Check Expansys USA -- they have the 'Lava Grey' (i.e.: black) version for $210, with free basic shipping. 'Natural aluminum' (i.e.: silver) version is s'thing like $30 more. I'm posting this reply in a hurry, so no links -- sorry.

n.b.: Expansys does not specify China (PRC) or Taiwan model, but it's easy to conflate the two countries as 'China'. I asked Expansys to check stock; they sent a fresh device photo, showing /all/ Google services installed.
[Nokia N1] rubi76:
Thank you for asking.

I just ordered mine because you asked and they replied.... Google Service does make a difference.

I wish they would release the official cover already and it would be perfect!
[Nokia N1] mrfomoco:
Hey, you're welcome! But then, I had to ask -- if it's the right model, that's a deal I couldn't pass up.

Do a solid and tap the 'Thanks' button for me, wouldya? Just starting out here, so I need the rep. :)

Ditto.
[Nokia N1] sunnyb7532:
Expansys staff person posted a comment that it is "from China and does have Google Play."

I'm not sure what that means but I've ordered one and will find out.
[Nokia N1] rubi76:
Mine will come tomorrow... I will let you know...
[Nokia N1] rubi76:
I just received my n1 from Expansys.

I confirm that it does have the Google play store.

It came in Chinese but I changed the language.

The android version is 5.0.1 but it asked me to update the software as soon as I turned it on.. Downloading now.. Hopefully it's 5.1...

[Nokia N1] sunnyb7532:
My N1 from Expansys has Build number A5FM401. Neither the tablet nor the retail box nor the packaging was shrink wrapped. Is there a reliable way to determine whether it had the TW version with Google Play straight from the factory or whether the software was altered after it left the factory?
[Nokia N1] mrfomoco:
Well, I can say that I'm quite happy with the Taiwanese N1 I bought from Expansys USA. It arrived brand-new in factory packaging and after the usual set up (plus some extra time required to get around the initial language barrier) works great...best $210 I've ever spent on an Android device. :)

---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------

Here's what I can tell you, from personal experience.:

• A5FM401 is the factory-installed build for Nokia's Taiwan release of the N1. Shortly after first login, the device will download several OTAs, culminating in Android 5.0.2 (A5FM51C).

• With my N1, the shrinkwrap had been carefully cut likely to open the box for inspection as noted in Expansys' catalog (e.g.: to check for damage and/or a US-type power plug).

• The tablet itself still wore the factory's wrapping. I carefully examined the polythene under bright lights (think C.S.I.: Android !), but saw absolutely no signs of tampering.

• From talking to several people who own the Chinese (PRC) model, nobody in their right mind would go to the trouble of re-flashing one to make it look like the Taiwanese part.

BTW: when I asked Expansys to verify Google's apps, s'body in the warehouse kindly sent a pic of a freshly unboxed/booted Nokia N1. Maybe that's the one you got?

Hope this helps a bit.

---------- Post added at 09:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

I'd like to hear your results, for sake of curiosity. Meanwhile, mine stopped at Android v5.0.2 -- I'm told this is the current final release for Nokia's Taiwanese N1.

To date, only their Chinese (PRC) part has been upgraded to 5.1.1, but since that OTA rolled out just a few weeks ago, I guess there's still hope for the rest of us. :)

Good reviews, so far, plus I figure you can't go far wrong for $10.
[Nokia N1] rubi76:
I am happy with the Expansys unit as well, I was debating between the N1 and the new Asus zenpad 8.0 s which has the same processor and slightly better specs but costs more.. The N1 is much better looking and has stock Android which is a big plus.

I hope they will keep on updating it, eventually to Marshmallow, since after all it's stock Android...

Great tablet, I just wish I could find the official cover that doesn't seem to be available anywhere...

---------- Post added at 08:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 PM ----------

Let us know! Take some pics!
[Nokia N1] sunnyb7532:
It's very helpful - thank you. The info about the build number suggests that the software is original. Someone here said their tablet was rooted, but I suspect they were mistaken. I missed the part in Expansys' catalog stating that they open the boxes for inspection, that makes it much less suspicious.

The tablet is impressive for the price. Build quality, thinness, performance, wireless specs, battery life. I guess that's why I'm questioning - because it looks like it falls into the "too good to be true" category.

Would love to buy a docking station that takes full advantage of the Nokia N1, whatever it offers from the Type C port out of the box or can be hacked. This press release for a dock reference design specifically mentions the N1 tablet, but I suspect because it was one of the earliest devices and not because the dock is optimized for the N1.

[Nokia N1] mrfomoco:
Happy to hear that! If you have a minute, please do me a favor and click that official XDA 'thanks' button (below), would you? Just getting started here and I could use the cred points. :)

Yeah, I'd say he's simply wrong. And I'm a careful guy -- first thing I did after I got my new N1 running was to install AIDA64 (a free HW-analysis app; look for it in the Play Store). It confirmed that the device was not rooted.

Expansys append something like that ('Note that the box will be opened...') for a large number of listings. I guess we can assume they get their stock from a wide variety of sources and under varying circumstances.

LOL I know, right? This thing is just astonishing value for money -- a super device at an unbeatable price. Except for the disappointing camera and (so far) lack of Android v5.1.1, I'm 110% happy with my purchase.

Yep, that would be a neat accessory, for sure. Well, you never know; it's pretty clear Nokia see their future with Android devices, so maybe we can look forward to an upgraded 'N2' tablet, using the same shell.

---------- Post added at 05:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 AM ----------

Couldn't agree more.

The N1 is delightful in it's simplicity, with vanilla Android and elegant design. Nokia took the iPad Mini's basic look and improved it; rounding those famously 'chamfered edges' gives much better feel in the hand.

Oh, for sure! Planning to do exactly that, soon as it arrives.

Meanwhile, I bought a leather 'sleeve' protector, originally designed for the iPad Mini 2/3...a gorgeous piece of leathercraft, that looks and feels 3 times more costly than it was. I'll post pics and info on that, as well.

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] sixshooterz:
I'd use TWRP if I were you and save yourself some headaches. From my understanding, CWM is hit or miss on our beloved Note 3.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
First what version of KK where you on when you rooted your device ? Anyway pull battery then reinstall battery. Boot into download mode, then odin flash the version of KK you had before you rooted your phone.

Chances are the device won't boot. DON'T PANIC !!! Happenes all the time, just pull the battery again. Boot into download mode again, and odin flash the stock KK again it should boot the second time.

Once you get it to boot up, check and see what version of KK you are running and make the kernel , modem, and bootloader are the same.

At this point l would odin flash it again to make sure you have a clean install. Now you can root and install a custom recovery. I use TWRP.

IF you have any questions just click rom flashing basics in my signature.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a car dock for my Nexus 6 similar to the pro clip or this fix2car mount http://www.holdersandmounts.co.uk/f...on-mount-dash-mount-with-usb-car-charger.html[1]

Basically my criteria are that I want to be able to take the phone in and out of the mount without having to attach the USB cable after. I want the USB cable to be fixed and the phone simply slides in to it.

The pro clip would cost me 150$+ and the fix2car one I linked would run me close to 70$. I'm looking for something about half that price.

Hope you guys can help!

Thanks
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
0 replies on XDA and on reddit, something tells me i'm about to drop a hundred bucks on a car mount... AGAIN!

PSA to anyone thinking about it: DO NOT get the airdock 2, it's a piece of poop and the phone falls off constantly.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] JimSmith94:
If you must have the fixed plug, you could hack one in place with some JB Weld. A lot of guys did just that back in the "old" days.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] three west:
Or suguru, that stuff works great for something like this. BTW, my airdock works great.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EugeneR:
If you would like to charge your phone in a car dock without having to attach USB each time why don't you get the QI charging dock? It is about $35-$40 here in US, probably about same in UK. And will work with non-bulky case.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
welllllllll the reason why im trying to avoid a QI charging dock (which btw is not a make or model but the technology, can you specify which model you're referring to?) is because i bought this neato quick charge usb lighter thingy and i'd like to be able to use quick charge..... wireless QI charging is pretty slow and when having the screen on, and steaming music, and using maps for nav, it doesn't actually gain any charge!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
sugru is 22 american. add shipping, conversion to canadian dollar, and duties and it comes out to a lot :( thanks for the suggestion, though.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
i think i am going with this:

http://www.lightinthebox.com/imobi4...ger-for-motorola-google-nexus-6_p2642248.html
[Nexus 6 Accessories] JimSmith94:
Nice find! I didn't know anyone made one like that for our Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EugeneR:
Well, I am doing the same, streaming and navigating, with Nexus 6 in the dock, using 2.1A USB lighter thingy and it charges.

I am also aware QI is a technology and not a model. There are quite few of those. I am using this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N4H1R1M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s01
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
the problem is that QI will bottleneck your charging. using a quickcharge usb lighter thing will work via a cable but not through QI!

QI will support up to 15 watts of charging in the future, it was actually announced like a couple of weeks ago or something, so future models will support quick charging
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EugeneR:
I have quick charger at work and at home. In the car I need the dock I can use with minimum effort and without connecting/disconnecting USB frequently
[Nexus 6 Accessories] uicnren:
Curious to know if you got the holder yet?

From the pictures on the site, it appears that one of the claws on the top lands directly on the power and/or volume buttons.

