[Q] OTG while Charging GCam - Galaxy Camera Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, any idea if this will work? Saw some otg with power from ebay. Read in nexus 7 forum that they were able to do it, was hoping it will also work with our device, but i think they used a custom kernel to be able to work, does stock samsung kernel supports this?
Im planning to makr my GCam a mini pc

i don't know if this will work... but i can tell you that my sgcam works perfectly with the logitech k260 keyboard and mouse and a full-hd-flatscreen via hdmi. unfortunately i was not able to make a usb-ethernet-adapter working via otg-cable. please tell me if you found a way to charge the sgcam with otg-cable connected...

Sad to say it didnt work for me, i think we need to compile the kernel to enable it and make our own cable by adding 40.2k ohm resistors on ID pin

Micro USB to HDMI Adapter

The razr i has only got a micro usb port you probably know...
Somewhere i heard it would be possible via an adapter to get hdmi signal out of this port...
Can soneone guide me to one of those adapters or is one already shipped with the device?
Thanks

One is not shipped with the device, but if the USB does support HDMI out that would be fun to try for inclusion in other mods.
You'll need to know if the razr i is MHL compliant. If not you should not be able to have HMDI output on the microUSB.
If so, you'll just need a MHL adaptator, something like this:

EDIT: Cancelled.
Apparently it doesn't work on the M, so I'd be surprised if it worked on the i. It will be cool if it does, though.
it does haves a dock app do ,and somewhere in manual and info papers that comes with the phone, you can read several statements that point to a dock port

Hi Robert,
Do you own a PS3, XBox or Apple Tv????
The reason I ask is because if you download app called 'DoubleTwist' from google play store this consolidates all of your music and videos into one application instead of having seperate apps for each.... Once you have this downloaded and all your content on you can download there paid app called 'AirTwist' for double Twist.
once you have these 2 seetings you can wirelessly send your videos and music over any wifi network to a Playstation 3, Apple Tv or Xbox and no need to have cables lying round and probably costs the same if not less than buying the cable!
Hope this helps and if so please don't forget to press the Thanks Button on the left under my user name

Nexus 7 with external webcam

Hello researcher,
Any one tried Nexus 7 with external camera with the help of OTG cable? or is there any way to achieve it?
Murali
Welcome to the forum, murali.trichy.
I'd be interested in knowing the answer to your question too.
I've been curious about this as well. It was done quite a while ago on the Nexus S but required a specific firmware mod and some command line work to get the drivers to properly recognize the camera.

Hm. I'm thinking HD rear camera case
Actually I would like to see a backup camera for in dash mounting

Anyone figure this out yet?
is there any progress with this issue? i'm really looking for a solution for the rear view cam when mounted in dash.

[Q] would OTG cable work ?

Hi everyone. I want to buy Fire HD, but reason why i didn't done this yet is that i need to connect my MicroSD to it. I know i can do it by OTG cable, but default Kindle doesn't support it.
Would it be real, if i flash Kindle to CM10 (when it be realesed) ? I read that OTG is supported by kernel ICS and JB .
Thanks for answers
I really want to know this as well.

If this queston would see someone who already flash his fire HD to beta CM10 and try to do this :highfive:
I was looking through the source from amazon awhile ago and the drivers appear to be there, its just turned off in the current kernel. Admittedly I really know nothing about compiling anything, but it looks like it might be doable at some point in the future.

USB OTG with charging?

Anyone had any luck with these cables? Specifically using an external DAC while still powering the phone. It's possible on my Nexus 7 with a custom kernel.

I am using one of these cables, but in a different manner, ie I am accessing a WD Passport 1TB external drive. (does not have ac in) Both my drive is powered AND my phone is charged. (tried using both a 10kmAh external battery pack as well is direct AC adapter.
Know it's not exactly the setup you are using, but as far as cables go, the phone seems to work well with this setup. YMMV

If I may ask, where did you get the cable? The only one I found so far is on Amazon and review there say that it will not charge the phone, just the external device.

Got the same cable and its not working, do we need a special kernel to make it work?
Sent from my GT-N8000 using xda app-developers app
On my Nexus, I did have to flash the right kernel. I'm guessing that will have to happen here too.
Why not make a cable that will charge and otg

Just an update. I ordered one of these http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=261170130579&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=87388073446
Should have it next week to test but based on the seller's description and testing on similar devices, sounds promising. I'll report back.
I have just bought it.
Initially USB hosting works, but I have no chance to charge at this time.
-----update-----
The female micro USB jack does not charge the phone like the one for Galaxy Tab.
Do you think we still need to add a 40.2k ohm resistor just in the galaxy s3 and will a stock kernel work?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I would like to add I managed to get an OTG + charging cable working for the Note 2 (N7100) using a cable made with these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953061
But... the 4.1.2 update stopped the USB from working on my Note 2, and someone else is reporting a similar problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38611244&postcount=42 . What happens is the Note 2 does detect it's using a dock, but the USB functionality doesn't work for some odd reason (even after a reboot).
I will reply again if it starts working in a future update.

Probably the same as the s3 - shorted pins = otg+no charging, resistor fools the phone into thinking it has an accessory/dock that can charge safely.

It sees that it's in a "dock" but nothing I plug in will work. It does charge though. If I short out the pins I get host mode, but no charging. This is with the Jedi rom, not stock.

Has anyone tried usb otg hub?

Has anyone tried to use one of the otg hubs? I'm looking on eBay the one's with usb sd card reader hdmi and usb they say for Samsung but I don't see why they wouldn't work for the Z. I was just asking if anyone has tried? If so how does it work?
