I need to get a USB to Ethernet adapter working with my HTC One S (T Mobile) and I am really struggling to figure out how to make this work.
I have the Apple USB-Ethernet Adapter, model number MB442.
That does not work inherently with the phone. It does work on my Asus Transformer, but not with the phone. I believe that the chipset in this adapter is the USB AX8817X.
So my question is, do any USB to Ethernet adapters work with the phones out of the box? And if so, which ones?
I'm relatively new to Linux/Android development so I don't know how to figure out if this chipset will work or how to compile and install drivers for it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

ok guys i just wanted to ask a question about the tablet itself, if i'll buy it i'm probably using it also to develop with the arduino adk board.
i don't want to buy the dock so i'll buy the usb adapter to get the usb port, will that adapter be compatible with usb host?
ok i red something about it and i found out that it does so thank you all...
Hi All,
I'm trying to get a USB device connected to my phone (specifically an OBDII reader with Torque Pro). No matter what I do, I can't get it to recognize on my Nexus S 4g. When I run USB Host Diagnostics, it basically says it can't find anything.
I'm running a flavor of Cyanogen 10 with its stock kernal.
My questions are:
Do I need to go through a powered USB hub to get the proper power?
Do I need a specific kernel with the correct host modules enabled? (if so, can someone point me to one)
Thanks,
Torque Pro worked fine with my NS4G with a cheap ebay bluetooth adapter with no hassle. That adapter had no batteries at all, it was powered through the ALDL port on the car. I couldn't imagine needing power since no scanner I know of needs power at the ALDL port, it pulls it from the port itself. I would bet it is USB driver problems, or problems reading the USB adapter through Jellybean because of this new MTP protocol that sucks
Good to know.
Should I try a HoneyComb ROM? I guess it COULD be the OTG cable I got from amazon. Maybe it's not plugging in all the way.
thx

No Honeycomb roms for Nexus S...
I highly suggest a OBDII bluetooth adapter. They're 15$ on the net and will spare you the trouble. Make sure you find one that has good reviews, some cheap ones have problem connecting to some cars because of broken J1850 PWM (i think it's PWM, might be VPW) protocol.
I need help... I am new to Android tablets and operating systems so I apologize if I don't give enough information right from the start and if I am asking too simple of a question. I recently purchased an iRulu 10.1" tablet. I am very happy with it since it does what I purchased it for with one exception... I wanted to use one of the USB ports to connect my USB to 9 pin serial adapter so that I can console into different devices we use at my work. Both ports work since I am able to plug in a mouse or keyboard and both function, but the USB dongle I use on my laptop will not even be recognized on the tablet... Someone please tell me what I am missing. Is it a driver? New USB adapter? Some app? I've tried a few solutions and they have not yielded any positive results. I have installed a couple of apps and they don't even recognize the adapter as being connected. Thank you for any and all assistance!!

I wouldn't expect a usb dongle to work because I don't believe any of the Irulu devices have bluetooth capability from what I understand. I don't know for sure though since I am new to this device. I just got one (Model#: AN101 AllWinner A10 CPU) myself on Thursday and doing the research trying to flash JellyBean onto it for now.
Mine came with it's own USB keyboard/stand combo so I don't expect to need a BT keyboard but they are so nice you never can tell what I may want once I get JB on here.
I just figured I'd post to keep this thread alive for ya and input. Good luck
my android tv setup box does not come with bluetooth, so i bought a dongle and plugged it into the usb port. didn't work.
does anyone know how to do it?
I got the Same Problem...
Is there any posibility to load the drivers as a modul without compiling the whole kernel? And if... May you give me a beginner guide how to do?
Thanks a lot

Any one?
Yeah I'm interested in this have a tab without Bluetooth so thought get a micro USB to female USB cable and plug a dongle in would require drivers though and a app of some sort for access

Bluetooth doesnt work needs drivers i think. But my usb gamepad works on most games, emulators just not on some racing games. Plugs straight in to the otg cable.
Has anyone had success getting a wired Ethernet adapter working on the Note 4? I have some network testing I need to do and I need a hard-line to do it. A few articles point to this adapter by Plugable. I have already tried a trendnet USB3 NIC through an OTG adapter. The switch link-lights come on for a moment the go out quickly.

It's not a Samsung or Note 4 thing, it's an Android thing. Please do some research and use the search feature, as it'll save yourself time and more importantly our time as well.
Get an OTG adapter, then search Google for the apps and info.

Don't ask me for help beyond this, as you shouldn't need it. If you feel like you need help beyond searching, you probably shouldn't be attempting it. Good luck!
OTG is not a problem but Ethernet Usb doesn't seem just related to Android OS.
Many phones are compatible with chipset AX88772, unfortunately Samsung note 4 is not.