Would like to know if it interferes with proper operation?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] georgeism:
it can if you have it completely tightened down, but you would not be able to pull the phone in and out if it was tightened down. the way i have it now is the clamp holds on to the lip of the phone but not so tightly that I can't easily put the phone in and out of the dock. The clamp does not press on the buttons, this way.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Anderson2:
Guy Hi. I *really* need help....

I have a rooted nexus 7 2013 running stock 4.4.4. 1 tried flashing the 5.1 factory image and now have what I think is a bootloop. Here's what I did :

1. Downloaded the razor 5.1.1 factory image (LMY47V) from

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

to my windows 8.1 laptop

2. Modified the flash-all.bat to remove the -w so it says "fastboot update image-&.zip"

3. I already had adb and fastboot installed on my windows laptop

4. I restarted my nexus 7 2013 into recovery, fastboot mode

5. Connected the N7 to the laptop

6. Ran the modified flash-all.bat.

Here's what appeared in the command window:

The nexus 7 2013 went into the Google boot up image sequence with the rotating flashing lights, but they are different from the kitkat lights.

Trouble is they keep repeating forever without fully booting.

I can exit by pressing "power down + power" and I can reenter recovery mode by again pressing "power down + power", but I cannot fully bootup and cannot enter my TWRP.

What should I do to finish flashing 5.1.1?

And then to regain root? What did I do wrong?

Please help. Thank you.

Go into stock recovery and perform a factory reset. If it still doesn't boot, flash the factory image one part at a time. Flash all scripts can act wonky sometimes.

OK. Got to the factory reset screen and wiped all data. Reflashed 5.1.1 and now booted up.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] zphelj:
I'm experiencing this or at least a very similar issue and factory reset doesn't help. I flashed the factory 4.4.4 image and it boots up OK. I then allowed the OTA to upgrade 5.02 and yet when that completed flashing and rebooted I get the same thing, boots to 4 spinning colored globes and hangs. Any way to see what's happening here or other suggestions? Thanks!

Edit to add: I first flashed 5.1.1 and get the 4 spinning globes. Factory reset, same. Flash to 4.4.4 and it works. Upgrade to 5.02, back to spinning balls.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tony.wheeler:
I've started to get problems on my 2Gb Micro SD card again (this one a Kingston). As well as seeing some corruption of file names and missing folders I am also getting the folder structure shown but with no files within! Accordingly programs installed to the card will not run and files cannot be accessed. I have tried resetting the device but this sometimes does not work.

If I move the card (turing off Vario II first!) to my USB card reader I can see all the files and then when I insert it back into the device all normally works OK. Perhaps it's the action of reseating the card that solves the problem - but can a simply contact issue be the cause of this?

I am aware of the many problems with cards on this device (this is my second card - the last having been a Sandisk 2Gb) so I realise it may be a connections issue and have a piece of paper inserted with the card (recommended elsewhere) to ensure a good seating of the card against the device contacts.

I cannot trust the card at all in this state and have had to restore my card many many times - it's getting to be a joke:mad: Whilst others are looking to get even more storage I now do not even trust the card I have with 2 Gb so the idea of storing even more data seems crazy for me at least.

Has anyone else seen this and have you any ideas? Would a card of lower storage capacity be better? I ask because some seem to indicate the problem is only with these higher capacity cards.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cloudcover:
Hi there -

I have an older HTC Desire HD phone that I'd like to repurpose to my son for him to use with games, etc. I know the hardware is now quite old and dated so I'm guessing it's even more important that I find the right ROM for it -- in terms of running smoothly and with minimal lag or hiccups. Can someone please offer a suggestion (or two) on what ROM (and maybe recovery) to use? In the "About Phone" section of Settings, it says that the Android version is 4.4.2 and the CyanogenMod version is 11-20140504-UNOFFICIAL-BR3-ace. I know I installed CyanogenMod on it a while back but am not sure if this is still the best thing to use or whether there's a newer/better ROM (either CyanogenMod or something else).

Hi, I just updated my dad's E970 from 10.2 stable to the latest nightly using the latest version of CWM for the phone. I did a factory wipe/cleared cache etc., before updating and downloaded Gapps for CM12. Everything went smoothly and the phone runs great so far, however it seems like the phone takes a lot longer to charge than it did before using the same charger(s). It used to take ~2 hours to charge the phone from ~25-30%. I charged it from 46% and it took over 2 hours. Also while charging and using the phone lightly, the battery percentage would sometimes go down from simple web browsing. Something seems off.

The battery doesn't seem to be draining excessively... it's just the charging is slow, like it's not getting the normal amperage or something.

Update: Seems to be charging normal now. Hmm..
