I use the N7 for presentation, showing pictures or powerpoint, sometimes a video. My problem is when you place it on the table, sometimes kids or adults like to put it into their own hands, and after they have watched the presentation, then being a new tablet in market, they like to click here, click there without asking for permission. Sometimes I don't even know whether they are still looking at the presentation materials or they are looking into something else, cos they are sitting across the table with the tab facing them.

Anyway to lock the tab with a password so they cannot simple opt out of the presentation and goes somewhere else?

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....

Yes, Google is the mother of android. My bad.
Anyway, a more serious problem happened today. I push power and volume up button at the same time, and now my N7 could not boot. Nothing happens, blank black screen. What should I do?

Is ur battery low around 30% or less? Then u might have this issue in JB 4.1.2. It has been reported on google site. Numerous complain about this issue. To turn back the screen, I jumpstart it by charging it then it unlocks.

My battery level was more than 30% although i don't know how much. This is because i want to try the battery mod from xda, so i hv already make sure i hv high battery level

You held the power + volume up while the N7 is at shutdown or powered up? There's one combination that performs a hard reset. Try charging it for a couple hours and power it up. Hold power button for 10sec and see if there's any reaction

I shutdown N7. After that press power & volume up


Added on November 7, 2012, 1:19 pmFinally, my N7 is alive again. Don't know why or how. Anyway, I rooted following jayceooi's video, using Nexus Toolkit, selected option 8: one click option
I hv superuser but I'm a bit confused. I don't see the CWM icon. That means I only have CWM recovery?

And to get into CWM recovery I should press power & volume up and down, all 3 buttons together?

Well, try get the 3G version. Mine is also 32GB from US but now I regret not getting the 3G. It is a bit hard when you are out of wifi area.


Added on November 7, 2012, 9:52 pmCan I perform this camera mod on my nexus which is on stock rom 4.1.2. I am uncertain because I see the downloaded file name is "N7-720p_camera_mod-tl-aosp"... aosp. This is for a custom rom?

Just tested my audio jack with my S3 earphone and there is some problem. Only left side has audio. Unplug or try pushing it in further will either give me nothing, or both sides with audio.

Darn it... why Asus didn't include a pair. Now I have to get one, and not sure if it will fit perfectly, or if my jack has problem.

Anyone tried their jacks and have problem? I bought something generic just to try it and it is the same problem with my S3 headsets, only one side have audio. Push the jack in further or pull it slightly then I can get both sides. But once my hand let go, just nothing or only one side has audio.
