Is there any definite price on this pda/phone? Any ideas?

I for one, want it to be under the $700 range. What do you guys think?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] saldous:
You might be lucky. I would like it to be £99 but no chance of that!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] musawi:
Haha, what I am trying to say is what is the maximum you would like to pay for this device? (no plan, just the pda/phone)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
O2 have said free to £229.99, so add on say £160 or so for whatever their cheapest tarrif is for a year and you've got your max price.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] musawi:
711 dollars. I can live with that. Where did you get those figures anyway?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xda_dev:
Price of HTC

It cost the company about $10.00USD or less to manufracture the plastic, metal, and LCD screens in a assembly line. The cost is generated by what people or "willing" to pay for the technology.

Most people will find this as a laptop replacement device. My business I carry a laptop and do powerpoint presentations a lot to prospects in Cafe and restaurants at times. I would easily pay $1,000.00USD for a device that can replace my laptop and my cell phone in one.

HTC will most likely cost $799.99+ 823.249 EUR :idea:

[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Hello everyone,

I just wanted to share a recent modification done to my Nexus 4. Like many people my rear glass basically spontaneously cracked in a spiderweb pattern across the entire surface of the rear glass. Frustrated I looked and looked for a replacement back possibly made of plastic or some other material...anything but glass!

Unfortunately I could not find what I was after, so I ordered a Nexus 4 rear housing with glass. Once it arrived and installed everything was great except I was constantly worried about the glass shattering again. Now that I had the original back off I could experiment a bit. It took me quite a while to chip all the glass shards away. Using a heat gun softened the adhesive and made it a lot easier. Also the wireless charging coil gave extra frustration to the glass removal, as its flexible and quite fragile.

Eventually all the glass was removed. At first I was thinking of going with wood, but after working with a veneer of Brazilian rosewood I realized that the wood was so thin that it was going to be a real pain to work with to get a precision form.

I really like the look of carbon fiber so I searched and found a piece of carbon fiber laminate 1/32" thick (.030" when measured). It came 3" wide and 12" long. I rough cut the basic shape with a band saw and then sanded the edge down to a 2.445" width. I then used a fine hand file to create the arched corners and ends. Eventually I got the perfect shape and then used a carbide end mill to create the holes for camera, flash and speaker holes. I also used a bit larger end-mill to make an inset on the rear side of the camera hole to drop in a new lens protector so that it would end up flush and not interfere with the camera once I installed it.

Finally I used some really nice double sided 3M 468 MP adhesive to bond the new back to the housing.

I was curious about heat dispersion, so I ran the phone through a few stress tests with both the glass and the laminate and the laminate actually came back with a slightly cooler result. So basically without strict data collecting I'd say my concern about heat is null.

I was really pleased with the results and wanted to share. Photo's don't quite do it justice like seeing in person. As you shift the phone in light there is a very dynamic weaved pattern reflecting similar but more intensely that the original glass. It's not as scratch resistant as the original glass but that was not exactly impervious to scratches either. I'm happy knowing there is basically zero chance of shattering. believe me I tried on a scrap piece.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] gdekatt:
That looks really nice! Be aware that carbon fiber will block/attenuate some signals like WiFi.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Thanks!

Hmm, I'll do a comparison next to my coworkers Nexus and find out if there's a difference.

Edit: I was not able to notice any discernable difference in signal strength on WiFi or the cell radio in comparison. Basically identical to the non-modded Nexus in signal strength and speed tests. Bluetooth works as it should. I have not tested NFC yet but I will when I get the opportunity.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] 22sl22:
Really like what you've done with your nexus 4. Only thing is, when it broke in the first place, why didn't you just put a dbrand vinyl on the back? They look amazing, fit perfectly and it's not too expensive.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Thanks. I did put something similar over it but unfortunately there was a crack in the glass right above the camera lens and light would refract through causing photos to come out terrible. Having kids and a new baby just arriving, I can't live without those spontaneous photos when needed on the spot. Otherwise I would have left it with the skin.

Oh and the carbon fiber laminate was only $10.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] [Antonio]:
Very cool!!! I like it a lot :o It would be even better to write "nexus" on the rear in the carbon, but i think it could cost a lot.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] JoshP84:
Where did you get the carbon fiber laminate?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
http://www.mcmaster.com/#8194k52/=oaipze
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Covart:
If you plan to keep the phone a while, or resell it, keep the carbon fiber out of the sunlight. Unless they put some sort of UV protection on it? It will fade otherwise.

Looks great though. I have always been a fan of CF. I def give you a +10 for the project.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Thanks. It won't be spending much time in direct sunlight, but I think I'll do a test with a scrap piece and leave it outside and see how it holds up.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rebj2007:
I think you should make more and sell just the carbon fiber part.

SENT FROM MY RAGING NEXUS⁴ ?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
If I had access to a water jet cutter I would definitely do that. Doing it manually by hand takes a lot of time and would drive the cost up more than I think people would be willing to spend.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] anirudh412:
I get a hard on every time I see carbon fiber :p Is there a glossy coat over it or is it just the CF so that you can feel the texture? I am quite curious to see the radio reception test results. If they turn out to be minor, please let me know how much you would charge to make one for me. If only I had such skills :(

No, just no! Real CF shall not be replaced with vinyls. NEVER!!!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] 22sl22:
Haha, I just said vinyl because it would be cheaper and less time consuming than doing the whole replacement thing, but the real CF does look really nice :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Generally in a carbon fiber laminate the weave is sandwiched between layers of epoxy to hold its form. This provides a smooth semi-glossy surface which also adds to the optical effect of the light bending as your viewing angle changes. There is a very, very subtle texture to it but its mostly smooth in characteristic.

So far I have not noticed a difference in radio reception, I will continue testing. If I had a second nexus with me it would be easy. There are so many environmental factors that make it nearly impossible to compare any current results with the previous glass back.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] anirudh412:
Yeah I know about the epoxy. I have had car parts molded out of CF. However, some case manufacturers provide an extra glossy layer over the finished product (which I am not a big fan of). But it seems its not the case here.

I am wondering what would happen if the laminate were to be glued to the glass directly. Any ideas?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] perfoliate:
Definitely possible. It would just thicken the phone by about 1/32" which would probably make it a little less than even with the official bumper edge. I would bevel the outer edge in that case so it smooths out with the edge of the phone. I used a rubber based back like this at first with a nice grip to it. It worked great. The only issue i had was was a crack over my camera lens so the glass ultimately needed to be removed.

They make a special epoxy glue specifically for this but the double sided adhesive I used works great. Its more of a gummy adhesive than a tape so it conforms a bit and has great yield strength.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] adrian089:
I'm impressed, looks very clean. Makes more sense than spending money on another glass back.

So, I tried flashing the f93 kernel but the zip i tranfered was bad and i can't boot. I have TWRP on the e975 and I have already tried the adb sideload but it doesn't want to load or my computer doesn't recognize it. How can I fix this?

I'm thankful for all the help I can get :D

What's the error you're getting on your computer?

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brugernavn:
Hi!, me and my wife both have LTE Note 2's and we love them!.

But my wifes Note has been wierd the last week or so, we live in Denmark and our provider is Telia, therefore roaming costs money!, and should only activate when we cross the border to germany etc.

The phone think its roaming even when there is EDGE/3G coverage in my livingroom!? :(.

You can see my problem in the video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGLfEuAXvEI

Btw. MY phone have no roaming problem, and never had.

my wife is ready to get rid of the phone because of this problem, and i really dont want to see that happening.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LuMe96:
Hi,

Can't see from the video but did you check the active APN?

