[Q] Google Cardboard for Nexus 6? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know of a Google Cardboard kit or template that would work with the Nexus 6? I read that the template from Google is too small for it and the bigger versions you can buy online are too small for it as well, and that they both cause a double vision effect. Does anyone know of any form Google Cardboard that would work, or can someone make a template that would work with the Nexus 6?

If they have dimensions listed why not just scale it up for the Nexus?

These are the bigger versions of the original version:

http://www.amazon.com/SeresRoad®-VERSION-Assembled-Cardboard-Cellphones--perfect/dp/B00NV083RS
There are also some hard plastic ones that claim to be compatible to phones from 4" to 7“. Just search for google cardboard 7".

The first link is confirmed not to work with the Nexus 6, it causes a double vision. The second link is supposed to work but unfortunately I live in Canada and it doesn't ship to me and I can't find a similar thing on Amazon.ca

Just wanna report that I bought the large one from Unofficial Cardboard and it work well with our phone.

I don't have enough posts to post links but "Google iamcardbord Nexus 6". It's a little pricey and it's still in the pre-order phase until the 22nd but it's made for the Nexus 6 and I'm kind of obsessed with VR so...

Check out the Knoxlabs cardboard for Nexus 6
It looks better than the ImCardboard one because the lenses are actually wider so that you have a bigger FOV with the bigger phones

Sigh. Owned once again!

Just received my iamcardboard-- Nexus 6 version. Don't know if they are using the same lenses they use in their smaller kits, but the field of view is pretty weak and there certainly is double vision in many cases. The phone fits well enough, but I'm going to have to do some fiddling to see if I can get any better results.

will try that knoxlab one.

I have never heard of this. What exactly does it do?

Um, Google it?
Serious note, there are a few VR apps in the play store now, its just a cheap entry level into exploring Virtual Reality. I'm going to give it a crack when I can find a Nexus 6 version that doesn't cause double vision. And one cheap enough for delivery to the UK.

I'm really hating these leaks. It ruins the excitement. I'm gonna watch the event knowing everything and have nothing to be excited about since I expected it.
Especially Wireless Charging. Last year, Google did a good job keeping tbw Galaxy Nexus Pretty secretive(at least to me since I never fully saw it clearly. Just the pogo side.

I've never used wireless charging before. Are the charging stations universal? Like I wouldn't have to buy new ones for each new phone I buy in the future? Does this also mean I should buy a couple of the old palm ones while they're still cheap? I for one am really excited for wireless charging.

Hi,
Your LG nexus is fine. The internal hardware is built to resist water and a few other dust particles. The flickering you experienced was only because the water was in the way. However keep your phone away from fire, oil based lotions and dropping. Enjoy your Nexus.

[R.I.P.]Broken Grouper

Damn, i accidentally dropped on to the tile floor and landed on the corner... R.I.P. (2012-2013) my trusty N7. Now i am facing a new problem: a new tablet. I am tempted to buy an ipad as it may partially replace my laptop on certain school days. however the 32gb grouper is only $250 here, also a good buy. what should i do?

Beamed from my Maguro.
You can buy 32gb Groupers for $199 now since most places are lowering them, I guess, in preparation for the new model.
I have a brand new 32gb sitting in a box downstairs. I guess I'll sell both and buy a new one, if its worth it.

maybe you have to answer this;
- how the urgency of your need?
- if you buy Ipad, will it cover all your need?
if i were you i'll take N10 instead Ipad..

Because apple is better. NO. Because here in Australia good android tablets are as hard to find as it is easy to find iPads. There really aren't many choices things like n10 is just to complicated to obtain. That's why, if I am given a CHOICE, I will choose android every time, but here there isn't any choices.

Which iPad? The 4 is hardly a bad tablet-- I was thinking of trading in my iPad 3 (the performance bump from the 3 to the 4 is really quite nice), but ultimately didn't have time to go in today and the promotion is over. Honestly, I like it more than any of my Android tablets because the thing is rock solid no matter what, but I do a lot of my tinkering on my Android tabs so it's at least partially my fault.
I would wait and acquire the nexus 7 second generation.

As you can see on the 'theideasforgifts' website, the picture is of a Taktik case for the iPhone 5. I just bought a few of them on Alibaba (replicas of course), so I'm interested in their quality and accuracy of replication. The metal+plastic+gorilla glass design is intriguing.

I think vantt1 meant that he bought some of the iphone 5 cases on alibaba, not Note 2 cases, but I could be wrong.
If there was a Lunatik case for the Note 2, that would be GREAT! That case is amazing!

I wouldn't consider it a discount, but instead it was because 10 was the lowest I could find. Next was 20 and 100, and there's no way I'd buy 100!
It was quite a good price though I think. It cost about $8 per case and about $4 postage per case, and I ended up paying about $130 for a total of ten cases, which makes each case about $13 including postage.

My Nexus retourned to me from the assistance with Android Key Lime Pie

I am holding a Nexus 5 with a beta test operating system, Android Key Lime Pie. Probably it was the trial for KitKat.
I saw that something similar had already happened to one user MOD EDIT but unlike its my version is a bit different - as you can see from the system information attached - and my nexus is fully functional except for some sporadic bug system. I also have access to some menus of testing and development.
I uploaded a video on Youtube MOD EDIT where you can see the special features of this version of the operating system.
Selling or advertising of selling is prohibited on XDA Forums
EBay? Seriously, come on.

This Android release has never been officially distribuited and is a unique collector's item.
Except some google researcher , there are not any others around.. for this reason it is now for sale on ebay
I think you'll find on ebay that your phone is worth about as much as my phone, GtrCraft's phone, and firemaned's phone.
There's no such thing as rare software. Hell, if you want to, you can make more of them yourself. That's if you find enough (any?) people to make it worthwhile.
Now, if it had the original flappy birds installed...
You may think that even a dollar with a print defect always worth a dollar..
Do you want more information about the operating system and options of the hidden menu?
Seen the same thing with earlier kernels noted to be fake as well.

The thing is, I can flash an engineering build and have exactly what you have. Now if your hardware had something different (more thermal paste, different logo, etc) you might have something but for sure software isn't the same.
Don't sell it on EBay, it's embarrassing.
If you do, I'll flash key lime pie and load flappy birds and undersell you by $1.

You make me laugh because it considered only the technological side of the device without understanding that has a value for some collectors of rarities.
Not sell it because it has an advanced software, I sell it because it has a unique software.

Man alive, I've been looking high and dry for this. No idea why it's not for sale yet in the States. Been wanting this case as much as the Note8 itself.
Ditto. I've had this for my last 2 Sammys (Note7, S8) and will buy this the second it is available. Great case and the keyboard is nice to use on the train.
You can get this right now for $70 on ebay (there's exactly 1 listing of it), but it's a korean model with dual kr/en labeling on the keys.
I wonder if this would "clip on" to other 3rd party cases (i.e. UAG, Spigen, etc..
That is very cool. I've never been good at typing on virtual keyboards. This would be great to have.

Anyone know if Samsung will bring the keyboard cover to North America?
It's on the global site - but no info:

It's on the Korean site for sale though:

I ordered and asked them about Korean. They sent a picture and yes it does have English/Korean. I'd rather not have the English shrunk to accommodate the Korean which is useless for me however it seems to me that it's not coming out here in the USA. I wasn't following the s8 when it came out, was the keyboard case released with it amongst its accessories or did it come later?
Is the keyboard cover heavy? And will it scratch the bottom of the phone a lot?
Looks interesting. Was a huge fan of the hardware keyboard on the HP Pre3.
About this Note 8 keyboard, does it work well if you have put on a tempered glass screen protector?
Also, are you forced to use the case that comes with it, or can you use it with third-party cases of similar thickness?

Based in the reviews I've watched it looks well made not heavy and will not scratch phone. I'll update when I get it.

I just got it and they keys feel great. It will only work with the case it comes with. It won't scratch the screen and probably will work with screen protector. One flaw with Korean is the period is a dollar sign so you have to press and hold for a second and the it's a period. It's not backlit they should at least made it glow in the dark. I'll probably memorize it soon enough. Size wise it is a little smaller then the on screen smallest size Samsung keyboard. Buttons have real nice click and feel. No cursor arrows.
I figured out how to fix the period issue. So working perfect. Definitely could use backlight but hopefully soon will learn to type without looking.

Unfortunately this keyboard layout is QWERTZ, not QWERTY version
I really want this keyboard cover for my Note 8, does anybody have an idea when it will be sold here in the States?
