[Q] Getting ALL settings to new Nexus 7 - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I just got a new Nexus 7, upgraded from 2012 32GB 3G to 2013 32GB WiFi. While I was able to get my apps over to the new Nexus, I am struggeling to get my system settings over. Basically the setup of the home screens, the welcome screen/login screen, the folders I had created on the homescreen etc.
Is there any way to get that stuff transeferred? A Backup/restore of some kind? Some sync?
Appreciate your help!!!

[Q] Auto Forward Text Messages 3G nexus 7

Hi,
I have recently been given a work phone and don't want to carry two phones.
I would like to keep my personal number so will continue that contract. I will set my carrier setting to auto forward calls to my work phone, but I would like a way to auto-forward SMS (text) messages to my work number, or email.
I have a nexus 7 3g and this seems like a good device to use as I can then still make use of my personal phone contract's internet access.
I installed the mms.apk app (thread found else where in this forum) and can now send and receive texts from my Nexus 7. But as it is not with me every day I want an automated way to get SMS messages to another number of email.
Does anyone know of an app which will let me auto forward SMS messages to a different number or to email? I'm happy to pay for the outbound message cost, but the only app I have found which *claims* compatibility is phoneleash and it does not forward anything.
Does anyone have a suggestion for how I can accomplish this?
Thanks
T.
You could just use an app that sends texts to the tablet like Cloud SMS. Then you could turn off the notifications on the phone.

Thanks for the reply, but I think I have not been clear with my request.
I have a personal contract which my friends know the number for.
I want to keep this SIM in my tablet but forward any SMS message sent to my personal number to a work phone, so that I can just carry the work phone.
I have found Auto SMS since my last update, but this is not compatible with the nexus 7. I will see if there is a way to get this app to work.
I will update if I get any further.

have you try mighty text? try that one first

Thanks for the further replies here.
I don't think mighty text will work, it seems to be a way to read and reply to texts received on your phone, but handled by a tablet or computer as the viewing device.
I need a way to auto forward SMS messages to a different number.
Regards
Tony.
Progress
OK, I installed auto SMS onto my touchpad and then used titanium backup to extract the application.
I've side loaded this onto my nexus 7 and so far my tests have been successful.
The auto forwarded text messages come through as
<0123 123123> Mr FirstName SecondName: Content of message
I can either call the originator back, or switch to a new message and reply back directly via SMS from the work phone.
Thanks

I have the same problem as you, but I can't find auto SMS or extract the application (Nexus 7 is my only Android device).
Can you please share it somehow?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: in meanwhile I found and installed it, works well

Hi, Paqueo...
Could be a 'sync' issue... (I assume you've checked you have a working data connection... and everything else works OK, eg., PlayStore, Gmail, etc.).
Have you tried going to...
SETTINGS>>ACCOUNTS>>Google>>[tap on your account]>>[check the tick box for 'Contacts']...
Rgrds,
Ged.
thank you...but,
That all checks out. I have a sync option for Contacts and another for People. The only app I have is People.
I have tried variations on both of these w/syncing/deleting contacts and re-syncing. I cannot adjust a contact on the Nexus.
Good morning sir, my problem is when i try to save new contact it was ❄showing an erro message below, you couldn't save contact change. I try several time but it not save, pls sir what will be the issue and how to solve it thankas

[Q] SMS application improvement (keeping draft) ?

Happy new year 2014 !
Is there another SMS sending/receiving application for Windows Phone 7 on LG Optimus 7 (LG-E900) ?
In fact, something misses in the default application : I can't save a draft of a sms in order to send it later.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I was thinking the same.. seems that ship has sailed...

[Q] [Help] Need fix with disabled SMS on Nexus 7 3G

Sorry, I can't find the right thread in this forum. So I decided to create one. Can someone help me enabling SMS on Nexus 7 3G? I really need it to register prepaid promos (such as unlimited internet and sms) using my tablet.
Also, if it needs root... can someone help me with the process of rooting it using Windows 8.1 (I am having some difficulties in rooting my GNEX on Windows 8.1 too)? Please help me on this guys. Please.

Scheduled text message problem

Hi all,
for 2 days straight I was trying to figure this out and It seems that I’ve checked everything but there is no option to look at your scheduled messages if you want it to change or delete. Could it be that the phone offers option to create a schedule message but not to edit one? Seems like impossible for me. There should be the way out of this. Desperately looking for a help.
