What Y cable are you using? Maybe an Amazon link? I really want to be able to charge my tablet and have it read my 1TB portable HDD at the same time.

Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Accessories] CZ Eddie:
I think most generic USB-OTG Y cables will work?

This is one I tried:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1060746247?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

Then I also used this logic based charger:

http://www.lavalinkstore.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14&products_id=85

Both seemed to charge about the same.

Slowly. :D
[Nexus 9 Accessories] wang701:
Sorry for reviving an old post.

I'm trying to use this patch to get Nexus 9 to support OTG host mode with charging but I am not able to get it working by applying this patch.

The branch I'm on is: android-tegra-flounder-3.10-lollipop-mr1 and is on commit 29ada51.

I'm also certain that my Y-cable works since I have success using it with another kernel on Nexus 7.

From the patch, all I can see is enabling the Y-cable support and that's it. You didn't mess with the charging mechanism for bq2419x at all?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] 3's&7's:
I'm guessing its for Pixel C; can't compete with the Surface without otg charging?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] italynstylion:
Has anyone successfully gotten the Nexus 9 to charge via an OTG cable with something else (flash drive, keyboard, etc) plugged in at the same time? Also, the important thing is that it INDICATES it is charging too.

I've been playing with the Elemental X kernel and it only charges if you plug it all into the OTG cable and THEN plug it into the tablet. But even then it doesn't show it's charging in the Android interface. If you leave the OTG cable plugged in but pull the power from it it acts as if all the devices were unplugged and then replugged in. If you reattach the power to the OTG cable it will not charge.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] wang701:
I happened to use the Elemental X kernel as well for OTG with charging on Nexus 9.

It seems like it is the general procedure for OTG with charging for Android devices. There is definitely something in the kernel that should be modified so that the host will be notified when there is a new slave device plugged in and should start charging but unfortunately, I don't think it is implemented (or it can be enabled, just don't know where to enable it.)

I have the same issue. I think when in OTG with charging mode, if you look into Settings -> Battery, you can actually see the slope is going up meaning it is slowly charging up. I guess the Elemental X takes care of the OTG charging in kernel but does not implement the corresponding UI changes.

I don't know your familarity with the Android kernel but I think the changes should be done within the kernel. I was working on finding where to modify the kernel but got busy doing something else.

Hi, I'm trying to charge my nexus 9 via OTG cable at the same time I conect it to a Flash Memory. The reason is I want to download torrents with my tablet in a flash memory while I charge it. Is this possible actually?

[Nexus 9 Accessories] bondjames_12:
Does the tablet charge icon show that its charging in your setup?
[Nexus 9 Accessories] brutalv4:
I'm sorry for taking to long to reply. Yes the icon is visible while connected through hub.
[Nexus 9 Accessories] kacerik:
hey, has anybody figured out, how to get to work the OTG while charging simultaneously?

I have tried a Y cable, and it not charge, do you have a tip for a specific cable, or hub, or a schematic which works?

I'm running Nethunter 2019.4 which should support OTG and charging on Nexus 9.

thanks
[Nexus 9 Accessories] BagiMT:
It mostly works for me with the Fire-Ice Kernel and a standard Y cable. Charging symbol does not show but AccuBattery shows charging current. You have to plug in the power before you connect the USB device, else the tablet won't charge. Hope that helps others.

This is a question belongs to the Smartwatch 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting thread.

For root and reasons read this Link

One of the reasons at the moment is this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=octathorp.wearcontrol

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00143:
You usually don't. The custom status is a result of root. There might be a xposed module to change it but I don't use xposed so I can't say for sure. You can also try renaming SysScope.apk to SysScope.bak located in the system/app folder. I would just rename it in case it causes any problems instead of deleting it. There is a mod here but I haven't tried it yet because it's not a big deal to me.

My xda exec just stopped charging all of a sudden, my battery is completely drained. :confused: the usb sync cable doesn't work, neither does the charger. please help.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gibhenry:
Make sure device is off before connecting...

Using a non-data connection to a charger is not the same as a USB connection to another computer: I've discovered that if the device is on/open/running when I plug in a non-data charging cable (e.g., car charger or home charger as opposed to a USB connection to another computer), the device won't charge, and in fact will run down completely if left unattended like that. But if I turn the device fully off and then plug it in, it works. Strange, but true...I do this all the time when using my Jasjar as a GPS in the car. Hope this helps. Cheers,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] patrickl:
It also works if you shut the machine off after you connect it. I found that it depends on the charger. The standard charger works even if the machine is switched on, but a lot of after market chargers don't work right away and you need to switch the machine off first.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gibhenry:
Good news!

Thanks, that's really important info, because the USB jack is a weak point of the Universal, and the less one plugs and unplugs it, the better...so now I'll try re-powering it instead of unplugging and re-plugging it! Cheers,
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] patrickl:
Yeah, I had my USB jack break off too :( Actually, it could be that that is the problem Greenarcher707™ is having, although I guess he would have noticed that.

BTW you need to switch the PDA off and wait for a second or two. Then the orange light goes on. No orange light, no charging.

Quite anoying that it doesn't always work right away. I've had a few incidents where I ended up with a flat battery just because I forgot "the procedure" and the thing just wasn't charging.

HI,

I'm from Slovenia so I'm sorry if there are mistakes in writting.

