Thanks I'll check it out
No Audio only video plays.
I followed the instructions, only video plays no audio. Any ideas?
Try a different apk, that might fix it.

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.

Xbox One Smartglass app

Microsoft released their new Smartglass app for the Xbox One today and it lets you install it on the Nexus 7 but it gives the phone UI instead of the Tablet UI you see if its installed on a Nexus 10. Anyone know of a way to force an app into Tablet mode?
