when is the 3g model out from amazon ?

 

[imrankhan]

Yeah, that another popular one..
i use this:

but it really doesn't matter which you use...
I'm just thinking what's the best solution for this..
do you think they'll have an update that can fix it?

the fact that some (and not all) devices has the issue, might mean it's an unfixable hardware issue..

Only solution for the guys having problem here is to wait for Asus to launch N7 in singapore and hope that they offer international warranty.

how about pixels? what app do you guys recommend?

No one knows when it would be launched.(except if u r a googler )
But should be out in another 10-15 days. (just guessing)

I did think of that...
But it'll take like.. 6 months before it even gets sold here?

I would assume you have the option to RMA it back to the US.. but no point doing it now... I guess I'll see how it goes and what google's solution is... then decide from there-on...

if there are enough ppl here with the problem, we might be able to arrange something as well..

 

[deathdeaf]

just to check, anyone interested in getting screen protector and cases ?

Tested mine and it has no multi touch issues. For GPS, how long does it take to lock on to a location? Mine takes about 10-15 seconds.

This is the app to test for the multi-touch issue

Cheers!

I also think that is the best approach if the problems are not so severe.
If I'm not wrong, the last one was launched in Sept 2012. so there's a little optimism.

What is the output of the N7 charger? Better not to going beyond the power output of the supplied charger.

I'm gonna poke here one more time..
i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one with this problem..
i'm wondering what's the best action to take for fellow singapore users...?

Wait a bit and see what Google has to say about this problem. Hopefully it's a software glitch like this article mentioned: http://m.androidauthority.com/nexus-7-2013-multi-touch-misfire-255316/

Yeah i hope so...
and some says the issue is on the new JSS15J kernel instead of the older JWR66V kernel it was originally on before you update your device....

Guess over here, best is to give it a while and see how google resolves the issue...