Here in France we have a couple of Virtual Network Operators buying air time from one of the "real" network operators. So basically we have a lot of different APNs for same MCC & MNC. Sometimes the bad APN gets selected resulting in roaming.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dead soul:
go to SETTINGS, under WIRELESS and NETWORKS select MORE SETTINGS then MOBILE NETWORK then DATA ROAMING go to NETWORK OPERATORS and search for your network carrier just to be sure..if it's still a problem maybe try another SIM card or take your phone to your operators customer care...because this is definitely not a phone issue.....

alternatively you can backup all the data of the phone and do a factory reset just incase it's some hidden settings causing this within the phone

I was referring to the Access Point Names that can be found under Settings / More Settings / Mobile Networks. Go there and have a look which ones are listed and, most importantly, which one is selected.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomhurst:
My nexus 7 keeps lagging (30 sec+), crashing, restarting, just general crappyness.

I went over to the Asus Product Registration and it wont accept the serial number that appears in the About Tablet section.

So apparently there's a different one on the box. But I can't find the box!

I just pulled the back off of my nexus 7 and there's like 5 stickers with long numbers on, but none of them say SSN and none of them look like C70 or whatever I'm reading that other people have.

How can I find it?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stayRooted:
I currently have a galaxy S4 but I have been thinking about getting a tablet for some time now and the new nexus 7 seems to be the perfect choice. The only thing is that I don't know why I would need one. The only reasons I can think of getting one are: always getting android updates immediately, bigger screen, more fun to play games or watch videos. And apparently that is not enough to convince my wife why I need one. I was hoping to get some insight on what you use your tablet for and basically to convince me that it is worth getting. Btw I have never owned a tablet. Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] con100:
I use mine to read, browse the Internet and watch videos. I also really didn't need a tablet when I got the 1st Nexus. But I'm glad I did. I use it every day and I barley touch my laptop now.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] railed:
More portable than a laptop. Lightweight. Great for watching movies on the go (ie: plane trips, hotel rooms, kids). I use mine to browse the web, shop, watch netflix, read xda forums, pretty much anything i used to do on my phone. Go TEXANS :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Kookas:
What I'm using it for: forums, web browsing, watching YouTube videos, reading books, reading the news, listening to music, as a map.

I've only had it for a day now and it''s the college summer holidays, so I haven't needed it for much else, but when term restarts I'll also be using AnkiDroid flashcards to revise and Timetables to manage my lessons and homework. Will probably also use it for some of the homework itself, especially in Computing.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] onicas:
the honest answer is, there won't be anything additional the tablet could do over the S4. actually, the S4 has a lot more bells and whistles to it than the nexus 7.

the main need factor comes in is if you spend a lot of time on your phone, your neck and eyes probably hurt. a larger screen tablet will fix this.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
Mine is great for work and remote desktop. It also helps ease your phones battery. My phone is just for texting, emails, calls, and WiFi hotspots. All my surfing, playing, watching, reading, etc is on my N7.

It is a nice companion but if you don't know what to use it for, it will eventually become a desk piece.

I like to use mine for Netflix. If my woman wants to watch a show, I can watch something else. My kid does this too when we watch a movie he isn't interested in.

Lots of uses, you just gotta use it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] conan1600:
If you didn't have the new Nexus 7 you might wander outside. While wandering outside you might walk down to the cliffs by the beach. while standing on the edge of the cliffs at the beach a high flying duck might fall from the sky and hit you in the leg. When the duck hits you in the leg you might lose your balance and fall off the cliff into the ocean water below. While trying to stay afloat in the ocean a whale may be passing by and swallow you. Because you taste bad the whale might then spit you out of his blow hole where you might land on the beach in the middle of a pack of mating crabs which of course would rightly enrage the crabs who would then latch onto your nether regions. You could have been warm and dry snuggled up on the couch with your new Nexis 7 watching Kung Fu movies on You Tube.

