[Q] nexus 7 as keyboard for antroid tv ? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Basically as it says....
I've recently ordered one of those android dongles that you plug into your TV, is there anyway I can use the Nexus 7 as a keyboard and mouse to operate the dongle, if so are there any apps ?
Many thanks for any help.

Maybe you could remote access it (vnc?)

How do I connect my Nexus 7 with my TV?

Basically, once I get my Nexus 7 (Tuesday) I'd love to play games like Dead Trigger and Shadowgun on a big display with my PS3 controller. I know that I can get the sixaxis controller app working but I have no idea how I'll display the image off my laptop onto the TV (which is not a smart TV) and (if possible with some sort of splitter charge at the same time). I'd really appreciate it if somebody could help me.
Bump! Anybody know? I wanna do this too.

Mhl but the n7 doesn't support it

Don't think Nexus 7 supports output to TV

MHL = nope
But you can check this out:

what about wifi direct?
Pretty sure its just for file transfer, but I don't have a TV that supports it to test. There's no MHL so you can scratch that. This thing by HTC has been the only thing I've seen that lets you do some stuff, but seems pretty limited
You can use the stupid expensive pricey nexus q

[Q] Can I use the Nexus 7 as Wlan USB stick?

Hi,
I'd like to use my Nexus 7 as a Wlan Stick for my Desktop PC. Is this possible?
I am running the CM night lies.
Thanks a lot.
Probably but can't you just plug in a wifi adapter to your Desktop instead?

ordering bluetooth keyboard, on android stick will already be switched on? jb iphone

im ordering a bluetooth keyboard, but wondering would i need to attach a normal keyboard first to switch on the bluetooth setting on the android stick? or will it already be activated
please let me know.. because i am wondering how else would i control the android stick? i dont have a usb keyboard/wirleess keyboard
is there anything i can do via jailbroken iphone?
Bluetooth is typically off by default.
You will probably need a mouse and keyboard to navigate into settings and type any pairing codes. So yea you'll need something.
I recommend an RC11 Air Mouse/Keyboard ~$20

My mk809 has a really weak bluetooth receiver. It left me disappointed and Ill probably never use it as a result.

[Q] How many Blue tooth devices...

How many Blue tooth devices can i have active at the same time? I just discovered I can have my keyboard and a wireless headset synced at the same time. Can I add a third device? I wanted to get rid of my OTG wired mouse and purchase a wireless mouse and leave the port open for charging. With this setup I won't have to ever carry my laptop around as this provide everything I need on a portable computer.

I've used a BT mouse and keyboard on my N7 simultaneously. Though I don't have a BT headset or stereo headphones yet, I'm willing to bet that it could be added to the mix, as it uses a different BT profile.

Ok so I bought an HP bluetooth mouse and now I have the keyboard, headset and mouse all synced at the same time! I'm leaving my laptop at home from now on!

Bad news, for some reason my keyboard is repeating strokes. I suspect the addition of the wireless mouse had something to do with it. Anyone else experienced this before?

A BT keyboard may repeat strokes anyway. Get 'external keyboard helper' from the play store, and you can configure things like repeat delay to help sort it out.

Thank you so much Sir! I will try this out before I return my new mouse. :highfive:

Nope, that didn't work for me. Thanks for the suggestion! I am using a regular OTG wireless keyboard and I do not have the repeating key problem. I might buy a OTG+ charging cable in order to use my tablet as a laptop and charge it at the same time.

[Q] connect nexus 4 to TV using USB

Hi, i'm using CM 10.1 and i'm trying to connect my phone to my TV using USB in order to see my media on it.
Is it possible nexus 4 with CM? or is it my TV?
i checked the android debugging in the developer options. Did i miss something else?
Slimport.

And besides slimport?
There is Miracast Wireless Display but you have to buy the box itself for the TV which is around £50 and £100 so I would stick with Slimport which costs around £28 in total.

I think your missing his point here.
He means his tv has a USB port which you can say plug a hard drive in & watch content stored on it.
My old tv had this functionality however it's not possible to do this with the nexus 4 as the storage is not mounted as a USB storage device.
Meaning the only way you can do what you ask is via a slimport adapter to use your phone as an HDMI input on your tv

may be wrong but I remember reading somewhere that some newer Samsung TVs support MTP.
