sigh, i seem to have the random reboot problem, and nobody on the internet  has find out the cause/solution for this yet. heres hoping it is a software related problem, otherwise sending back to US will be a hell lot of hassle

International warranty n can be processed at local Asus service center. My previous N7 direct from google USA too I claim free motherboard change n eventually got a free replacement new set instead

Typical potential buyer behaviour
They react strongly to any negative reports
Such negative reports never bother me but infact will spur me to buy it to verify it myself
So far I have bought so many phones/tablets n seriously yet to have a defective unit
You will see more negative postings rather than positive positings - is typical human behaviour.quick to criticize but slow or never to praise

Recieved my 32GB WiFi from seller dark_devon this morning. Rooted and flash TWRP recovery within an hour I got it. So far did not find any issues so reported - touch screen insensitive , pixel problem, gps detection etc. Everything is working fine

Tested n dump CM10.2 rom ; worse than stock rom especially on touchscreen sensitivity. Cannot restore or even backup in titanium backup. Just finished restoring back the original rom.

same here.
the CM10.2 is fast in antutu and during use. but something not right for me. like its missing the photosphere thingy in the stock camera, and the focal camera apps doesnt work. quite alot typo from typing im assuming was bcoz of the touchscreen, but now u mention it. maybe the cm made it worse.

im now on CleanRom, basically stock rom just less bloats and some mods like restart/boot on menu and some other stuff . maybe need wait for the full cm10 release  smile.gif

I am similarly now on Clean rom. Another good aosp rom is Carbon based on my previous N4 n N7. His listed in original android development

No bootloop issue on my N7 on original firmware, upgraded jss15q, clean rom, n even CM10.2.
Just change kernel to elementX mainly due to its feature which allow doubletap or swipe across to wake-up display.

My second N7 ( previous model) I shipped through comgateway.
Infact many previous N7 users got their set through comgateway shipping

just saved my nexus from softbrick (i think) cry.gif
stuck at google logo, can go into bootloader and i have twrp recovery.
i tried flash custom rom CM10.2 and CleanRom from twrp but end up stuck at google logo sad.gif

end up trying restore thru fastboot  ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381582 )
been figuring out how to enable adb in bootloader, luckily found the link above  notworthy.gif

now backing up everything all possible ways  biggrin.gif

anyways, i bought myself a OTG cable, tried to connect OTG-->pendrive to restore twrp backup i made. but it wont load. is it because of the NTFS format?

You must wipe to install CM 10.2 but not necessary if you want to install cleanrom if you are starting from official rom. Changing rom in between them you must wipe too. Rebooting of both rom should take about a min for cleanrom while is about 2-3 mins for CM10.2.
You can only backup to a fat32 formatted thumbdrive.
Next time if you ever got stuck at google logo, press volup/down + power to switch off n than voldown+power to boot to recovery. Select wipe n reboot. You should be able to boot it back

These are pics of the Niilkin case :

Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image

Compared with the Poetic case

Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image

This poetic case is more expensive - cost me RM 84 inclusive delivery from Amazon. I bought it that time as it was on special offer at US$5.95 vs US$12.95 normal price. Delivery cost me another US$ 20
You can buy 2 Niilkin cases with this price but is well worth it. Its quality is superb and material is very much better and texture is better than the Niilkin. Most important the front flip is firmer unlike the Niilkin is soft and flimsy , so much so if you try to stand the tablet using it it drops off easily. You need to position the front flip properly to get it standing right. The Poetic has 3 magnets at the right hand side and can hold the front flip firmly . Overall construction of the Poetic is also very good and the Niilkin pales in comparison
Well, one gets the value one pay for it

Niilkin cases are decent and is definitely not high class quality
I have used several of them in my phones/tablets
