    Facebook causing trouble in 5.0.2??

    Hi I have a rooted 2012 nexus 7 running 5.0.2 and i'm using clean master's autostart manager to save memory. My nexus runs almost like Kitkat in loading time. I have found out all the lag if because the 2012 model only has 1GB of ram and with apps auto starting and running in the background it...

    Cracked Screen Pattern Locked...need some guidance

    Advent is talking about a OTG cable, but unless your nexus is rooted I don't think it will work. If you go to https://play.google.com/store and log into the account that's on your daughter's nexus and use "Android Device Manager" that's under the gear shaped thing in the top right hand corner of...

    Nexus 7 2012 password and factory reset problems

    As far as I know you can not do anything to your nexus if it is locked, so you will have to wait till your password works again before you can change your settings. When you clicked "erase" in your android device manager you only erased the the data on it like pictures and music. Try using...

    Will the docking station work on Nexus 7 which is not charging with original charger and usb cord?

    I have a docking station and two nexuses one running 4.2.2 and the other running 4.4 that I just updated a few days ago. My docking station works with both of them. I haven't looked into any problems with 4.4 as I haven't had any yet, but your battery could have just gone bad or it could just be...

    4.3 System Update won't install

    Did both of you install custom recoveries on your nexuses? or use the nexus root toolkit to unlock and root your nexuses?

    Updating

    I take it that you have a custom recovery and as far as I know you can not update your nexus without having to wipe it and put everything back on. I use the free version of titanium backup, it works great to back up your app data.

    need help with connecting a controller

    I take it that your nexus is rooted and that you're using a otg wire. Are you using both [root] Ntfs Mounter and [root] StickMount? It might be that the controller uses more power then the usb can put out, but I can't see how that would be, because I can use my afterglow v1.0 with mine with the...

    how can i root my nexus 7 without using pc

    He could be charging it with the dock or his micro usb port isn't totally broken. ------- No I can't think of any other way of rooting short of using some form of android terminal emulator and rewriting all the code by hand. If the boards not cracked and you know someone skilled and handy with a...

    My nexus is doing weird things when listening to music with it. I have a unlocked rooted stock nexus with TWRP recovery on it. I use blue tooth headphones with mine, but I use iHeartRadio and my screen does turn off well listening to it. The first weird thing about it is after the screen turns...

    Nexus 7 will not power up after using nexus toolkit

    Your link is dead, but are you sure you downloaded the right .img to flash it back to stock and that you set the setting on nexus root toolkit to the model and version that was on it before messing with it? I take it you have the wifi model and you may have loaded the mobile .img and flashed it...

    So I was taking apart a Nexus 7 for the first time today...

    So, I have this old nexus 7 laying around with a broken screen and you know what I pushed the number 4 button and NoraMelua was right. I did gain a million dollars and a random iPad owner was killed. No, no not really, but the money would have been nice. I pushed it and it did nothing, nothing...

    So I was taking apart a Nexus 7 for the first time today...

    It looks like the hole on the other side and the top for the mics. Maybe they were going to put 3 in it and the cost of adding a third was to much or figured if you're holding it your hand would block the hole.

    replacing cracked screen

    ok, cool thanks for the information. Now if I do a full backup of everything will that save all my settings, passwords and information for my apps? Any word on what's in the 2nd ged or when they will come out? I may just hold off and port everything over to a new device.
