After using the nexus 7 for some time now, if it had calling capabilitys I would use that it as phone without a doubt in my mind.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Using GrooveIP and attaching it to my Google Voice account, coupled with a bluetooth headset like you typically have paired with phones, I often DO use my Nexus 7 as a phone. :good:
I've made quite a few calls on my N7 over wifi with GrooveIP. Looks funny when I hold it up to my head though.
I tried using GrooveIP earlier and it crashed the first time I tried calling my N7, but worked fine the next time.
Is it possible to change the ringtone in use though?

LMAO! When I read the title of the OP, I instantly put the N7 to my ear to see how it felt. I just lol'ed a little. Didn't even think about it. Then I saw your comment...LOL.

But you don't NEED a BT headset/earpiece right? That's just so others can't hear the person on the other end correct? I ask because I purchased Groove IP a while back to make calls on an old HTC Hero that had no active cell service, so I may try it on the N7 someday when I'm bored.That way I can call my girlfriend without my wife seeing her number on our cell phone bill.
Could you really imagine standing in a busy street holding it to your ear?
People would laugh. They would point and laugh.

I already use voip for some calls so if the n7 had 3g it would replace my phone, but without 3g it's not practical.
i am totally down for a 7 inch nexus phone now!

The Nexus 7 doesn't support an external mic...it has been confirmed in another thread I believe.
Edit: External hardware mic isn't supported. Apparently a few people have been able to get a bluetooth headset mic to work but only with GrooveIP. It sounds like a driver issue with bluetooth. I definitely doesn't work with my Nexus 7 and Skype.
this thread makes me think of this

Im seriously considering downgrading my phone to a feature phone with bt tethering and doing away with my android phone now I have a nexus 7.
the other option is some kind of 3G hardware hack :good:

Settings/Audio Echo/Ringtone Override
I use Platinum Tel pay as you go for my cell phone service so having GrooVeIP installed on the 7 saves me even more cash when I have WiFi. I'm not much of a phone user (190 minutes) so I manage to keep my bill around $8 a month.
Once it's set up properly it works pretty good.

This is clip type, there is another type which you hook on your ear set one, but im wearing a glasses, that why i think its not suitable for me. This babe i buy for rm99 which equal $34 dollar.
Just use it for 1 day, so far it is good. Receive call, making call sound is very clear and good. How about you guys? Any others good brand?
Heard about the one that can display name contact person, but i could not found one here.

Does anyone else notice each time if you left your tab and you are away for 20 minute and when you come back to your tab, it is not paired anymore? You have to mnually paired it again. Is this normal? Any others way to make sure its always paired automatically?

Using Jabra Stone and I like it, no need to worry to break the earhook when wearing tight jeans (keeping it in the pocket), the reception is much better than the original ones coz it fits my inside ears better than the original. battery is good since it always clipped at the charger

Anybody tried the jabra easy go? Would be purchasing this soon. Its kind of cheap here in the philippines. @ php 2250 roughly $45 you could connect to 2 phones simultanously. I have another line (blackberry) for business and my personal line using the galaxy tab. Question here is could the easygo work for skype? I have an old jabra bt135 and skype wouldnt course through.

I use these... I work outside and wear glasses. These lg's have served me well... Decent stereo sound, and pairs well with my sprint tab and evo. All controls work and they are comfortable for all day use and don't have a behind the ear form factor that makes a lot of bluetooth headsets very uncomfortable for glasses wearers.

I also have mw600, but the LG HBS-700 looks really interesting. The mw600 is OK, it supports multiple devices and has FM radio, but I didn't like the earphones just dangling around my neck. I also find it hard to control the volume with mw600.

Hey guys,
As the title says, this topic is just for all of you out there who already received our beloved tablet.
Please post pictures of your Nexus 7 in action, the package contents and a mini review and/or first impressions of it.
Cheers!
Mine arrived, order Thursday at 15:30 arrived Friday 09:30 from eBuyer.
I sold a Nook Tablet to purchase this, so I allready like the 7" factor, but Chrome is amazing on this, really great browsing experience.
Google Now does not seem to work very well in the UK yet or show anything useful without voice.
Got my £15 free Play credit instantly, but no sign of the Transformers Movie on my 16GB version.
i like that.. but applied ur screen protector yet? or any case to go along?
Forgot to mention the Serial number peels of the back stupidly easily, I thought it was a sticky plastic cover, but no the whole serial number peels off, So I stuck it to the plastic film and put it back in the box.
So, can anyone confirm the audio quality via 3.5mm jack? Is it as bad as what some are saying?

I'm not a great judge, using some cheap Sennheiser headphones, and its not amazing.
I need to have it on the maximum volume to hear it, its very quiet and the quality is not great.
Not amazing.
Shame. I was all set to buy one, but since I'll primarily be using it for watching films and listening to music using headphones, that's a bit of a deal breaker.

Yeah, that's pretty disappointing. I wasn't too bothered about the external speakers but I was expecting half decent headphone audio quality. Ah well, guess I'm not gonna buy one now.
Wait for the custom ROM's. I am sure they will improve that sound volume.
I have mine... a little smaller than I expected, but still a great size for typing etc
Some apps have problems with the tablet mode though. I can see why they went for the phone layout, the tablet mode when vertical is too small to use. As for smoothness, the launcher and system ui in general is much improved, but there is no difference in third party apps. Touch sensitivity and response is incredible, however. They may have to be updated, Im not too sure. The screen is also a little washed out.
However, I still love it and can't wait to spend the rest of the day on it xD yay!

