OK, I let my Nexus 7 die to to low battery. I refused to come on even when reconnected to power. I used the Change/disconnnect/connect/power 15 sec trick to get the device to come on at all. Power is now about 15%.
Now, things are strange with WiFi. I can use any browser to connect anywhere on the net. However, I cannot use embedded network connections - play store - other apps to connect. It seems like WiFi should either be on, or it should be off. It shouldn't be somewhere in the middle.
Also, date/time is 12/31/1999. Presumably this is because it can't connect?
I realize that possibly a full charge may fix things, but I'd like to know what is going on. It seems like a low power level shutdown of features should affect all programs equally. Why can a browser work, but not other apps?
