OnePlus3 Lan - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hello there,
I've had constant problems with my wifi reception in my room, so I decided to move to ethernet on my phone, at least for streaming video content.
Next I did order this https://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=165094&PROVID=2788&wt_mc=amc141526782519998&gclid=Cj0KCQjwwevLBRCGARIsAKnAJvdjdNWKYiUvEuktVoxBqvco-mV6dL5eAIaDVH68KX7jdTnmxVvdytYaAn-CEALw_wcB Lan to Usb type C adapter...
Aaaand it is not working...
looking at this tutorial, I think I should just be plugging it in and then seeing the icon in my status bar, right?
but I am not...
My guess would be, that I need an usb OTG adapter for whatever reason.
Sadly I do not have any other usb type C enabled devices to test the adapter, but it gets warm and is detected by my switch, so I guess it is working.
Has anyone in here experience with connecting a OP3 or in fact any Android 7 phone to Ethernet?
thanks a lot for help with this!

If your intention is to get internet via cable, and you have a laptop or pc in your room, you can simply keep the ethernet in you pc/laptop, and then use an reverse tethering app, to get the internet on your phone using your usb cable. I remember doing this a couple of years ago when i had an samsung galaxy mini

Quell this would not be in my intentions, but if it is the only way...
Did anyone in here try to use a Oneplus 3 with Ethernet yet?
Btw, I am on stock Oxygen OS and would like to stay there, as I would like to use my phone for mobile payments in the future.

USB wireless keyboard/mouse using wifi

Well I've been searching for a while trying to connect the S3 as a laptop using MHL+USB OTG, but seems it is not possible or simply hard enough to consider other options. Several options have been considered:
1- Using BT keyboard/mouse is not always suitable since most of us use 2.4Ghz USB keyboard/mouse and it does not consider connecting HDD or other stuff.
2- I found an application that allows you to use your keyboard/mouse connected to your PC to control the phone, "takecontrol", take a look here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...NvbS5kcm9pZGNvbnRyb2wudGFrZWNvbnRyb2xsaXRlIl0.
Using this app you could also share an HDD connected to that PC solving one of the previous problem BT has.
But this configuration forces you to have your computer switched on... a bit useless if what you want is to connect the S3 as a PC instead of using an actual one.
3- After this I thought of using a wifi USB HUB, but hey! most of routers have USB ports, so why don't we use them instead of buying a new equipment? Then I realised it should work fine for sharing contents from a USB HDD but for USB wireless mouse/keyboard...
(those of you who have a BT mouse/keyboard but don't know how to connect the USB HDD to get "full" PC experience with the S3/S2/Note..., maybe it's still interesting this option)
So my question is if it is possible to connect a USB wireless mouse/keyboard plugging it to a wifi USB HUB. Maybe with an android app? what do you think guys?
I'm still thinkin about this.
Would be possible to use a wireless USB Hub, via wifi or BT?

Help , need to get OTG and MHL working simultaneously !

Hi guys,
My galaxy nexus screen has been cracked and it does not respond in 75% of the screen.
I bought a MHL to HDMI convertor on amazon and luckily got the phone UI to show up on my TV
Now since the touchscreen won't work , I need to connect a keyboard or mouse via USB OTG and use it for navigation.
Problem is the Galaxy Nexus has only a single microUSB/MHL port combined into one.
I have no idea how to split the output from the phone to connect to a USB OTG cable and MHL to HDMI adapter simultaneously !
Any help will be appreciated,
The phone is not rooted AFAIK , but may be I'm not sure. It was running Android 4.1 JellyBean when I dropped it on the floor
The phone does show up on my Windows PC and I have copied the photos off it. But I still want to copy contacts and SMS messages.
You tried just using something like Android Screencast from the PC (USB debugging is needed)
Also, some MHL adapters have a USB port in them, for power. Have you tried getting a crude micro USB splitter? Like this one? http://www.replacebase.co.uk/micro-usb-female-to-2-x-micro-usb-male-splitter-2392-p.asp#.URk59JGYOBs
Not guaranteed that would work though. Also, a quick google of what you want brings up some others with the same issue, have you tried to see if any of them have succeeded?

Good news
I had a spare galaxy nexus in the office and I gently took the screws of both the devices , and just swapped the displays so that I could quickly turn on usb debugging , backup essential stuff and also turn on bluetooth.
Thanks to some assembly videos on youtube ! will share some pics soon

Does the Samsung LAN/USB Hub ET-UP900 work?

