Hi guys, I just got a nexus 7 2013 (Wifi only) and it came with android 4.3. I have decided not to update to Kitkat and install a custom rom instead. I read a lot of threads and they ask me to use SDK and reboot in fastboot. I have never done that and I am scared!! Is there anyway to do all this in ONE-CLICK method just like I did with my atrix HD?? I dont want to break my tablet please let me know :confused: Thanks

There are toolkits that you can use BUT you should also always know the manual way in case anything happens. Just follow the guides and YouTube videos. If you think you don't understand how to, read again till you do.

This sounds cool! Too Bad it requires at least 250 kbs stream. Since I'm in the US and the universal does not support edge, that leaves only wfi. But I could still use it at home (garage) and at work or other wifi locations. I see it runs in windows media player, does it play in full screen mode or allow use of other players?

I've ran Beanstalk 4.3.1 on this phone and loved it. Everything functioned properly and it gave decent battery life. Beanstalk has a 4.4 KitKat Rom but I haven't tried that yet. Simply because I tried a KitKat launcher a while back and didn't like the launcher. To me it looks like android has gone to a UI similar to that of iOS. And I'm not very happy about that.

Hi, Guys

My R530's HW version(Setting-About-HW version) was changed to "DingTai" last week, and I want to change it back to "R530U.01", however I could not find any available way to implement this. I tried modifing the build.prop, but it did not work at all. I also tried using adb with setprop command but it back to "DingTai" after reboot.

Seems the HW version information is stored in the RTN data and will not be changed by ROM updates. Is there anyone know how to change it persistently?

Thanks a lot!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyid:
Hello Guys,

I have not really posted much on here, but i could not find, under the Experia Z1 device, about the Locked Book Marks that Bell Canada sets up in the devices on Chrome Browser. ( If this is not in the correct section, please do move it )

My Question: Is there any way to delete the "pre-installed" Book Marks that the provider installs.

Its just like the Bloatware that Bell installs on their Android devices, but in this case, the pre-install Google Chrome browser has "pre-installed" bookmarks that i would like to remove.

I never had these on my Google account till i got this new Phone yesterday. I can long press any bookmark folders and delete them, but this "Chrome bookmarks" folder i cannot remove. It also does not sync with my Google Chrome browser on my PC that is linked to my Google account. So i cannot manage that "folder" from my PC.

So, from what i can see, i cannot find a way to remove them.

I have added a screen shot showing the "folder" that i am speaking of if anyone wonders what im talking about.

The bottom folder, "Chrome bookmarks" is the bookmarks I cannot remove.

Anyone have options for this or ideas to remove the?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksoze:
Wow... For mine I have a bunch of Sony bookmarks - also cannot be removed. Custom bookmarks that I added can be deleted (Long Press). Tried the same thing on the Sony ones and the option to delete is absent from the menu...

I was going to suggest deleting them from the Chrome Browser if your Desktop is synced up, (Other Bookmarks -> Mobile Bookmarks) - but I guess they don't show up there either.. The Sony ones don't...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyid:
Yes, any custom book marks i can modify and delete from my phone or my google account on chrome browser on the PC. but those "Bell" added favorites are not modified able at all or delete-able.

Its just annoying that every time i open the google browser app, all i see are those Fav's that are not mine!

If anyone could find a way, it would be helpful.

( I have tried apps to remove fav's, but does do not work at all. those Fav's stay there anyway )
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksoze:

Back when our devices were first updated to 4.1 and shortly after a Play Music update said that gapless playback was now a feature, I tried it on my device and it worked absolutely flawlessly. Then somewhere along the line gapless playback quit working. I'm not sure when.

Does anyone else's Evo LTE have working gapless playback in play music? Or know of a fix for this? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app as well as done some searching to no avail.

Yesterday I went to Best Buy and bought a brand new HTC one. I have not done anything to it at all. I haven't even installed any new apps on it yet. the only thing I have done is update all of the current apps that came pre installed.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaneGuise:
Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask if there was any reason to not just do a compete wipe of my phone and the SD card.

I'm trying to start all over with this phone. I have a HTC Thunderbolt that I haven't uploaded a new ROM on in almost a year.

I'm currently in Japan, but will be returning to the states for vacation and would like for my phone not to give me to much to worry about since it's been pretty out of sync for a while.

I'm not worried about losing contacts or anything (it's all up to date on my google account) but are there any system files that are saved on the SD card that are necessary?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and give any advice.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcodori:
I've done it.

I wiped the sd card not realizing it deleted the rom I was going to flash when I did that and I had nothing to flash.

Luckily I was able to Mount it with usb and put the room back on.

Worked out okay.

