Right now I have the official USB adapter that plugs into the 30-pin port. I'm wondering if I can plug in an MHL adapter with a micro USB to full size USB adapter into the Samsung USB adapter and get any kind of video output?

According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-definition_Link) you should be able to, as the SGT (does that include the 10.1?) is mentioned to support it, and using the official USB device (I myself have the official 2-piece set, with SD-card reader and micro-sd converter included) you should get the desired results
Doesnt the usb converter include the OTG bit though, so its not a straight 30 pin to usb convertor. Might not produce any results with the hdmi plugged into it?

I bought the ethernet usb adapter and a m-usb to usb-a female and the usb ethernet lights up and the phone says usb device connected. I don't know where to find the ethernet option...
Title says it all, has anyone tried this?
From what I've read (and the other threads on this topic) - no it can't be done.
It can't be done my friend
I got it to work

I used the following and plugged into my TV usb port and had ethernet (verfied with WIFI shut off) and it was charging.
USB 2.0 Ethernet adapter - <amazon.com/gp/product/B003VSTDFG>
OTG with power - <amazon.com/gp/product/B00C452XFO/>
Yup, this now works great for me too! :good:
I bought the Ethernet adapter Nvidia Recommends (same as browncoatdave's)

And just whatever Y cable could find that didn't look uber cheap.

1) 3 Port USB Hub
2) Plugable USB 2.0 to 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Wired Network Adapter
3) Micro USB Host OTG Cable with Micro USB Power
4) Smart Touch Mini USB TouchPad Keyboard
5) Full Size trackball mouse
6) Charging cord
I am charging the battery with ethernet, keyboard and mouse plugged in.
No Problem. But this is also after the kitkat update which added the charging while ethernet is plugged in.

Did you plug all the devices in a particular order? I noticed that if I plug in my charger AFTER I plug in the OTG cable into the shield, then it is not charging. But when I plug in the charger into the OTG cable and then plug it into shield, it is charging.
Is your hub powered? What exact model is it? I am asking because I have very similar setup to yours but the shield does not detect USB devices connected to the hub - it's this one: http: // esperanza . pl/esperanza-usb-2-0-hub-4-porty-ea116,182,437.html
I can connect one usb device directly to OTG cable and it works, but when I connect a hub, it no longer works.
There is a cheap way to do this if you have the soldering skills, and are willing to try it.
Get a cheap USB "Travel" hub.
Open it up, and replace the Upstream USB cable with an OTG cable (A scrap Micro-USB cable may or may not work. The connector must be Properly wired for OTG).
Remove the main power diode in the USB hub, and solder jumper the 2 pads where it was. A Multimeter in continuity mode can help you find the right component, but it takes some experience. There usually is not much in a cheap travel hub, so I can usually find them just by looking, but like I say, only try this if you have the experience, and you know what you are looking for.
Power the hub through it's 5V power jack (if it has one), or you can add a power only micro-USB socket. (Only connect the (+) and (-) power pins, do not connect the data lines. Connect it to any one of the Full size USB port's power pins. Observe polarity.)
Voila! You now have 4 Full size USB ports, it will charge your device, and provide power (Up to the rated power of the AC adapter) for your USB devices.
I did this years ago in the Nokia 770 days. It was one of the first consumer devices that supported USB OTG. Article still exists here:
http://www.linuxslate.org/N770DockingStation.html (Scroll down to the "Electronic Components" Section)
Would this work?
Would this: SODIAL(R) Micro USB Host OTG Cable with Micro USB Power plus this: Anker® Unibody 3-Port USB 3.0 and Ethernet Hub
Give me the ability to charge tablet, use Ethernet and additionally connect USB mouse and keyboard, and possibly charge Nvidia Game Controller?
Or would it just be a waste of time and money
Nexus 5x 7.1.1 rooted.
OTG works when mounting a flash drive, using a USB-C -> female USB A adapter.
If I plug in a USB LTE dongle, it doesn't power on. I've tried the above adapter, and a standard micro-USB OTG cable connected to a micro-USB -> USB-C adapter, without success. The dongle works with an OTG cable on a Galaxy S4, and on computers.
USB-C can manage OTG via negotiation between the phone and peripheral; it doesn't rely on the ID pin to be shorted. I'm guessing the dongle doesn't have the software to talk to USB-C devices.
Has anyone else had issues with peripherals (not flash cards) connecting via OTG?
For reference, the dongle is a Huawei 397u-53 4G LTE adapter.
I would like to know if using a microusb adapter i can charge and share my mobile data trough usb simultaneously ?
Thx in advance for reply
What type of microusb adapter?
USB tethering to a PC already chargers the phone while it's connected.

The idea is:
- a microusb cable witch ends in two parts,a female usb and a female microusb
- ill plug the power in female microusb and then a usb to ethernet adapter in the female usb
- plug the ethernet in ps4
