I've had and continue to use my Nexus 7 tablet - 8GB - mainly for a few personal (database) Apps. The only thing that bugs the heck out of me is that this (now) takes almost 1 and a half minutes to BOOT up! I thought it was slow with I first got it, and then made the BIG MISTAKE of upgrading the OS (originally Jelly Bean) to (now) 5.0.2.
What I figure is that the newer OS levels are assuming a much higher level of GB of memory which is what is causing the drag in time to boot. I tried to search (here) on Factory Reset and couldn't find any post near what I was seeking. I'm not totally computer unfriendly, but dang if the Android OS and its set up doesn't scare the pants off of me
!
If I was to reset to original factory OS (and HOW?!?), what level of OS do I stop updating at? And will resetting to Jelly Bean STOP the tablet from doing an Update NAG when I make my update setting NO (thanks!)?
If this device didn't still work soooo well for the few things I do use it for, I'd consider replacing it. However, I can't see any reason to do that when I am NOT a 'gamer' nor video watcher. About the only thing that I would use more would be camera (on back) which this downlevel device doesn't have.
I remain (respectfully :-*) a Computer Dinosaur (gal) (first computer job - 1969!)
