Is it possible to connect external webcam to GNOTE?

Is it possible to connect external webcam to GNOTE (Microsoft life cam studio)
I have heard since ICS it should be possible to connect usb devices as on a PC.

Might be possible but im guessing it would need an external powersource and a dev with lots of spare time

I have a project that I have been wanting to try using this but I have not gotten around to it. You have to build a custom kernel. The big question is can you charge the Note while in host mode? Normally in host mode the note is supplying current. If you have to supply current the whole time your camera is in operation, that is a serious hit to battery life.

That looks cool, but it is dissapointing that it would not be easier,if you ask me, this a huge flaw in android as an operative system, every operative system you can connect usb devices nowdays. And for webcams, you do not even need specific drives also... a general driver of course, not all functionality would work.
I hope for android 5.0 it will be more plug and play..when it comes to usb devices...
So yeah, I guess there is no easy solution to get the camera to work on my mobile. it would be nice to be able to record with it outside, cause the zoom is very superior compared to the Galaxy note camera, and both are 1080p, but the lifecam also have zoom.

Same interest here. Been trying googling about this but no luck. Anyone from xda able to do this?

I assume it would work, You would obviously need an OTG cable, But i dont see why you want a webcam on the phone ? It has a FFC (which isnt great but...)
I managed to get my phone to work as a webcam for my PC, Doubt it will be as easy to do it the other way tho !

Nope was just wondering since we can connect thumbdrive..thought to try out the webcam

Guys at least show me some directions where should look to find answer regarding this.. been googling and filtering through the Forum

I still think even its detected, we may need an API for the webcam to work.

Will it work on the GNote 2 is the question though.

I have one from the 5 pack and it works perfectly fine on my Galaxy Note 2. That being said, they should all work fine.

Why wouldn't it? Micro-usb is micro-usb.

I brought the official samsung HDMI adaptar for my s3, can anyone confirm if it works with note2? I know there were pin differences with s2 and s3 adaptors.

I have the new adaptor here. Will check shortly and let you know.
I'm pretty sure it uses the same one as the galaxy s3 as I saw a video.of.someone using.it.

as these USB-OTG cables allow you to connect USB devices to you're phone. the standard things will be a flash drive, keyboard, mouse. now about drivers in android. what else can you do with this? connect an USB-IR receiver? USB IO box?(serial) USB to RJ45? DVB-T receiver?
This would make a nice addition to the list of working cables, the functions of USB-OTG on the NOTE II!

Samsung USB-OTG cables for Galaxy Note works on Galaxy Note2 too. It doesn't seem to do the same the Samsung MHL/HDMI cable for Galaxy Note. Can someone confirm it?

I heard that Samsung MHL/HDMI cable for SGS3 works with Note2, don´t know about the one with original Note.
Dirt-cheap ebay usb-microusb cables never worked for me on SGS1, only good for charging.
Good idea this thread

so I got a otg usb cable for an external hdd. and obviously it doesn't work because the hdd format is ntfs. anyone know how to make your note 2 device read ntfs external hdds?

kernel support is needed to read NTFS partitions natively. if you have root you could try the NTFS mounters for OTG available in the play store.

What HD formats does it actually read natively? Just FAT32?

not to sure about this, but i believe exfat, fat32, and it would seem likely to support ext3/ext4.
my Note II will arrive by friday if i'm lucky. so can't verify what i'm saying.

Havent met a single bug so far!! No FCs at all .. Its rock stable , fast and smooth

Does NFC work in CM?

does Cm10.1 has mass storage mode?
I don't want MTP mode, because mass storage mode is the only mode that allows me to use software t sync the folders in my computer with those in SD card or internal SD.
Because of this concern, I have to use official 4.12 rom plus UMS app for mass storage mode.
And removing the SD card at least 2-3 times a day for syncing file is one of the most stupid idea.

Yes, it does.
Edit: The reply was for the first question. It only has MTP and camera mode.

I didn't have a single problem on CM10.1 RC2, tried RC3, RC4, RC5, and the stable build released yesterday, and they all have problems with Wi-Fi / Data connection.

