I am thinking of throwing in the towel on my Gen 1 Nexus 7. The whole RAM issue is simply frustrating as Hades. Quite frankly, Hell would be a great deal more fun. Short of an Apple iPad Mini, what is the concensus of the community? If you were to buy tomorrow, what would it be? AGE

Re: Help - Lollipop killed my Nexus 7 (2012) Follow SNIFFS recommendation and then if you still have a problem, start cannibalizing apps. Removing the Facebook App is the difference between "yet another worthless piece of electronics" and back to what it was like when new... if not better. I...

I wiped cache too many times to no avail. I reset to factory and wiped memory. 5 loaded differently with a fresh image. Then wiped cache again and lots of UI and Launcher not responding errors. I then removed Facebook and Weather Bug. Even Chrome runs better now. Wiped cache again leaving FB...

Old? Three year old hardware should not be this painful. This is simply bad behavior and unacceptable. My four year old S3 is a rocket. This is shameful!

Constant "Launcher isn't responding" errors. Next to be kicked off, Weather Bug"

As time marched on, the experience turned absolutely miserable. Multiple cache wipes, factory reset. It just goes from bad to worse. Google turning into Microsoft and third party apps are horribly resource intensive. Base hardware reports nothing out of the ordinary. Going to start cannibalizing...

The jury is still out but my update today to Lollipop seems to have my N7 2012 32G running a whole mess better than the previous 4.4 build. Of course, I have simply downloaded, installed the new update and launched my staple five or six applications. There is still lag where this thing used to...

But I think you miss the read between the lines here. Here at AC, you find mostly either the "power user," "geek user," or "educated," user... educated that they know AC exists and can come to the community to ask their questions and become better educated. What you don't see are the millions...

Freakin' knock it off... my garage door keeps opening and closing on my car!!!!!

This may be a result of the Windows HomeGroup networking solution also. That's why I asked about the different computing OS platforms and what you can/cannot see using the LAN tab on ES File Manager. Connecting with a physical cable (USB) is actually launching a device driver on your PC so...

This is where higher layer OSI gets ugly and where "computers" and "tablets" get differentiated at times. Not all IP stacks are created equal. So what you are saying is that using ES File Explorer and using the LAN filter (or tab if you will), you cannot see the other N7 but you can see your...
