just a quick question about the external storage function a nexus 7 has. I know you have to be rooted, but does it have to be 2.0?? i was planning on buying a small 2.0 16gb drive. but then i saw this on Amazon. Seems like a good price to me.
thanks for answering!
That drive should be fine. It will just use the speed allowed by the slowest connection, which would be the usb 2.0 protocol.
thanks for clearing that up

Hello to the Community. I first want to say thank to all you great people. This is the BEST forum going and you've been a huge help to many times.
OK so I'm a new owner of a 16g Nexus 7.
The main goal of this thread is I'm trying to find a gaming controller, the cable to allow the controller to function, and then a cable that will allow me to play games or watch movies on my big screen. I have some knowledge of what I'm looking for but not enough. I didn't want to make the mistake of buying the wrong thing, especially on line.
The other day I go and buy a micro HDmi to HDMI and realized after that is no go on either the N7 or gnex. So I'm here: I'm confident I can get good Info on all three of these items that work well and for cheap.
I have searched around here, other forums and on line but I haven't find anything definitive enough on what I would all need and works most current.
Need to buy on line asap:
The gaming controller: I don't care if its wired or wireless. Whatever you experts recommend is fine with me.
HDMI capable cable to TV.
If I have made any mistakes in posting or didn't include enough info please let me know.
Thank you all ahead of time for taking the time.

I am no expert either....just picked up my N7 today as well.
but i am pretty sure you need an MHL adapter...which is micro SD to Full HDMI female plug. then an HDMI cable from MHL to the TV.
as for the controller, i would probably stick with Bluetooth. you can use a PS3 BT controller (make sure it is official sony sixaxxis as some nockoffs use a wireless transmitter which isn't as easy and may not even work on the N&)
the PS3 controller i believe requires Root and an app which costs Money.
or there are other ones that gamestop sells called the Nyco playpad or something like that designed specifically for android gaming.
the Nyco requires a free app in the play store.
hook everything up, and you should be gaming in no time.
i personally can't wait to play some Old school NES games on my bigscreen.
There"s no mhl on the nexus 7.

Hey there and welcome,
I have done a couple of the things you're aiming to achieve.
For the controller, I have purchased a cheap micro USB OTG host (Right angled) from eBay for about £1.
This enabled me to use wired controllers, mount USB sticks for films etc.
I purchased an unofficial Xbox controller from Argos for around £17, it didn't work 100% from plug in, I had to modify the key layout file which took 2 mins, now it's perfect.
With regards to the HDMI, I don't think the N7 supports MHL, android 4.2 however will support wireless screen sharing via a dongle you plug into the TV. I forgot what its called.
Anyway, hope that helps, enjoy the nexus 7!
Edit: software is called miracast, looks promising. And if this method is preferred I guess a wireless controller is preferred too!

Yo thank you for the reply buddy
Sucks no Hdmi but o well gaming with a controller(wired or not) will work for now. What i wanted was to specifically find some ppl who had experience with a setup that confirmed working as recent as poss.
Price wise 1 for the cable and 17 for the controller works for me.
Do you mind linking me to the 2 products?

Hey dude thanks for the reply
OK so see this is why i can get confused. The one reply below yours says n7 has no mhl support which I did hear multiple times other places online. But your saying it IS POSSIBLE with the MHL adapter( and I've seen it done on YouTube somehow). If it is me.that is misunderstanding what is being said, please 4give me,
--all I want is to game with a controller on my N7, if its possible to do it on a big screen...GREAT, if not no biggie at all. I just want to understand it however it is.
Make the purchases asap so they can get here asap. Lol
This can be really frustrating lol

I basically just ordered a cheap, non-branded game controller (about $5), got a USB OTG cable with the same specifics (cheap, non-branded), and found a custom keylayout that works for cheap, non-branded controllers. Combined all those together, and I now have a nice controller that can play games like DEAD TRIGGER

Yeah no problem, as long as the gameplay has the same layout as an Xbox controller, I know how to make it work. Other types will be a bit different buy I'm sure other people have got them working by editting the keylayout file, just send me a pm and I'll help with what I can.
With regards to the Argos site, you may want to find it locally for cheaper.

Hey guys.
OK I got this http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=280894965492 for $7
I haven't had much time but with the testing I've done with the time I did have here is what I know:
dead trigger- I see that this game has a built in option to use a game pad and map the buttons. It seemed pretty simple to do. The one small issue I couldn't figure out was how to map the control to lower w/e weapon I'm using. With the normal touchscreen your able to move that up/down. With the controller it stays about right at a level where w/e weapon I'm using shoots the zombies at head level( which is great when shooting) but sometimes its nice to be able to move that, especially when you are moving. If anyone knows how to do this or anything else Im missing i would appreciate the help very much.
NFS Most Wanted- could not figure out how to get the controller to work. Any info would be great.
Asphalt Heat-I haven't tried yet but I'm pretty sure there is a built in option to use a gamepad as well. Correct?
MC3-Iv seen and heard this game is capable of using USB controller but I don't know how to get it work. Any info on this?
NBA Jam-tried straight plug and play with this game and had no success?
Beach Buggy Blitz- built in option for gamepads worked. Pretty simple.
Any other games that anyone has experience with plug and play or simple modifications would be a great help to me.
Thank you.

