Haha.... but I have no big ego... I'm just participating in the xda-community....by posting this thread.... these apps I thought were very useful... since I find my self using them all the time!... and though I'd share my top 5 with my fellow N7 owners.... you don't have to use any of them if you don't too... as everyone has their own opinion and is different...

Nice video. Thanks for the suggestions. The only one that makes me scratch my head is the rotation one. Why not just recommend an alternative launcher such as Nova that gives you rotation capability plus a whole lot more?

Sorry let me be more specific. While googling good apps to download for the Nexus 7 most lists are these and popular android apps that everyone already knows about.. I was hoping to see an extended list with some more apps that may not be on everyone's radar.

Why does this app show up as incompatible? It's a tablet app it should work!
Anywhere I can just gets the apk to try it out?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Just because it's a tablet app does not automatically equate to compatibility. It could be that the app is dependent on a 10.1" screen or rear camera.
That being said, it seems that the tablet app is far less polished than the mobile app anyway. I wouldn't even bother with it.

Problem with that is apps would get unjust negative reviews from idiots that install apps that aren't compatible with their hardware. Not directing that at you personally... just something that I've seen happen a few too many times.

I agree with the OP in that I would like to see filters replaced by advisements but your point is well taken.

The app developer did not write in the resources for all sizes of devices. Its in a manifest type file that play store reads. The play store does not monitor or control apps or app quality and rather its up to the developer to specify what device its built for.
So short of starting arguments. Email developer of the app. That is the only one who can help.
Good luck.

I did actually, I got a response "we have no information on that item at this time, sorry for the inconvenience".
I know why they filters are in place but it can be annoying. To me a nexus device is the android standard, any application that is relevant should show up in the market, but it doesn't. It's also frustrating in the case of upgrading, like when I upgraded from my aging Samsung Captivate to my HTC Vivid that has twice the power, and yet a fraction of compatibility. I seriously have games that I played on my captivate that won't show for the Vivid. So what your saying is a single core Galaxy S phone with 512mb of ram and an aging power vr sgx540 can play Nova 2 just fine but a Qualcomm Snapdragon s3 with a dual core processor and a gig of ram and an adreno 230 gpu can't? Doesn't make much sense to me.
I am using that as an example but it is a true one. I no longer game on my phone as I use the nexus now but it does seem ridiculous that upgrading to a better phone or tablet can break your compatibility.

And now I got it and yeah it's a bit meh I agree, perhaps labeled as incompatible since it's landscape only, and the nexus 7 is clearly catered to portrait.

Unfortunately, from other reports from users, it works but all the textures are completely blacked out, like they're missing. I made a complaint thread on Fire Monkey's website to ask them to fix it.

Because it plays on a device thats made by samsung and it doesnt on a device google is selling.

I TiBu'ed from my Evo 4g LTE which is the adreno version and it works fine on my N7. I suspect texture issues are because ppl might be pulling it from non-adreno devices and trying to use it with the N7

I pulled mine off of my Galaxy S4, which is Adreno. I get the texture issue. I tried an apk I downloaded and that worked just fine. Strange.

Tegra graphics for dead trigger 2
I'm sure most of you know of the ultra high graphics mod for the first game but I just found a Ultra High Graphics Mod for Dead Trigger 2, more info & downloads here, I haven't tested it yet
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46765216

Does the game always require an internet connection to be played?

Its out now... Playing

I have only "High" and "low" graphics settings :/
How i can unlock ultra high?

It lags on ultrahigh graphics. But it is comprehensible I think.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

So, after playing the game for a couple days I have to admit I'm not as impressed as I thought I'd be. It's allot like the first one. Same basic two or three missions collect, defend, attack. The graphics are better but it's the same basic premise. Similar guns, similar enemies with a couple variations. The overall game play is still much the same, very boxy, very enclosed. Nothing open world like Left For Dead. I like some of the options but when it comes to all the weapon making and upgrading it just kinda complicates things to get to the same end result from the first game. I dunno. The verdict is still out. :screwy:
