Hey all,
Been having an odd issue with nova launcher on my N7. If I try to move items around, when I try to move anything on my desktop, it immediately goes back to its original location and asks if I want to edit or remove it. Is there a setting that I am missing somewhere that is supposed to stop accidental item moves or is it just because it hasn't been updated for JB?

Mine does that too. What I found out though is you have to move it fast. Like long press and the second it lets you move it sounds you move it sounds then it's fine.
I had this too but after i flashed a rom/changed laucher (one of these), it disappeared. Now its completely gone and smoooth.
You can fix by going under Nova settings and updating to the latest beta.
Thanks for the replies.

DON'T RESPOND UNLESS YOU HAVE BOTH NEXUS DEVISES

I have neither device... but if I understand right, you have to have the device's NFC chips right near each other to do this. If this is true, did you do that? (The N7's NFC chip is around the X in Nexus if I heard right).
I haven't gotten mine to work, I'm not sure if its my tablet or phone but I tried it with my phone recently to my moms galaxy nexus and it worked. I know there's sweet spot on the tablet but I've tried everywhere and I can't get it so idk.

I have the galaxy Nexus with rooted jelly bean and Nexus 7 with stock jelly bean. NFC works flawlessly. Are you tapping it right? The NFC chip is on the battery of the galaxy Nexus, do you have any third party battery that might not have NFC? If you don't, tap where the battery is onto the top back portion of the Nexus 7.

The NFC on the Gnex is on the battery and on the N7 it's around the "X" in "Nexus" on the back. Place them together in these spots and it should work.

I finally got it to work, I think it's where I was placing it I guess, I tried all over before but guess I found the sweet spot.

It's in and above the NEXUS logo. See page 97 in the guide book.

I have two Nexus 7 (one 8gb) and one Nexus Galaxy.
All are stock ROMs as of this posting.
The N7s NFC work between each other flawlessly and effortlessly. No fudging around looking for the NFC.
Neither N7 can do an NFC exchange with the Nexus Galaxy.
Both N7s take a significant amount of futzing around to get the initial NFC buzz and tone. Neither will actually start an NFC transfer to the NG.
Inverse is true.

transfer of files using beam is new to jelly bean. It works fine using a galaxy nexus and a nexus 7 both running jelly bean (I've transferred photos without issue) using Bluetooth and SNEP.

I have both the Gnex and the N7. I was able to transfer a picture from my phone to the tablet using NFC.
from my galaxy s3 to the n7 i get:
NEW TAG COLLECTED- text/directshareerror
from n7 to gs3 more luck. IF the app is not on the phone it sends me to play store, but for photos it keeps saying the gs3 wont accept large files... ITs pretty hit or miss... more miss then hit
good advice

I also own a Galaxy Nexus and a Nexus 7. Like you had said i held my galaxy up to the X on the back of my nexus and it worked. It seems a little touchy, i have to try it a couple time before the "touch to beam" screen comes on. Does anyone know what things Beam is compatible with, ive only been able to beam webpages and google play app pages so far.
Works fine between my Galaxy Nexus and N7. My GNex is on JRO03O , the N7 is stock rooted.
As others have said make sure you put the battery of the phone up to the "Nexus" on the back of the tab it will say touch to beam when you're in the right spot.
When you first unwrap your tablet, there is a rectangle box where they lable NFC behind the tablet, tap that spot, and I do have both devices.

Well i cant use mine. I have the nexus 7 and a gs3.
They find each other, the transfer bar shows up on the galaxy but nothing more. The transfer never really starts and after a while it shows transfer fail.
Weird

Alright so to start off I am looking to buy a tablet for my dad for Christmas and have been to a couple stores looking at various tablets and must say I am not to impressed with screen responsiveness on TW. Pinch to show screen previews lags a good amount on tab 2 and note 2 from what I saw. The smoothness overall just left something to be desired. My question is would I be better off getting a nexus 7 and tossing on a custom ROM or getting the nexus 10 and keeping stock. I realize I could put a ROM on nexus 10 without problem, but I would rather not risk breaking a $400 gift. The nexus 7 at only $200 and being developed for a year means I will certainly mess with it. Sorry to ramble. So in your opinion would it be better to get a nexus 7 with a custom ROM or nexus 10 that will stay stock. Thanks for your time

well it depends the nexus 7 is more portable and cheaper then the nexus 10 but the nexus 10 does have better specs but the nexus 7 is more than enough for most people so i'd get the nexus 7 and flash a rom like paranoid android onto it and just give him that but its your choice
Do you notice any lag or poor response times with the custom ROMs? Tw is horrible imo, but throwing on a 3rd party launcher should cut down considerably on the lag

Holo Launcher HD comes highly recommend, free from Google Play the pro version doesn't cost much either
Hello Everyone, I just bought my Nexus 7 about a week ago. I was wondering what kind of apps programs would greatly benefit the Nexus 7. What kind of apps to you guys suggest to use? Are there any apps that you guys find vital to the nexus 7? Also I am running android 4.2.1 and the camera asp that gives me the stock camera back isn't working too efficiently (nexus 7 camera fix app from play store) I get a lot of lag from this. Anyone know why? PS I haven't rooted it yet.

People are not replying because the answer to all your questions can be found right here in the n7 forums. They have all been covered extensively, and if you searched for them, you would already be fixed up. Waiting for people to answer them for you will actually take much, much longer than just searching and reading. Not trying to be rude, but everyday, there are two more post with the exact same questions, and none of them take the time to read the other.

Does anyone know of any attempted or successful ports? Mostly for the multi window feature.
