Thanks a lot!

But question about restoring stock recovery still active... I need to know where to get original recovery from Samsung and how to flash it (I do not want lose varanty if something happens with tablet :) )
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyfgeorge:
Did you try to search the stock rom from www.samfirmware.com?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ailir:
Sure, but there is no ROM for Ukraine :(. Also looking it on the samsung-updates.com with same negative result.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viasat:
If you have p3100(wifi+gsm) download P3100XWBLF5 (it's Russia 4.0.4 ) extract with winrar,and you will find recovery.img inside,and flash it with Mobile Odin.It works 100% ,I have tested myself.You can flash with Mobile Odin any recovery you want,not only CWM,you can flash any official recovery.img ,just extract it from your rom with winrar.

Cheers!

Thanks!

I have GT-P3110, but i think that recovery same for all regions and it can be extracted from any ROM for 3110. Is i am right?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viasat:
Yes,unpack any rom for p3110 ,and extract recovery.img from it,put on your sdcard (internal or microsd) open Mobile Odin,and select Open recovery,and flash it.It will work 100%.

Cheers!

I can't extract md5 files, help..?

and btw mobile odin isn't compatible with my tab so I'll try odin. :S
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ailir:
*.md5 file is tar archive. You can change extension from *.md5 to *.tar and unpack it (for ex; with using WinRar). Also you can use Total Commander for unpacking.

P.S. Will try this method in a week or little bit later. (I am on Vacation and dont have any laptop)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesek:
Hello,

I run into rather strange problem. My phone, china Android 2.3.4, is working quite weel instead of this:

If I use WIFI, then turn it off and try to use mobile data connection, it is not possible.

Icon showing that mobile connection should be active is on, but no data comming through.

I tried switchiing to airplane mode, changing access point names and so on, but nothing worked. Only solution was to restart the phone, after that all works normally - until connecting to wifi.

After rooting my phone I tried to figure out more with Teminal emulator. It seems that after releasing wifi connection and turning interface down, mobile interface comes up with same IP as before - it should ask network for new one. But, more important, route table is empty (or containing one entery and no default gateway at all)

I tried bringing mobile interface up and down several times, tried forcing it to use dhcp (timeout), without success.

Is there a way to "reset" whole networking system from shell? Something like partial restart, which would be probably quicker than full restart.

Thank you for any ideas.

I'm having the same problem with an LG Optimus F6. Did you ever get this resolved with your phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
Hey guys,

I have been looking into this quite a bit lately, since I am considering buying a dlna adapter for my tv/beamer. As I understand it so far, any content stored locally on your phone should be able to be streamed via dlna, so long as you understand what your doing.

However I am unclear whether I will be able to stream other content as well. Ideally I would like to be able to simply mirror my phones screen on a tv/beamer. However all I read in this regard was so unspecific that I am lead to believe that this wont be doable for quite some time. (The HTC media Link HD has the capability but only for some versions of the new one XYZ series and another product by a company called dream chip doesnt seem to be ready to be sold just yet).

Long story short: Is there anyway I could have overlooked that allows me to mirror my phones screen to a tv or stream perhaps the contents of my phones browser to a tv? (All of this I would like to be able to do without needing access to an actual computer).

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Good question, thanks for alarming this in this thread as I would also be interested in this too!!
[Nexus 7 Accessories] uberNoobZA:
I realize there is another thread about an OTG cable that does work with the Nexus 7, but after 3 or 4 posts, it has digressed into discussing what to plug into the OTG and what to use instead of OTG.

As I struggled to find any confirmation of a device I could buy in the UK that DID work with the Nexus 7, I thought I'd make this thread. At the same time, I also bought a USB OTG adapter that does NOT work with the Nexus 7, so thought I'd let you know of that one too. I would like to request that people use this thread to show USB OTG's that they have confirmed as working with the Nexus 7 and also those that do not work.

For those OTGs that are working, please indicate what tests you have done as well as where you purchased it (links please). Please try to refrain from discussing / recommending devices to plug into the USB OTG unless it's to say you have confirmed it as working with the USG OTG and Nexus 7.

DOES work with Nexus 7 -

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005FUNQXS/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

I can confirm that the following work on the Nexus 7 with this Adapter -

- USB Keyboard plugged into Adapter

- USB mouse plugged into Adapter

- USB mouse and USB keyboard plugged into (self powered) USB HUB, and HUB plugged into adapter

- USB Memory Stick (pendrive as some call them) as long as the Nexus 7 and Google Nexus are ROOTED and have a utility called StickMount installed (from Google Play Store)

- USB Dongle for Wireless Keyboard (with built in trackball), plugged into Adapter. Nexus 7 picks up both mouse and keyboard

I have confirmed that my wireless keyboard (with trackball) works great with this USB OTG Adapter

Does NOT work With Nexus 7 -

Ordered two different USB-OTG cables from Amazon. Only the second one, SANOXY USB 2.0 Female to Micro USB Male OTG, has come in. Took 12 days from shipping confirmation email to end user delivery.

SANOXY Micro USB Host Mode OTG Cable Flash Drive SD T-Flash Card Adapter FOR Samsung GT-i9100 i9100 Galaxy S II 2 GT-N7000 Galaxy Note

SANOXY USB 2.0 Female to Micro USB Male OTG(On-The-Go) Cable Adapter for Samsung Galaxy s2 i9100

The SANOXY USB 2.0 Female to Micro USB Male OTG cable works fine. I've detailed my experiences in the External Storage Device Compatibility Review thread in this forum.

As I've mentioned in several other USB-OTG threads. The SANOXY USB 2.0 Female to Micro USB Male OTG cable I received is shorter than the one pictured at Amazon. See attached.

Yes there is. There are several threads in this forum as well as the Q/A and General forums related to USB-OTG cables,and what works and what doesn't with them. Just as there are multiple threads about the same case (Blurex for example) running in this forum. Just as there are several threads ongoing about POGO pins and the Dock accessory.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] proud_whovian:
I have that one and the fit is a little looser than I would like with the nexus 7 and slight nudge may make it lose the connection with the nexus 7, it doesn't completely fall off but just out enough to lose the connection . Maybe its because in essence you put the thing in backwards? It fits snugly in my galaxy s2.

Is yours the same?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] uberNoobZA:
Yes, and as i said in FP, after 4 or 5 posts, it diverted to discussing what to plug into the OTG. Also, this thread notifies of OTG cables NOT working with Nexus 7

I got this one ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008CQKM2U/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00 ) a little pricey but a like the way it looks and the fact that I can use the hdmi port with my galaxy s2

I used it with a 32gig speed 4 microsd card to watch video and it worked fine. Also a 8 gig flash drive for video was good. The fit is nice and snug into the nexus 7's port.

Also tried the hdmi with the galaxy s2 on my TV at first I thought it wasn't working then I remembered reading something for a different one that said you needed to give it power in order to send to the TV, so since my computer in next to the TV i plugged it in via the micro usb cable after that it was working fine on the tv

So, what is the resolution of the HDMI output display using this device? I might sink my teeth into it if it's 1080p.

The nexus 7 doesn't do HDMI. I use the HDMI on my samsung galaxy s2 phone so far I only tried it to make sure it worked with a video I'd have to check resolution if u want to know but again the HDMI does not work on the nexus 7 cause the nexus 7 is mean (at least that's my theory)

I connected a microsd card and a USB flash drive and it would only recognize the last one connected not both at the same time (though that would have been nice)

most of the otg cable i have seen here ships from hongkong so how long does it take to deliver?

IF it takes more than two weeks does anyone have link to the us based company that sells this product?

much appreciated
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Jark89:
I just received my OTG cable today. $0.64 + free shipping, haha. Came from Hong Kong, like many others, and received in less than 2 weeks (ordered Aug.3rd & received Aug.16th). Amazon gave an estimated Aug. 29th - Sept. 17th delivery date, so I was nicely surprised today when I checked the mail.

Anyway, it works as advertised, but the connector portion is a bit long, so there's quite a bit of the aluminum showing when its plugged in. Cable is quite soft.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] SwiftLegend:
Just got this, http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Note-Multi-functional-Connection-Kit/dp/B006MJZOMW/ref=pd_cp_cps_2 They have one that's made specifically for the Nexus 7 (which I didn't see until this one came in :/). Works with Chainfire's StickMount app. Only slight issue I have is that the male end of it seems to be a little too short for the N7. Other than that everything seems OK.

Here's the one made for the N7. It has a cable end to it, which is kinda a negative for me. May try returning the one I got and get this one instead ($10 difference). http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008CQKM2U/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

[Nexus 7 Accessories] proud_whovian:
I bought the 1st one you did but since the connector is a little short any nudge would cause it to loose the connection. So I sent it back for a refund and got the 2nd one you mentioned. It fits perfectly :) I have also tried it with my galaxy s2 and it also works including the HDMI port which is useless with the nexus 7 at the moment but I can use it on my phone so YAY.

I don't know if its the same for all MHL adapters (if thats what its called) but I have to also connect the micro usb to give it power in order to get the hdmi part to work on the tv. just FYI
[Nexus 7 Accessories] SwiftLegend:
Hmm think I'll do that. Just curious, did the seller refund the money immediately? (or atleast same day). I had free 1 day shipping, but I doubt it will get to him in that time. Just can't be patient and I wanna get the right one as soon as I can :D
[Nexus 7 Accessories] proud_whovian:
I kinda got impatient and bought the one I wanted before actually sending the other for a refund, it's currently sitting on my counter waiting for me to tale it to UPS to send back :o

I just walked into my local electronic store and bought an adapter. It said OTG and it works fine. I'm on the island of Abu Dhabi, UAE - so that's cool.

Sandisk USB drives work fine and plug in some random mouse and it works - let me go test my 1terrabyte drive. Yep, I've got a terrabyte of storage now - lol. Movies play direct from it. Western Digital.

My case has a nice place to fold back and hold the USB drive while its playing. So it like 32 GB of storage. Or as large a flash drive I can pay for.

I plugged in a regular PC mouse and that works. The keyboard works too! It feels so good to type like this. Yeah I just plugged in some random huge bulky keyboard and even though the indicator lights on the keyboard aren't on, it's typing fine.

My next GOAL is to print and get video out (either dongle or wirelessly).

Belkin USB 2.0 Ethernet adapter works with the OTG-micro USB to USB adapter.

Iomega Helium portable hard drive 500GB works with the OTG-micro USB to USB adapter. The drive will require external power supply. As the drive I tested is Mac, I had to reformat. The Nexus 7 does see it and access it as two folders ( 1 is the EFI and the other is free, don't mess with the EFI part ) but as I have a PC, I could not load stuff on it.... On my PC, I reformatted for use with a PC. Leave the small EFI partition alone. delete the large partition and reformat. Assign a drive letter( it's a PC thing or else you will not see the drive on My Computer). eject and plug in to the Nexus 7. Using StickMount to mount, under my File ManageHD, it is listed as usbStorage folder...and I see all the contents. Folks with XP definitely have to do this. W7 is optional as it can do EFI. The microUSB OTG may cause some problems as it may be loose and the StickMount may not see it....so repeat unplug and plug...
