[Q] Galaxy Note 2 Live Demo Unit - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!I have a Galaxy Note 2 Live Demo Unit and it has Android 4.1.1.I tried to update it to 4.1.2 with Kies but it said that there isn't any software update for my device.I went at a GSM service,and they said that I have to be careful,because The Normal Note 2's software can brick my device and I have to use a Demo Software.Does anyone know a Demo Version of Android 4.1.2 for Note 2?I'm new on XDA so I don't even know a lot of things...

OTG USB host cable problem
I have two question about Note 2 N7100 demo live.
1. OTG USB host adapter cable lost connection on phone. It sees the phone OTG cable but constantly connects and disconnects immediately and so constantly repeated in a circle. This OTG cable I tried on another Note 2 (not demo) and works great.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem with "conecting-reconecting" OTG host cable.
2. If I make a Skype video call, the person on the other end can not hear me. However, I can hear him well. The problem goes away if I plug my headphones in. Strangely no problem during an audio only call. There are similar issues with Google talk video chat. Did you notice this problem on your unit.
This demo note 2 have stock firmware 4.1.2 and all function (except phone calls and sending SMS) work well.If it is important, I have reclaim the memory from 5 to 16GB with the original pit file.

Enabling USB Ethernet Support?

I just moved to a Samsung S3 and a Samsung Note 8 from the Asus world, and I'm missing the ability to use USB ethernet adapters. Apparently, Samsung removes the drivers from JB and future releases? Has anyone discovered a way to either flash the drivers back in, or do you know if any of the aftermarket roms for the Note 8 include this functionality?
Thanks!
I know what you are saying. I have an Asus tf 300 with a belkin ethernet adapter...didn't use it much though, never tried it on my note 2 smart dock..., hope it works. I think if it works on note 2.. it should work on note 8

Age old solution: root, compile the driver for your kernel, and load it.
Else: buy device with support baked in.
For me, Wi-Fi model on 4.1.2 does not support the dongle from the first gen ASUS Zenbook UX-31.

[Q] SM-T210 Tab 3 7" MHL to HDMI(TV-Out) Capabilities

Hi Guys
I got this SM T210 (wifi only) tab and I'm wondering if this really has a TV-out feature via MHL to HDMI.
It really is not clear for me because some sites says it has but other says it doesn't.
I was wondering if anyone here has the same tab as mine and has gotten this feature working for them.
If it work for you can you please also indicate what model of the cable you are using.
Thanks
The official specs on samsung's site make no mention of HDMI.

Yep, that is why it is really confusing. If you look here at the MHL to HDMI cable here
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/ET-H10FAUWEGUJ-compatible
it clearly says that it is compatible with Galaxy tab 3 7" (Gold brown color w same specs as the white).
and also here on this link
http://www.abt.com/product/71046/Samsung-ETH10FAUWEGUJ.html
if you look at the docs of that cable. it states that this is for all 2013 Galaxy tab 3 devices including the 7" version.
Hopefully somebody has gotten this to work because I really need this feature on my tab.

About MHL (TV Out) capabilities:
http://www.samsungmobilepress.com/2013/06/03/Samsung-Introduces-New-GALAXY-Tab-3-Series-1
suggest you buy a MHL to HDMI adapter to test it. If it works, that will be great. if not, you can return the MHL to HDMI to the vendor.

Hi, I am sorry to tell you the bad news. I asked Samsung online service about your question that whether the micro USB port of tab 3 7.0 supports MHL function via live chat of Samsung.com. They told me that only tab 3 8.0 and tab 3 10.1 features a micro USB port with MHL/HDMI functionality like Samsung Galaxy S4,S3 and Note 2.

Aw... Now I don't know what to do with this tab anymore. I really need the MHL tv out capabilities so when I travel I can make this as my Portable TV box.
Anyways. Thanks for all the help. I guess I'll just sell this and buy another tab.
what if you root it or something? would that work?
you can get this to kinda work by putting a kit Kat rom on it. all kit kat roms have miracast. it's not exactly mhl (wireless instead of wired) but it serves the same function

[Q] tab 3 dsr controller issue

Hi,
I have downloaded DSLR Controller for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 4.1.2 Kernel. I have hooked it up using OTG USB cable to my Canon 600D/T3i camera. Both are compatible according to the website. So why the heck aint it working?
The cables arent cheap ones and the mini USB is the one that came with the camera. When I click the app on my Tab 3 it just says Android device not compatible with Android USB host API.
Im not tech savvy so dont know what this means. It also says a firmware update may fix the issue but I appear to be fully updated.
any ideas?

Note FE GearVR Compatibility?

Now we all know that the GearVR no longer supports the use of the Note 7. But I wonder if Samsung has enable the Note FE to be used with the GearVR Seeing as the Note FE is nothing more than a refurbished Note 7 with a smaller battery.
I tried VR with the Note 7 ported rom last night and none of the software was present and it did nothing when plugged into the headset. Installed apks but no joy. Will keep you posted if I get it working.
Good news. editing build.prop > ro.build.model to "SM-G955V" (model no. for S8+) has stopped crashing of Oculus app.
Manually installing all packages has now allowed me to get into Oculus app Will try with the headset when I get home.
*edit* waiting on OTG fix from rom dev in hope it sorts the recognition.
VR does work on my Note 7 with Hydra without any issues. But change the model to a S7 edge SM-G935F because if you change it to a S8+ the Apps will think you are using a S8+ a 18.5 screen and will stretch the image! this will leave you with a wrong aspect ratio and a headache.
I'm not wondering if the original Note 7 will working with the GearVR. I wanna know if the Note FE running the stock OS will work with the GearVR. It is good to know that the original Note 7 will work with the GearVR running a custom OS
Chieco is right about what I was saying with the aspect ratio. No need to deviate from the way it was done before.
Sorry I didn't read your post properly. I think there will be issues still, like I'm having atm. As it's not supported like the note 7 you will need to root, do the build . prop fix and get the vr setupwizard apk as it won't be on the phone.

That sucks. I would have thought that Samsung would have addressed this when they released the Note FE. Seeing as the Note FE has a different model number and is running on the latest OS version

My guess would be that Oculus/Samsung couldn't be bothered or didn't want to make it easier to get it working on regular notes. This might be why the latest version crashes constantly and won't detect. I'm curious if it still works on hydra or if they patched it to not work on either note7 full stop.
Any News to use gear vr on our Note 7 with FE rom port (on hydraRom, it works...)
