by the way anyone know where to buy those thin magnet for DIY smart cover?

U using galaxy nexus?
How does it compare to nexus 7?
Got any micro lag?

I feel nexus 7 somes times lag also. During scrolling home screen.
Or when browsing the first page in browser.

Maybe its the tegra 3 nature.engine haven't warm up, still using the single core
Kinda sucks. This micro lag happens here and there, very subtle tiny but noticeable lag.

Project butter is good, but its not 100% across the ui.
Probably 98%, but that's really good already.
Wonder its butter prob or tegra3 prob.

Hi,

Been monitoring the thread Google Nexus by Cheryl15.
It seems one buyer is now requesting refund but having some issued. Not sure if this is a scammer but be a bit careful with purchase that requires 100% prepayment and waiting for 2 - 3 weeks for delivery.

jackdon.

the person request refund is jayceooi.
he has a tech blog which i subscribed, good that he's buying nexus7, will see more tips and tricks in his blog.

buw weird that he is cancelling his order. he already waited so long,
cancel sumore and order from another person will result in even longer waiting.

Let be realistic, the seller provide services for getting a US base only product to Malaysia. Warranty his not part of the deal. You have to take the risk like all of us.

good news everyone, here's a simple mod to get battery icon that shows percentage.

just flash in CWM recovery.

but need one extra step if you're on odex rom. (which i assume everyone does, since no one here flash custom rom yet)

if you are on odex rom, use root explorer or any file manager,
rename systemUI.apk to something else, such as systemUI.apk1.

then reboot into cwm and flash this.
works great in tablet UI too.

I don't understand why some people is selling RM 7XX-8XX for N7 8GB and some are selling it for RM 1000+-??

i dont understand why this is a big deal,
just ignore the one selling expensive and buy from the cheaper seller. lol...
eventually the expensive one will lower its price when he realize no customer want to buy from him.

you finish download the file or not?

i go recovery using rom toolbox,
then flash.

but before go recovery, you need to rename the systemUI in /system/app
if not wont work.
you got rename or not?

its working for me.
in xda thread no one say fail also.

i think most tabs dont come with earphones.

Samsung tabs comes with ear phone.

it is useful for video call.
U cn hear the person clearer n speak in private
Also the person cn hear u better with the external mic.

Makes the overall video call a more pleasant experience.

Hi guys, I'm poisoned by this tablet already and might want to buy from Australia since I have relatives there, is the Australian Air Mail service which is the cheapest one from AustPost safe? And can the rumor of Nexus Theme shop at LYP soon to be opened a confirmed rumour and shall I wait for it?

Bro can share how u change to tablet UI & dpi the settings?
*
ROM toolbox, buildprop editor.
Change DPI to 175.
160 is exactly like 10 inch tab but scaled down.
Too small for me, 175 is better. Try n see which one u prefer.

use fix permission if got compatibility prob in market.
Did it once n no prob ever since.

Alternatively got a patch in xda but it involve much more steps.

i use method one. much easier than the patch.
if you're rooted just open install rom toolbox and change the dpi.
you can change it anytime, and restore back phone UI anytime as well.
just remember 160 is 10inch tablet UI scaled to 7inch
213 is the default nexus 7 stock UI

i use 175 cos i want text to be larger while maintaining tablet UI.

thats the same keyboard layout in tab10.1.
the stock keyboard for 10inch tablet version.

its weird cos its scaled down to be smaller. haha.
i'm used to this keyboard from previous tablet, so no prob for me laugh.gif
