Yes, couple of weeks ago I found an article about that. Told, with an USB-OTG (on the go) adapter, the right camera and an android Asus tablet next to an app that would be possible. It didn't tell which app, though - there are gazillions around if I search for "USB OTG Asus Nikon".

Yesterday my colleague showed me his Samsung tablet with an app and this adapter getting LV from a D7000. D810 struggled a bit. He thinks it's the USB 2.0 adapter vs. the USB 3.0 output, but I don't think so. Can ask him which app he uses, but it worked very well and had on his D7000 more functions than CamRanger.
I use the CamRanger solution with an iPad, bloody expensive and although WLAN, (too) many cables are involved. So, I'm already on the edge to buy one of these crappy Android plastic things and an USB OTG cable (there are also plug-socket connectors) to get LiveView in the field.
Just saw in Google playstore, there's even Helicon remote available - focus stacking in the field without laptop, yeah! Maybe it even works...
