I've updated the description on YouTube with the list of stuff I used and links to examples. I've also added some Apps that I thought were particularly useful for this project.
[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
Thanks! Will do.
[Nexus 7 General] Major_Sarcasm:
Nice job.

I keep threatening myself with doing something similar but it's bugging me as to how to hold the Nexus in place. I have a 2003 Impreza and although it's double-DIN, it's just a gaping hole, nothing to mount it against.
[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
Thats kinda how any of them are. I'll take some pics tonight and post them of how I mounted it. Basically I took the double din kit I bought and, using a dremil with a cut-off disk, sliced off all the stuff down to the basic bracket that holds the kit to the car's dash. I then cut off two pieces of paint stirring sticks (the free wooden ones you get from home depot) to go across the bracket and epoxy'ed them onto the bracket. I then drilled 4 holes the size of the magnets and epoxy'ed them in place. Then I epoxy'ed three strips of hobby metal strips with holes in them (you get them at Lowes where all the bins of nuts and bolts are) to the back of the nexus 7.

any plans for bluetooth handfree phone calls?

I recently got a Nexus 7 also and plan to do an in-dash install. After looking at a number of projects like this around the web there is one thing I cannot find a really good solution for: hands free Bluetooth for my phone.

Ideally I would like to use the tablet to make and receive calls via Bluetooth through my phone just like you can with many Bluetooth enabled in dash decks.

I have looked at a couple apps to aid in this like: Tablet Talk, and GrooveIP

While these could possibly provide the feature the remaining problem would be the microphone built in to the tablet.

Have you thought about this for your install? If not, does anyone else know of a setup that would provide an ideal hands-free Bluetooth experience for making and receiving calls?
[Nexus 7 General] Dennelly:
This looks good..I'm hoping to do something like this once I buy a car..
[Nexus 7 General] maek_it_happen:
The solution is the JVC x50-bt

Used in conjunction with tablet talk it is the ultimate in smart car connectivity

That's how my friends is hooked up

Phone audio and calls go through Bluetooth to the deck

as well as audio from the tablet

the phone is also connected to the tablet through tablet talk

So all calls are handle by the tablet but audio is fed through the speakers and us voice into the mic of the deck

Now the music playing on the tablet stops since the audio feed of the deck is switched to call , when the call is finished audio from tablet returns
[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
Yah, I've asked that very question in several places and there doesn't seem to be a solution for it. Ideally it would work like any other bluetooth enabled car deck out there that links up to your phone and can make and receive calls through your phone via the tablet.

If every BT deck or stock car audio system with BT built in can do it I'm not sure why there isn't an app out there that adds this functionality to your tablet.

So for all you app developers out there, I would would be willing to pay for an app that does just that.
[Nexus 7 General] maek_it_happen:
The JVC is what works best believe me .....you cannot have phone audio transfered to a tablet , probably a security design I. The os
[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
I liked the Nexus 7 I bought for my car so much I just bought my second Nexus 7. This time I got the 16GB as it was the same price as the 8GB one I bought for my dash. Going to just use this one as a tablet and play with it, rooting, flashing ROM's etc.

I love this thing. :)
[Nexus 7 General] ralg0528:

[Nexus 7 General] bmakk2055:
How did you get the sound to come out of car speakers?
[Nexus 7 General] maek_it_happen:
Lol
[Nexus 7 General] bmakk2055:
Is he running it straight to an amp?
[Nexus 7 General] maek_it_happen:
There is different ways ...you can use a deck that has aux in or a Bluetooth deck like the JVC I mentioned in this thread .....there are other options I'm sure
[Nexus 7 General] androph:
Anyone try this:

1. Audio out headphone jack to crossover

2. Crossover out to amps

-most crossover have sub, front and rear output with gain control for sub

- this allows separation of sub ( low freq) from mids and highs

- also allows separate volume control of sub through crossover

With this you can run any input to crossover, even some Bluetooth audio receiver so you can connect wirelessly

[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
Any electrical type peeps out there wanna help me with a problem? There was a humming sound coming fro the speakers along with alternator noise when the engine is running. This only happens when I have the power plugged into the tablet. If the tablet is running off of its own battery and not plugged in there is zero hum or whine from alternator. I purchased a ground loop isolator for the power plug the tablet is getting it's power from. This took care of the alternator whine but the low pitched hum is there still present at high volume. Any ideas?
[Nexus 7 General] erica_renee:
sometimes crossed polarity on speaker wires or lack of shielding can cause this... Check all your connections for loose wires as well...

[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
I bought an rca ground loop isolator from radio Shack today and installed it in between the volume control and the amp and it's completely gone. Perfect. Now 100% happy. Not sure if I needed the first one now that I put on the power socket but it's perfect now so I ain't gonna mess with it. :)

GPS

hi there,

is gps doing fine in dash mount?

cause antennas are all in backplate.

i want to buy a nexus7 3G for my smart 451 ;)

,,not checked if there is enough space, also for usb and 3,5mm connectors..

nice work, also thx for the app recommendation!

greetings, phil

[Nexus 7 General] player911:
I would setup a new launcher. That stock one looks nasty in landscape. Try Apex in tablet mode.

