Usb adapter super-stable - Nexus 7 Accessories

The one-piece USB adapter is nice, but is somewhat prone to getting disconnected or" borked", so I modified it with some epoxy putty so it can be left connected indefinitely if needed. Pictures show the result.
Before pressing the epoxy covered adapter, I covered the end of the Nexus 7 with packing tape to prevent the epoxy bonding to the Nexus.
Last one shows how stable it is. Carried around all day once just to confirm the stability.

Thanks if I do another one, I'll put the epoxy putty the full length of the adapter for maximum support.

Tablet flight bag - Alpha One Niner

Found this bag on Kickstarter - The Alpha One Niner
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alphaoneniner/alphaoneniner-recon-one-tablet-flight-caddy-and-ba
Seems like it would be ideally suited for the Nexus 10 - with space for external charging and cable plumbing between compartments.
For the record - I am absolutely not affiliated with this in any commercial sense other than the fact that I put my name down for one as part of the Kickstarter process.

Elephone M2 Full Specs Revealed

The upcoming Elephone M2 along with some press photos. The device features a design that signifies a bit of a departure from the usual Elephone styling.
The Elephone M2 is now confirmed to have an octa-core MediaTek MT6753 processor with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of ROM. Depending on the time frame of the launch, will either make the M2 a full-blown flagship or a high-mid-range smartphone.
M2 will have a 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080p display from LG. The M2 will keep up with the trends and will pack a fingerprint sensor on the front (which claims to recognize fingerprints in 0.5 seconds) over the home button (which appears to be a physical button). Also on the front will be a 5 mega-pixel camera on top.

Wait, there's a notification led too? I received mine a few hours ago, and I had the same issue with the p8000. My unit did not come with notification led, and as far as I can see, its the same case on this one.
Also, how do you like the display? I feel like mine is quite yellow, even when I opt for cooler display levels.

hi,
yes my sample has notification led, on the left side of camera.
Is only red.
You can see it also during charge from 0% to 90% battery (if i remember well)
My display is not bad for white balance and i like a little the warm colors..

Oh now I see it! Thanks!
The LED is soo tiny and placed deep inside. I received plenty of notifications, but it never light up so far in the day. I did not charge the phone either (the battery lasts quite decently), so did not find it through there either.
I see you've made cwm for the device. If I may ask, how did you root the device? I rooted the p8000 by simply installing supersu, and since the experience on the m2 has been quite similar so far, I think it might work the same with it.

flashed cwm via flashtool using rom scatter from needrom repository (delete first row of scatter txt (birdtoolmin[4] ).
After flashing, flashed supersu.zip from chainfire site o here in xda.
witout cwm, if you only download suspersu from play store, after opening, you wll see that it is unable to update binaries. so different approach.. non the same as P8000

Hi, I been reading in several websites that the M2 support OTG but couldn't try on my one. Is any software side missing on the phone.

Elephone M2 do not support OTG, it may support only with auto powered devices or with y cable.
So definitely no support for main part of customers.
Many elephone lack of this OTG support, we will expected bettere for new models.
It does work with a powered hub but that's no use on the go is it!

I tried with my external powered HDD and didn't work. Maybe may OTG cable is damage.
Apart from lack of OTG is missing a quick charge, and a better battery to be perfect last night I was charging the phone on mains and the battery was still going down. Some app was sucking to much battery.
Screen is fantastic in my opinion.

Overall I am happy, given it was €150 it will do until Samsung bring out the S7 with micro SD.
Very good in my opinion, today i receive OTA update 31st december, the phone is very good at the moment, and i use it instead of my other phone xiaomi redmi note 2 [emoji4] [emoji6]
Good modding with twrp, root, xposed and gravity box..
No OTA for me, but I've flashed the update and it seems the same, no problems though :good:

Best tripod & fitting smartphone adapter

Hey everybody.
I'm looking for a small, portable tripod and currently trending to get this one:
Somikon Ultraflexibles, superbiegsames Dreibein-Kamerastativ, groß https://www.amazon.de/dp/B003I2AUKC/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_76Uvwb9PE0A91
Are there any others you would recommend?
Apart of that I'm searching for a smartphone adapter to attach my device to a tripod, Somikon also offers a probably good one, but that doesn't match the width of the Honor 7:
Somikon Stativ-Adapter für Smartphones & Kameras ohne Stativgewinde https://www.amazon.de/dp/B005PUU2WQ/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_F-Uvwb3D46KDR
Is there any adapter you can recommend?
Thanks!
I was planning to buy this

or http://www.amazon.in/UNIVERSAL-MOBI...&qid=1448632074&sr=8-5&keywords=tripod+phones
Both are about $ 3
and this for tripod

it's compatible with all smartphone + o - I tried it with 4.5 ad 5.5 screen

Overall love

Yes, yes, it's possible to love a phone. Heck, you sleep next to it, don't you? Rate this thread to indicate your love for the Samsung Galaxy A40, all things considered. A higher rating indicates that the Samsung Galaxy A40 is an incredible phone that you enjoy tremendously. You love it.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
5/10 meh
9/10. The Samsung A40 (2019) is the best phone I've had so far. I had the Samsung A5 (2017) before and was already annoyed at the growing size of phones. This A40 phone came along which was a similar size fixing all the issues with the 2017 A5.
Software setup: LinageOS 12.1/OC Tweaked Kernal/root
Pros:
- headphone jack
- OLED, ace screen
- Amazing screen/body ratio
- Really good XDA support for kernals, roms and root
- Great camera in ideal conditions
- Feels snappy enough
- MicroSD Two SIM card support
- Fast fingerprint reader
- Cheap with plenty of good condition seconds around
- very light, thin and small phone
- Easy to find 3rd party cheap repair shops with parts in stock/available
Cons:
- Root is harder to do than previous phones, but works
- Battery SOT of ~7 hours is a bit on the low-side. It's just OK. Using the app "LeanDroid (root)" really helps by shutting the data and switching from 4G to 2G when the screen is off
- The compass in Google Maps is wrong sometimes (I've always had this with phones)
- Camera is terrible in dark conditions

General Using the Mi 11 Ultra instead of a laptop

Hi All
This isn't rocket science, but thought I would pass on something I've been working on.
My Ultra has more ram, more storage and a better processor than my laptop along with 5x the battery life. So... I wanted to use it to work on the train and needed to print labels and stuff envelopes.
I bought a Zebra ZQ310 which is a very nice battery powered Bluetooth receipt/label printer. The printer is brill, but the Zebra Android software on Play is very old, but works.
I bought AndropenOffice Pro for £7.99 which I really like, it's got a mouse icon at the bottom and pressing it offers an area of the screen at the bottom as a touchpad, but for me,I bought a Jelly Comb Bluetooth trackball which is easier for me and won't take up too much area on the table. And, significantly it's much lighter than my old clunky laptop with a spare battery.
I bought the pro version of andropen Office as you can't print with the free version. My original idea was to use Google Print but that was jettisoned in December last year.
The only irritation with this is I bought it from the Amazon appstore and it requires you are running appstore and be signed into it to use andropenoffice. This is irritating as I'm guessing they are harvesting my personal data at the same time.
Any road up, Noroot firewall sorted that out. The appstore app is now blocked and andropenoffice seems to work just fine.
The combination of AndropenOffice and the Zebra printer work very well. I can print text, fonts and graphics and it's all fine.
For the keyboard, I've bought one of those PU leather wallets with an integral Bluetooth keyboard (see pic) so it ends up quite like a laptop.
This morning I processed half a dozen orders and printed address labels and it works well. It takes a little getting used to, with the small screen and occasional large windows that need dragging around but I'll stick with it and see how I get on.
Although our local trains often have Internet and mains power, you can't guarantee it so I've got an 18650 power bank which will charge the phone and the printer which, conveniently, is USB-C.
Although there are many more apps for Windows, I'm going to push ahead and see how far I can go. I use paint.net quite a bit on the laptop, so if anyone knows an equivalent for Android, please let me know.
Oops uploaded an Amazon joke too,so enjoy....
Cheers
Steve
You bought a 1500$ cellphone and can't afford a decent laptop to get your job done?
Get your priorities straight.
I disagree.This phone is powerful enough to comply with all his needs, what's the point to spend money on a laptop? The only reason he should buy one is the use of Windows
Hi @vagelis199 are you having a bad day or are you this rude all the time? I explained my reasons so try reading the post again lol. I Paid $1000.00 for my phone so I think you may have been stung lol.
I already have a laptop, but it's heavy to lug around and my phone is always with me.
I program PIC chips from time to time. I don't think there is anything for Android but that would be a real bonus for me.
Anyone know of a decent paint program for Android?
Cheers
Steve
Well, the keyboard/case arrrived and it works well (see pic).
The keyboardi s removable and very thin. It atttaches to the case with integral magnets. The only gotcha is it's a US keybaord so shift-3 is # and not £.
Need to find a good key re-mapper or save the £ symbol in a text file.....

