First, just did the OTA 4.2 upgrade and all is well... These tablets are KILLER for the $$. The only thing I have issues with is the power/volume rockers being so close together. Any apps/widgets or other suggestions for turning the tablet screen on and off without using the physical buttons?

Dunno what app can do it but I do know a magnet can.

Jklsr55, I've found this one to turn the screen off.
I haven't tried it though.

Just randomally goes to lock screen? Even when using the device I have my screen timeout for two mins but this random ally happens sometime twice less then a minute.

I believe I found out what's causing it.. lol I am wearing a magnetic ring and when I touch near the bottom left on the back it turns the display off weird?

So apparently its supossed to do that with magnets like in a case but works with my ring kinda cool.

Had the same problem. Used to fold the front of my case behind the tablet to use Kindle app for example then realised the magnets were causing the screen to lock. Was driving me nuts for a while and I was all ready to return the tablet to the store. All's well now though :good:
Is there anyway to get the Asus screen shot shortcut (press and hold recent apps) on the Nexus 7?

Press Power and Volume Down simultaneously.

I am aware of power and volume down, but the design of the buttons combined with the folio case make it hard to access them. I am looking for an on screen shortcut like Asus uses on the TF300. Thanks.

Do you mean something like this. I don't know if you can add to the power menus on stock.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yes, something like that would be great.

What ROM are you using.....I doubt it is possible on stock.
Sent from my BNTV250 using xda premium
You can do that with AOKP

Kaos Droid has that too.

I found an app called "Screenshot It" that adds a shortcut to the notification area. Thanks everyone for the input.
yeah AOKP has a power menu option to add it when you hold the power button, very easy to use
If your device is rooted, you can use a program called utter! (a voice activated assistant with a lot of voice commands that runs in the background). Shake your device to wake up utter! and say "Take a screenshot". Most commands in utter! do not require a rooted device but a few do.
If your ok aokp, you can change a softkey to a screen shot one. Really cool.

Hi,
I need help, I updated to the most recent 4.1.2? i believe. whatever is the most recent build. I updated it last week and today..I can't change it back to portrait mode. It's just in landscape. I unlocked the screen lock and I restarted my device multiple times, but it's always landscape..
Is t just the home screen or the entire device?
Home screen..

Some launchers, e.g. Apex, have settings to force a given orientation. Does your launcher have that feature set?

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.
