Ok so here is a lil mockup. For probably 95 percent of accessories its good enough. I just took a pair of calipers to mine and here we have it.

solidworks: http://www.mediafire.com/?b8mjj6k9fj9cjzo "NO LONGER AVAILABLE"

IGS file: http://www.mediafire.com/?r8cernk6dbhgdqs "NO LONGER AVAILABLE"

I'm putting toether a dock right now :)

my calipers are accurate to probably .001" add a few more thousandths for human error lol. I'd say you'd be pretty safe putting your tolerances to .003. My only part i'm not as accurate on is the radius's seeing as i don't have the tools to more accurately measure it. But for a dock they aren't that important. IF anyone has more accurate info for them i'd love to update the model!

UPDATE! 11/10/2012

-went ahead and added the micro usb and 3.5mm holes.

-fixed the lower bezel to more accurately mirror actual bezel.

-added edrawing file

*** Nexus Docks***

With the arrival of 4.2 from what the forums say, the new kernal now supports the pogo pins on bottom. So i threw together a lil simplistic rough of a dock im thinking of getting printed out. The second pitcure shows the pogo "channel" i modeled in, so that i can wire them in once they come from china :) I would love your feedback (touchups rounding edges and whatnot havn't been done yet, but any big design flaws or suggestions would be great)
[Nexus 7 General] h4x0rj3ff:
what brand of calipers are you using and are they digital or dial? just curious.
[Nexus 7 General] jonnyg1097:
Just out of curiosity what material were you going to be making your dock out of? I was debating with myself on what materials I should use that are easy to manipulate since I do not have access to the likes of wood and/or metals to mould it to the shape I want.
[Nexus 7 General] v8dave:
Your model is pretty good but I spotted an error with it.

On your model, the lower part of the bezel is drafted outwards but on my Nexus 7, the lower part is drafted inwards.

If you could add the USB port and 3.5mm socket it would also be even better. :o)

Dave...

PS.. I used the IGS file.

Lol, just skimming the thread title, I expected something with a maple leaf on it.
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Ya I work developing orthopedic implants and at my office we have all sorts of fancy stuff, micrometers, optical comparitors, CMC machines. But thats there, and i am enjoying my weekend. But I bought an average 12" pair of calipers. Ya i actually colaberated a bit with one of my buddies on this to throw together a fast mockup, and the lower bezel was his, easy fix though. And ya i know i'm missing the ports. Two reasons they are there:

1. They would be next to no use trying to get their relative positioning accurate with a pair of calipers, thats a job for better tools i'll have to do later.

2. For my purposes of building a desktop dock, i didn't need anything but the outermost measurements, but once people work out the pogo pins i plan on wiring that into it as well :)

Also I was just going to put it through a 3d printer we have a the university i go to, and then finish it off with some fine sanding and high gloss black or something. I'll be sure to post the drafts i go through. Any and all constructive critism would be much appreciated, fresh eyes are always apppreciated.

Also I find CAD mockups to be in extremely short supply. I'd love for this to become a thread with some colaboration going on. If you make any improvements to my model, UPLOAD IT!!! Or just any ol thing pertaining to our beautiful device :)
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:

[Nexus 7 General] ronaldeang:
this is awesome...thanks for this! i'm trying to build a car mount and this will def help. it looks like with 4.2 we can now charge via pogo pins. any chance you're gonna update this with the pins modeled?

thanks,

ron
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Ya I was just reading that thread and actually went ahead and bought a 10 pack of those pogo pins from eBay. This is exciting news if we Can get a functional slick dock in the works before Asus releases theirs. Ya ill model in the pogo holes in tomorrow for sure. I myself am working on a dock obviously and once I get it printed out on the 3d printer ill be able to make the fine tunes to things like the pogo pins and other holes that are all the toughest parts to model accurately (as far as true position is conacerned)

Again for all you other drafters post your stuff up, let's get the collaborating going!
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
There ya are, pogo pins included

Open Format?

Is it possible to get those files in an open format (i.e. which can be imported into blender)?

PS: Great work
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
I know only a small bit of blender, you mean like. Obj or. Stl? I tried using 3d scan to export as those formats and it was giving me grief, do you know of an easier way I'd be happy to.
[Nexus 7 General] atheist93:
I found this guide via google: wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.4/Tutorials/Render/Import/SolidWorks

I run Linux and am therefor not able to try it via solidworks myself...

what programm did you use to create those modells ?
[Nexus 7 General] PhoenixIce22:
NICE!

