No offense but if its still confusing perhaps you shouldn't root your device without a guiding hand.

No particuar reason for not root, I just wanna try without unroot. I want to feel the original Google experience.

Few things at this moment I want to see by default;
1) The owner of the table able to share files, sharing apps also best to have. This feature will smoke Ipad Mini.

2) I able to hide certain photo folder direct from gallery ( as my HTC Incredible S phone able to it)

3) Hotspot suppose to have since my tablet Wifi+3G.

4) Able to set default widget on lock screen. I found out it always show '+' widget. even create 5 widget(this the max) it still show '+' even I can't add any more widget.

5) how about apps shortcut at lock screen? I can't find setting for it.

As he said. Frankly speaking that IS already the shortcut. I remember those days when rooting HTC phones and early Samsung phones. Big messy hassle

Root is only when you wanted access into system files, no root is needed to play games unless pirated games which somehow require root access patching

If you don't see the need to root, don't. Nothing wrong enjoying the device as it is.

Hi bro. Thanks and this is my 4th Android device... i have used both S2 and Tab 10.1 before changing to Nexus 7 and S3 biggrin.gif

by the way, i have successfuly flash the zip file and got back the tethering function and tested running perfectly.

For those who want to use the function "Tethering & personal Hotspot" can follow below steps:

a) download rootkit from this link http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
b) Follow instruction to root your Nexus
c) after rooting, download the tethering zip file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995737
d) do not unzip it and just save it to your PC
e) Run rootkit
f) Click on "Launch" button under "Advance Utilities"
g) Another menu will appear, tick on "File from this computer" and click "Flash Zip" button
h) Select the zip file you downloaded just now and start flash.
i) wait and follow on screen instruction...
j) once your nexus reboot 2-3 times, you are done. Now you can see "tethering and personal hotspot" under Wireless and Network settings. biggrin.gif

Enjoy!!

Disclaimer: Root at your own risk. The above is the steps I taken for tethering function of Nexus 7 and no further responsibility will be held by me if any damage caused to your device.

NewEgg Mal told me that must send back to Newegg Mal. Their Reply
"For any RMA or replacement, you need to refer back to us, Newegg Malaysia. Although Nexus 7 has international warranty, but you must send it back to us in the first place. However, if there is any defective happen within 30 days from receipt date, you can exchange one to one unit from us."
