc quietly stupid) splash screen and the one that you see as you load recovery. (with like the little red writing crap) just back and fourth thats it.... i can access my boot loader and recovery, so far ive wiped the hell out of it, formated the internal card, and tried installing countless different rom. all do the same loop thingy.

PLEASE HELP, ILL TRY ANYTHING!!

Im unlocked with s-on

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thispaininmyhead:
I'm in the same boat except it had nothing to do with kernels... Just all of a sudden everything stopped working... Nothing flashes correctly... Md5 sums never match for restores... If I mess with it long enough twrp stops recognizing my internal SD... I've had to ruu like 3 times because of it... I've tried different recoveries... Countless different wipe methods... Nothing works... I'm lazy panda s-off... Tried both twrp 2.2.1 and even tried clockwork for awhile... After running ruu I re-root and flash either recovery and as soon as I wipe and flash a Rom I'm stuck at the splash no matter what Rom... So with that said I'm stuck with stock for now... No fun stuff anymore...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
thats why!! clockwork recovery is no good for this phone!! your not supposed to use it..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thispaininmyhead:
But as I said I was getting the same problems with twrp... And the internal SD problem happened using twrp... It doesn't matter what recovery I use... I've used both superwipe zips or just plane system wipe within twrp and every time something screws up and I get stuck at the splash screen having to run the ruu bootloader zip just to have a working phone...

Ive just got no idea where my backup went, its just simply GONE. ive been messing around with android sdk so that i could relock my stupid bootloader so i can flash a ruu or whatever.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mattemer:
Did you mount the correct sd card in twrp?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] premo15:
Lol don't do that, I'm sure you would regret it. The important thing is that your problem is completely solvable so don't lose hope. Did you take a look at the thread I linked you? If you have the sdk installed you should be able to flash a new boot image, which would be much better than going the RUU route in my opinion.

You don't understand Duetsch, I mean German? It was just an unboxing and walk through.

As far as I know, no Tegra3 device has LTE. I don't know what the issue behind it is. It's either a size issue of the chip and radio or the chip causes some kind of interference that messes with the chip. I suspect that later. Once it's figured out, then it'll be hitting smartphones and tablets like there's no tomorrow.

If I can do this will it save all my data and stuff and just update my present operating system without having to do a factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Are you on stock or a custom ROM? If you're going to flash a custom ROM to get to Jelly Bean, you're going to lose everything. It's a clean install of the OS, and custom ROMs are pre-rooted.

Temp unrooting and then wiping the OS to install a new one makes no difference :P

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
If you've already unlocked the bootloader to root, then no you won't lose your SDcard. Custom recoveries used to flash ROMs don't wipe the /sdcard/ path.

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------

Well his situation will be different with a CDMA model because he has to flash a custom ROM to do it, meaning he's wiping the entire OS.

Hey guys,

I've noticed that other phones (only tested with iPhone & BlackBerry) seem to always connect to mobile data using 3G when I only occasionally get it. The rest of the time I'm always using EDGE. In other low reception areas, I don't even detect the EDGE network when they do.

Is that a bug, or is the phone's hardware less performant than higher end phones?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Madarox:
Hi,

I'm getting a galaxy s3 very soon and I'm thinking about getting a nexus 7 with it.But as you know,nexus 7 doesn't have 3G so my only option to access network on it when there's no wifi network available is to use my future s3 as a wifi hotspot.So my questions are:

1-Is data consumption when using the phone as a wifi hotspot the same as if I'm normally using 3G on the phone itself ?

2-How long can an android(specifically the S3 if it matters much) act as a wifi hotspot before the battery runs out ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. Yes.

data consumption will be sum of what you consume on your phone + on your tablet.

2. Battery life when using Wi-Fi hotspot depends on data activity. During light/no data activity via hotspot, your battery will last longer than heavy data activity.

-I have galaxy SII and I get more than 5 hrs (8hrs max) on the average when using my phone as Wi-Fi hotspot.
