This is probably a feature Not really a bug..

But on the lock screen .. Long tap the clock quickly.. you will see a big square highlight the unlock button Slide to unlock . This will take you to a STOP WATCH TYPE INTERFACE..

I Was hoping there would be a way in there to change the stupid bold hour number . That is gross to look at ..

Just to try it i Created a 3rd user..From the lock screen then you log into that user account to set it up. When it gets the point it ask for user Name SU Pops up asking to grant permission .. then give a message ..

SuperSU has granted superuser permission :/system/bin/id

tried 3 times .. if you let it set on that screen you will get Supersu isnt responding .. You click ok then it will allow you to continue setting up the account.

The second account set up fine.. Just thought i would try a 3rd and look at directory structure..

Can someone try and see if its just me with the issue. It finally created the account. with a reboot. but its unstable .Thanks Erica

Youtube is borked with stereo (a2dp) bluetooth headsets - sync issues, laggy, scratchy. They have clearly done some changes to bluetooth audio (you can hear the bluetooth headset mute/come alive when there is a moment or two of no sound).

Can't log into gmail with another account in chrome.

I used to log into another account in chrome that I haven't bothered linking. I went to gmail in chrome (not requesting desktop version) and I was already logged into my primary account. It's never done that before. I thought no big deal and signed out. Now gmail continually loops on the address constantly refreshing but the site never actually comes up.

And not a bug, but I'm annoyed Nexus 7 didn't get miracast. Can't imagine the reason for that. And the what's new page isn't clear that it is only nexus 4. http://www.android.com/whatsnew/

Yes it does say "Share what’s on your phone on the big screen." but the rest of the text and the page makes it seem like these are 4.2 features and not exclusive to N4. I'm hoping custom roms will enable miracast.

Also, not a bug but a feature lost, the camera no longer has the funny faces (big nose, small eyes etc). ya I know a dorky feature but I don't see why it was removed. I know the nexus 7 didn't have the camera enabled by default but we have the new camera app so I assume other devices lost those as well.

I'm getting an issue when tethering via Bluetooth. This morning it was working fine, the update came down while I was tethered to my phone, after the install I can pair to my phone but it won't connect.

I've tried deleting the pairing on both, re-pairing, rebooting... Anyone else having a problem? Anyone else doing Bluetooth tethering?

edit: never mind, I worked it out, I had to go in and select that I wanted to use the "Internet Access" profile :)

I notice all people that are having issues 90% are rooted modded or tweaked. So 4.2 have no issues at all at least if you are pure stock clean install.

I've tried to reproduce/verify every single issue reported in my device since yesterday 5am none present atm.

I'm having major Bluetooth quality issues while streaming in YouTube. In fact any application that uses data while trying to display video will cause bluetooth headphones to skip. Another user has confirmed this in my QA thread, but I am posting this here to get more opinions. I was 100% bone stock before going to 4.2.

Music seems to be just fine though... it is quite annoying.

Everyone try to keep APP bugs/issues into the appropriate thread, and leave this thread for ROM issues:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1989876

Now. That said, not sure if I'm blaming Google Music or the ROM for this, but when I have Google Music playing and I turn on the N7, the lock screen widgets flicker and sometimes if I scroll them, the device reboots. Not sure if it's the Google Music widget needing an update, or something else. It's not happening 100% but I saw it twice last night of about four times unlocking it with Google Music playing.

Reason I posted it in this thread (for the ROM) is because Google Music isn't the only time I've seen this, I saw it once yesterday too. The widgets were flickering and it just showed flickering of the widgets, couldn't even read them. Then when I went to login, I put in my pattern and it rebooted.

Something is wrong with the lock screen.

I did a wipe and install of factory image 4.2 (so following may not apply to an updated 4.1.2)

Installed TWRP recovery and rooted. TWRP backups now seem to live in /data/media/TWRP rather than on the 'internal sdcard' for want of a better phrase.

Then titanium backup can't see the backups to extract from them - unless you manually move them.

I think its because Google have done partition changes, to be honest the way they handle sdcard partitions seems a mess.

df command shows this mess.

[Nexus 7 General] sauceboy25:
It took me a while to get 4.2 to work, with root and CWM. Eventually I ended up just flashing the factory 4.2 image and then rooting with CWM. That seems to have worked.

However, I had real problems with TiBU - it would only see 20 or so apps out of 100+ backed up in the repository. Evidently this has something to do with the revised file structure but still. Ended up fixing it by flashing an update.zip that I had made with TiBU before the ROM flash that had all the apps. That appears to have worked well and retained all the game data files.

Otherwise, no complaints so far.

Good luck.
[Nexus 7 General] Aquagene:
I've noticed my Nexus 7 randomly shutting off the screen, or going to sleep, despite a 2 min sleep timer, since 4.2. I at first thought it was my case, but after removing it, the problem persisted. It doesn't always do it, either. I had it working fine earlier, but oddly enough, this only happened in bed last night when trying to read. I tested it with a few apps and the problem appeared in all of them, even stock gapps. Pretty frustrating.
[Nexus 7 General] Faithmusic:
too many bugs?

Last night I received the 4.2 update and it's not happening.

I find too many bugs. The major one is being knocked offline a lot. I usually use Firefox but it's not running right.

It's not smooth at all. Right now I had to switch to Chrome to write this post. I hope they come out with some fixes real soon. Sorry for complaining.

[Nexus 7 General] soccerwuedo5:
I did a full restore to Nexus Factory Images back to 4.1.2 before manually flashing the OTA file to 4.2.

Maybe not bugs, but these are my observations:

The lock screen seems clunky because it shows the off-screen "add widget" tile outline for 1 second then fades away into a normal lock screen. I would love an option to eliminate all widgets in settings so this 1 second delay doesn't happen.

Multi-user switching is incredibly slow. Also, SuperSU popped up during setting up my 2nd account and had to be force closed ("Not responding...") before I could continue setup.

Toggles. They should really be toggles.

Other than that, loving the new update. The animations in and out of recent apps are slick and I love the IDEA of quick settings and multi-user, just not the current implementation.
[Nexus 7 General] Shantara123:
The screen of my Nexus 7 turns itself on every 20 or 30 minutes after update to 4.2. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I got rid of semitransparent widget border on the left part of the lockscreen by running this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wordpress.chislonchow.deviceadminkeyguard
[Nexus 7 General] phiphiJR:
Google Play Music controls no longer show up on lockscreen. They are still there in the notification in the drop down. I wonder if the lockscreen widgets block this? It's weird because the very first time I locked the screen while playing music, the controls showed, but never again after that.

Just a little annoying really, doesn't seem to be a legitimate functional reason to get rid of the lockscreen controls.

[Nexus 7 General] ciomih:
Yep ... I had same problem. It seems that other file managers see the 4 local drives as well on my Galaxy Nexus. It looks like the file system has been changed in android 4.2 due to the multi-user support.

"Technically, the multi-user device works is that each user has its own virtual SD card (under / mnt / sdcard) and probably gets its own user directory – the latter can be tracked to a lack of documentation only gerooteten device. The user directories are in / mnt / shell / emulated, whereupon from a PC has USB debugging access. The “traditional” mount point for the user memory area (/ mnt / sdcard, / sdcard, / storage/sdcard0) are then bent on / storage / emulated / legacy, and there the link is to the actual user space, ie / mnt / shell / emulated / n, where n is a number assigned to the user"
