32gig here!

My 32gig hardware wise it's perfect. Had a problem with the software. It was fine for two weeks until one day when I turned it on it got stuck at the Nexus logo and never gets past it. So tried it again a few times with no avail. So had to get into recovery and do factory reset. I figured some update or software got stuck doing shutdown. So rather risk an issue with the hardware when I do an exchange I just do a factory reset. So far it's working fine.

Going to get it unlocked, rooted and install custom recovery so I can make a backup of it.

If it gets stuck again then will have to get it exchanged and soon before 30 days are up. If not will have to deal with Google / Asus. Hopefully it's not a hardware problem because this device is perfect. No dead pixels, no light bleeding..nothing so want to keep this.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Failrunner:
Same happened here.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ridgeline:
No issues here loving the change from my iPad.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] hobjob:
16GB here, no issues *knock on wood*
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Darkk69:
Also got mine from GameStop at launch. Best Buy didn't have any 32gigs in stock so had to look around. Finally occurred to me to try GameStop and sure enough they had few in stock. Wohoo!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] mr1ncred1ble:
No hardware issues I can find. Have not extensively tested GPS, and haven't tried wireless charging yet. So far I'm very satisfied and would/have recommend to others.

Got mine two days before the official release as the Best Buy in my area was selling them early. Flawless, couldn't be happier.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Iamstillawesome:
Working Great

I've had my 32gb N7 WiFi for about a week and a half. All functions multi-touch, GPS, WiFi, battery, power button, etc. are working great.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RKight:
Zero problems with my 16gb bought from Office Depot. Bought a 16gb first gen six months ago from the same Office Depot, also zero issues.

32GB WiFi bought about a week ago from Best Buy, no issues at all! Very happy.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] hyperxguy:
I'm very satisfied with my Tab.

It has no flaw (and I'm not looking for any .. like cranking the brightness to the max in a darkroom.. or bending it in many ways looking for creakiness... or running some apps to identify any bad pixels.. if I ain't seeing it --> it's not there. I've been thru this fiasco many times before, since the TF101 .. I learned it may cause unhappiness in life. I found out all my TVs/Monitors have light-bleeds and a bad pixels or two which I've never known existed. And my brand-new $40K car had scratches all over + slightly uneven body gaps + more...).

Just enjoy.

By the way, there is no perfect Nexus 7 ... yet... until Google fixes the dann GPS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] leviwhite9:
Seemingly perfect so far. I was so scared as to what I'd get with having tremendous issues with previous devices I've had but this one seems to be perfect. :good: So happy! :laugh:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Aetherhole:
Mine's been perfect so far! Great screen, great battery life, no issues thus far!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] laxinchili:
you folks that have purchased one recently- within the last week or so:

what build dates are you getting?? any aug yet??
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] BlueCross:
Mine is perfect
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] PainfulLover:
Speak for yourself, my gps is ok out-of-the-box.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] can6rxw:
Mine's fine out of the box...absolutly no issues. Love it! My build date is July 18th. By the way...what does N7FHD mean again? I know its another moniker for the 2013 Nexus 7 and amazon is involved with it but for the life of me, I can't remember. :o
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] gabo_e30:
I got a perfect N7FHD on Friday. Being enjoying the beautiful screen and amazing speakers all weekend! Never have I watched so much Netflix !

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Angus66:
I have a Nexus 32GB FHD - no issues out of the box. Bought it on (early) launch day.

My wife has a 16GB that I purchased for her ~ 10 days later - also zero issues with it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sfhub:
That's the build date for the kernel, which in this case basically means you downloaded/installed the JSS15J OTA update.

I think what people were looking was the manufacturing date, which would be on your box label, 2013.06, 2013.07 and maybe 2013.08 real soon now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] can6rxw:
We all have a "duh" moment from time to time...this was mine :) Thanks!!

It worked perfectly for me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sensboston:
I'm really glad for all of you who had "no issues at all" but I have a few questions to you:

have you ever checked the real device uptime (Settings->About->Status and scroll down) and compared with the actual date/time you've turned on your Nexus?

do you have NFC/GPS sensors turned on all the time?

do you have Wi-Fi network scanning option set to enable scanning?

have you ever checked multi-touch functionality as mentioned here on some threads?

have you checked GPS functionality as mentioned here on xda forums?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xperia64:
Got my "repaired" tablet today (entirely new one) and.... the screen is flawless :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Still need to test GPS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] martian13:
Me, but I haven't tested the GPS. Nor do I care.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Bobflan:
All good!

2013.06 No problems :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] cloud1111:
No issues with mine
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] MrPhilo:
I checked them all before.

Just checked them again and it all seems perfect to me, I doubt that all Nexus 7 will have problems.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] sensboston:
So, in other words you are saying it's a hardware-related problems? However my random reboots issue was fixed by unchecking Wi-Fi scanning option (have no random reboots since I've disabled scanning) - I'm 100% sure 'cause I'm still monitoring tablet's up-time with Bootlog Uptime app.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] MrPhilo:
Hardware or software I don't really care, my tablet is working as intended with no problem at all, that is all for me and what the thread OP wants to know.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] seanu13:

Just got my 32GB unit today. Ran several "Dead pixel" tool apps and there appeared to be none. Checking out the multi-touch and GPS tonight.

