Most likely your EMMC memory is starting to fail. From the standpoint of the bootloader, failing EMMC that is still readable looks the same as if you modified your OS. Sometimes when the tech is not experienced, they send your phone back saying you broke it trying to root or install custom ROM...

Same risk. Basically with USB C to USB C cables, all the power negotiation is passthrough, so the device communicates directly with the power source. Once you introduce a legacy connector in the chain like USB A or micro-usb then the cable needs the proper 56k pullup resistor to "tell" the...

For $199 + tax + $0.66 it is a very good phone. (Project Fi pricing if you use for 1 day and cancel or put on hold) Haven't experienced the lag people are talking about. My camera is actually quite quick to start up, even on the original mda89e software that came with the phone. Forcing HDR+...

Would any of you like to try this and give some feedback? Take that multi-touch! Fix and lock in what works for YOU regardless of updates

Sometimes those projector systems don't support HDCP, especially if they were designed for computers vs consumer AV equipment.

I guess they are claiming it is a pricing error and are offering $20 off. My guess is if yours shipped or is in processing you are probably good to go, but the 2-4 weeks ones will have a high chance of being cancelled.

Hmm, says $269 for me.

I agree, my point was though that the only thing in the listing that might make you think it was a 2nd gen is the 4G LTE part. The rest of the listing is all straight out of tmobile marketing material for Gen 1, and there is a lot of detail there, the picture, tegra processor, 1280x800 screen...

So I got curious and looked up the specs and the tmo version of that tablet supports 42Mbps hspa+ which I know tmo has marketed in the past as a 4g experience, so the only truly confusing part is the LTE which this clearly does not support. So instead of 4g LTE they should replace with 42mbps...

Honestly the only thing that is slightly confusing is the 4g LTE, take those 5 letters out and the listing looks fine. Seller has 5000 ratings so I doubt they'd be in business that long if they constantly were trying to fool people. All the specs and the picture are for the 1st gen. Tegra...

It actually is available, folks on xda are already working on getting backup images. 2013 Nexus 7 With LTE Pops Up For Sale In Germany And Italy, Includes Native WiFi Hotspot

T-mobile sometimes calls their HSDPA 4G, but it isn't LTE. I'll trust you on 1st gen not having LTE even with carrier incarnations because I just don't follow 1st gen at all. Nexus 7 2013 4G LTE just became available in Europe BTW. So maybe he is just on the edge of deception trying to take...

I am not sure about his screen protector, but I doubt nylon/polyester thread is going to scratch gorilla glass. Now something as simple as sand on the beach could scratch it, but the material has to be "harder" on the Mohs scale to scratch the gorilla glass which is probably around 5-6 on the...

Well it says "NEW ASUS GOOGLE" not the "THE NEW ASUS GOOGLE" so could it be they mean it is in new unused condition rather than new just released? They do state it is a 1st gen in the description. I am not sure if many folks would complain if they (according to how you wrote it) received a 2nd...

I'm sorry, I don't follow 1st gen nexus, what is the not-legit part. 4G LTE?
