[Q] Buying Tablet - Languages Standard? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i decided to buy a tablet for my grandma, i've found one that peeked my interest and it's somewhat of an ipad mini crossed with a nexus 7. ( http://netxia.cn/thread-8568-1-1.html , you can get them on taobao, i have yet to find a site about these in english )
I like the chipset it's sporting and the other features are great, no bt is a kick in the teeth but hey, who cares, there's wifi and ftp.
Right, so my main concern is - will this have languages other than asian ones? I certainly hope so, so my question is whether or not it's possible to do that and if so is it a common practice among asian manifacturers?

VGA Adapter for Android Tablets?

Hi guys,
Been searching around and doing my research on several android tablets (old, new, yet to be released), but i realised non actually have a vga-out adapter or support this via a propietary connector like the Ipad does.
This kinds of limits the use case scanarios for android tablets in the workplace.
Can anyone direct me to a particular model that actually supports vga?
appreciate the help!!!
Hmm.....no one has any idea?
Appreciate any help, thanks!
Im curious about the same thing. My searches brought me to this thread.

[Q] apple trackpad support for cm9?

Is there any way to create a flash able zip that could add support for the apple magic track pad to the pre alpha build of cm9? I know it is supported in some custom roms but hc 3.2 touchwiz did not have support and neither does cm9? So is there any way to add support or should I just wait for an official build of cm9?
Any help is greatly appreciated
Clarification:
Also when connecting to the track pad it pairs perfectly and my tab even recognizes it as the apple magic trackpad, but my guess is do to lack of support the pointer does not appear and the trackpad is quite useless. I bought this back when I first got my tab and I wasn't able to locally purchase any bt mouse's because my local tech shops are quite bad at having things in stock. So I'm kinda stuck with the trackpad and don't want it to become an expensive paperweight.
Once again thanks in advance for any help
I don't have a galaxy, but I'm interested in the outcome of this. I wonder if there is some kind of generic magic trackpad support that can be compiled in? On devices like the nexus, surely they didn't spend a lot of time coding in the trackpad just for that device - surely they're leveraging a generic driver?

[Q] android car radio

I am looking for help on choosing the right android radio for my car.
I have a forester 2011 with gps buit in, but that super feature removed the a2dp fonctionalty !
That is all I wanted! !!
I have read these 2 thread AN-21U and 4.2.2 a9 dual core
These 2 are hard to find on ebay !
I have a galaxy s5, note 2014 and wife has galaxy s3... we are very in android.
What I would like on the radio is:
- a2dp perfectly working
-good gps with available free updates (without having to always use google maps on tethering from my phone). But Google maps still available
- port for microphone (unless the micro from the head unit is good for phone call. .. but I doubt it! ). I could use the one already installed in my car
-steering wheel control. .. they all seams to have it
-able to browse Internet and YouTube videos (on tethering)... flash player probably working with firefox...
-torque apps should work. .. already using it on my phone (OBDII)
-google account working linked with chrome
-good radio reception. .. the is a must since this is my. ...radio! !
-fast boot time. .. or even being able to stay on sleep mode. I guess 30 secondes is fast enough, but might get slower with more apps I guess !
-tv tunner would be awesome
-reverse camera
Am I dreaming wanting all this ?
Between 350 and 400$ should be doable !
Root is not necessary since I might end up with more problems. (Radio not working, steering wheel issue, ect) But rooting can solve a bunch of problem too...
Thank you very much for your help.
Reading both thread above did not really helped me. .. the first one seams to have a bunch of issues. .. and icannot find the second on ebay on simple double din .
Martin L.
This one seams ok... would it be a good choice ?
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=301197118041&alt=web
Is it one of the 2 listed above ?
Please give me a little help here!
Even if I read all the descriptions. .. it is always better to ask a person who owns one!
Too easy to waste money buying something you think does all you want! !
Thank you

ive also been on the market and looking but from reading peoples post on different h/u its pretty save to say its all a gamble most of these units are chinese built and the build quality is questionable some units have good features but lack memory the units you may wanna look into more would be the ones with some sort dev support and root those seems to be the ones that if there is an issue at least someone can come up with a solution also you may wanna stay away from h/u that are windows CE as they run android on a top of the windows and may lack android features
Thank you very much for your help.
That is exactly what I thought, a gumble !
After reading the first thread posted above (AN-21U), it seams to have to much issues.
But the other about the 4.2.2 a9 dual core seams very interesting. but I cannot find any of those on ebay searching by the names HuiFei/KGL (KGL), Klyde (KLD) or RoadMaster (RM) !
There is a buch of 4.2.2 a9 dual core.. 1.2ghz, 1.6ghz, 1gb ram, 2Gb ram .. they might all be fake, I cannot know !
It seams all the auction lake on real detail about the product (model #, ect).
Is there anyway I can by certain I order on of the HuiFei/KGL (KGL), Klyde (KLD) or RoadMaster (RM) ?

