android 4.4 Kitkat arrived on my Nexus 7 today. I'd been checking ever now and then so I was happy to find the upgrade was now available. There was a message saying the upgrade was available through Nov. 26th. I never remember seeing anything from previous updates.

What would you recommend?

On the Nexus 7 (2013) with JellyBean 4.3 I've found that I can't open PDF web links automatically. Ipad Air does this automatically, but, on the Nexus 7 (2013) I can't access them. Do you have any recommendations? P.S. There doesn't seem to be a way to download the link. It just opens in a...

Apps Apps are an issue with me. While I adore my Nexus 7 2, lots of apps come first for the iPad and only secondarily for Android. Then many are phone based, not tablet based. I'm planning to buy the iPad Air for the larger form factor and for access to some strategic apps for web designers...

Helpful link. Thanks for posting!

B&H is a great place to order equipment from. I've found them both reliable and polite!

Return it. You have a defective unit.

I wish it were as simple as this. All I get when I try to restore from the Android is this.

What does "flash the factory image" mean?

This is all I got when I did this. BooHoo! My baby is sick. She needs to go to the Asus doctor.

Thank you for the suggestion, but I noted your reference was in the developer forum and I'm not a developer. If I tried this and something didn't work I'm sure the vendor wouldn't take this back.

No, it just happened by itself. This shouldn't happen in the normal course of use.

Tried that...it didn't work. Got a little android guy with his belly open with a triangle saying no info. I could see no way to get back to factory condition. Now all I can do it to depress the power and volume rocker and have google sign comes up followed by the pulsating x. It never boots or...

When I press the volume down button, it cycles through these options: start, start rebooter, recovery mode,power off, I pressed the power button when it was on start. Then google and the pulsating x come up...but so far it does not boot. If the unit is going to reboot, how long should this take?

My Nexus 7 is just 2 days old and today I found it wouldn't boot. The X came up and then nada. I tried holding the start and volume buttons down and then I got this boot loader screen. Sorry I'm a novice and have no idea what to do now. Please advise!:crying:

I got the same one. It's nothing fancy, but does the trick. I also like the fact that it has an elastic ring to hold a stylus. For $5 it wasn't a bad buy.

You're never going to believe this but the stylus seems to be defective. I've bought several of this brand before and never had a problem. The bloody thing doesn't work on any of our devices. Until I found another stylus I could try, I didn't know this was the issue. Back to Amazon it goes.

The best place to find cases now is at Amazon. Most of them come from China, but they will do the job, at least in the interim. They're typically under $15 with shipping. I got this one for $5...

My Nexus 7 arrived today. :) Unlike my 2012 version, the screen doesn't work with my Boxwave stylus, which is new. http://www.amazon.com/BoxWave-EverTouch-Capacitive-iPad-Stylus/dp/B000BUI76S/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376112795&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=bxwave+stylus Touch seems to work fine. Any...

My new Nexus 7 (2013) is due to arrive soon. I have an OTG cable and Nexus Media Importer software from the Nexus 7 (2012). Will this software and OTG cable work with the new Nexus 7 too?

I decided to keep things simple and ended up purchasing this case at Amazon along with a stylus. DB Case for New Asus Google Nexus 7 II 2013 Edition Cover Case in Color Red This comes with a lanyard too. There's a pocket on the front that should easily store my stylus, OTG cable and flash...

The is the case I really want: Premium Cover for Nexus 7 (2013) http://www.asus.com/Tablet_Mobile_Accessories/Premium_Cover_for_Nexus_7_2013/ There is no information I can find either about availability or price. Anyone have any information about when this might be released?

This looks like it's the same thing...but price is $5.99! http://www.amazon.com/i-Blason-Generation-Elastic-Multi-Angle-Warranty/dp/B00E4WSGOM/ref=pd_sim_sbs_op_1

i-Blason The New Nexus 7 2 II (2nd Generation) New Gen 2 cases are just beginning to show up on Amazon. I just ordered this one, which comes with a stylus and rear camera hole...in the right place, I hope...

