    Let it run or turn it off?

    WiFi won't turn off while in sleep mode

    I also have mine set to, supposedly, turn wifi off when in sleep mode, but it seems to keep running. Under the setting "keep wifi on during sleep" I have it set to "Never", so wifi should be off during sleep. To verify what's going on, I turn wifi on, then put the Nexus to sleep. I logged...

    how to create a folder?

    New Nexus 7 here, since December 27...love it! Quite a jewel of a device. I transferred a number of files over USB recently, but I was not able to create a new folder on the Nexus. No option for that appeared in any of the Nexus folders. My workaround was to create an empty folder on my PC...