My friend just bought Samsung Galaxy Mega LTE GT-I9205 and the phone doesn't start because the phone was rooted or I don't know what they have been doing with it and when they were trying to install new android on it there was a problem or they disconected the phone to fast.

When he got the phone and he started it there was written(Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode recovery mode in Kies & try again.).

My friend doesn't know about this problems and he doesn't know how to root the phone or install ROM with Odin so he gave the phone to me that I fix it. And I tried to conect the phone to Kies as it says on the phone and I tried to recover the phone and program asked me for the recovery code which I don't have because the phone wasn't conected to my computer when this happened. So I contacted the previous user and he said that the phone wasn't conected to his computer either and he doesn't have the recovery code.

So then I downloaded all four firmwares for Slovenia from SAMMOBILE site and tried to install it with Odin. When I installed firmwares which are android 4.2.2 version the phone started and showed the SAMSUNG GALAXY MEGA logo and on the top written recovery booting and immediately showed the error on which was written:

Image size too large!! W:1080, H:1920(with red)

display image fail(with yellow)

SECURE FAIL: KERNEL(with red)

When I installed the latest firmware with andorid 4.4.2 the phone turns on and shows SAMSUNG GALAXY MEGA logo and on the top is written RECOVERY BOOTING with blue and it stays there.

I CAN'T GO INTO RECOVERY MODE(Volume UP + Home + Power)

When I go into download(Volume Down + Home + Power) there is written:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9205

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Official

KNOX KERNEL LOCK: 0x0

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0x1

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 2

WRITE PROTECTION: Enable

SO WHAT TO DO? IS THERE ANY POSSIBLE WAY TO FIX THIS PHONE? I know that there is no warranty anymore
[Networking] DroidsBeforeBoids:
Hello!

I have a pretty unique internet setup....I connect to a cable company's public wifi with a small windows 7 computer, enable internet sharing to the ethernet, which is connected to a portable router and I connect all the devices to that router. Things were working well, but being a crappy old windows box, it randomly restarts, has driver problems, etc.

I was thinking of replacing the windows computer with one of those android media boxes...like this one..http://www.amazon.com/DIAOTEC-hardware-decoding-Bluetooth-Dual-band/dp/B00OLC80CS/ref=sr_1_38?ie=UTF8&qid=1416761939&sr=8-38&keywords=android+media+box

Because it uses less energy, is smaller, quieter, probably more stable, etc.

I was wondering if I would be able to have the same setup....Connect the Android box to wifi, then share that wifi's internet through Ethernet with other devices?

I've tried using repeaters, routers, access points, etc, but it looks like I can only connect to the cable public wifi and get internet from it if I use something like a computer or smartphone, in case you're wondering why I'm not just buying a repeater/access point.

Should be doable on a rooted device with ethernet capabilities. Sounds like a few iptables rules, a bridge, and maybe a route or 2 to add.

I can't seem to get this recovery working. I'm flashing it from TWRP 2.3.2.3 on a tf101g but, although the it reports a successful flash and I observe the blue-green bar on the next boot, if I try to boot into the new recovery, it just hangs. I do see an error regarding being unable to mount /staging immediately after the flash mind. Given that this is where the blob is flashed to, is that indicative of problems and can anyone suggest how I might resolve them?

If not, I wondered what the *oldest* twrp it's possible to flash the latest KatKiss from is and where I might find it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidneyk:
Are you flashing a version built for tf101g? The main one is for tf101.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snbutler:
Yes, I'm using signed_twrp-2.8.1.1_tf101g.zip from the first post on the main thread.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidneyk:
Did you also download the corresponding MD5 file to the same directory to verify you have a good download? A corrupt file might still flash but won't work necessarily. It should be recognizing your tf101g as such unless I missed something.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snbutler:
Hmmm. Interesting. I had downloaded the md5 file and had checked that it matched manually by running md5sum on the zip file and comparing the result to the contents of the md5 file. However, if I force md5 verification in twrp, it says that the two don't match and aborts the procedure. Redownloading provides me with the same version of the file each time, as checked with diff.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snbutler:
Another thought: could the blob itself be corrupted? Would you be able to supply an md5sum for the blob for to me compare against? Thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidneyk:
The MD5 supplied is for the zipped package, before it left my machine. If you, move both files to ext sdcard, or wherever you intend to flash from, and double check that md5sum matches the MD5 inside the MD5 file, after they are both in final flash from directory. I could extract the package and do an md5sum on just the blob, but if it's corrupted that won't really help you. You could also extract the blob to internal /sdcard directory and flash with adb shell per the rescue instructions from the first post of the thread.

1. Download all the 5.1 Roms, Gapps, SuperSu onto your SD Card

2.Download the tf101 TWRP 2.8.1 onto your SD Card.

3. Use Easy Flasher Unbrick/Flash Stock and Boot into Android. Shut down.

4. Use Easy Flasher to load the older version of TWRP that works.

5. Boot into Android, shutdown at the start screen again.

6. Boot into Recovery, and flash the latest TWRP 2.8.1

7. Make sure your tablet is disconnected from USB, and reboot into Android, it should say optimizing App 1 of 1.

8. After you're in the start screen, reboot again into recovery. It should now be 2.8.1.

9. Install the 5.1 Rom off your SD.
