Try m-kernel.

Don't.

Make sure you are on stock rom 4.2.1 with stock kernel + rooted. Use ota root keeper and then put the update zip in your Nexus 7 and flash the zip to update to 4.2.2.

oh well.. you should have rooted it first in 4.2.1 and use ota rootkeeper to keep your root when you update to 4.2.2

otherwise watch out for updates in this thread for v1.63 to release. WugFresh is working on 1 click root for 4.2.2.

edited. give out wrong link.

Use splashtop. But you need a laptop for that.

Nexus 7 > Connect to Laptop (via splashtop) > Laptop screen come out in Nexus 7.

It is what we call Remote Streaming. But, bloody fast and free Then again, it doesn't serve your goal but just an alternative.

There's always a way.

Buy 3G version of N7 and third party hardware that support out calling.

Or using Skype or any other VOIP app to call to mobile phones (requires in APP credits)

just use cheap phones for calling and N7 for everything.

sir wifi version have 2 mic too.

because its not located there.

if u hold the nexus 7 having the camera at the top.

the mic will be at top left and btm left.

Pow + Vol Down works for me. 4.2.2 here.

its your rom i bet.

file sharing.

Use ES File Explorer to access Local Folders (Shared) in your PC.

Once you get the idea you can opt for many other APPs that are similar to it.

maybe is nivida hardware related. try this.

I'm using this bluetooth headset

+ wireless! i live in a small house so i can wear it anywhere inside the house without losing connection to my Nexus 7 or laptop.
+ microphone works well with google search/now/skype - but for laptop usage you can only use mono for sound when using together with mic.
+ lithium battery!!
+ 3 hour usb charged for 16 hours usage
+ awesome sound quality
+ RM 100

so far it works with all kind of bluetooth enable phones/laptop/tablet that i had tried. Including Ipad 2, Nexus 7, Iphone 4S.

hmm. if i were to compare it with earphones and wired headset i cannot find any faults. i am quite an audiophiles freak myself so i tend to feel uncomfortable when i get bad speaker headset/earphone. But this headset never let me down

things that you need to take note of


- it requires charging (but i usually charge it every 2 days?) and u can still use it when you charge it with the usb cable. Quite a long cable so no different with normal wired headset.
- somehow the size doesn't fit my ear well but it still comfortable for full 3-4 gaming hours.

Other then the fact that it does not require AA batteries (uses lithium instead jst like our smartphones) and it is wireless (thank god i love this so much) it just work well. Well spend RM 100 for me. You have 1 year warranty too if im not wrong.

oh ya, it works well with our baby nexus 7. Both the sound and mic

ha! i know why the volume bar show up!! you were trying to press the combo key for screenshot

Its common issue back then. I think the I/O issues are mostly fix in most custom roms.

If I'm not wrong ASUS centre in Lowyat is not directly under ASUS. They're just outsourcing.

That might explain the lack of real communications between them.

Sync background services < no 1 ram, bandwith sucker.

i have use sooooo many kind of usb hub. all works. the no brand kind of usb hub.

It most probably some high processing app running. Might not be kernel or hardware fault.

Having a Nexus 7 make me ditch my Android phone (I will only use it as tethering). Somehow I end up wanting to receive everything on my Android phone screen (Text and Calls) on my Nexus 7 screen instead. There's of course an app for that.

That being said, I tend to use Nexus 7 a lot until i treated it like a phone. (But no I don't call people I just like receiving and replying notifications all in one place) but its lacking something. A back camera.

New Nexus 7 I'm positive they will have a back camera as well as front ones. Plus, with better screen size and HDMI enabled ready, and I'm sure Google will surprise us with more stuff (Android 5.0 maybe?).

But, the waiting is not only until May. The stock will most likely release somewhere early June, then reach malaysia somewhere early August (just like Nexus 7). If you can wait then it is fine. But the price for 32GB = definitely won't be at RM900. RM900 should be 8GB or if we are lucky 16GB (doubtful if they added more cool hardwares)

If you buy now no you won't have any regret. Nexus 7 is great plus all its libraries are live online. Don't worry about future updates (i would say).

enter fastboot manually. Maybe because you did not enable USB Debugging. Either do that and restart the program or enter fastboot manually by pressing power button + volume down when the device is turn off.