Hello Martin,
I dont know your car type, but I recomend DX.com for buy things from China. Try to find with: "autoradio" and "android" keyword.
Eg.: Joyous 8" J-8813-8A for VW group cars.
BR, Mark
It is said in my forst post that you quoted, it is a subaru forester 2011 !
Simple double DIN will work in my car, no special fitting is needed !
If I find a good one with RK3066 processor, does that mean this is the right one (from the second link of my first post) ?
Just an example, looking at that file: HuiFei/Klyde/RoadMaster Reference, I clearly see what the Hui Fei and roadmaster look like.
But since there is more info on the Klyde one, this is the one I would like to buy but I cannot see what the head unit look like !
Searching the web for Klyde android car, I see a LOT og different model ... which one is the right one ?
I don't think any Klyde model will work, I need the right one !
Same thing for RoadMaster ... I can find the model I see on the picture on ebay, but no way to be sure it is the right one !
This video is for Klyde: Youtube Video but does not seams to be the one on the file !
If it is, this might be the one I want !
Thank you for your help !
The problem is they are all Chinese built so they tend to be all nock offs of each other you have to get a confirmed hardware specs for the klyde unit and then when you search look for the same hardware its small difference in hardware it could be the GPU or the ram or etc. Even though they all look similar its the internals that will tell you which is which ....I'm currently looking for a unit with 4.4 and 1024*720 screen resolution I found one in a Europe site but am trying to see if I find it on eBay I have a wrx sti ::subie wave::
I see a lot of Ouku that seams good, but as it is not mentioned anyway in here, I guess these are not a good idea to buy !
They where good at one point but now theirs more competition out there

Thank you for sending me this link: New Model, but I find it weird that they wrote: can be upgraded to Android 5.0 .....
I need a little help here !
I have 25Tabs onped on my Chrome, I read everything written here on XDA.
I can see that the RM are bugless, so that might be what I want!
But I find no where I can buy them exect from aliexpress.com, but they are not cheap at all !
This one seams perfect and cheap, but from WinLink ?!?!?! WinLink
Or that one from Zhoon with 7" display that seams good: Zhoon
Or one from Infidini Infidini
All I really want is to be able to charge my cell (1 USB and Built-in Wifi), have my OBDII bluwtooth connected with my cell. And be able to have my music on bluetooth. Also have the reverse camera and steering wheelm control !
They practicly all have these features, but the best is a pure android and being able to root !
All the link I find here to buy one are no longer working, so ther eis no place to buy one.
Except from aliexpress.com where Rm are really expensive, and Ebay where you have no idea what you are buying !!
Please, I want to order one! I am so tired of my Pioneer always crashing in my car !
This is what I am looking for, but I don't want to order 100 of 'em RoadMaster
You want one that is multi channel Bluetooth too if not you either do obd or phone but not both that's something to consider also
Ok, i am really going to buy one, but only need a little piece of advice before i do !
I finally found a klyde not to expensive : klyde
Can i use the bluetooth for anything else then my phone ( with obd dongle for example).
Is the microphone good enough for phone call ?
I have been searching for that model since i see in other threads that they seams to be good. .. with no bugs !
But now that we are already in September, is there better product ?
Maybe this one is better ? http://m.aliexpress.com/item-desc/1948364463.html
please help

[Q] any offers for Nexus 9 LTE ..

I have plan to sell my Nvidia Shield tablet and buy Nexus 9 LTE .
Despite the low price of Shield tablet but there are some drawbacks .. Specially the poor WiFi signal and lack of accessories, and really it well
Are there any offers for nexus 9 LTE ?
Mostly I'm going to use it for taking notes , how is nexus 9 with Stylus ? Any suggestions and experiences here ?
If i can get the WiFi version, do I can use 4G usb modem through OTG cable ?
I can't quite tell what you're asking here, but you are not allowed to buy/sell/trade on XDA anymore. You may use your login/password on Swappa.com
As for your other questions, maybe someone with experience can answer
The Nexus 9's K1 doesn't have the Direct Stylus tech from the Tegra 4, so using a stylus will not be the same. I have a stylus that I tried for an art app, but the precision isn't there. As for writing sentences, you'll have a hard time drawing clean letters.

Edit. Maybe should read first

Your better off going with a Samsung Tablet if your looking for a Tablet to use a Stylus with.

Tab 7+5G and no factory NFC

Hi all, as we know the Tab7+5G has no NFC (Near Field Communication) hardware or software/firmware installed
by Samsung, while I know this is not a mobile phone it has everything else that a mobile phone can do, so
I don't understand why Samsung would leave off such a cheap production add on, maybe something to do
with their flat magnetic Keyboard/Cover installation to the back of S7 Tablet?
Anyway, for the expert members (I have looked around and googled) is there anyway I can
install an aftermarket removable NFC Dongle into USB C port and perhaps run an appropriate
App to activate so I can get working NFC on this S7 Tablet, or is it impossible or non-existent.
Thanks from this old guy, sorry to ask such a question but I cant find clear answers.
Yes, it's true, this tab lacks NFC. When I bought it, I just assumed that it had it, and was surprised that it doesn't.
It also doesn't have a proximity sensor, which is more important to me, but not a deal breaker.
Another thing that really ****ing peeves me is that you can't get the 256/500GB variant's if you also want LTE/5g. For some retarded reason, they restricted the carrier versions to 128gb only. Why can't I have 500GB AND 5g compatibility in the same tab? The WiFi only/carrier version's of the Tab S7+ are exactly the same size, there's no technical reason why the carrier versions can't have the larger sizes too.
Who are we lowly users to question the design decisions of Samsung?
