Saying hello - Nexus 7 General

Just wanted to say hello. This is my first tablet. Just sold my galaxy note and bought this yesterday immediately afterwards and so far its awesome.
Of course the first order of business was to root and install a custom ROM
Anyway I miss the note but this is great so far and will get better as the mods come along. See y'all around!

Welcome to the club now that you've unlocked & rooted, you should try out the custom kernel made by motley. Even better performance than stock, which is great already.

Looks nice. I think it would be nice to have a clean ROM on the Note.
At this point I think any ROM developer would be welcomed. This forum is just starring so don't be shy bring you're work over and become famous like Blackstar in the development section =)

Thats because the note 2 will be out soon

I know im a but jealous also but I think as long as we have root,.good speed, and a bigger screen we made a good choice. I love the note I grabed my old phone yesterday and couldn't believe the size difference
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yeah we'll see about that. With the reaming Sammy just took from Apple, I doubt the note 2 drops anytime soon. Glad I got my note now before everything comes crashing down.

Since TMo pulled the Note from their site and Costco now has them as "closeout" prices I wonder how many units TMo sold. I am glad I got one when I could. 1 billion in fines, WOW!

So they were stable enough to use as daily drivers? Do you have a att note running on tmobile or a an native tmobile note?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Native tmo note. I used them all last night for a few hours.
Only reason I don't use them as dailies is because wifi calling is a must for me with the crap signal I get from TMobile everywhere.
Aosp / aokp roms are the ones I worked with. I couldn't get an miui rom to work. I so want the customizaTion that miui offers. Maybe I'll check out the boot.imgs later and see if I can't get them to boot.

You can only do it from the internet version of XDA. At the bottom of the screen under preview post there is a check box asking if you want to start a poll. Check it. Than you follow the instructions the rest of the way. I expect a thank you

post which rom are you using and reason for it?

hello to all of you buddies...
i am opening this thread so as to make easy for everyone to get views about various roms available for nexus 7...i think it will also decrease the counts of threads asking "which is the best rom?"
pls also post the model (3g or wifi only) so as to avoid confusion with the post...
anybody fell free to post your views about kernels also...
I use Rasbeanjelly with Motleys modified kernel for kexec, so I can multiboot with ubuntu.

Not rooting a nexus device is like owning a Bugatti Veron and not using the the key to unlock the performance mode lol. Just joshing you a little. It does do well stock I must say.
Right now I am cm10.1 but sure I will be a flashaholic like I am with my bolt. Lots of ROMs and kernels to choose from. I am like a kid in a candy store

Paranoid android 2.99 on my Nexus 7 wifi - I use it over stock because of the hybrid ui options and control over dpi on an app by app basis. Other stuff I like is 'fullscreen' mode option on the power button pop up thing.

I know it, but I bought it when my laptop was out of commission due to HDD failure and by the time I got my HDD and realized I needed recovery discs and finally got it going again I didn't want to unlock my boot loader and lose all my game progress. So as long as I'm satisfied with stock I'll use my g'nex for flashing purposes

Just like a 'best ROM' thread, this is thread useless. You can easily see what ROMs are the most popular by looking at their threads in the Dev section and seeing the level of activity. Knowing that still doesn't tell you what ROM is best for you. Only you can decide that based on your own needs and usage.
Sorry folks.,
One of the big no-no's is asking which rom is best.
This, can only be answered by installing several roms, and deciding which is best for "You".
One can read the threads, and see which rom has the least issues, and also see what features are best for your needs.
WE can't make that choice for you. If we could, then there would only be "1" rom for all users, based on the highest amount of posts.
In the end, YOU have to decide.
Thread closed, in an effort to prevent flaming.

Lol, that's funny, my name is Mike and I was about to say the same thing. We'll see if my habits change on this phone. It's so good on stock already.
Name is Rick. From SATX (GO SPURS GO). Came from Evo3D then SGS2(for 5 months). Love this phone. Hate to see the occasional lag, as this phone should be butter smooth by the specs, but i'm sure it will be cleared up in an update/tweak/kernel fix. And yes, I am a flashaholic.
Haha, I'm Mike also.
Just picked up a white SGS4 yesterday because the E4GT was dropped about a foot -- enough to mess up the power button.
Looking forward to the greatness of custom ROMs and mods, especially since the devices are so similar across carriers!

Hi, my name is Lizze. I'm also a flashaholic & my favorite color is not pink, either
My name is Travis. I've owned smartphones all the way back to the PPC6700. I'm coming from an EVO LTE and flashed every Rom from Blues and Jazz to Mean Bean. I am new to Samsung. So far so good. I've already rooted but haven't done a Recovery or custom Rom yet. The other thing I didn't like was the fact that this phone ships with over 650+ mb of bloat. I didn't want to root but they pretty much changed when I felt the phone was sluggish. After I removed just half that bloat, the phone is how it should've been out the box. I thought TouchWiz was gonna be too IPhonish but it actually is a pretty solid OS especially coming from the bogged down Sense HTC OS. I look forward to the development of this phone.
Name is Oohaylima. Went from the Hero, to the Evo 3D and now, of course, the GS4.
Single Core ---> Dual Core ---> Quad Core.
Hi my name is Atman and im also a flashaholic. Lmao. Havent rooted this baby yet cuz of work but I will soon, came from the s2 to the s3 and now the s4, but I wish some of the devs would upgrade. Lol but the devs we already have are doing some great work! :thumbup:
