I'm wanting to encrypt my phone and I'm wondering. Will this cause a problem when I flash a new ROM?

I'm currently running Cyanogen 10 Nightly 9/26 and I plan on sticking with them.

So when a new Nightly comes out will I have to decrypt my phone before flashing?

[Nexus 7 Accessories] philburkhardt:
The case sold on Google Play is completely different. It has a cover over the screen that you open like a book, and it's made out of TPU. The Incipio case is a hard case, with no cover on the front. The Play store also charges tax and shipping, so that $20 ends up costing $32.83. The Incipio case is only $24.99 on Amazon. Tax is about $2.37, and if you have Amazon Prime shipping is free. That comes out to $27.36, which is a better deal IF you are looking for a low profile hard case.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] mfucci:
Don't know why, but I cannot seem to be able to find it on Amazon.. Do you happen to have a link?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] philburkhardt:
Hmmmm, yesterday they had the pink one and the black one listed. Today I can only find the pink, and it's temporarily out of stock. It did just come out, so I am assuming they are waiting for their stock.

Here's the link for the pink one:

[Nexus 7 Accessories] jchidori:
seems like a pretty solid case that doesn't add too much thickness to the device. my only gripe is that it doesn't hug the borders enough, i mean if you were to drop it on a corner, it would still get damaged or scratched to some degree. please correct me if i am wrong on that
[Nexus 7 Accessories] krash183:
Not to threadcrap but for 25 bucks....doesn't seem worth it. A tpu case that's 4 bucks shipped seems to be on par with this case
[Nexus 7 Accessories] philburkhardt:
Have you purchased both so that you have an actual comparison, or are you just assuming?

TPU cases add much more bulk than a slim hard plastic case. Just look at the pictures for a TPU case. You can see by looking at the cutouts for the buttons and speakers that there is considerable bulk added. The Incipio Feather case is much thinner. Similar to the Poetic Element case, which is also a slim fitting hard plastic case.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] nexusplexus:
yes, but how does this compared to other hard shell cases from ebay for less than half the cost?

i've purchased hard cases from ebay before for phones and 'brand name' hard cases, there doesn't seem to be much difference...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] philburkhardt:
I completely agree with that. I usually buy cheapos on ebay, too. But, I haven't seen many hard plastic cases for the N7. Just lots of TPU's. I actually went with the Poetic Element case for $15 shipped.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] jchidori:
seems like this also does not cover the silver bezel of the nexus 7.

i think i might jump on to the white cruzerlite tpu case

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008U1NENG

but i'm still debating between this and the fit folio

20 bucks + a screen protector.. might as well spend 27 for fitfolio
[Nexus 7 Accessories] player911:
I use a Poetic Smart Case (FYI). I have a Ringke Slim case on my Galaxy Nexus, similar to this, and I love it.

It barely protects the device from damages of a fall or screen scratches, but a good quality screen protector + slim case should cover most incidents. It is also barely noticable on the phone. The color matches perfectly and I really don't notice any difference. Coming from a TPU case on my Galaxy Nexus, the SLIM cases are actually thinner and feel more natural. So going from a TPU case to a SLIM fit case, it feels like I'm not using a case at all. It protects the back covers from slipping and sliding (scratching) around takes some abuse (dents) off the device.

I've always liked a flap on my tablets though.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] NealJ777:
I have a review of both the Feather and the OEM case on my blog. Am I allowed to post a link?

Yes, I have both cases. If I were to go with a shell case I would prefer the Feather.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pongalong:
I'm running a Galaxy Nexus, Jelly Bean.I just noticed after a long while that my avatar in the Gmail app was incorrect. After trying to change it, I noticed that clicking the contact doesn't bring up the local "me" contact so I removed it in hopes that it would sync correctly. Now clicking the contact says "contact does not exist" and asks if I'd like to add them. Obviously the email and names match, since it's the google account I use on the phone. Is there a way to get it to properly sync with the local "me" contact on the phone, or do I have to add a second contact of myself into google contacts?

