80 G9 + USB Keyboard

Hi,
I'm trying to use a USB Keyboard with my Archos 80 G9.
First of all, I did the Softwareupdate ( 3.2.80 ) but no Keyboard or other USB Device (USB Stick, Mouse) worked. I'm Using the USB Port at the back ( the one for 3G Stick ).
So I flased the "old" Firmware (3.2.79). After this USB Sticks work fine. But still no Support for the Keyboard.
Did I did something wrong (3G is on)
Does it work with you guys? If yes what Firmware do you use?
Thanks a lot and best regards

Try using USB hub, it's possible that tablet doesn't use hardware that declares more power usage than USB port can give (all USB devices declare max current draw during the handshake)

You need an Micro-USB-B-OTG-Adapter.
Try www.adaptare-shop.de and search for OTG (or amazon etc.)

Rear USB working with mac keyboard
Ok, so what gives? The rear usb works with a mac keyboard......I can even make a cheap leather cover/usb keyboard (ebay special) work IF I plug it into the Apple keyboard. Thoughts? Suggestions? I'm guessing there is something going on with the grounding on the Apple keyboard.

Have you tried turning the 3G stick on under Settings?
I believe that power to the back USB port is off until the 3G stick is turned on.

3G's USB port seems to work with everything

Hi,
In january/february, i bought a USB keyboard with an USB adaptater to use it with my tablet.
I tried to plug it in the 3G's usb port, it did'nt worked, and because last week I broken it, and I updated my tab to ICS, I tried to plug my keyboard in the 3G port, and it worked !
Maybe it's because of ICS ?
Also, my keyboard has also an usb hub, it works too !

Mine seemed to work from the the start with Rom version: 3.2.69 and that's on 2 different G9 101, however others result have varied and it seems a bit hit and miss to say exactly what's going on.
I know there are 2 different versions of the 10" G9 - A101S and A101H , I've not dug too deep into it and I'm not 100% and what the differences are.
I think ICS generally improved the Usb Host support/integration which is always welcome.
Now I just need a large bag to transfer all these extra devices for my "portable tablet".

Mine won't see USB drives/camera cards formatted to FAT32. No big deal.
Actually, it did connect with my phone and its 16GB microSD card, so I'm happily mistaken.

From the ICS "firmware" update change log:
Archos 80/101 G9
Firmware changes
Version 4.0.4 - March 8th, 2012
Initial Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 firmware release
MediaCenter Video: support for MKV3D on TV with automatic switch to best 3D mode
MediaCenter Video: allow to disable system notifications in video player
MediaCenter Video: collection of VOB files from DVD are now gathered into a single movie item
MediaCenter Music: integrate Music control panel in Lock Screen
MediaCenter info dialog: allow to edit the name used for performing the Movie and TVShow online search
File Manager: display a notification when file copy continues in background
File Manager: improved drag and drop support
File Manager: new option to prevent indexing of some storage/sdcard folders by multimedia library
Applications: more robust video conferencing support (Google talk, Skype etc.)
USB file transfer: a samba server is now activated on the tablet when using USB network tethering for easier file transfer on non Windows based hosts [Samba for "non Windows"??? Something bass-ackwards about that ...]
Archos widgets: new USB network tether widget [Anyone know if this means it will tether off a phone this way ala older Archos models like the 5 or 43 , or is this meant to "share" its internet connection (however it would obtain it, even if not "3G-enabled" - which seems useless)]
External Keyboard: french layout has been expanded to handle AtlGr keys for special symbols
Accessories: Xbox gamepad support
Maybe I shoulda hung on to the new 80 I bought a week ago, and returned after trying it out for a few days. The inability to get the back/3G USB port and MTP tools to work was a big factor in my return decision (along with no network tether option as the 5 and 43 had, and the reality check on the initial Staples web page claiming 1GB RAM - hope springs eternal...)
FWIW,
R

@rokkywoof I think that it's for the micro usb port, because this oen is meant to be an OTG micro usb port, and the original usb port is just for the 3G, but maybe they failed and applied the stuff to the 3G's port?
@Telyx/trevd wow that's strange !
I saw that the A80S (A101S) are the archos with flash memory (8 or 16gb), and the A80H/A101H are the archos with the Hard drive (H for Hard drive )

Is this true? This is the main reason why I was planning on getting this tablet this week because it is (or so I thought) that would have been able to transfer raw files from my CF cards to the internal hd, and backed up on an external HD. I shoot about 300gig a week while on the road.

