G+_Wade Shields Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Couple questions about Nexus 7...... 1) I'm using Nova Launcher, and can't figure out how to enable screen rotation for the Home Screen. It works everywhere but home screen, and rotates fine on stock launcher. 2) When using Google Now or any voice action, it doesn't pick up my (or anyone's) voice. It just stops while I'm talking and says to tap mic when ready. .... Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joseph Cappellino Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 1) Nova Settings - Look & Feel - Screen Orientation - set to desired preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Wade Shields Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Thanks. I looked for 20min and missed that one. Getting frustrated with #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gavin James Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Re #2 have you tried connecting a headset with mic and using it that way? It may help to isolate root cause (ie software vs hardware) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wade Shields Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Gavin James Good idea. I got a bluetooth I'll try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_R.C. Curtright Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I had problem 2 and realized my headset was plugged in still. :-) But you are probably smarter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wade Shields Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Gavin James I tried my headphones with in-line mic and it worked 1 time then stopped & hasn't worked since. Gotta be a hardware issue. Guess i gotta take it back :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gavin James Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Wade Shields That's weird. Is it isolated to Google Now? Can you voice type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wade Shields Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Not isolated. Anywhere it is required to hear my voice, it fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Andrew Vaughan Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Does the device generally support a mic in the phono port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wade Shields Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Not sure, but by connecting external headphones with in line mic i was hoping to determine if the issue was the mic itself, settings, or software issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gavin James Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Sorry Wade Shields I am at a loss here. Call customer support and see what they recommend. Hopefully you get a new device. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Wade Shields Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Yeah. I bought it at Best Buy so I don't expect issues. I'm gonna return it in the morning. Thanks for the ideas though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
