Do I have to download the 2nd file if I've already downloaded it from ubuntus website for my nexus 7? (the one with the word phablet in it)

If its the same file name it should work. I just got that file from the Ubuntu site and am uploading it to my devhost.

I thought about building this until I saw that there isn't even support for 3G data yet (for any device). That and most apps are non functional. I'll definitely start building this once the data issues get worked out upstream.
