Google Nexus 7 Thread - Part 2

[kEvinErd]

nakasig is good old wifi only N7. Tilapia is 3g N7.

Eh? I thought Nakasig / Tilapia both = Nexus 7 3G while Nakasi / Grouper = Nexus 7 WiFi?

Guys, i just busted my N7's screen. Didn't it properly on the table and it took a dive face first to the floor. Read asus charges $260 for screen replacement and Ali Baba has replacement screens at $150+ a piece. Anyone has any lobang? Thanks in advance!

Just spent $100+ SGD on the portenzo bookcase... Now have to wait for the case to be made and wait for it to arrive to Singapore >.<

Worth the wait bro. Fully satisfied with my case.

nakasig is N7 3G. Tilapia is then the wifi one.

Edit: My bad. Nakasig/tilapia is 3g. Nakasi/grouper is the WiFi.

i almost got it, but decide to get speck . how the case ? did you get the magnet option ?

Case is not bad. Sturdy. Like a hardback book just that the inside is a n7. it doesn't make it fat cause its just a thin sheet of hardboard. It has a magnet at the side to make it go to sleep or awake if that's what you're asking. Though I find the strap to be a little troublesome sometimes whenever you wanna close and open it. This can be solve by tucking the strap into the case. Overall I'm quite satisfied with my case.

Do you have a cover for your N7? Because I felt that if you got a Asus cover , if you drop facing first to the floor, the cover will protect it.

I dunno why I am still consuming data when I have set to airplane mode and wifi. The top guzzlers are Google play and chrome. In the space of a few days the have chalked up almost half my monthly quota of 1gb free mdata already. What's going on?

 

[royfrosty]

which kernel goes well with slimbean? for both performance and battery..

I'm using linaro. Try that. It does over clocked to 1.6ghz. But so far on battery impact is OK on standby or normal usage. But if you play games. Haha. Like water. It packs a good performance when you need it.

The other day I was trying the CyanogenMod ROM with CyanogenMod kernel. I found a few frame rate lost while playing NFS most wanted.

But after I use linaro kernel. Holy crap its on par with my note 2.

Chrome constantly syncs if you sign into it with your desktop account.
Google Play may be automatically updating your apps?

How do you find your how you've reached your quota? Via the in-built android app? or via the m1 app?

I use the in-built app. Is there a way to track from m1?

Anyone know if the Poetic Slimline case for N7 is sold anywhere in Singapore?

nakasig is N7 3G. Tilapia is then the wifi one.

Hahaha.....I knew the "g" would throw some people off.

That is correct. But most prefer to discuss in terms of grouper and tilapia. Nakasi/Nakasig is too close and ambiguous.

 

[xusykl]

what's a good price for n7 32gb wifi if getting locally?

Depends on how much u willing to pay loh. Even if ship in urself now the cost is probably around 310-320 w/o the forwarder promos.

honestly...if the seller has ready stock I think S$350 is a VERY reasonable price.

Lol. I rather nakasi/nakasig. The g to tell the difference between 3g or WiFi.

Ya it's indeed very confusing. It's bad enough there are two different names for the same device. What's worse is th nakasi vs nakasig.. Haha *
