Simply purchase one of these adapters: http://goo.gl/D3fEu9 and this OTG cable: http://goo.gl/lJNqai

Before rebooting, disconnect your WiFi, plug in the adapter and the ethernet dongle, then boot. If you need IP settings other than DHCP, you'll have to manually configure it, but your Nexus Player will autodetect the dongle upon boot and you'll have options.

Note that the adapter is only 100Base-T, I haven't found a gigabit unit that is recognized by the kernel yet.
[Nexus Player General] Zaf9670:
At first I thought this was about a 100 meter cable from the title. Might want to edit the title.

Great find though! I'd like to potentially add ethernet at some point to mine. I at least have an AC network.
[Nexus Player General] isketerol:
1 GBs would need USB 3 which isn't on the NP.
[Nexus Player General] Elrondolio:
There are USB 2.0 gigabit adapters like this one:

http://www.amazon.ca/Plugable-Gigabit-Ethernet-Network-Adapter/dp/B003VSTDFG/

I don't have that one, but I know the chipset it has in it is fully supported in lollipop. While the above wouldn't give you true gigabit speeds due to usb 2's 480mpbs ceiling, you'd get close to 300mpbs which is three or more times what you get out of a 100mbps adapter.
[Nexus Player General] jumpmanjay:
Can confirm this works on initial boot, bypassing the prompt for WiFi settings.
[Nexus Player General] adoute:
I have an old usb 10/100 ethernet adapter that i used to use with a really old WDTV box. I plugged it in (using an OTG adapter) before my first boot. Everything worked perfectly without any intervention on my part. There weren't any prompts regarding the network that I remember.

4.3gb bluray rips play fine using Kodi beta 5. I haven't had any network throughput issues.
[Nexus Player General] nyijedi:
Can someone with a working adapter post a link for it, preferably an Amazon link if it exists? I bought this one and it doesn't work - nothing gets detected.

same here

Yep got the same one off of ebay and doesnt work!

pretty bummed but would love if someone could please share one that does work!
[Nexus Player General] peef:
The one I linked to in the first post definitely does work. I first tried one "for Android" on Amazon that had a Micro USB plug and it did not work. If someone finds one with a Micro USB, I'd love to know because it would eliminate the cable requirement. FYI, the one I linked in the first post has an "ASIX AX88772 USB 2.0 Ethernet" chipset.
[Nexus Player General] Zaf9670:
Me again

So I modified my right angle USB OTG because I didn't want to wait for shipping on getting a new one. I have a TRENDNet USB Ethernet adapter (TU2-ET100 I believe but mine is blue) and it works just fine. Thought I would mention that and maybe they have a 10/100/1000 that might work.
[Nexus Player General] isketerol:
This adapter works great:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ET4KHJ2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I bought this one, works fine for me

Also keep in mind that for some adapter you need to boot into recovery first.... than boot into Android. dont ask me why that works but i had to for my adapter. try it with yours before you buy another.
[Nexus Player General] nyijedi:
Thanks for the link, and thanks for the tip about booting into recovery. I was unaware of that.

Is there any way to boot into recovery on this thing without hooking up to a PC and using adb? The location of my Nexus Player doesn't make it easy to connect to a PC while keeping the power on.

EDIT: Nevermind. I found that button on the bottom. Are you saying you just boot into recovery with the ethernet cable already attached, and then boot from recovery and the Ethernet connection is then automatically detected? If so, that unfortunately still doesn't work with my adapter. I'm going to order that other one that you posted. Thanks.
[Nexus Player General] mejdam:
yep thats exactly what i meant. sorry it didnt work

Trendnet USB 3.0 Gigabit works fine

I bought a trendnet usb 3.0 gigabit adapter and it worked fine (I know it's not actually gigabit since the usb port is USB 2.0 on nexus player). The dongle was like 19 bucks at Frys. I also bought another gigabit dongle from frys as I needed the trendnet one for my chromebook and the new one I bought worked fine too, I just forgot the brand it was.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattjsorensen:
I'm currently running rooted stock + xposed modules + TWRP. Today, I received a persistent notification "System update available. Android 5.0 System Update". I don't want to update to Lollipop right now. What is the best way to block the update and remove the notification?

I've tried a few things from other threads (other phones, specific ROMs, etc), but none of them have worked.

I assume the OTA would fail anyway with the custom recovery?

Thanks.

Have you removed back cover once? Because I cut the antenna stickers trying to do so and my GPS stopped working..

To be sure if your problem comes from the antenna, remove the back cover, take a thin piece of steel like a paper clip and put it against the contactor while trying your GPS. They are located on the top left corner of the phone when screen facing down

O.k., so here is a Heimdall image for the FULL STOCK image. This is setup for the retail version, for those that are DEV EDITION and you know what your doing, you can selectively remove bootloader and other items idependently if you so choose to flash.

** If you do not know what you are doing or have not heard of Heimdall, for us Linux and MAC guys, do not flash or attempt to flash this. **

If you do know what your doing, then you will appreciate this file and how it makes it very simple for you to flash this to your Note 4 from Heimdall.

I just received my 32 GB Nexus 6 that I purchased on the Motorola store and I have not been able to successful activate it on Sprint. When they activate the phone both LTE and 3g work perfectly, but I am unable to make or receive calls and SMS . When talking to sprint they show that the device is activated correctly and can not find a reason why it would not work. Currently i am waiting on sprint to work a ticket for this issue, but I was wondering if any one else has run into this and if so were and how were you able to get it resolved.

possibly due to wifi calling enabled on your line?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xTmDarren:
after activating mine over the phone and watching my phone "update device config" by itself.. When I finally decided to make a phone call 30 mins later and noticed it not working.. I had to go under carrier settings and "update device config" a few times before my calling finally started working.. since then everything had worked fine..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dego41:
Sprint does not have WiFi calling to my knowledge, if they do I have never used it or enabled it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dego41:
I have been through that so many times and no luck. The only thing I can think of is the IMEI whit listing issues I have been reading about with the CDMA carriers.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dego41:
Just in case any one else is having this issue or considering buying a Nexus 6 from Motorola to use with Sprint I wanted to follow up with how this ended.

After a week of going back and forth with Sprint, talking to them at least once a day and having multiple tickets opened and closed they were not able to provide a solution. The final answer they gave me was that the IMEI was not compatible with Sprint, even though the phone should be. They then continued to say that unless the phone is purchased from them they can not guarantee it will work and suggested I return the Motorola purchased phone. In the end the phone was more important to me than being a Sprint customer, and luckily I was in a position to leave Sprint after being a customer for 12 years. After porting my number over to AT&T my Nexus 6 is now working perfectly.

I can't say this will be an issue for all users purchasing a Nexus 6 from a seller other that Sprint but it is something to consider before doing so.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSinfinite:
That sucks man, well I ported my # over to Sprint from Verizon and mine activated just fine - then again I didn't order mine from Motorola. I don't know your situation is a bit ridiculous though maybe your nano sim needed to be replaced..
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dego41:
That is one of the first things we tried. I honestly thing it has something to do with the IMEI white listing but that is just my conclusion from reading other articles regarding similar issues.

I had put in an idea for any developers hanging around in RW's forums, on to have possible custom roms. This may or may not be possible depending if you can get around the bootloader/no custom kernels- lock. I do not have a RW phone myself, so I cannot work on this project, and I don't have much experience in customizing roms myself, though importing CM's code shouldn't be to hard.

If anyone is up to a task on making a RW custom rom, here's the link to a possible method on doing so:

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] chriss9:
My daughter dropped her HDX 7 and the screen shattered. I was able to secure a new one for her but she had some serious sweat equity into a few games she was playing on the old one. I am trying to get the game files of the old one to move to the new one but the touch screen won't work and as such, will not take her password. (due to the drop).

Is there an easy way to bypass this? I am trying to access the kindle drive from my PC for purposes of copying the files (done a million times) but with the device technically locked, the device does not show in file explorer.

Any suggestions welcome.

Thank You!

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] EncryptedCurse:

No I don't. The device is purely vanilla right as it came from the factory.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] lekofraggle:
Chriss9, you should try to get adb working. That should allow you to pull data.

Can you tell me where to get it and maybe some instructions? Thanks so much!!

Chris
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] lekofraggle:
Look into the rootkit in the dev section. That should install the drivers for you. Then, search for how to use adb. You may need to download the developer kit from Google as the toolkit is a little limited.

You need to pull the data to your computer then push it to the new Kindle.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Grtschnk:
ADB pull on locked phone? // Simulate input

It may be that ADB pull won't work with a locked (stock) device... But of course you could still give it a try.

Here is a smaller download of the ADB:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

However another possible way to use the ADB for your purpose would be:

adb shell
input tap x y

Where you would use the input tap x y to simulate a screen tap. Tapping the screen "virtually" since it's broken. This way you could unlock it (and then use the pull command). For x y and you have to insert the correct screen position of the keys on the keyboard. I haven't tested it, but we could give it a try. Just tell us if you have any luck connecting through ADB!

regards Grtschnk
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] chriss9:
Thanks for the suggestion. I installed ADB on my PC and when I use "ADB DEVICES" my device does not show on the list though it does show in Windows explorer. Am I out of luck here?

Chris
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Grtschnk:
Assuming you have the latest Fire OS 4.5.1 : (If you have the older version installed there may still be a glimpse of hope (see long answer))

Short answer: Sorry, looks grim. :(

Your ADB is switched off and there is no way I know of to switch it on.

I wanted to make sure it wasn't just a driver issue with your computer so I checked with my Kindle:

ADB set off: Kindle in Windows, but not detected by ADB-program

ADB set on: Kindle in Windows and detected by ADB-program

Long answer (may be frustrating to read because it states all the possibilities the Kindle lacks): On a nonlocked (in terms of bootloader, not screenlock) device there would have been some possibilities. Install a custom recovery that has ADB built in and pull the files or try to enable ADB from within recovery inside the ROM. If the device could act as a USB host a mouse or keyboard could have been hooked up. The Kindle supports Bluetooth input devices but they have to be set up first (from within the device, not possible without touch). If your device has older Fire OS you could try the mentioned steps, however that's beyond my expertise. So I don't know if it is possible/will work. You'd have to check other threads about flashing the device or hope that someone else posts advice in this thread.

I became a Kindle owner quite recently, so I can't guarantee everything I wrote is correct, but I believe as long as noone magically finds a way to unlock the bootloader the more experienced users will agree to my post.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] lekofraggle:
Did you install the driver as well? I recommended the toolkit because comes with the driver and if you are not used to installing adb drivers on Windows, it can be a bear. But, Grtschnk may be right. I always enable it n all my devices. It is the first thing I do.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Grtschnk:
Just to be really sure about possible driver issue: You (chris) could try to connect an Android phone via ADB (I'm assuming you have one). Enable ADB on it and see if connects. Unfortunately this will only prove more that your Kindle turned into a piece of plastic :/
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] lekofraggle:
Grtschnk, unfortunately, that won't prove anything. ADB requires separate drivers for each device. Again, that is why I recommended the rootkit. It sets it up for you and can even test it.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] Grtschnk:
That's why I compared with my Kindle, computer and S2 (CM11). Newly set up computer, no SDK, just Minimal ADB. Never installed special drivers for Kindle or S2. Newest Visual Studio (2013) runs on the machine, but without additional packages there is no Android support.

However if I was in the situation myself I would have also tried the full SDK.
