Tablet with OTG+Charge - General Questions and Answers

Can anyone please help me with searching of tablet which simultaneously can charge and support keyboard+mouse.
I bought a Type-C hub ( https://www.klick.ee/swissten-usb-c-hub-8in1-with-3x-usb-3-0 ) and it works perfectly with my Samsung Galaxy S20, but my Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 (2020) doesn't want to charge with it (keyboard and mouse are working when adapter is not attached).
Any ideas why this happening and what tablet can you advise to me?

Looking at the A7 specs and the S20 specs, you would notice two differences:
The A7 has a USB-C 2.0 port while the hub is a USB 3.0 hub (probably 3.1 or higher). Massive difference in capability. There are other hubs that could work, but those don't support ethernet at the same time.
The S20 supports USB on-The-Go, the A7 doesn't (at least not officially anyway).
Conclusion: Buy any Tablet from a reputable Vendor with a USB 3.0 (preferably 3.1 or higher) and an Official USB OTG certification. The rest is how much you want to pay .

Thanks for an answer!
The thing is that I tried same hub with SM-T510 (specs) and works with this tablet. I also was yesterday at the Samsung shop and vendor tried original HUB and it also didn't work. One guys on reddit told:
"CorgiLover234 I have the exact same problem. I have two QGeeM hubs that both support OTG+Charge on my S20, but neither one supports charge on my Tab A7."
So, seems that it is problem exact of this model...

Funny, I actually have. I work in a computer repair/data recovery shop and we have a phone in with a broken screen/lcd. Long story short is that the device did not work with the phone we got it for, nor my phone (Galaxy S5), and I know my MHL works on my phone but we needed KB/Mouse support as well.
It may have been a bunk device and we haven't requested a replacement yet, so If you try it out let me know if yours works, and when we get our replacement i'll let you know.
actually the seller replied to me and says that this cannot do hdmi and otg at the same time but apparently this dock does : http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=ite...obalID=EBAY-US&ssPageName=ADME:X:ACME:US:1123
but this dock is not compatible with galaxy s5 ... i wonder why

did you get a replacement? does it work with hdmi and usb host at the same time?
i received and used the same one adapter
yes it can do both at the same time
although i am not satisfied with the image quality of the hdmi output
...which one

Unfortunately I don't think so, I used this:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/Lindy-73391-...6?pt=DE_Computer_Sonstige&hash=item462bc81bb0
with a s4, and it worked prperly, but when connected to s5 it doesn't even turns on. I think it is because s5 doesn't have a docking mode, in fact if you go in Settings-->accessories, there is only an option for sound on hdmi, while in s4 there were more (and one was for the docking mode)
I couldn't find anything that worked reliably and consistently. So I use the MHL for HDMI output and use a Bluetooth Keyboard and mouse...

This is a good solution, but I'm wondering why, since 11 pin connectors usually can handle hdmi and usb otg on the same time, why old dock stations for 11 pin device don't work?
using micro 3.0 for MHL and OTG
i have a SM-G900P and if i make a OTG and MLH cable through usb 3.0 do you think i could charge and use HDMI and 2 usb for keyboard and mouse. My goal is to make my phone like a mini computer on the go for my roms and movies
Possibly use the USB 3.0 Micro-b connection?
All my googling on this matter with the S5 seems to lead to one inevitable conclusion, the S5 won't allow for simultaneous MHL and OTG use, because the S5 uses the 5pin connector and not the 11pin connector (as the S4 seemed to). What I don't understand is, isn't the S5 using USB 3.0 instead of the USB 2.0 as on the S4? How could the S5 allow for faster data transfer rates and yet not be able to transfer more types of data at once?
Isn't there a way to utilize the entire USB 3.0 micro-b format (which apparently has 10 pins, 5 for backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 (except 5pin, and not 11pin), and 5 extra for USB 3.0 speeds) to use MHL and OTG and charging simultaneously?

