As what CrazyPeter said, just enjoy your tab and get all the juice you can from it. Everything will just fall into place if you want to experiment a little bit. I myself have not yet rooted or flashed custom ROMS but I'd probably will (to maximize my gaming experience). N7 is really doing well in gaming (Tegra 3 is a beast). I suggest, if you play a lot of games, go get an OTG cable and a PS3 controller or a controller built for Android (MOGA is really nice). These controller matches well with games like Shadowgun Deadzone and some pretty good console emulators (NES emu).

If you read a lot, there's a lot of really good readers (Adobe Reader, Kindle Fire) in the Play Store. Perfect Viewer is awesome for comics :D

You can browse the xda forums to help you with your N7 experience.

Guys up till 3 am last night learning and fiddling (sounds odd) but this is what I got so far.

Just want to change the clock with something with a little colour
[Nexus 7 General] heccubusxda:
You're a quick learner, that looks great. What's the clock widget?
[Nexus 7 General] LanceyJSC:
Changed my mind started playing with UCCW now and doing things for myself just want to change the weather icon for it to be more fitting.
[Nexus 7 General] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
Those are actually rather awesome clock widgets, but there's this one that was created by a Google dev called "DashClock" and it's exploded with support and popularity as a suggested replacement to the current bland simple clock. If you search for it in the Play store, it'll show up with loads of optional extensions.

Basically it's like the stock clock, except it allows for extensions and it'll list weather, email, notifications, music, calendar events, alarms, any function you could imagine below it. Apparently a minimal-style list is easier to use than the stupid swiping left and right for additional widgets.
[Nexus 7 General] issak42:
1. What are the best apps to use? What are the apps everyone is using?

- Igag

- Currents (preloaded)

- Mx player is THE video player, it plays everything.

- cloud print, if your printer supports it

- almost every printer nowadays has an app to print and scan too, very useful

- use those 20000 songs you can store in Google cloud - play music

Saves space on N7 :)

- dropbox

- es file explorer

- adownloader (torrent client)

That's what I use daily. Browse trough play store, most of the apps that you know from iDevices are available for android too.

2. What is the best things for Themes? I've heard of Novo and Apex but which one is the best? As a point of knowledge I'm looking for a minimalistic theme.

Its called launcher, kind of like desktop replacement on Linux, but not really. Try the both, but only paid versions offer any real advantages over default launcher. I use nova prime.

Minimalistic themes are useless, they are not very productive, IMHO.

3. Is it really worth putting a new Rom on? Bootloader? Sorry all very new to me this stuff.

No, not really. You will get a hang of it as you browse xda some more, but keep it stock for now, rooting it is worth it though, for example to remove adds.

4. What do people use they Nexus for on an average day?

Emails, web, series and movies on the go, music player through Bluetooth adapter in the living room, news, games...

And navigation, once I get a suitable car mount.

Its also a great eBook reader, I use Mantano app.

I also use it for video monitoring my baby, using IP webcam on my phone and tinycam monitor on nexus7.

5. I want an app that I can draw add notes in but it is seamless with the PC so I can then transfer it to that and work on it in windows (works pc) possibly something like One Note but not One Note.

Search play store a little, I don't know, I don't use them.

6. Where do people get the Nexus fix from? What is your source of information (apart from this wonderful website which I can believe Ive never registered on before)

Xda is the best, other websites just steal from here mostly. You don't need any other, you belong to us now! :)

7. Best Android browser (flash)

Chrome for everyday browsing, Firefox beta does flash I think.

You have to find flash apk yourself though, I never need flash.

Try all popular browsers and decide for yourself. I did, and I stuck to chrome.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kgal:
I updated my AT&T HOX last evening and I've already stumbled upon some bugs:

1. The wall charger and USB cables I used with ICS no longer charge my phone. I left my phone charged the whole night and it went up from 14% to 30%...

