The WiFi receiver is much too weak in my Archos 80 G9 Turbo.
I wonder is it possible to plug an external WiFi receiver via USB.
Thanks for the replies.
Propably no, because it would require drivers, and it is very small change that they are build-in for your receiver.

The system would have to recognize the USB antenna as a second network device and therefore need drivers.

My brand-new v70 has got a USB port to connect for example a USB stick. Unfortunatly the desire is not recognized. It just charges. Any ideas how to change this?

You have to connect the phone using Mass Storage mode. Or use the bluetooth function of the car (if available).

Bluetooth doesn't work, unfortunatly.
Now that I am using a proper data usb cable, the Desire is recognized but the data can't be read (error message on Volvo display). When I connect a usb stick it states "Read" for a while then I have all my mp3 folders.
When I connect my desire it states "Read" for about 30 seconds then I get the Error "Can't be read". Any ideas?
I have three same issue with my alpine deck. I don't think there is a work around. I think you need drivers for the phone as it isn't a generic mass storage device.

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)

the 3g usb working with dongle 3G and usn key only
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.
Don.
Well I've been searching for a while trying to connect the S3 as a laptop using MHL+USB OTG, but seems it is not possible or simply hard enough to consider other options. Several options have been considered:
1- Using BT keyboard/mouse is not always suitable since most of us use 2.4Ghz USB keyboard/mouse and it does not consider connecting HDD or other stuff.
2- I found an application that allows you to use your keyboard/mouse connected to your PC to control the phone, "takecontrol", take a look here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...NvbS5kcm9pZGNvbnRyb2wudGFrZWNvbnRyb2xsaXRlIl0.
Using this app you could also share an HDD connected to that PC solving one of the previous problem BT has.
But this configuration forces you to have your computer switched on... a bit useless if what you want is to connect the S3 as a PC instead of using an actual one.
3- After this I thought of using a wifi USB HUB, but hey! most of routers have USB ports, so why don't we use them instead of buying a new equipment? Then I realised it should work fine for sharing contents from a USB HDD but for USB wireless mouse/keyboard...
(those of you who have a BT mouse/keyboard but don't know how to connect the USB HDD to get "full" PC experience with the S3/S2/Note..., maybe it's still interesting this option)
So my question is if it is possible to connect a USB wireless mouse/keyboard plugging it to a wifi USB HUB. Maybe with an android app? what do you think guys?
I'm still thinkin about this.
Would be possible to use a wireless USB Hub, via wifi or BT?

Hi,
I just bought an adaptor cable for my n8010 to allow me to connect flash drives and other usb devices. However, every usb device that I have connected (a couple of flash drives and a usb keyboard) seems to have the same issue. Basically, I connect the device and it will continously connect and then a few seconds later disconnect the device. This just keeps looping until I physically disconnect the device.
With the usb keyboard I find that I can actually use the device while it says it is connected. However, I dont seem able to see the usb drives mounted anywhere.
Has anyone managed to get a flash pen and keyboard working using an adaptor cable?
Im using Revolution HD 4.1 if that makes any difference.

Try turning your note off completely, plug in the usb stick and turn on. I had the same problem. In the boot process the note discovered the device and now works fine. After the initial boot with the usb stick it appears to remember it and shows up automatically when I plug it in.

You sir are a GOD AMONG MEN! Ive had my device since Sept 2012 and havent been able to get a USB to work with it....Thanks for the solution, no more having to use FTP or Bluetooth (online solutions) or deal with removing SD cards to Xsfer data.

This seems to be the case for all accessories that use the 30 pin data connecter. I have tried 3 different usb adapters as well as the Samsung keyboard dock. None have any instructions indicating you have to restart the Note but that is what works.
ENJOY!

Is it possible to run a Internet USB Dongle with the original adapter, or with any OTG cable?
I need to have internet connection outside my house, and using an USB Dongle is my only option.
Best regards

I don't believe that's possible; however, you should be able to use your smartphone as a hotspot unless it's prohibited by your mobile provider.
Is there a way to get midi input recognized on our phones? On my pc I use the rock band 3 keytar connected via a midi to usb adapter and I can do midi playback.
Is there a way to do this on our phones via an otg cable?

it works beautifully and way easier than I expected.
connected my otg cable and the phone said usb connector connected (since when is this a thing!?), plugged in the midi-usb adapter to the otg cable and right away it prompted me to open with the software I linked above and another midi software I had installed.
and bam, it was working. I messed around a bit to find the better settings for my keytar, but this thing works. over Bluetooth and with the headphone plug. there's a little bit of lag over Bluetooth but for my uses I wanted it straight to the speaker so i'm using the stereo cable. now I don't need a pc to get sound out of the keytar.
mark this as one more day i'm amazed at what my phone can do.
by the way, it functions as a synth using the software I mentioned above, so I can play harpsichord, organ, piano, etc. and the sound keeps on playing even with the screen off.
happy camper = me.

Looks like you had some luck... Wondering if you can help me?
I am trying to make my Android, Huawei p20 Pro, accept a MIDI signal via USB too.
I have an OTG adapter, and have tested 2 OTG adapters and 2 cords.
All work into my PC (even via an USB type-C to standard USB adaptor )
The issue seems to be that I cannot select the USB in type to be MIDI.
I have also experienced that on another Samsung Galaxy S10
I have tried opening developer settings and changing the setting "Disable USB Audio Routing" ON as per https://help.joytunes.com/en/articles/2636638-troubleshoot-midi-on-your-android-device
I have tried using it with 3 apps that accept MIDI.
Simple Piano by Joy Tunes, FlowKey and USB MIDI Monitor
Any ideas?
Environment
Huawei p20 Pro
Model: CLT-L29
Build: 9.1.0.381 (C782E11R1P11)