Actually it's rock solid, no nfc no lag what so ever....I don't had problems with wifi or data connection....it's actually really smooth so yeah, CM took it's time but it's worth it...

Damn, MHL is still rotated. I'll have to go back to stock. OMG. Is there any workaround to make MHL output work fine with CM 10.1?

Same thing happened to me. The note 3 Micro usb port is just a little deeper so the plug needs to be inserted further. Rocketfish sells an adapter with their new HDMI module. I was thinking about shaving a little more plastic off around the Micro usb connector so I didn't need the adapter but I never got around to it. If you try it let me know if it works.

I'm pretty sure Note 2 and 3 are both MHL 2.0. all I am saying is The plug needs to go in farther on Note 3 than Note 2 so you might be able to shave a little plastic off to make it go in a little farther.

I purchased a mhl adapter from best buy and it works fine for me.

We went with "android on a stick". We can beam ANYTHING to our tv wirelessly. Another app works great as a mouse\keyboard for it.
And you don't have to worry about cables no longer being compatible when you change phones.

Amazon prime video not working

Hi Guys,
For an unknown reason, Amazon prime video doesn't seem to want to work on my Note 8 (works flawlessly on other android and Samsung devices I have). Everytime I start a video I get an errorstating "Decryption failure".
Another thread in the S7 forum suggested renaming a system file but I'm not rooted and don't intend to for the moment.
Anybody else seeing the same behaviour ?
Any solution not requiring root ?
Thanks

Google Play suggests updating to 3.0.212.4841 (22nd of september) but i'll keep with the Samsung approved one until I figure out why it didn't function properly.

Hi Guys,
After a month of testing, I isolated my problem : Amazon Prime Video works perfectly well on my Galaxy Note 8 alone. Problems start when I try to use the HMDI connection : I want to watch my movies on a big screen using the USB-C to HDMI cable. It works perfectly well with everything else, but systematically causes an error with Amazon Prime Video latest updates. Only by reverting to very old apk versions am I able to use it with HMDI connection.
Any ideas ,
Thanks

I tried everything and downloaded one from Galaxy app store as well. It still doesn't work on my note 8. Please help. I just bought a one year subscription

Just checked casting, get sound but no video. b.s. copyright sh*t !?
Older version worked casting to chrome cast. But using screen mirroring to Samsung TV got video, but audio on phone not tv, which might be nice for night time viewing.

Works fine on my Note 8.

I just got the Note 8 and Prime Video only works about half the time. The other half, it spins like it's loading but never loads. The interesting thing is that all other video streaming apps become unresponsive as well (Hulu, YouTube, ect) after Prime Video. Any solutions so far? I'm using version 3.0.205.34141

I'm in the same situation as the OP. I eventually got HDMI-out working on my Galaxy S8 (5-yr old phone) with a very old prime video APK, and possibly (I can't remember) doing the file rename mentioned at this XDA thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/amazon-prime-video-decryption-failure.3603573/page-2
2 problems:
A.) When mirroring to a TV via HDMI on the Galaxy S8 (phone), the resolution and color of the video playing are worse on the TV than on the phone (example, I'll have downloaded full HD content, like 4GB for a movie, and it will look fantastic (like 1080P or better) playing on the phone, but looks noticeably worse (like 240p or maybe 480) on the TV. .... because of this, I purchased Samsung's newest tablet, with confirmed HDMI-out ability.
B.) So, on the Galaxy Tab S8 (Tablet --latest samsung tablet in 2022), I'm getting the "decryption_error" message as soon as I connect to a TV via HDMI cable. I don't plan to root it, so can't rename that file referred to in the other thread..
Questions:
1. Are others seeing the poor resolution after going to the trouble of getting HDMI-out working? (as in #A above).
2. Did others have any luck fixing the "decryption error" by changing to a newer HDMI cable? (changing cables sounds fishy, and this answer found elsewhere on the internet is the amazon helpdesk equivalent of 'reboot the computer')
Please let me know. I may go to the trouble rooting the tablet, but only if others have gotten HDMI-out at full, HD/UHD resolution to a TV.
