Nvidia Shield and Virgin Media Super Hub - Shield Q&A

Hey all, I just got my Nvidia Shield, I wanted to find out whether anyone uses on with Virgin Medias Super Hub? The specs can be found here - it looks like it should have no issue to do gamestream? Can anyone confirm before I upgrade from the V1 Superhub? (£50 for the V2).
Or would I be better off with the Asus RT-N66U? (£100).

Thanks for any help/advice!

I've tested it out and on 2.4ghz it works surprisingly good! It has the option for 5ghz but I lose signal downstairs so I had to leave it.. Hopefully the new version should not have this issue as it has more antennas.

I don't know if there are going to bemany people who are willing to crack open their TPs to test this. I would also doubt that there are going to be any android drivers since that would require that the developers have a TP with this installed. Very unlikely.
Thanks for this fox!! I was always wanting to see about adding a radio card to the TP. I knew the difference between the cell version and regular version of the TP had to be a simple module connected either via ribbon, coaxial, or both. Some simple empty space ready for a radio card to be plugged into it. I guess I was partially right. :3
I really will consider doing this. Although I am loyal to T-Mobile USA and it doesn't seem to support this Going to check out some disassembly videos and see what I'm up against. But it would be nice to have a cell-capable TP.
Bookmark saved, thanks again!
What about this one?
Ericsson F3307
Seems to be the same one used in epad, so I'm guess there are drivers for it; so I'm guessing it can be used on android, but for webos it'd need porting - maybe from the android version or the linux version (don't know what the dependencies are).
Or maybe others too.

I just want to save someone from damaging their TouchPad doing this mod. The modem will not work on a WiFi model since their boards are different. The 4G model has the connection for the AT&T modem whereas the WiFi model doesn't have the connection present. I've learnt this through swapping parts out for servicing my TouchPad 4G on a mule TouchPad WiFi.

[Q] Sanei N10 and Sixaxis..

hi guys,
im pretty new to the android os so please excuse my lack of knowledge in this area, but i recently bought the Sanei N10 pretty cheap and its not a bad tablet, battery life is an issue, and so is using the web browser, but other than that, i was prettty suprised with it, considering the cost.
anyway, in the 3 days, ive had it, i learnt that you can pair a Original PS3 controller with it and use it with emulators, and that you need the tablet to be rooted in order to do so. So i downloaded the upgrade to 4.0.4 and made sure it was pre rooted. i download the root checker also to double check. and it is rooted. ive downloaded the sixaxis compatibility checker, and it said my device was good to go, so i downloaded the app on the tablet, and also the tool kit off the website. ive followed the instructions, changed the controllers master bt to match the one in the app. and my controller connects then loses connection. it says my controller is a fake or third party, I know my controller is genuine, cos i modify controllers and have pulled this one apart, plus it also came with the playstation.
what am i doing wrong, or is this tablet not compatible with the controller?
id really appreciate your help on this one guys....
Thanks

[Q] Do you think ASUS will add miracast to the 4.2 update of the infinity?

so what do you guys think
What the bloody hell is Miracast?
Oh. Wifi TV. Well, from what google says, Nvidia supports it since July (Before the TF700 came out!), and Qualcomm added support to the S4.
4.2 comes with Support included. (Amazing what Google.com can tell you!)
So probably.
Goody, more WiFi signals cluttering the already way too cluttered frequency space... As if the 50 routers in the street don't make it hard enough to get a decent signal already, now they add Miracast signals to the mix, too.

recommendations under $100

Hey guys,
I'm looking at getting my first android stick pc.
I basically want to use it to browse the net, stream movies and episodes off my network (wifi),
I've looked at the MK809III and the CX919.
Is there any preference from these 2, or something better in this price range.
I need pretty decent WiFi strength as my router is a fair way away.
Any advice would be great.
The CX 919 has great reviews and it has also a WiFi antenna

hi waxtah,
if you tell me how you're going to mosty use the stick I can suggest you some of those.
eg, do you plan to use it mostly for media purpose?
do you plan to make a mini-server out of it?
this has ethernet built in (can't paste url right now, see pm)
also you pretty much can add an ethernet port to any stick which has usb support by using an usb-to-ethernet adapter,
I've used some of these and they work just well,
I'm using a CX-919 with an usb-to-ethernet adapter, basically I've made a full blown media/torrent server

i like my jynxbox android tv
The CX919 looks good so far. Has anyone compared the WiFi on this to the Tronsmart MK908? If it is similar then i may get that one as there seems to be more support/software available for it.
Also, with all the air mouse/remotes available, is there a decent recommended one that people commonly use? Not a super expensive one, but not a cheap nasty one either. I dont know if i want a keyboard one or not yet so if you could recommend a good one with and without keyboard, that would be great.
Thanks

basically i want watch movies. and maybe play games. I'm afraid wifi can not be stable for movies. Jesurun looks perfect and price very good. I think it good choice for me. Thank you.
I just got my cx919 yesterday. Fired it up and it was extremely fast. Tried netflix and dlna and playing xvid, mkv, off USB thumb drive . All played well with no hiccups. The only thing I did not care for was the stock ROM. So flashed bobs Finless JB 4.2...Was a bit of a pain to install drivers. BUT got it done and now rooted and no issues with apps from playstore. Have had no issues with wireless. I am going to refresh however as with Finless rom. You get choices on how large you want the partition for apps to be. I had a problem trying to choose the 4gb choice. So I got stuck with the 2gb partition. Yuck. But thats my fault. Overall this little device has handled everything well. I also got a cheap air mouse_kb to go with it. 23 bucks. Total for all was 103. Now. I made my purchase through Amazon. So to have a little peace of mind. Cost me 20 bucks more. But I felt more secure knowing I had some backup if something went wrong. That is purely my choice and opinion. Anyway I love this thing. BTW. Most games play well too. I still have to get a BT controller though. But I have not read of anyone complaining about BT on bobs ROM...at least.

Have a Favii Smart Stick, looking for something better, supports 5ghz wifi

So the Smart stick running a custom rom was cool for a while. The modded version of XBMC using MX player is great for using the 1channel and icefilms plug ins, but using netflix or HBO go is absolutely horrible. I was thinking of just tossing it on the bedroom tv and upgrading to one of the quad core devices for the main room but I have no clue which one to choose. Do any of them support 5ghz wifi for better video streaming? Which is the best if I wanted to play games? Best wifi signal ect. It seems every review on here has people that love their model and people that absolutely hate it.
