The factory reset solved my fast draining battery problems. The battery lasts as long now or longer than when it was new. Just be sure to do a backup.

The easiest way I have found to transfer photos between S7 with Nougat to a Macbook Pro is plug in the S7 to a usb port on the mac. Swipe down the notifications and tap on the Transferring media files via USB, THEN on that screen tap on the "TRANSFERRING IMAGES" (this is a PTP connection not a...

I have updated to 5.1.1 and it works quite well. Just stay away from Chrome, it will still freeze. I use Firefox and works very well.

If 5.0.2 isn't working well you need to do a factory reset.

I want to second to those that say you must do a factory reset. I went along about a week with just the 5.0.2 download. Many freezes, crashes, one night the battery went from 80% charge to 10% in the morning. Something came on during the night and drained the battery. I finally decided it was...

Had the Nexus been asleep when you then tried to open it or had it been turned off and now nothing when you tried to start it? What was the battery charge last time you used it? The only thing I can think of off hand is plug it into the usb port on your laptop and let it charge for several...

I'll start the discussion. The specs for this tablet seem impressive to me The screen resolution and snapdragon 800 processor. I have a 2012 Nexus 7 and have waited until the 2013 Nexus LTE came out and was considering an upgrade. However, viewing the specs on the HDX leave me in doubt about...

The bandwidth that the new Nexus 7 covers for lte is the full range including the newest 700 and 750 bands, so as far as lte goes it is way ahead of most cell phones. It is unlocked so all companies are covered.

The latest update on Google maps has a revamped UI and there does not seem to be any offline maps any longer. This is a bad change for a wifi only Nexus 7. It makes the Nexus 7 pretty useless for using as a driving GPS. I had used the offline maps in areas that had no cell service never mind...

OP, have you tried Dice Player, their sound setting allows 100%, 200%, 300%,400% audio settings. Whatever that means, however, the 400% does seem louder.

Straight Talk no longer sells new ATT sim cards, only T-Mobile. You can still get ATT straight talk sims on Ebay, however, at inflated prices.

Check the HTC website all the info is there.

K9, do you have a good fit with the OTG cable, particularly the micro usb fit. If it works at times and then doesn't work maybe the cable is not making good contact. I have read a number of posts where individuals have had bad OTG cables.

I find this place is the best for cables, unlike Ebay which is hit or miss whether a cable will work. I always use Monoprice. Their shipping is fast. For only $1.29 each when QTY 50+ purchased - Micro USB OTG Adapter | MHL Adapters No, you can buy just one, not 50.

K9, when you plug in your camera and turn it on and then select pictbridge does Gallery open up on the Nexus 7 or do you have it open already and under albums you should see your camera in one of the Album squares in Gallery and then tap that album and import. Under 4.2, it does seem to be...
