[Q] Charging tablet + using USB-connected peripherals - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition and I wanted to use a traditional keyboard and mouse when I was working at home; however, the battery drains very quickly. Is there a way that I can do this AND have it charging through my OTG cable and powered USB hub?
I've been searching around and almost every response said that the tablet must be rooted. I was perfectly happy keeping it stock, but I wanted to have this functionality, so I found this and rooted it successfully.
Can somebody please walk me through step-by-step on what I should do next?
I would really appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance!

Someone? Anyone?

[Q] USB Charging

Hello!
I've recently acquired a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Wifi (GT-P5110).
I was wondering if there's any way to enable USB charging (connected to the computer) instead of only charging through wall socket?
Thanks in advance!
It's charging from the USB, but very slowly (and can't keep up if you use the tablet). The USB charging works better if you shutdown first.

I see.
I've also read people saying that using custom roms (CM9 among them) it does charge and stops showing the cross over the battery symbol on the notification bar.
They claim that the kernel is customized so that the tablet is able to draw more power from the USB instead of the regular 500mA.
Is there any confirmed truth to this? Is it worthy? Doesn't it risk frying the USB/Connector controller on the tab?
Thanks.
Cable to charge Tablet
I also read in several places that you can use a special cable to perform the charging function. It is a Samsung P1000 adapter that has a switch on it to switch between charging and data. I've ordered one, I'll update regarding its performance when I receive it.

it's fake & hoax
Do you have root ? What ROM and kernel are you using ?

The Galaxy Tab 10.1 stock only allows you to charge via USB Wall charger which is rated at 2 amps, here's how to hack it for any rooted Galaxy Tab 10.1 running Pershoot kernel so you can charge it via USB on your computer or even regular USB chargers.

Good luck !
You used to be able to fiddle with the USB charger and jiggle it about so it would charge via USB but an update got rid of that function ( ok more like a sneaky malfunction).,,,please note that i was running a STOCK based ROM on my SGT2 7 and not your device. Romswell was the author of the ROM and as i said it was for my tab , not sure if he caters for your device.
Charge while the phone is off.
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda app-developers app
I can confirm that CM9 and CM10 let you charge over USB, but it will only charge a useful amount when the screen is off.

[Q] Charging Problem

Hello Everybody , I have a Tablet Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 N8010 . In fact my Tablet is charging slowly and when i connect with the usb cable my computer does not recognize the Tablet . Somebody can help me
Are you using original cable ?
Long cable tend to be slow charing
I just received my Note 10.1, a used one with 3m length cable, and same as you, not recognized by the pc, I ordered shorter one on ebay
Also not sure Galaxy charging works for this tablet, but it's less than 0.5A when using this cable, sooo....
i had a problem like this.
Use the original cable, or a usb 3.0

[Q] MHL not working on i337 running 4.4.2

I have lurked on this board for years and have gleaned lots of great information in that time. Thanks for the work you all do.
I am experiencing a connectivity issue with MHL on my S4 - i337
I have an MHL cable that I purchsed from monoprice. This cable works flawlessly with my older SGH S2X (T989D) and my Tab 2 8" (T310). For the cable to work on the Tab 2 8" I use the 11 - 5 pin adapter, while the S2X works without the 11 - 5 pin adapter. I'm pretty sure that the S4 should use the 11 - 5 pin adapter, but no matter what I try, I can't get it to work (I have tried it with and without the adapter, and plugged in not plugged in to the USB power)
I'm wondering if there is an issue with the built in "All share" app as it always turns my wifi on when I try to screen mirror.
Any thoughts or if anyone else has experienced this, please do help!

Simultaneous USB Host and Charge

I am looking for an adapter similar to this one that can provide sufficient power to charge my N8000 whilst it is connected to a fingerprint scanner via powered USB hub (that powers the scanner).
I am trying to make one myself following this thread, however it is for the Galaxy Tab 7.7 and I would prefer a more elegant solution if possible. I also doubt it is going to work with my electronics skills, as I can't find a breakout board like the one used in the thread!
Any ideas/help is appreciated!

Charging on OTG note 5 help. :(

Hello! I am using Samsung Galaxy (SM N920S) * Note 5 running Marshmallow 6.0.1 (rooted) and I am facing a trouble using the Y OTG cable (the one with OTG Input and charging at the same time). The Y OTG cable works fine as a regular OTG cable but it is not charging. Since note 5 comes with a very limited and unextendable memory storage so it would be nice if I will be able to connect my USB pen drive with it to watch movies and charge at the same time. I have searched over the Internet and came across a lot of things which are really confusing like the resistor values of the OTG cables.. but I believe that it is some sort of thing to be configured in the kernel.
So my question is is there any patch or method or application that would let me enable charging on OTG mode for Note 5 for my specific phone model? This is something which I really need to play movies and to make up my TWRP backups since I could not keep that in my phone because of the low storage capacity.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.. please be detailed, step by step way cuz I am a noob.. please also provide the links if I have to download any sort of application or custom patches for kernals for my specific phone model..
Thank u
Any helps??
