On Christmas I was helping setup a new Bell S III and wanted to connect a thumbdrive via OTG but the phone would not recognize it. To troubleshoot I connected it to another persons Telus S III that I had previously successfully used OTG on and it didn't work either. The only common thing among them was they had been updated to JB since I used it successfully.
I tested the cable on my S II and it still worked.
Both S3's are stock and staying that way.
Cable is good and has worked on the Telus S III back when it was on 4.0.x
USB-OTG for use with USB DAC's works great for me.
JB 4.1.1 Ultimatum ROM.

GN still new, give it couple more months and there will be more infor about it.
I have tethered via USB wire on mine with stock ROM. It's ITL41F with 3.0.1 kernel. You need the RNDIS driver on your computer.
I have wired and wireless tethering working. Using Gummynex 0.3.0 with Lean kernel 1.1. I do have SDK installed on my machine and when rooting I did install Samsung drivers from 2 different locations. When I turned on wired tether in Settings my Win7 pc said "installing new hardware" and then it installed successfully. Don't know if it installed successfully because I had all that crap installed prior or if the OS and phone already had the drivers built in. None the less, it works with that ROM.
Im using CM10 rom for my att gs3 now, but when i try to connect with my DAC, it doesnt work. However when i try it on the stock TouchWiz rom it works. So im wondering if theres any driver for the USB port??? Or some other driver that can make it works.
First of all, let me start by saying this, my note 2 i317 or my previous GS3 i747 never successfully connected to my macbook pro running mountain lion. On my ATT S3, i have tried stock TW and other versions, CM and AOKP, no luck. And on my ATT Note 2, I have tried stock TW, and the other TW versions like Clean rom, Jedi and Skynote, CM builds and JellyBam (not xda supported), and still no luck. And yes i do have Android File Transfer installed on my mac.
Now this is where it gets interesting.
My friend's international S3 i9300 connected successfully, compared to a few ATT s3 and a verizon s3 that I have tried with no luck. Weird
And now that I flashed Beanstalk and also Liquidsmooth and now my model has changed to N7105 on the build, it successfully connects. Weird. So once the build changes from i317 to n7105, it connects?
This might just be a coincidence or just Apple not wanting us to buy android phones sold in the US.. Lmao.. just my 2 cents..
I would like to know your experience with connecting your note 2 to mac
As long as the device is unlocked, I've had no problems connecting my i317 to my Mac Pro with Android File Transfer. This is using rooted stock and Clean Rom AT&T SE 1.5/2.0.
You can also use the S3 UMS file transfer program. It give you disk access to your SD card. AFT can be used on a mac as noted above as well
I have a 64gig otg cruzer and it works fine on my tmo note 4 and any other devices. After update on my complete stock m8 it says that otg is damaged when I insert it. I know the drive is good and everything else in rom is good. Can anyone who has a otg and stock rom verify that it works and it's not an issue on my part or any info on possible bug, thanks.
First things first... I've never had root or flashed. I've done research but can't seem to take all the information in correctly and scared of bricking. I've found guides but second guess myself on if it's the right way for this particular phone. I've read about flashing with odin and also read you can flash without a computer. I actually could care less about flashing but the only reason I want to isnbecause I bought my girlfriend a tmo s4 and updated the software to 4.4.4 and now the MHL and hotspot don't work. Now I just want to flash back to a previous android version that mhl and hotspot work on. No custom ROM just 100% stock android. I've read about custom recovery to do this also. Unless theirs a stock lollipop out for this phone I can flash to with working mhl and hotspot I'll do that. Can someone please help or guide me to the right direction? I'm not computer or phone newb just a newb to all the rooting and flashing. I'm just the type of person who needs good assistance on things like this. Thanks
MHL works for me on 4.4.4, can't say about hotspot because I don't use it. Did you try to factory reset?
Sorry, but you will only be able to flash back with a custom rom, but there are some near stock Roms. If you still want to go ahead with it, I can give you more details

So MHL works for you? Do you have galaxy s4 m919? Mhl works on my note 4 but not s4 now on 4.4.4. What MHL adapter are you using? I'm using the samsung adapter and hotspot gives me hotspot error.
I would back everything up with Samsung Kies and do a factory reset. This could fix your problems.

Maybe I should have detailed things more. When I bought the phone it was not on 4.4.4 and not sure what it was on but it had already been factory reset and everything worked fine. Then when I updated to 4.4.4 hotspot stopped working and MHL. I did a factory reset after the update and cache wipe and still nothing. I have the samsung mhl adapter I bought from bestbuy which works fine with my note 4. I hook my charger to the mhl adapter and hook the mhl adapter to the phone and it doesnt even detect it. It won't even charge it this way.

Yeah M919 and mhl works but I have the cheaper rocketfish cause I get them discounted. I'll give hotspot a shot later

I've seen instances where flashing the firmware again and factory resetting would fix odd issues. Worth a shot anyway
