Normal OTG Cables for other smartphones will work on Firephone?

OTG is not supported by the Kernel. The (sad) end.
edit: It's disabled on purpose (ofc.) since Amazon is usually only interested in allowing content coming in from their paid platforms.

It's quite disappointing.. I've asked Amazon support about it and been told that it should be in one of the next updates (probably will never happen). So my other question was about OTG cable for FF sold on and by Amazon (can't find it now). Support guy told me that he can't say if it works or not. I can try to buy it and will see.. Is he kidding? Order cable for about 10 pounds and not sure if it works? Thank you, support team

Micro USB OTG Host Adapter

If anyone is looking for a cheap micro usb otg host adapter to use to attach usb devices (thanks to DooMLord here), I ordered these from DealExtreme a few weeks ago and they just came in. Worked like a charm to mount a usb stick on my Arc. $2.20 with free shipping, no taxes as they marked it as a gift:

Ok looks like it's micro usb wtf is the point of that? That's like adding an extra item that isn't needed
Ok looked a little harder and it seems this adapter is more for those who have the old 5 pin mhl adapter. If this is the case what a waste of money :thumbdown:
Guess I'll be ordering a proper adapter. Ps will the new 11 pin work with the old 5 pin phones? Otherwise it might be better to get the old mhl adapter since I already have the damn adapter lol. Is this all correct?

I don't think the 11 pin to 5 pin will work, but I haven't tried this so I could be wrong. I found this thread that could interest you however...

Already read it. As far as I can tell the adapter I bought is to be able to use the normal mhl adapter. Which is why it has a micro usb port as a an output. So you can connect it. The Samsung s3 mhl adapter is an 11 pin from the s3 output already. Furthermore, Samsung arguably released the latter adapter to appease the masses since they gave the consortium and people a big F U.

Are you using stick mount? Or a ROM that supports native otg? How is your micro SD card formatted?

i bought from this fella
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190951978376?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
it's more expensive and the shipping is very long. i thought it was lost until it finally showed up in my mailbox.

nice, im glad someone confirmed its [email protected]! and yes it's 5x cheaper, slimmer and much lighter but longer then meenova, i like how it comes with that earphone plug, it fits nicely with the nexus 7 FHD imo
Another alternative http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=331075518300
I have one of these tiny little do-dads. Works perfectly with stick mount. Outstanding!

that is not smaller then the meenova adapter. get your facts straight.

RJ45/LAN cable connector?

Is there a RJ45/LAN cable connector available for our Nexus 7?
I have installed a few very useful apps (IP tools, Fing, etc), they all work great but of course I need a WIFI connection before they are really useful.
At work I'm often in situations where there is no WIFI available or you just need to test through cable.
At the moment I need my laptop for this, would be great if I can do all with only my Nexus at hand.
Would such combination work on our beloved Nexus 7 (2013)?

OK, thanks. I ordered an OTG and USB LAN cable yesterday.
Not from DX, can't wait 3 weeks to deliver.
Can you post a link?

Thanks! I ordered an Edimax EU4208 which has the same chipset (AX88772B) as yours so hopefully it will work!
Also ordered a separate OTG cable.

I hope so! Good luck

Thanks, I'll let you know!
Just be careful what OTG cable you get. I have found a lot of them being very finicky! You can constantly lose you network connection.
Just received my OTG cable and Edimax EU-4208 (usb lan cable with ASIX AX88772B chipset) and it does not work OTB.
After flashing the bootloader through ADB mentioned here & here I can confirm it does work!
When doing a speedtest through http://speedtest2.nl and downloading a 1000mb.bin file I get a speed of 8 - 9MB/s.
Multiplied by 8 gives me a nice 70mbit/s, which should be pretty decent for an USB2.0 usb LAN cable.
(I have a 120mbit cable connection)
Only downside I found it does not add an ethernet option to my Android Settings Menu.
That sucks because I'm not able to set any network settings this way (IP, DNS, Subnet, Gateway etc).
Is there a way to add this? The OTG cable + lan adapter is purely for network testing etc, so setting an IP, DNS etc would be kinda mandatory.
Also a few apps do not work without a wifi connection, for instance: Fing. Is there a way to trick the apps? I already tried an XPosed module called: Hack Connectivity Service without luck...

how to make OTG cables work?

A friend of mine asked me too see if there's a way to make otg cables work with the s4 mini.
So, I googled and searched a lot and I didn't found something useful, so I'm asking you: are otg cables compatible with the s4 mini? If they're not, is there a way to make them work with the s4 mini? Thank you very much.

This has been answered many times stock s4 mini don't support otg,
workaround flash custom kernel with otg support and use "y otg" cable.

OTG on the S4 Mini works only with a custom kernel AND an OTG Y cable. (The power for the device must be provided externally. The phone will not provide the power)
