Hey guus. I got my nexus 7 yesterday, rooted it, and flashed aokp. However, I've been noticing small white dots appearing on the screen. I'm able to scratch the off with my finger but they keep coming fast at a fast pace? Is this some kind of defect, or is it common? I know every device has at least one common problem.

Ok so called staples, brought it to them and they said it was a knon issue on nexus 7's and my screen has a defect. They gave me new one one the spot. So mods, can you please close this thread, its not needed anymore. Thanks!

matey really i didnt mean it:laugh: , just a little joke so its actually like shards coming off the screen? never read about it seems really weird ,. hope all goes well with the new one bruuu :good:
its the protective coating separating there was someone else having a similar issue but it was one big spot at the bottom of the screen where it was coming off.. Did you ever clean the screen with ammonia products like Windex .This can cause issues with the coating .Other people have commented on dots being on the glass itself as well..
So yes i have heard of this but it sounds like yours is the extreme of the condition..
glad you got it replaced

I've had my G3 for about a week now and I absolutely love the device. I'd like to have a discussion about build quality of the device since there's some things I've noticed with my 32gb D855 model that I'm wondering if others have had also.
1) The digitizer is quite noticeable, I guess my eyes have adjusted a bit now but it is there and quite noticeable when I pay attention
2) The back plate is screaming poor quality: it is very creaky near the top above the infrared and also around the volume down key you can really press the device and hear it creaking like a Samsung device
3) Unfortunately after caring for it with my life somehow the back cover got a huge scratch..I don't possibly know from what..a fleck of dust in the air or Something but still this shouldn't have gotten such an ugly huge scratch so easily!
4) Dust/sand or dirt is easily getting into the bezels right where the screen ends
5) As mentioned in another thread I've had the spontaneous shut down but let's not delve into that on this thread
Anyone else want to share their experiences?

I think the device feels wonderful when im using it. But I do agree that one drop and this thing is gonna be in trouble.
I managed to put a 2inch scratch on the back and I'm so carefull but managed to scratch it.

Just got mine yesterday but #2 is not an issue for me. The back is very solid and doesn't have any flex at all. I am going to put a slim case on mine though and I already have a tempered glass screen shield.
Well, mine seems pretty solid so far (got mine on Monday), the only thing from your list i noticed as well is the dust at the bezel, but it's not really in the bezel, it's just sticking at the edges, because the bezel is slightly higher than the screen, that's a bit annoying, but not really bad, because it can be easily swiped away. Except of that, I'm pretty pleased with the build quality so far, looks and feels premium, just the back doesn't feel that slick, because of the plastic, but it's still not bad at all.
Oh, and the back buttons are slightly too hard to push, but that's also not a big deal.
So, great device, I'm a happy owner^^

Do we have the same device?
1: I can barely see the digitizer unless i shine a bright light into the screen.
2: the back cover on mine fits perfectly, to the millimeter. The only creaking i hear is if i try to twist the device at either end which is acceptable as its a removable cover so should have some give.
3: that is unfortunate
4: Is this not normal of all phones. They all have a small gap between the glass and phone body. its hard to avoid, but not very big on the G3.
5: ive not had this issue fortunately.
Ive found the build quality to be very good. everything fits very nicely. and its a big step up in quality from the nexus 5 which already had a decent build quality.
Had mine for 6 days, comparing this to say an s4 or s5 is like comparing a Citroen 2CV against a Ferrari, the difference is immense in terms of both looks,build quality and feel. Loving it ?
Just got mine an hour ago. I'm coming from an S4. This phone feels cheap in comparison. I'm not sure if I'll get used to not having the true black that one gets with an AMOLED screen. But hey, it's only been an hour.:beer:

It really is a big difference between AMOLED and IPS screens. There completely different technologies, keep in mind though the IPS screen is more closer to every other screen you look at every day so its not like you dont use them already.
Im not liking how the G3 is get bashed around recently, if your not happy with it then i suggest people go back to samsung. Ive had it over a week now and the phone grows on me more every day. Once roms and tweeks come out this phone will be even more amazing

So my GF got me the 9 for my xmas gift (I got her an apple store card to outright buy the new 6, opposites and all)
Anyway I am having trouble finding a decent affordable case and glass protector for it. Im all over amazon with no luck. All the case seem like garbage and the reviews of the screen protectors say they arent real tempered glass and break easily.
Anyone bought a case they like yet. She got me a gift card to amazon with it to buy a case and I hate using my devices (all nexus) without cases on them. Wish spigen made a 9 case.
I bought this one it works great (so far) only had it for a day.

Let me know how it turns out. I figure it was on sale, so if it eventually gives out I'm not out much. ( it may always be on sale though so who knows).
There are so many cases on amazon it was hard to decide... I'm still waiting for mine to arrive but I went with this one.

Bumper goes around the entire tablet. The magnet is really strong, and no metal clips or stylus holders. It's a very clean case.

I think that I had either that case exactly, or something very similar to it, for my nexus 7, and the feature where you could make it stand up by itself was nearly useless, because it constantly fell down. it forced the tablet to stand at a nearly vertical angle, and it would just fall flat on it's face. Granted, I don't remember which brand, but I do know that I preferred to not use it.

Not a bad case- fairly priced, considering how much they want you to pay if you are considering what best buy and radio shack wants you to pay for things like that (From Belkin, etc).
However there are NO review.... always a little sign to be cautious.

its a cookie cutter case, meaning poetic has the same thing but with less designs. I'm holding it right now, yes the magnets are strong and it is a very nice slim case. the bumper goes all the way around with openings for the hard to find buttons , and the USB port and lower mic. with tiny opening for the upper microphone hole (both of them, yes the N9 records stereo vids)

screen protector is good quality. its a VERY thick dense acrylic urethane. Not glass like I want but I cant seem to find a glass one yet. Most say they arent in the reviews. For now for the price this is a really good one for the money.

Love this case. Just like the one I Have on my nexus 7 thats been on since 2012 and kept it new looking.
Fully protected, not heavy at all, and the stand is great. For 12$ its well worth it. love clam shell cases on my tabs so I get the comfort of know the screen is covered when I carry it. This is def a good case.
Hi, I'm a diamond setter just had a idea to set some stones on the Nexus 6 tought I share with community.

That's strange. After watching those disassembly videos I had the impression the metal part was quite thin that was shaped around the plastic frame. If you could deanodize the frame to its natural color it would look superb but that's just my opinion.

If i do that it will not shine, the aluminum doesnt shine, no matter how polished i made the engravers. So its better to leave it the same color as the all the edges
