WiFi seems to be fine, but if I am out and about, then I have found I lose data connectivity. I have a good signal strength with the H showing, but apps report no network. Going in and out if airplane mode does not make any difference, it reconnects to the network OK (T-Mobile / Orange / EE in...

Easiest way is sign up for Google music if available to you. You can upload your iTunes library. On your phone you can play anything in your library and choose to have some music saved to the phone. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Had avast give me this warning today. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

I have used mine as a full satnav in the car, and on foot. There are some satnav apps that do not need WiFi to work, even the standard maps app lets you download for offline use. I have also successfully used mine tethered to a phone over WiFi. I have heard that some people have built mounts...

Another road test. Just had the Satnav running for 90 minutes, this time with the supplied charging lead and I now show 99% charged. Fairly conclusive that you need the right cable to get the higher current. Roger Sent from my Nexus 4 using Android Central Forums

I tried several, not all worked. I used CurrentWidget, set to show current updates every 10 seconds. Was not that easy to follow what was happening, but there was a noticeable difference. I would like to find a better one, however, running an app and seeing if it charges or discharges proved...

I installed an app that shows battery charging current. This showed a clear difference between the cables. All will charge OK, but only some provide enough to run an app and charge. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

I thought the cables should not make a difference, but my test with a Samsung cable had it discharge, while showing charging AC. Swapped to the nexus cable and a while later it had charged. Same nexus charger, same app and screen showing. Very strange. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android...

I went for a drive with my sat nav app running. Worked great. I had a USB cable plugged into a 2Amp cigar adaptor. I found after 2 hours the battery had discharged to 60%, a surprise as the battery icon had the charge symbol shown. Swapped the USB cable for a HTC one, when I got home, it was...

I asked politely about the duplicate notice and shipping refund. They replied saying notice was a glitch. This morning shipping is active - out for delivery. :-) Notice received saying my card is being credited for the delivery charge. :-) :-) Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android...

I had shipping notice yesterday at 03:33. Just had a duplicate at 0:33 No tracking information yet. Time to claim shipping back? Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Those of us with 1-2 weeks are not yet in delay. (Not until tomorrow evening). It may be those who had the 2-3 days quoted, got that message. It would have been good if they bothered to contact all people who were waiting or even just published some status updates. People will usually...

Something seems to be happening. On other forums some have reported there cards being charged this evening. Went and checked on the play store and my order date on the system has changed to today. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Because then they would have to pay tax ;-) Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

Tried this and was referred to the offers t&c page. Replied back, this morning, still waiting to hear. Perhaps we should ask Google to cough up if they cause us to miss the offer. Roger Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums
