[Q] USB Stick, External Hard Drive Not being detected by TCL Android (4.2) Smart TV - Android General

I've been searching for an answer for this issue, so far no luck
TCL 40 inch Android Smart TV(not Rooted)
2 - USB 2.0 ports
1-USB 3.0 ports
1 2.0 usb camera
I have a 500gb WD(NTFS Format) and a usb stick both are being detected and working as it should when I first got the TV.
Suddenly it is not being detected anymore
Although both lights(External and USB) are blinking and if you touch the hard drive you can feel its running
but when I check the media devices connected its just detecting the SD card.
I tried switching usb ports(including the 3.0) but still not being detected
I use the usb camera to all the usb ports and its being detected
Tried another type of otg cable not detected.
I tried just using the usb stick, still not detected
Tried Factory reset on the Android TV but no helo.
and both(WD and usb stick) are being detected in my laptop, using thesame otg cable.
ES FILE Manager sees the devices but when I open it nothing will show up.
Tried stickmount no go as well
I installed USB host controller
and connect all the usb devices and it sees it
when I go to info(usb host controller)
Im getting S3C USB Host driver NOT Found
Root hub present, USB host mode is Active.
Not sure what that is but I tried searching it no where to download it.
I was configuring Kodi TV on the smart tv before the issue happened
so I decided to uninstall it and did factory reset.
Appreciate the inputs.

[Q] USB OTG Does not work anymore

Hello Gents,
I purchased a USB OTG for my 7+ last week, all was working. the USB drives works, mouse works.
But this morning, when I tried to use the same mouse/usb drives. The tab does not seem to recognized the USB, I can see the LED on the USB blinks for a few moment and then turn off. Like it's getting power but then stop.
I tried the following.
1. reboot the tab. power on , power off. No go.
2. reboot from factory default ( yes it drives me nuts, but I did it anyway) Power Volume Up. Factory reset, data wipe. No go.
3. tried a new OTG USB cable, still does not work.
I had the Tab root before, but after the system reset, it gone back to stock firmware. The only thing I can think of is I did the latest Samsung Patch after my initial test.
When I look at the "dmesg"
s5p-ehci: detected XactErr len 0/8 retry
tspdrv: ImmVibeSPI_ForceOut_AmpEnable (1)
ImmVibeSPI_ForceOut_AMpDisable...
Does anyone have solution for this problem?
Thank
P.S. these are not the OEM Samsung USB cable. But they were working before.
Also, when I plug in an portable external HDD, it does say, High power device not supported.
hi,,,
try to connect all tools to usb otg hub first before you conect it to GTab. i mean if you want to connect a flash disk or a mouse, connect them to the usb otg hub first before connect it to GTab.
for hdd, you have to connect a power supply to usb otg to make it readable on GTab. i use my old nokia charger to power the usb otg hub device.
hope it help and sorry for my bad english.
dan
edit : i use this device as usb otg hub

I have the same error.
I have the same error but when I reboot my Tab, it's ok, before reboot I do not disconnect USB from my tab!You can try!

[Q] Powered USB Hub Setup

I am trying to connect my NVidia Sheild to a powered usb hub with no luck at this point.
Heres what I'm using:
Powered Hub
USB to Ethernet
OTG to USB
Male to Male USB
So I am taking the OTG to USB and connecting it to the Sheild OTG port. From there I have a Male to Male USB connecting the OTG to USB to the Powered usb hub. When I do this I can see that the Sheild's power light is orange which indicates to me that it is getting power and not acting as the USB Host for the Hub?
I did notice when I tried to use an air mouse directly with the OTG to USB it works as it should but not when it's connected to the powered usb hub instead, then nothing works (just charging). Also my ethernet adapter doesnt work via the powered usb hub or the OTG to USB.
BTW this whole physical setup worked just fine (plug and play) with both android MK808 and MK908. I was surprised that the Sheild isnt picking this up as well.
Can anyone tell me if I have incompatable hardware and if so what is compatable? Also I do not have ROOT access to the Sheild...yet, could that be the issue?
Many thanks in advance.

[Q] Arnova 10b G3 OTG with USB HUB problem

Hi!
I have quite strange problem with Arnova 10b G3 tablet.
My OTG works well, if i connect mouse or memorystick. But when i connect usb hub with OTG cable and then connect the same mouse or memorystick to hub, then nothing happens...
I tried two different usb hub with external power and one hub with non external power - all same.
HUB models : D-Link DUB-H4 and USM-124
App "Usb Host Controller" shows that Usb HUB is connected, but why i cannot see any device connected with hub?
In some googeling i founded something about hubenable.ko - when i type command lsmod then it isnt there. hubenable.ko is not also in folder modules.
Can you please help... I need it really to finish my carputer built...
ROM i use : kasty_oma_rk29cm101v121-arn10bg3-422-070-2G

Asus Z380KL Cant switch to MTP

Hello first sorry for my bad english, second i just got an older Asus Z380KL (runing Android 6.0.1 latest update from Asus) and its working fine for the most part. I just cant connect it to my PC (Windows 7/10) using USB. When i plug it in to my PC in device manager i dont see any new device but the Tablet is charging.
The tablet is in charging mode and i cant switch it to MTP. In Setting>Storage there is no option to change the USB mode, i dont get any notification in the pull down bar, in Developer menu i enabled USB debuging and tested the option to switch the USB configuration but if i change to MTP,PTP or RNDIS it always says Charging. I know the USB connector on the tablet is OK just tested my OTG cable and connected a mouse and it was working. Also i used 5 diferent USB cables that work when i try whit my Phone. Also tested all my USB2 and USB3 ports on my PC and laptop.
If anyone can help i wold be very grateful
Edit: Just tried it on Ubuntu 16.04 Live and MTP is working fine, Tablet connects i get the popup in the status bat saying i can pick if i want charging, MTP or PTP but on Windows 7/10 i cant get it to work its always in charging mode and i cant change it.

Computer will not detect tablet!!!

When I plug in my Nvidia Shield K1 into my computer it only charges.....
My old K1 was recognised by my computer immediately before so I don't know why this one won't work?
Please note these things.
1. I have tried a different cable and connector
2. It was purchased second hand and bootloader is already unlocked with TWRP installed.
3. Have installed all necessary drivers on computer
4. Have put tablet into developers mode
5. Have selected MTP on developer options
6. Nothing shows up in device manager
Have you tried with another PC?
Any notification on the Shield, that it has been connected by USB? And if so, select MTP (selecting MTP in Developer's Options doesn't always work on some devices).
You tried other USB ports on the PC? You said you tried another cable and "connector", so maybe by "connector" you mean the USB port on the PC? Also, don't use a hub, connect directly to the USB port on the PC.
If none of this work, and never did on this 2nd hands device, you may have a damaged USB port on the Shield.
Try going to Developer options - Revoke USB debugging authorizations. That has worked for me in the past. I would doing it with the USB disconnected then reconnect.
