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??

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.

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.

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.
Hi Everyone!
So i've being looking for a diagram or something that might be as helpful for Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3100.

i've seen some for tab 7 with similar info
pinout info is generally the same for all the tabs.
so the question is : who can help me, and i guess a lot of other people with this ))
Make this world a better place by helping me to integrate this tablet into my car
Cheers

well, i've done it without the audio(have not tried it yet) i'm trying to find a breakout board somewhere in europe and try it again.
I've used the thread called make your own cables. just search for it here o the forum.
one thing i want to add is that for whatever reason the flash drive would not remount with the setup that i had if you reboot the tablet while flash drive is plugged in and on some other occasions as well.
once ill find the board ill try it again and with audio (u need the board cos the standard sync cable does not have all the pins in it (( )
atm i simply charge normally and use SD card extender cable and SD card for storage
Cheerio

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

Hello, im a 16gb opo owner so i always carry my flash drives everywhere. I kept data in there. So, i realy sucks my battery. Anyone know how do i charge n use otg at the same time? Ive been reading about otg y cable. But will it work coz some claim charge with otg was not defaultly enable to android devices. Idk. Maybe so kernel mod will make it usable. Can any1 verify this?
I've now purchased THREE USB OTG straight cables (not Y) that did not work with my Shield Tablet... Is there some sort of trick i don't know about? Some special kind of OTG cable i need to buy? Some setting i need to enable for it to work?
I've tested the cables both with usb keyboard, mouse and various properly formatted USB drives - none detected at all. They dont work either with my Nexus 4 phone or Nexus 7 2012 tablet (but i suspect those models dont even support USB OTG, so doesnt say much).
Can anyone point me to a straight USB OTG cable that actually works with the tablet?
Are you running the latest OTA , Android 5.1? The OTG is broken in this version. Try plugging in the cable while tablet powered off the booting up. You won't be able to charge tablet until reboot though.

Man, I updated while traveling for 45 days!!! Loss of OTG for thumb drives, hub connection, camera image off load, wired Ethernet....what a loss!!!any word on when they will release software that at least makes it fully functional again? Plus the constant app optimization every boot cycle..I am hoping their self driving cars and self cooking ovens and make believe cities get better attention!

According to their website they expect an update by the end of the month that should fix these issues.
