So you did not change to custom kernel?

no, i dont like custom kernel, especially overclocked ones..
i dont feel any smoother/faster on them.
but definitely felt warmer if they are overclocked.

similar, not as bad but very obvious..compared to when i got it..twice i heard the speaker like "crack" then no sound, i reboot OK then suddenly got the problem already..if use earphones no problem sad.gif
*
somewhere i read that download an app called equalizer,

and reduce the base to zero. it will remove the crack sound.
you can use as temporary fix until you send it to service center.

when you wana demo your prob to them, play a song that is high on bass.

Google just launch Playbook in Japan, Nexus 7 16GB is selling at 19800 YEN
which is under RM800.
Its cheap because of Play Books and Movie i guess.
*
yup, they really earn alot from the play store.

every book, movie, cost so much.

on average each movie cost 3.99USD, about RM10+,
same price as going to cinema
if movie is available in play store, i rather buy and watch on nexus7 than go cinema,
save petrol, parking, and trouble.
i watch more than 10movies a year. thats rm100+ straight to google.

some HD movie cost 15USD. wow...

Also, sticker on the warranty card

Oh, in addition, the "0" in in the number is actually not the number "zero" but the letter "O". So if anyone has been having trouble regustering their product, should type as "C7O" etc instead of C7"zero".


Added on September 25, 2012, 12:33 pmIn case anybody is still wondering where to buy the Nexus 7, there is a convenient list in this blog post. Scroll towards the end of the blog article.

RM900 seems a fair price for US version considering all the extra cost involve. Malaysian RM999 price is just insane for a tablet meant to be sold at around RM760.
*
hello buddy, this has been mentioned sooooooooooooooooo many times.

RM760/249USD is ONLY for US, since play store is fully open there, books, movies,magazines,music, americans actually buy all they stuff,so its ok for google to subsidize.

root will not wipe.
unlocking bootloader is the process that force you to wipe phone.

samsung phones bootloader not lock, can root without wipe data.

duno why nexus phone bootloader locked.
but not a problem since first thing i do when got it was to unlock bootloader and root

I'm using the same  flip case as in post #2 in that thread. biggrin.gif

Bought from eBay at less than half that price. Mine is grey color.

But I feel the back side a bit thick due to 2 layer

But still nice la
*
oh, same like mine la. i like it very much.

i understand what you mean with the 2 layer.
at first i dont like it. but its no choice, without it the cover will not stick to the front.

i rather it has 2 layer magnet then use a rubber band to tie it.
rubber ban one more mafan

this is a good cause since its one of the few that does not cover the bazel.

Go launcher. But it looks horrible.

Nova and apex paid version can do it too.
The home screen is 6x6 so big already.
Is it really necessary to add folders in app tray?

Thank you...

another thing, is it worth to go through the process of getting the free USD25? or should i just forget about it?

what are the perks of getting the USD25?

"If you missed this step, you will still get your $25 credit. But, you will not be able to use it at all." - got this from the first post...

Guys, are you comfortable with nexus 7 phone or tablet UI?
As a galaxy nexus user, I find nexus 7 has very similar interface compared to my phone. IMHO, nexus 7 is more like 7inch version of galaxy nexus.

I've been reading the first page about the tablet UI, the patch method and the DPI method seems to be a better choice in my case. ( going to try stock ROM for several weeks before going custom )

Tried using apex launcher, result are not that impressive. The notification bar stays on top and unlike galaxy tab series where it combines to bottom menu bar. I know custom ROMs have function embedded so is there other better way that I'm not aware ?
*
at first, i hate the phone UI very much. it looks horrible.
then i tried the dpi method, works ok, but it cause problem with play store, many apps cant download.

so tried the tablet UI patch, it was great, but then its still feels weird having such a small tablet.

use back the phone UI feel its very nice again.
because i hold it in portrait mode most of the time, even when browsing.

finally i settle on phone UI.
the 3 buttons easy to press.
tablet UI the 3 buttons too close to each other.

at the end of the day its up to your preference.
paranoid is the nicest rom for me so far, because it has the feature to hide/unhide both the navigation bar.
making any app to be full screen.

this official case review on youtube, it was't well made and bad built quality.
the front cover is flimzy and cant be used as a stand. and no smart cover feature.
the front cover cant stick close to the tablet, no magnet/velcro/band to keep it in place, it will fall open easily.


you sure you want that? if you still want it for whatever reason,

i know forumer 88sales88 selling for rm80+ i think.
