Does anyone notice faint, horizontal, fuzzy streaks across their screens? It sort of gives the screen a papery texture and is most obvious when the brightness is low to medium.

With the new Google Maps update, did the navigation option for public transit directions get removed? I can get the Blue arrow to show up in the bottom right corner for the navigation option when selecting driving, biking, or walking directions. But when I select public transit, it only gives...

After you say "Google", how long does it take before it says "Speak now" when it is actually listening?

Yesterday, Google released an update for Google Now that includes Reminders. Does anyone else notice that it takes longer to start the voice search feature? Previously, it takes maybe half a second from the time you launch it to the time when it says Speak Now. But now it can sometimes take one...

Dropbox app has a feature where it will automatically upload the photos/videos you take on your phone to your Dropbox folder instantly. Does Google Drive have a similar feature?

No in the photography world 3:2 is the standard aspect ratio. Look at sensor formats of the 35mm film and DSLRs.

I am so lost. Both 8 mp and 6 mp should be greater than the resolution of the screen. It's not the same aspect ratio however, so you'll have to cut some parts off if you want it to fill up the entire screen.

Yeah, I'm so confused. I tried receiving the 4.2.2 update and choosing not to sync my previously downloaded apps from Play and it's still slow. But I am happy running AOKP. It's fast and smooth (although still not as fast as my GS3) and I'm happy with the set up.

I have a GS3, FB Home was a neat idea. It's decently fluid, little bit of lag occasionally (Carbon 4/8 nightly with KT747 4/11). But it obviously reduces the functionality of your phone; not practical if you plan on using your phone for more than just FB. But it could be cool if you could...

Sometimes when people send me facebook messages while I am running Facebook Messenger, I don't always get the notifications. This happens when I both have Chats Heads turned on or off. With watchdog checking CPU cycles actively, I can see that facebook suddely spikes up in CPU usage when I have...

I just recently received an N7. I played around on the stock 4.2 and then received the stock 4.2.2 update. I noticed that it is really slow...scrolling and opening the app drawer and switching between pages on the app drawer was incredibly laggy. I have Google Currents disabled. I then flash...

Just got my N7 today, pretty excited. I'm coming from a Galaxy S3, I've been flashing all sorts of ROMs/Kernels on that. I was wondering if there are any completely or nearly completely stable ROMs for the N7 yet? I'm not too picky about performance or battery life, but stability is my...

Re: Phone wont Boot Find the factory image, download it and the two boot chains (not sure if your version uses two, I have the USA verizon one and mine needs two). Flash the two bootchains, flash factor image. Google for step by step

I'm just reading this thread where people are saying they're happy that they managed to downgrade back to 4.1.2 http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-7-rooting-roms-hacks/241827-downgraded-4-1-2-very-happy.html

A N7 is being shipped to me. I've been reading about all the problems people have been having with the 4.2.2 update. If I choose not to flash a custom ROM onto my N7 for now and want to use stock, should I try to reject the 4.2.2 update and stick to 4.1?
