I took out a free trial on the Android magazine, and it's rather good.
https://play.google.com/store/magazines/details?id=CAowq9HnAw&feature=my-library
I don't think there is much we are missing now in the UK. We have the full content set, and if anything, more than the US (as we have scan and match on Google Music...)
Every magazine I go to on the Store states that 'This item isn't available'. I am using a rooted N7 with CM10 and the Play Magazine app installed.
How much are the subscriptions?
And whats the difference between subscribe and purchase?
Does purchase get the specific mag, whereas subscribing charges you automatically everytime a new issue is released?
Whats the advantages of subscribing?
THANKS!
Android mag is 32quid for a year sub ,normally in paper 52 + the mags by them selves are 2.99 as opposed to 5 quid !! Can't lose !!!!!!!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Great, but that would only make a saving of £2? For buying a year.
I'd rather just buy episodes that look appealing than save £2 and have to have them all.
Because if theres 2/3 issues I don't really enjoy, thats another £6.
Although I agree that buying on Google rather than paperback is a win win.
Probably a silly question but, if I subscribe to the free trial, download the magazine then cancel the subscription, do I lose the downloaded magazine?
On the other hand, why don't I just try it?

+1 to this.
And additionally if you get the trial, once the trial has ended does it prompt you or does it just automatically start your subscription?

I believe it holds the money for the trial period, and if you don't cancel, then money is then taken...
If you purchase, it's just that issue (in which case, take a free trial, read it and then cancel), if you subscribe, it's all of them. I'm guessing you can only try each magazine the once....
I did a trial subscription for the Android mag and it shows:
Android Magazine - FREE_TRIAL You will be charged £26.82, plus tax, at the end of each 1-year billing cycle, starting on 11 Jan 2013.

I am confused. Looking at Autocar for example it is showing as £2.99 a month (its a weekly magazine) or £99.99 for the year.
Aside from the fact that it is £89.99 a year direct from their website, why would you go for the yearly option?
I just paid 32 quid for the year for android mag as opposed to 50+ quid to me that's not bad !

I have signed up for the 30 day trial for the android magazine. It is a good read but there is only 13 issues so I don't think it is such great value. Also with Zinio you can get the same subscription for £27.49 for 13 issues which is 15% off the cover price. The price is £32.99 from the play store. Worth the trial but that's it!

