I'm sure this will benefit a lot of people but for me tethering is still the way to go. Free and saves battery on my N7.

Yeah saves N7 battery but not my phones lol

Always thought this was inevitable. Bet they've realized that they're missing out on sales to Samsung, because some want 3G or 4G built it, or can't tether due to their contract.
Happy tethering to my Arc, when I get another one of course.......... (Just have to carry around my spare battery lol)

I'm just wondering what price will jump to??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Ugh. This is good news and bad. Good news because I've always wanted a mobile connection. But bad because I already purchased this one!! Dammit. Guess this will be going on eBay soon.
I wish they would add a rear camera. Nexus 7 + rear camera + 3G would be a decent contender against ipad mini

Like all 3g/4g enable tablets, sales will be abysmal. Who in their right mind would sign up for a data contract on such a low price tablet and pay $30 a month?

I have a spare sim I can use but i see your point wouldn't be worth an expensive contract

Rats, really want 3g but already bought

People like myself who are seriously considering using the nexus 7 as a phone. I might not get the next nexus phone if they come out with dated specs like they have done with the past two.

Do you think the Nexus 7 would make a decent replacement for a phone?

I don't see it being a big seller. One of the biggest selling points is the price. Add another $150/200 and a data plan......big time deal breaker!!!

How so? It's not like I hold up the tablet to my head when I make calls. I just plug in my headset or Bluetooth. In fact people are amazed when they see me make calls on it. I get friends asking "you can make calls on that thing? " it's especially funny to see their face when I tell them it's free too (google voice + talkatone).

You would look stupid taking pictures on a tablet.

Nah.
I'm happy w/tethering from my phone. Saves battery, plus I never go over 5gb anyway. Besides, didn't Asus or Google sell the Nexus 7 at a lost? If so, then is this a way to recoup their loss?

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium

I'm not so sure a 3g enabled N7 would have a phone function built in anyway.
In any case, even if I had the choice on release I would have still gone Wi-Fi.

So naive. I'm already using it as a softphone and it works fine. CsipSimple works better than any other softphone I've used. This includes ALL of the crappy Windows softphones.

The N7 is portable but its not that portable to use it as a phone lol. Can you really carry the thing around like a cellphone?!! Wow I give you props if you can. A cell is still a lot more convenient when making calls. I understand Google voice etc but I dunno if I could do it full time.

How to use Note 2 as my GoPro?

Does anyone know of an accessory that would allow me to use my note2 as a gopro?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

I assume you mean a stickypod that allows you to mount it to things. If you mean to say that you want a waterproof polycarbonate case too... I don't think you'll find it. I use a gopro on my race car but can't imagine putting my GN2 in that kind of environment... too big of an investment.

If you're willing to risk a $700 phone, just buy a Gopro and do the job right. The note 2 wasn't designed to be used as an extreme sports camera.
Good luck .

Thanks for killing my wish guys. Loll all jokes aside thanks for the input. Chances are ill prolly just end up buying a gopro. Oh well, worth the try.

Good place to look is forums like paintball, motocross, etc and see if anyone is selling used if you don't want to pay store price for it.

I paid for tapatalk just a while back. But when I try to get it now they want me to pay again.. I paid for this one that comes up when I put tapatalk inn the playstore right now. I had it just days ago before I did the update. But here's the response from them. Pathetic. What would you guys do?

I had to buy it again too with the new update. Idk why they did that, was really Pissed but had to have it.

Sent from my Nocturnal Google Edition CDMA 5.0 using Tapatalk 4

Yep the old one is free (classic whatever that is)
But I have paid for the old one and tapatalk 4 and now they are both gone wtf?

It didn't do that to me. I purchased it a long time ago and was able to install it just now. I'd be passed to.

I just had an update notification that Tapatalk needed my permission to update itself. So I let it. Now my old Tapatalk 2 is gone and I'm stuck with the ****ty new version that's slow as hell. Might as well go back to the xda app

Yep the paid version of Tapatalk is now free.
Oh well, I have ad-away so it doesn't matter to me.

Yes but did you pay for tapatalk?
The one you have installed now is the free one..
Sent from my device with tapatalk who I feel is a dirty underhanded greedy ripoff software company that keeps asking for money for the same product. I'm not paying a third time (tapatalk, tapatalk 4) for tapatalk pro

I don't use taptalk I hate that app I tried it once and it sucks

Yes I did. A long time ago. So now I'm also using the free on as well? That's a bunch of crap.

Money hungry.
Here is a better explanation: http://m.androidcentral.com/tapatalk-now-free-hd-version-renamed-pro-additional-features

I bought it when they had the 99 cent sale to roll out the new one with Holo UI. I'd heard enough about it I just bought it to try it. Now I have the HD Version in my App pool, so I'm good here.
I still don't use it though. I appreciate the easy access to some things like "participated" and "subscribed" but maybe I'm doing it wrong... or not on enough forums that it supports. For the light forum use I do, and since it doesn't cover them all, I'm still just using my mobile browser.

YES!!!!!!!!

Agreed. The phone looks nice but I think the S4 is still better. I had a Nexus device once and it was ok. But the rom options are basically all variations of aosp/cm. It's nice having the option of TW as well.

Tri band lte and snap dragon 800. Sounds like a beast! This will be the best lte connectivity device. Its tempting.

The removable battery I could take or leave. I would've agreed with you about the SD card situation until recently, when I realized that I was using less than half of my card. I've also recently uploaded all of my music to Google Music, so my local storage needs are basically limited to photos and videos that I take with the phone. Even THAT isn't really a big deal anymore since it's all uploaded to Dropbox anyway.
Either way though, I'm willing to make the tradeoff at this point.

Good points all around.
I'm not up for an upgrade. It definitely is tempting. And I guess it would only be about $100 after selling the S4.
Just don't know if it's worth it. I can see where you're coming from after the issues you had yesterday.

There is a sticky for other device discussions

AT&T next question.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows. I got the note 3 on the next program, I love the note 3 it's a beast. Let's say another awesome phone comes out before my year upgrade. Can I sell my note and get that phone? or do I have to give them the note back after my year is up?

You have to have a trade in..and I'm pretty sure it has to be the phone obtained via the Next program
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

You only have to trade it in if you havent made all the installment payments.
Once you made all 20 payments its yours to keep
You could do 1 lump sum payment and pay it off. Then its yours to keep!

Thanks a lot. I was hoping it wouldn't be that. So I have to keep his for the whole year or pay a lump sum. That sucks lol
