approx a week depends on if a lot of pple repairing and how severe your case..whats the problem with ur n7?

that's anyone's guess..lol...

that's a lower end model..i doubt they'll sell it cheaper..Google managed to sell the N7 so cheap due to the subsidies given...

backup just to be safe but you MUST tell them not to format or erase anything when you send to SC. I did that and my data was intact when I got my n7 back from ASUS SC

you can get the Google Nexus 7 toolkit (google it)...use option 2,1 to backup all your apps..it doesnt need you to root or unlock your bootloader...then manually backup your internal storage files to your PC..done. everything is backed up

Experience at SC? Pretty good. They fixed my Screen Lift & busted speaker issue for FOC...the screen lift issue they replace the whole LCD and speaker replace new one - till now no issues (already about 1 month since fixed). Took about 4-5 days to get it done..pretty efficient!

benny says that it has the worst screen ever on a tablet..at least one of the worst i guess..to me i dont really notice it..maybe cos i'm color blind

last time benny brought it with rooted and unlocked bootloader they still honor warranty..but not sure if they will everytime..best u relock bootloader and unroot first before sending in...i sent to Lowyat one..its at 4th floor if i recall correctly...just bring ur unit and ur warranty card, there should have the serial number. Screen lift should be on left side, there's a small 1 - 2 mm "lift" between the screen and the bezel..very minor but u can press the screen onto the unit and it might produce a "creaking" sound...minor problem but can be annoying if u have OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

did you check out the settings page ? there should be some ROM configurations there..

common problem. speaker koyak. send to SC, no need play any software - it wont solve problem. I already sent mine 2 months ago, came back fine. took about 1 week to fix.

for those with some minor annoying lags (caused by the mmc/ssd), try lagfix (requires root):

This improves my n7 and also gnex speed back to stock when i first got it.

i usually clear cache and dalvik just to be safe although it may not be necessary. if you use custom rom, they usually have their own kernel so everytime u flash the custom rom or a new nightly for that rom, it will revert back to that custom rom's kernel - you then have to reflash your kernel if you're using a custom kernel outside of that custom rom of course

go to your custom recovery (either CWM or TWRP) and click clear dalvik cache...it should be pretty easy to find that option to clear it...i'm using TWRP btw, CWM can't recall where it was..look around in the menus, you'll find it

For those who have problem with their battery just shutting off unexpectedly at a much higher percentage (say 20% or even higher - 60% like me), shutdown your tablet. Leave it alone for few hours. Then start it back up, the battery should be at a much lower level..you can then repeat (but charge it a little first), then you should be at the right level. i'm still testing this for the second round but the first round (from 60% went to 20% works fine..no longer will u stay at 100% for many many hours).

dude..u dont seem to understand the concept here..its very simple:

CWM - Allows you to backup ONLY to internal nexus 7 storage. It eats up a fair bit (2gb or so at least) of your storage
TWRP - ALlows you to backup to EITHER internal nexus 7 storage OR an external storage such as a pendrive if you use the USB-OTG cable.

As benny mentioned, purpose of backup is for you to keep just in case anything go wrong you can restore to the same state as it was before. For CWM, since it takes up your precious Nexus 7's internal storage, it is not so desirable to use CWM..so the best is to use TWRP, get a usb-otg cable and a pendrive, backup to external storage - you won't "lose" any storage on your nexus 7..you will only "lose" storage in your pendrive..comprende? Simple right?

this may sound very finicky but best not to use the term "losing space" because you don't lose it..you can delete it if you need..the more accurate term is "use space" or "eat up space". Its up to you if you're OK with using internal storage, its a matter of personal preference also. For me, i prefer using a pendrive cos I can have a lot of nandroid backups and just in case for some reason one of them fails or is a broken one, I can restore to another one..with the limited amount of internal storage, you can only backup so much before you have to clear some of your backups. Food for thought

haha..not only that...you could always just flash another rom...unless for some reason he din backup his last rom or apps, that's why he regretted?