Hi @ all
Does anyone knows, if the original Samsung LAN/USB Hub ET-UP900 will work with this tablet? Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to post a link.
I'd like to fit the tablet into my car, use the two usb-ports for sound-out and external hard-disk, use the micro-usb for charging the tablet while using the usb-ports at the same time. LAN port not needed.
Does this work?
Greetings from Switzerland
Patrick
I've been wondering that my self??
Anyone?
I have just checked on the Samsung German site and when you select our model of tablet it comes up and says not compatible. Although I personally would take that with a pinch of salt. Shame it was not a little cheaper then I would just buy it and try it lol.
---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 PM ----------
Also looking at the specs closer it is for use on the Note Pro so there is absolutely no reason why it would not work.
Assuming that too, but too risky to buy the tablet and the hub if something won't work after all...
So I'm hoping that anyone is able to check it out.

So, guys, after a few tries with other devices like Multimedia Dock......cause i can't believe, that its not possible to use usb and charge at the same time, and ALL other devices definitely Don't work, I buy this at conrad electronic in munich, cause there I know, I can bring it back, and get money back, if it doesn't fit......and, I wonder very very much.....it works.....but I only tested usb and charge....and device check it as a usb connector....thats important.....I dont know why, but multimedia dock won't work, it doesn't be shown as a dock, no charging. ....but it works with note 3.....strange.....but now im looking for a way to connect it to LAN. If I connect it, nothing happens, no internet connection.....how it will work on pro? An app needed? Cause in settings are no options to configure a Lan Connection......I think, you will need ipv4 settings for.....or it is done very simple and there is a simple script in the firmware of pro devices? Anyone knows? Im searching the internet, but found nothing about......
Ah....and the reason for searching this device is: if you want to use a bluetooth keyboard, you'll have problema with bluetooth connection all the time....I figure out, pairing it new every time is better.....but at this device, wlan an bluetooth must be going over the same modem or hardware, cause if you use both, wlan and bluetooth for keyboard, you got massive trouble with internet connection and sometimes you cant connect to your access point.....really ****.....I try an usb keyboard , wireless from Microsoft with pad....and this works perfect. ...but then, you can't charge anymore.....with any hubs or something, no chance, and all older devices wont work.....damned.....does anyone have a solution for the bluetooth trouble? I try the bluetooth fix apps also,they help a but for bluetooth problems but not for the wlan disaster....whats the reason for ? The radio?......wil be happy for any answers.....
you running kit kat or?
After seen the spec and it probably wont work. ET-UP900 need USB 3.0 port and Note 2014 only have USB 2.0 port. Maybe some kind of USB 3 to USB 2 adapter might work.
The USB 3.0 Port is just for charging, for example with a wall plug...
sent from htc one...
I'm thinking it's more of an issue with drivers or kernel ....
That's why I'd love to hear from someone with KK installed

Just got my brand new official Samsung USB lan/Hub. And..... it doesn't work. The usb part of it seems to wok ok, but it doesn't detect ethernet. The user manual wants me to go into the settings --> more networks-- Ethernet connections... BUT I have no such setting
planing on playing around for a little while longer, but sorry to say lads, it doesn't seem to work.
suggestions?
Seems that I atleast have hit a wall with regards to getting this to work. Anyone have any bright ideas? or dark ideas for that mater??
Anyone actually managed to get this to work?
Ok, guys.....i think, you mean the adapter for Note pro? I got it, and it works. .... first, i bought this, cause it was the only USB adapter, that charge and using usb at the same time with p600........... and then i try to get Ethernet work. ...... the thing is, you have to know some things about ip4 connections, this is a kind different to wifi connections. ...... but i can offer you good news, the adapter works. The thing is, the firmware of p600/605 isn't modified to say the apps, they can connect to Internet with ethernet. ..
With the Adapter, the connection works, if you look to your router, you will find your device in Lan network. ......
What you need, are two things. ..... first, the app "ethernet" from play store (need root), that gives your device the right ip address, subnet mask and the gateway. .... (you don't have to do anything, just start the app, and press "enable")...... and the second one ist xposed framework and the module "hack connectivity", this little tool will say all apps to listen also to Ethernet Routing, not only wifi....... for me, this ,works like a charm, if i come to office, i plug the adapter in, with a wireless keyboard usb plug, Lan connected and also a cable to charge my note 3........ than i just enable the ethernet app, and change keyboard to my own for external keys (external keyboard helper), and that's all, so i have Lan Internet (4 times faster than wifi), have connection to my pc, and a external keyboard and mouse. ..... that's perfect. ....
If I'm finished, i plug the adapter off, and disable ethernet app, it changes automatically to wifi. ........
For generally information : Android already have ethernet drivers enabled from source, also in Samsung firmware, eth0 is working, the thing is, the apps are just programmed to listen to Wifi only. ....... don't know why, cause it's just one simple parser line to get this working.....
OK, on a mobile, it's not so interesting to havea Lan connection, but on a tablet, this will really good and fast. ....
Try this and habe fun. ... but i don't understand, why Samsung have the pins of the 10.1 204 so stupid organized, that all docking stations and usb adapters don't work with charging and usb at same time. .... the note 3 Multimedia Dock will not be detected as a dock. ....... that's so stupid. ....... shame on Samsung. ... if this was my company, i will fire the engineers at the same day if they make such a ****..........

