The Nexus Q is an odd little objet d’art of hardware , fillinga very modest recession rather expensively . It could , however , turn out to be more useful than first thought , because a simple hack seems to bring it to life with the Android catapult , apps and as a result — you guessed it — Netflix .

In the xda - developer forumskornyone has explained how he ’s been able to ulock the gimmick and put in a launcher — CyanogenMod ’s arbalist to be precise . From there , he ’s been capable to utilise an external USB mouse and keyboard to navigate Android and launch apps . It seems to work really quite nicely , spitting out 1080p icon on to the bozo ’s TV .
Perhaps most compelling is the resulting ability to use Netflix on the Q , a feature which seems to work really well if the video he posted is anything to go by . Elsewhere , he explain that Angry Birds , Google + and a bunch of other apps work perfectly from the off , and he was also capable to get a browser app up and running .
Much of this is made possible by the comprehension of the USB larboard on the Q , and Google was enthusiastic to see what developers could do with the twist when it was launched . It look like the globe may yet turn out to be a rather neat little piece of kit . If you have one and are interested in modding it yourself , kornyone hasposted direction here .