It works fine... just have to turn on the "3G Stick" port, then wait a moment before plugging the camera, phone, thumb drive, card reader, etc. in. One camera connects like a thumb drive (mount the "drive" manually and open the folder in the file explorer), the other launches the Gallery app to allow me to import pictures.

3G's USB seems to work with nearly Everything
Hi @ll,
I also tried to get USB devices to work, no problem with USB-Sticks, but USB-HDD's (selfpowered) seem not to Work (neither on Stock image nor on Cyanogenmod). The HDD starts turning but Android doesn't mount it. Can someone give me some pointers?
My Specs:
Archos G9 80 Turbo HDD with an USB-HDD (USB 3.0 (should be backwards compatible)) by Toshiba
Thanks

I would bet the tablet is not able to supply enough power to actually start the USB HD up.
Remember that usb port was designed to be used with Archos' 3G cell stick and really wasn't meant to be hooked up to other things.

If the port is enabled, there is allways power for the hdd, also for a stick a mouse. But some keybords may not work (I don't figure it out).
The app USB OTG Helper will help to mount the hdd/stick.

I used a friends powered usb hub (dlink dub-h7) and was able to use both my keyboard and mouse with my tablet unfortunately my usb thumb drives dont work when attached to the usb hub however they do work when attached to the hub I didnt have my powered usb hard drive with me to test
Powered Hub

Problem with MHL / HDMI cable

Hi, I just bought a MHL cable but it doesn't work, let me explain:
after connecting everything needed (phone to the adapter, HDMI from TV to adapter, charger to adapter) the TV shows an error that is missing signal.
When I connect the phone, it turns the screen horizontal, but nothing happens on the TV.
If it could help, I mount the last version of Resurrection Remix Rom...
Maybe, should I do something from the phone to start the video/audio transmission?
Any ideas? Thank you in advance

i know thats in Resurretion Remix have an application called TvOut....
but try to read in mhl manual for the steps to work, but i thing its just plug n play

MHL works only on stock ROMs.

thank you!I found out that the tvout process is not yet supported for the jelly beal versions of resurrection remix but I flashed back the last ICS version (2.6.1 RR) and everything is working now!

Here's my issue with MHL adapter:
It works well if I connects directly to my TV. But the TV sound sucks so I tried to connect to my home theatre system (which has Audio Return channel + 2 hdmi inputs). But what happens is that it's doing connected/disconnected literally every second.
Is there a solution for this?

thank you friend

OTG USB Audio with Wireless Stereo Headset PS3

Hello xda,
I have an GNEX and i planning to buy an OTG Cable if this works:
I have the PS3 Wireless Stereo Headset and i want to connect it with my Gnex via the USB Stick -> OTG -> Galaxy Nexus to hear music !
The Question is: Will this work and if not: why?
a lots of weird greets,
RainbowSix

push ..
Not possible?

Sorry, no sound comes from the ps3 headphones. The dongle lights up, and the headphones connect, but it does not appear to be compatible with the audio over Bluetooth protocol introduced in JB.

I have the headset below:
h t t p : / / w w w .100gamesinfo.com.br/ecommerce_site/arquivos8285/arquivos/1331667147_1.jpg
The output works on galaxy note 10.1 / galaxy note 2 (Jelly bean - 4.1.2) with OTG cable.
Sometimes it works when i plug directly in the device, but sometimes i need a powered hub.
But it doesn't work with my MK802 iiis device (Jelly bean 4.1.1).
I don't know if this is related to the device or to the android version.
I couldn't make the mic work in any device.

A year later and still no different.
I used to have this working on my Note 3 using Xnote, Am sure it would of been on JB
Now on KK and does not work, the Dongle and Headset sync together. But no Audio via USB.
Maybe the Kernel has changed and no longer compatible, as it natively works on linux.
Am not familiar with Kernels, maybe someone with a little more experience could add some more detail to it.

Google's "Ethernet Adapter for Chromecast"

Has anyone tried to use Google's "Ethernet Adapter for Chromecast" (combined power and OTG Ethernet adapter, 2 meters of cable, Realtek R8152 chipset)?

Sure the Kernel has to support USB Host Mode + External Power at the same time, like Timur's USB host kernel and others do.
But maybe a driver is missing?
the Chromecast kernel includes only one driver (asix.ko / USB_NET_AX8817X), but that supports a large family of ASIX parts (AX88xxx), and is very common today. if you search for "USB AX88179" in Amazon/Newegg/Google/wherever, you should be able to locate something cheap.

So, it seems this has been added to LineageOS on a device-by-device basis: https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8996/+/253772
Double-checking the MAC address owner confirms this is indeed a Realtek chip (not ASIX): https://aruljohn.com/mac/00E04C
