I did do that at one point. However, if I did it at a point where the battery actually had run down I still would have needed to re-charge the device -- which I did not even try until today. Nice to know though.

I was one of the early pre-orders and received my Nexus 7 last Tuesday evening (7/17). Like most users, I checked it out for problems: screen, mic, etc. Everything checked out fine. I did some customization, downloaded some apps, tried out all the new features. Everything worked well. I had...

I got mine from Google Play. It worked fine for about 6 hours and then it just died :( Can't turn it on, can't charge it, is not recognized by PC ... dead, dead, dead. Sending it back for a replacement, but the process seems stacked against me if they decide, under their opinion, that my...

It seems consistent, on the phone they tell you: "I spoke with them this morning. They are sending me a replacement and I get to keep mine until it arrives." BUT when you get an email from them it states: "If you elect to send in your device and receive a replacement after reviewing the...

I am in the same situation. When I talked to the "Google Play" person they told me that I have 21 days after I get the replacement device -- which sounds reasonable. However, I have not seen anything in writing. I sent an email earlier this morning to try to verify this. If I get any new info I...

I am in NJ and I got mine on Tuesday. However, it died after 6 hours of use and I have to send it back :(

Are you able to turn it on and run the device? Play with it a while and see if things improve or get worse.

I tried several times at 30 seconds and a couple of times for 90 seconds still no good :( What kind of bothers me is that I was told that on my return, I have to put the new/replacement nexus 7 on my credit card. If they deem that the warranty was voided, they will charge me for a 2nd device! I...

Dead Nexus 7 I had a similar experience. Played with mine for about 6 hours. Testing things, trying things out, downloading apps, etc. Put it to sleep and was preparing for bed myself. After a few minutes I decided to download one more app. Tried to wake it up, but it was dead! Tried all...

Dead Nexus 7 I got my Nexus 7 on Tuesday evening. After about 6 hours of playing with it and checking things out I decided to go to bed, so I put it to sleep (not turn it off). A few minutes later I decided that there was one more app I wanted to download, so I went to wake it up and it...

Quickboot vs. ROM manager I started out with the standard 3.2 on my Xoom Wifi with a nagging system message to update (I am guessing 3.2.2) So I followed thread 1249798 and now am unlocke & rooted! I am also using Recovery: Eos Recovery R6 I still get the nagging system message to update...

Thanks, scsa20 My actions come from okantomi's step 2.3 which says "Test that ADB and FASTBOOT works." In that step, okantomi suggests to use a command window and type in 'adb devices' This worked fine for me as I stated. okantomi however, does not give any example to test if fastboot works. So...

I have a wifi XOOM, running 3.2. I have the android SDK on my windows machine. I wanted to test things out before I went into the root process. I set USB bugging on the XOOM. I then connected my XOOM to the PC and did an "adb devices" It showed the device. So far, so good. I then tried...
