I have a similar problem with 6.0.1 on my Nexus 7 2013. It will play video from any source just fine, then all of a sudden (like from one YouTube video to the next) it will only play the audio with a black screen. The only way I have found to fix it is to reboot. I have tried uninstalling and...

Using the same cable I can connect to my Western Digital My Passport drive, two different cell phones, and charge my Nexus 7. I can't see where there would be any problem with this cable. When I plug in my cell phone, my system blurps, another drive shows up under File Explorer, and Device...

That is also one of the reasons I got my Nexus 7, I had been using a Palm, so this is a great improvement. I have the Kindle app, and Moon Reader+, as well as the Google Book app. The Kindle and Google Book apps are mainly for books purchased from those vendors. I also have a great many...

This is the same cable that connects two different cell phones with no problem. It will also charge my N 7 without a problem.

I have a Netgear WNR2000v3 that works great for my Nexus 7 and my son's Asus laptop, as well as his iPhone 4. I second the checking for interference. I was waiting for son the other day downtown. For the fun of it I pulled up my WiFi analyzer to see if there were any open routers around I...

When I first got my Nexus 7 last fall I had no problems connection to my Windows 7 pc with MTP. Now my Windows 7 pc and my new Windows 8 pc don't even acknowledge that I've plugged the N7 in. When I plug in my LG phone it sees it right away, but is using the old USB Drive method. This tells...

Proud owner of a Google Nexus 7 here, running Jelly Bean 4.2. I have looked all over but cannot find a TAB key on the default keyboard. Anyone know where I can find it? I've tried leaving it alone, but it hasn't come home.

Have you checked your Jellybean status? I got my upgrade to 4.2 a couple days ago, and you might have gotten yours. If so, you need to check if your two apps are compatible with 4.2. Try uninstalling them and see what happens to your WiFi.

Just had a thought - I remember seeing somewhere that there are two kinds of USB cords: Ones with power & data, and ones with power only (called AC charge cords). Seems that if you are using a data USB cord the device senses that and will only charge at the USB power level, no matter how much...

I'm loving my Nexus 7 to pieces, and most of the time WiFi is enough for connectivity. But I was just wandering around looking at hot spots and saw a few 4GE USB modems. Has anyone tried to use one of these with the Nexus 7? I already have an OTG cable on order, so that much is taken care of...

I just picked up a 'New Trent Arcadia Rapiduo' (19.90 USD) charger from Amazon and it works great. It has one 1 amp USB slot and one 2 amp slot. It charges my Nexus 7 just fine. It also comes with its own cable. I had one of the generic charges with attached microUSB and it worked too, but it...
