Eh, I tried installing another widget and it went without a hitch.  So I guess I'll have to email the dev about Battery Solo.  Too bad, I love that widget and have it on all of my devices.

Yeah, I tried rebooting Jay, and as far as space... It's a brand new 32GB model, it SHOULD have the space.

But won't a reset make me have to re-root??

I was starting to set up my new tab but then I decided to root.  The process went smoothly but now, some kinda strange things are going on.  Before root, I had my favorite widget, Battery Solo, installed.  Since rooting wiped all of that I'm trying to re-install now.  But, every time I try to download, I get "insufficient storage available".  Any ideas what's up wid dat??

OK, things hve settled down a bit now.  I uninstalled the HD Widgets from my Gen 1 N7 and tried downloading/installing HD Widgets on my new tab and it has gone smoothly.  Maybe when it's a paid app/widget you can only have it on one device at a time?  Dunno, but now I'm a happy camper again...

Does Android still use that bigger size male tip? Kind of strange. Have you looked in the light and made sure it was the bigger size?

Nah, the sizes are nominally correct.  It's just the small size usb connector that has a small defect that I can't seem to fix.  It just burns my onions that GP won't just send me another cord so that I don't have to give up my tab for a couple weeks turn around...

So I got my Gen 2 all nice and set up with the Nova launcher, my HD widgets, a couple of browsers I want to try etc.

I turn it on this morning and it hangs on the colored X boot screen.  Now this is the stock tab, I haven't fooled around with anything much, just added some apps.  So after waiting for it to come out of the boot screen for a long time I finally shut it back down.  This time, when I turned it back on, it didn't hang but it's back to mostly where it was new.  That is; no HD widgets app and the screen is back to it's stock looks.

I guess maybe I better get a hold of the HD widgets dev and see if he knows for sure it's compatible with 4.3. 

I'm hoping this is just a little glitch in getting things set up and not a sign of instability!  I'll see how it goes... I'm loving the looks of this new tab but I hope it will be as reliable as my old one!

I know there hasn't been much activity here lately. But I changed my homescreen.

I've made it into a Fallout Pip-Boy



Using UCCW, Minimalistic Text, Simplistic Text, Phantom Music Control and a Pipboy 3000 live wallpaper.

Enjoy!



W0W, now that's a happenin' home screen!

New Nexus 7 General Discussion Topics (2nd Gen) / Very Cool! But...

My 2nd Gen N7 came Friday and it is really cool!  I'm having fun loading it up with my favorite apps, widgets, etc. but I had one small 'glitch'.  The cord that came with it to charge it up won't properly attach!  The large end that goes to the charger is fine but when I try to plug it in to the tab, it won't go.  Now I haven't sat down and looked at the connector with a magnifying glass yet but without forcing it, it just won't go.  Fortunately, I still have my Gen 1 charger that works with this on just fine.  And the cord will work with the new charger.

So I called Google Customer Service and was told that they can't just send me a cord, or just the charger and cord.  I would have to pack up the whole tab with everything that came with it and they would send me another, I guess.  But I just think (and I told them so) that's lame!  They should be able to just toss a cord in an envelope and send it to me to make me a happy customer, but alas... no way!

So I do have cords I can use but I figured it might go a different way.  Live 'n learn...

New Nexus 7 Accessories (2nd Gen) / Re: Asus Case?
« on: July 31, 2013, 08:46:28 AM »
For the 1st time in my life, I succumbed and became an extra-early adopter of the new Nexus 7. Usually I wait awhile, so this is new experience. Went to BB on Sunday, picked up Nexus 7, and it's sitting at home in box because no cases or covers that I like are available yet. Anybody know how long it takes? I see the Asus Premium on the Asus site, but no way to get one. Don't see an Ottercase or anything else combining protection and aesthetics. For you who have adopted early before, how long does it take for accessories to surface?
Thanks.

Hey good job joelgeez, glad ya jumped on board!  I don't think you'll be sorry and you are at the right place to pick up all the info for your new tab...

I went with the one that jimmybirdie mentioned; but I wanted purple so it was more like 3 bucks + shipping but that's still a great deal if it turns out to be a decent product.  Good luck with your search and welcome to the forum!

Hmm, I see the OTA waiting but how 'complicated' is it to re-root CBers?  I'm holding off on the update 'til I know the procedure to get back to my unlocked, rooted device... 'course I'll have my new Gen 2, 32GB by Friday so I'll prolly want to just put this one back to stock.

Well, I went with the purple one so it came to 9 bucks, but that's still an OK price if the case turns out to be any good... Thanks for the heads up!
