Looks like my Nexus 7 I got at the Google I/O conference. The ones with the white backs they gave out also have black trims.

I think its funny the the pic they show on the N7 box shows one with a black trim not silver. Haha
[Nexus 7 General] Wilks3y:
Im tempted to try this, but first I want to do what another user posted and colour the X on the back in the Nexus Colours.

He used tape and it looked awesome.

Could be a nice little project its just buying a whole roll of coloured tape (For each colour = 4!) for a little strip is pointsless haha :/

[Nexus 7 General] ClintvL:
Looks very nice :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] Aleemz:
I agree. The trim should have been black from the start, and aluminium or stainless steel painted black would have been great!

I wonder, can the silver trim be separated from the body? This would make changing it to black much easier.
[Nexus 7 General] dilldoe:
it's possible, but the silver trim is glued to the glass screen. so very difficult
[Nexus 7 General] kkl0wn:
Nice! I agree that the trim should have been blacked out from the beginning. Curious to see the final product. I've been thinking about getting a complete vinyl cover and would definitely want the trim black.
[Nexus 7 General] drpepe:
Black skin = no silver trim visible.

(Not that I ever noticed it anyway)
[Nexus 7 General] mr_tris:
They probably chose to put black trim on the new models so it won't be so hard to notice the raised screen issue. :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] lukems:
All credit to the OP, looks well done.

I quite like the silver trim at the moment and I haven't managed to scratch it yet, so ill leave mine as is. It does look bad ass though!

I bought and installed a Zagg InvisibleShield on my N7. I was happy that it didn't degrade the sensitivity at all and I can rest a little easier knowing that the screen is protected a little more.

I know the screen is Corning, but it's still not officially Gorilla Glass.

I'm interested in buying a case, but haven't found anything decent yet.

Always use a case but never a screen protector. Its a capacitive screen, putting something in the way reduces contact. I'd rather have scratches than a screen protector.

Naked so far. But a screen protector and tpu case on order. I plan on only using the case out of the house, so I can use a dock. Not too concerned with resale value as I'll probably keep it or hand it down to one of my kids when I upgrade.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] irishrally:
A screen protector or case has never lasted more than a few days on any mobile device I have owned, but some how I ended up loving the official Asus case and have left on a clear screen protector. I liked my N7 just a little bit more after wrapping it in the Asus case, and I like to be able to throw it around and pack it up without worrying about it. Strange, but utility driven shift.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] AirBoss24K:
Once I get my Nexus 7, I feel like that's the route I'm going to take. I have a matte protector on my GNex and a plastic case (which I'm considering some nicer case alternatives). Not sure about the magnet cover, but I think I've seen those before and they work fairly well. Are they pricey at all? Like 20-30 I'm guessing.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Saturny:
Both.

SGP screen protector with polka-dot pouch for me.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Devhux:
No screen protector (though I'm considering putting a Ghost Armor protector on it). For the case, I'm mostly just using the pouch that came with an old Sony Reader Touch Edition (PRS-600) eReader. The Nexus fits almost perfectly (a small bit sticks out at the top, but not much).

Dark blue Supercase for me. Not huge on how the stand works, but protects it.

Never use screen protectors as I can never get them on right and if I come close it seems to mess with the sensitivity of the touch.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] PsychoMcSatan:
I've got an 8 and a 4 year old. In my case, the protection came on a bit late.

Within a day of getting my N7, one of the kids left it face down and sure enough there were a bunch of faint scratches, but one big deep one that really sparkles on white backgrounds. I've got an old Ipod that's scratched to hell, but there's something about the N7 screen that really brings out that weird sparkly effect, like the panel is really close to the glass or something.

Anyway,read that XO Skins were good at covering up scratches so ordered and just put it on a couple days ago. Really amazing that I have to struggle to find where that scratch was. Though the slight gumminess of the screen is a turn-off, I think it's getting better.

Also have one of the foldy cases from eBay with the magnet for further kid protection.

Haven't bought anything so far, but I'm going to get a case that ensures its safety in my bag or coat pocket. I really don't see why someone would want to have an ugly filthy cheap cellofoamy piece of plastic over the area he uses. Never used one on any device, and never managed to get scratches on the screen side.

As long as its protected during travel, it's fine.

when i bought n7,2\3 week ago,i also bought a screen protector.last week i also bought a case+capacitative pen+another screen protector all in one at 12 euro via ebay.so far so good,also if i use n7 at home for most of the time and it's only a plus,i don't 100% need it,i think it's needed due to the screen not so resistent and the non-gorilla glass.

Also, I smashed my N7 last night. I remember it was fine when I got out of the car for fuel, but when I got home the screen was cracked and unresponsive. I don't remember it hitting anything, and the music never stopped or skipped. At least my insurance will pay for the new one.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] Melarsa:
I have a amFilm screen protector.

