Nexus 7 first GEN compatible ? - Samsung Gear Fit

Hi everyone,
NIce to see a new thread
I've got a Nexus 7 (first Gen) so I'm wondering if I could use the Gear fit on it ?
I mean no notifications probably but who cares.
Does the Gear fit require NFC btw ?
Thanks

There is a thread for this, but anyway the best phone i can recommend you to buy is the galaxy nexus due to the infinite support. optimus G or the nitro hd are also good options. do not buy the new htc's since they are being replaced every 1 month. Xperia products like the xperia t seem to be very good devices if you can get them but once again best phone for cm 10 is the galaxy nexus

[Q] ANT+ support on N9?

As per subject, I'd like to upgrade for a quicker tablet than my n7 2012 for use with my bike turbo trainer...... but does the n9 have native ANT+ support?
Thanks in advance....
The info I gave on the Nexus Help Forum Google Group about the Nexus 6 applies to the Nexus 9 too:
There's 2 parts to this question:
1. Will Android 5.0 include the ANT+ API's?
If it does, then the Nexus 6 9 will definitely include the ANT+ hardware - as the Nexus devices showcase any new OS functionality. We haven't heard any news about this though, so I doubt it.
2. Will the Nexus 6 9 have ANT+ hardware?
If this is the case, then it should be possible to add the software piece in a custom ROM/AOSP build, just like was done for the Moto G 4G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/general/ant-moto-g-4g-maybe-t2875420
or possibly using the ANT+ Enabler app (if you want to pay for it) in the same way as the Nexus 5 and 10: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.z2software.antplus
Fingers crossed.

Looking at the iFixit Nexus 9 teardown, yes it does have ANT+ hardware (the Broadcom BCM4354)!
Note that the patch for the Moto G 4G mentioned above will not work, as that is for a Qualcomm chip.

[Q] Should I buy or wait for the next gen?

Hello everyone
1st sorry for my bad english.
I am in the market for a tracker device and im a big fan of Samsung so I was thinking of buying this smart watch/tracker.
Would you advise me to wait for the next gen ? I have fears its might be a bit bulky and probably samsung will be coming up with a new version very soon.
Also is it fully compatible with note 3 and S6 ?
Should I get this or the Jawbone up3 ?
Thanks
Hi! I'm using it with Note 3 (Android 5.0.x, stock rom), without any problems.
You should read some reviews about the fit, because it's not for everyone. I cannot compare it to other devices, bacause i only have experince with gear fit.

S Pen and S9

Any idea on how to use S Pen on S9/S9+? I am Ok to use even a similar one.

Likely not an option. The screen doesn't have the corresponding technology to receive S-Pen input. Note 8, Chromebook Pro/Plus, and probably the S Tab 3 use a technology in the screen as well as the pen.
Thank you for the update. But are there any other options not necessarily S Pen?
I am using the galaxy s9 plus and if I add an activity using nova launcher, under Samsung DeX there is an activity called s pen input mode, calls on com.android.launcher3.settings.SPenInputModePrefer enceActivity, and when activated pops up permission denied. Maybe there is some sort of hope?
Stylus
Hi!
I'm an artist and recently bought an s9 because my s7 broke.
My husband loves having the newest phone and bought a note 9 and I must say I was very jealous of his SPen... even though a note 9 is not practical for me because it's too large!
He bought me a stylus from Amazon. Works great!

Which one is it, do you know? I want one so bad that works with the S9+
There are a number of styluses that would work, but they won't be as responsive as those that come with the Note series.
The note series phones have a piece behind the lcd that picks up the stylus from the bite series. It's physical hardware and software that allows them to work as good as they do.
