Do members use a screen protector on their device? I'm asking because the screen is suppose to be scratch resistant.
you wont scratch it through normal use. |

Just a quick question about tethering. My HTC desire supports this feature so if I turn it on can I use it tether my nexus 7? Am I right that it will come off my data allowance of my mobile contract?

Mine arrived yesterday (16GB) and I'm very pleased with it. It's lightning fast - much faster than my PC!

That's a very interesting comment to me as I haven't got a tablet and always thought they were seriously underpowered and therefore slow devices.

I feel the same way as ffa1, for some things it does seem a lot zippier than my desktop. Perhaps that says more about my old desktop though! Certainly wouldn't describe the Nexus 7 as slow in any way!

Yeah, my desktop is pretty old too to be fair! I think the graphics chip in the Nexus is much better than the dedicated graphics on my PC's cpu.

I would like a percentage for the battery, I have tried a few apps but they are inaccurate and drain the battery so looks like I am left without it.

You are saying you'd like to know the battery charge level? It's in the settings. Graphs and a break down and stuff.
I hear you can get it on custom ROMs but don't really wanna go that far lol |

Yeah I know, I was talking about a percentage on the top bar that you can see quickly at a glance.

I like to see remaining battery life in hours (days if I'm lucky). It's a bit of a dark art, as it all depends on usage patterns, but it gets better over time. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw and this one, apparently, will do what you want Gormond. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...=search_result Quote:
- Top status bar icon to show % battery left (off by default, turn on in settings)

After looking all I can find are ones that are too big or too small. |

Thanks, I will give it a go.
