God drat, why would he choose to script it for one device...Kynetx posted:Yeah, that's kind of what I thought, but why no admin rights for WP7? No idea, I've never touched a WP7. However, on the Exchange box you can allow incompatible devices to continue to connect regardless of the compliance on the security. You'd think Microsoft's own phone OS would be compliant though. I have no idea.

Anybody else having trouble accessing Google Now on the N7? In the last few days, Google would rather send me right to the search screen when swiping up rather than show me any cards. Swiping up just lets me begin searching directly on Google. Asking Google for the weather or something will bring up a single card, but I can't seem to find my way back to the Google Now homescreen... full disclosure: I'm probably doing something really stupid to cause this.

Quick Nexus 7 question. Can the navigation buttons be set or modded to be left justified, instead of centered? I'm thinking of getting one but the nav bar layout makes me irrationally upset.

As mentioned earlier in the thread, Fabrik is a decent cloud ebook reader that will sync from your Dropbox folder on your PC to all your devices, as well as between devices.

I'm thinking of getting one but the nav bar layout makes me irrationally upset. Different ROMs offer this, but I didn't find a way to do it in the five minutes I had it stock. Any suggestions for a news ticker widget for the Nexus 7? Pulse's widget is nice, but Apex doesn't play nicely with resizing it.

It looks like the Exynos 5 doesn't kick as much rear end in the Nexus 10 as it did in the Chromebook.  Other benchmarks show a similar decrease in performance.

Don Lapre posted:Why is there is there so much lag on the new 10? That's just The Verge site. Everything on my nexus 7 works smooth as butter but The Verge acts exactly like that — I can barely scroll around at all, sometimes it doesn't even register scrolls, etc. I think they dynamically load their content as you scroll to save bandwidth or something and it fucks with chrome. I'm guessing this is the case because sometimes when I scroll on the N7, there will be no content there, and it will suddenly pop in. Again, this only happens on the verge's site. Kind of annoys me that they knock the browser for acting weird when it's just their site, and that they knock the app ecosystem while The Verge themselves haven't put out a tablet-optimized android app. The app ecosystem problem is a real catch 22.

My Macbook, iPad, my i5 w/ 8GB of RAM Windows laptop. The mobile version does better, but for some reason it doesn't serve that version to Android tablets (user agent related, I guess). it's an interestingly designed page, but there's something weird about it technically.

The Verge actually 100% freezes my Ivy Bridge Notebook for a good 5 seconds (completely, no mouse response or anything.) I have no idea what they are doing on that site.

I format my bigger removable media as NTFS, as it is generally faster over USB. It would take a day or more to transfer data off of it to my server or another drive, format it as FAT32 and then transfer it back over. It's just handy and kind of impressive.

The verge runs with full sized jpegs (6mb~) and a poo poo ton of javascript code which lags tons of machines. It stresses a lot of machines that really shouldn't be stressed.

Not sure but adding an SSD to my Core2 Duo desktop mostly eliminated that 5 second pause (less than a second now) so it must be loading a bunch of cached stuff. Never seen any slowdowns on my Ivy Bridge laptop with an SSD so I guess that's the threshold for decent Verge performance. Wonder how it runs on an iPad?

My machine is a quad core i5 with 8gb of RAM and dual SSDs, so the slowdown is definitely a Verge issue, not my hardware.

Does anybody else get absolute crap for standby battery life on the Nexus 7? The screen on time seems to be pretty much as advertised, however I seem to lose between 10 and 15 percent battery while in standby mode over night. Other than this issue, I have no real complaints about the directions Android has gone over the last year since I primarily switch to iOS. If anyone has experienced this issue, what have you done to correct it? The only thing I can think of, would be tasker, but I'm not sure if that is the easiest/most ideal solution or not.

I did. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary...but I went to bed last night with 14% battery and woke up to a dead tablet. Maybe I just need a few cycles to calibrate my battery.
