Just about to order a nexus 7 and looking for advice on getting either the WiFi or 3G version.
I would like the 3G version but am concerned that there seems to be hardly any custom ROMs for it. Have I missed something here, as in, can custom ROMs for the WiFi version be flashed on to the 3G version as well?
Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks
John

Please forgive me if this has already been covered but I tried searching for a while and had no luck on the issues.
First, I'm having trouble hooking up to routers but can hook up to my buddies phone when he is tethering. It didn't do this before but just recently. I flashed Sparksmod Rom and still had the issue, then tried the Gingerbread CM7 and still can't hook up. It says obtaining ip address then just cycles.
Second, I got a 4G phone hoping I would get better service at my work, but it doesn't seem like the signal will penetrate through most buildings, but my buddy has Sprint and gets 3G and 4G. I realize this is a different band but after I saw the data throttling hack I didn't know if I had a chance.
I would greatly appreciate any input, and will remove this post if anybody directs me to the issue post elsewhere.

if i remember right data throttling was for those who received a message from tmobile saying they used to much data and i think tmo's 4g isnt so great right now depending on where you are, i get 4g sometimes and sometimes its just 3g. and about the routers i recommend trying to restart the router or manually add the router. good luck on fixing your problem
One of the best things about Tmo is that they offer wifi calling for free, but obviously that won't work if you can't connect to wifi. If you can't get wifi working you should revert back to stock and do a warranty exchange.

Thanks for the input. I've honestly tried everything router wise.

are you overclocked? you may need to apply the wifi fix if you are.
The overclock I'm running is packed in the rom. (Gingerbread cm7) Ill try to search the wifi fix thread. Thanks much!

Hi everyone,
Does anyone have heard about a fix for the N7 to be able to recognize adhoc networks ?
I can't even see the signal tethered from my android phone through barnacle.
Thanks in advance.

Just tried using barnacle after reading your post and it won't work from phone either. Haven't looked into this yet but I'm sure we just need to change the WPA supplement, possibly some custom Roms have this "fixed" but being this is the first time I've tried I haven't looked into it
when I get some free time I'll see what I can do and post back, otherwise hopefully someone else can chime in and let us know what's up

Hi all
I'm getting the 3g model for Christmas but was worried at the lack of Dev support for the 3g model. Can you flash the normal roms and only use wifi or is it specific roms for specific devices?
Won't be the same without aokp or PA

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think they'll work on the 3g model.
If you look at the title or OP of the threads them they might say whether they'll work on the 3g model aswell as the WiFi model. I know some ROMs do give that info.

If you are concerned about it go buy a wifi one... I share internet connection with my smartphone (whatever smartphone with 3g will work) and you can't notice the difference between 3g/wifi
The thought of eventually using it as a phone excites me though and I'm sure the devs will find a way

Anyone find a fix for the audio issue yet? If so please share. If not, I'm sure a fix will be out soon?
The only thing missing for me while on 4.3 are those awesome LTE speeds that I honestly can't live without anymore (especially upload, upload speeds on hspa are garbage).
Thanks!
I understand there is a new radio with 4.3. What version is showing up on your phone? Does anyone have a pointer to release notes that show you details of what has been changed in 4.3, particularly with the radio?

OP wants to use <.33 for LTE. Radios newer than .33 has LTE disabled.
So thats why he doesn't want to use .84 (that comes with 4.3)
There is no fusion fix yet.

I know that......I guess I kinda hijacked the thread for a somewhat unrelated question; my bad. Anyway, thanks for the answer. Hopefully I can now get more than 1Mbps download data speed on my phone.

does in-call audio work fine with H and H+ on the newer radios?
.27 or .33 is needed for LTE however, the .84 radio hasn't been out long enough to determine if LTE can somehow be enabled. Time will tell, Google has surprised us with today and how it's turning out.
For now, stick with what is known to work...

It doesn't have to be out long enough. If the radio has LTE disabled, its disabled. You can't workaround to enable LTE on a radio that is compiled with it disabled. Its a closed source radio just like all of them.
With 4.2.2, using the old radio with an audio fix allowed for us to keep the LTE active. Does this still work work 4.3?

anyone having trouble with 3g reception, my phone seems to turn off the radio entirely every few minutes, it's either full bars and decent 3g or nothing at all, just no network messages

Are you on stock or custom? I usually just flash the most up to date radio when I have problems like that
