For those who has the left side screen lift/creak issue, just sharing my experience here.

Got my N7 just before Raya and i just noticed that i had the screen issue a few days ago.. Really annoyed by it. After some googling decided to fix it myself this morning. It was easy and just took me 15 minutes, and the problem is gone.

I used the solution here, also this video here for the guide on how to take off the back cover (only the beginning part).

It really works for me..

i think mine has left screen lift too. how does the screen lift affect the usage of the tablet ?

I think it is not faulty. Just not enough power to on your external hdd. That's why previously i mentioned to use Wireless External HDD ( estimate RM570+ - Seagate)
*
a bit expensive.

anybody here using OTG and got an external HDD working with nexus 7 ?

It can only work on fat32 low capacity ,say 120 gb . Above that your usb hard drive need to have a power port
The N7 power output is insufficient to support larger size hd

i see, thank you for your answer.

I haven't tried this idea yet, but you can try to combine y cable + usb otg + usb male to female to get more power.

in theory, it should work though. I had already ordered the cables, but the cables haven't reach yet so can't test whether it really works or not  sweat.gif
