Controlling TV with N7?

Notice the n7 doesn't have a IR blaster. Is there any way to control my tv/directv? Was thinking there may be a ir blaster that plugs in the micro usb at the bottom or maybe some other way. Tried searching google but couldn't find anything, any of you guys controlling your tv with your new toy?

I use the LG TV 2011 app on my GS3 and new N7. The LG 3DTV I have has a bunch of smart apps like Netflix, VUDU etc, plus its a good replacement for the magic wand remote. In fact I prefer using the app over that remote, though I was surprised it uses Wifi vs Bluetooth. I find the BT smoother to operate.

do you have any problems turning on your tv with the lg 2011 remote? i don't get my n7 til the 1st, but my galaxy s3 can't turn the tv on for whatever reason.

You can always buy the Logitech Harmony Ultimate hub ;P

We have a Roku and use the Roku app. Boom

I use the LG 2013 app with my TV and it works great. TV has to be on the same wifi network tho. Also use the Roku app with my Roku and it works great also.

Incompatible games

Hello.
I've had my g3 for a couple of days now and some of the games i used to play such as bubble witch saga 2 are incompatible with the g3. They don't even appear on the play store, i have to click on the google links.
Is it basically just a case of waiting until they get updated or is there anything i can do?

Email the devs for any app you find that doesn't work, the app itself will be fine they just need to update their play store listing to allow the new resolution.

Same thing with the ESPN SportsCenter app. You'd probably have luck contacting the devs with smaller apps, but with some of the bigger ones, it's probably just a waiting game.

I don't have my 360 yet,(hopefuly on the 18th) but couldn't you just say ok Google whats playing like on the phone. What about like on the phone the little music icon comes up once it recognizes music playing. Does android wear not have these features?

It's not about what's playing in your phone. ..it's about any song that's playing around you. ... .say. in a pub or bar or in a mall. .etc

he meant that the command works on the phone to detect what song is playing in the background .

Fitness Tracker Apps

curious to see if anyone uses the new Underarmour app:
https://www.underarmour.com/en-us/ua-record?iid=bucket
just noticed it today - hoping that it will pick up the Moto 360 data.....

Never mind, UA confirmed that it does not work with moto 360.

Yes it will work with moto 360 by
The under Armour app will work with the moto 360 in a round about way. If you connect it to your Google fit app and use Google fit to track you activities. That is how I get Google fit to sync with myfitnesspal

Right, it works NOW. But back in January, it did not.

Smartwatch 3? typo?

No why?

You are in the wrong section, since smartwatch 3 is using android wear you should be looking in the android wear section of the forums and not under SmartWatch 2 section.

You can try these apps. These are few must have apps for your smart watch.

Runkeeper