Thanks
I got this ET-UP900 adapter working with a SM-C115 by compiling a custom kernel. If you add the right drivers you can probably run use it with most devices.
During the build process of the kernel you run "make menuconfig". Here you select "Device Drivers" > "Network Device Support" > "USB Network Adapters". Include the "Multi-purpose USB Networking Framework" and "SMSC LAN95XX base USB 2.0 10/100 ethernet devices". If you add those as module you got to load them with "insmod mii.ko; insmod usbnet.ko; insmod smsc95xx.ko" in this order.
My current problem with this is that the device is not carging through the adapater. I guess there is another driver or option missing but I am still looking into this.

Does google pixel phone support ethernet usb adapter ???

his anybody already used usb ethernet adapter with the new google pixel phone? i know that some nexus phone support it natively but i cant find any info about pixel phone.
thank you
nougat 7
maybe someone know if nougat allow ethernet connection?
Just making some test.
Adaptors works with the Google nexus 5X, but don't seem to work with the Pixel.
Installed the "Hardware Info" app, and on the 5x, under Features > Android Hardware there is a line saying:
Code:
android.hardware.ethernet
This line is missing on my Pixel
Both phones are running Android 7.1.1
My asix usb 3.0 adapters worked well with the Pixel initially (Realtek USB 3.0 ethernet never did work). Since the last updates there are issues. The ethernet symbol still shows up in the notification bar when you connect the ethernet dongle but there is no working connection in any app, despite the browser. And in the browser only www.google.com works. You can type something and press search and it will show you the results list, but when you klick on one of them the page won't load. No idea what causes this.
It used to work on my 6P, but when I connect it to my PIxel XL it doesn't seem to recognize it. I'm using the newest update, January patch level. Nothing in the notification bar. But the ethernet adapter gets power and the port lights up on the router.
I can confirm that Ethernet is supported on both the Pixel phone and Pixel tablet running vendor Android 7.1.1. I'm using an Apple Ethernet-to-USB adapter along with a female USB-A to USB-C adapter that was included in the box with the pixel phone.
I don't have a Pixel XL to try but I can't imagine it would be any different...

Can confirm this as well with my Plugable adapter with the ASIX AX88179 chipset. The only difference is that I get some things to work, like Hangouts. YouTube videos play/load but the experience feels as if I'm browsing a post-apocalyptic internet. I've also gotten a speed test to work but the app thinks it's via the cell data connection. Overall, a very primitive experience but could develop with time if we're squeaky enough.

Yes, Youtube works here, too. I think it must have something to do with certificate permissions. It is pretty obvious that the pages that work are google services. Hopefully they fix it in the next update. Probably we should make the Pixel team aware of the issue.

Can you connect your adapter to a pc and check in device manage whether it's an asix or realtek adapter. I would be odd if they supported realtek adapters in the nexus but not in the pixel. About the notification bar: It will only show the ethernet symbol if wifi is disconnected. You should disable wifi first and try again. (I didn't notice because I used a usb 3.0 ethernet adapter with a 3.0 capable usb a to c adapter in a 2.4 ghz wifi network. In this setup the wifi connections was disconnected 'automatically' due to interference with the usb 3.0 signals. If you use the white usb 2.0 a to c adapter that came with the pixel or if you have a 5 ghz wifi router wifi won't disconnect.)

Strange, also have a non-XL Pixel and it doesn't work flawlessly here. Google, Gmail and Youtube work, but all other pages won't. Can you confirm that non-google pages, such as cnn.com for example, work with your apple ethernet adapter?

It's an asix AX88179. I'm using a USB 3.0 OTG cable. The device gets powered and my Pixel says it's supplying power to it, and the status lights come on on the adapter and the switch port. I disabled wifi and still didn't have anything in the status bar other than LTE. I remember there was a distinct icon on my 6P to indicate it was using the ethernet connection. This exact same adapter worked fine on my Nexus 6P, at least before 7.1 (can't speak for if it still does or not).
I'm guessing Google just removed the drivers from the kernel?
Sent from my Pixel XL
I posted some findings in another thread but it seems relevant to what you all are working on here so I'll repost.
I have a Google Pixel (not XL) running 7.1.1 and it too does nothing with a USB 3.0 Asix AX88179 adapter. That said, it works absolutely perfectly with the Ableconn USB2E100B USB to 10/100 Fast Ethernet Adapter (ASIX AX88772B Low Power). This is only a 10/100 adapter but how fast do you really need for most purposes?
In case order-of-operations matters: I plug the RJ45 cable from my Ethernet switch into the Ethernet adapter, then I plug that into the OTG adapter that came with the phone, and then plug it into the phone. It takes about 7 seconds or so for the network status lights on the Ethernet adapter to come on and then a couple seconds later I get the <⋅⋅⋅> indicator on the status bar and the LTE indicator disappears from my mobile network signal strength meter. If I go to IPChicken I do indeed see the DNS name for my home network instead of a Verizon Wireless DNS name.
Speedtest shows 89 Mbps down and 11.83 Mbps up which is of course much better than even 4G speeds. I can watch YouTube and use every network based app on the phone just fine. I can't find any way to adjust the settings of the adapter (to manually configure a static IP, subnet mask, default gateway, etc.) but since most networks have DHCP enabled this shouldn't be a huge issue very often.
I'd like to find a gigabit Ethernet adapter that works with the phone but honestly that'd just be for the sake of the quest. This adapter does everything I need - which is mostly just to be able to get onto the physical network instead of coming in via WiFi.
Even though I have the regular Pixel and not the XL I would expect that this would all be the same for you guys.
Hope this helps.
I found a partial solution to the problem that only some web pages and apps work with the ASIX AX88179 adapter: Use a vpn client and all pages and apps will work. Not ideal but better than nothing.
Anyone try this recently? Any luck? What kind of adapter? My work building has terrible cell signal, and wifi is garbage.

A working solution is detailed in this message.
The ethernet adapter used for that solution is not in stock, and Amazon says they don't know if it will be available again.

I should have put more effort into my reply. It looks like I've purchased additional adapters since those posts.
I currently have two different Gigabit adapters that work great:
Plugable USB3-E1000 (with USB C connector - plugs right into the phone)
Linksys USB3GIGV1 (with USB A connector - which I use when connecting the Pixel to a USB hub)
Both connect to my Netgear GS108 at 1000 Mbps (according to the lights on the switch) and work great.
Hope this helps.

Samsung Dex Working on PC but not on TV

I am using Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ (SM-N975F) with Android 10.
I am able to use the Samsung Dex on PC just fine but when i connect it to the TV through HDMI adapter, it only mirrors the screen and i get no option to turn on Samsung Dex. I have checked the HDMI connection setting too and it's set to start in Dex mode upon connection but still nothing happens.
I tried the same even on Android 9 before getting the update to Androi 10 but the issue faced was the same.
Any idea what to do? Or is there is any thing i am missing or doing wrong?
By the way i am using a USB C adapter which has 2 USB 3 ports, One USB C port and an HDMI port.
Any help would be appreciated.
I didnt know that dex also worked on tv...
it could be a fault in the adapter, it may lack the security or something that is required to pass through to HDMI. as with USB to PC it just transfers the info over a standard USB connection. but a lot of modern devices require certain security and HDMI revisions to actually work with a TV, partly to stop people putting the likes of netflix straight through a capture rig.
if you can get hold of a different make/brand of hub I would try that as it may just be that one.
Just to update that I used Samsung Dex Cable and it worked just fine with the TV. As soon as I connected through it, the option popped on phone for Dex. So yes, my Hdmi to Usbc adapter was at fault and there is always a plus side to use official accessories .