I've noticed the same questions get asked over and over again, so I thought a main post with the answers to the most common questions would be helpful.
1. Should I buy the Nexus 7?
Hell to the yes.
2. Will I still get the $25 credit if I didn't order from the Play Store?
Yes, you will. It is not dependent on what store you ordered it from. The first account that is logged in to the Nexus will be credited the money. I cannot confirm how long this promotion will last, or whether or not it will only be given to people who preordered.
3. When will I receive my Nexus 7?
GameStop has officially released the Nexus 7 to those who preordered with them. Google Play orders also started shipping as of July 13th. Ebuyer shipments have been released as well in the UK.
4. Does the Nexus 7 support MHL?
No, as confirmed by Engadget.
5. Does the Nexus 7 support USB-OTG?
Yes, but unfortunately mounting USB storage natively is not supported. However, it is possible with a root. It does support USB-to-Ethernet and most keyboards/mice will work.
6. Are there any serious problems/defects with the Nexus 7?
Members have confirmed that some Nexus' have a flickering problem, especially when using Chrome, or with a white/gray color on the screen. Also, as confirmed by Android Police, there is a problem with ghosting, or image retention, but some have suggested that this is normal behavior for an IPS display. However, Google and Asus have not been able to recreate these issues independently, which suggests that these issues may only affect pre-production units from Google I/O and review units.
7. Does the Nexus 7's home screen rotate? Does the Nexus 7 have Tablet UI?
No, the home screen on the Nexus 7 does not natively rotate to landscape orientation as on past tablets with Honeycomb and ICS. It uses the more traditional Phone UI, with the pull-down notification tray. However, members have confirmed that with a root it is possible to change the DPI to 170 or 160, which allows the homescreen to rotate into landscape orientation, and also brings on a more Hybrid UI, which allows some elements of the UI run in tablet mode, but not all. (Thanks to nerfman100 for clarification)
8. Does the Nexus 7/Jelly Bean/Chrome support Flash?
Officially, Jelly Bean is not a supported OS by Adobe, and Flash will be taken off of the Play Store on August 15th. This in turn means that the Nexus 7 is not does not officially support Flash. However, many members have confirmed that Flash does work fine when installed on the Nexus 7, but bugs will be expected. Chrome, the default browser, does not support Flash.
9. Can I still cancel my preorder of the Nexus 7?
If you ordered from the Play Store, Google has confirmed that it is too late in the process for most to cancel the order, and will have to reject the package on arrival if they want a refund. It has been suggested that this is only for people who ordered prior to July 1st, but this cannot be confirmed. Most other retailers are allowing cancellations at this point.
10. Are there any good deals on the Nexus 7?
Some online, out of state retailers such as B&H and J&R are selling the Nexus 7 with little to no shipping and no tax. Your order can also be combined with coupons for these companies. If you would like to save on shipping and be able to turn in old games and electronics for credit, ordering from a local GameStop is recommended.
11. Can I buy the 8GB version anywhere other than the Play Store?
No, the 8GB Nexus 7 is a Play Store exclusive.
All of the answers are based on my own research and observations. If there is anything incorrect, missing, or something that should be added, please let me know!
This is a great idea. I knew most of this stuff but it is great info. Well done.

No, the home screen on the Nexus 7 does not natively rotate, it is always in portrait orientation. This also means that there is no Tablet UI in Jelly Bean itself.

Please change this to mention the Hybrid UI. You see, certain elements of the UI run in tablet mode, but not all. And saying that the portrait-only launcher is the cause of the phone UI doesn't make much sense. It would be wise to rephrase that. :good:

It could possibly be different in the UK, but I have contacted GameStop, B&H and J&R about it, and they have all said that they are offering the same incentives as the Play Store. An official Google confirmation would be nice though.
If you want to know how Hybrid UI works, this G+ post by Dianne Hackborn is a very good read.

It was no question for me. Macmall let me use Amazon payments (keeping my cc info to as few a places as possible.) Linking in from fatwallet to macmall gave me 2.5% cash back and my cc gave me 1% so, ordering it from macmall got it for 240.29 after all is said and done with no tax and free shipping. Can't really beat that.

Some people seem to be reporting that the screen is popping out of the bezel, which seems a bit worrying and is putting me off slightly until I can get clarification. Comments spread across this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1770919
When you set up the Nexus ( I bought it from Staples), it tells you that you get a $25 credit if you activate Wallet with a credit card, but having done so, I don't see the credit anywhere in Play...where do you look to find it?
Lets vote. What REALISTIC compensation do you expect from Google Play Store for their mis-handling of their Nexus 4 launch. Lets take a poll!
- Free Shipping
- Free $25 gift card from Google Play
- Free 50GB of Google Drive Storage
- Free Bumper Case
- White Nexus 4
Problems with launch:
1. No clear time to order. Many people missed their orders
2. 3 week delays for orders that were placed minutes into the store opening.
3. Crashing website, repeat orders.
4. Limbo-ness
They already waived the shipping fees for the people on 3 week delay.

I think this is beyond technical difficulties. They didnt even determine a launch hour leaving many of us waiting 3AM in the morning to order a phone. I think they mis-managed things, not just the technical breakdown of their google play store opening. Think about how many people with their chrome auto-refresh plugin that checked every 5 seconds for an update added on to the load of the google play server. Its really mismanaged and its like they were asking to be DDOSed with crome plugins.
Do we really need loads of threads whining about this?
I'd like a Samsung 830 256GB SSD for my laptop. Please.
I want them to make me the ceo of google.. lol.. i ll ship every nexus to every1 for free.. haha
I expect them to refund shipping cost.
Since the shipping cost is counted before tax is calculated, I expect them to refund the tax on shipping, too.
Interesting how many people only want free shipping. Maybe it should also be upgraded to next day express mail.

