I bought 100GB from Amazon and filled it with music (before the Gmusic beta) I use it all the time. In a year when thats up I may use Google instead. My biggest complaint with ACD is the lack of an iOS app, second is when i create a playlist in Android it doesnt carry over to the cloud.

Nexus 7 "jelly bean" optimized Apps

What apps are optimized for the Nexus 7?
Looking through the Play Store and searching Nexus 7, many of the apps aren't optimized for this tablet.
I was hoping I could elicit your help and perhaps we could create a list here.
What no recommendations...?
What kinda apps are you looking for? Games, News app, note?
Any that are optimized for the Nexus 7.
When you get on the Play Store, most of the apps are designed for phones.
I think we need a good list of apps that are for the 7 inch form factor of the Nexus 7.
Astrid Tasks
DataSync
Google Drive
EverNote (not amazing, but decent)
Notes for ICS with Tasks sync
Apps are the key to the ultimate success of the Android OS and ultimately the Nexus 7.
Thanks for starting our list!
I'm hoping more of you will add your input.
Stock:
Google play books and magazines
Currents
Chrome is gorgeous
After:
Xda app - after running this for awhile, I realize that uses an inordinate amount of battery life. Nearly as much battery as google play music has used in 2 hours of playing music well just being a backrub after. Are there any fixes or is this a known issue?
Supergnes works great both portrait/landscape although I prefer nesoid and snesoid emulators..
Talkatone paired with Google voice
Camera launcher for nexus 7
Stickmount
Rotation locker ( long press choice, widget is broke)
Google earth and Sky map work great in 7"
Kindle app does *not* take advantage of all the real estate.. lots of screen wasted in 1 and 2 panel.

What do you use your new nexus 7 for?

Just wanted to know what ya'll do on this awesome tablet.
I basically serf the web (forums, twitter, facebook etc.), play games, play some gba games using My Boy! emulator, watch movies/tv shows, read some books using Moon+ Reader, skpye, text with textplus, read some comics with ACV reader. I know, quite a bit of stuff lol
As an English major, lots of my classes have readings in PDF form. EZ PDF Reader has been a crucial app for me for school on my tf101. That will probably be my main use once school starts.
There is a thread already http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387402

For YouTube and social apps when I'm too lazy to go to my living room and turn on my laptop.
But main purpose is to get latest android version and play with it.

I use mine mostly for watching shows (Netflix/hulu/crunchyroll) and browsing the web when I don't feel like firing up the PC.
Its also makes a great alarm clock, small external hard drive, calendar for work, and basic email checker for work for me. Heck, its almost replaced my laptop entirely.

Tapatalk, Reddit, YouTube, controlling Netflix on PS3, browsing, reading epubs, play movies/music via DLNA, Hangouts, Skype, play videos, DuoLingo (doing some of these through Miracast makes it even more cooler)
Guys there's already a thread started, the link above, that's absolutely the same thing. Why make another one and have two?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Mainly like having the latest version of Android. Also like the portability of a 7" tablet too. I've surprised myself by using this a lot more than my 10" Asus Infinity. Not just because it's new either, I prefer using a 7" tablet over a 10" for many things. Reading my magazine subscriptions are MUCH easier on my Infinity though, and I still prefer a lot of my games on my Infinity. I love that Google has made cloud storage available on a lot of games though. Makes jumping between devices MUCH easier!!

I use it to browse for Nexus 7 cases

Asphalt 8 coins hack

Hi everyone.. I want to hack asphalt 8 high score /coins from my phone itself.. I have edited subway surfer coins using game killer but i am unable to hack asphalt 8 coins using game killer or similar.. Please tell some way to hack coins in asphalt with out computer
Sent from my Q900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
This forum is more of a news / help desk / info / development sort of thing. I imagine hacking games and apps type questions are frowned upon. If you want information like that, use your Google-Fu and scroll a few links down past all the XDA ones. I did a quick search and about four links below XDA are the sites from which you would probably get the assistance you seek.
if you found something, please let me know too !!!!
