*** Nexus 7 2nd Gen thread ***

When using the swipe feature on any keyboards does any one else get the odd time when it seems to think you've taken your finger off the screen and stutters a couple of random letters out? It happens on different ROMs as well, looks like it might be getting sent back because it's a small thing but drives me nuts!
 
guys if i transfer a pdf on to google drive and then open it up on the nexus does it download it to the nexus itsself, the reason i ask is a dont want the nexus been clogged full of pdfs and would rather keep them on the google drive (sorry for the stupid question but first time user here)

I'm using swift keys app. Purchased, love it.

Let me test. I will write a test reply infact using the swipe feature.
 
I'm Curbridge using the swipe feature to test. I'm not very good at it if would seem. Allah this is fun.

Allah is meant to be Albany... Allah... Actually! Hooray!

No breaks like you describe.

Testing in landscape mode now and I'm lightly touching the screen.
 
Mine should be here today from the large supermarket chain. Any recommendations for a flip case? Will have mine in my laptop case most of the time and need protection against the other leads and drives in the pockets.
 

you can buy sleeves off ebay for pennies compared to that, i recommend the mofi pouch

You can't after rooting I believe and have to do it manually.

I may be wrong, I need Sky Go so can't root.

damn, i was going to root mine, then i remembered why i unrooted my current nexus 7, sky go, why you no work with root?

Put a complaint in mate.

It comes with some juice in it, start playing with the N7 now!!!!

I'm still tinkering with in depth custom options for home page and bits like that. I have work to do though...

I have it out of the case (£0.01 one) and it feels perfect. I really am thinking about splashing out for the official case as I hear it keeps with the original feel and shape. The leather (lol...) one I have adds too much bulk.

i looked at a lot of cases in detail, and the one i ordered from america looks the best fit, only £12 too, i didn't want one with a plastic surround as some people have posted on here, i wanted it to be as close to the poetic one i have on the nexus 7 v1 as possible and i believe i found one just as good.

i posted the name of it a page or two back i believe

Will be putting a complaint in once I tear myself away from the device. All up and running with it now.

The screen is soooo pretty. No dead pixels and no backlight bleed. Its perfect so far. Now to grab some more games.... Anyone know when dungeon keeper is coming out?
 
Mine just arrived 10 minutes ago from Tesco. Even though the website says its still in the warehouse awaiting dispatch.

It was almost not delivered by a company called Ipost? My car in the drive, windows open, fiance in the front window doing some washing, me sat 8ft from the door in full view.... and he just puts a card straight through. Fiance saw it, ran out, asked him what he was playing at so he gave her the parcel.

Its now charging in the corner and I can't wait to start it up. Using the mofi case from my first gen nexus 7 whilst my new cases arrive.

Shocking
 
You can get the Poetic for the v2 on Amazon.co.uk

Poetic SLIMLINE Portfolio Case for Google Nexus 7

has a plastic surround (do not want)


Poetic StrapBack Case for Google Nexus 7

has a terrible looking plastic surround covered by leather this looks hideous

Poetic Slimbook Case for the Google Nexus 7

this is as close to the one I got for the V1 apart from it has white stitching on black leather (looks stupid imo) and it has slots for credit cards (do not want).

other than that it is perfect, i love the surround, i love the fit, everything.

it costs £13, the one i bought has black stitching, the perfect surround, perfect fit, no credit card slots and is less than £12.


if i didnt find one which i liked i would have went for the Poetic Slimbook
 
Wooo, arrived this morning \o/

Didn't come via Yodel, was "UKMail" instead whoever they are.

Just in from work, time to nerd out for the rest of the day.

can you or someone else take some pic's using the back camera and post them up.

i've been told it is pointless, and they should have just left it with a front camera for skype only.

mine shall be here tonight after i get the wife from the airport.

I'll will soon, it's charging at the moment so just shows the empty battery symbol when I try to turn it on. But I'll upload some when I can using the back camera if no one else has.

is this from OCUK? or another?
Tesco
 
Hmmm, I just noticed, I have a tiny section, maybe an inch long right at the top when the brightness is turned up to max in a dark room, you can see a tiny amount of bleeding. I will of course never notice it otherwise... I will live with it. It's so small it's probably not worth the risk for another unit.

On that note, 100% charge this morning, been playing with it every chance I get. 6 hours and it's at 85% charge. That's installing a custom rom, syncing all my apps, setting up a tonne of things. So not just typical browsing.

Very impressive. I will run it until it's dead just to see what kind of use I will get :) Normal to high usage due to it being a new gadget and I can't put it down haha. Auto brightness as well.
 
Here's a couple of pictures with the back camera that you wanted Psycho Sonny, using the nephews toy dinosaur (*cough* :p)
Ignore the white box in the back, had to edit the image.

Background focus
Foreground focus
Radeon HD 7850 box

Pictures are quite grainy and blurry. Couldn't get an outside shot as it's got 5% battery due to charging and it's plugged into the PC.

Yeah I had a feeling it was going to be a hardware issue :(

After a bit more playing it seems to be very intermittent so getting a replacement is going to be a pain because they'll give it a quick test and say it's fine :(
