Nexus 7 cracked, lost Holidays diminished Solace sought

Thanks, still waiting for some feedback on what happened

The Motorola rep informed me that I could only use it on the pure edition or Net 10 the promo code would not work with any other carrier. I had originally intended to purchase the phone to use with Republic, but because they had their own arrangement with Motorola the code wouldn't work. If...

I wrote a new thread entitled Moto X Cyber Monday Scam, detailing my efforts to buy a Motorola phone using their promotion code. It appeared briefly, but now is gone, why?

I couldn't even use the code, it was rejected two days in a row. First reason, the Republic promotion was on. Second, you have to order only from a computer, Third, you can only choose a pure edition for your code to work. It was a scam from the start the promotion very clearly stated that...

Thanks for the tip and the link

Dead Trigger 2, Riptide GP 2, but not more than 10 - 15 minutes per game. stopped playing Asphalt 8 and Real Racing to see if that would make a difference, but it hasn't, in fact battery drain has been worse. There must be something rogue running but can't seem to find it when I check settings...

Screen times average 4 hours after a full charge. Only keep wifi on when checking mail or using a news app, otherwise turned off as is location services. That is why I am wondering if it has always been a battery issue that is getting worse over time. Was using a wake lock app but since the...

Re: how is your battery life for N7 2013? Did you leave your WiFi, Bluetooth, or location services on, all drain the battery.Also factor in the brightness of the screen, another battery drainer if kept on high. Finally could be an app running in the background, even if you thought you had...

Wakelock Detector will no longer work. Developers are aware and hope to resolve the issues. Posted via Android Central App

Re: how is your battery life for N7 2013? It certainly hasn't matched the initial reviews which were claiming almost 8 hours of battery life per charge. Posted via Android Central App

Re: how is your battery life for N7 2013? I have been disappointed with battery life so far, average between 4-5 hours on a charge, with brightness turned down and checking to make sure there are no apps running in the background, My current breakdown is 81% on 14 h 16m 52 s Screen 20% Tablet...

It appears to be related to audio files ( though I have no music on my Nexus, just games and films) and really drained the battery, bringing mediaserver back up to 60 %. I initially had problems with mediaserver which was sorted out with help on the forum. Ever since that experience I try to...
