That is new latest backup format. bulk of your backup data is in folder blobs. delete any backup from recovery mode so that related blobs data also deleted

what are you talking about?

ok, before i upgrade the cwm using rom manager,
i made one cwm backup.
its in a folder wich is 1GB+, seems normal.

after upgrade cwm,
the new backup folder is 20MB only
and a blob folder which is 1GB appear.

so what should i do now?
you mean the blob+20MB folder is the new cwm style?
its normal and i should just leave it?

the old backup 1GB+ folder how? need delete?

You cannot delete the blobs folder as it has majority of your backup files. This is new 6.0 cwm backup format. This blob folder will grow in size with newer backup made n you cannot identify easily which folder for which backup. So delete any backup you do not want from recovery mode so that all related blob folders are deleted too
The main advantage of cwm 6.0 is backup n restore is about 50% faster. This is from my experience using it in the g note n g nexus
You can still restore your older backup from cwm. If you don't need it you can easily delete it from any file manager or from recovery mode

For those planning to purchase from ipmart, just know that their service is terrible. I placed an order to them yesterday and they promise to deliver the device by 12pm today. For whatever reason, they've chosen taqbin (Yamato Transport Sdn Bhd) to be their courier company.

I've been constantly calling that company and it's been a wild goose chase since. First I have to call the headquarters which then tells me to call the delivery person which then proceeds to tell me he has no such package. Then I have to call the headquarters which then tells me to reconfirm my shipping address...and the process repeats. This is just F' up. It's 3.27pm and I've yet to get an update from them.

Don't think I can recommend any of my friends to purchase from them.
Lets see if I get my device today. If not, I have all the intention to cancel the order since I opted for COD.

Edit : Item delivered @ 4pm..

Both I would say. IPmart called to say that they might not be able to deliver the item today because of traffic jam. I'm sorry but that's not a valid reason.
Anyway, I've gotten the device. Now I'm figuring out what I can do with it. :-)

Google voice search is not as good n accurate as I think. It does make mistakes also.

And it needs internet to work.
Offline voice typing works,

But if you want to ask it to set alarm,reminder,timer etc, need internet

Just want to ask why this tablet is selling like RM 950++(8GB) and RM 1150++(16GB)? OMG... =.=! Overcharging...?

I give up for the price already...  doh.gif

Its still cheaper than other quad core tablet. Even after taxed by dealers.
Frankly speaking first gen android tablet are based on tegra 2, which is a sad failure.

Samsung tab 7.7 is exynos which is great but slow update.
And expensive. And bloated wit touch wiz.

Asus transformer 300, prime, and infinity are good, wit the keyboard combo its excellent, but the price is insane. Close to 2k.

So I wouldn't complain bout the nexus 7 price.
Same performance at a smaller size.

Nice to hold and carry around.


Added on August 3, 2012, 7:39 ampreviously i Said that all Chinese words appear as "?"

I am mistaken.
The files are copied from pen drive using USB otg, so the words got converted to ??
Nexus itself is able to type n read both modern n traditional Chinese.


Added on August 3, 2012, 8:12 amWhile looking for casing in garage sales,
I saw this thread http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...0845&hl=nexus+7

Impressive. So much ready stock for nexus 7, no need to wait.
Price same as preorder too.
Maybe extra abit,but no need to wait n direct cod is quite good.

You have voltage regulator or not?
If got don't need converted. Can directly plug in.

Actually nothing special bout this charger, output is 5v 2A.
Same as other android tablet charger. U can use Samsung tablet charger.

By the way pic snap using nexus camera. The quality equally suck like iPad 2. Haha.