On home PC I get the normal 30d 15u on phone its opposite .look at the picture from phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] austinsnyc:
Whats wrong? Those are all wifi tests
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chvybeatsford:
Notice I said my results should be 30d and 15up.. and that my home non wifi reads correctly.. only my phone shows weird backwards results it seems. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue with the new software or with the app itself. Also my laptop shows 30d 15u.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blacksuntzu:
If your home pc is wired to your router then of course it would tend to be higher. Average wireless speed is slower then wired speed.Try a 5GHz wireles N router and you should see a lot better speeds. Make sure the phone is set to use the 5GHz N protocol.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chvybeatsford:
OK.. so I don't think u guys are reading it correctly..I know wired is faster and I do have a dual n router. There is no way I should be showing 36up load on my service if one I pay for 15max and two my wired and wireless computer only show 15 also.

Phone shows -15down and 36 up ..

Paid servise - 30down 15 up.

Wired connection 30down 15up.

Notice the phone is showing double the upload as I pay for and double what wired shows. Either something is jacked on phone or the app went to crap. If u don't mind test yours and see if the reading is what seems to be backwards on yours.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jeffdaman:
Those are the fastest uploads I've ever seen! I wouldn't call that a problem I would call it a blessing:) Try uploading a video (know what size it is) to youtube app and time it. Then do the math and report. Wont be as fast as benchmark because the packets have error correction and such but if it's truly 30 up then you should see at least 20-25up to youtube.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chvybeatsford:
Once i get home ill try one. I think its a bug.. either app or the newest software for gs3.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:
Try uninstalling the speedtest app and then reinstall. That is odd I've never seen an issue like that before.

Have you tried going to speedtest.net website? You will need a third party browser (for example dolphin) and use a different user agent (PC). Curious to know if its the app itself.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] chvybeatsford:
Tried going to browser with ics browser + and when I do PC version it says I don't have correct player installed or what not. Will try a reinstall and see how it goes once I get home.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:
Try dolphin. And make sure you have flash installed.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
That's normal depending on your area and usage / time.. I. E try at midnight vs during the day.

No matter what i do it just boots into the recovery even if i flash another rom it goes back to cwm. I dont know what to do please help? I cant even shut the screen off its been in cwm for over 3 hours now \:

Just use recovery to restore your backup.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kieso:
This is about the 15th post I've seen this week about someone screwing up their n7. If there already isn't one there needs to be a step by step video for the correct way to unlock, root, and flash Roms. I suggest others read heavily before doing any flashing. Its bad enough the boot loader is already screwy.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leyvatron:
The toolkit does everything for you. All in one method and you're done.

I'm sure its his .img
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
I had this problem happen with my Xoom.

Boot into the bootloader from recovery. There should be an option to do so.

In the bootloader flash a different recovery.

Then reinstall your ROM. It should boot.

If that doesn't work I would suggest flashing the stock images in fastboot and starting over.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis93:
I can not boot into the bootloader my nexus 7 boots directly into cwm. I tryed wiping caches, wiping system, formating everything, restoring a nandroid, flashing another rom..... Nothing is working

When i get home. To my computeer im going to try using the toolkit hopefully it works
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theultimatev:
I had a similar problem on my og evo. Try seeing if you can flash the recovery from a computer while booted into cwm. Then it'll reboot into new recovery, you flash rom, and you stop sharding your pants
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Even choosing "reboot bootloader" in recovery?

If that doesn't work, connect to you your computer and using adb type the command

adb reboot bootloader

And to you sir I have read and watched other videos/tutorials whatever you may call them. I post on here as a last resort when "i dont know what to do". I cant understand people who post but dont really have nothing helpful to say about the topic. All im asking for is some help please and thank you
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis93:
I dont have a reboot bootloader option but when i go to reboot system it goes straight into cwm like i said.

Also fastboot/adb is not working. When i run a command it says "waiting for device" on my computer
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis93:
On a side note, i had tryed everything i formated the sd in cwm and now it appears on cwm as if theres "No files found" but on my computer everything i had previously is still there.

So there is a connection to the storage part of the device but not adb or fastboot
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Hmmm. You should have a working adb while booted into a custom recovery. Are your drivers installed correctly?

Also, the reason why you computer sees the files is because with mtp it caches the files.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis93:
So far i got adb to work finally! Happy im making some progress.

Now im able to boot into the bootloader so i can run fastboot commands. I currently have NO rom whatsoever installed so im waiting to flash the stock rom using the toolkit. Thank you for your help

Also when i booted into twrp it said i had 3% battery left lol so im just hoping it will work now.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nemesis93:
Well it was beyond repair for the moment being if i did NOT have access to adb, fastboot, nor the Bootloader i said that three times already.

