OTG & charge - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
For the Nexus 7 there is a solution for USB OTG & Charging. Here:
http://mehrvarz.github.io/usb-host-mode-power-management-nexus7/
Can this be archived on the lg g pad?
Thanks!

I'd also like to know this. (I have the GP edition)

USB / SD Connection Kit Compatibility

Does anyone know if the Galaxy 10.1 Tab USB connection kit is compatible with the Galaxy Note 10.1? Has anyone discovered any USB kits that are confirmed to work with the Galaxy Note 10.1?
Yes, it is. I have mine to test it.

[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] USB OTG possibility?

I guys, maybe I'll buy LG Optimus G for xmas. The only lack of this phone, imho, is the missing SD card slot. It won't be a lack if this phone supported OTG, but, as lot of us know, microusb on this phone doesn't provide 5V output, so it's impossibile to connect other usb devices to OG.
5V output is not the only requirement to make USB OTG work, but 5V usb power can be easily supplied with a Y cable with one end connected to a power source (computer or phone charger itself or external emergency batteries). OTG needs also compatibile soc (snapdragon s4 pro is compatible for sure), kernel support (it should be enough to connect devices, such as usb gamepads) and software support (for example to read what's on a usb stick). Software support is easier than 5V, lot of free and well know softwares can be found on googleplay. So only kernel support is the last enemy. I'm not able to compile kernels or other stuff like this, but, as I saw for other devices (even mid-range like some samsungs with novathor chipset) or for OG's almost-twin Nexus 4 which has the same situation of OG, kernel support can be easily integrated by people with some skills in android programming.... So, is there anyone who can try to add kernel support?

I got that working 3-4 months ago.
There's a kernel from Houstonn's AOSP 4.4 kiktkat ROM.
Try that, I used OTG for like 1 month And then moved to stock again.

Have you tried slim port adapter? My g4 wont be here for about a week to test.
Add: After googling what the Lg G3 had, which was a slimport I checked LG's website. It says it uses "HDMI SlimPort(4K)".
http://www.lg.com/uk/mobile-phones/g4/specifications.jsp
Has anyone picked up a slimport adapter for the g4? Looking for one that is guaranteed to work.

I have a slimport adapter, but I am not even seeing where the setting is... Does anyone know?

What setting are you looking for?
I tried my slimport (not MHL) adapter and it worked the same way as for the G2. Screen mirroring on the TV. When playing videos using the built in video app they only play on the TV.
Link to it?

Me? Here.
Alright, pulled my Slimport Adapter out of my Pioneer App Radio and it doesn't work with my TV either. This same adapter worked with my Nexus 4.
All LG Flagship are enabled with Slim-Port - Connecting Technology.
LG G4 is in list of the official slim-port Supported Devices here: www.slimportconnect.com/slimport-supported-devices/.

Recommend this from Amazon.com and also found a tutorial video at YouTube.com here.
Frigidazzi you said your phone would be there in about a week, that was 4 months ago? This can't be that hard I am still screen mirroring from my s3 as my s5 was stolen but my g4 does not work with this adapter or any of the other 4 that I have tried. This can't be this difficult if I don't accomplish something this week I will use my 14 day option and return this phone. Anyone have any answers?
I have a taiwan 815 and i bought a combo slimport adapter which has a card reader and USB OTG it works fine

You might need a 5 pin to 11 pin adapter. Your mhl cable might be a 1.0 which is older tech
Lg4 mhl

Lg4 does support mhl. It requires a slimport MHL. I just bought an Accell slimport Mhl. Works perfect. It took a few trys before I found this. Also, Lg4 supports 4K.
Is MHL micro usb to hdmi compatible with the LG G4 and LG G tab?

Accessories OnePlus 9 Pro Splitter (Audio and Charging adapter)

Hello,
I have been looking for a splitter adapter for my OP 9 Pro. So far out of 3 different adapters i have bought, none of them worked. Even when i turned OTA Storage ON. Does anybody know any that works with OP 9 Pro so i can charge and use headphones at once please?
I'll need to test the one I used on my 7 Pro. I bought a streaming adapter for my BMW that uses the MOST bus so I tossed the splitters on a drawer.
