i tried connecting my external hd using stick mount but cannot detected...my hd is 1 TB usb 3.0 gigabyte brand...my thumdrv can detect....maybe not enough juice to power up the hd?

I have no issues detecting my Samsung 1TB ( also USB 3.0) drives using the OTG cable. Sometimes this is due to the OTG cable . I have 3 of such cables. ONly one could be used perfectly. The other 2 just failed

How serious was your screen lift issue?  Mind does have some but not very serious. I afraid I'll be having a hard time to tell the service center that my unit suffers from slight screen lift issue haha
*
No need to tell
You can see it if there is such issue

Guys,do i need a receipt if i were to send my tablet to the Asus service center. The tablet was bought from the Play Store.

No need but if it has the serial number bring it along. Or note down the serial number before going. If not the center will open your back case to see the serial number

Will the new batch of Nexus 7 come with Android 4.2?

The multiuser log in feature is awesome... no need to log out from my Facebook account when lending the tab to my sister. Can't wait to have it on my Nexus 7.

Jpaq,
If you would like to have a brand new out-of-the-box experience then be prepared for the item to be queried - this of course depends on how the item is presented / or not when your relative brings the item in?

Make your life easier by unboxing the item, dress it up in a case (get it there in the US cos the selections here in KL is still rather....... thin) and says (if asked) its a used item. Nuff said.

Others might want to offer more opinions.....

Why go through all these trouble
There is no duty n import tax for tablets into the country
I even bought a notebook back from USA back few years ago. Just inform the custom is personal use as only 1 unit
I bought 2 handphones from spore n gladly show the custom too. He just wave me through

If laptop, memang no tax. Non-3G version of tablets should fall under the same category. So no worries. But if they categorise it as a tele-communications device, then I dunno. I have no idea whether a 3G Nexus 7 would fall under that category. However, you brought in 2 handphones from Singapore as well and you showed it to them without problems? Interesting... I always thought things like handphones were taxable...
*
Handphones also no duty n import tax
Most custom hold it n you pay rm100 for sirim permit
I travel a lot overseas n seriously most of time custom don't bother if you buy only 1-2 units electronic stuffs. Worse thing one can do is to hide such stuffs

*
From 5% is about 3 hours. So don't think it will exceed 4 hours

Thanks guys for the file explorer recommendation. Actually why did Google take away the file explorer? Is it not important? I seem to use it every now and then. Curious....

Google android does not come with any file explorer app. only Samsung add it into it