I wasn't sure where I should put this, but since it's a great program for Android/Chromecast I figured here would be a good place.
If you have the Amazon App store you can get Plex for $0.99US or $1.09CDN depending on which store you use. For those of you who don't have it yet, it's basically a steal at this price. You should definitely jump on it!
Helps solve a lot of the local casting issues without a bunch of workarounds.

I notice the Amazon version is 3.2.9.113 whereas the play store is 3.2.11.118.
I don't buy apps from Amazon, but it's the same apps from the same developer, right? Amazon is just slower to update? If you buy from Amazon, does the phone recongnizes that there is a new version? And then update from google? Does it work that way? I guess what I'm asking is who's going to tell me I need an update? The Play Services or Amazon's own prompt?
Yeah it's the same devs. It is just Amazon that hosts the updates and not Google. So they may be a bit slower. It will work exactly the same way though.
You need to keep the amazon app store installed as that is where the program will update from.
The prompt etc. will all go through Amazon.

Thanks for the tip (button pushed)!
I've been holding off (re-)buying Plex on Amazon until the price came down. I've gotten so used to only buying buying an app once on my Android/Play devices. The thought of buying an app again just for the one Amazon Android variant device in my home pisses me off. Plex, however, is worth it to me. Now this gives me a way to easily allow the baby sitter to play movies for the kids.

Haha, yeah I hear ya.
I keep the Amazon app store kicking around because they toss in paid apps/games/bundles for free relatively often. It's not really different from the Play store except that it's Amazon and not Google. If I'm going to buy an app I'll generally use the Play store, but occasionally there will be deals (like Plex) on Amazon that are worth it and I don't mind jumping on.
Amazon is terrible with keeping apps up to date. I downloaded Magic 2014 there and purchased some in game content. Now it's still stuck on a version 10 months old that doesn't support new features or content. For $1 I'm less worried, but I would never spend real money there again.

I could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure you can blame the developer for that. Developers have to submit their apps to each "store", generally Apple, Google, and then Amazon. If they neglect to do so in a timely manner, you get outdated apps.

Well.....Yes and No....
Even in cases where the Developer keeps both up to date the Amazon App does not automatically update you and will not always notify you of one until you run their App...
Google will almost always automatically update you to the latest version except at times where the permission requests have changed significantly enough to require manual accepting of the new permissions.
And if your flashing custom roms a lot the other thing about Amazon is that unless the app is installed it not only won't update but the license will expire until you log in to Amazon at least once after every flash.
While it's nice to save money for the $3 or $4 I prefer to get most (if not all) of my Apps from Google.
But I sure understand why people are willing to go through the extra hassle to save a few bucks in this economy.

