Quite enjoying 4.2 at the mo.
Always nice to tinker with something new.

But I only get the option for 3 widgets on my lock screen. Clock, calendar and email.
Does anyone else see more or how do I get more ??

I noticed this too. They are the only 3 available. I would imagine the likes of Apex and Nova (which updated for 4.2 last night) may have the ability to add more. Or even a custom ROM using 4.2.

Already out of stock! :(

When I first received the email it was still saying it hadn't been released yet, and now it (apparently) has been they don't have any!

Let's hope they will be available elsewhere before too long.
 
I bagged a 32gb one for £179.99 last night, originally I was holding out for the 10 but I couldn't justify the extra cost as there's a good chance I'll end up sending this one back or selling it once I realise I don't really need it :o :D
But either way it'll look nice next to my SGS3

Thanks for the quick response. It would appear that I am unable to install. Could I please ask how you did it?

The TVC devs are aware of the market issue after the 4.2 update so a fix shouldn't be far off. If you can't wait you can use titanium backup to take a backup of the app running on another android device and then restore it on your tablet.

If you don't have another device I can upload the 3 files you need.

woot! Cleared services framework cache and OTA 4.2 suddenly appears.

You're a star!! That worked for me too!!

Edit: OTA update failed although I had stock recovery. Later realised it was because I had modified the LCD density - build.prop file. Reverted it back to normal and OTA worked fine!

Only thing is, now I have to re-root to restore my tablet-like LCD density!

Thank you for your kind offer. As the app isn't that important to me at the moment, I shall wait for the fix.

Thanks
 
Awesome, Haven't updated mine yet will do tonight, should keep me happy until I can get an order accepted on a NEXUS 4 lol.
 
Does anyone know any outlets in the UK (other than the Google Store) for the new Nexus 7 3G please?

I obviously wish to buy one unlocked, SIM free and not tied to any network, or contract.
 
Thinking about getting the nexus 7 mainly for media playback and web browsing. Im not expecting constantly super smooth performance, but want something that is generally nippy. Is the 1gb ram a noticeable hinderance on performance and how does the tegra 3 soc stack up for my needs?

Lastly, will the nexus 7 struggle with high quality 720p mkv video?
