Ways to Increase Storage - Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Given that the Nexus 9 does not have a slot for SD cards, are there any ways to actually increase the storage capacity for apps beyond eliminating bloatware?
Perhaps adding an SMB share as emulated internal storage? I'm also wondering whether there are any micro USB drives, which can be seated between the Nexus and the charge cable. Preferably tiny and sturdy, with a male micro USB connector on one end and a female micro USB receptacle on the other.
I'd like a solution that doesn't involve attaching a drive to and monopolizing the USB port, and encumbering the tablet.

Are any of you aware of any devices like that?

Don't think there is, never heard of them.
There is the alternative of Micro USB Host OTG Cable with Micro USB Power

Above is device/rom dependent and may not always function.
Edit: - Don't believe it works on the Nexus 9!

It's not what I'm looking for but I appreciate the suggestion.
I'm not sure whether the devices I'm describing would be advisable if they do exist, as they might wrench at the charge port.

well you can get a long mini usb cable that long and then get the little mini to micro adapter tip for it and it would work just fine!
canadiantire.ca has some interesting usb options.. do a search for usb they have some plug and cable assemblies that could be of interest.
Search Ebay (UK) for leads: USB 2.0 A MALE to MICRO USB B MALE DATA CHARGING CABLE (item 290441711518)
And Mini Car Charger USB Adapter (item 390250810047)
Cost peanuts
there are many usb car chargers that are simply a small cylinder that practically fit into the cigarette lighter hole and have a standard female usb plug on it. you could get one of those and a micro-usb cable separately however long you want. be warned though that some universal chargers do not work with our phones as they sense how they are being charged by resistance over the data pins.

[Q] Playstation 3 Controller Support

Hi guys,
So, what do I need to get a PS3 controlled to work on the Xperai Tablet S?
A nice run through would be appreciated!
Thanks.
If its the wired just plug it in, its plug and play an icon will pop up
If wireless you still need to get a wire to plug it in at least once to pair the bluetooth, any old micro usb to usb b wire meshup will do

[Working] HooToo (HT-CT01) Micro USB OTG + 4 port charging hub

In an effort to streamline my adapters & cabling behind my TV, I decided to purchase this hub. What attracted me to this was the combination of OTG + charging/powering capabilities. This hub is perfect for charging/powering usb-connected devices (i.e.-miracast adapter, chromecast, cell phones, tablets, & gaming controllers). Around Christmas time, I picked this up on sale for about $14 with coupon code.
Pros
Charges/powers up to 4 USB devices
OTG works!
Pros
~1ft USB OTG cable
Must use super short provided cable for OTG
Only one port on hub is for OTG
OTG port plugging into the Nexus Player is in the front
My biggest gripe has to be the super short cable provided. When I first purchased it, the cord was too short for my liking (approximately 1 ft). Because of this, I went straight for my micro USB cable I use for my OnePlus. For some reason, that didn't work. I didn't think to try the super short cord. After nearly giving up on it, I gave the short cable a try. Naturally, that cable worked. To make up for the short USB cable, I used an old 3 ft USB extension cord I had lying around. All in all, I am happy with this hub.

docking station that fits the mate 20 pro?

I have a docking station based on USB 3.0.
it has the following inputs:
5 USB 3.0
DVI, VGA, HDMI
AUX
1GB Ethernet
micro and sd card reader
And a single output: USB 3.0 which plugs to my laptop and shares everything.
illustration:

}
(the blue cable is the USB 3.0 male to male from the docking station to my laptop. the black one is type c for charging my laptop)
it even works if I plug it after a USB 3.0 to type c adapter
illustrations:
I tried to plug the huawei the same way, using the adapter but it didn't quite work
the USBs and the aux worked but the monitors and ethernet didn't..
I'm pretty sure its because the windows laptop downloads drivers when you first plug it and the huawei doesn't.
* just to mention, plugging the huawei directly to hdmi adapter (the same golden one from the pictures) and through HDMI cable into the monitor does work and brings the EMUI desktop mode.
I know that there are other docking stations based on USB type c (USB 3.1 or thunderbolt 3), but if I'm buying a new one I wanna make sure it works with my phone as well..
Does anyone know about a docking station that works with the huawei mate 20 pro?