I'm having an issue with MHL adapter on my S5, When I connect my MHL adapter to my S5, the audio on my TV seems delayed, but when I tried it on my S3, the audio is perfectly fine. Is this something to do with S5 having 5 pin only wherein S3 having 11pin?
I saw a 5 pin to 11 pin converter on Amazon, will this solve this issue? And possibly the issue of not being able to use MHL/HDMI and USB at the same time?
buy chrome cast you can screen mirror or use almost any app directly to the tv when it comes to videos and such theres a little allshare
button at the top of like the video player, you tube etc.
also a smart tv does the same thing only better (all the above scenarios will only work with a connected network)
what is wrong with the image quality?
Chromecast works for me at home or anywhere it has standard wifi, but is too painful in most hotels that use a web user login. Without net access it was almost useless last time I tried. I could pair with it, but it wouldn't stream local files from my device. Most places I've stayed in the last few years have an active HDMI port on their tv, so the MHL HDMI and OTG with USB wireless mouse on an S3 worked for me, even though I couldn't charge at the same time. Haven't been able to make that work so far with anything I've tried on the S5.
Still no luck with S5 docking (MHL+OTG)
Hello!
I've been using this adapter for a while with a Samsung Galaxy S4:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/MHL-...or-Samsung-Galaxy-S3-S4-Note/32461052976.html
Charging, HDMI connection and USB keyboard + mouse works very nice.
Unfortunately no luck with S5. Not even charging works. I read S5 doesn't use 11-pin USB (because of the USB 3.0 plug, etc...). If that's true, then not even installing a custom ROM would make the docking work.
According to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57336973&postcount=4, "the G800F is capable of USB OTG. It simply is not enabled in the stock firmware." I know this is about a S5 Mini, but wouldn't it be the same for the S5?

Android tab which supports OTG and charging at the same time

I'm looking for devices (Android tablets) which supports OTG (to connect slave-devices, e.g., a mouse) and charging at the same time
There was a thread about Nexus 7 https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/help/usb-otg-charge-t3588019
It needed a custom kernel to get OTG+Charging working
But it's very old, you can't buy a new Nexus 7 anymore
Also someone mentioned about Samsung tablets:
Samsung tablets for sure can support OTG Host/Charge for a tablet and peripherals. Here is a list of supported tablets:
Samsung Galaxy Tab A (10.1″)***
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (8.0″, 9.7″)
Samsung Galaxy Tab E (9.6″)*
Samsung Galaxy Tab A (8.0″, 9.7″**)
Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (8.0″, 10.1″)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S (8.4″, 10.5″)
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro (10.1″, 12.2″)

But these devices are also quite also and Samsung devices aren't that cheap anyway (if buying a new model)
So... Are there any devices (on sale) with normal prices which support OTG and Charging at the same time?
It doesn't matter if there is one port (input) or two (one for OTG and one for charging). Some Windows based tablets has a separate port for charging
Does Samsung Galaxy Tab A 7.0 (quite cheap) support OTG+Charging at the same time?

What you need is a "powered USB hub", it has its own power supply and it will allow you to connect multiple USB devices(mouse, keyboard, flash drive, etc..) and charge the device at the same time by connecting your phone charger to the hub at the same time.
I use a USB to microUSB adapter, then connect the adapter to a USB hub that has 4 ports, then I use the adapter to connect the hub to the charging port on the device, then I connect a keyboard, mouse and phone charger to the USB hub.

There is no such hub... At least officially. You won't find much. I saw one hub, but users said it was working only with Windows tablet (OTG+Charging), for Android OTG was working only
just google "Android OTG+Charging" you you'll it's quite a problem

Something like this won't do the job?

Or this:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VK9C24M/ref=cm_sw_su_dp
Of course, the device must support OTG and the accessory charging feature. If it doesn't, I'm not sure there is anything you can do to force it.

You have to test first
Does this hub supply a tablet with power or connected devices (slaves) to tablet? I need to charge a tablet and not connected devices (connected devices can get power from tablet)

Well... manufactures don't give any information if their devices support all of this and what customers have to do to get it working (buy a specific hub or something else)
It's been two days and I only got reply from you. So we can say that it's not that easy and we can't be sure what to buy. I don't want to waste money if it's not going to work
Would be great if someone could really tell me which devices (tablets) support this feature, which hub should I get for such devices and so on
Did u have any luck with this?
I am looking for the same thing. So far I tested a fire 7 that did not work.
It seems like usb c tablets might be the answer. Seen a post that mentioned a version of the note working this way.
I might give the galaxy tab a8 a try.
I'm building a list of those known to work and not work: I can't post the link.
So far, these devices are known to support USB OTG and charging with an ACA cable:
RaspBerry Pi
Amazon FireStick
Amazon Kindle Fire 10???
Dell Venue 8 pro
HTC One M9
Lenovo Miix 2 tablet?
Lenovo Yoga Book
Moto G 4?
NuVision Tab 8 (Windows 10) after restart only?
Nvidia Shield K1 table??
OnePlus One
Samsung Galaxy S3
Samsung Galaxy S4
Samsung Galaxy S5
Samsung Galaxy Note 3
Samsung Galaxy Tab 4
Samsung Galaxy Tab A7?
Samsung Galaxy Tab A8.0
Samsung Galaxy Tab E?
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2??
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5?
Samsung Galaxy View
Snes Classic
Devices which have a separate DC in power jack and support USB OTG (WIth any OTG cable, does't need ACA)
iRola 7" tablet. Very old.
E-Ceros Create 2 Tablet. Old
Ainol Q88. A newer version of this with Android7.1 and 1GB RAM is apparently still made. $53 It's said to support USB OTG (at least for a 3G adapter) and pictures clearly show a DC power jack, although the adapter may not be included. It is typically sold as a childs toy, but the protective rubber covering peels off to reveal a black plastic case.
Cube Talk 11 3G Phablet $85?
Raspberry Pi
Known to support OTG but NOT while charging: This limits OTG to either very short periods of use
Amazon Kindle Fire 7
Asus T100TAM
LG Nexus 5
LG Nexus 7
Samsung Galaxy Note 4
Samsung Galaxy S7
Samsung Galaxy S8+
Samsung Galaxy S9
Samsung Galaxy TabPro 10.1

Thanks for the summary. I am also looking for android tablets that support USB host and charging at the same. A few old tablets from LG and ZTE have both micro-USB as charging port and a full-sized USB port to host other devices. But they are quite old. So ACA cable might be the way to go.
Question: Do we need to patch android os as described here use ACA cable?
"You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink."
You can always offer power to a hosting device.
Whether it takes it is another question.
If it's rooted you may find that you can control something to make it take it.
I've used back-powering hubs to power Androids.
This is a hub that has been modified to present power on the upstream port.
You can modify any powered hub to do this.
See: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25639514&postcount=8
Has anyone come up with any solutions to this problem? I see this thread is a year old but I am here with a samsung tab A 8.0 2019, I have the exact same problem. I need to an external usb in service while charging, not one or the other.
The use of a specific value resistor on the USB OTG ID pin to ground is pretty manufacturer specific.
Some devices have up to a 5 bit non-linear converter on the ID pin to give up to 32 modes.
I've found Samsung to be a fan of using the OTG ID pin.
I would definitely try values from short to 1 k to 1 M (in an exponential progression).
I don't even remember which device this is, but it gives you some idea of the values they might use:
Code:
0
2000
2604
3208
4014
4820
6030
8030
10030
12030
14460
17260
20500
24070
28700
34000
40200
49900
64900
80700
102000
121000
150000
200000
255000
301000
365000
442000
523000
619000
1000000
Open
If you're rooted you may be able to control the charge controller directly.
Some of this could be a pain if you were plugging/unplugging all the time.
If this is some hard-wired, fixed usage you could definitely hard wire your own 4 V charger into the battery.
You might try getting a few pots 10k, 50k, 250k and some 220k resistors to try your luck.
Whoever is reading this I can assure you that the Samsung tab A does not charge while OTG. Jamming a resistor in there to short out the sense pin is not a thing. These are pwm charging and have been for a while. Even after spending $100 on the OTG cable alone it's still not working.. rooting.. twrp.. none of It makes any difference at all

How do you even do that? An OTG adapter is < $5. A connector is < $1.
OTG adapters normally have the ID grounded right inside the connector so you can't use that unless you chop up the connector.
You need to make up your own micro USB connector.

