Guys

Just got my n7 last sat from Directd. Rooted 24hrs later. My 1st tab & love it a lot.

Few q to u guys
1. I skipped the credit card queries when it was 1st switched on, now I would like to reg it to get the USD 25. Any idea how can I reg it?
2. Do ur n7 do auto arrange for text if u zoom in/out like ICS? If yes, how to enable it?

Thx in advance

Im pretty sure this problem can be solved by changing usb port...

I got 4x front usb port all cant be use for this operation... Change to mobo usb port then weirdly success...

1 thing i can confirm is my front usb port only recognize 1 type of connection (either adb(tab status : in android os) or fastboot(tab status : in bootloader mode)

After change to mobo usb port both type of connection can be detect...

At least thats what happened to me.

Back to bootloader > relock > flash stock firmware  >disable location services > skip adding google account > add vpn > add google account > open playstore > add any CC with us address/phone > success!

which company dont wish to make money?

diff consumer has diff perception, if consumer feel that its over priced, simple... walk away from it and look for the one that you feel its value for money smile.gif

+1 for this

Its theirs to sell, they can put what ever price they want. and if us the buyer think its expensive don't buy. Go find china brand that `cheap'. Its as simple as that. If a makcik want to sell her nasik lemak, do u think consumer can instruct her to sell it at RMxx price? For me I'm happy for my nex 7 and the price that i paid is very much worth it.

Btw anyone know how to enable auto arrange for text while zooming in/out? u know the function like in ICS phone?

chrome automatically does that, just double tap to reflow text.

if you want text reflow at every zoom level, use opera. smile.gif

Thx bro. Opera does work.

Just want to share

at 1st i use the `CactusVPN Free Trial have US, UK, NL VPN'. Then I noticed only UK Pound 15 & not USD25. I proceed but then a message ur credit card bla bla not entitled bla bla.

Then restart again all the procedure (factory reset, VPn etc), this time using US Miami server and a message `..USD 25 will b ...' appears. After 3 attempt using 3 different credit cards, at last I got the USD25.

Potential buyers - reminder get it before end Sept so that you can redeem US$25 of free playstore credits. You can use this to buy any stuffs in playstore. I spent all on several ebooks as I have already bought most of the commonly used apps

Uncle Ben

Do u remain connected to VPN in order to get/purchase ebooks? I hav disconnected my VPN (after I got the USD25) and now I got message `...is not available in ur country' when I try to access/purchase ebooks from store.. Any other suggestion to get access?

Of course you must be connected through VPN so that your account is recognized as us account
ebooks can only be purchased through us based account

Free only that I know working is superfreeVPN.com. another alternative is subscribing to VPN it self. Mesra VPN is an example.

I went to the google play support page. http://support.google.com/googleplay/?hl=en
Under contact us i email for android apps problem. From there I start to get their reply and so on.

CC must have real address added. Malaysia add also ok. After you do this do not press buy any apps for 24 hours, maybe the system needs this 24 hours to verify your account.

Hi bro

So they don't really mind if ur google add is from malaysia? My google add has been changed to us add as advised by fellow member in order to claim the credit last time. So do i need to change it back to malaysia add? Did u tell the truth of using 'the trick' when u claim ur google credit? Sorry for too many questions. Your kind advise is very much appreciated

For those who are still waiting for the  OTA update, you can follow below instruction to get quick update.

1. Go to Settings -> Apps -> All

2. Find Google Services Framework.

3. Tap on Force Stop.

4. Select Clear Data.

5. Head back to the Nexus 7’s Settings, go to About, and check for a System Update.

Source

I had to try 4-5 times to finally get the OTA update. 

So be patient and good luck!

Success at 1st attempt

Thx for the tips