But whatever i finally got adb to work and was able to fastboot flash a stock image. Thank you so much el daddy for your help i really appreciate it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
No problem. I'm glad you got it to work.

And thank you for flashing with fastboot and not a toolkit :)

Yeah i tryed at first because i was lazy and it didnt work so i did it through fastboot.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlanza1054:
Hopefully I don't have to start another thread.

I too think I bricked my Nexus 7.

I was having trouble and I accidentally cleared a file from the System UI app (its a system required app) which caused me to loose the 3 buttons on the bitten of the screen.

So I went to CWM to do a restore which said it failed.

After that it would not boot.

Its just stuck with the Google logo on the screen.

I held down the power up & down volume buttons and I get a screen that gives me that START button on the top right of the screen with the text in small size on the bottom left.

I can use the up and down volume to make the start button change to recovery mode or bootloader but activating them just goes to Google logo.

Can I recover or is it totally lost?

I also don't remember if I left the Nexus 7 in Debug mode which is usually required to perform custom Roms

Thanks

Rob
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comminus:

But I wanted to try the new Nexus Tools?

Can either of them work rather than using the harder method?

One more question: Since I have the Samsung ADB installed for my phone I'm told I don't need to bother installing Android ADB, that it's basically the same driver.

I found it hard to have 3 separate ADB drivers installed on one PC.

I have a Samsung SPH-D710, Asus TF300T and the Nexus 7.

Also, I'm not sure if I left the Nexus 7 in debug mode.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] comminus:
Android Debug Bridge (ADB) is provided by Google... it looks like you're referring to drivers, so make sure you have the correct one installed. Most windows users who run into issues are having problems with their drivers. Drivers are largely hardware-specific, so you need to make sure you're using the correct one for your device.

You will need the fastboot driver in addition to the adb driver.

USB debugging does not need to be enabled to use fastboot.

Please follow the guide. It will take you through everything you need to do to get your device working again. If you get stuck using the guide, post to that thread and we'll do what we can to assist you.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlanza1054:
So you don't think I should use WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit 1.5.3 to help perform this recovery? It just seems easier.

But if you will hand hold me, I'll do whatever method you recommend.

Of course, so far with his tool, I'm having trouble with the drivers already. I'm running on Windows 7 32 bit machine. I just realized, I needed to be in that 'START' screen, the bottom left is saying I'm in 'fastboot mode'. And I'm not in debug mode, his tool told me that already.

When I plug it in, I'm getting in Device Manager that it's an unknown Android device, even though I have the Samsung ADB driver installed. Which according to WugFresh is perfectly ok to use. But of course, the system is not seeing the device. I might have forgotten a few steps.

But let me take this private as not to clog up the forums. I will also delete my thread that I did end up starting. It's not necessary anymore since you are going to guide me.

I might have to take a 15 minute break now, I just woke up and I need to get the dog out fast before I start to apply this time to this recovery.

And of course, thank you very very much!

hello all wow thats all I can say. all these readings show no voice and data call over sprints cdma network on any phone. so I did some research call sprint yes I know crazy right they said yes on 4g, then I went into a sprint store again crazy right how come sprint does not seem to really know anything about their phones crazy right! anyway the store said no. So I tested it I made sure I was on spring 4g network. my wifi off I placed a call told the person to keep talking, I pressed on my internet icon on my phone and guess what it worked a voice and data call over the sprint network while on 4g. my question is why is this not toted by sprint like it is by att? and why does sprint techs do not have a strong definitive answer I mean come on this is a easy test! anyway just wanted to spread the word and see if others have same result. pulling my hair out grrrrrrr and guess what I'm bald!

test it out folks remember turn of wifi! make sure u r getting 4g.

my 4g phone sprint phone, samsung galaxy s2 4g.

That's nice.

There should be no Sprint users perusing this forum though, as this forum is for the GT-I9100, which is a GSM phone that doesn't even work on Sprint's network.

Thanks for the info but honestly this is quite old news and has been known since the Evo days. Use of Wimax is so limited is the main reason I can see why anyone not knowing but rest assure this is old news.
