do you reckon there is any conceivable way that you could pair your controller directly with your phone?
the app is great but if you want to use your controller for your phone and for ps3 it cant be a bit of a ball ache as when you plug it back into your ps3 it pairs back, and then if you wanna use it with your phone again you have to go back and pair it with the pc.
USB OTG host cable
Cool. Does this require any additional software or does it just pair automatically?
Do you think it would make any difference if I got a micro USB to female regular USB (as oppose to mini USB for the controller) as it would then be more versatile and could possibly use with other USB stuff? I could still plug the controller in through the ps3 USB charging cable?

In Sixaxis Controller all you need to do is press the Pair Controller button. If you don't have anything connected "No controller found - please connect it via USB cable" will display in the log.
This is the cable I got. I just plug in the controller to the USB-USB mini cable it came with to the host cable and the host cable to the phone.
Hello all I am having trouble playing my music and charging my phone inside of my car. When I connect my phone to the
Usb port I get a connection error. My Usb port does work because I use other devices on it. I have a 2009 Hyundai sonata if that helps. Anyone have this issue also?

I have the same problem. The problem is that they took out the option to connect as a mass storage device in ICS. The easiest way to connect your phone to your deck is with a 3.5mm aux cable. I got one on EBay for about $1 with free shipping. But you can still charge your phone off the USB port on your deck. I'm sure someone has figured out how to add the mass storage device option back on your phone, but when you can get an aux cable for a dollar I say the less ****ing with my phone I have to do the better.

Thanks. For input. But another reason I want my Usb port to work correctly is because I have a touch screen dash and I like when the songs come up on the screen : p I have been using the 3.5mm for now

basically what I want is a OTG cable that splits off to a regular mini USB as well.
what I'm trying to do is be able to plug my phone into the charger and be able to plug In a ps3 controller into the note 2 as well.
I know I can do this wirelessly because I already do this. But what if I'm gonna charge my ps3 controller and my note 2 at the same time?
the only way I see you can do this is taking USB OTG cable and then connect that to a USB Male to male. Take the one male and connect that to usb to adapter that splits into 2 males. One of those males will go into the charger and the other will connect to a USB mini adapter and connect ps3 controller to the mini adapter.
Sounds very confusing but sure if it work between all that.
What would be easier if they had a micro USB splitter that splits into a USB adapter and a mini USB.

Or is there a micro USB to dual usb adapter so I can use a mouse and keyboard or other things

umm... usb hub... they are everywhere. either that or unified receivers (one receiver that handles both the mouse and the keyboard) or since you are out buying all that crap just go out and buy Bluetooth keyboards and mice

That makes sense haha but here's a question can I use a 4 port usb hub to connect my charger to it to charge phone and connect mouse and keyboard as well as ps3 controller? Or do I need a hub with ac adapter?
Or will it not work? The usb connected to the wall charger connected to an adapter to the hub?

I don't think it will work, the dock achieves this, probably by informing the phone that it's a dock, but the adapters rely on shorting the ground wire to tell the phone it needs to become an usb host. I don't have empirical data but my electronics training tells me the power supply (charger) wouldn't love a short on it's grounding and wouldn't charge the phone...also when going into usb otg mode the phone supplies power, so the charger would see this as a short or an over current situation and not charge.

so this wont work i take it? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q8UAWY/ref=gno_cart_title_1
because both mouse and keyboard would be using through Bluetooth adapter. i already use the mouse and it works through the regular Samsung otg cable.
Can that just work off from the Note 2's Power Supply?
it can only power 1 device, and barely. it outputs around 300mA which is enough for a usb stick, a mouse, a keyboard, or a controller, but not for external hard drives nor other phones your usb hub would have to be powered our else you may suffer reliability and connection problems with your keyboard mouse and controller. basically if you pressed a button on all three the phone would lose them all momentarily

Mini to micro isn't going to help me that only solves ps3 controller. But I already have that down with the otg cable or wirelessly. I want a cable like that has a micro to the usb adapter(otg) that also splits into a usb male. Or a micro to dual usb adapter.
Or to do all at once a powered hub like the other guy had mention

1 thing is that it's 100 dollars. second thing is basically I can't put in horizontal mode if I want to use a keyboard and mouse and browse the Internet I don't want to browse it straight up and down. not to mention if I want to play games as well if I'm using ps3 controller to charge it at the same time I can't do that. who wants to play games tilting their head to watch because of the fact that the phone is mounted vertically instead of horizontally.
I mean I don't understand why it so hard to find a micro USB to a dual USB adapters I mean that shouldn't be that hard to make haha. with that I can use a keyboard and mouse using Unifying receiver. and then the other USB adapter can go straight to the ps3 controller.
So it would be called micro usb male to dual usb female

here's what I don't understand if I take that USB hub connect it to the adapter that I have, and have the USB Bluetooth and keyboard bluetooth in there at the same time, I shouldn't have issues because if im browsing the internet I'm not going to be typing keys on the keyboard and moving the mouse at the same time. so in theory I can move the mouse around Lets say go to the address bar stop using the mouse and go to the keyboard and start typing on the keyboard. so basically I will only be using 1 port at a time. instead of moving the mouse and typing keys at the same time I won't be doing something like that just be ridiculous haha.
so can I use that Belkin USB 4 port and just basically use the two USB Bluetooth hooked up to it. so the port will be connected to the OTG cable. if this makes sense I'll connect the OTG cable to the hub and the 2 Bluetooth to the hub
because if I honestly wanted if I wanted to play video games like grand theft auto I can use the keyboard to type cheats and stuff. use the keyboard through the OTG cable. and connect my ps3 controller wirelessly.

wowowow, no, keyboard, mice and ps3 will only be afected if they are wiered or rf. bluetooth devices wont interfere with each other, you can have a ton of devices on bluetooth and not even need the usb otg... you dont need a buetooth adapter for this, phone, it comes with bluetooth, so any bluetooth item should work with the phone while it's charging without needing the usb otg cable at all. ps3 controllers are bluetooth by default. you dont need to plug them to the phone.
I flashed the jedi x12 rom which came with SaberKernel_16 kernel and hdmi worked (though cropped a little at top and bottom) but no sound on tv nor usb ports recognize my usb memory stick, mouse, nor keyboard.
Flashed SaberKernel_17 kernel and sound now plays on tv but still no usb support.
Also smart dock line out doesn't seem to work.
Tried flashing Perseus-alpha34.2-t889-CWM.zip but same result.
Anyone able to get usb ports working?
Smart dock model EDD-S20JWE from crackberry.com.
I tried using the charger that came with the phone and now the usb ports are recognized. Mouse, keyboard and usb sticks are recognized. The line out still doesn't seem to work when I hook it up to my stereo or headphones.
I tried using the charger that came with the dock again and the usb ports still work. So I'm still not 100% sure what the issue was...

Yup it seems the charger that came with the dock doesn't output enough power. The smart dock works great with my HP TouchPad charger.
I'm getting a replacement and will return the smart dock with the bad power adapter.
Does the OGP have the capability of feeding audio out the usb port? Thinking of getting the ibolt xprodock that includes a cable that uses the micro usb on the device and splits it out at the other end into power on the usb and stereo on a 3.5mm jack. otherwise I'll have to uses both the usb and an extra audio cable

Yes. Try the USB Audio Recorder app.
Weww...never think of it. I guess I should also give it a try

USB audio does work out of the box. I use it every day. USB Recorder Pro is only needed for playing back high res audio at native rates.