Nice setup though. I've been thinking of doing something like this in my car but what do you do for data? Is that the 3G N7? Or do you just play local MP3s?

I wonder if there is someway to have a Bluetooth Controlled FM module or something that can pipe FM and control the tuning on the N7.
[Nexus 7 General] maek_it_happen:

[Nexus 7 General] Shinare:
Thanks. I'm kinda with ya on the stock launcher. I bought nova launcher when it was super cheap. I might put that on there or try apex.

[Nexus 7 General] tmclaugh:
Help?!

I have the x80BT and am having a tough time getting my Nexus 7 to automatically connect.

Did you do anything special? As far as I can tell from my googling - Nexus 7 does not emulate a phone's BT profile so the JVC autoconnect feature will not pick it up.

Any help you can provide will save a large amount of time returning my new deck. :(
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
I performed the Unbrickablemod hardware modification the other day with a friend. We did it and it showed up as the dev board. I can successfully boot it into download mode and use the one-click install in the thread. (Here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312391)

But that's where I'm stuck. Heimdall performs the one-click successfully, but my Tab doesn't boot up, and the screen stays off no matter what. I saw someone having a similar issue in the main thread but they didn't post again. Someone else posted that you can get the power strip light up if you unplug it and press the power button a couple of seconds, or if you plug it to the wall charger. Both worked for me too, but I don't know where to go from here.

Any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
can you boot to download mode?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
I can't, any key combination with the power key just lights up the touch strip. Nothing on the screen.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
what is your device model, any chance you have flashed a wrong firmware into it after it was resurrected?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
It's a GT-P1000 and I used the one-click Heimdall suite provided in the OP. I also tried Turkish firmware I downloaded from samfirmware with heimdall command-line tool. (1.3.1) Still no luck. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
I wonder if you can still make the unbrickable to kick into dev mode again?

And use GB-stock-safe-v5 from overcome instead? (link in my signature)

it is a complete JQ1 (Italian) rom.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
Oh, download mode via Unbrickablemod still works, I guess that's the only beacon of hope that keeps me going. :P I'll try it once I get back from work. I can't use it if it's in Italian, but the important thing is getting the tablet boot up and enter the recovery on its own, right?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
It is European ROM, it has English.

But it is stock. If that boots, it is resurrected.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
Finally got some time to work on my Tab.

I got the files, didn't know how to use them with Heimdall since the tutorial was written for Odin. Extracted all the files and followed Heimdall's usage. I guess I got something wrong, but magically, the screen came up showing the "Downloading" screen. Then it rebooted into the infamous glowing Samsung logo bootloop with vibration.

I'm now trying to go into download mode, if anything comes up I'll post about it. I have no idea how it worked but now I know I didn't bust the screen somehow when I performed the hardware mod. Thanks!

Edit: I can get it to download mode by itself. Now I need to find a PC with Windows to try Odin. Shucks.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
By the way, I tried flashing Technomancer's kernel provided in the Cyanogenmod wiki to instal CM directly, but can't boot into recovery. I guess I need to complete Overcome flashing, then try flashing CM. Does that sound correct?

Edit: Thanks to this tutorial, I have successfully managed to flash Overcome and I guess CWM is also installed. My Tab is finally revived! I'll keep you up to date with the progress on installing Cyanogenmod. Thanks for all the help!

Aforementioned tutorial: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34692020
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
I kept following the Overcome manual, managed to install Overcome kernel and now I got CWM working! It's backing up current Overcome installation right now, I think I'm doing it right.

Edit: It's done! I got CM9 on my Tab and it works great! (Kinda. No official CWM sucks.) But it's great. I'm happy that I turned my Tab back from death. Thank you so much.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Glad it is revived.

Yeah, I am quite dismayed that cm wiki doesn't recommended overcome kernel when it is obviously the one that works best.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frontsideair:
After all the headache I endured, I really wish they'd written a more through wiki entry for Galaxy Tab. But Overcome works like magic, and after flashing Overcome, Cyanogenmod installer zip easily flashed newer CWM versions. It's up-to-date and works great. Thanks again! More people should know about Overcome.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] gmatharu12:
Usually you have an option called Overscan or Full-Scan which needs to be adjusted when this happens.

I can't say what all TVs call it but Samsungs you have Full-Scan which needs to be set for a full 1080p picture and Panasonics have an option called Overscan which needs to be turned off for a full 1080p picture.

Good luck.

Download build.prop editor if you want to do more things with your device...or download density changer if you only want to change density...

Lots of apps are available on play store to do this...

Lower value =high resolution effect

Higher value =low resolution effect

One advice...

Keep in mind...

Some manufacturers modified their own ui over stock...which might causes some issues...

So... better to install another launcher... before applying... (third party launchers are able to catch any resolution...)