I like this design... I'd be interested in getting one printing and wiring in the audio/power to it! :D

If you're looking to add something, maybe adding an image of our favorite robot into the back? ;)
[Nexus 7 General] chippd:
Thanks!

Hey, this is perfect, only registering now as I want to be involved in this! Wanted a 3D model of the nexus for rendering and also for modelling up some accessories. very interested in some dock options. Will be keeping a close eye on this and will upload and share any additions/modifications I make that I feel may be worthwhile.

Thanks! :)
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Ha thanks guys, ya I'm excited to see what you do with it. I had some holdups with the 3d printer, but have access always to a water jet, so i made a version of my dock that really anyone can make. Its made of .25 and .118" acrylic. Really just 6 2d pieces cut out and put together. I modeled in the nexus logo that i'm going to try and cut out of colored acrylic and fit it inlay style, lit possibly. Here's a pic i'll upload the files for anyone who wants to just print them out 1:1 scale and use them as cutting jigs (ya waterjet is a lot faster and accurate, but with a steady hand this could be done with just a simple cutting too to eh.)

Also the pogo pins i bought off ebay are modeled into it now too now, I'll have a finished product be weeks end to show off :)
[Nexus 7 General] TheAtheistReverend:
This is really cool. Thanks for sharing. I wish I had the time and brain power to contribute. I'm surprised no one else has...

Looking forward to the resul;ts you post!
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
So this is draft 1, I needed something fast while i work out the tolerances :)

Ta Da, works great, I'll plug in the audio and power soon. I purposely designed the front to barely reach over its very closely calculated tolerances and that puppy aint coming out accidently
[Nexus 7 General] ericerk:
How much will you be charging for these?

Will these actually charge?
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Lol i hadn't planned on putting them into production. It cost me about 4 bucks in acrylic is all. I used a waterjet to cut it out, and waterjet + acrylic really doesn't create a good finish. If anyone has a lasercutter service, that would REALLY make this nice. Ya I have the pogos, from what i understand you supply a 5v powersupply and slap a female 3.5mm on it, once dock mode is triggered the audio defaults out the pogo pin.

As far as gettin them out in the world, i dabbled with the idea, but I'd have to try and find a better method of manufacturing (ie lasercutting service). I think it could be done for half what asus plans on charging. Mobile accessorie prices are SOOO inflated.

But ya would love to find an affordable laser guy, i could only find pololu, i reuested a uote waiting to hear back.
[Nexus 7 General] kasemodz:
Great work btw, is it possible to export the file in a stl file or something? I'm using Autodesk 123D and I cannot import any of the attached files. Maybe you might know the solution. Thanks again for your help!
[Nexus 7 General] r00t4rd3d:

[Nexus 7 General] manderson8898:
I am only getting the tablet in the model. Do you have a different format? DWG, DXF, or DGN? Or the IGES with just the stand no tablet part?

thanks,

[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Are you wanting to print it out, I also made an acrylic version that i cut out with a waterjet, very happy with the final product.
[Nexus 7 General] kasemodz:
I'm having a hard time making a support structure. I'm trying to 3d print that item with ABS plastic. I'm trying to utilize the pogo pins in my car dock but somehow the pins locations on the support structure are always off by 1 or 2mm in either x and/or y direction. It will be great if I had a nexus 7 cad model, that way I can create a support structure that revolves around the the nexus 7 so that the pogo pins line up.

I will appreciate it if you can upload .stl or better yet any type of autocad file. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 General] r00t4rd3d:
A design of the stand I am going to cut.
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Very Nice what are you cutting it out with? And is this for a car?
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Ya i'll try and get a .stl up
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
There ya are mate, Good Luck. I've tested the tolerances on the major dimensions of the tablet itself with my little dock, and they are very good. HOWEVER i've yet had the chance to test the pogo pins, I'm fairly confident in them, but like i said without more equipement than my mitutoyo calipers, i just have to go through actual prototypes of the docks and make adjustments to the model according to the results i get. So if you do print out a dock please give me feedback on how well it interacts with the dock.
[Nexus 7 General] r00t4rd3d:
CNC Router and its just for a desk.

I converted your model to DXF if it is useful to anyone.
[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
Hey much thanks. Are you integrating the pogo pins? Also Make sure to post your actual final product!
[Nexus 7 General] Burlyirishdude:

[Nexus 7 General] Sveke:
I'll take one when your done! Let me know the price.