Edit: Multi-touch works just fine. I Haven't had the GPS on for more than 2 or 3 minutes so don't yet know if that's a problem.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] BoneXDA:
So how many out of 10 is expected to be problematic, minus GPS problem? Some returned 5, others say it's okay, what, every 2nd unit is bad?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] marmankites:
Mine is PEEEEERRFECT
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Johmama:
I haven't purchased mine yet; hopefully ordering today. When I get it I'll report what it's like.

By the way, anyone else find it strange that there are so many threads on xda complaining about reboots or GPS issues; stating that they've exchanged half a dozen of these tablets while sitting in their car to inspect them? I mean, for any random end-user, sure (although, sitting in your car in the parking lot to inspect and/or return it? Come on), but for an average xda user it seems kind of weird. I would expect that they would try basic troubleshooting before resorting to a return.

...and I know what some responses are going to be:

Again, for the average end-user who bought this tablet as just a tablet, sure, complain on your blog and return it. If you're posting on www.xda-developers.com/ about a Nexus device, you might want to try some basic (preferably advanced) troubleshooting before posting a thread about how yours is defective because it rebooted on you twice. Try flashing a custom ROM and see if it persists. Try re-flashing the stock image off of Google's website. Try taking a bug report or something useful that you can post on xda to find the root of the problem. Heck, if you're an avid xda member, troubleshooting and problem solving should be fun to you.

Then post it on your blog. Unless your post has something useful, something as simple as steps to replicate the issue, to help solve it, then your thread has no place here.

K, well that doesn't really help. Instead of posting a new thread, try posting something like that in an already-existing thread. That'll cut down on the dozens of threads saying exactly the same thing.

...Whoa I kinda took that a little far. Guess I've been keeping that bottled up too long. Didn't mean to steer the thread or anything, just needed to get that out there. Do I have a good point, or am I just a crazy guy on xda who needs to post less? Sometimes it's a very thin line...
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] laxinchili:
uhhhh.. no? how about you stop calling people out and telling them what to do

it is clear this device has issues, ofcourse people are going to post about it here on a forum full of early adopters for this device... and the problems even been acknowledged by google

you don't even own or have owned this device

maybe once you have to deal with the absolute waste of time that is going back and forth between the store and home multiple times over some ****ty thing like dead pixels or GPS you will understand why some are pissed...

I have store credit pending on google/asus' pathetic QC efforts and I'm playing the waiting game, but saying we should try some "basic (preferably advanced) troubleshooting" because we're on XDA is ridiculous
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Pervbear:
Mine is grand. Have a feeling my USB port might fail but that was my bad.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Johmama:
Ok, apparently I hit a nerve. Most of my post was talking about how people who have an issue come to xda and post a thread like "my device rebooted and now im mad!" instead of looking in the hundreds of other threads about the exact same issue. I was also commenting on the fact that most of those threads also have a post on the second page saying something like "Well I finally did a factory reset and now it's fine, for now". My comments contained a bit of frustration at the fact that said person didn't at least try a factory reset before making their thread. This is xda-developers, I feel like simple troubleshooting such as a factory reset should be second nature to any frequenter. Not that a thread with a simple fix such as that should never be posted, but the amount of those kinds of threads on this sub-forum is a little out of control.

I can imagine how frustrating it could be receiving a defective product, sending it back, and waiting for it to be couried back and forth. No need to assume I'm completely ignorant to what you're going through.

Is it, though? As I've been heavily implying, this is a developer's site. While you don't necessarily need to be a developer to be a part of the community, you should at least be an enthusiast who likes to tinker with mobile devices. Someone familiar with simple troubleshooting techniques such as, let's say, a factory reset. Now, I know I keep harping on the "factory reset" option, but it's just an example of simple things one should try before going on xda and posting a thread saying that their device is defective. Again, not that one should never ever post a thread without trying all of those troubleshooting techniques, I would just hope some would be tried before making an entirely new thread.

Now, I'm not trying to derail this thread, I was simply explaining myself. I'm going to order my tablet right now, I'll post back here with my observations when I receive it. Fingers crossed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] dannycalgary:
The one I received from the Play Store seems to be just fine. Did the multi touch test, did a dead pixel test, can't tell any light bleed but meh, not noticeable when I look at it normally. Haven't tested any GPS thing though.

"I consider myself the luckiest man in the face of the earth"

No issues whatsoever. Working perfectly with the SG S4 wireless charger.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] phazerorg:
I agree with you about people making new threads... but for many of us, we've been following and involving ourselves with the threads dedicated to these issues, and many things have been tried and experiences shared. Plus the fact that for many people the tablet is working perfectly right out of the box. I think that's the reason many people are trying it out in the parking lot and if it has the same issues that have been reported and troubleshooted as best we can without being Asus or Google employees, just return it immediately.

