Yes, this keyboard was designed for the original Nexus 7 (2012 version). You don't need a USB OTG cable, since it uses bluetooth to connect to your tablet.

It works with my Nexus 7 (2013 version) out of the box. The 2012 version apparently does not come with the wireless charging built in.

I would ask that question of tech support for Nexus Media Importer (NMI) in the Google Play Store. It certainly works with my (2012) "7".Good luck!

I have a Nexus 7 and Samsung Galaxy. This cable works fine with both. I have used it with mouse, keyboard, external HD, smart card reader, and thumb drive.

Ignore the other answers here. While I don't own this model, it should work would with all OTG (On The Go) supporting devices. Caveats: nexus 7.2 (2013) supports OTG, whereas 7.1 (2012) does not IIRC. That said: One does NOT receive a required App with the Nexus (5 or 7.2) so one needs to Google and install (purchase) a little app to transfer files -- there are several to choose from.

Yes, I have tested it with a few tablets and it works, ASUS Nexus 7, and Proscan 7 inch tablets. You need an OTG adapter and turn off wifi. The proscan is better since you have a separate power connector so you can charge it while using the ethernet adapter. The Proscan also lets you set a Static IP address.

Works only with new 2013 nexus 7. The older one does not support any external displays.

Thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, this is not compatible with the nexus 7.

I use it to connect the Nexus 7 to a SD card to USB adapter (e.g. http://goo.gl/xEvk9B), so I can edit the high quality pics from my camera in my tablet (and, eventually, upload from here to any place). You can buy the SANOXY Micro USB Host Mode OTG Cable (http://goo.gl/jC6duj), which is cheaper than the IVSO. It is working with my Nexus.

I would suspect that it would work with any device with a micro USB connection. I only own the Asus Nexus 7 and it works fine. You may need a 3rd party file handler, such as Astro File manager or Antek Explorer.

Yes, it will work with the 2012 nexus 7 and all the buttons function very well.

judging from the images on the asus website, the location of the micro usb port, top of memo pad, bottom on the nexus 7, would indicate that it does not work, but i don't own the memo pad, so i can only judge from those images and compare to the nexus 7. personally, i wouldn't take the chance ordering one if i wasn't 100% sure it works. but if it does work, please feel free to post here

Yes this works fine with the nexus 7. I rally like how it holds the tablet in place so you can watch something or play games. It also is agreat hard cover for the tablet. I normally ddon't use the keyboard much since it is small but again yes it works.

The cable did not work on my Nexus 7 either. You may be correct... the tablet may need to be rooted. Unfortunately, I'm not smart enough to know how to do that. Sorry.

My Google Nexus table is rooted and I downloaded Stickmount from the App Store. I can plug in an external USB hard drive, (USB "stick" drive) and view or copy files to my tablet. Here is a link to explain the rooting. http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-root-your-google-nexus-7/ I also use the OTG cable to plug in a USB keyboard for my Office app.

Yes-if your question is will it work for the Nexus 7 2012 edition. Works fine. I even have the OEM Nexus 7 2012 rubber case and it works with the case on-w/a little alteration of the case and the larger base unit w/the small base insert taken out.
