Please Fill Out Your Nexus 7 Complaints Here

I've taken the time to make this thread to hear about any complaints people may have about the Nexus 7. Keep in mind, this thread is NOT for PHYSICAL defects or imperfections. I'm talking about complaints about the performance, any lag at all, crashes or freezes, horrible battery life, performance with major 3D games, or any bugs you may find, post them here ! :good: Complain all you want about it, let's discuss it. Is the Nexus 7 what you were expecting ? Is it BETTER than you expected ? Is it good for the price ? Are other tablets better in any way ? Say it !

Is this really necessary?

I thought it would be interesting to know. Thank you for replying !

I had a yellow tint on the screen when I use the device for more than 30 minutes.

Thanks everyone but per the op, this thread is not for discussion of physical defects.

The fact that every store within 50 miles of me that had any in stock is sold out.

Yeah, I've heard many people who bought the Nexus 7 from retail stores had problems with the screen. I would imagine that the new unit had no problems ?

I am not bashing this thread but there is an almost exact thread that already exists in the Q&A section.

Check it out in the pictures and let me know what you think; I don't have any frame of reference for the quality of these and I don't want to have to be out of a device for a long period of time for an issue that doesn't really bother me.
In the first pic, you can see the LEDs on one side. In the other two you can see how the brightness changes from left to right.

Install GSAM Battery Monitor, so you can check your screen time etc.

So 4 hours from 100 % and now 49%

I came from the note 2 and thought it would be a nightmare but im actually very impressed

Guys i just factory reset then nothing change get me

*Points at apps syncing the internet, constant HSPA connection, 2hours screen time, 4+ hours phone calls*

You definitely have a rogue app killing your battery. My mytouch has better screen on time then that. It also goes against what everyone else with the device have been experiencing.

Screen on time?

Quick battery life question for you guys. When your battery is almost totally depleted, what does your screen on time look like? 3 hours? 4 hours? I have a GS3 and for me it's somewhere between 2.5 and 3 hours. I assume the One would be a bit better due to the LCD screen instead of the amoled.

I've been getting about 2.5 hours of screen on time. Generally amoled screens use less power than LCD.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

Really? My gs3 does 4-5 hours. And yes, I use the phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

I'm pretty sure amoled uses less power also, particularly with darker colors.
My screen on time has varied depending on usage. Mostly I have been playing games, the 3d ones tend to take a lot more juice. Certain less intensive games and regular browsing/texting/videos seem to draw a lot less. I'd range my screen on time from 3-5 hours depending on this.

So I'm having a hard time finding the screen on time. I go into the batter setting, check usage and scroll down below the apps to system apps and cannot find it. Am I missing something? I apologize for the ignorance but I'm having a hard time.

I guess I just assumed amoled screens used more juice since mine is so awful. Either way I'm getting a one.

It is not avail without an app try GSam battery monitor works well

I have hit 5 hours 51 minutes at the peak, but 4+ hours is easy. I'm always using battery saver though. I never game, so having the phone at full speed isn't important to me

yea judging from what I've been seeing on the forums you should be able to get around 4 hrs screen on time. I'll be kinda mad if i get less than that with moderate usage considering I get 2-2.5 hrs screen on with my GS2 at the moment.
Im getting my phone today so I'll report back after a few days of use

5 hours a day is normal. 5:40 is peak.

Way better than stock. PurePerformance appears to make a significant difference, but have only been using it for less than a week.

The battery life with holoblur its around 4 hours in use of the screen with wifi on

Battery life 1 week
Hi,
I own my note 3 now 3 weeks and use it primarily as an organizer (acalendar+) with phone-capabilities. I dont use big internet-bandwith. So I usually use the GSM-network and avoid UMTS. I rooted my device to be able to reduce processorspeed via juicedefender as soon as the screen is switched off, As I found it unacceptable to live with a short screen-timeout, I installed "screen off and lock" to switch off the screen manually as soon as I am done.
I am syncing my Lotus-Notes calendar at work with google and sync once an hour (controlled by juice-defender) via gsm.
I usually use the calendar twice an hour (as I enter most of the appointmernts in Lotus Notes I do only reading)
Bluetooth is switched off, GPS is switched off
with this I enhanced my battery lifetime from 2.5 days to 7 days
Last week my note 3 survived 1 week without charging. This week I am at 68% after almost 3 days (see attached screenshot)