Anyone reading the threads about these issues knows all the common things have already been tried, including factory resets, other ROMs, etc. Experiences shared on this site have shown the issues have the same things in common and none of these troubleshooting techniques have helped to fix it. So without more information, people just return it if they see the issues and hope to get one that works like it should.

Personally, I'm on my third tablet and I've tried all the common stuff. I'm a software developer by occupation (although not an Android developer), so I have a good idea of what would be involved in really digging into the cause of issues like these. The problems look hardware-related - which does NOT necessarily mean they can't be fixed with software, but only the most dedicated of developers are going to be willing to spend the time required to dig into kernel, driver and API code. I know I'm not, unless Asus or Google is willing to pay me and provide me with hardware specs. So at this point, after having read all the posts about the issues, I'd rather just quickly return it and hope for one that works properly.

Just my thoughts.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Claghorn:
"No issues" is an awfully high bar to set. I would say I had no issues that seemed important. I had to train my fingers to have a lighter touch to avoid some problems, and it won't always wake up right away when I open the magnetic case if wifi is off, but neither of those were a big deal.

Now SDK for Japanese / Simple and Traditional Chinease were released.

And i took out the wince.nls form emulator, and use in my WM5.0 Himalaya. Japanese encoding had be done in internet and inbox complietly!

If you need chinesse encoding wince.nls file, you can get from SDK of Chinese!

I got from japanese wince.nls from japanese SDK.

from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...E3-C129-4C25-ABAA-18E8E842178F&displaylang=en

See my pictures

hi asukal. can u post the link to download wince.nls for chinese. i am not sure how to get it or how to install. and u just replace the wince.nls at windows? Thants all?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Asukal:
yes i will do. pls wait,now i am in manila on business.

i already took the 3 different wince.nls of wm5 sdk, from JP SDK, T-CH SDK,S-CH SDK,

the one from Jp sdk worked(no chines encoding support).

T-CH one is not successfull to replace, i dont know why. it was biggest size in those 3 nls. , 1.2mb.

didint test the one from S-CH,

any way, i will up load after back from trip on sunday.

so far i have tested:

input chinese with monster sip + plugins -> ok

display chinese with pocket word -> ok

chinese file names in file explorer -> ok

sms and other stuff -> ok

screenshots will be upped later when im done installing stuff

btw all this is tested on 1.60a

thx asukal u rock!

btw...one more thing...how can i disable area codes when i call..like hong kong phone numbers dont need area code

if i call 91231234 it turns to (912)312-34

any idea? thx
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] chris_khho:
You have to change the regional setting to Chinese (HKSAR). If not, change to english (Australia).

Also, go to the option of the dialing pad, change the area code as well.

Cheers,
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Asukal:
thats good! how about ie and e-mail? also regional setting, those need encoging. sms-word doesnt need encode,

re-area code, pls go to settings---conections----connection----advance--dialing rules, then you can find "Use daialing rules" and check it, and edit one of them, you can find "dialing patterns"

the default is +e.f.g.

i put just "g".

I have replaced the origianal wince.nls which is 266kb in size to the "chinese"wince.nls 1162kb in my windows, himalaa(xda2). I then soft reset. I have the same english version again. Must I hard reset instead?

what must I do?

Where did I go wrong?

Help please...

Thank u in advance...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Asukal:
I tried to replace wince.nls of Simle and Traditional Chinese into my Himalaya.

but i couldnt as i told.

i compaired them with japanese wince.nls. and found the difference.

NLS from Japanese SDK was named "wince.nls" in small letters.

But NLS from Simple and Trad Chinese were named "WINCE.NLS" in Large Leters.

Of couse i didint think this difference was mean nothing!

But at this moment, i dont have any other good idea! so i changed large to small.

[WINCE.NLS ----- wince.nls]!!! unblievale!

After soft reset my Himalaya!

wince.nls gave me the Chinese Encoding!! See my caputered!

S-Chinese wince.nls just support P.R of china, and Singarpole.

T-Chinese wince.nls already have those two with HK / Taiwan / Macao, so i will not upload.

Because too cost to upload it again with GPRS in Manila<roaming with China Telcom SIM>.

It took 30 min last up load from here!!! No Broadband!

So you can rename WINCE.NLS to "wince.nls" i uploaded before.

Then replace to default wince.nls on device! and procceed soft reset.

You can get Chinese Encoding! Good Luck!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Asukal:
here it is friend! Japanese wince.nls.

You start emulator with Japanese SDK with Visual Studio.

Then go and start Remte File Viewer, find wince.nls and do Import wince.nls to Computer.

Or on Emulater vurtial Pocket PC, install the filer soft and use this filer to copy into Storage.

But not so eazy to get Visual Studio2005 to run Emulator.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] testdebug:
after rename to small capital and install wince.nls. regional setting still dont have chinese option like yours. do i have to install chinese font as well? asukal?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Asukal:
of course to display chinese, need chinese font, but its an another thing to get chinese regional option.

how did u reset it? with staylas as usual?

pls try to reset with some kinds of software instead. on wm5, seems the reset by stylas cant active some changing of system.
