amazon.com: $0.83 + free shipping

amazon.ca: $13.99 + $12.71 shipping

How does this happen?

u/[deleted] · 7 pointsr/Nexus7

Only 64GB? Haha, you pleb.

This + This + These + Stickmount

Seriously though, walking around with a cable dangling from the device is not ideal.

u/jtiseo · 7 pointsr/Nexus7

It would work like an external hard drive. For instance, you put a movie file on this "external drive" and when it is hooked up to the tablet, you can watch the movie on the tablet. If the "external drive" is disconnected, you will not be able to play that movie, but the tablet would function normally.

You would need an OTG USB cable and some type of USB storage device (this could be a usb drive, an sd card with sd card reader, etc...)

There's no point in buying the 16GB:

$199 8GB Nexus 7 + $1.39 USB OTG Cable + $39.99 64GB Flash Drive + Stickmount = $240.38 for a 72GB Nexus 7 vs $250 for a 16GB Nexus 7


See the various threads about how stickmount was updated yesterday for JB + Nexus 7 and works almost perfectly.

$1.39 USB OTG Cable: http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapter-Samsung-GT-i9100-GT-N7000/dp/B005FUNYSA

64GB Flash Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220674

Not to mention that this makes copying media from a computer much easier (remove flash drive, plug into computer)

Depends on the phone. I can use PS3 controller on Galaxy Note II unrooted via an OTG cable and usb cable connected to the controller. Xbox 360 controller (Wired) works as well also.

But if I want to use PS3 controller via Bluetooth, then I need to use the sixaxis app.

u/Caltwentynine · 3 pointsr/Nexus7

Use a normal usb keyboard + http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005FUNYSA/

I'm gonna try that out with my das, i'll let you know how it turns out soon :)

u/flat4gt30 · 3 pointsr/Android

Ill just leave this here for people who want to go with this idea. I ordered 2 just to have a spare. Not bad for 65 cents and free shipping.

I bought that case and there are a couple things you should know that I wish I did. Firstly, it is hard to type on because it is small and the buttons, especially the space bar, are slightly indented, making them hard to depress. Secondly, it is not bluetooth, so you also need to buy an OTG cable for it, which is cheap but might take some time to get to your place if you don't pay attention to where you are ordering it from. The entire first page when I bought mine were shipped from Hong Kong and it took about a month for me to get it. You cannot have the N7 plugged plugged in to the wall while you have the keyboard attached either, which makes longer typing sessions impossible, but you wouldn't want to type on the keyboard for longer sessions anyway. Lastly, the thing is not a case. The little hooks only hold the Nexus 7 in two places on the bottom and one on the top. The two hooks on the bottom, for me, were not parallel, which angered me that the N7 was on a tilt the whole time I tried using it. If you are transporting it, there is a great chance the N7 will simply fall out, and the case offeres no actual protection from falls, impact, or scratches. Additionally, it says it comes with a stylus, but that is just a plastic stick, so it will not work with the N7.

In summation, I would recommend saving the $4 +$5.95 on this and just purchase a reglar case with a kickstand and a fullsize bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo, as the efficiency of a mouse extremely helpful while typing large pieces also. If you are tyring to make a mini desktop setup, I'd also be sure to download a launcher that autorotates the homescreen, if you aren't rooting the device to change the LCD density controls ande give the N7 the 10-inch layout.

u/mitchsurp · 3 pointsr/AndroidQuestions
  1. Your phone has to support USB Host Mode (what kind of phone is it?)
  2. This piece of equipment
  3. This adapter
u/tinlo · 3 pointsr/Nexus7

I don't know about designated keyboards, a case with a slim keyboard built in would be nice, but I might just get this Logitech Bluetooth keyboard and a slip cover for the tablet.

You can always get one of these micro-USB adapters and plug any regular USB device into it.

u/frankle · 2 pointsr/Android

I have one coming on Tuesday, and in anticipation, I ordered these:

u/tooyoung_tooold · 2 pointsr/Nexus7

I did the same originally. I bought one for $1.20 something from hong kong. However i clicked the click where it says "XX number from $X.xx" link and it comes up with all the available vendors for the item. I found one vendor from the united states, so it stated 3-5 day shipping (continental mail). Instantly had my business, I cancelled the other order and placed one from there instead. It was well worth 30 extra cents for getting it that much sooner, plus my money is staying in the country.

EDIT: looked again. here is the link to the page. It turns out there are many vendors from the united states. It tells in the vendor description where they ship from. I'd say cancel your order and buy from the closest to you. It will probably come within a week. I can't find the particular vendor i bought from though.

u/rannelvis · 2 pointsr/Nexus7

I use this cable, works fine for me, price is right as well (although when I bought it it was cheaper at $0.64). Took about two weeks to get it delivered, but free shipping from Hong Kong, so no complaints

u/BillyumH81 · 2 pointsr/Nexus7

Take a Playstation 2 controller (can prob find one for around $5 if you dont have one in a closet somewhere) and get a ps2 to USB adapter + an OTG adapter. With 2 adapters on the end of the cable it's going to be clunkier than a wireless PS3, but no root's required and it's in your price range.

u/pyryoer · 2 pointsr/Multicopter

Happy to help out, diving into APM is a bit daunting but is very satisfying in the long run, especially the bang you get for your buck.

Cases/Barometer issues - I haven't flown using altitude hold on this board yet (got it for Christmas) but it uses the same barometer that the original Pixhawk does, so there's a good chance it is still susceptible to the same issue, which is air from props/wind disturbing its readings. If it is you can use a cotton ball or foam and some tape/a zip tie to take care of the problem.

As for cases you can either fashion one yourself or try this or this. Not sure if the holes for cables are on the same, but just about any 35x35mm flight controller case would fit.

-This covers gimbals and pixhawk thoroughly. I strongly urge you to wait on adding more complexity until you're happily flying however.

-915mhz is what you'll want in the US, you're all good there.

-Believe it or not there's not much more to do to get lily-like features up and running. You'll want an Android device (optimally with a 3G/LTE data connection so you don't have to download maps ahead of time) and a $2 micro USB host cable. Plug the ground side of the telemetry radio into the cable, plug that into your device, start the 3DR Tower app and you're set. It can even take "Dronies" where the camera stays locked on you while the copter flies up and away from you. Really cool shots.

You can try to use IOS but you'll hate it and you won't have nearly as much functionality. You can find cheap android tablets everywhere, I have a 2013 Nexus 7 that is perfect.

Once again don't try to add on too much at once. It makes for way more variables to troubleshoot and is a good way to get discouraged early on. There's tons of cool stuff to do with APM but if you don't take your time you better have deep pockets!

Mhl adapters allow you to convert the micro usb port to hdmi and watch videos / play games on a television or monitor. An otg cable allows you convert the micro usb to regular usb to use items such as a usb mouse or game pad.

From my understanding, Sixaxis needs you to be rooted, which I am not. I just connected it using an OTG cable. http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapter-Samsung-GT-i9100-GT-N7000/dp/B005FUNYSA

u/DiegoVereasy · 1 pointr/Nexus7

I bought a cheap one from Amazon that was finicky and only worked if I was holding it to the left. Decided to try my luck and bought another one (different vendor but it looks exactly the same) that works fine.

u/rishicourtflower · 1 pointr/Nexus7

I purchased this cable - only tried it with a Logitech USB receiver, but I can say that works perfectly. Fairly solid feel to it too.

Also, it's 70 cents including shipping.

u/yousefk · 1 pointr/Android

Nice to see that you're reviewing adapters, but you don't really need to. I just bought 4 of these after having already bought and received 2. They're really cheap (68 cents free shipping) and they work just as well as any other adapter.

u/pantsmessiah · 1 pointr/AndroidGaming

I haven't tried it myself yet but you can use a 360 controller if you don't mind a cord.

Get a USB adapter like this and use the 360 controller.

From what I've read the controller just works in ICS. I ordered a different one for 0.58 shipped a few days ago and a coworker got a 360 pad for like 25.

I don't know how much ps3 controllers are but I have never used a better game pad than the 360.

u/Dourel · 1 pointr/Nexus

So this thing won't do the trick (connecting USB pendrive or game controller to phone) - http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapter-Samsung-GT-i9100-GT-N7000/dp/B005FUNYSA ?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3qFZZzEvPY here is the video with that cable

Well, bummer. I just read some posts and everyone says that Nexus can't give enought power. I found something like this - http://i948.photobucket.com/albums/ad322/hanyun2011/cableadapter/T2EsOZXopaXXXXXXXXb.jpg?t=1357396326 - but it is completly unpractical... I won't find any power source in a bus or train ;/

I have 2 batteries left from my SGS, but I have no idea how long would one battery stay alive. Also I have no idea how to build such thing.

u/tee_jay · 1 pointr/Nexus7

This, this, or this should work. I have the 3rd one and it works fine.

u/CA719 · 1 pointr/Android

Bought this one. 65 cents plus free shipping!

Bought 2 of them

u/jerseymonkey · 1 pointr/Nexus7

Or you could just buy one for $0.64 off Amazon shipped: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FUNYSA/

I think I understand what you are trying to do. You don't need our Mac to do this.

You need the usb cable to connect your controller to a usb, and a USB OTG.

Then all you have to do is connect them together, and then go to the SixAxis application and choose the "Pair Controller".Don't forget that you need to be rooted. That should allow you to pair the controller with your phone.

I don't think there is a way to pair it with mac as the middleman. Either do what I say above, or borrow someone's windows computer.

Having USB OTG helps though, for other things as well, so having it is no harm.

P.S. If you are just playing dead trigger, you can just connect the controller via USB + USB OTG to the phone.
