Request to devs - Nexus 7 General

I am requesting a feature activation. I would love to see the USB otg available not for extra space but so I can remote control my Dslr from the tablet with an app. I was able to do this with the iconia tab but the nexus 7 is a way more convenient size.
Thanks ;-)

Awesome idea

This is just an idea but with the brains on here I know something could be done. The hd dock let's you have legitimate usb ports. Would it be possible to use a PS3 controller directly through it? Could make emulators and such a great and awesome thing. Any ideas?
You can buy the six axis controller app in the market. It will use Bluetooth to connect them and you won't need a dock or a cable.

lol, i know this now. had read a while back about it not working well with the bionic. didn't check for an update before posting. looked at it about an hour afterward....and i now have the sixaxis app running and am reliving the megaman days...
Sixaxis works on the Bionic now. You need to bypass IME so it makes the controller act like a hardware keyboard. Some people notice lag when using it through the HDMI though. Personally I haven't had that issue.
Do i need any hack o mod to use this app?
Yes i check the market and say root required lol

If I was to root my nexus 7, will the controller work?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
There is a known issue with the gamepad layout file that causes this. You have to be rooted to replace the file with the fixed version. It is not game specific as it effects most games and controllers.

So after I root, how do I fix the game controller file, and where do I get the file.

I also would like to know the fix so I can use tablet remote app to use my phone as a controller for emulators. The app works with everything but emulators. I have tried keymapping without luck
Do a search for wireless xbox controller fix. Should be the same.

What cool things to do with Nexus 7?

As the title says, what do you do or can be done?
I haven't really found any cool things to do with the tablet. Other than watching movies on a bigger screen than a phone, I haven't really used it for anything different that I can't do on my phone (albiet a bit slower)
Use ur ps3 control to play games

A few guys here have replaced the indash stereo in their car with the N7. Looks pretty good too.
get all the square enix games. final fantasy 3 is so fun to play on nexus 7 rather than my 4" incredible 4g. Also chaos rings is fun as well as wild blood
Control your computer remotely using Splashtop 2 or TeamViewer, both for free.

+1 for Splashtop 2
If you have a Linux machine, install ConnectBot on your Nexus 7 and SSH into your home computer.
Another thing that seems to impress folks is when I use BubbleUPnP to connect to my home PC over the Internet to watch movies.
Speaking of movies and SSH, login to a Linux machine with mplayer installed and watch a movie in ASCII (works best with cartoons):
Code:
$ mplayer -vo caca Aladdin.mp4

Play Ms. Pacman
Use it as an external monitor/remote control with Chainfire's DSLR Controller app if you have a compatible Canon camera.

It's replaced my Sat-nav, and no it's not mounted on the windshield, its just below the air vents. Also used an NFC tag on the holder so when I put the tablet on the holder, it fires up the navigation app automatically
Also using it to control my TV as other users have suggested
I almost feel as though this post should be a sticky lol. Great ideas guys! Keep em coming!

Well it already has adb. Just open a terminal and type adb! You also can get fastboot on it (search xda for fastbootarm). And you would need a usb otg cable. Not sure if it works too well (my cable hasn't arrived yet), but you could also install Ubuntu and do it from there.

Logitech K400 keyboard (using OTG cabe)

I'm using this keyboard on my nexus 7! And it works but after some time of inactivity it stops working. And I have to disconnect and connect the cable again.
I tested in my Samsung Galaxy S2 and I had no problems.
I'm using this app in both devices and the cable is also the same.

Interesting. I use the same keyboard for my Bionic and RAZR Maxx while both are docked. Great keyboard for HTPC use. May have to try now on my N7.

Hi!
I've bought logitech keyboard k400 and for me sorprise it doesn't work with me NEXUS 10.
I've looked for in internet the solution or the motive but I didn't read anything.
Any help?
Is the app even needed? Perhaps the app is the source of the trouble?
I used a Logitech USB keyboard ("Internet 350 Keyboard" M/N Y-US76A) w/ 4.2.1 on the N7 via OTG cable - just plugged it in and it worked. No apps needed / no diddling of settings.
Didn't use it a lot though, so maybe I didn't use it enough to experience the same symptom.
The app is useful.
I think that the last night build of CM solved the awake problem of K400.
Didn't test that yet!

I'm using the last night build of CM 10.1 and still happens.
I'll test other keyboard.

[Q] LG TV Screen Share

Is it possible to share my Note screen on my LG SmartTV?
I want to do it directly Note -> TV without a need of a computer. I know that is possible with a LG Smartphone.. with the SmartShare app, but when I install that app on my Note I got the erroe "Manufacter does not match" ...
Any solutions?
Thanks!
Nothing?
You could use MHL to HDMI and directly link to your TV, which is as simple as plugging in an MHL cable (which you have to purchase separately) between the two. I don't know of a wireless way though, sorry.

LG allows media sharing through this app, but its not a direct link and you can't share anything but media. You could also find a DLNA server on the market, but there's doesn't seem to be an easy screen share method.

I own a LG 3D TV and sometimes use Allshare to view videos i recorded, even music and pictures works..
Sharing images/videos is not the problem, the big deal is screen share wireless
If you could juri rig MHL to be wireless, that's the only way, unless you code something to do it for you.
