I already arranged to get a second screen sent to me, but I'm still worried about the battery thing. I thought it checked for the battery charge and wouldn't boot without a certain percentage. So since I probably don't have a working battery pack it might be it doesn't boot because of that...

Hello, I just fixed my 2012 Nexus 7 screen by replacing the screen of it. At first attempt it just kept flickering, so I opened it up again. Now it just stayed black with the backlight on (just like my broken screen did). Opened it up again a couple of times, now it only flickers for a brief...

Hi, I once bought a Nexus 7 (1st gen), and after only two to three months it fell and the glass broke. So since then (that's already over a year ago) I have a Nexus 7 that won't turn on. After it fell, it was still on, and I could use it, though only a tiny part of the screen still reacted to...

So the worst of the worst things has happened. My Nexus 7 took a little fall today (and it wasn't by far the first one, but so far I've been lucky - till now) - and now the screen got a little crack on the upper left corner. Or so I thought, when I first saw it, but then when I put the tablet on...

Mine, 32GB + mobile data directly from Google Play USA, is so far in good conditions. Sometimes I feel a little squeaking, but not in the left upper corner, where it occurs when there is a screen lift. And I think it's the SIM-Slot that causes that, and either ways it sounds more like it's the...

As far as I heard you can easily remove the back, and also there shouldn't be any electronics, so that is actually a great idea. With the front this won't work so well of course. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

My 32GB + cellular data seems to be just fine. No screen lift whatsoever, but the battery could be better. But I think that's my apps and pattern of usage. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Mh, it's a little expensive, but I guess I'll give it a shot onceI have a little more cash on the side. Thanks for the tip :) Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Hi I'm looking for an app that provides me with a new keyboard where I just write with a stylus or my finger and it translates it to text. Also, I'm looking for an app that allows me to just write on my homescreen and then creates a note. Actually, anything that is just close to the Galaxy...

Or more concerned that those apps download alot of data in the background! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Like the title said, "OS Services" downloads a hell of alot stuff. Just yesterday 22mb. I don't know exactly what it does, but I want it to slow down. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

I don't know if this has already been posted, but if you have troubles with wallpapers that work just fine in Portrait mode but get cropped in Landscape mode, the app "Simple Image Wallpaper Free" allows you to set two different wallpapers for each orientation and at least tries to make one and...

And what's wrong with using it on a tablet? They even say in the description " Great for video chat, streaming music/movies/TV, playing online games, and more.", so I don't see why tablets should be blocked from that?! Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Currently I'm using my Nexus 7 with the AT&T SIM card that it shipped with and the 3GB per month for 30$ prepaid plan. Well, I already used 440mb of that. Sure, it's the initial "neccesary apps downloading" (I don't have WiFi!). I know it doesn't work with Sprint or Verizon, but I didn't hear...

Mine shipped with 4.2, and I experience a battery life of 5 to 6 hours. Over night, in Airplane Mode, I lost 20% from 9:45pm to 7:45am. Charging takes a good while, but right now I'm draining the battery to 10 or 15%, turn it off and check how long it takes to charge. Let's just hope it will...