Its the quality I'm more concerned about I'm afraid and no amount of custom ROMs or DSP enhancement will overcome poor signal to noise unfortunately.
Meh, I might still give one a demo in store, I've got a selection of headphones - maybe it will sound ok on some of them.
Didn't hear anything about audio problems before, hope it won't be that bad though, did you try any other headphones?

It may be a bit pricy, but I recommend RAM Mounts. Their X-Grip mount held my GNex through a rollover. If the X-Grip II and the X-Grip III hold up half as well as the original, then they are definitely worth the price.

Looks interesting but I gather you need to remove any cases to use the suction mounts. So if you all will have your N7s without cases then I guess this would be fine IMO.

Thanks for posting this! It looks great, going to buy soon.
Here's one I got at Fry's last week. http://www.frys.com/product/7133592 It's only $26.xx on Amazon, so be sure to do a price match to get the price down. It serves my purpose of getting the tablet out of the window and down where I can use its GPS functionality. I live in Illinois, and we have a rather vague law about things in the window that obscure vision-there's no real standard to be met for what constitutes a violation, so it's a discretionary call. This was brought to attention 10 years ago when a widow in a Chicago suburb get a ticket for having rosary beads on her mirror.

Hi,
Your LG nexus is fine. The internal hardware is built to resist water and a few other dust particles. The flickering you experienced was only because the water was in the way. However keep your phone away from fire, oil based lotions and dropping. Enjoy your Nexus.

I finally got some time and mounted my nexus 7 in my car's dash. I shot a short vid of it. Not much talking cuz I hate the way I sound.
Once I clean everything up I'll shoot another short one of the install particulars, how the tablet removes, the amp, etc...

Looks nice. Just thumbs up and left a comment.
Is it removeable?

Very clean install looks great, was it difficult to install the torque hardware?

Thanks! It is, it is held in with neodymium magnets, but currently I have to remove the bezel to free up the plugs. I have future plans to modify the bezel to allow it to be lifted and pulled out with removing it.

Thanks! I just ordered the cheapest Bluetooth ODB2 plug on amazon. It would have been super easy but the odb2 plug on my car was downward facing so the giant wireless odb2 transmitter was hanging down and interfering with my legs. I unscrewed the odb2 plug and relocated it. I then plugged in an odb2 extension cable and routed it under the center console down to the parking brake area so I can see all the blinking lights, heh.
The Torque software was a breeze to link up to the bluetooth transmitter, and setting up the car information was easy too.
Used this adapter (or one that looks exactly like it heh)
Good job. Very clean looking.
Did the N7 unlock itself when you started it? How?
Right now, I'm just using 3 clips that holds mine over my stock unit but seeing more and more dash installs, I may be ordering me a spare bezel soon!

I purchased an app called "Tasker" that performs configurable "tasks" when events happen. I configured it so that when AC or USB power is connected to bring up the tablet, set timeout to 23 hours 59 minutes, turn on wifi, and some other things I want to happen. I also set it so that when power is disconnected, it sleeps after 7 seconds, turns off wifi and bluetooth, and some other things.
Next thing is to get some kind of anti-glare screen deal... i like it clean like this, but the glare is bad sometimes.
Nice ....

Thanks, Yours too!
I didn't think I was going to need to root my 7 but my "Tasker" app isn't killing the apps I want killed when I turn off the car. You can use root to kill them but only if you have a rooted device, of course. So I'll probably take care of that tonight. Going to have to read up on how to do that.

Is really easy to root
Go to nexus7root.com follow the video and it shouldn't take you that long. Though everything will get deleted once you unlock the bootloader. That's the downside

I've updated the description on YouTube with the list of stuff I used and links to examples. I've also added some Apps that I thought were particularly useful for this project.

Thanks! Will do.
Nice job.
I keep threatening myself with doing something similar but it's bugging me as to how to hold the Nexus in place. I have a 2003 Impreza and although it's double-DIN, it's just a gaping hole, nothing to mount it against.

Thats kinda how any of them are. I'll take some pics tonight and post them of how I mounted it. Basically I took the double din kit I bought and, using a dremil with a cut-off disk, sliced off all the stuff down to the basic bracket that holds the kit to the car's dash. I then cut off two pieces of paint stirring sticks (the free wooden ones you get from home depot) to go across the bracket and epoxy'ed them onto the bracket. I then drilled 4 holes the size of the magnets and epoxy'ed them in place. Then I epoxy'ed three strips of hobby metal strips with holes in them (you get them at Lowes where all the bins of nuts and bolts are) to the back of the nexus 7.
any plans for bluetooth handfree phone calls?
I recently got a Nexus 7 also and plan to do an in-dash install. After looking at a number of projects like this around the web there is one thing I cannot find a really good solution for: hands free Bluetooth for my phone.
Ideally I would like to use the tablet to make and receive calls via Bluetooth through my phone just like you can with many Bluetooth enabled in dash decks.
I have looked at a couple apps to aid in this like: Tablet Talk, and GrooveIP
While these could possibly provide the feature the remaining problem would be the microphone built in to the tablet.
Have you thought about this for your install? If not, does anyone else know of a setup that would provide an ideal hands-free Bluetooth experience for making and receiving calls?
This looks good..I'm hoping to do something like this once I buy a car..