Can someone please please help me. I got a USB controller that works. The game in question is modern Combat 3 on the nexus 7. This is driving me fricken crazy. I been at this for hours and I'm about ready to go nuts. I'm at the point where I'm trying to map the buttons on the touch screen. I figured out how to maps most of the buttons EXCEPT FOR HOW TO MOVE/RUN AND AND AIM. I'm trying to map the left analog stick to move/run and the right analog stick to aim/movie the gun around. I'm kind of able to but the direction I'm moving are all fed up and I can't get it right.
I'll be able map the right analog stick to move the gun around but up moves left down moves right left moves up and right moves down. You understand what I mean? It WILL NOT let me to get right how its suppose to be.
If someone can somehow someway help it would be a huge help. I've literally been at it for 2 day on and off and I can't figure it out. Its so darn frustrating.

I also am looking to get a wireless hard drive as well, but I'd love to hear opinions from a real user before purchasing.
Would you be so kind to answer my questions...?
Is it the 16GB or 32GB?
What are the kinks of the Wi-Drive?
Is there a limitation of file types, of which that be played/opened?
Are you satisfied with the drive? What are your main uses for the drive?
i just got my Patriot Gauntlet Node with OCz ssd. I liked the idea of the Gauntlet Node over the Wi-Drive or GoFlex since it was just an enclosure so you can put any size 2.5" SSD or HDD, in theory. The Gauntlet doesnt work with the ocz ssd at all, wifi or usb, it would broadcast the network and bridge the internet but no drives were mounted. I also tried a Seagate HDD that only worked with usb and same result with wifi. I updated the Gauntlet's firmware but still didnt work. Not much support from Patriot either, i found out the Gauntlet is made by another company and Patriot just re-branded it so they just tell you to recharge the batteries or update firmware. Looks like it's going back and might go for the 128gb Wi-Drive.

Is the internet bridge any good on the Wi-drive? The gauntlet capped the internet bridge network speed to about 2Mbps.
How is the battery life?

You could simplify that by getting a complete media center, like WD TV Live Hub(which is top notch) or something similar.
It's more expensive than a simple wifi hard drive, but well worth the price imo..

+1 on this. I love my WD TV Live Hub. I wish it had more HD space built-in as 1 TB get filled up pretty quickly with 1080p movies, but plugging external USB drives into it works very well and I can access all the movies with my N4 or Xoom.
I guess it comes down to what you are looking for. I would think about getting the Wi-Drive since it is portable giving you the ability to watch movies on your N4 anywhere and for extra portable file storage. The WD TV Live Hub gives you a lot more space for your buck, ~$200 for 1 TB on the Hub versus ~$100 for 64GB on the Wi-Drive.
This thread has me thinking about creating a folder on my Live Hub just for expanded storage for my N4. I already use my N4 to control the Live Hub, so why not use the Hub to make backups of my nandroids and rom files.

For the OP if you just want to stream stuff at your house you dont need any extra hard drive, there are lots of options. You can just use your local network and use ES file explorer to stream and play movies/music or set up a upnp server and use a upnp app on your nexus to play it.

That Corsair Voyage Air looks very appealing. Its basically the seagate go flex satellite with extra features.
Depending on the price, i might as well buy it. I think i can wait a couple of months. Although, the 16GB kingston wi-drive looks really tempting in its current price.
Regardless, I just wish some one would make a wireless usb hub/microsd card reader....It would be the be all end all solution for future debates on a gadget's storage size, usb on the go support, and inclusion of external storage.

If your router has a USB port, you can attach an external hard drive and share the content.
What do you all think of the below items I'm getting.
iMito MX1 MiniPC
RC12 Air Mouse/Keyboard
Logitech C310 webcam
Belkin USB 2.0 4-Port Ultra-Mini Hub
Anyone suggest other accessories?
You may want to consider a USB Ethernet adapter unless you are pretty sure you will have an optimal WiFi signal.
Something like this would be a great USB Stick accessory:
3 port USB hub and 10/100 ethernet
http://dx.com/p/usb-1-1-10-100mbps-ethernet-3-usb-2-0-ports-hub-adapter-white-10cm-125259
(I know I keep linking to dx.com, but I am not a plant. I have no relation with DX, except that I have ordered from them in the past.)
I have the mx2. Will the hubs work to add more devices to this? I'd like to run a HDD as well as the rc12 remote from the same USB port. For some reason my mini USB port is very delicate and I have to wiggle the wire for the mx2 to.pick it up

Yeah I tried to find something on craigslist but came up with nothing. ebay has some but I don't like buying electronics from other people. Best buy has them for $55. I just found a $25 gift card but still not sure if its worth it lol How good does it work with games? Main reason for all this is my xbox 360 broke and don't have the money to buy a new one. Also with the possibility of a new one coming out this year, I'd rather wait. But I'd like to play games still but the touch screen just isn't efficient.
Huh? You guys didn't know you could do it without an OTG cable? I was under the impression that 99% of people just used the PC Software.
BTW, MAKE sure you buy an original Sony controller. If not, you'll probably never even get it synced. Sir_earl has said countless times that 3rd party controllers aren't the same and he hasn't really been able to support them.

Ok so I'm going to use a computer that has windows 7 on it. Now will the controller always stay synced up to my phone even if I use it with my PS3, or will I have to hook it up to the computer everytime I want to use it?
Edit - Windows 7 to the f'ing rescue! Playing Deadtrigger with a controller is so much better. Made the game 10 times better for me. Between flashing ROMS for the N7 and S3, I am in flasher heaven minus the tatas but hey that's what a girlfriends for right?