forum.xda-developers.com
I don't have a Samsung Tab A so there's only so much that I can say.
All devices have a linear or DC buck converter that feeds USB power to the battery.
All devices (that do powered OTG) have a charge pump or a DC boost converter that feeds power to the USB jack.
Both of these are under control of the processor.
Look in your kernel source under usb/otg
You should easily be able to see if you have an ADC on your OTG ID pin or if it's just a GPIO.
Look at your device under /sys and see if there is anything suspicious with "adc" in its name.
Code:
find /sys -name '*adc*' 2>/dev/null
In worst case you'd have to modify a driver.

Woe woe woe!!! I had fully given up on this tablet and didn't check back here out of anger and frustration. I have a hard time getting any support.
I am having a hard time following your technical speak. How do I get into that menu? Are you willing to give me a hand with this? Those commands look like ADB??
The charger I purchased was from a company called "lava" you can find them easily online. It was a Y cable that was almost $100. It didn't work.

USB-C Hubs..Which hubs work with the 7 pro on international & US software?

I converted to the international os and bought a Anker 5-1 USB-C hub. I can get it to recognize an external hard drive fine but when i connect my usb dongles for my keyboard and mouse i get no response, but they work fine through my tab s4 and galaxy s9 with the hub connect to them....? any thoughts and which hubs work with the dongles cconnected to the 7 pro?
i have otg on as well
Did you ever find a hub that works I would like to do this as well i have a cheap usb c to usbc charger hdmi and usb 3.0
It works great on my galaxy s10e and dex works keyboard and mouse hdmi out and charges the phone I did read somewhere that this is a kernel issue so i tried that and kind of wrecked my oneplus 7 pro but got it back up and running.

There are already threads to discuss dongles so use the search and you will have your answer there.
If you'd like to share the ones you have found that would be more helpful.

Question USB-C to HDMI not working

Anyone having issues with the video output from the Asus Rog phone 5 via USB-C cable? It was working fine when I first got the phone. I've been using it to stream on my youtube channel. A few weeks ago it stopped working. I'm not sure if it got updated but I was previously on the WW18.0830.211.75 Firmware and I just updated it to the WW18.0840.2106.86. It still doesn't work. I know it's not a cable issue as it was working before and if I use a different Android phone it works fine. I did a full reset and my USB-C cable to HDMI was connected to the TV and I did see the ROG Logo appear for a few seconds on the TV display and after that nothing again. Any help would be appreciated. Also if anyone has the original 18.0810 firmware I would like to try that. The links on this site are dead. Thanks in Advance!

You can find your firmware there. The raw firmware is a base firmware. The updated versions to it are still base firmware. Getting the oldest one typically isn't a good idea unless you have tried a newer one and had an issue you are sure was the raw firmware.
You may want to check what settings are enabled in developer options. I believe they have changed in the last few updates, but there is a section related to freeform windows and mirroring that may help with HDMI output.
I was able to reload the original firmware WW_ZS673KS_18.0810.2101.95 and still no USB-C to HDMI output. Not sure if anything could be wrong with the USB-C port for the video but I am able to do a data connection to my computer. I may just claim for a warranty exchange.
Are you using the side port snd not the bottom one?

Yes side, I've been streaming with this phone when I first got it. Worked fine for a few months then it just stopped with the Rog 5. My other Android with my same setup works fine.
mind linking a picture of the adapter in question?
Have you tried another cable? I know you said the cable works with other phones, but I have seen cables work for some and not others.
You may want to contact Asus. That should be covered.

Hi!
Same issue .
Did you find any solution?

What is a good hub for the Galaxy S8+ tablet?

Hello,
What is a good hub for a Galaxy S8+ tablet? I want to get a hub to get the external interfaces such as HDMI, usb, etc. I contacted Anker about this and they have not tested their hubs on the Galaxy S8+ tablet. So what is a good hub?

Honestly, any hub should potentially work - the USB-C standard supports HDMI as well as Ethernet, and a high end device such as the Tab S8+ should have little issue. Anker is a pretty solid budget brand.
