Hi, I managed to sync up a playstation controller and was able to connect a cheap keyboard that I had lying around the house with no problems. Not sure about the Logitech or drives but I cant imagine the keyboard wouldnt work.

wont get a refund ,being posted a new one ,
will ask for a refund if that doesn't work either
and buy this one
i ve seen people using logitech k400 key board with a wireless usb stick connected to the sony s
thanks

You are welcome and good luck

I use and recommend purchasing Sony's SGPUC1 cable. Reasons: no risk, no guess work, no problems.

i use a L shaped usb otg cable which i got on ebay for my S2. Bit tricky to put it into the socket (since its L shaped), but it works perfectly after that.

Got the second one today which is not working, gone with the amazon one now
Can u tell the seller or item no on ebay where u bought this right anghle usb cable
Thanks

looks like this one : www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Host-OTG-Adapt...829304?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item4166846e78

the amazon cable on the above link works
thanks

if you live in australia or new zealand, jaycar now sells the cable for $5 I have one and it works perfect. I even used it to charge my galaxy when I ran out of powerpoints in the bedroom.

could be able a usb female-female adaptator to use the original cable to connect usb drive or 3G?
thank you, bye

[Q] Mounting USB Thumb drive/HD??

micro USB to Host adaptor (Samsung)
That would be awesome. I would love that idea but if the USB drive would be using the battery u could not charge. Unless u had like a hub connected or something and even then hmm good idea though

ithink this should work as i know that it will work with the SE live dock
awesome stuff
It works with the new Samsung Galaxy S2, you just buy a cheap micro USB OTG Host cable (about $2 from Hong Kong) and you can plug in Mice, Keyboards and thumb drives!! I still don't know if this is just drivers or a hardware requirement on the Board to support USB Host.. (I don't have a Galaxy S2 but I ordered the cable to play with anway) who knows.. perhaps I will have a phone that supports that one day

[Q] PS3 control won't connect

Hi everyone, I just got the Sony cable to hook up my PS3 control but it doesn't do anything. I plug it in and the control lights up and seemingly charges but no sync, no notification on my tablet saying it's plugged in or anything.
Any ideas wtf is going on?
Cheers,
Daniel
Is your tab on 3.2.1 rev 2 F/W ?
Are you using an OTG (on the go) cable ?
Yeah, you need to be on the correct firmware. Also the cheap cables off ebay dont work. Make sure it states 'sony tablet' in the description.
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using Tapatalk
Umm well I don't know about OTG, but it's the legit Sony SGPUC1 one that the website says to use? Could it be the PS3 cable that is wrong perhaps or will any mini usb work for that? The Sony cable works with my usb, just not the PS3 control. And yeah, defs the latest firmware, 3.2.1 release 2

The SGPUC1 is just a standard USB Micro adaptor, you will need to get an OTG micro-usb adapter cable to pair your joystick with the tab - do a search on Amazon or Ebay - will show plenty of options.
Hope this helps

EDIT
Got me confused now - some are apparently using this cable (SGPUC1) to connect to their PC's and some are using it to connect mice, keyboards and memory sticks - an OTG cable only works in HOST mode so it cannot do all of the above ????
I don't use a Sony branded cable so I'm not sure now just which type of cable the SGPUC1 is.
Standard Micro-USB adaptor - Tablet S is a slave and can communicate with host on a laptop/pc.
OTG Micro-USB adaptor - Tablet S is host and can cotrol attached devices, mice, keyboards, joysticks etc....
The Sony website has the following patch note:
Adds support for the Wireless Controller for PlayStation® 3 entertainment system
Requires SGPUC1 USB Adapter Cable (sold separately)
Not available in all countries and regions For Sony Tablet S only
Does anyone know if it's available in Australia? I just contacted Sony and hopefully get a reply on Monday.

My Australian Tablet S works on 3.2.1r2 with a standard DualShock 3. I'm not using the SGPUC1, I'm using one from ebay (http://tinyurl.com/75qm3zy) which I plug a standard USB to Mini-USB cable into with my DualShock on the other end. As soon as I hit the PS button, it pairs and the screen shows a notification telling me it's connected.
Are you sure you've pressed the PS button to initiate pairing?

