Bought Nexus 7 today @ 9PM. At last, my kid won't kacau my phone anymore.

Redeem the promotion gift and damn... screen popping up. It was not there when I unboxed it at the shop.

Anyway, after reading a few guides on the net, I started prying off the back cover from the top all the way to the bottom. If you familiar with Samsung phone, I bet you can pry off the cover easily.

Used two methods to stick em back. The loosen and tightening screws on hard cover book and slotted in washers methods at the same time. So far it works, no more pressing and popping up screen anymore. The screen fit snugly on the bezel.

I just used my old laminated driving license ID as the washer. More flexibility.

Might take a while to load the pics...

I used swiss army pocket knife, there is a tool to make a hole.

Update: Check again this morning and it still like the same as I left it last night. Will monitor it further.

I think it is not build quality issue, it is more on design failure. If you use ticker washer, the back cover won't fit properly and hence squeaking. If too thin or just by tightening the screws, the screen will pop up because the bezel was forced downward. My left and right hand side of the screen resting at different degree of depth, but at least it solved the pressing and popping out issue at the moment. Hopefully it will stay.

I used the 25 for this app. Hate the stock launcher orientation when came out of landscape app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...l.fameit.rotate

Wanna ask, Nexus 7 product codename is grouper or nakasi?

Update:

Does it mean something like this... grouper is the name like maguro in Gnex and nakasi is yakju in Gnex?

Thanks for the info.

Finished flashing custom firmware and kernel, then realized it was formatted as 8GB. bummer.... have to redo stock flashing to claim back the 16GB.

You missed the volume down button.

That is supported since JB especially Nexus 7, what it lacks is usb audio dac support. Which will improve the sound quality. I wonder why SGS3 has this feature but not Google own device.

The put the cheap one inside, at least give the kernel support for USB DAC so the sound can pass through to it for audiophile quality.

Mobility is the key.

Can't exactly understand your difficulty. I have no issue with Google play balance. Select is as you checkout from the Page.

Hahahha, my mistake. Thought RBC was an app name. Anyway, did not encountered this issue yet and my balance is around 10 dollars iinm.

Well, N7 "might" have 3G after all.

Yeah, I might do the same. I've been lurking around to find vanilla android tablet with 3G. Sadly, I could not find the best Xoom offers so I grabbed N7.

At least I can utilize my other Sim card. It has been collecting dust for a couple of months since I lost my 3G modem.

Share with us your screenshot. Using camera not screenshot function. Then we can compare with ours.

Did you set VPN connection?
