[Q] Wireless Broadband USB - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is is even possible to plug in a wireless broadband card/USB into a WiFi only Note 10.1?

No I does not detect I tried it once but did not work I think the drivers of the usb are not pre installed you can try it no harm in doing that to check whether it is detected

I saw an app that allows you to use it. I'll look for it.
Maybe this

Yes should work but you need to be rooted as it needs to install kernel files as per play page I guess those are the usb drivers

Thanks for the tips and information.

USB Tether GUI for Stock Firmware (Non-Rooted)

Hello all. I have an early Christmas present for all the Stock firmware users.
I have created a usb tethering application that should work for all Android devices regardless of root access. The code is and will always be GPL. I used the azilink android app written by aziwoqpd--> http://forum.xda-develoers.com/showthread.php?t=481162
I have to give him lots of credit, because without his app this would not work.
This has been tested on the G1 and the Motorolla Droid. It should work on the Hero, MyTouch(Confirmed working), etc... The GUI should install and work on all versions (x86, x86_64) of Windows starting with XP.
The GUI that I have written controls the adb port forwarding and openvpn connection while showing status. Please test this application and let me know how it goes.

has anyone tried this
So your telling me this is "wifi tether" for non rooted users?

Nope. This is USB Tether for non rooted users
Link is down for azilink, use this link instead for more information:
http://code.google.com/p/azilink/
Confirmed working on Windows 7, and doesn't require root.
Edit: The zip in original post contains the GUI, the apk, and open vpn. Start the apk, then click "connect" on the azilink-gui. Make sure "USB debugging" is enabled in Settings on your phone.
Thanks a lot.

Wifi tether and USB tether are two totally different methods of tethering.
Wifi tether doesn't utilize the usb cable to tether.

USB Tether requires the device to be connected to the Computer via USB.
Wifi tether allows users to wirelessly connect to your device via their Computer.

I see, so say I want to put this on my girlfriends Mytouch, does she NEED ADB installed on her PC?

ADB is included in the azilink-gui installer. The only thing you will need to do manually is install the driver which is included in the install directory.

Download ADB from here:
http://azilink.googlecode.com/files/adb.zip
I'm not sure if ADB is built into the azilink-gui, so it's safe to just install it on your girlfriend's PC.

Good to hear that pdanet solved your problems. For general information, in Ubuntu USB tethering works without any third party app. Just make sure that USB debugging is switched off
(Settings->Applications->Development->USB debugging), connect with USB cable and open Network Manager in the computer.

My First Android App

I am working on building my first Android app, this app will allow me to use my phone with a USB device that will let my phone work as a remote for my TV.
I have already build my GUI layout and database, and they seem to be running good on my Note 2.
I am now stuck on trying to figure out how to connect this device to my phone.
The device I have is the USB IR Toy 2, here is the link
dangerousprototypes.com/docs/USB_Infrared_Toy
Any help is welcome, I am using the Android SDK to build this app.
Once I am done I will post my code here for you all to use as you wish.
no responses?
Is this not possible?

What I know is that usb otg can only be done on certain chipsets, as for code source, I have no idea.

Assuming that the note 2 supports USB Otg stock, You could just simply purchase a usb otg cable for it and work from there.
OK I got my device to connect to my phone, I even made it where when I connect my device it launches my app, but I am having issues with getting my phone to talk to my serial USB device.
Anyone have a idea how to do this?

Otg funtionality....

So i got a bunch of on the go cables. And wanted to see what the stylus could do.
So far ive hooked a 160 gb otg hard drive. Works decently.
2. Ps3 control for gaming.
3 flash drives. Of coarse this works.
4. Usb ob2 interface for scanning automobile ecus. Works better than g4 if i might add.
5. A old logitech wingman joystick. Works on some flight simulators.
I also ordered a while back a fastboot cable for my kindle. When i plug in on ms631 from power off no commands needed boots straight to fastboot mode
Im gonna make a pair of vr goggles prob this weekend and see if this screens good enough for vr. Did it on my g3 and g4. And it was killer
How did you get you're OTG to function? I plug in a 8gb flash drive to mines and it doesn't work for me I'm using the T-Mobile version MM.
Nothing its reading natively. Try stick mount.
Ive been reading about loads of people haveing problems with it im looking for a fix.
But the phone most def supports otg verriefied from more than one site

Has anyone figured out how to get OTG to work on the T-mobile LG G Stylo with Marshmallow? Mine has the latest stock 20c software (H63120c). I use OTG with my FLIR One Android, my SDRPlay, and my RTL-SDR stick, and it would be sad if I have to still use my old Xperia Z for all that.

This page seems to say that adding the file android.hardware.usb.host.xml to /system/etc/permissions will enable USB host mode. Has anyone tried adding this file to a T-Mobile or Metro PCS Marshmallow phone? I haven't rooted my T-mobile Marshmallow phone yet, but I will if I root access will allow me to enable OTG.

Update: Has anyone with T-mobile or MetroPCS Marshmallow and root tried this app, or manually making the changes that this app applies, to see if it will get OTG to work: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tauruslabs.usbhostcheck

So i was able to get OTG support enabled on the device but the phone doesnt send enough power to the micro usb so you would need an otg y cable to add external power supply like a portable battery

Well i was able to enable the host api by following the url you shared...after you edit those files connect your otg y cable, flash drive and external power to your phone and see what it does...im still trying to get mine to actually mount the drive...let me know if you can figure anything out

I haven't rooted mine yet, but I might now that it might be possible to enable OTG.
I gave up, and got a used "mint" LG V20 for cheap, which has OTG support built in. My LG G Stylo will be used by someone who has no idea what OTG is.
Besides "usb.host" to your permissions xml's, setprop "sys.usb.configfs=1" & "sys.usb.config=*" in dev options must be set right. Init.qcom.usb.rc told me what I needed to get mtp & adb working together.

Cannot access phone storage on PC.

My OnePlus 7 Pro acts as Read-Only when I plug it in.
I noticed there is a folder in the OnePlus 7 Pro that has a Driver executable which installs the necessary drivers and I run that fine.
But that doesnt do anything and I cannot access my phone storage at all, that OnePlus folder with the drivers is all that shows up every time.
Yes I change it to "File Transfer", yes Ive tried all USB ports and even different UCB cables and cords. Going into device manager it seems windows is being a clown and cant seem to understand the drivers. Ive attached some pictures to show what I get.
Im honestly lost at this point as to what to do. Please help.
What does my computer show? Isn't it right there called storage D? If not right click run as admin and reinstall drivers and restart, plug phone in and choose file transfer..it may or may not pop up right away that's why need look at my computer

Thats my 4TB PC storage drive, not the phone. Ive installed the drivers as admin, done everything I can think of and still what you see in the screens is what Ive been getting.
Have you tired running both setups?

Yea I tried that and I get that "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (code 31). I mentioned that in my initial post and have a picture of it.
Are you using a USB cable that supports data transfer? The original cable from OnePlus that came with your device as an example.

Have you tried the PTP option?
I've had several phones that, for whatever reason, the files couldn't be seen unless I used PTP instead of the File Transfer option.