This is our first replacement for the Nexus 10. My hubby downloaded some developer apps, but nothing fancy going on at this end.

No Google logo or power vibration, just the quick battery meter that shows a full charge. It only stayed on a second or two when the charger is connected.

Yes, this is what we are doing. Replacement device has been ordered...3-5 day delivery. Google assured me that they have "new" replacement units for this purpose. I was concerned because the Google Play store shows they are sold out of the Nexus 10. No problems with my Nexus 7, but different...

30 sec. on the suggestion of Google Play tech support. They also asked us to hold the volume and power buttons on for the same time and nada!

Our Nexus 10 is less than two weeks old. With a full charge it will not power up. When I attach the power cord, it shows a full charge but then the icon immediately disappears. Ideas? Anyone else had this problem?

Magnetic Hazards What concerned me when I looked into the Magnetic Pogo Charger was this disclaimer: "Magnector contains a magnet on its head. Although it is designed not to cause any data loss on magnetic media such as floppy disks, credit cards, magnetic I.D cards, cassette tapes, video...

I agree. What a missed opportunity!

Poetic slim line case - new batch doesn't fit. I was really disappointed after getting this case yesterday: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AD6W50O/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 The Nexus 10 would only fit in the case if you put it in upside down so that it covered the power switch. I only...

Finally came this afternoon! Yea!

Late Delivery Ours was supposed to arrive yesterday, but UPS screwed things up. Now it's supposed to be here Monday, Jan. 7th...so much for 2 day shipping! "Shipment Progress Location Date Local Time Activity Oakland, CA, United States 01/05/2013 5:53 A.M...

Wow, no info and suddenly the Nexus 10 is available!

Me, too. This is one place where the N7 really disappoints.

Not really when you consider the7 inch form factor. The Nexus 7 is pretty easy to hold and a rear facing camera would be a great addition, especially if it were centered.

Much to my amazement I discovered that the charger for my new Sony RX100 pocket camera also charges the Nexus 7! I don't know about you, but the assortment of connections, adapters, power cables and chargers can be intimidating to keep straight. Maybe there are others that would work too, but...

Works like a charm! Buying this app was a good way to use part of my $25 Google credit. It easy to view, photos, videos, docs etc. although one of my video hiccuped a bit. I bought this OTG cable from Amazon. High quality and no issues with connector length. Prime eligible so it came right...

Nexus 7 optimized apps Time to add more apps to this list! Please post your recommendations.

Really are comments like your Mom and Aunt Nancy really necessary...sounds a bit irrelevant unless you're trying to make this a sexist issue.

It dependents on how you want to use the Nexus 7. Before I bought the Nexus 7, I checked out my usage on my 16GB Asus T101. It was less than 4 GB. If you're just viewing content, doing email, reading a couple of books you can probably get away with the 8GB model. The reason why I say this is...

Apps are the key to the ultimate success of the Android OS and ultimately the Nexus 7. Thanks for starting our list! I'm hoping more of you will add your input.

Any that are optimized for the Nexus 7. When you get on the Play Store, most of the apps are designed for phones. I think we need a good list of apps that are for the 7 inch form factor of the Nexus 7.

What no recommendations...?

What apps are optimized for the Nexus 7? Looking through the Play Store and searching Nexus 7, many of the apps aren't optimized for this tablet. I was hoping I could elicit your help and perhaps we could create a list here.

Taking pictures with the Nexus 7 front facing camera isn't easy if you want to point the camera away from you. Nonetheless I thought I'd try and see what it would do. The hardest part was trying to figure out if your finger was correctly placed on the Camera app button. Even if you have...

Which OTG cable are you using? Where did you get it?

My goof, thanks for pointing that out!:( Could you please tell me which apk you are recommending? There are several on the 4share.com site. It's curious that the procedures you recommend work with other Flash content, just not for Amazon Prime streaming video. Now that Apple has announced...

Why spend all that money when you can do the same with this one? http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-Leather-Automatically-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B008IEGS4C/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1344127864&sr=1-6&keywords=nexus+7+case http://www.pbase.com/beaucamera/image/145195954
