Has anyone sent there Nexus 7 back to ASUS because of distorted speakers or screen flicker? My Nexus 7 has both and I was wondering does that meet the warranty requirement? Also how long did it take ASUS to send you your new Nexus 7? I have a Nexus 7 8GB and I purchased it the first week it was released. Thanks in advance.

these files what you looking for are usual files which can be found in almost every stock rom .zip, if you need a link and guide , here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1424997

maybe you can better describe what is your problem for ex. on which rom you were been, which kernel, which rom you flashed etc, how you manage to do brick, and what kind of brick etc...

through that I am sure that somebody will be able to offer you a better information

I've formatted it to NTSF before putting files on it. It still doesn't read. I tried it on my PC and it works fine.

Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cehf:
you want it to be formatted as exFAT. as far as i know, our phone does not support ntfs.

Newbie question lol I have cwm and I want to create NANDROID backup to stock with root.... No idea how can somebody help me? :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CamFlawless:
Reboot into CWM recovery. Once there, go to backup and restore. In there you should see an option to create a backup. Select it and allow your device time to back itself up. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] WattB006:
You need to boot into recovery and then select the option to backup and CWM will make a Nandroid backup.

Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery by holding down the Volume Up, Home, and Power buttons until your phone’s screen turns on. Use the Volume Up and Down buttons to navigate between the options and the Home button to select an option.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bsam55:
Suggestion

If you have an SD card mounted, I would recommend you choose the option to backup to external SD card. This saves loading up internal memory and when stored on external SD card, your Nandroid backup is protected from wipes/crashes/resets (except for purposefully wiping or formating SD card.)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] i386W7:
Is it faster to back up on internal rather than external sdcard?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] derf8966:
I think in CWM recovery it can only make a back up to the external SD card.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] i386W7:
No.. I updated cwn and I have an option for external or internal. Plus, there are those that do not have an external sd
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
I had a Sony Xperia S (abbr. XS) before I bought a Nexus 4 (abbr. N4). And luckily I wasn't stuck in limbo lvl 3 for too long and got my phone on Monday morning.

Let's talk about the reported N4 issues here:

1. Buzz from earphone speaker

People reported the same for XS. And then we found out it's because of the noise-cancelling microphone. For my N4 I can't hear this mysterious buzz, and I believe my ears are much better than the average.

2. "Unreasonably" hot device

Definitely warmer than XS. But then XS is all plastic and N4 is mostly glass. Glass is a better heat conductor than plastic so this means N4 dissipates heat better than XS.

3. Poor battery performance

MUCH MUCH BETTER battery than XS. Now I can go through the day with 30~40% left. With XS, it would've been 10%.

4. poor touchscreen sensitivity

Touchscreen is definitely more sensitive than XS. And I feel it behaves differently from XS.

5. Feedback when plugged in.

Never know this so cannot comment.

Now my general impressions:

The build quality is definitely up from XS. I'm not saying XS has lousy quality but N4 feels more "substantially" in your hand. Two glass panels are slippery for sure. Took me sometime to adjust how to hold the N4. My device arrived in perfect condition: no scratched LCD, no cracked back, no cracked bezel.

Sound quality is a little bit worse than XS. Sony has an upper hand here because the Sony Walkman player is better than Google Music.

LCD screen is definitely not as good as XS. Colors look pale when compared to XS's LED-backlit LCD (343ppi). But it is still a VERY NICE LCD. I am NOT an AMOLED fan and NEVER WILL BE. So hold your comment.

On-screen buttons: mixed feeling. It is much more sensitive than XS hardware touch buttons but it takes away screen space. I prefer hardware touch buttons so I can have my resolution back.

I am not going to comment on Android 4.2 because it is VASTLY SUPERIOR than ICS.

Feel free to ask questions you need my clarification or if I missed something.

Great phone must buy!
[Nexus 4 General] kebabmaker:
Hi, I sold my Xperia S to get a Nexus 4 (still waiting for my order!). The one thing that bugged me about the XS was the poor viewing angles of the display, so how does the N4 compare? Do colours distort badly like they do on the XS? Thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] mpttrung:
Well, I believe that Nexus 4 better than Xperia S when viewing angles because it uses IPS panel :D
[Nexus 4 General] MDaveUK:
Color distortion is there, but it's subtle at slightly off angles then start to see blue or yellow tints depending on the angle you look from. Doesn't tint any where near as much as my galaxy s 2 did, or xperia play. Text is visible on white backgrounds at ANY angle :) it's great having the LCD fused with the glass, helps so much.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Thanks for the question!

The viewing angle of Nexus 4 is definitely better than XS. But the readability under the sun is slightly worse than XS. Everything is a trade-off it seems.

Hope that helps!
[Nexus 4 General] cikomiko:
Could you comment on the camera performance in comparison to xs's?
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Was about to comment on that.

Since both phones uses Sony sensor I don't see there's any major differences. The noise pattern is similar, the high ISO capability is similar, and the camera speed is similar. Xperia S produces some punchier color and contrast, Nexus 4 produces some more flatter image. Both has their pros and cons.

What's better with Nexus 4 is the HDR mode, which is lacking in Xperia S. Also, the focusing seems to be faster than Xperia S. Of course, if the color of Nexus 4 doesn't satisfy you, you can always use the stock image filter to enhance it.

One thing I missed the most about Xperia S is its physical camera button and quick launch mode. Nexus 4's Lockscreen camera widget is still way slower than the quick launch.

If you are into camera quality then Nexus 4 won't disappoint you.
[Nexus 4 General] sirsmokey:
I use to own an Sony lt28i (ION). Now I own the LG E960 (N4).

I found the IONS build quality to be much better than the N4, Sony Walkman kills Google Music, and Sony Media Apps are also very polished and work well. But the development was lacking for the ION ; mostly due to booloader being locked until recent.

The N4 has so much development already and tons more planned for the future. Most of the Sony apps can be flashed onto the N4.

Obviously Ion's 12 mp camera blows nexus 4's 8 mp camera away in clarity.

But did we forget about Nexus 4's Photosphere it is an amazing apk that really takes Sony amazing panorama sofware and basically turns it into a 360 panorama software.

I lost my Ion and got the nexus 4. There are times i miss my Ion but the nexus 4 has made me happy and is a suitable replacement.
[Nexus 4 General] SGS_elko:
AW: Impression of Nexus 4 from someone who had a Xperia S

For your sound complaint I'd suggest poweramp for playing music. I got pretty good sound with the equaliser ;)
[Nexus 4 General] fredaroony:
I have a Xperia S, Xperia TX and a Nexus 4 and the cameras on the Xperia's have a well known issue of slow focusing in low light. I would say the camera on the Nexus is better.

The screen on the Nexus is also better easily.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
N4's camera has focusing issues as well. And you also has to take into account that XS camera is 12mp, when down sized to 8mp the quality is indeed better than N4.

The screen of XS is definitely better, at least color calibration wise. But plagued with yellow spots.

Of course XS and any Sony phones cannot get the same level of Dev activities as Nexus devices, no matter how Sony supports AOSP.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Gotta have something better than stock Android, right? ;)

And I wouldn't exactly say Google music is that inferior than Sony Walkman player. The difference is small.
[Nexus 4 General] roddiex:
XS was terrible

I had the worst smartphone experience of my life with Xperia S. The thing that most bothered me was the touch-sensitive (or should I say touch-insensitive) buttons. They were very irresponsive and I had to touch them several times or press hard on them every time. It was like sony has designed them like that to bother the users. And it got hot even when I was browsing the internet. The only good thing about it was the screen but even that matched with a mediocre battery was not a good idea.

My N4 is a bliss to use. I really can't find anything wrong with it.
[Nexus 4 General] MrBelter:
The screen on my N4 blows both the XS's that live in this house out of the water, it's much better.

My XS screen was just as nice to use however I had removed the shatterproof film of mine and this made it much more sensitive.

I have to agree about the sound though, can't get my N4 to sound as good as my XS did and the equaliser on the N4 just doesn't work right, dare to go a little to high on one of the band's and it just keels over sounding as flat as a fart.
[Nexus 4 General] NexusF:
Mine worked great out of the box. Most of the issues stated above weren't present on my nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 General] justin11141:
I actually had problems too till my 3rd nexus. The first one had a bad screen and awful sound distortion. Then I got the second. Everything was perfect but when I tried to turn up the volume the rocker was like broken. Most unlikely thing ever. Then 3rd time was the charm.
[Nexus 4 General] myturbo1:

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] predation:
like most MHL cables that include the charging port (where you just plug in from wall), is there anything like this for OTG??

tried finding and searching but nothing.....
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
If you're looking for power going to the USB device, then you can use this.

If you want to charge your Note while using the OTG feature, then I've not yet come across anything like that.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Markel Risby:
Just wondering if it is possible to charge the Note 2 while using the OTG yet? I'm in my car all the time and use an external SD card. My 64gig internal card is already full.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
How about a scenario where I have External Battery charger and OTG adapter with usb stick. I want to watch the movie on usb stick while also have External battery connected charging the phone. I guess it's the same problem as not being able to charge up phone from any external source while using another device connected to OTG?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
You could make your own micro USB OTG cable. I still haven't seen one for sale anywhere.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Oh, I don't have issues with OTG cables. I have adapter and cables, and modified cables before: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2107985

I just want to figure out how I can watch movie from usb-stick while charging my phone at the same time. There seems to be no solution for that yet? Or are you suggesting there is a way to make a custom cable to do that? I think once you attach OTG cable to connect a peripheral device, you turn Note 2 into host and it will not accept charging from micro-usb port. No way around it :(
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Oh, I understand what you mean now. In that case, you are correct. You cannot charge your phone and use an external thumb drive at the same time through the usb port. When you plug in an external drive, your phone switches the USB power cables to send the juice instead of receive it.

The only ways I know around that are to use a wireless charge stand or the desk dock.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] farfromovin:
Isn't this exactly what sammys smartdock does? Charge and otg simultaneously?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
Yep. Not possible with just a cable. It needs a microprocessor to regulate the current in and out. Devices plugged into the dock are powered by the dock's power, not the phone's.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] farfromovin:
I hear what your saying, but looking at threads in the S3 section like this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1953061 got me thinking... I'm just trying to make an audio cable for my car that charges and has 3.5mm out to my radio. And I need it to work with every 4.1.X kernel and above, especially stock.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] cajunflavoredbob:
If you get a pinout for the s3, might be able to modify a cable to do both.
