[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] teh roxxorz:
Personally, since it has no sd card, I played it safe. My music alone would never fill it up, though i have some ~ 3,900 songs.

When I load up game of thrones, it takes some space. I'd use my otg for long trips or if i won't have access for a while.

Also, you can't use otg without an app that will mount it, currently, until its enabled in custom roms.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kayone73:
Indeed, loading up movies & videos for viewing while travelling, it eats up space fast. For an extra $40 seems silly not to opt for the 32gb if one had the availability and choice.

Moral of the thread

Different strokes for different folks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] conan1600:
I am actually a big fan of secure cloud. Netflix and YouTube, Hulu, and other less known sites. I have many devices but I don't think I've gone beyond 8 on any. Just not a prob for me. But I can see where it would be for some. I have like more books on nook than I can readily count, music, games and when it comes to backup's I push to PC, usually wirelessly lol. I find it safer to store on PC plus no room issues. This is a play with device to hold me till the big boys start popping out and I'm frugal. That said I'm coming to like her much more than I thought I would. When this tab gets a few more mods it will really be a beauty.

Like the man said, different strokes.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] NyPlaya513:
see I agree with the wireless services, but I also read alot of books/manga/comics on my first nexus 7 and the 32 filled up. That along with the install files for certain games like gta will all tear down your hdd space
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] teh roxxorz:
I agree. I like the cloud, dropbox , Netflix, etc. But this being a WiFi only tablet, everywhere you go doesn't have WiFi. I can tether my phone, but that isn't the point. So like a good developer, plan for worst case scenario.

That sounds kind of sexy. Grrr
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mrc13an:
It seems like a smart choice to go with the 32GB model and here's why:

To hold more music, movies, documents, videos, pictures, etc.

To safeguard against changing needs in the future. While you may only have 8GB of stuff now and have a history of that type of usage, you may find that a change in circumstance needs a change in usage patterns that requires more space.

Since there is no microSD expansion possibility, you cannot simply upgrade your storage as time passes without tying your tablet to something else and severely limiting its mobility.

Because you can't always count on reliable, free/cheap network access to receive content that is not on your device.

To provide added value if and when you try to sell your device to somebody else. If the market is full of 32GB models, which seems quite likely, how easy is it going to be for you to sell your device? Will your future income difference be more than your current upgrade cost?

For the extra $40 and piece of mind, why not?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] angry english:
The main reason i bought a 32gb is the same reason i sold my 16gb and bought a 32gb original nexus, when i got to about 14gb maybe a little less on my original N7... it would lag bad, so i wasnt taking the chance this time and for the extra few bucks it was a no brainer, its not like you cant use OTG on the 32gb
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Geodude074:
Unless I'm mistaken, you can't install apps on an external memory source, correct?

Storing movies/music/pictures on a USB is fine, but you can't install .apk's on a USB and just plug it in the N7v2 and expect it to work.

Unless I'm wrong...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] keynith:
I bought 32gb for resale value as well as piece of mind.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] :
You can boot a ROM directly off a USB drive using MultiRom.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Geodude074:
Thanks for that info...

But can you install an .apk onto a USB drive?

Like for example, can you connect a USB drive to your N7 and install Angry Birds on your USB instead of your N7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Nbsss:
'Folder Mount' is the name if I remember correct. I had 12gb worth of game data on my 16gb USB. I hardly play games as well, so I found it more convenient this way..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] beartrap:
Nobody's mentioned the wireless charging capability of the 32gb, that was one factor for me in addition to not having a otg cable dangling as others have already stated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] jiggytom:
Lol? Maybe no one mentioned it because the 16gb also has wireless charging haha
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] beartrap:
I could have sworn I had read that was for 32gb only, but obviously that was wrong. Probably a pre-release article on the future specs.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] whoamanwtf:
Because having a nice sleek tablet and holding it sideways to get full use of the screen is much less efficient and comfortable with a OTG cable and flash drive hanging out of it...Also I like to game and **** long sometimes and you cannot charge and use the OTG at the same time can ya?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] goofball2k:
It's a multi-use device and if I want to have some videos of mine, along with videos for the boys in the car (and no, I don't have a wifi hotspot in my car), 16GB cuts it close. I don't trust them to not break the microUSB connector and I don't like having to use straps/velcro to try to hold it all together. I have this sleek package for travelling but then I have to have a wire coming out of it and try to make it so it's not dangling around.

FWIW, I have the original N7 16GB and with videos re-encoded with lower resolution/bitrate, I only have 3GB free and I have no videos of my own on it. It doesn't have that many apps, no real games.

I can see the need for 32GB, but I'll wait to see pricing in Canada for it. A retailer is showing it to be about $30 more to go from 16 to 32 so I may just bite the bullet to get the 32GB and have some free space if necessary.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Obveron:
I'd buy a 64GB version if I could.

I will be using a OTG cable for loading new content on the move, but I think having lots of built-in storage is a must. I like to keep a large music library available and I don't want to have to plug in a drive everytime I want to load a new HD movie.

I can't charge it and stream movies from USB at the same time.

Very frustrated the 32gb model isn't available in Canada yet, does anyone know when it will hit the shelves at Staples, Futureshop, or Bestbuy (I prefer to buy in-store)?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] angry english:
+1 on the 64gb, at $299 that would be great, im just hoping they dont stuff us with 16gb max on the new nexus 4 this year, give me a bigger nand over otg usb storage any day

Just want to ask... if i will install an apps in the magician... will the resolution of the interface of the program will be scaled to the size of the magician...

For example... if i will install a 3rd party calendar apps... when it was installed to a blue angel, it fits on its screen... what will happen if i install it into magician, will it fit also on its screen?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] BeyondtheTech:
They are both portrait 240x320, it's just that the Magician has a 2.8" screen while the Blue Angel has a 3.5" screen. One can say that the image is clearer or crisper on the Magician because it's smaller, but they are of the same resolution.

The keyboard keeps closing itself in a L7 P705. It happens in any app.

It has the China Beijing Unicom official ROM V20C (Android 4.1.2) and both the LG stock keyboard and the Google official keyboard that you may know is available from Play Store keeps closing itself while you're typing, or simply doesn't open when you tap a text field, or also happen to blink about 4 times in the screen then vanishes and remains closed. It happens regularly and the keyboard only returns you put the smartphone away for some time or restart it.

The phone has everything stock and the only thing I uninstalled was the LG task manager (via the app manager). Has anyone experienced the same? It has been recently reset to factory settings so I don't think doing this again would solve the issue.

Any help is greatly appreciated! :x

Hi.

Today I ripped out the Samsung calendar that comes stock with Titanium and installed Google's calendar instead. When I attempted to use the new calendar, I wasn't able to sync at all - when I go to settings to choose calendars to sync, it says "loading" indefinitely. Is there a way around this issue, or am I forced to keep the Samsung apk installed? If so, could someone please post or link to the apk so I don't have to dig it out of a backup. Thanks a lot!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] asctony:
I know this won't help you, however, I have a problem with my T-Mobile Note 2. When I add an event to my Gmail calendar, it will show in my phone but not in my GCalendar. I have tried everything and I get 'Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.' This only applies to my Sync Calendar. Sync Contacts and Gmail does sync properly. Hope someone finds a fix for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ratlegion:
Please disregard opening post; I have settled the issue myself.

When you say you're adding an event to your Gmail calendar, are you adding the event through the app with the green trim or the app with the blue trim?

If you are using the calendar app made by Google (blue trim), much of the time to settle this issue, all you have to do is go into the app manager and find the calendar storage and wipe cache. I have never had a time where sync wasn't "experiencing problems." It is normal, and Google refuses to fix it. Also, when adding an event, make sure it has your Gmail address as the calender name or a calendar you've made in the cloud selected, because if it says "local" or something like that, it's only being saved to the phone and the phone calendar won't sync, similar to how contacts won't sync on their own to Google unless they are saved as Google contacts.

If instead you are using the Samsung app (green trim), you have to manually sync your calendar to the cloud. It's an annoying process that immediately turned me off to using it in the first place.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] asctony:
Thank you! Fixed

I just downloaded Google Calendar from Google Play and checked my TEST Events and now they are there in all my Calendars. Just re-synced and it worked. I have no idea other than when I installed Google Calendar that corrected the problem. Thanks for your time and reply. I do appreciate your advise. I walked through all your suggestions.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biologos:
Hi guys. For the past three days, I have a weird problem. When I am charging my transformer, it seems to not go above 59%. At first I thought it maybe was a bug, as it happened a short time after installing and running BOINC for android. The thing is, I also put it in my phone, which is an older SE xperia x10i, with no such problem. I even changed a power outlet, but no change, still stuck at 59 % in overnight charge, once it hit that number it stopped showing that it was charging. Also, I uninstalled BOINC and the problem didn't go away.

Any help is appreciated!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mavermc:
I just got mine back form the factory (refurb that had tons of flickering issues first week i got it) and after I got it back I updated and mine does the same thing. at first I thought it just didn't charge with the screen off but now that you said 59% it always seems to be at 59% i've tried both charging it with the original wall wart and cable, and trying to use the keyboard dock but it's the same both times it stops at 59
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mavermc:
Update *FIXED*

I got mine back from RMA, it had 4.1.2 on it, there was an update though so I did it (with the keyboard dock plugged in, not sure if that is important) I never used it before the update so I'm not sure if it was the update or that's just a problem with how it was shipped back to me, but it would consider 59% a full charge and stop charging.

