With nova launcher broken and firefox crashing, this is the most disruptive .release I have ever had.

Most other things are working fine, but the two things I was using everyday are not working.

Now I "patiently" wait for updates.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
I don't know about the rest of you, but my case has been awfully loose since the 4.2 update. It used to fit really snug, and then right after the OTA update, it's been sliding off every day. I emailed the manufacturer but haven't heard back yet. I'm going to demand a refund. I understand 4.2 is supposed to have more buttery smooth goodness, but they shouldn't make it so slippery.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
A lot of people have been complaining that their case fits looser since the 4.2 update.

I understand that dropping back to 4.1.2 will slightly thicken the middle and make it fit better.

Just add this to all the rest of the specious complaints.

Kindle?

When I finally got updates to connect with the server, the Amazon Kindle app (from Google Play Store) updated. As soon as it did, the fonts on most of my Kindle Books blew up to monster size and I cannot get them any smaller than extra large. Also, multi-touch in Kindle is now very hesitant to respond.

This is a big deal to me because I use my Nexus 7 for reading more than any other single activity.

Anybody else having this problem and/or know how to get the fonts back to the way they used to be?

[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:
Thanks for the Dropbox replies.

I realised that it was highly unlikely that there was a wide ranging problem with Dropbox or I'd have heard about it when I searched on it. Possibly I have another app the it doesnt like or maybe the combination of a new 3g nexus, redownloading Dropbox (from the Google Play Store) that had previously worked on my old nexus (16gb) doesnt work. But I can think of no sensible reason why that would be the case. I had thought it was the 3g aspect as it seems to be unable to connect online.

I'll look into it further and if I figure out whats up I will shout.

TV Catchup works on 4.2,did you put flash back on?

I dont have flash on and never have.TVcatchup worked on 4.1.2 but now after a clean install of 4.2 the market says my device is not compatable with this app.

I did have them sideloaded from a backup i had but my nexus was just rebooting randomly, since i have took them off all is well.

Works for me.

HOWEVER, I just installed that Beautiful Clock widgets app (so I could replace that god awful stock clock on my lock screen) and noticed that it is NOT able to determine my location. Every other app I've tested has no issue, but it seems to be clueless. It doesn't even try to use the GPS, and it should be able to get a somewhat accurate idea from my wifi or 3G information. Maybe it's just an issue with the 3G devices?

Have you resolve your issue with Kaspersky?

[Nexus 7 General] kangy:
I don't think you need Volume+ on the 4.2. At least for the one day I was running it the low volume "issue" seemed to have been fixed. At about 60% volume it would pop up a hearing warning at elevated volume levels (not sure of the exact text) but it was significantly louder than 4.1.2. Volume+ actually made the volume lower, try disabling Volume+ and crank up the volume in movies/music/whatever and see how you like it.

Here's an interesting app that no longer works: Google Maps Navigation. It sits and spins on "waiting for location."

Google maps will also not pay attention to the GPS coordinates if the network based location disagrees with GPS. I don't know if that is new though...

I'm finding that the "features" like this and the fully-broken apps outweigh any benefits that this update brought.

Surely if Google are going to implement a new filesystem structure or anything that may break apps then they should release a beta 4.2 first which is only available via download so none techies wont bother to install it so not OTA. This lets devs update their apps in advance. That would be most sensible and would reduce a lot if complaints.

It also lets more technical people feed back design ideas before it's rolled out to millions of people.

That would be the sensible approach, unfortunately we play by google's development rules now and that's not how they roll, They seem to be a lot more casual than your traditional Software Company .....Anyway You don't really want google to get back on their beta program tho.... wasn't Gmail beta for about 5 years :laugh:

I think also with a lot of things now-a-days the early end users are the testers because they can be updated so easily after it left the factory and there plenty of people who like to have the blackest cat in the neighbourhood so why pay testers?. I suppose that's life on the consumer device bleeding edge... Just think, A normal mobile device from a carrier won't see this update til the middle of next year if ever.

Volume+ also stopped working, it actually now makes the sound softer when enabled.

The upside is the low volume issue on 4.2 seems to be fixed, when you start cranking it up in a movie it actually has a popup warning you about the higher volume so it appears Google heard the moaning about the volume. Downside is I'm out $2 for Volume+ and I only used it for one movie.
