[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mechanio:
I wondered the same thing, but it turned out to be the other way around: now I wonder why I have a fancy phone that I only ever use for - get this - making phone calls. Sounds ridiculous, I know, but I swear it is true.

At this point the only other thing I use the phone for is tethering the N7 to 3G when I am out of wifi range. But so far I have only done that once, and lately I find myself going out with only the N7, leaving my phone at home.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddie3130:
Nope i love the size of the tab an screen. Wouldnt trade it for any other tab out there.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No_Nickname90:
Nope. My main reason for the Nexus 7 is for portable gaming. I have a 3DS, but there aren't too many games I want to play on it. I play PKMN emulators and some games that I got using my Google Credit. LoL!! It's more reliable than my phone of course. And also, it fits into my pocket. Also it's good for class. I write my notes, because if you keep typing you'll forget how to write. LoL!! I use my tablet for my eBooks though. So I can go through the book and take notes in class and stuff. And I can text from there using Google Voice. =.P

My school has this online thing called Citrix that allows you to use paid programs like Photoshop over a network. There is an official Android app that allows you to remote into the computer instead of downloading a temporary connection on your actual computer. So I can use Photoshop on my tablet.

I'm sorry. I just started ranting, but you reminded me how much I love my Nexus 7. =.D

I did not get the whole tablet thing until I got one. I have a computer on each TV and a killer one in my house.

I use it all the time.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TjPhysicist:
All u guys who use it for games and videos etc often, how many of you got the 8Gig one?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No_Nickname90:
Ha!! Are you serious!? My tablet is slowly replacing my E4GT, which has a 16GB internal.

I have 13.24GB usable memory, and 5.56GB left. That means I've already used 7.68GB of memory. If I had the 8GB, I'd be almost out of space. LoL!! And I still haven't transferred all my games.

I'm sorry, but I knew that 8GB of internal only memory wouldn't be enough. Games are like 300MB-600MB these days. LoL!! And don't get me started on Gameloft. I still haven't transferred all my Gameloft games. Like Asphalt 6 (I hate 7) and Amazing SpiderMan. I may just keep those on my phone.

I only have about 500MB of random files on my tablet. I think they're all ROM related. LoL!! No videos since I have NetFlix.

Sorry I over answered your question. :silly:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oaba09:
I didn't have a tablet before so all my internet browsing, email checking, and media consumption were done in my galaxy s2. After I bought an ipad 2, most of stuff that I did in my smartphone migrated to my new tablet because of significant improvement that the bigger screen gives. A couple of days ago, I realized how bulky my ipad 2 is so I decided to give it to my sister and buy a 7 '' tablet. I was originally choosing between the galaxy tab 2 7'' and Nexus 7. I decided to get the nexus 7 because IMO, I'll get more value for money out of it.

Right now, I'm using my nexus 7 as my primary web browsing device. My laptop is still used for media consumption when I'm at home but when I'm outside, my nexus 7 does the job. My galaxy s2's main purpose now is to make/take calls, send/receive text messages, and act as a portable wifi router when I'm outside.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.m0x:
Good choice. Gtab2 isn't that great because of poor support from Samsung. This baby gets the best support.

I rarely use my laptop at home now except for work and mostly just use my phone for, well, phone calls or when the nexus is charging. Odd that!

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebobp:
I actually use the N7 over my GN whenever I have it; it's still very convenient to use and the big screen is just too much to pass. The only times I use my GN now are when it's not convenient to bring the tablet along, or when the tether signal is too bad.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DomOctober:
I think it's changed the way I use my devices. I pretty much keep my N7 bone stock and play games and browse the Web on and it's my phone (and PC) that generally gets used less.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] damengual:
I find my N7 has become my go to device, my iMac and Mac book gather dust unless I'm working n them (photography)

My tf101 was really neglected for a while as well (until I flashed a stable jelly bean ROM) but still its my at home tablet for reading and Netflix.

My phone (Nexus S) is mostly just a phone now, I have my texts forwarded with tablet sms, my productivity apps synced on all, my devices.

Out of 3 JB devices the N7 is the most useful and most effective in doing what a touch device should do.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
I use my device on average about 1 - 2 hours per day for just web viewing and sending emails. Once I get my USB-OTG adapter later this week I feel I will use it even more for gaming and Office tasks.

I regret buying PS Vita ever since I purchased Nexus 7. XD
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
I ALMOST pulled the trigger on the PS Vita lol. I got the Japanese OG PSP when it was first released before the states got it a month or so later. Sure it can't play USA coded UMD's....(what are UMDs?? :P lol)

I actually use the N7 more than any tablet I have had. My first tablet was the Viewsonic Gtab 10 incher. Good tablet for the money, but too bulky. Next was the Kindle Fire which I rooted as well and turned into a tablet. This was way better than the gtab because of the portability factor. The only things the KF didn't have or worked well was bluetooth and GPS. Other than that, the KF would have been the perfect tablet. But of course the N7 came to be. Perfect tablet for me. Browse the web occasional pay bills, play games, 4 year old pacifier lol....many uses!

I do have a HTC Sensation rooted and running the Bruce's Kang JB, but I hardly play games on that now, that I have the N7. I use the phone primarily as a music player when working on the yard or relaxing.

Do I regret the N7? Nope, because I use it every day. Sure I have a laptop, most recently running Win8 (which I actually like btw) and that grabbed my attention for a spell. I still do most of my budgets on excel so that works better in my case, but I go back to the N7 whenever I am waiting at a doctors office or whatever. Perfect for my uses IMO.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmm200:
My response to the original topic - You have to be kidding. This tablet goes with me everywhere.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
My phone still gets its usage but things get split up better. I have my phone for text and emails. My N7 for web and media consumption.

It works. My phone doesn't die at 5 anymore. Great partnership.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matrix0886:
I can't figure out how to answer your question, lol.

I bought this tablet and loved it, but it pretty much just sits on the headboard of my bed and is pretty much just a clock. I paid for a $200 alarm clock, lol. But, I do occasionally take it off if i'm going to the doctor or to get my car fixed. Use it to watch a movie on while I wait. I only travel once a year, which basically translates to "I only really really use it for a week once a year" :P It'd get more use if I took it to work with me, use it for reading while i'm on my lunch break. Unfortunately, all employees who have a locker have to share their locker, and as much as I love my coworkers, I don't trust any of them that much, lol.

Basically, I have no idea if I regret buying it or not. I do regret buying it as soon as it came out. If I had waited like I normally do, by the time I was ready to buy, the 16Gig had dropped down to what I paid for the 8. So that I DO regret :( I normally wait 2 months before I buy any new gadget. Lesson learned.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEFJAMVAN:
I'm a student who also hates carrying a laptop around campus. I love how the N7 is very portable.

In the use case, I have a smartphone which is where I do most things on but for gaming and other long tasks I use the N7.

Hi guys,

I m a noobie n has just rooted my phone.

The first ROM i flashed was omega black blue v15 - XWLPG.

I m not sure it the ROM is already stable but everything i unlock my phone, sometimes it will on my Flash Light itself.

Is it because of bug?

Also, can i know what is the best kernel for this ROM?

I cant post in Omega forum because i m extremely new (have not reach my 10 post quota yet :p).

Anyone mind to help?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
u can change the kernel to say like, Siyah v4.1.1 or Dream Kernel and see:)

Secondly, i read sumwhere tat i cant simply flash a rom with any kernel or it will bricked the phone... Tats y im worry since im so new n noob...

But i appreciated the link u shared :)...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
dont worry ma8, custom Krenel's like Siyah, dream,dorimanx,cm9,cm10 are all Brick bug free kernel's, so flashing them will not do any harm to ur phone in the first place.

only the stock 4.0.4 firmware kernel's are the culprits.

any ways if ur that reluctant then u can always change ur rom for sure:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A | | [a] N:
Does tat mean i can flask any kernel on any rom tat is compatible with ics 4.0.3?

I am looking for a cheep pair of in ears...with acceptable sound quality and also acceptable build quality. The stock Galaxy S3 in-ears were totally okay for me with the exception that the build quality is misrable (broken wire within 2 months). I saw the in-ears from HTC...with flat cable. It seems that the build quality is exceptionally good!

Can anybody say how the soundquality compares to Galaxy S3 stock ear buds? Also I read in a youtube unboxing comment that the ear bud somehow only really functions with HTC mobiles...(something about driver error)...I have no idea about this...but it is hard to imagine that hTC will cripple the earbuds somehow. Can anybody confirm if the HTC stock in-ear works with the S3.

I am just wondering how many times I press powerkey of my phone everyday, so I made a little mod to count. :)

Here is vta2-kernel with this mod:

vta-kernel #52

For those kernel with touchwake by Ezekeel, use this.

And here is a standalone version. ( this standalone patch is **UNTESTED** , let me know if you found any mistake )

with this mod, you could use following command to know how many times you have pressed powerkey:

/* kernel with Touch Wake */
$[B] cat /sys/class/misc/touchwake/counter [/B]

/* kernel without Touch Wake */
$[B] cat /sys/class/misc/powerkey_counter/counter[/B]

So how many times you press powerkey per day?

Dl drivers directly Samsung. I think the proper Samsung drivers end in .4.5. You could also try the drivers from the note or s3, ends in .4.6 (but that's a longshot). Make sure you have a good cable. Clean the usb port on your phone with compressed air. Check usb pins on phone for malformation.

can you directly link me to the driver? The phone charges on the usb port so I doubt its a damaged port or cable connection problem.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aces170:
Its been sometime since I have bought the note. I was wary of installing custom ROM's due to the various hardbrick issues. I have installed custom ROM's on other android devices (Galaxy S, Dell Venue) hence do have some basic knowledge. I am on stock rooted Indian ICS ROM :silly:

Two questions before I start:

1. I am sitting on a potential dangerous ROM, and I know it. Has there been any light on EMMC hardbrick bug by Samsung, (I have not tried any OTA updates in fear of bricking the phone). I am on Android version 4.0.3 (baseband version N7000DDLP4).

2. Is the CWM hardbrick bug sorted?

So I intended to follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Flash stock GB ROM through ODIN.

2. Root and install CWM (Is CWM the only method of installing custom ROM's)

3. Install the custom ROM (I was looking at Liquid Black ROM based on CM9)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rraaka:
sounds ok

use pc odin to flash GB tar file

CWM is the only way to install/flash zip files of custom roms that are available here.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeetu1981:
1. No rom is dangerous, it is just the Kernel, change stock kernel with some safe kernel and you will be okay.

2. Yes, use safe kernel like Speedmod or Notecore, they have safe cwm too.

Maximum of custom roms can be installed using cwm recovery only, but look for Alliance rom, it can be flashed with odin too.
