Help Guys !
I recently bought Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 which is a 7 inches tab. Can you tell me if there is ANY way by which i can get a Flash Drive/Pen Drive working with it .....I read lot of threads but i am sooo soooo confused if there is something that this STUPID tab supports.
Please Help me
If it can work on rooting or if there is some accesories i can buy to make it working .
Hope to get quick response. Please guide. !

Hi, you can get a OTG cable (Micro Usb Male 5Pin to USB 2.0 A Female Converter Adapter) for Tab 3 7'', so that you can read your Flash Drive/Pen Drive.
Don't purchase mhl to HDMI adapter for your tab, tab 3 7.0 is not the MHL-enabled device.

Hi i have read on internet that Tab 3.0 which is 7 inches wont let me connect to flash drive Can you tell me from where to buy this cable and does it really work.. Please share the link
Thanks so much for response
dosen't work for me, seems samsungs didn't put that feature in our samsung tab grrrrr
It is tab 210 not t200 so this will not work.
Try this. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...ASIN=B00AQUMZRA&linkCode=as2&tag=twildottv-20
Might work, the extra battery might be nice.

Hi everyone,
I am willing to buy one of this new kandies - Galaxy tab 10 inch. My question is whether it will support usb host capabilities or not. It is very crucial for my buying/or not decision that I can connect external hd drive so i can carry with me my music and my movies when on vacation.
Please let me know if this capability will be inherent or there is a passthrough.
If not any other suggestions for another tablet?
Thanks in advance
None of the tablets that were announced spoke of USB host as a feature. It's ridiculous!!
Why they keep ignoring it is beyond me. Only tablet I've seen so far with this feature is the Notion Ink Adam
Does anyone think that this is a honeycomb issue? Maybe an update in honeycomb will work things out?
im sure it will via that usb connector thing

If honeycomb (and pressumably Galaxy tab 10) support usb host mode then maybe the solution is as follows

The xoom also has USB host capability
Acer Iconia Tab has a full sized USB port and has host mode. The new 10.1 and 8.9 Samsung tabs do not.
My galaxy note version Is Indian and i think they have disabled OTG on Indian version. Is the any way to enable it for eg using a custom firmware? or any thing else? OR IS IT TOTALLY DISABLE FROM HARDWARE?
PLEASE HELP ME GUYS I NEED IT VERY BADLY FOR MY STUDIES.
Same problem...please help
what have you tried?
Only certain things can be connected.
If it is a memory stick, just connect it and it should show up in Myfiles as USB storage.
its working on galaxy note Indian version. just get a OTG usb cable from ebay.in and it will work for sure. i also got one from thr and it worked very very well. Cost is around 250-300 rs only. dont get cheap ones. search for galaxy note in search option and then go in accessories.

Format your pen drive to Fat 32. It might not work if it's NTFS.

In my case, you must connect the pendrive to the otg cable before connecting it to the phone else it wont work.

The Original 7inch galaxy tab never had official support for the usb adapter. The newer versions (7.7, plus) and 10.1 and 8.9 do.
At the moment it seems the only way to get the tab to read usbs, is with a ROM with the usb capable kernal (ICS roms seem to be the only ones that support USB host)
Even then, you need to have the same set up as this because the tab can't supply an external power source itself, hence the need of external power. It's far less elegant than a single adapter like the 10.1 option.
Okay, posted several times on Q&A forum and had no luck there so I am trying here. My s3 mhl adapter that I have been using to play games etc. Via the note 2 stopped working from one day from another. It says "hdmi cable connected" when I plug in my note 2, but i get no picture nor sound. I tryed it with my friends s3 and it works. It had been working fine for about 2 weeks before it randomly stopped working.

You may need a new mhl adapter. Just in case, make sure the power adapter is plugged in to the mhl adapter while you plug it into the note 2. I had an mhl adapter for the evo 3d and found out the one for the note 2 is different. From my understanding the s3 one should work on the note 2. Have you tried it on another note 2? That may be difficult for you unless you know a friend who has one. Let us know if you figure it out. I'm still trying to figure out which one to buy on amazon.

Thanks for the reply. Ive tried everything possible and what ive come to think is that it must be software related. Unfortunetly i do not have a friend with a note 2 to try it out. Im going to my friends house to try allshare though (he has a samsung tv) and maybe ill get the dongle instead. I still would want the mhl adapter to work though so i dont need to spend more money.

Okay just found out mhl might not work with root. I used exynosabuse to root my device. That might be the issue. Anyone have a solution?
I use Samsung's MHL adapter to HDMI for my Samsung Plasma in my living room. I Use it to watch my Movies from the computer on the big screen etc. The first day it worked great but after a few days use It cuts in and out every so often. Not sure if its cause the frames are to slow or what? But if you find an MHL adapter for an S3 it WILL work for the Galaxy Note 2... If you check on samsungs site the part #'s for the two are the exact same for all models of S3 (there are like 3-5 models) not only is the part number the same for all those and the note 2. But if you are really anal you can click the link at the bottom of the description that says all compatible models. And the Note 2 will be listed there as well.:good:
Sv: S3 MHL Adapter
You don't need to unroot but you need to start ExynosAbuse and deselect the disable exploit options.

Hi,
Does anyone have experience on using the adapter which can output the screen through HDMI and use USB keyboard/mouse? I did some research but still have questions on it. Hope I can get some help here.
1. The product page says it does not support the root ROMs, so that means any custom ROMs cannot use it?
2. Some people said the adapter was working using Andorid 4.1 but stopped working on 4.3.
[Update]
1. I got mine and it worked with the Alliance ROM (Android 4.3, rooted).
2. Works with 4.3.
Here is the one I found on Amazon:

A thread about this has already been opened. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458812
check that one out. I bought this but it didn't seem to work for my note 2. But it worked for my sisters S4. I think phones port is loose so I get glitches when using it. U can also try searching for Samsung smart dock. Buy the official one, it's 61 dollars though :/.
Use the search next time lol

I saw this one but it's different. That's a dock and my link is the adapter. Maybe S4 has 5pin and note 2 has 11pin?

Oh OK I see what you mean. Um I believe so I'd how many pins each has. I forgot haha...and to answer your original questions it says that it does not support root roms but it does. It says that because some roms(AOSP based) don't have the hdmi working.
Android 4.1 worked as long as it was touch wiz. I have a 4.3 room and it works on the dock but it glitches,lags. I have an mhl adapter and it worked better. As long as you're using a touchwiz rom it should work..

Received the adapter today. It works well with HDMI output to my computer's monitor. I didn't experience any lag as some users stated.
I have the wireless mouse/keyboard, and they work at the same time when HDMI is plugged. The "back" button on the mouse works but for zooming you have to use your phone's screen (yes, the screen is turned off but still receive commands).
My 2 cents: the micro USB to the phone could be broken easily, so always connect everything else to the adapter first then plug to the phone. And unplug from the phone first before remove others. My HDMI port is hard to plug in but still works.