Then, while the official ASUS travel case was on backorder, I picked up a KaysCase S-Line TPU case just to have something protecting it.

Then the ASUS case when it came back in stock, but even though I modded the front flap with a magnet, I was still missing a stand option and kept looking for a better quality case with more features. It was good enough until a higher quality case came out that wasn't suffering from weak/too strong magnet issues and weird flap folding issues like the Poetic cases, and had a little more substance than the $5-10 cheap cookie-cutter Chinese cases.

But now the Speck FitFolio is out, and I'm totally satisfied with it. Now to offload my TPU case, and maybe the ASUS as well.

I always go with screen protector + case, even though I'm very careful with my gadgets and have rarely had a drop that even lead to scratches. Better safe than sorry. My gadgets live forever in pristeen condition, which is just the way I like it. Plus now that every gadget is fighting to be the thinnest and lightest, I find it easier to hold phones and tablets when they've got a little more weight to them and something to hold onto besides plain plastic or metal. It's worth it to me to protect my gadgets. The Nexus has been the cheapest gadget I've bought in a while, so even though the cost of accessories seems disproportionately high, I have the mindset of "I only spent X on the tablet itself, why not spend an extra $10 on a nicer case? It's still far cheaper than my GNex with a cheapy case was!"
[Nexus 7 Accessories] irishrally:
Asus. No idea why everyone is dodging the official case.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] stretched:
Yup XO Skins and I have a few different cases.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Melarsa:
I like the official case, it just would have been a lot better with...any features at all. As it is I added a magnet to the flap so it would work as a smart case, but even then I wish there was a way to secure the flap closed (aside from using a rubber band) and there's no stand option, which a lot of people look for in a case.

Now, if you're looking for a basic TPU-style case with a flap and no frills, then it's perfectly suitable, as long as you're willing to pay $20 for it.

I actually really like the texture of it much better than silicone/TPU cases, and think the dotted finish was very neat. Because it was so pliable it was really easy to flip the flap back out of the way, and it added nearly no thickness to the tablet, which is great. I just wish it came with a smart wake magnet built in and a way to secure the flap, at least. For a case, it's not very protective. One drop and the flap would fly open and who knows what would happen to the screen.

Recently I came across Gaetawoo's JB 4.1 Dark Holo MMS App (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1745830) and it is working perfectly & looks great on my HTC One XL.

Realizing how awesome this was, I PM'd Gaetawoo and asked him if he might have any interest in doing the same thing to the Email app so that the two most used applications on my phone would be themed similarly. Gaetawoo replied and said that he is using Kaiten and not stock app for email so it didn't really interest him. However, he did give me some links on where he learned to theme the MMS app. Unfortunately, I do not have access to a standard computer to the work on this so I figured I would put out a request and offer a small bounty if someone wanted to take this project on. Let me know if you think you might want to help out...I imagine a lot of people on JB Rom's would love to have this option for their devices!

So I've tried searching but don't see anything relating to my question. If it's there I missed it and apologize.

My situation is this: I was running stock rooted 1.40 on my NT16 for the longest time but decided I wanted to try out the latest and greatest. I am not a noob when it comes to ROMs, but I am when it comes to Cyanoboot. I flashed CM10 and cyanoboot. then using Goomanager got the latest TWRP.

I'm not a big fan of TWRP personally, so i flashed CWM 6.0.13 and have been very happy. CM10 was nice and I liked the look and feel but it just wasn't stable enough to use as a daily so I decided to go to CM9 (0.05.3). I made a backup in CWM, wiped cache, factory reset and then flashed CM9. Rebooted and it loaded up just fine. Runs like a champ. the problem is that when I boot or reboot, I have the old cyanoboot installed. If I hold the n button to go to the menu and choose to boot EMMC recovery, it goes to the newer cyanoboot where I have to hold n again, to select boot EMMC recovery.

Now, like I said, everything seems to be working fine. I went in that way and made another backup in CWM and that finished successfully but how do I make it so there is only one cyanoboot now? I did not flash the recovery that is in the CM9 thread so is that my problem? If so, I will go ahead and flash it, but I wanted to ask before doing that. I would hate to have a third cyanoboot or worse, brick/really screw it up.

Again, I did try searching for this, but didn't find anything. If there is, please point me in the right direction and I will go from there.

Thanks!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shawner47:
Update... Decided to go back to CM10 and try out the latest from crmhoffmann (0.05.3). Restored my CM10 backup and flashed the new over top. Reboot and now the old version of Cyanoboot is gone leaving only the new one again.

I still don't know how to remove the first (older version) but I guess I can forget about it since the newer CM10 seems to be working much better.