As long as your recovery has the Mount as usb feature you will be able to put the room back on and flash. Or you can push one with adb.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ahura999:
Hey guys, so before, when I was on 4.3, overnight I would only lose about 2 to 4 percent battery life. I would charge my Nexus 7 until 100 percent during the evening. Then I'd unplug it but not use it. I'd fall asleep and wake up about 8 hours later and the battery will be about 98 percent. This kind of battery life is outstanding and I would love for my Nexus 7 to reach this benchmark again. Last evening , I fully charged my nexus 7 (now on 4.4) and unplugged it and didn't use it. When I woke up 8 hours later, the battery was at 82 percent. I was surprised (this is the first time I noticed it. (I've been busy because I just took up driving, and it's Thanksgiving break... Plus I just received the OTA update on Thursday). Anyways I went to settings and tapped on battery, and noticed that Android OS was the culprit. I saw a forum where people stated that a factory reset would take care of the issue. I do not want to lose my app data and go through downloading and installing every single app again. Are there any troubleshooting steps I could go through to resolve my battery issue or should I just reset my Nexus 7? Thank you guys.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] sparksd:
Been struggling with the same issue. I have recently been using an app called App Ops --

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.findsdk.apppermission

It helps you find apps using wakelocks and then gives you the ability to set/clear permissions (like wakelock) on an app-by-app basis. Though I have disabled wakelock on a large number of apps and turned off synch for most things, I am still seeing occasions where battery use drops at about 3%/hour while supposedly in sleep mode. Making progress but not there yet.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] TheWerewolf:
I've been noticing similar issues and it's not consistent... I can leave it overnight and lose a few percent.. then after a day of light use - it's down to 22% whereas before that would barely get it down to 80%. Then the next day it'll be ok and stay up around 80% by the end of the day.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] muyoso:
Its probably the wifi wakelock that a lot of us have been having on Kit Kat. My router or devices on my network are waking up my tablet and phone roughly a few hundred times an hour, not allowing the devices to sleep at all. Use the beta Better Battery Stats to see what your wakelock is.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ahura999:
What exactly could we do to solve this... I mean, you'd expect the update do upgrade performance not downgrade it... Do you guys think there will ever be a fix (for non rooted users like me)... And would a factory reset help? (if any of you go ahead with the factory reset, please let me know :) ) thanks guys
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ccrows:
For those that are unhappy with KitKat, just go back to Jellybean (At least for the time being), or do what I did and install CM10.2.

IMO KitKat has too much of Google's thumbprint on it for my liking, and I've yet to see anything positive - including performance. Even the emoji keyboard is useless to me since I already use a 3rd party keyboard.

On top of that, I was having too many 3rd party app issues as well. (I know that's not Google's fault)

Yesterday I decided that I had enough of KK, installed CM10.2, and now everything works perfectly.

IDK IMO KitKat might be the latest, but it's not the greatest...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mertzi:
No root needed for app ops, its not really an app, more of a shortcut to the feature which Google don't want to make official yet. But it's a part of android and with 4.4 they have included the ability to disable keep awake for almost every app. It does wonders for battery life. I got 3,5 days with 11 hours screen on time. The development of android has become too fragmented so there's no consistency any longer, that's why most battery drainage nowadays is caused by Google's own apps. And if you disable keep awake for eg Facebook messenger you will still get notifications, even if the tablet is in deep sleep. So i honestly don't understand what the keep awake function is for. I have disabled it for all apps, Google services, Google play store + the sub stores like play books, games etc and android system. I haven't had any problems.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ahura999:
Is this normal? (brightness is maintained at half) what exactly is "Android os"... Obviously it's kit kat but what uses it? And what can I turn off via app Ops to reduce android os like it was on 4.3?

You've never worked in IT huh? LOL

Also (just off the top of my head) go ask Motorola Milestone users how they liked their Froyo upgrade. 9 months they waited for that upgrade, and when it arrived it crippled their phone.

Yes the "idea" of doing an upgrade is to make things better, but in the "real world" there's a reason why many times doing a "Rollback" is the better option...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mertzi:
Thats not normal, that's bad developing. I had the same drainage. I have Location, vibration and keep awake disabled for android system with no consequences but i havent used the gps since so it might affect that. You can disable keep awake for everything except mobile data. If you see "never used" then you can probably leave it on. The standby time i get now is sick.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] stealthj:

[MENTION=5293077]ahura999[/MENTION] I noticed that when I was watching a streamed movie (I think via Flixster) that the google "media Server" function was running continuously (keep awake time was 8 hours). I forced stopped it and now it behaves normally. I did not go back and try running Flixster again to see if this was the root of my problem.

I'm not suggesting Flixster is the issue per se but that was the only app I ran that should have caused the mediaserver service to run that day.
