YouTube reviewer? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know of a YouTuber who basically just reviews ROMs/accessories/etc for our device? Kind of like how QBKing77 does it for Sprint Android devices. If not, its cool, just wondering. Thanks.

Don't know any, but that's a really good idea, I might try it soon.

But will it blend...
Here's the closest I could find - http://youtu.be/NU6tuQeF2T8?t=1m35s
scary stuff man!
I tried the dr Paul way, but without ninjas. I did it with a cy-bear attack. He punched me and I flew and sat on my N7. Then I used my Caprisun to defeat him. (if you've seen the commercial)
Don't you know the Nexus is smash-proof? Try it out for yourself! :silly:

Best rom for nexus 7

Hi, i would like to know what the consensus of the best rom is for this epic tablet. Usually i would go over a few roms a week and test em all out, but dont have the time Lemme know?
There is no such thing as a "best" ROM. It depends on what your needs are. And ultimately that is going to come down to you trying them out and finding out what works for you.

Been using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777586 with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1823671 for a few days now. Thinking about trying out CM10's new "M" build.

What are your best kernals?

What are they? Why are they your favorite
Thee is only one for the KF. It is Hashcode's. You should stop putting "what is the best ROMs" before the mods get mad.

Thread Closed, what are the best Rom, kernel, themes, hacks threads are not allowed, best advice try some and decide for yourself.

[Q] how do you change the color/images of soft keys?

Hey I have the cm10 nightly rom and i was wondering if there was any way to change the color or images of the soft keys to something different.
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
You can do it by replacing the images in the systemui.apk or might be able to do it through a theme as well.

Pull it to your PC, add a .zip behind it, edit, remove the .zip

This a link for a simple how to! If you want to pull systemui will need a apk tool. You can do search on that. I hope this helps.

One of my favorite guys for all things Android. Should work the same on your nexus 7 as his Galaxy Nexus. Maybe not the Exact same thing but similar concept and a good start.
P.S. you could also just flash aokp and it should be in settings.

Multi users on Nexus 4

I would love to see multi user on the nexus 4..I think it wouldn't be hard since it's already in 4.2... think it would make sense for doing different setups like different launcher, icon packs, theme etc..I wonder if it's just a line or lines of code to turn it on and/ or is any body up for the challenge!!?

Isn't that why we can make backups?

Multi-user support is only available on tablets. Nokia has a patent on multi-user support on phones.
I am sure a build.prop edit can fix it.

That is more for switching ROMs ...not having different setups (launcher, icon packs etc)

Exactly.. doesn't mean we can't figure a way to get it on our phones
Hmm I don't think a build. Prop edit will do it but I'll check

Well its only for tablets, I think the reason for that being tablets are more family and sharing, whereas phones are a personal device. Why would you want to share your phone?

I don't see anything in build.prop specifically disabling multi-user mode. Looks like I was wrong.

Ah I see. I didn't know that. I thought it was a 4.2 thing.. You are right though. I have no need for it on my phone.

Would be nice to have multi-users for testing and demo purposes.
Absolutely! Make an account for me and let me borrow your phone.

Bored, trolling or no way to imagine use cases when multi-users may be handy?
If I want to show something to a client on my Nexus 4 (or any other device) without providing access to my apps and data?
or
If I'm willing to give it to my 3-4 years offspring for a video or a game, without risking my contacts, notes, mails?

This is the only reason I would need it, but it is a good one. If my 5 year old wants to watch a movie or play a game I wouldn't have to worry about her screwing up my home screen or deleting apps like she has been known to do.
I believe Paranoid to be the answer. That's if you don't mind rooting.
Great example above and the most used I'm sure.

Have you tried on Nexus 7

Requires root.
Removes some of the limitations of the present 4.2 multi-users' policies.