[Nexus 7 General] bossman137:
I've been exploring into some real time manufacturing methods like injection molding and cnc out of stock. I think I really like this first one i made though. I'd probably use matte abs instead of shiny acrylic. But I don't think nexus and for that matter majority of android OEM accessories are ever going to get on the ball and release the good stuff with their devices. My thinking is have docks available within a week of the device coming out, fit well, simple designs, LOW PRICE. I mean common 60$ for the nexus 7 dock that finally came out, they would be making a good profit selling it for 30$, the other 30$ is purely demand and anticipation. Also putting together nexus 4 model and docking system.
[Nexus 7 General] Triskite:
I saw that docks were selling out on Saturday and decided to buy a Nexus 7 & make a dock for it. Here's my first stab - it's kind of funky looking because it has a trick up its sleeve (other piece not printed yet so I can't show you). lmk if you want to collaborate on things - I have 3x 3d printers next to me

(oh, and i plan on integrating some cables - reason for the base to be so long/wide)
[Nexus 7 General] defsquad:
Not sure if this thread is still relevant since this is for the old model nexus 7 (which I still have and am modeling stuff for), as you mentioned, your radii are presumably off, as I'm only using Tinkercad currently, I can't edit your provided files, however I'll say that the radii I figured up with my calipers and rough measurements is 7.33 floored. Wanted to throw that out there in case anyone else runs into issues with their models because of this..

I have the deal of a life time phone geeks!!!​

$349.99 will get you a dual core phone that will NEVER receive any updates of any kind. Even if a security flaw is found that allows for the theft of all your data....NO UPDATE FOR YOU. Even if every other manufacturer (except Micromax) has updated their Tegra2 phones.... NO UPDATE FOR YOU. And if you are stupid enough to buy now, we will throw in a car dock for FREE! So what do you say!

"So how stupid do you think I am?"

For $599.99 will get you can get yet another dual core phone that will NEVER receive any updates of any kind. And if you are stupid enough to buy now, we will even charge you the original price of $59.99 for that cardock!

As of this post the Electrify and Photon are still being sold by Motorola as current phones even though they have abandoned both phones. Nowhere in the item description is it stated that the phones are no longer supported by Motorola.

It will get even funnier if you pass it along to your State Attorney General's Office, FTC and Sen. Al Franken. Selling them as current devices even though they are discontinued/EOL'd by the carriers and unsupported with regards to security updates is shady at best.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Lightsword1942:
The new head of Motorola talks about earning our trust and but gives us nothing but meaningless PR about how Motorola is changing. Someone needs to sue them if at all possible. Maybe we could sue for the source to the atrix leak, I know someone managed to threaten HP into releasing source when they accidentally left android on a few touchpads. Motorola might have to state that it was an actual hack that caused the leak, if it was an employee(most likely) then they might be legally required to provide source code. I could be way off though, the GPL is somewhat murky when it comes to this.

Your post would have been spot on if BestBuy charged double the original list price and required a four year contract. That's ok. I don't get sarcasm either most of the time.

That's part of the point I was trying to make. You would have no idea that these phones are pretty much abandoned unless you already knew about all the BS moto pulled. Nobody from moto is even responding to this so I contacted cnet again and pretty much got a "you're kidding, right". Except for the fanboys, and those that don't do their research, I think the industry/comsumers has pretty much written Moto off at this point.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] rbarkus:
Back in Froyo, I used the option under "Bluetooth Settings," "Device Name" to change the the default name to "RB-SGH." (That was because we have a pair of these and I wanted to be able to see which one was connected to our BT enabled house phones.)

The problem is whenever the phone is powered on, the device name reverts to the default of "SGH-T959V." Then none of the BT devices paired to it will connect. If I turn BT off and back on again -- the name changes to "RB-SGH." Then all paired devices are happy again.

I used a build prop editor could see no place where the new name is stored. I rooted the phone and flashed a custom ROM -- no difference.

How can I get rid of the new name or have the same name show up everytime?

UPDATE:

I figured out that the problem isn't the name. On power up with BT on, the phone doesn't recognize any of its paired BT devices. If BT is turned off and back on, it displays the paired devices and all is well. It's annoying but manageable. Any thoughts on a fix?

Hello XDA Community,

some time ago i downloaded 2 archives from here (can't find the thread anymore) to update my Omnia7 manually to NoDo cause i couldn't wait for the official way. 2 weeks ago I just updated my phone via Zune but i think the bootloader/firmware isn't updated and/or corrupted.

I have a strange issue that when i reboot or turn my phone on the complete screen goes red. The system runs fine in the background and also the touchscreen is responsive. When i press the power button to shut the phone down and swipe down the phone turns off. Just as it would normally do but the complete screen is red. Also when i turn off the display the screen goes red for some milliseconds. I have this strange problem since i updated manually.

