What happens if you go to settings/display and set the display sleep timer to never? Does it change anything? Sounds like maybe an app setting issue not forcing the tablet to stay awake.

I was thinking that it seems to have stopped, i just want a few otas to hit the 7 and help fix this beautiful device.

[Q] Screen Flickering & DPI mod

Had my Nexus 7 for 24 hours know & its amazing but the I've only just noticed that sometimes my screen flickers & I have to lock & unlocked my nexus 7 to stop it, is this due to the DPI mod I'm using to give me a TabletUI or is this a fault?
Thanks in advance
Seems like its a problem regarding tegra 3 devices. It should be fixed in a rom update eventually.

Take the brightness control out of Auto and see if it helps

Mine seems to flicker only when using Tapatalk. I haven't seen it do this on the home screen, browser or when playing games at all but every time I use tapatalk I see it at least once.
*edit* I also remember seeing it flicker when using the Facebook app.

Check settings-display-rotation settings. It is not about rooting..
And now i just feel like a dumbass.... the screen rotation was lock at the status bar lol
Appreciate the help though

is there a ROM or launcher that looks like tablet mode on landscape? but then looks like phone mode on portrait?
i've tried Paranoid Android, and it puts tablet mode in both orientations.

This happened to my first n7... my only fix was to exchange it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yeah but I lost my receipt so I don't know how I can exchange it now
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
If you purchased with a card, you can try asking the retailer to look up your receipt.

Help_ big problem with nexus 7 volume

Hello all. I'm having big problems with the volume on my nexus 7. Basically the tablet just repeatedly shuts off all my volume.
I will be just scrolling around home screens or in an app and I will just see the volume slider appear on screen and the dialer going all the way down as if I was physically doing it myself.
It is so annoying and I don't know how to solve it. It happens again and again.
Please tell me there's a solution to this. I've tried turning it off and on but no luck.
Its worse now. Been happening for over a month.
Thanks for any help all.

YouTube app help needed

The stock YouTube app just upgraded and whenever I watch a video I get a white square in middle of my N4 screen. Cant figure out how to remove it, probably something simple.
Anyone know how?

Same problem here. Have you found solution?
Clearing cache and app data won't help.
This works kind of. But as soon as I turn the phone to rotate screen it comes back up

Do u have chromecast or TV that is connecting to WiFi? When that icons appears that means its streaming on the TV.

I know this is offtopic, but aside from the Connect TV feature, I've completely switched to Viral now.
