Can I use mobile odin on Nexus 7?

PRESS POWER BUTTON for 10 Seconds and press volume down immediately
Use volume buttons to toggle from one option from another: Go to RecoveryMode

Wait until ERROR SCREEN POPS then, PRESS(POWER AND VOLUME UP FOR 3 Seconds)
Go to factory reset(USING VOLUME BTNS)
Go to Yes (USING VOLUME BTNS)
Restart your tablet

In KL , I have read from users here if they have stock, you can get it replace within few hours
If they do not have, they will order for you and inform you when to send in tablet to have it replaced

Nexus 7 16GB Wifi at SenQ in my area here selling for RM899, I guess it's overpriced right....but I feel insecure if I purchase from Satugadget for RM699.
*
Why insecure ? Satugadget is a trusted reliable seller. They have a very, very big outlet ( at least 3 X the size of most retail shops) at Wisma PGRM. I have bought from them 3 times at their shop and 3 times through poslaju. All transactions smooth and easy

Thanks for the info WIS9000. That way, I think I better use a regular cable.  smile.gif

Btw, may I know how long it takes for your nexus 7 to fully charge? Mine take around 5 hours. I am wondering if my battery is in a bad condition already.
*
Charging should not take more than 3 hours ; my sets were previously the WiFI only sets. TRy testing with other charger /cable to eliminate possibility of bad battery.

Still deciding on iPad Mini vs Nexus 7
*
I have used both n my choice on N7 mainly because its WiFi n resolution is very much better than ipad. 80% my usage on internet stuffs n reading ebooks. If you are into gaming the ipad has more varieties n choices. Both are different OS n your choice also need consider their differences n your specific needs
Files management on iPad is poor vs N7. Even with JB the best file explorer app cannot match any android file explorer app. You need iTunes to manage it better

How about the battery life of both?

Depend on what you used the tablet for

As for me ( zero gaming) the ipad mini can last longer by at least an hour+ up to 2 hours maximum. Standby mode ipad mini more superior as battery levels hardly dip

anyone know where i can buy a replacement battery?
i'm guessing my battery is dead or something, so want to get a new one.

Everytime i try to charge it, it takes more than 12 hours to get to 95%, and a few hours later it completely discharges rclxub.gif

I tried changing the cable, and it worked. but only once. after that full charge, using the same cable again made the same issue pop up.

I dont have a receipt for my device(as i bought it from my old company) so i don't think i can bring to Asus service center(eventhough it is a legit malaysian set)
*
NO need to show receipt. They identify your warranty through the serial number. I claim free motherboard replacement and subsequently given a new set without even bringing/showing my receipt. My first set I bought directly from Google USA and ASUS M'sia still will honour the warranty

Thanks bro. Btw are you familiar with the method of claiming warranty here? Need receipt or something? This is in the event that I get a 2nd hand US unit smile.gif
*
Mine was directly purchased from USA.
I got a replacement unit free ( originally supposed to change motherboard free) n they don't even ask to see receipt or proof of purchase
Everything is verified through unit serial number

What should I told them? Just act dumb and say I didn't did anything? tongue.gif

Mine can only boot into custom recovery n cannot even with hard buttons to fastboot mode.
The Asus staff straightaway knows I have unlock bootloader n install custom recovery.
Yet they accept n replace motherboard FOC. But than the tech screwed up replacing it n instead gave me a free replacement unit ( sealed). My set from Google USA n I sent in to Skudai Johor service center
