Nexus 7 treats himself as a Motorolla Xoom - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Recently i have installed Allwinner mod on my nexus 7 to install Whatsapp. But everything looked very small, So i made a Factory Data Reset.
But the device still thinks is an Allwinner device. Google play store shows "Motorrola Xoom" When im trying to download an app from the web interface.
How do i fix it?

Change your build.prop to the proper device, whether it be grouper or tilapia.

Losing ownership of the Nexus Q

Anyone else having this problem? I setup the Q with my nexus 7, no problem at all, can stream everything perfectly and can access all the settings. Once i install the Q app on my GNEX running jellybean i lose owner access on both devices. Only way to get it back is to do a factory reset on the Q and only set it up on the nexus 7 ONLY.

I had exactly this issue the first time I tried to pair both the 7 and the Galaxy Nexus to the Q. After a reset of the Q, I was able to pair both without losing ownership from the 7.
Thanks for your reply, I've tried countless times but still have the issue. Right now I have the nexus 7 paired up with it. I removed the gnex until Google support gets back to me.

I had the exact same problem. I had to reset the device so I set it up first on my GNex and then on the Nexus 7. Well now it's doing the same thing again telling me I'm not the owner on both devices but it still plays fine.
I just reset my Q , uninstalled from both my 7 and gnex. Installed the latest version which was updated today and everything works great now. I am owner on both devices

Using MultiROM with Nexus 4?

I've converted my Optimus G into a Nexus 4 and am wondering if anyone has tried to use MultiROM with their handset. Apparently it functions for the Nexus 7 with what limited knowledge I have in reading up on it. The reason I ask is because I'd ultimately like to run stock Android on some form along with Ubuntu Phone which has released is developer version to our phone recently, and this can be accomplished on the Nexus 7.
Should I even bother asking at this point I don't know, but figured its worth a shot as I love flashing roms whenever is convenient. I don't believe that Boot Manager in the play store is yet supported for the Nexus 4 at this point and if it were I doubt it would allow for ubuntu phone.

I don't have an answer for you, but how is your phone running since the conversion?

Because Optimus G is G+4, but Nexus 4 is just 4
It has ran just fine until the last month or so. Using an early cm 10.1 room with capacitive buttons and 8gb sd recognition. Lately my phone will randomly power off for no apparent reason so I will look to refresh my handset soon.
The Optimus G is considered a more reliable phone over the Nexus 4 from what I've read. It also allows for storage beyond 16gb since the att version includes that on board and allows external storage also. There is a HD ask to allow for 16gb internal recognized which I have not yet performed. No issues with my phone but rare overheating which I remedy by turning off my phone for it to cool down for a few mins at best.

Bluetooth Mouse Issues

I ordered a Speedlink bluetooth mouse of ebay and it works perfectly with my Nexus 7 but nothing with my Nexus 4.
It connects and pairs but doesn't show a cursor or do anything with the phone.
Nexus 4 running stock and rooted 4.2.2
Nexus 7 running stock and rooted 4.2.1
Any advice?
Thanks.
Maybe downgrade your nexus 4 to 4.2.1?

Can anyone confirm that they have a mouse which works with the Nexus 4?
I wonder if the level of Android actually is the issue. l also have a speedlink mouse. On 4.2.1 it worked fine with my Nexus 7, as with yours. Now on 4.2.2 it won't connect, and your Nexus 4 is on 4.2.2. It might be that the Android level, rather than the device, may be the issue.

It does seem odd and an unlikely coincidence. I wonder why this functionality was stripped out.
Has anyone got any sort of bluetooth mouse to work with 4.2.2?

2013 nexus 7 problem, anyone?

I want to hear all your problem and is there any issue about the latest gen and the latest model number, do you guys still having problems such as multitouch, lagging. Or any hardware problem and also the gps thing?
And do you guys know what is the latest model type that any kind of retail store has for nexus 7 and also from google site?
Seems the most problem for nexus 7 is still coming from JSS15Q, am i right?

You do know that this forum is for the 2012 Nexus 7?
Oh wow sorry i didn't know that
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Its a wrong forum, but I've never had this multi touch problem on my 2013 n7, i guess it's a hardware problem, and yes jss15q is the latest!, you should do a replacement

It's not there on the 2012 N7 either. Oddly, it's there on the Nexus 10, though.

Also I just noticed the version of Google keyboard on Nexus 5 and 2013 Nexus 7 is different.... Also there is no option for Nexus 7 "Vibrate on Keypress" meanwhile Nexus 5 does have. I can't even uninstall it.

That's because neither Nexus 7 model has a vibrator.

aw....i just hate the sound it makes....lol. Any suggestions? Hoping we can get a work around for Tap & Pay feature... I was really looking forward to it..since the 4.4 update. I don't understand why Google can't make it open to any handset that has NFC capabilities? right? sigh... hehehe
Turn on NFC first, then the menu will show up.

Even after enabling NFC and wallet installed, Wallet doesn't show up in the tap & pay list. I even uninstalled and reinstalled Wallet.

It's working completely fine for me... All I can think of to recommend is a factory reset..

2013, running sideloaded OTA'd stock 4.4.
I'm stock rooted. I guess I'll try a factory reset, go from there.

Is the issue that the Tap & Pay menu doesn't appear in Settings or does the functionality not work? I have never used it but I just turned on NFC to check and once I do, tap&pay appears in settings. Wi-fi N7 here.

Tap & pay will only show up after NFC is enabled (Kit Kat only, NOT Jelly Bean for you n00bs out there).
However, even after I reverted to stock unrooted jelly bean, oem locked, sideloaded the update, & reinstalled Wallet....Wallet STILL does not show up in the Tap & Pay app list. So I don't know what else to do.

If i remember well, nexus 7 doesn't have the hardware to allow tap and pay... It's like we needed a secured NFC chip

The secure NFC chip isn't needed for tap and pay starting with KitKat. That's why they added it at the OS level.
Tap and Pay is indeed present on the 2013 Nexus 7. I just enabled NFC to confirm that the menu shows up in Settings and it does.
Tap and Pay is present that's correct but Wallet isn't there yet. More talk about it here
