    Funny postscript - for several days, I was struggling to get the 3G data connection working at all, even though 3G sig strength showed as good. I finally opened a chat session with ATT customer service. The rep quickly told me that my new account wasn't "provisioned" correctly and to...

    Disable Sleep Mode?

    New owner here - are there any settings to control how quickly sleep mode kicks in or to disable it entirely when usb externally powered? Perfect example of needing this would be using the Nexus 7 as a car gps. Thanks for any help.
