Title: My Screen
Post by: twdawson on September 27, 2012, 03:50:12 AM
I bought a Nexus yesterday and within 24 hours i cant use the tablet when its on charge as the screen becomes unresponsive, and as soon as i take it off charge some apps launch on there own and after a few minutes it settles down.
This is my first android tablet and i am off to a great start.

Is this a common problem as i am now waiting for this to be returned and i hope i get a good one next.

Welcome twdawson.

Sorry to hear your woes about your Nexus.

I have experienced problems with my screen when the battery is low but not when fully charged.

Perhaps a replacement will be better.

Where did you buy it from?

I got it from a mail order catalogue that one of the family runs, no problem getting a replacement but its just a hassle sending this back and waiting for the new one to come.

With out of the box issues, I would just get a new one.

Yeah it only took 3 days from making the phone call to it getting here. Not bad at all but I have a major problem in that it seems to be stuck to my hand in some way.
