So I played around with these Touchpads, and I really like them. I bought one for $100 which was a good deal. But I was under the impression that they had a MicroSD slot from what my friend said.
So what I plan on doing is taking CR2 Raw files from my Canon SLR and putting them onto a MicroSd and show clients right after I took them with the Touchpad. The whole reason for me going down this road. I have tried looking through this site and really couldnt find anything.
So I found an adapter that will plug into the Microusb plug and I was wondering if there was thing better that you guys would suggest and or is this a good buy?

The usb adapter will work if you use a usb y cable and a usb power brick. The touchpads usb port supports usb host but has no power going out

um pretty much what he said, the product you are looking at does you no good because there's not another cord stemming off of it in which you could plug into a power supply.
picture attached gives you a ****ty visualization, however i don't know where to find the product you're looking for lol
i bought a solar self powered 4 port hub and an otg cable.. that is your power source for the hptp micro port.. i paid less than 12$ for complete set up..
read this.. i used hub that has all ports inline instead of the OP's suggested hub.. Y cables are messy..

For your setup you'd need an OTG cable with a way to supply power. Something like this should work if you have a USB power source, like your charger or one of those battery powered USB chargers. Then you'll need any USB microSD reader. The card will show up under "/mnt/usbdisk".

I have to be mobile for this is there any simple way to do this?
did you read about the self powered hub i linked to ?
if you want simpler, you would have to break into the internals and mod the hardware

well im shopping online, love amazon, cant see that info
Patriot Rage ones are pretty quick. As has been said if you check the manufacturers website they have speed ratings normally listed there.
USB 3.0 wont give you any quicker speeds on the nexus but with it being so readily available you might aswell get one for if you ever get usb 3 on your pc, which will make transferring files to it quicker.
I'm in the same boat, looking for a 64GB one after next pay day!

I second this, although you won't gain anything directly in the n10 with a well rated usb3 thumb drive you are setting yourself up well then. 1) If you use it with any usb3 hardware the transfer speeds are fantastic and 2) for the most part any well speced/reviewed usb3 drive will be transferring at the quickest whatever usb2 speeds the n10 (or any other usb2 device) can handle. (All depending on file sizes and such as well, for the most part lots and lots of tiny files are horridly slow writing to almost any thumb drive).

You should be limited by a USB2.0 OTG cable anyway, so no a USB3 device would do nothing.
While I dont usually see it advertised, you can read through the description and the better ones usually like to advertise how they are better. Some say things like "dual channel flash chips for added speed" Another example:
With 4 channel architecture and only the finest NAND, Ventura Pro is a pro for a reason.

It would be great if we were able to install Android onto that USB flash drive through an OTG adapter. It would be far faster than the built in NAND

Why won't you gain anything on the Nexus with USB 3.0 ? There is a huge speed difference between 2 and 3. The N10 supports USB 3.0.

Actually I read somewhere the hardware does support USB 3.0. While not equipped with the port tho, this could be a possibility with a pogo dock of some sort. Have neo clue if that even supports it. Would be quite nice if it did take advantage of the internal hardware.

I own a portable HD that is usually plugged into my PC, can cary it around when I want to take my movies or games with me (share with friends)
But the point of a tablet ,for me, is to have something portable that doesnt get in the way. And a bigass HD does get in the way even if it's portable.
So I just ordered this:
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B008R6OPJQ/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Will use like an external SD card (will put all my titanium backups and such on it, and mount it with Sitckmount)
Also stick some videos in there when im on a trip.
Anyone know if any of these adapters work through the dock?
Was thinking of getting this as it does mention Android but that's not very specific or doesn't really mean much

did some googling to see if it was possible, and this one will work. first review said you can use it through settings without an app. The one you posted should work the same way.
Thanks for the reply, that was my thought so I ordered it anyway.

In case anyone was wondering, this just got delivered.
I plugged it into the Dock and right away in the notification it says Ethernet port is detected. I plugged in a cable and it works right away.
Now I can get internet in our crappy other offices.
Very happy especially for $15.

Is this the adapter from Monoprice, or the one from Amazon?
EDIT: Actually, I just noticed that the one on Amazon is 100M rather than 1G ethernet, so I assume you went with Monoprice.

You need to stick to something with the AX88772 chipset. The AX88178 might work - mixed danswers around the web on that one. Definately don't get anything with the SMSC LAN7500 chipset either. Stay far away from the AX88179. I bought a StarTech with that chipset and it did not work in any Android device I have.
Finally I bought the one Asus makes one for $19.99 on Amazon - has the AX88772 and works just fine (the Asus connect dock for the TF201/300/700's has that chip in it too so I knew it would work - took mine apart to find out what was in it).
Sleeepy2 - Is that adapter USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 ?
The reason that I asked - on monoprice.com written USB 3.0 and the the color of socket - really blue.
But on ebay from the same seller USB 2.0. From Amazon - BobjGear-Ethernet - USB 2.0
Cadstar - Same things, I bought from Gigabit usb 3.0 - chipset AX88179 - working with Win 7..8 and linux , but not android and Asus tf701
Not really sure, any idea how I can check?
1. The type A connection (the "standard" USB connection that plugs into your computer), should be blue, like: media.bestofmicro.com/USB3-SuperSpeed-external-storage,4-B-252875-13.jpg
2. Speed. You really can feel it if you copy few giga via cable.
Well it is blue and it seems fast. The sticker on it also says USB 3 so I will go with yes it is
Thanks, I intend to buy.
Maybe someone will be useful.
My old Trendnet TU2-ET100 h/w: 3.0 (AX88772 chipset) works great in our device!
Speed Ethernet even slightly higher than over WiFi
Possible reasons:
1. Samsung figured that MOST people don't take advantage of the USB 3.0 transfer speeds.
2. It requires extra hardware = needing to stuff more stuff into the phone.
3. Higher production cost.
4. Some rumor that the USB 3.0 caused charging issues? (Complete joke, because it worked perfect for me.)
Please add on to the list if you have more info...
Personally I wish they had kept the USB 3.0 as I'm one of those who actually took advantage of it. At least they somewhat off set it with the 50% charge in 30 minutes.
Is it just me or does the USB 3.0 just add that extra premium feel? Thicker cable, faster transfer speeds...just more beefy looking with the performance to back it up.
I despise connecting a phone to pc. with cords and usb connecting, Entire process seems tedious and sloppy. On the rare occasions i do connect, i usually try to capitalize on opportunity to get a quick charge in the process.
Maybe they just had a space issue on the board.
Whatever the reason I thoroughly dislike having to buy new usb cables, and otg cables for my travel dac and usb drives.
And the data transfer speed will suffer, when transferring ROMs downloaded on a PC first.
I think so too.

I would lean towards cost savings, since Note 4 is actually little bit bigger than Note3 and it's not like they made it waterproof or something, to fill up the extra space (Galaxy S5 has USB3 BTW). I'm disappointed, even if I was never going to use it, cutting features on the flagship device is not the way I would like Samsung to go, what else are they going to cut in the next model? This supposed to be top of the line model filled with newest tech, if they keep on doing it I may as well buy some cheap chinese knock off, it will also have all the basic features, most people use. Actually I was hoping they'll actually fix that USB 3, so it's auto detecting not getting rid of it, very disappointed, almost as much as the phone not being waterproof.
I can see your point, because as an USB 3.0 user, not being able to transfer Gigs at a time in a few seconds is going to be greatly missed. In theory I think they could have just kept it without sacrificing anything else really. Heck, it's already proven to be true for the Note 3. So that's out of the question.
I'm not worried about Samsung cutting things in the future. They may learn from this misfit and hopefully our slaps will reach them to where they won't do something like this again LOL.
All in all... I am 90% satisfied with the Note 4. The USB 3.0 really weight 10% for me because I use it on a daily basis.

You are right!
There is no difference at all, I tested it using a stop watch with a file of
two gigabytes and had the same results in speed with usb 2.0 or 3.0.
Also I really dislike the extra wide 3.0 connector which usb 3.0 requires.

I'm not sure if they fix it in GS5, but on Note 3 USB3 wasn't autodetecting, you had to go to settings and manually switch to USB 3 mode, really stupid way, since some tablets had it autodetecting a while ago and most people won't even know about it. Of course I'm assuming you're using USB3 port on your computer. Also how fast is your SD card? Phone memory is fastest. Charging from computer port is faster on USB3 also, I tested it long time ago I think it was almost twice as fast.
Thanks for clearing this up. I almost fell to the floor laughing of the thought of some thinking that USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 are of the same LOL.
Although a little cumbersome, all you have to do is flip the switch. Easy. Done deal.

Nope...no setting. And I don't use SD cards.
If they could implement it properly then I'd want it more but it was a half-ass implementation on the previous phones so I don't really miss it.
I don't care why they did it I'm just pissed that I got a bunch of cables I can't use now. When I switch devices my whole family switches to that device so now I have tons of USB 3 cables around the house and now we can't use them. At the very least I hope they will release the wireless charging back for us that have been taking advantage of it.
Im guessing the exclusion of USB3 had something to do with the fast charge system. Maybe heat, price who knows. The Note 4 has the option to use 9V at 1.6amps

Don't worry about the usb 3 0 cables, they are not proprietary and they are and

No worries. Just save them for the Note 5 and beyond. :good:

You know, you're right. This is in theory the best reason in my books. Maybe the fast charge system took the place of the USB 3.0 hardware. Only one or the other type of thing. But can we have both the icing and the cake? Maybe next time...
In reality though, although I am a heavy USB 3.0 user, most people would take the fast charge over the USB 3.0 any day. I know I know....it is what it is until we can get both.

Just bought one of these and plan to test it out to see if I can get 3A charging. Confirmed with the manufacturer that it does in fact support 3A from the type-C port, but only 1.5A from the standard type-A port included. I will report back once tested.

Yeah - might be tough tp make any sort of external peripheral that might hook up to SATA or something that can handle the same power requirements for charging. I think these things have their own power cable internally, just like a harddrive or DVD.
Well - I've tested this thing fairly well now and can report it does pretty great. I can get a full charge from around 10-15% in about an hour and it reports as delivering a true 3A using the Current Monitor app. Still maybe not quite as good as the OEM charger, but as close as anything I have tried so far.
