luckily i bought from garage sales early batch, able to get for <1100 for 16GB.

now seems many garage sale people also increase to 1200 already.

but still, its a much better buy than samsung tab2 7inch, or tab 7+

blink.gif sure ba? sked oo just received it today cry.gif

and what is ''cwm'' anyway? heard u guys talking bout it back page  hmm.gif

since this is your 1st android device i suggest familiarize with android before root

read more about android, especially on abd boatloader fastboot cwm rom kernal etc.

once your hand is itchy to flash rom and kernal download nexus 7 toolkit to do the job, unless you are ok with the command typing job

yeah, manage to boot, just restore everything with titanium backup.

last time dare not flash any rom, cos worry if screw up cant boot, i cant enter recovery.
my cwm cant use the volume down + power to enter, need to use app to enter.

but i ask in xda they say plug usb cable and connect to computer, then only the combo keys will work.
i tried and indeed can enter cwm.
so since i can enter cwm, no harm trying new rom.

let me play around with the settings  and other stuff first.
everything looks very strange and different to me bacause i use tablet mode by 175dpi change since day one.
this one kindda like weird hybrid tablet phone mode with stock dpi.  rclxub.gif  need to get use to it.

it has a very cool boot animation by the way.
and it boot very fast. i was expecting need to wait very long for first boot.
maybe its the quad core.

how do u flash cwm in ur nexus 7 last time? the button combination should works perfectly, at least for mine and my galaxy nexus, if u did it correctly..

maybe u can use the toolkit to flash recovery again, there wont be data lost or anything missing anyway

by the way i dont quite get the meaning of tablet UI.. jelly bean is made in this UI for both phone n tablet..

i see the tablet UI is similar to honeycomb, but not sure are they putting the same thing into jellybean

Why even bother to change since you got CWM working properly
Actually only major difference it is touch selection and menu display in tiles format

[attachmentid=3000081]

As for me i have no choice as the only way i can get CWM working is through rom manager - this is no good as if phone softbrick, i cannot access it to boot into recovery mode. Also i failed to boot into recovery in fastboot mode even with phone connected to PC

TWRP for nexus 7 also same UI with gnex? swipe to confirm?

iPmart selling 8GB version 899.
Tempting!!!!!
http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Goog...php?prod=351026

But 16GB for 1199 seems to be too much. Since buying from US, they're just 50USD difference. Maybe it's hotseller.... Supposed it should be just 155~170 higher but they mark it RM300 higher
hmm.gif

MV Asus pre order 16gb also 1199..cant complaint much d

I have tested several roms :

1. Team EOS3 Jellybean Nightlies
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777586

2. Xenon HD v9
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1826484

3. Euroskank JellyBro CM 10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784248

4. CNA 3.2
http://codenameandroid.com/forum/index.php...me-android-320/

My favorite is CNA 3.2 which combines the best of stock, AOPK n AOSP : it is the best and most well featured rom. EXtremely stable with no bugs so far. Except for XenonHD which freezes sometimes, the other roms are too worth to try
These custom roms has put the NExus 7 to a higher level of performance and features

I only wipe data the first time i flashed Team EOS ; subsequent flashes of the other roms, i only wipe caches only thus preserving all my data. In all cases the install was perfect ( except XenonHD , some slight freeze n FC)
In all these roms, I use Trinity kernel

Incidentally, CNA 2.0 is also my present rom in my Galaxy Nexus ( i have tested 8 roms )

I use the gapps recommended by the respective developer. All these are just standard google apps - don't think there is any better or worse one

experience from gnex is some email in certain gapps wont sync, but some will

i guess this 1 have to test

my bro get me 1 at the price around RM 800 only whn he back from US
16GB only 249USD

if they import customs may charge 5 to 10% if they not lucky
customs charge 10% RM 80 only ar thn plus shipping
std shipping 6 USD + large box charges 8 USD, make it 15USD = around RM 50

RM 1199 - RM 800 - RM 80 - RM 50 = RM 269 they still earn

u got someone there to ship to u and we are paying the international shipping cost+profit...different case and cant compare much

in dead trigger game, is it worth to buy the chain saw? will it be useful when run out of ammo?

oh ya wana remind you guys, flashing to another rom seems to delete the game process. remember log in and use the online backup. titanium backup wont restore the saved game. so sad...

u sure? i have been backup n restore all my games data across all my android device all the time..

when u restore did u restore data as well?
