fixed Nexus 7 Wifi and Wifi plus 3G 1st Generation fixes

Over the past few months I've been repairing many Google Asus 1st Generation Nexus 7 Tablets. These have been a mixture of WiFi only and WiFi plus 3G models.  With constant and occasional hard daily use the Nexus 7 can suffer from a range of problems.

These include:

• Nexus 7 dead battery 
• Nexus 7 battery not holding charge
• Nexus 7 broken charger port (from tripping over the cable)
• Nexus 7 damaged internal speakers (water damage)
• Nexus 7 internal speaker failure (kiddies sticking things in the speaker port)
• Nexus 7 headphone socket not working
• Nexus 7 headphone sound intermittent

From the repair work I have been doing I have gathered a significant collection of spare parts which have been fully tested and found to be working which I am making available at low prices on eBay.

Of course to do any sort of repair of replacement you need to:

• take FULL responsibility for what you do
• ENSURE YOU BACK UP ALL YOUR DATA, APPS AND SETTINGS
• disconnect any external power supply 
• Open the case without destroying your nexus 7
• Disconnect the internal battery safely and without destroying your nexus 7
• Identify what part you have in your Nexus 7
• Find the appropriate replacement part
• Safely remove the defective part, and replace it with the replacement part
• Safely reconnect the battery
• Restart your Nexus 7 and test it.
• BE REALLY PLEASED WITH YOURSELF IF IT WENT WELL :-)

In this blog I will publish a series of 'HOW I DO IT' fixes as tutorial videos for educational purposes, what you decide to do with them is completely your responsibility, I accept no liability..

I will also put links to items I have currently on eBay for UK buyers, I will shipped further but as we all know postage is getting expensive so buyers will need to confirm the shipping fee with me.

The first video is ready it is:

Asus nexus 7 1st Generation Tablet PC - How I Safely open it.

I have been doing significant amounts of work repairing and reconditioning the Google Asus Nexus 7 PC Tablet, and despite being a Mac Person iPhone and iPad user I quite like it.

As I have been opening and closing the Nexus 7 and others have been purchasing reconditioned parts off me from my circus_frontman eBay account.

 I thought I'd do a quick series of videos.

 The first is opening the nexus 7 and disconnecting the battery.

I hope you find it useful.