Fix

Factor reset, seems to work fine now, at 80% and climbing I'll report back if anything else happens.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biologos:
Thanks for the response. I was kinda hopping I wouldn't have to factory reset, I takes quite some time to reroot and restore from TB. At least, it's good that it seems to be software and not hardware related, at first I thought that maybe something on my charger had snapped and it wasn't providing adequate voltage for the remaining 41%.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mavermc:
Update, everyday i do a factory reset, it works fine but the next day it won't charge, this had happened twice.

Factory reset fixes it but the next day it's broken again.

i'm going to run down the battery and see if it will charge up to 59% and get stuck there again or if it just doesn't charge overall. So before you go factory reset and setup all your apps give it a few days and make sure it works right.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biologos:
Funny thing, my tablet actually started charging back to 100% again. Or, to be more accurate, the indication is 100%, I haven't run performance tests to see the actual charge level. I have no idea what caused it or if it fixed itself permanently.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamsaborido:
Hi guys!

I will try to mod a Galaxy Ace (stock 2.3.6), but the home button is dead.

So, I suppose the most part of my job will be made under adb shell. I'm thinking to start rooting it using SuperOneClick. But I need a recovery version that don't use the home button. I was thinking to flash the PX Recovery, which have touch support. But all the versions I looked for are flashable via recovery (I found a Galaxy Mini recovery flashable via Odin instead).

I was noticed by this forum search engine a same issue with a Galaxy S phone user, solved using CF-Root (its CWM shifts home for power button, a nice workaround), but I don't want to make a mistake and brick this Ace.

I could flash PX Recovery, extracting the img file from the CWM package, pushing it to the phone and flashing it manually, but it could be risky also. Just an idea, since the recovery interface do the same thing, but with a GUI.

I'd like some directions before perform any flash on this phone. I found a lot of resources here for my old phones (Motorola MB501, Samsung Galaxy 5 and Ace), but this Ace will be a challenge, for sure!

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamsaborido:
Out warranty, and the service center will, for sure, replace the entire board, so they can charge more money than the service I need. In Brazil, it's common raise the service prices more than needed. Would be easier find for another Ace than fix it =)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
Try to root your your phone using superoneclick. Then install cwm manager & select install update from sd card. And flash px recovery. Choose a stock based rom with ext4 file system & flash without wipes. I think you won't be able to wipe anything off stock rom as it isn't in ext4 format. Now after flashing the rom, reboot. Now reboot into recovery, do full wipes & flash the rom again to get it clean ! Done !

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamsaborido:
Venomous, just don't forget my dead home button. I can't make selections on the recovery interface. If you read above, I'm thinking to use adb commands to flash it (adb shell flash-recovery cwm.img, for example). So, if I extract the recovery img file, push it into the phone sd card, and flash using adb/fastboot, will it work?

As well I can switch to download mode through adb (reboot-download).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
But px recovery doesn't require home button & cwm manager is just an app, not recovery. I haven't tried superoneclick & I donno if it uses home button during the process. But if not, my method should work.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamsaborido:
Venomous, seems you don't understood it at all. I'm not willing install CWM Manager on a stock ROM. I want flash the PX Recovery (touch support). The point is: can I flash the recovery img file via adb?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
But why are you not willing to install the cwm manager ? What's the reason ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] williamsaborido:
Is CWM Manager a frontend of CWM Recovery, or is it an Independent app? Once this ace is still stock (stock recovery, I can't flash unsigned packages), I'm not sure it will work. Did you got it now?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venomous Viper 119:
CWM manager is an app. You can access it from app drawer, grant su permissions & select install update from sd card. Choose px recovery zip & it automically reboots into recovery & flashes it for you. And then you can use px recovery to flash roms. I'm sorry I cannot help any further unless you try or I'm sorry if I ain't able to understand what you want to convey.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] SoumyaRP:
Hi Experts

My Optimus 4X HD (jelly bean) has been rooted and boot loader unlocked successfully. CWM touch recovery is also installed and I was all set to flash cyanogenmod ROM 10.1.2.

My device is stuck at the LG splash screen after I selected normal boot from the 4X Touch Recovery app.

When I try to enter recovery mode using Volume + and Power button, get the warning message from LG; "This mode is for data backup at service center..." and does not allow further. In short I am not able to boot in any mode.

Is there a way to bypass the warning message from LG and enter recovery mode.

I have checked ADB is working fine once I power up and connect via USB. I can see the device in ADB Devices command.

I am also able to enter another console (volume - and power button) but there is no recovery option. Just data reset and wipe cache partition etc are available.

Is there a way to enter recovery mode and flash recovery image or flash ROM from ADB

Please advise.

Thanks

Soumya

The warning says "This mode is for data backup at service center, please remove battery and place again abd then use power button....."

Somehow this has affected my 32 gig SD card which is unreadable now. That had all the recovery images etc, will try to use another one. The sd card is simply unusable now. :crying:
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Flying_Bear:
you're doing it wrong - don't use volume up and power. just hold volume down while plugging in the cell phone into computer (no need to press power button at all).

this way you'll go into s/w upgrade mode, where you can use kdz flasher to flash 20a kdz file.
