Enabling USB Ethernet Support? - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

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.

netgear push2tv ptv3000 vs Galaxy Note 2 Smart Dock

Hi,
I am planning to buy netgear push2tv ptv3000 or Samsung galaxy note 2 smart dock. I am totally confused. what i think is
With Netgear we can connect wirelessly and we only require WIDI. Most of High End models in future will have this support. And use any high-end android phone to connect.
but Note II Smart Dock we have a limitation that it needs a 11 Pin USB.
Whether we can be sure that all the models in future (Atleast in near future) that phones will have
only 11 pin usb?
The price-wise, both are relatively same.
Can someone help me make this decision
Anyone has answer to my question? Please... If it is delayed Smart Dock will be out of stock again....

[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?

[Request] (P600) LAN Drivers from NotePro Firmware. .....

Hi Mates! I see, a lot of converts are around here for Note Pro Firmware Apps and Tools for using it on P600. I try out a lot of Hardware adapters and docking stations to find any solution to use Usb and power charging at the same time. And I figure out, that it's really strange, strange with the p600/601 usb Adapter. The Multimedia Dock from Samsung, which was build for Note 2.... works with note 3, but not with the p600..... It doesn't accept it as any docking station, no charging, nothing. The new desktop docking station is accepted from both , note 3 and p600 as a docking station. .... (But don't have any usb). Other adapters with USB and micro USB built in for charging, won't charge. .....
But at last, I try out the Lan to usb adapter from Samsung, built for Note tab pro. And....... It completely works with p600.... charging and usb at the same time. ... strange. .... It have 2 USB ports, a power in, like on note 3 (usb3), and also a RJ45 Lan input. Everything on this adapter works, but if I get a lan cable inside, nothing happens. ...... in another thread I read about the Google nexus, that work with a similar adapter, without any drivers or any app. Just lan cable in, and there is Internet connection. And they wrote, that the lan drivers are already built in from Google to Android. ......
So, why it won't work on the p600? Can anyone check out, that the note pro (all versions) have any drivers or anything else in system, that make it possible to use a lan to usb adapter? Or is it maybe just a failed port in the USB adapter? I don't think so. ....I think, that Samsung have build in an by driver in the firmware of note pro, to understand the RJ45 Ethernet protocol, ipv4 and ipv6......
If you can help, it would be phantastic.....!
Gesendet von meinem SM-P600 mit Tapatalk
Mhhh no one knows something about, or nobody is interested in this. ..... but my English is very bad also, but I hope, the main essence is clear...? The samsung adapter, I wrote about, is build for the note pro series , all tablets. It works completely withe the 10.1 2014 editoon also...completely? Not really completely , cause the Lan input doesnt do anything, if you put a rj45 cable inside.
And Google Nexus seems to have ethernet drivers allready in Android. And nexus have the pure Android inside, so why this drivers are not also in the Samsung Android Firmware?
Or do Samsung it explizit build in to their Pro Models? If yes, then it should he possible to transport it into a 2014 10.1 custom Rom....?
I'm clear, that it isn't sooooo very important for a tablet to have ethernet support, but sometimes , if there is a caboe, that can be used, it would be fine, having stable and fast connection, LAN Connection to the network,faster downloads, connecting ro other devices with ipv4 preferences.......and better vpn connection.....
Or write
So, if someone have a note pro, pls check out the system applications, if there are any files like rj45 driver, ethernet drivers, ore
Hi, much poeple are interseted in! So i do!
It will realy intersting to get a "patch" to get ethernet fonctions like on note pro 12.
Is some one can portable on a rom or other...

Tab 3 with mouse,keyboard and ethernet via USB OTG.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 that I want to use ethernet, mouse and keyboard with to do remote desktop work. Is there anyway I can do this? I see that there's a Samsung USB LAN hub for the Note Pro/Tab Pro line of tablets but I'm wondering if this will work with the Tab 3.
If not i'm wondering if a hub can be connected to the tablet that would then allow the connecting of the usb mouse, keyboard and a usb ethernet adapter. These are the two products I'm currently looking at but im not sure if they are compatible.

I can't post links as yet. They can be easily found with a query in Amazon.

I am sure keyboard and mouse will work on otg cable as long as they got enough power (I have tried it) and for WLAN or Ethernet cables you will need to modded kernel to do it.
More info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705323 (its for p5210 though)

thanks Jack. Im using my older account that I just got access to. It allows me to post link so yeah Im the same as joeldean.I havent gotten a response from that person as yet. I was wondering if you know anyone willing to help me modify a Tab 3 kernel to add ASIX drivers. Based on my research the ASIX ethernet based adapters seem to be most compatible. I would even be willing to pay to get this done.
