So I have the Sirius XM app installed on my Xoom, Galaxy S3 and Nexus 7 (both nakasi and flo). On my Xoom, it appears that it's a different version of the app because it is displaying in a 'tablet UI' type of display which is very nice looking and includes landscape support, but on GS3 and N7 (both 2012 and 2013 versions) it shows as a regular phone app. I even pulled the apk from Xoom and tried installing on my phone and still got the phone display. Is there any way to get this app to display in the 'tablet UI' mode on my Nexus 7 or my Galaxy S3?

Roku has recently updated and app for Android to include local streaming of video files. I, however cannot utilize it because my Galaxy Nexus is not supported. I do not know why it's not supported.
As of this date of writing, per the Google Play website the app supports:
Samsung Galaxy SIII
Samsung Galaxy S4
Nexus 4
HTC One, and
Nexus 7 (2012 model)
I would like to know if there is a way for a rooted Galaxy Nexus to benefit from the app update. I was thinking about build.prop, but I don't want to have to change it back when I'm done using the app.
Thoughts?
Friendly bump.
you would need someone to pull it down in apk form and give it to you, which it might not work.
OR
ask whoever wrote the app to update for the GN
But the likelihood that the app is written specifically for each device would be low, versus the app poling the device to see what it is, and then given the additional features, right?

Shows compatible for my toroplus (in google play). Still showing for you as incompatible? I wouldn't mind sending you the .apk if you want to try it? Are you using a custom dpi for your ROM? I noticed that if I picked anything but 240 or the standard 320 for my gnex, many apps in google play would show up as incompatible.
Hi,

Maybe there is a way to unofficialy acticate this feature?
If so, what first? Update to official 4.3, or 4.4.2 (OmniROM i.e.)
I would appreciate your help,

I am hoping that someone may know the answer to this problem I am having
I got a wireless Logitech K360 Keyboard and mouse M310, and they will not work on Nexus 7 2013 (Kitkat 4.4.2). I got a USB OTG adapter, of course. The setup works great on my Galaxy Nexus (Cyanogen 11 Kitkat ROM)
From my research, someone said Logitech did not support Nexus 7 2013 (???). I have tried 4 different kernels provided in this forum (Don't try Franco and Glitch, or you won't be able to get passed the boot screen. I had to remove battery and go back to stock kernel in recovery!)
I have not tried any custom ROM, not sure they will work. Anyone knows one?
Thank you for your input!

Just tried K360 and Performance MX mouse, doesn't work on OmniROM. Works fine on S4 i9505 EchoeROM.
The Logitech K400 Keyboard and combined Touchpad works great out of the box on Nexus 7 2013.

Hi everyone.
First off I apologize if this question was already answered somewhere in the forum, but I did a search and was not able to find an answer to my question. Let me say that I am more than happy with this tablet (I had very bad experience with some old Asus tablets) and this is very good thus far. The only real concern that I have is when you use it in combination with the Google Chromecast. I used it with 2 applications so far, one is Plex and the other one is Deezer and I noticed a very similar behavior: in both cases the applications got closed. Even if they create a background service through the notification in the status bar. Could it be something related to the G Pad itself or could it be something related to the Wifi connection / Chromecast behavior?
Thanks everyone for the help
I just hopped on here to ask a question about Chromecast and my G Pad... Unrelated to your questions. However, I can say i've used Plex extensively and haven't had any issues. Sometimes youtube will do weird things tho.
My question relates to the recent update to chromecast that allows screen mirroring... i've updated my chromecast and my g pad to match the latest firmware and version.
still no setting my chromecast app that says "share screen"
it's there on my nexus 7 2014 tho.
what gives.

Hi there. Sorry if it's a bit obvious answer but not all Android devices are supported for screen mirroring (unless rooted). As per the Chromecast website, only the following devices are officially supported:
Nexus 4 Nexus 5 Nexus 7 (2013) Nexus 10 Samsung Galaxy S4 Samsung Galaxy S5 Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Samsung Galaxy Note 10 (2014) HTC One M7 LG G Pro2 LG G2 and LG G3 running KitKat MR1 or higher.
I stumbled upon a pretty neat feature today. I own a Nexus Player and I installed the remote app on my Nexus 6. This obviously allows you to control your Nexus Player from your phone. Well, I then seen a notification pop up on my Huawei Watch. The remote app automatically installed on it as well. It surprisingly works very well too. I don't see myself using my watch rather than the controller, I only installed it on my phone in case the original controller is broken, lost, etc. I just thought it was pretty cool is all and figured I would post for others to check it out.
Exactly what remote app ?
I have a Nexus 6 (Nexus 6P was not a big enough upgrade) and a Nexus Player.

Good Question. It installed itself after I had installed Google's "Android TV Remote Control" app on my Nexus 6. It is obviously a spin off of it by Google. It is called "Remote Control" with same app logo.
