One X and Nexus 7 - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to pair my One X with my Nexus 7 so I can MAYBE receive text messages and calls on the Nexus 7. Is this even possible? An app maybe? Thanks in advance!

There's an app called Tablet Text for sms and caller ID. I'm not sure if there's anything for actually making or receiving calls.

Is it possible to use these texting apps with an ordinary mobile number (I.e. not a smartphone)? I find my phone so small that I always struggle with texts...

Word of warning, it will stop working after 14 days unless you pay for it $3.99 for a year. At first I thought it was a steep price to pay but it really is worth it since both devices do not need to be on the same network. For example your phone can be connected by 3g and the N7 by wifi and it will still work.

I very much doubt it. Unless you are in the States and set up a Google Voice account.

Does anyone know if there is an app that we can use to send and receive text messages on the Nexus 7 while connected to wifi?
if you use Google Voice then there's always that option.

If you want to use a phone number from your cell phone tablet talk is great if you want your tablet to have its own number use Google voice

I've been using MightyText. You install the app on your phone and set it up, then install it on the tablet. You can send/receive texts from the web or the tablet. It will push it through your phone so it's all from/to your normal number.
I just installed Mighty Text on my Nexus 7 (I already had it installed on phone and PC). Until now, I didn't know there was a tablet app. Pretty cool stuff.

Thanks for all the responses. I'll have to give them a try. Google voice does texts? I thought Google voice was voice chat

Tablet talk also uses your cell phone number

Cloud SMS has been most reliable for me. He is adding mms support right now. You can email dev and ask to beta test mms. Tablet talk wouldn't stay running for me and I kept missing messages. Google voice has always been horribly inconsistent for me. I just use it to make international calls nowadays.

Mighty Text works just fine for me.

[Q] Nexus 7 3g ?

If I buy a nexus 7 32gb 3g version , i can make phone call and messaging ? It's possible ?
It's been asked and answered repeatedly. Search is your friend-don't be afraid to use it.

phone call for 3g nexus 7

Hi,
Can nexus 7 3G make a phone call or send sms, act like a
phone. app like text+ is not what i am looking for. Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
There is a thread digging into it.
It seems that we still cannot have a phone call functional, however, SMS & MMS are likely to work.
Great. thank you