What mouse is that?
Hi @lortwarCECH
Glad you like it. With the latest generation of phones, I'm finding myself moving more towards the phone than the laptop. It's a bit of a learning curve, but processed a dozen orders today in no time.
Hi @22naresn it's Jelly Comb track ball Model MT50:
MT50 Trackball Mouse
Trackball Mouse: an amazing alternative to traditional mice, allows you to navigate the cursor through your thumb Ergonomic Design: minimize arm & wrist movements, reduce muscle strain, and relieves RSI (repetitive strain injury)Bluetooth4.0 & 2.4G Wireless: connect up to 3 devices...
www.jellycomb.uk
It's a piece of cake to use. It just fell off the arm of a chair and bust a plate on the floor and the ball popped out. Hope I didn''t break it sod the plate!
Cheers
Steve
Update: No tracker balls were harmed in this post. The ball popped back in just fine so life is good. The plate bits are in the bin.
It has a USB-C charging port so that's convenient. I forgot to turn it off (that's the issue with BT devices) and left it on all night. In the morning it worked just fine. Dunno what the battery life is, but it seems pretty good.
Cheers
Steve
Just a little more background on this as it's been quite a long journey then I'll stop droning on
The first printer I bought for this project was a Milestone MHT-L5801 here:
Milestone MHT-L5801 Portable Bluetooth Thermal Printer 58mm Pos Barcode Printer | eBay
Find many great new & used options and get the best deals for Milestone MHT-L5801 Portable Bluetooth Thermal Printer 58mm Pos Barcode Printer at the best online prices at eBay! Free delivery for many products.
www.ebay.co.uk
And it really is a piece of junk. The plastic clip that holds the platen roller in place broke very quickly and sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. One issue was the blutooth range which was about 3 inches lol. I almost had it working,then it started printing very light, with parts of the text missing, Cleaning the head with an IPA wipe made no difference.
I contacted Milestone initially by email and got no reply to my first email or chasers then facebook and they said they would send me new firmware by email. Nothing arrived and when I chased them, they just said 'sorry'. Chased them again and they jsut said sorry again, but no firmware.
So, poor mechanical design, crap firmware with zero support.
Next up was a Zebra LP2824 printer here:
LP 2824 Desktop Printer Support & Downloads | Zebra
Find information on the Zebra LP 2824 Desktop Printer drivers, software, support, downloads, warranty information and more.
www.zebra.com
I bought it for 30 quid on eBay and Zebra printers are good quality. They are designed for use in warehouses etc. It's a desktop printer which makes it a bt heavy to lug around, but it *just works* and there are plenty of spares for it on Aliexpress so it can be maintained.
The power supply is 19v, like most laptops and I bought a USB/19v power bank from aliexpress which works using 18650 batteries here:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32619062806.html
The power bank powered the printer just fine and next up was to connect the RS232 port to a bluetooth dongle so the it would be transformed form a desktop printer which was battery powered with bluetooth.
I bought a couple of Bluetooth modules, but coudn't get them to work, then I saw an eBay ad with a guy selling the ZQ310 printers cheap (£100.00) which are designed to be portable (battery powered and Bluetooth) so bought one.
Now the desktop LP2824 is on my desk.
As mentioned earlier the Android software is very old and a bit scrappy, but it seems to work.
I didn't want to use some random labelling software, all I wanted was to be able to print from Open Office and I could then print anything. With Andopenoffice, this all works well and I can print text, fonts and graphics so job's a good 'un.
It's been a labour of love (and hate!) but now everything works fine.
I'm going to email Microchip and see if they are considering producing an Android compiler for their PIC chips. I guess they will think I'm nuts, but if I could program PICs on the train my life would be complete lol.
Ok I'll stop banging on now
Cheers
Steve
And finally (Ithink) here it is cast to a PC monitor using an Amazon Firestick
With the phone running andropenoffice
The firestick plugs into the HDMI port on the monitor and you go to:
Home/Settings/Display/Enable mirroring and it works like a dream
See attached pic.

Why do you care what others do?
It looks a bit bizarre tbh but if it works for you and you have good eyesight go for it
I would guess a 14" laptop would be miles more productive but the phone is surely powerful enough to be a workhorse if necessary
Hehe I just got on abit of a roll and wanted to see what could be done. My eyesight is crap but I have good glasses and you can always zoom a web page.
I must admit, I like the laptop better, but for long battery life on a train with no Internet, USB or mains power, the phone is a good substitute. It takes a bit of getting used to, but my speed is improving daily.
You're right - it's a flippin' powerful computer and so small
Cheers
Steve
I have tried using large phones with Bluetooth mouse and keyboard cases for a long time. Every time I realized Android cannot replace desktop OS. Multi-tasking in Android is painfully slow, whatever you use, split-screen or free size windows, and whichever OS version, I have tried from android 6 to 10. Nevertheless, if you are keen on trying here is some setup I have used
Tablet autofit cases: http://amazon.com/ZAGG-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Android-Tablets/dp/B00IBW5XWY, it has a spring holder, tablet just fits snugly in the top shell. it becomes a foldable laptop-like device.
This used to come in 7 inches, 8 inch, and 10-inch compatible sizes. I used this with Huawei mediapad X1/X2, Mediapad M3 8.4
I then got this mouse Logitech t630. It's a very small slim mouse with a touch surface.
When I moved to a little less wider phone, due to unnecessary skewing of display aspect ratios (16:10 -> 18:9 -> 19:9 -> 20:9), the Zagg autofit keyboards no longer fit the phones even of 7+ inch diagonal.
I have Huawei mate 20x most recently. For this phone, I use this keyboard and Logitech T630 mouse as mentioned above.
Another trick to try is to add custom keyboard shortcuts from accessibility -> switch access.
Hi @bark1234
Thanks for all the useful info. Although my speed with the setup described isn't yet as fast as a laptop, I'll be doing 5 hour train journies, so any time I can use fruitully is good. Some eBay pages don't seem to scroll or zoom so that's an irritation, particularly when giving feeback.
I guess time will tell. I will either eat if for breakfast or pull my hair out lol. Fun project though
Cheers
Steve
Just a quick update on this. I've been using Andropenoffice to print labels to a Zebra battery label printer for some time. My speed has improved and now prefer my mi 11 ultra to a laptop. I got caught out with the A12 update as I bought andropenoffice from the Amazon Appstore which doesn't support A12 yet. The options were Update or Quit, but update didn't work so it broke Andropenoffice. Good 'ole Amazon. On the ball (asleep at the keyboard) as usual.
Anyway, rather than grab a pen, I bought Andropenoffice again, but this time from the Play Store. Works great lol.
So in summary, nice small phone to process my orders, but problems with software compatibilty just like a PC.
Some days I really like being an early adopter and other days....
Cheers
Steve
I bought a mi pad 5 pro
It actually feels faster than the mi 11 ultra somehow
Maybe because it has more space for cooling down the chip etc
The battery life is great and it's super smooth