So what is the latest Firmware/Bootloader for the Omnia 7 and how do i get it on my phone?

My Omnia 7 is unbranded.
[Omnia 7 General] MTom:
"Red screen"

installed in the WPH tweaks?

or tweak program? turn off 32-bit Color
[Omnia 7 General] e.v.o:
Since i updated my phone via Zune the "Jailbreak" via Chevron and InterOpUnlock via WindowBreak are gone. But i do have a developer account (couldn't resist to buy it for only $8). So maybe there's a solution to that problem?

But the question is: Whats the latest and greatest version for a unbranded Omnia 7? I want my phone completly back to stock settings but maxed out in case of the latest firmware/bootloader.

I really hope someone here on XDA could help me! :)

Hi i need help with this as i had ARHD 6.7.2 earlier with Sebastien kernal, but i never had a problem, when they battery when down to 15% the warning would come up. Now the phone just shuts down randomly when the battery is low, it may be because of an error in battery reporting the phone would shutdown at around 25%. I applied the battery fix that was recommened but i still dont have any luck, Any ideas is is the kernal?

When i switched from 6.7.2 to 6.8.0 i did a full wipe, so it was a fresh installation
[Windows 8 General] Chuckleb0ne:
Alright, so i have been intrigued through commcercials and all about how Windows 8 works. What i want to know is, is it worth upgrading to windows pro 8 without a touchscreen PC?

I have a home built PC (desktop) that is blazing fast, and i also have a 31 inch monitor that supports 1080p. Is paying $40.00 worth getting the new version of windows? Or should i just stay with windows 7.

Please feel free to explain why when you answer, thanks!
[Windows 8 General] BloatedDuck404:
Do it. Use the desktop until you get used to metro or whatever its called. But once used to it its amazing. I was immediately used to W8 day one.
[Windows 8 General] ChrisDDD:
It's worth the $40 upgrades are going for. On the desktop side, it's very fast and clean, I'm surprised at how much I like the new Window trim... No superfluous gloss and transparency, all business. There are some nice additions like drive encryption, the new backup tool (the old one is still there for those who prefer it, which I personally do), the new task manager and file copy UIs, and IE 10 is surprisingly fast stable and, from what I've read, secure.

On the Metro side... It's interesting, and I see the utility of it for tablets, but between my work, which requires heavy multitasking between applications, and just the way I've come to use my computer, again, multitasking, Metro's full screen nature relegates it to little more than a curiosity. I have dual quad core xeons, and two large monitors, so having such strict limitations on how many apps I can have on screen is a bit of a non-starter for me. That and full screen apps designed for a 10 inch screen running on a 30 inch, 2560x1600 res monitor border on absurd. I would use Metro a lot more, and I think it would be far more attractive, both in utility and aesthetically, if it adapted to make optimal use of the typical screen real estate available on desktops. Simply scaling apps up, resulting in 60, 80 and sometimes even higher point size type is anything but optimal.

Personally, after adding the $5 Start8 app to get my familiar start menu back, I've found 8 to be a nice upgrade from 7. I'd have never spent the normal $130 on it, but again, for the current $40, I think it's worth it. Hopefully Microsoft will improve Metro's ability to use and adapt to available system resources before Windows 9. I want to like it, but in its current form, on a desktop, it's, as I said, a bit of a curiosity.

Just my .02
[Windows 8 General] icomrade:
I actually enjoy windows 8 when the metro UI is used as a supplement to the regular explorer. I.e. install start 8 or classic shell and boot straight to desktop, I use the metro UI plenty, but do not use it primarily. I got a 15 dollar pro key and free media center key, which makes it a pretty good value.

Overall the interface is a lot more pleasant than win 7, it's something different, and it's refreshing. I really don't miss Aero at all, most programs that work with win 7 work well with win 8, except some AV software. No I do not have a touch input device.

[Windows 8 General] Chuckleb0ne:
Thanks for the great input guys! Now with finding files and folders and such is it all still there? Is there instructions on how to use windows 8?
[Windows 8 General] JihadSquad:
It's not immediately obvious but in the start screen you can start typing and it will search. Also there is a search button on the charms bar but that is pretty pointless unless you want to search within an app like iHeartRadio for example.
[Windows 8 General] hazard99:
Replying from so bare with me.

I work in a retail environment and I had to teach older adults about windows 8. I've learned that I'm not very fond of 8 on touch devices.

Truth is I've just gotten use to my mouse with windows 8.

Just remember the 4 corners get you around. Windows key gets you back to the launcher and windows+d gets you to classic mode .

I didn't explain it very elegantly but its pretty simple
