Replace nexus 7 mainboard - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My nexus 7 is stuck in apx mode and I found a nexus 7 main board on eBay and want to know if that will fix my problem, I think it will so my real question is, I have the 16 GB version, if I bought a 32 GB main board would that still work?

It will fix. I had the same problem and sent it to warranty service. My Nexus 7 had been replaced a new main board

Obviously Nex7 because you will be able to update it to android 5.X.X when it comes out.

Has this been confirmed somewhere? The N7 doesn't have expandable storage, which means if I buy it would have the be the 16GB one.
Yup. It has no micro-sd card.
But can we still copy files on it?
Sorry for that n00b question.
BTW, anyone knows when it's out in dubai or india?
If you can live with 16gb then the nexus is the better choice. Tab 2 has an older processor and inferior screen.

I considered the Tab 2 as it was the same price as the 16gb N7 (both $249) and it had expandable storage. I bought the N7... I feel I made the right choice.

Okk...
I guess i'll consider the n7 more than the tab 2.
it has usb mass storage right?

If you root it and get an OTG adapter. I bought two for like $1.50 with free shipping.

Dubai Dubai 16GB AED 1299
India India 16GB INR 21465
I don't live in either of those areas so don't know how reputable the retailers are, But a quick search on Google and thats what I found
After buying an N7 on release date and within 3 weeks my screen cracking to bits I too am wondering which is the better tab. Agreed the N7 has better specs power wise but, I think that the galaxy tab will have superior build quality including gorilla glass which is now my main concern.
How did that happen? Thanks

yes,at the cost you buy an usb-on the go cable,you can mount and use a usb key,a data storage hdd or also some internet keys especially huaweii's

If you want to use 3G,You need to buy a 3G+Wifi Nexus 7 which is a few dollars more than the original one. Check here.
I bought both!!! Tab 2 for my aunt Sally because I could use Team viewer Quick Support (only supports Samsung) to help her remotely. N7 for myself. Played with both and without a doubt N7 wins hands down!!!!!

Looks like the Nexus 7 is winning more votes.
Since it's even getting more development.
I like aosp for that reason

Using MultiROM with Nexus 4?

I've converted my Optimus G into a Nexus 4 and am wondering if anyone has tried to use MultiROM with their handset. Apparently it functions for the Nexus 7 with what limited knowledge I have in reading up on it. The reason I ask is because I'd ultimately like to run stock Android on some form along with Ubuntu Phone which has released is developer version to our phone recently, and this can be accomplished on the Nexus 7.
Should I even bother asking at this point I don't know, but figured its worth a shot as I love flashing roms whenever is convenient. I don't believe that Boot Manager in the play store is yet supported for the Nexus 4 at this point and if it were I doubt it would allow for ubuntu phone.

I don't have an answer for you, but how is your phone running since the conversion?

Because Optimus G is G+4, but Nexus 4 is just 4
It has ran just fine until the last month or so. Using an early cm 10.1 room with capacitive buttons and 8gb sd recognition. Lately my phone will randomly power off for no apparent reason so I will look to refresh my handset soon.
The Optimus G is considered a more reliable phone over the Nexus 4 from what I've read. It also allows for storage beyond 16gb since the att version includes that on board and allows external storage also. There is a HD ask to allow for 16gb internal recognized which I have not yet performed. No issues with my phone but rare overheating which I remedy by turning off my phone for it to cool down for a few mins at best.

Hi there
I just bought a Nexus 4
And I was reading that OTG cable is not Supported -_-
16(12)GB is not enogh for me
Does any one know any Idea? that can help me get more space?
I don't want powerd hub. I need something Small fits into my pockets?
Is there any Small Wiless hdd or something like that?
Please hep!
Well, you either buy the rumored 32 GB Nexus that is supposed to come out next month, maybe, or you could use cloud storage for your stuff, like dropbox.
you could also check this out. works for the galaxy nexus, nexus 7, and nexus 10, so I'm sure it'll work for the nexus 4 as well

Ah I see well this is a better explanation than the NO. I just didn't read well enough. Well tough luck, buddy. You're out of options then
Here is a better explanation of NO
the micro SD kickstarter you just linked is a small OTG device. Meaning it won't work with our nexus 4

Again not feasible as it would not have any power required.
Those cards are designed for the likes of cameras where you don't have to plug into your PC to transfer files off it. As there is no SD slot on the nexus 4. You would require another device with an SD slot to power it

2013 nexus 7 problem, anyone?

I want to hear all your problem and is there any issue about the latest gen and the latest model number, do you guys still having problems such as multitouch, lagging. Or any hardware problem and also the gps thing?
And do you guys know what is the latest model type that any kind of retail store has for nexus 7 and also from google site?
Seems the most problem for nexus 7 is still coming from JSS15Q, am i right?

You do know that this forum is for the 2012 Nexus 7?
Oh wow sorry i didn't know that
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Its a wrong forum, but I've never had this multi touch problem on my 2013 n7, i guess it's a hardware problem, and yes jss15q is the latest!, you should do a replacement

Help nexus 7 2012 and Nexus 7 2013 one with WiFi issues

I have a nexus 7 2012 WiFi only and a 2013 lte. The first gen and my HTC one model sign into my work WiFi just fine. The 2013 lte model does not want to connect through the internet login portal.
All software is unmodified and completely stock without root on all devices. Both nexus 7s are running kit Kat. The lte model has a tmobile SIM. I've also tried to remove the SIM and connect... Still no good
Any solutions? Anyone here of something like this happening ?

Since the problem is with the 2013 model, you would be better helped by posting in the correct device forum. They will be more familiar and better suited to help with your issue. For instance, if it is a known issue with that particular device, most here would most likely not know about it.