Don't end up with with a raging case of crabs. Buy the new Nexus 7 and stay high and dry.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] aerdely:
I tried a couple different out. First Asus transformer tf300t, was great but had ghost touch/ touch screen issues. So after reading so much about og nexus 7 I decided to try that was great but always missed the 10 inch screen, that's always been a plus about the tf300t besides it not being bad hardware other than the touch screen issues. After reading about the n7 2013 came out gave it a month to read some reviews but eventually decided to take the plunge and glad I did. Other than the minor issues been having since the last update which will more than likely be eventually be taken care of by Google or rooting otherwise I've never looked back. Don't even miss the 10 screen on the transformer. New n7 has been well worth it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] lwfb:
I have a Nexus 7 (2013) to replace my OG 2012 N7 (which I passed down to my sister) and a Nexus 10 that my company bought as a Christmas gift.

I use the 7 for light browsing, reading books and news, YouTube and occasional Netflix.

I use the 10 for heavy browsing, Netflix, YouTube, reading magazines/comics and occasional games.

I find the 7 more comfortable for reading books, the 10 more comfortable for watching video.

My tablets are primarily media consumption devices, my phone is a communication/social device and my laptop is all work and PC gaming in my free time since it's a pretty well spec'd piece of kit. I've managed to find different uses for all of my devices so they all have their place.

Basically, when I'm home I use my 7 for things I'd normally use my phone for when I'm not home. Also, I use my 10 for things I use to use a laptop for (such as browsing). I've got a system going that insures all my devices serve a purpose.

You just need to figure out if you have a use for a tablet and if that use can justify the cost. I love my tablets, but only because I've figured out how to utilize them in a way that fits my needs.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Deeco7:
I was in the same situation, but ending up getting one for the family to use for general use as it's better to get out than a laptop and when guests come around they are able to use it too. But, for some reason I convinced myself just yesterday to click and collect the New Nexus 7 for myself from Currys/PC World, making an hours journey by bus so I could have it early in my hands, but the level of excitement dropped for me for some reason.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] IXChicharitoXI:
This is the first tablet I've ever purchased, I bought it about two weeks ago. I also struggled to find out why I would need one. I mean my galaxy s 3 could browse, twitter, YouTube, and run games. Why buy a tablet?

Anyways, I gave in and I'm in love. A phone can do what a tablet can but the screen and size makes it such a great experience to use when you're at home. With the app tablet talk you could use the Nexus to receive phone calls and text messages and respond to them.

You could almost say it's like having an 18" and 65" TV. Yeah, the 18" can show the same thing as the 65", but the 65" will be a much better experience.

Plus this thing is very portable. I could see myself using it at school.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] RKight:
I started with a Viewsonic G Tablet a few years ago. I liked the concept but it was just too damn big and I found myself using my laptop more than the tablet. I sold it and eventually bought a Coby Kyros. I liked the form factor better but hated the crappy resistive touch screen. I sold it and bought a first gen Kindle Fire. I liked it but it was a hassle to put a decent ROM on it and it felt limited even with Cyanogenmod installed. I sold it and bought the first gen Nexus 7. For the first time, I had a tablet I truly loved. I found myself using it every single day, and neglecting my laptop more and more. When the 2013 N7 was released, I jumped on it and passed my 2012 to my fiancée. The only things I've used my laptop for, in the past few weeks, were to root my tablet, download things for my tablet, and use bit torrent to download some episodes of a certain zombie show. I love this thing and really look at my phone as a secondary device for texting or doing the things I would normally do on my tablet when I don't have it with me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
Sucks about those crappy Tabs. The ViewSonic G wasn't really bad but the screen sucked and it was big. The Coby is absolutely a joke for anything other then a casual toilet companion.

The Fire was the same as the Nook for me. Really nice device but it just barely functioned on CM and was dodgy at best. My son used it for a while for just a few games and Netflix, which worked well.

Although I've dabbled with cheaper tabs, I've always personally owned iPads, Asus Transformers, N7's, etc. BIG difference between a $59 BigLot special and a $499 tablet. Although most people don't realize that.
