Using the volume wheel



A clever hacker has managed to play a pong-like game just using the volume wheel of the new Nexus Q hacked device

When the media streaming capable Nexus Q device was introduced, it took less than 24h to the hackers to rip it off and root it with no mercy. Now, a curious new pong-like App allows to play the game using the built-in volume wheel.

BrickSimple managed to hack the Q for Pong playback, using the spinning top (read: volume wheel) to move the lower bar in the game. We'll let you get right to the action; the video's embedded after the break, and the code snippet necessary to duplicate it is there in the source below.
Check the video below.
