[Nexus 7 (2013) General] NovaSlim:
An invalid reason? If you are going to root & flash ROMs, Nexus 7 is a lot easier to unlock, root & have a far larger developer community . Without rooting or flashing Nexus 7 comes with AOSP android & access to a larger app database(including custom launchers) vs FireOS and Amazon appstore. If that doesn't mean Nexus 7 is more open/customizable than Kindle Fire then maybe you should re-examine your definition of openess?

p.s Go into a Nexus forum and proclaim a Nexus is no more open than a Kindle is a good example of "trying to pick a fight".
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] finalhit:
You're right, having a more accessible bootloader does make the Nexus 7 more open. I will yield that point. I don't know why I said that. My original point, and still maintain that it's no more open or closed as the Samsung and htcs.

Also that the size of the app library does not contribute to the openess. If this was true, the iOS ecosystem is more open than google's.

Lastly, disagreeing with people is not picking a fight. The reason I'm in the n7 forum is because I own one. Check my post history. I didn't just wander over here to troll you guys. I simply disagree that fireos is less open than your everyday android devices (nexus, Google and development editions excluded).

I actually don't want a Kindle Fire. I do somewhat regret getting my n7 because I find I don't really need a tablet... But that's neither here nor there.

For me, the Kindles main target is selling Amazon content, I prefer an open device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] iamezio:
Funny .. but thats actually the whole point of the nexus devices ... google sells them for cheap (as much as they can without losing money) to push the ecosystem..

Their main thing is making its ecosystem as big as they can because its the ecosystem(every internet based product they sell) that generating profit for them , as long as they not losing money on the nexus line they can sell it for 1$ if it would be an option , not because they want to , but because they can ..

Other company's like samsung don't really have an ecosystem , there money comes from its hardware (hardware they sell to castumers, oem parts to apple and other company's)

I think the Google prefers getting money from 3 years of showing you ads then one time 250$ that 1/3 of it is taxes and profit margins for the store/shipping and etc

But on iOS you can find apps from other company's ecosystem .. like google, amazon and microsoft(xbox music) , unlike this kindle .

I for one am sick.

I hate this thing it is a pos(N7/2 32gb wifi )

.I messed up bought mine new in box from an individual because it was sold out everywhere local. So I am stuck with it.

I have had nothing but problems with GPS wifi bluetooth regardless of rom or settings

I finally reflashed PA then installed.the GPS patch and it is working but BT is broken.

The speakers are worse than my fossil DROID X2, the buttons aggravating to find and now this Kindle pops up with better specs for the same money.

With the hardware the Kindle packs you can bet the devs will pick it up quickly.

Anyone interested in a couple days old FHD Nexus...

I was really surprised Asus didn't use sd600 cuz it was out in time. Yes Im a little peeved cuz s4pro can't even touch sd800 but I'm a flashaholic so still happy with n7. N5 will kick butt with subsidised price.so still some nexus hope and if there smart new n10 will have 800

Only thing I regret is not waiting till the new nexus 10 comes out lol
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] iamezio:
One thing you should know .. is that the "Snapdragon S4 Pro" in the nexus 7 is actually "rebranded" S600 with lower clocks of 1.5GHz vs 1.7GHz on"normal" S600 (like the HTC One) or 1.9GHz on the "good quality" ones like the SGS4 uses.

The original S4 Pro uses Krait 200 cpue core + adreno 320 , this "new" S4 Pro is Krait 300 + Adreno 320 just like the S600 .

So for example antutu scores 21000 on the N7 2013 vs 25000 on the S4(with have 1.9GHz S600 ) , the n4 got only 15000 , so its not the same SoC.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ikazuchi:
No, in fact, I'll probably buy a new one for myself (using a family/free4all nex7fhd tab here haha). Sure the hardware specs of the new kindle is awesome, but it's not everything. Also, the new kindle looks f**king ugly (like seriously). While one can wish that Google/Asus release a slightly updated version (like a second 2nd point 5), the current one is still more than good enough.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] swisstourist:
Doesn't make so much difference. Soon tablets will all be the same .

We won't be asking any more about speed...like netbook. Who cares of netbook?

I mean performance will soon level off, like digital camera went from 2 megapixel to 16 or more in 10 years Now who cares if you camera is 16 or 18?

Soon all tablet will have the same performance . What they can improve is weight, battery, and price instead of resolution as you don't see the pixels anymore.

It's seem now the speed effectiveness has been reached for normal users outside of games.

So whatever you buy, n7 or Kindle.... Same **** !
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ravynmagi:
Last year I went with a Fire HD over a Nexus 7 (2012). I had the Nexus 7 first, but was disappointed with the build quality (the loose glass on the left side). I did a few returns, but wasn't satisfied with any of them and also underwhelmed with the display quality and speakers. So ended up with a Fire HD. I am a Amazon Prime subscriber, so the negatives of the OS were somewhat offset by some of the perks it has for Prime users. I was pretty happy with the Fire HD. Though I did miss the narrow portrait bezel and lighter weight of the Nexus 7.

This year I got a Nexus 7 again. This time I'm totally satisfied with the build quality, display, and speakers. I am probably still going to get one of the Fire HDX tablets. But if it was an either or situation, I'd definitely be happier with the Nexus 7 2013. Honestly the Fire HDX is probably one of the ugliest tablets I've seen in awhile. Not sure why Amazon went with this weird Stealth Fighter looking angular design. Also surprised Amazon didn't go with thin portrait bezels that make the tablet more comfortable for one handed reading (it's a Kindle after all). I'm sure the Fire HDX will be really nice, but I think the comfort design of the Nexus 7 is much better and it's better looking too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Hnk1:
NO WAY

Would they be PURE ANDROID ?

Would they get timely UPDATES like we do ?

Would they be supported for updates for a LONG time ?

Would there be as many ROMS/ KERNELS support from as many developers ?

Would they be as battery friendly as our Nexus? Google is working hard to make Nexus as battery friendly as possible !

This is the best pure android experience ever and Kindles would be modified to be a book reader more than a day to day tablet. I know applications would work fine but I am sure there will be limitations which must be taken down by rooting or some tutorials.

The specification are a bit better but really, we have enough juice and power to run all high end games and apps without any lag at all. Plus, we be getting KITKAT next month!!! So soon ??? We be first to be using it and other would have to wait a few months before they taste KITKAT :P

I do not think, Kindle would get any more updates than just one !

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] stanglifemike:
I don't think anyone here in this forum would rather have a Kindle!! If they do then they should sell their N7 FHD and buy an iPad an get it over with!! If I wanted to be told how my tablet should look an function, then I woulda bought an iPad! Sure you can root the Kindle to change its looks, but you can also jailbreak an iPad to change its looks as well. That said, my N7 FHD is rooted as well as my Asus Infinity, Note 2, Evo LTE, and Evo 3D. I root because I like modifying my devices and playing around with them. You shouldn't HAVE to root or jailbreak a device just to be able to perform basic functions and/or basic aesthetic changes though! Not if you actually expect me to pay for it anyway.

I think that Kindle does have its place in the Android tablet market, and that's for elderly people or children who need/want things more simplified for them. Same thing with Apple phones and tablets, they are fine for people who don't know much about electronics and need a much simpler and basic device that does everything for you.

I think anyone who wishes they'd have bought a Kindle instead of a Nexus tablet is the same as wishing you would have bought an iPad instead of a Nexus tablet!! I realize Kindle is Android based, but it's still locked down like how Apple does their iPad. Maybe if I was old and wore aPad(diapers) then I'd buy an iPad, hahaha :D. If someone actually prefers a Kindle over a Nexus, then they have no business with a Nexus to begin with!!

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Guardsix:
Well, I returned my N 7 (2013) after about 10 days. I reviewed some reports about the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 and they were all good to great. I wanted a larger screen and less weight than my iPad mini. I got more than that with my kindle Fire HDX. I am an Amazon Prime subscriber and buy a lot of stuff through Amazon. Best Buy didn't have a 64GB model and didn't know when they would ever get them so back to Amazon I went. I had my Fire HDX 8.9 64GB in two days later! A lot cheaper than a 64GB iPad Air!

I still have my OG N7, so I can play pure Android when I want but for pure entertainment, I'll stick with my Kind Fire HDX 8.9!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] duckredbeard:
Ok, this has me really scratching my head. I use ClockworkMod recovery to make backups. When backups are made, they go into a folder called clockworkmod/backup and get a name that is a date and time stamp. For some reason, the date is in the past. Lately, my backups get file names like "1970-5-16.10.40.36". Not a big deal...I now rename them as soon as they are made.

Here's the wierd part. I use FX file explorer and the stock file app. If I search for files/folders that contain "1970" I only get 2 hits. I can manually navigate to the folders that contain those backup files. They are real. If I go into ClockworkMod recovery and do a restore, I can choose from internal (default) or I can choose from the external SD card (the microSD card that can be removed). If I decide to go with the external SD card, I have one backup to choose from. I've seen that file on the card. It's there. If I choose to restore from the internal I have 4 to choose from. One that I have seen using file management and 3 others that I cannot find on my card. They have the same file name protocol as the others. All start with "1970". According to CWM recovery, they are in the "sdcard/clockworkmod/backup" folder. Don't confuse that with the external SD card, because the one on the removable microSD card is in "external_sd/clockworkmod/backup" according to CWM.

I have successfully restored to two of those backup files that cannot be found (by file management) on the SD or internal storage. Yes I have "show hidden" selected in the file management apps.

I no longer need those phantom backups, yet I cannot delete them, as they cannot be found by file management. I know they are there. I have proven that by restoring two of them. Backups that I have on my device that can be seen by file management apps take up about 2GB each, so I have about 6GB of storage consumed by files that I cannot delete!

And now the math problem. FX file explorer has a feature where you can sort files/folders by size. My internal storage is showing 9.6GB capacity with 1.3GB free. So I've used 8.3 GB. Easy math. When I analyze the internal storage, my largest folder is the "Android" folder and it is 1.4GB, which shows as 68% of the 8.3GB used. "DCIM" takes up another 25% at 523.2MB. All other folders are less than 1%. The point is that if I take my top two file sizes (1.4GB + 532.2MB = 1.932GB) and they make up 94% of my used 8.3GB, then something is not right. 94% of 8.3GB is 7.802GB. Now take that 1.932GB that is shown and add the (presumed ~2GB per backup of the 3 phantom files) 6GB of lost files...you get...about 7.8GB. Are you with me here?

WTF? Again... I know the files are on the device. I can use CWM to navigate to them. I can restore them and have had no issues using those restore points.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] duckredbeard:
Here's an update. I have plenty of space on the removable microSD card. I created a folder called "stuff from the internal storage" and copied all of the files and folders from internal storage to it. While the copy was happening (using FX File Explorer) it showed it was copying 2GB of data. That is about right if you look at the math above. After copying the files, I deleted everything from the internal storage except the "Android" folder, again using FX File Explorer.

With "show hidden" selected, and having deleted everything else from the internal storage, FX is now saying I have used 9.6 GB with 1.6GB free. And the only folders in the internal storage are the "Android" folder which shows to be 1.4GB and 2 other folders that generated after a reboot. These numbers jive with the stock file management app also.

My next post will be screen shots of FX showing these files and their usage.

Browse using system (root) to /storage/emulated/0 and see if that shows any extra files or if you can then modify files.

I recommend backing up your important files to an external SD card or computer or cloud and then physically remove your external sdcard and go to your devices' recovery (cwm) and format the internal sdcard from the mounts menu

Then you can selectively restore your files from your backup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] duckredbeard:
I found that I could delete those extra backups from within CWM recovery. In the future I will back up to my removable sd card so the files can be renamed.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BrettS:
I have two IMAP accounts configured in the messaging app in my Jasjar. They're both set to automatically poll (I've tried a number of intervals from 5 minutes to 30 minutes). However, WM5 on my Jasjar only seems to automatically poll whichever account is active. If I go to the inbox of my personal email account then I'll never get new emails in my work account. If I'm in the inbox of my work account I'll never get new emails in my personal account.

This is my first PPC device, but it's my understanding that this is how things worked in WM 2003 SE and earlier, so I figured that it was the same in WM5. However, several people with Imate K-Jams (also WM5) are reporting on howard forums that their devices will automatically poll all of their accounts no matter which one is active. I've tried deleting and reconfiguring my email accounts and even hard resetting and reconfiguring and I still can't get this to work. I'm beginning to wonder if there is a difference in the messaging app between the K-Jam and the Jasjar.

Is anyone else with a Jasjar (or other universal) able to automatically poll more than one IMAP or POP3 account?

Thanks,

Brett
