Ethernet adapter

Hi
I was wondering if anyone has seen or heard of any way to hook up a Ethernet adapter to the note ( either 10.1 or note 3)
And before you point out that one could connect to portable mini wifi routers , my job involves a lot of testing of TCP points and there for it would be nice to be able to test it via a tablet or similar instead of lobbing around a laptop next to everything else
I used to have the Asus transformer prime and there it worked fine, but I've seen some issues with samsung units
Anyone?

Yeah but I've heard that people have had issues with the other samsung products.... something about samsung taking out drivers or removing Ethernet support etc?

A small bump, anyone heard anything or know anything about this issue?

Just tested a few I had long since forgotten about ( connected via a usb otg adapter from DX.com) and non worked. even tested one that mace with my macbook air. No joy.
3 of them worked fine with my old transformer prime ...

Did you find any that worked?

Still looking, been testing a few back and fourth but no joy so far, not really a programer / developer so my tweaking skills are limited. tested 5 units so far , still no go. Reached out to a few people on the Note 3 forums to see if they have ideas... but nothing so far.
Anyone got ideas?

40 is a bit steep to just experiment.

The only adapters that are going to work out of the box are the ones currently supported by Samsung Android 3.4 kernel and ones specifically made for this device. (Ones that work with GS4 and other Flagship models may work) You may have to write a few scripts to redirect traffic over usb0 (or whatever device name it comes up as)
http://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Giga...679&sr=8-2&keywords=pluggable+gigabit+adapter
I currently have a version of this. In order to connect it to the Note I would have to have the following setup:
Hardware:
Powered MicroUSB OTG Cable - USB Ethernet Adapter - Network
Software:
Grab source for the chipset of the ethernet adapter (ARM compatible)
Build kernel modules against samsung source kernel
Flash new kernel modules or flash new kernel
This is of course assuming we get the proper ct-toolchain and all that.

Hehe , thanks for the reply, though the explanation is a tad above and beyond my technical expertise and understanding. Requires a lot more dev knowledge, then this poor wretch posses .
Anyone out there have any other suggestions, or better yet superior skills and time to donate to a project as mentioned above... ?

Have you tried the plugable fast ethernet 10/100?
Works out of box for Nexus 7

Link?
Tested total of 5 thus far, of which 3 worked on my old transfomer 201

The post above is pluggable but USB 3.0 gigabit...I just purchased this plugable but I am waiting for my OTG adapter.

Straight from plugable website :
Android and Linux
Android versions 4.0 and later have driver built-in to builds from Google- although individual Android device manufacturers sometimes disable this support. Whether driver is left enabled is left up to each device maker. For example, we’ve found that all ASUS Android tablets (TF200, TF300, TF700, etc) tested to date have support for the driver, however none of the Samsung (Note, Note2, Tab, Tab2) devices we’ve tested had driver support. Advanced users running rooted devices or custom ROMS like Cyanogen mod aren’t supported by Plugable, however may be able to obtain community support from sites like XDA developers.
Drivers built into Linux kernel 2.6.35 and higher.
Source code for advanced users familiar with compiling and installing drivers using kernel 2.6.14-2.6.34 and early 3.0/4.0 kernel versions is available at the download link below:
AX88772 Linux driver 4.11 source code
For older Linux kernels 2.6.9-2.6.13, instead use:
AX88772 Linux driver 1.2.2 source code

Android Auto with OnePlus 3 running Oxygen 3.1.2

Anyone had any luck or tried their new Oneplus 3 with Android Auto yet? I have been unable to get mine to connect with the factory USB type C cable on my Pioneer AVH-4100NEX. My Oneplus One running Sultans CAF 13.0 ROM runs no problem. This could be enough to make me return this new OnePlus 3 honestly. I really rely and love Android Auto.

unlock bootload and flash cm13, since sultans rom runs off of CM13 and see if that works

Sultan has not made a ROM for Oneplus 3, or else I would definitely do that. I am watching the threads with other CM 13 authors but seems a little too early to jump in on any of those.

OK I have tried Resurrection Remix Official which is a CM based ROM, still no luck (Very nice ROM with a ton of features BTW) Have some Type C cables and adapters on the way from Amazon, maybe it is the factory cable?? If anyone has had success or issues would love to hear from you, I can't be the only one

Come on guys, Android Auto is a must these days....how can we make it work ?

Glad I saw this thread before I bought. If Android Auto will not work on it then I'll gonna pass on it. Hope they get it working in time as I do want this phone.

I did have similar issues with ROM's when I first got my AVH-4100NEX and my Oneplus One, luckily I just kept trying a few different ROM's until one worked. Never figured out what the issue was but now most I have tried have worked with the One. Just being so new there are only so many to try with the Oneplus 3 at this point.
I have contacted Oneplus about it, they don't even know what I am talking about, they just keep replying that they can't guarantee the phone to work with all bluetooth devices. I have told them twice now it is not the Bluetooth, in fact my Bluetooth has been fine. It is only when the cable is plugged in. I have made some progress on the latest ROM I have tried, it now says Android Auto is connected on the phone, notification, BUT...it isn't because I do not get the 2nd notification I am used to saying the phone is in car mode AND the Android Auto button on the head unit is not lighting up.
Tried multiple cables now, and known working micro USB cables with type C adapters now. Same results. It's either the phone or the ROM. Next thing I am going to try is a different version if GAPPS specifically play services, since everything uses it it would appear.

I was able to get my OnePlus 3 connected to my Seat Leon with Android Auto a few times after I plugged it in and out dozens of times, did some restarts of the OPO3 and the media unit, plus some tinkering with the USB MTP and notification access settings. But it was never stable, longest lasting connection was about 15 minutes long, than it crashed again. The overall success rate for connecting is about 1 of 10 times. So altogether not usable...

The question is on the official 1+ forums also and they are ignoring it.
I'm guessing there will be no AA support.
Oh well, The Axon 7 is being released soon and hopefully it will work there.

I tried it on my golf 7 and it was working fine then a couple minutes later it started freaking out. Kept connecting and disconnecting in a loop. Seemed like an issue android auto had when I first got the car with my Nexus 6 but was eventually fixed with an update to AA.

Forgot to mention that I was using it with a micro USB cable with an adapter on it. Also I should try it again because a lot of things seem to have some issues on first use with this phone. If not I'll try one plus cable.

Work around accord 2016
I had a tough time getting Android Auto working with my Honda accord 2016. All other phones worked fine except the op3.
Finally was able to get it to work. Here is what i did:
1. Enable developers options
2. Connect the phone to the car while the car is on
3. Go to developers options and under "select USB configuration" pick "MIDI"
Then Android Auto connects to the car. It is really disappointing to see the bugginess of the phone. I really like the hardware. But the software is s**t. If I wasn't past the return date I would have gotten a different phone. Oh well at least I got it to work for now. Hopefully op will release an update to fix the glitches.
Had connected to support and asked them about Android Auto support before i figured out the work around. They flatly stated that Android Auto is not a supported feature. Support was supposed to be added in "a few weeks". Don't know how long weeks are in OP land
Cheers and hope this helps someone

Ah you used midi? I tried mtp but that didn't work. The latest release fixed the issue of it not saving the selected USB mode. It always reverted to charging

"Android O - 8.0" PossIble for Zenfone 2?

Hello everyone, it is possible to receive custom ROM "Android O" for our Zenfone 2 ???

O was just announced, we're going to have to wait a little longer before we can know if it's possible, and a lot longer before it's actually built.

I wouldn't say completely. Google is laying out minimum hardware requirements for stuff like audio, vr and ar which our old phone may not mean.
But do I have confidence that our devs will make everything else work? Yes, completely. Although it's gonna take a long time. I will be elated if N hits stable.

Since the question of this topic can't really be answered, someone knows how long statistically can a device be supported by custom roms? I mean maybe Android Z is too far fetched, but android P for example?

well my current daily driver is an AOKP 7.1.1 Nougat on my Zenfone Max ZC550KL with no bugs so we can hope the same for O when Lineage OS releases its own version.

Hardware is the least of our problems, considering the one in Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML for example) is more than adequate.
Google making up it's own hardware requirements is nothing more than pandering to the idea of planned obsolescence to be honest so that they can sell newest phones.
I think that if the devs can get their hands on viable drivers that support the hardware in our devices and are compatible with Android 8, then technically, it shouldn't be an issue.
For Oreo, google would be pushing certain updates (fixes, etc.) not as a standalone feature, but something that would work in the same way as Windows and MacOS system updates do within the same OS version.
We know Windows updates usually work on a variety of hardware if the Windows as an OS is the same... the only thing that you also need are drivers to properly support the hardware in question (which can be difficult if the hardware is ancient, but I doubt this would apply to Zenfone 2) - this especially applies to upgrading from say Windows 7 to Windows 10 for example as some features like a microphone might stop working if the hardware in question was say from 10 years ago. Works on say Windows 7 for example because Vista drivers were made for the hardware in question which were compatible with Windows 7 to a point, but for Windows 10, compatibility between drivers for older Windows was not maintained and new drivers need to be written.
So, large OS replacement would likely depend on hardware drivers support and updating the OS sequentially shouldn't be an issue if the drivers exist - if they don't... then it's a problem.
Manufacturers tend to stop supporting hardware after a certain time... OEM's are even worse.
If we can find drivers independently from a company that produced it, then it might be possible to find more recent drivers that work.
In case of GPU's (or any other hardware inside your PC), you wouldn't rely on the OEM for drivers. You'd go to AMD's or Nvidia's websites to download latest drivers.

[O Preview 3] USB DAC or OTG working?

Now it's been almost a month after the release of the third build(opp3) of O preview! Since google poured a great effort for their 3rd build, it's way much more stable than its 2nd build.
I'm pretty sure some of you guys are using this as a daily driver, but I can't because Nexum AQUA isn't working properly on this build.
Since Google tried to improve the audio quality, I think it caused the problem with some driver changes or etc. But before I take it seriously, I'm wondering if it's only me having trouble with external DAC. Also, I thought it can be also a problem of kernel for using OTG since the DAC working via OTG.
So, let me know if there's someone having similar problem of OTG or USB DAC. Anyone else? :crying:

USB-C Hub (USB 3.0, SD/microSD, etc) Compatible with Pixel 2 XL

Anyone have or found a USB-C hub yet that will work with the 2 xl to hook up external HD/thumb drive/microSD/SD cards? Preferably with power input so you can use a powered 3.0 HD like a passport.
When traveling I like to be able to backup my photos from my main cameras (sony Nex 6 and Gopro) to a hard drive or drives, and right now I am using a travel router. It's ok, but the transfer is slow, its a little glitchy, and a little bulky, and I would like to streamline the process and the equipment. I've tried using hubs and cables in the past with my Nexus 7 2013, but it also was not very good and the transfer speeds were awful as I had to go from SD card to tablet, tablet to hard drive. Hoping to go straight SD card to hard drive this time, and at 3.0 speeds if possible.

Following up - something like this (basically a MacBook hub). Anyone have experience with one of these working and any idea what file system formats are supported?

Same boat. I would like to use it as a hub/transfer point for my external drive, camera(s), and SD cards and then to maybe let it upload the days shots to my server at home while sleeping (if I have decent wifi).
There are obviously some more options for this coming out with hard drives that handle this specific task, but still not ideal IMO.

I purchase it, let's see if it works. I did a combination of the OTG and a 3.0 usb card reader and I needed to purchase an otg enabler in the play store. That works but is kinda slow reading. Let's see how this new one works

Thats a bummer. Using the otg adapter in the box I can see a USB thumb drive no problem, but so far plugging my other USB hubs into that adapter give nothing. Ideally I need a USB 3.0 and SDcard on a hub so I can transfer straight from camera cards to the thumbdrive/external drive. going from the camera to the phone, then phone to the drive is tedious at best.
