Hi guys, from day 1 I was like wtf is going on with this Ubuntu One and this old Nexus 7 model, I mean I do understand to support both but when they support only old one , well that's not right. So news came another day that Ubuntu One will officially support new Nexus 7 model instead of old one. I have a question about desktop environment. What I'll need to have complete experience, like to have my nexus 7 connected to monitor and have mouse and keyboard. I guess mouse and keyboard is Bluetooth and monitor is that SlimPort Tech.

When Ubuntu Touch debuted it was 6 months BEFORE the 2013 Nexus 7 was released.
Ubuntu One is cloud storage.
Day one for you is like day 357 for those of us who have been following this from the beginning.
With the announcement of Android 5.0, I was thiinking of new possibilities. I have an old tablet (1st Gen Kindle Fire), and I was wondering if there was any way you could create an Android TV ROM to install on a tablet, wether it's the Kindle Fire or a Nexus 7 or something. You could then connect an external display (if your device supports that) so you would have the full Android TV experience without forking over another $100 just by using old tech. Are there any guides to do something like this?
Yup. I had the same thought. I'd love to do this with old Galaxy Nexus.
I would love it on my nexus 7 2013!
I'm looking for this idea on my old phone and tablet / even dual boot -> that's really good one for home.
P/S: using HDMI cable (slimport or LHM) to connect to TV
It'd probably be possible, if you can run SDR touch on a phone, it'd surely be possible to run a TV Android version with some tweaking and a RTLSDR Dongle(they were originally for TV)
Hi guys,
I just received a few hours ago my Nexus 9 and I checked both, Slimport and MHL but doesn't work. The Slimport device works fine with my Nexus 5 and my TV but the Nexus 9 doesn't work.
Cheers.
Worst nexus device ever.

I'm very disappointed with this issue...
Maybe could be a problem with the inside configuration of my Slimport, I had notice that some Slimport works fine in some devices but doesn't work in others due changes inside micro usb port (different cable connections).
But still.... In my Nexus 5 the Slimport works absolutely fine....

somehow it seems you hit the nail. i was very waiting for the nexus 9 and i am so disapointed what i see about it that it makes me really sad. this device is so full of wrong decisions, irrational design flaws and build quality issues that i am nearly speachless. and then it is quite expensive for the few it offers.
it is quite "interesting" that the nexus 6 PHONE gets 3GB ram, upto 64GB rom and the 64bit os nexus 9 only 2GB and a zram swap using 512MB to gain a little bit by compression >.> and then it seems to have some issues with otg, lack of micro hdmi or slimport etc.
i don't get it. what's the point htc? trying to debut as the worst nexus manufactor ever?
Terrible. This is the final nail in the coffin for my "should I get the Nexus 9" decision. Glad I got the Shield Tablet at release and will stick with that for a while now, probably until Nvidia release their next tab.
I have a Google answer about this but I can't post links after 10 post
In google groups, in product forums go to Nexus 9 and find mi post named "Nexus 9 and Slimport doesn't work"
They said to me that the micro usb port doesn't support video output.
Hi guys,
So if I get everything right that means : the new Nexus 9 doesn't have wireless charging. It doesn't have support for MHL nor SlimPort.
OK : maybe it's really handy with a Chromecast key... but that's a foul limitation.
Chromecast simply does not work when you have no Wi-Fi.
I'm a professor.
I teach at University.
I want to be able to show .ppt presentations to my students.
But I don't always have a network, or the LP to the University network.
So, I just can't do it ? While I coudl do it with my Nexus 7 2012 ?
That is a huge step backwards... and I think for that simple reason I won't get the Nexus 9 but will try to find a nice N7 2013 LTE instead...
Chances are, I'll have more functionnality and pay less than the half !
The real sad thing about that is that the "Nexus Legend" is vanishing... Not fading, but melting like a snowflake in August !
Bye Bye Nexus... Loved the N4, loved the N7 2012, loved the N5...
Regards.

Haven't Google announced that Chromecast will work without a WiFi network in the last google IO?

Hi,
Well, it might be.
Shall investigate this further.
Anyways, I don't think the Nexus 9 will make it to my door : too expensive for a feature limited tablet.
Regards.
Likely just not a popular thing to have. I have a slimport cable that i just never used for the past year once I got chromecast. Now i understand I'm not a professor with that specific need. if that's a deal breaker I'd just return it get a 2013 N7 and spend the $300 you save on something else. maybe a shield tablet. Tablets, tablets everywhere!

Best Buy has a micro USB USB Connector
by Samsung for $19.99 usd Works great on my Tab 4 7.0 and My Note 4.
hooked up Bluetooth Mouse, Storage Flash Drive, and even My PS3 controller. All Worked Flawlessly

I don't get why anyone would spend 20 bucks for an adapter you can get for 3 dollars on ebay, and very likely the EXACT same item..
I have maybe 12 lying around from previous devices and ALL of them work... All generic as well..
If your willing to wait the 3 weeks to a month... and are patient, you can get it MUCH cheaper and free shipping as well..
Also if there is a Microcenter in your area, they sell them for around 9 dollars..
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.

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