I think there's more to it. Something is blocking developers from getting their updates submitted or approved in a timely fashion. Maybe there's a confidentiality agreement that explains why the details are not clear to the public, but for some reason even apps from reputable developers are chronically behind in updates on Amazon.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
One of the main reasons I installed Amazon appstore on my various Nexus tablets and phones is for the daily free apps. I have over 500 + so far and some of them are quite good, including those I already bought from Google playstore: swype and switfkey, Runtastic pro, SketchBook pro, etc., and tons of games. And don't forget about the Amazon coins promotions. I have over 500 coins so getting Plex for 99 coins is a no brainer because its free!
Also I remember, a while back, having Android devices that don't include Google playstore nor is it supported. It's much easier to side-load Amazon appstore in such cases. Even with all that I still think Google Playstore is more refined and works great on Google "approved" devices. Amazon has been making some major improvements to the UI lately though.
He said it will start around 8:00-10:00am pacific time.
I was under the assumption tomorrow preorders were only for google play store. No??
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yeah same. He took a while to look into it then gave me that info. Don't take it as a fact.
That would make my day.
Certainly am not staying up all hours of the night to nab a pre-order what with work and all.
That Amazon's offering a pre-order doesn't surprise because (1) Amazon's Italy site is currently listing the N6 for pre-order and (2) they've offered the Nexus 9 for pre-order as well. The ultimate question is when they'll open it up. Could it be the case that they allow orders before Google? Some how I doubt it, but who knows.
Also, I just finished up a chat with Google Playstore. Very tight lipped. But the woman "suggested" I call Best Buy. I said that was the only retailer that would make sense because dialing 1-800-APPLE would probably not be as informative. She liked my joke and gave me a $10 playstore gift card. Now time to pick out some movies for the wait!
I just chatted with Amazon CS and they said they have no information on it.
Ahh I don't understand why we need to wait for Google employees to get into work for this a website to begin accepting orders. Turn on a rule or something. "If midnight allow orders."
Has anyone explained the logic here? (I'm sure it's only slightly more complicated than that)

I have cheap tax where I live and this is how much it would cost for me from Play Store.
$649 + 45.43 tax (7%) + $13.99 shipping = $708.42
Although it could be argued that ordering from the Play Store has it's advantages.

I've been using the Google rewards app since February of this year. Don't know how of you use it. But I've gotten close to $12 in Play Store credit so far, which is awesome for the few seconds it takes to answer the surveys. So I highly recommend the app for anyone interested in some free Play Store credit.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.paidtasks
Yup love love this app :thumbup:
I've been using the Google Rewards up for a couple of months now. As vikramjatt11 said, the surveys take just a few seconds of your time to complete and you get free Play Store credit. I've earned roughly $10.00 in credit and finally decided to use some of it on AccuWeather Platinum yesterday.
Love the app. Gotten roughly $7 in credit. Just about crapped my pants the day it gave me $1 just for answering the last time I visited my work.
I have been using it for about a year now and I am $20 in GPS credit!
Hoping GPS has the 21 days of Christmas apps sale again like they did 2 years ago. It was something like 10 apps a day for 10 cents each. I got so many good apps then, I believe I have 30 out of the top 100 paids apps (plus lots more)
yep, can't beat free credit on google to answer a few questions....love it
Not too shabby. I have plenty of time to take short surveys. It's not a ton of money, but it'll add up....and score me some Play Store apps. Thanks! :good:
Used to use that app, but it stopped giving me credit for surveys.
Wow I been using this app for a few months and all I got is $1

Love this app, but I wish Play Store would let you use the balance even if it doesn't cover the entire purchase.
I was all set to give this a try but then it sounds like you get a few cents every few weeks and it takes couple of months to even get a dollar or two. Really doesn't seem like it's worth the effort.

Really? I just did a survey today about Bloomingdales and I got $1 just for this one survey.

Very nice. I've been using it since it was first released and I don't seem to get the dollar ones. I get a lot of 20cent surveys which are very short. Must be the luck of the draw. Still worth it I've gained a few bucks over the deal. It's so simple why not.

Its all about demographics. The more of those free surveys you take, the more they can detail the paid surveys to you. I've had a few $1.00 surveys, but mostly 20-something cent ones.
But you are right, its still worth it. I've bought a few paid apps for a few minutes of my time each month.
I just installed it last night and had a survey about 15 minutes later. Earned a $1 and I think I answered 3 questions.

So soon? lol that's awesome. Tons of 99 cent items to purchase. I save up and purchase the costlier Play Store items with my rewards.
I have a total of $5 since the summer. It's a really awesome app. Gives you free money to take survey.

My wife and I both use it.
I learned that females tend to get more surveys and higher payouts when we compare.
Oh well, either way it is still free google play money :good:
