Usb tablet to phone? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

.I guess this isn't necessarily a captivate glide only question, but this is the phone I got yesterday....
what would happen if I plug the usb cable into my a500 tablet and then connect my glide to it?
I'm too much in tech-love with my new phone (and my tablet for that matter) to just try it blindly.
Has anyone here connected their phone to a tablet?
Thanks

[Q] Is possible to use Apple usb cable with the Galaxy Tab?

Hi guys,
I saw that the Apple usb cable can fit in the Galaxy port, now the question is: can we use the Apple usb cable with the Galaxy? Does anyone have the wire scheme for both cables. Could be useful to use Apple cable as spare...

It'd be awesome if it did. It really would. That'd me we could use any iAccessories as speakers and so forth. So yeah, definitely understandable if they did. But something in my heart says its just not going to be.
Wait and see eh ?
Yes it would be nice, but would be enough if the wires in the cable are the same, and if would be possible to use it instead of the original.

I red somewhere, that it's not possible, and you can brake your Tab, because of different wiring

Where did you see this? The cable certainly does not fit into my tab's port. The connectors look similar but they are not the same.

Infact my question is more about the wiring.You're right it doesnt fit, but just (it seems to me) for the 2 small metal parts on the upper corners of the connector (tab side),shouldnt be difficult to mod it,but I'm not going to try for nothing if wires are setup differently in the cable.
At the moment i'm more concern on discover how to recharge it via usb connected on a pc or mac!!

Not possible because Samsung did use the same cable but they flipped the internals of the cable itself I have thought of this though but do not try u will break something I do own a ipod cable and galaxy tab cable same plug just assembled differently on purpose buy samsung

As this has been resurrected from the dead again I'm moving it so it fits in where it should be.
No, I have tried many times
Why? Enough just to try once.

Turtlebeach Setup Question

I have a 360 and I use the 360 wireless adapter which currently occupies the USB port on the back.
I see that the Turtlebeach requires me to plug this into the back USB port.
What's the best way to go about this? No, I will not use Ethernet cable or get the new Xbox.

Would a USB hub work?
Max. (From my Galaxy 2)
I have to look for a hub but I don't know if that'll work. This headset is hella complicated.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
No it doesn't need to be plugged into the back port. You can use any USB port (even one from your computer). The back port is recommended because it only provides power thus freeing up the other USB ports for things that don't only need power for
Or at least I think so. Either way any USB on your Xbox will work for your Turtle Beaches.
Cool. I will try it now. This thing is a beast. I didn't think people took mics this serious. My GF got it for me.

[Q](Solved) Micro usb problem

My phone charges fine, and my usb jig works fine. When I connect it to the pc. It charges fine. But to connect it to the pc, so I can mount the sd card or so I can connect to Odin, the micro usb doesn't connect right away for data transfer.
I need to insert the micro usb a little tiny bit, wait a second, then push it the rest of they way in, so the usb debugging notification pops up. And most of the time, I have to repeat the process of inserting and removing the micro usb several times, until the usb debugging and usb storage shows up in my notification Window.
I want to ask if anyone else has this problem. If so, is it the usb port going bad in my phone? It was like this ever since I bought the phone from ATT. Brand new out of the box, with contract.
EDIT: switched Samsung usb cables, and connected right away, no problems. No playing with the cable to try to get it to connect.

That sounds like a hardware defect. Also, try using a different USB cable. How long have you had it?

It may not b the usb port on the phone... I have 2 micro usb to usb cables, one that originally came with my captivate and it has always been loose. The other that I have came with my sgs 2 and it fits real snug in the captivate. ---- So maybe just try a different cable. Worth a try.

Hmm, that is true. The cable I use to flash my phone is a Samsung cable that came with my phone, and it fits a little loose. However, the cable I use to charge my phone fits snug. I haven't tried to connect it to my pc though. I was doing what I read on here, about using Samsung usb cables. So I will try it out, and see if it's the problem. Thanks.
EDIT: That was the problem. The cable is a Samsung, but it's not the cable that came with my phone. But it connects right away, no problems at all. I don't know why I didn't think about that in the first place. Lol. It's always the littlest things that you forget to try. Thank you!

[Q] Multi-purpose OTG?

I'M thinking about getting a nexus 7. Question about it's USB OTG capability: Can it connect to multiple things at once through a USB host? I am thinking the ultimate portable workplace would be a portable keyboard, mouse, a microSD reader, and a charging cable all coming from a single host. Is Android at the point where this sort of thing is possible yet?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
No, currently you can connect to 1 slave usb device, maybe 2 with the use of an Y splitter cable, if at that. Am not sure if it's a software or hardware limitation.

With usb otg cable pluged in usb hub you can connect more devices.

You should know though that while using USB OTG (if i recall correctly) you are not able to charge the N7 at the same time. It is either one or the other.
While using OTG can charging if flash patched kernel.

Thats what I am gonna xo, as soon as my y- cable arrives.
I'm thinking of getting a Bluetooth keyboard

Motorola charging cable

Hello everyone. I have a motoX from Rogers Canada for 3 weeks. The only thing annoys me about this phone is my computer can't recognize the X. I installed the driver, turn on the debug usb, use motorola cable and try on a few computer. But the phone is not even charging nor connecting to computer. I called the supporter and he said that i have to find a brand Motorola cable??! Is anyone having the same problem as me? Pls help. I think is the phone bug and i gotta change a new one.

I don't think you are having a driver issue as you don't need drivers to charge via USB. Have you tried another cable? It sounds like the one you are using may be damaged or worse, the port on your phone.
Does it charge via wall with the same cable?
It charges via the wall charger but it can't connect to any computer with any cable. I don't know what happens.

Get another usb cable and try that first to rule out if it's the cable or your phone that's having issues with connecting/charging via the computer.
I try a few cable but it won't work
From MotoX
Your charging port on your phone is shorting out. This happened to my gnex after 1.5 years
