[Q] Using HDMI adapter and USB Hub at same time? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, i was wondering if there is a way to connect our xz to tv trough hdmi and playing videos from hard drive at same time. I've got samsung hdmi adapter, wd elements hdd and xbox controller reciever. If I connect ac powered usb hub (with phone connected trough micro usb cable, my hdd and reciever plugged in) to hdmi adapter as power source, will this work? I know that usb hub has got power to feed 6 hdds
So please, every answer will be appreciated

Micro usb in USB hub, HDMI in power connector? HDMI will work only if you connect it directly to the phone. Can you draw what you mean?

There will not be enough power, you need hub with ac adapter.

yep, i am going to buy this one: www.transcend-info.com/Products/No-402
And i was thinking, that maybe it will not be able to detect hdd and this stuff, because it wont be connected through USB otg.

Connecting phone to PC via USB cable *without* charging?

Hi all - does anyone know if it's possible to connect the N1 to a PC (to do adb, shell etc) without charging the battery? Reason for question is, I am trying to do some kernel/configuration benchmarking and do not wish to skew the battery usage/uptime figures too much! (fairly theorhetical question, I guess, as I realise accessing the N1 via USB could itself use battery)
I don't believe there is a way to do that. the only way I could think of is to get a usb that can only transfer data and not a charge for the battery.

Cut up your USB cable and clip the wire attached to pin 1.
Caveat: I haven't tried this but it's certainly possible.
There is such a thing as un-powered usb ports. However, I believe the name is misleading, as in reality they are simply low powered (if memory serves correctly). However, it might be worth looking into if you can't successfully clip the power as in the previous post.

An unpowered USB hub will still pass power. It just gets a maximum of 5v from the computer so you can't power multiple devices that actually need any substantial amount of power.
A powered USB hub just makes sure that all of the ports get their full 5v.

[Q] Need Help with USB OTG Cable please !!!

Hi all
I have samsung galaxy S i9000 and I have bought a chinese USB OTG adaptor that said on the cover it is for:
Samsung i9100/i9220/ Motorola Droid etc
Nokia C6/C3/C7/N8/X3/E7
it has a 5 pin as I think because I see 5 pins in the micro usb and the cable fits perfectly in micro usb of my mobile,
the picture of the cable is exactly similar to this

Now I'm on rooted stock version of GB 2.3.3 JPJV6 and I have installed the kernel of "USB Host mode driver for Samsung Galaxy S (i9000) "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450298"
I am using OTG cable and the latest "USB Host Controller" app (Ver 0.44)
When the OTG cable is plugged in I am getting a message :
"root hub present, USB host mode is active" and I keep pressing on Refresh button but no matter what I am plugging in, I get nothing (can't detect the flash memory).
As far as I know this component does not need an extra power and it should work when plugged in into the OTG cable, and I know that the usb on my galaxy s can't give power to the thing that is connected unlike the galaxy S2.
What thing can I plug in, that don't need an external power source?
What else do I need to make the OTG cable work and read a flash memory or anything else?
Do I need a powered hub for everything or what please help !
Could any one help me
60 views and no one have the answer !
Because most people never use the host mode feature, myself included.

use keyborad and mouse with USB host Support

hi all. my HP TP can support usb host ?
i want to use keyboard and mouse usb. my android version is: cm-9-20121230-NIGHTLY-tenderloin
yes it supports USB Host, but you need something to power the Keyboard/Mouse (like a USB Hub)
Touchpad -> USB Cable -> Powered USB Hub -> Mouse/Keyboard

after that my mouse LED's is off and not work for me!!
You need a Y cable with 2 male USB ports and 1 female, 1 male goes to power source and the other in the OTG cable (from TP) and the female for Mouse/KB or what you are putting in, (easiest method)

I'm using this cable ( http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B008PAW41U/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00 )
and this USB Hub ( http://www.amazon.de/LogiLink-4-Por...1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1358473565&sr=8-2-fkmr0 )
This is working with:
Touchpad -> OTG Cable -> Hub (powered) -> Mouse

I understand Note can charge devices such as my Bluetooth micro USB earphones, however i am straggling to get right cable i.e. micro USB to micro USB and perhaps an adaptor on Note 8 to convert it to C type.
Anyone done what i am trying to do?

Normally you only need to use the included OTG adapter. Connect it with your note 8 and connect a normal USB cable (USB to micro USB) with the device you want to charge. It should be automatically begin to charge the other device. Maybe you need to pull down the statusbar and tap the "android system charging" notification and tap it. Then it should open the menu you will see on my second screenshot. Select the last entry "charge connected device" and there you go. It should be charge the connected device