2. There is no way to remove debugging mode when connecting the device to the PC.

3. The taskbar time is delayed. When I woke up (incidentally as you will see in section 4) it was 5:59AM. My hand watch said 7:20...

4. The alarm clock never went off! luckily my biological clock was running on time. It might have to do with the fact that Tasker, which I have running silent mode until 7:00AM then back to normal mode after that, takes its time from the taskbar (5:59). This is a pretty fundamental and basic phone function.

5. There is a new icon on my notifications bar. I have no idea what it does...

I have a screenshot attached for section 3,4,5 .

Anybody have this sort of behavior on their device too?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
I'm not on the AT&T 3.18 OTA, but I've been on a couple different 3.17 base custom and stock-rooted ROMs, and haven't noticed any of these problems.

If you updated by OTA (which your probably did) consider backing up your personal data, and doing a factory reset. Many (although not all) random bugs can be traced back to incompatibilities of existing apps and settings with the OTA, that a factory reset and starting fresh will resolve. Updating with keeping user data (although convenient) is really a messy way to do it. A fresh slate gets the best results.

The new icon is for NFC. You can just go into Settings and turn of NFC. No idea why they have it "on" by default on the OTA. Might have to do with AT&T's Isis plans.

Sorry to be a pain, but i am having a blonde moment with Neat Rom, or more specifically installing mods/ themes on it.

Yes i am a noob of sorts, only flashed about 10 custom roms and this is the first one i can't find the answer to.

So to install mods/themes over Neat Rom do i have to install aroma 1st ? I have flashed the rom ok,just can't install any themes onto it. And if i do can anyone point me in the right direction of the correct Aroma installer please. I've used built in aroma on Ressurection Remix rom before and appreciate it will be different to use.

I'm on a I9100 with the nordic LSD rom and had downloaded Neat Rom lite XXMS1 version as well.

Sorry to ask here but it won't let me post to the Neat Rom thread :confused:

MTUX

Hi Janevries,

Thanks a lot !!

Great application; in fact I found another one called MTUX RingtoneX (can be found easily in pocketgear.com ) which does almost the same as Phonext and is not free. The advantage of RingtoneX and Phonext is that both can assign a whole category of contacts to a special ringtone and this is something that Caller2picture cannot do. Hopefully the later versions of Phonext can allow one to assign photos to the contact as well.

Phonext dial properly but can't assign ringtones

Hi folks,

Found the solution in the General section where there is a posting on Phonext- go to settings, connections, connections and dialling locations and change the country code to 44; somehow by default my country code was 1 and area code 425 !!! Don't know why before using phonext this hasn't affected my dialling but anyway with this change, phonext will dial properly. However, I still couldn't assign ringtone using categories or by the contact menu. Any ideas?

Cheers

Version just downloaded

Hi

Thanks for reply. The version I used was just downloaded yesterday. Anyway, will try again to see if it works and will let you know.

Just one question though: how is it that previously when I was not using Phonext, the question of country code did not come in? ie all along I was just dialling ok with the country code set at 1 and area code set at 425 by default when I got the phone and honestly I did not know it was set at these values at all !!!

Hello all,

I just got my N4 couple of days back. I have this problem where when i connect to a 3g network the signal keeps fluctuating. As in it connects to the network for some 5 seconds i ll have full signal and after a couple of seconds there is no signal it shows emergency calls only. This keeps happening repeatedly. But in the 2g network everything is fine. I figured this is a radio ( i had .48 ) problem and flashed an older radio ( .33 ) still the same. i m looking for a solution 2g network is way too slow. This never happened in my nexus s :/

P.S : i dint have a micro sim, so i got the sim cut into a micro sim, is this the problem do i have to buy a micro sim itself ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
It's goes according to your carrier's cell coverage. If you're in area with low HSPA+ coverage then you will lose it and it will automatically switch to another frequency band. Big building can block cell coverage. Going underground or being in the basement will lower your data coverage. It has nothing to do with your sim card or your baseband.