Yep hit the PS button and still nothing, soon as I unplug it it starts up my PS3 though. I think it's gotta be a firmware issue, I can't think of any other reason it would charge but not connect properly.
Have you tried to connect anything else to the tab with the adaptor, like a usb keyboard or memory stick, if the cable is OK the tab should "see" a device plugged in.
If this works then you know the adapter is OK and that the tabs USB port is working OK, since you know your dualshock is also working, it just leaves the cable to the dualshock and the tab f/w as suspects.
You can then check the dualshock cable by plugging it into the ps3 to confirm that the ps3 is seenig the dualshock through the cable - if it does then the prob is definately with the tab.
If I remember correctly my tab responded immediately to the dualshock being connected by installing the driver for it.
Hope this helps to narrow the problem down for you.

Just another thought, make sure your PS3 is turned off at the mains while trying to get it working with the tab - I had to do that.

Remebered to turn bluetooth on ?
Is it working OK now ?
If so - happy gaming

USB's, External Hard drives both work but still nothing from the PS3 control I tried turning the PS3 off, bluetooth on and off, everything I can possibly think of. Tried multiple mini-usb cables into the PS3 control, nothing works.
I think it must be software related if it will charge, work with other usb devices but not the control. I might wait it out for ICS, according to rumours should only be like a month.
That and I'll try ringing Sony I guess, see what happens.
Thanks for all your help though guys, really appreciate it!

I'm sure you've already gone through all the steps, so it might be a hardware issue (tablet, cable or the controller).

Haha yeah I think I've tried everything possible and still not working, thanks for that though No idea why mine won't work :/
Is it a 100% official Sony controller? Or is it potentially a knock off one from ebay which without side-by-side comparison, looks like a genuine one?
My motive behind that question being you say you've tried everything, (multilpe cables, usb ports, etc) but no mention of trying a different controller. hence why I suspect this could be the problem
EDIT: Also if possible try a different controller
Haha yeah I have three all legit playstation controls, two non dualshock and a dualshock. None work. I'm gonna call Sony since they haven't replied to my email

[Q] (Sprint) USB OTG broken

So I had a USB OTG cable from Motorola, it works on my Xoom, but when I try to use it on my (Sprint) SGSIII, nothing happens. I don't get any "USB Connected" messages, I don't get any prompts to mount anything, and My Files doesn't show any new devices. I've tried the cable with two different flash drives, a camera, a camcorder, and a hard drive. All of them work on the Xoom, but none work on the SGSIII. I am rooted and have a custom recovery, but everything else is stock. I downloaded USB Host Diagnostics, and it says that the phone claims it should work (Kernel, Android API, Rooted API all claim support, but no device detected). I don't know if its that the Motorola cable is unique to the Xoom, or if it is just slightly different on the Xoom such that it doesn't work with Samsung's new connector. I don't have any other OTG hosts to test the cable with. Is there any way, without flashing a new kernel (just got my phone up and running, OTG would be nice but not worth the trouble of reinstalling everything, esp if it isn't going to work), to get the OTG working?
Thanks!

That's not true. I have a cable that works with my Sprint SGS3 and I'm sure it's not a samsung cable.
@OP: This is also with the stock kernel so the support is there.
Hmmm, yeah I've been looking everywhere to see what's wrong, but all I get is that it should just work. My guess is either my phone is broken, or the OTG cable I have is just slightly different and the phone doesn't recognize it, but the Xoom does cuz it was made with the Xoom in mind. Can someone suggest a cheap OTG cable that you know works on the SGSIII? Thanks!
i got mine from buy.com for like 4 dollars shipped came from Cali got here in 2 days :highfive:
Had that problem but then I pushed it all the way in until it clicked, thought it was in before but it wasn't it should click when it's in.

Its definitely all the way in, the plastic casing of the cable is flush with the bottom of the phone. No luck =(
Just bought a cheap one from Amazon that qualified for prime 2 day shipping that I ordered along with my SanDisk 64GB card. Worked fine on the thumbdrive drive I tested. It fits in real tight though, I'm going to file down the two tings so it's easier to unplug.

There is no "samsung" or "moto" OTG cable, Its either wired right or not. Micro USB has 5 pins, not 4 like normal USB. The extra pin is what determines if its an OTG cable, a "factory" cable, and so forth and with OTG, that pin is wired to ground. I have a handful of $3 OTG cheapo adapters that work with everything I have thrown at them with my S3 and that includes class complaint, bus powered 5 in 5 out midi interfaces so unless the sprint device is horribly crippled in this regard, I'd say OTG works like a champ on the S3
personally, i bought a few of these: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B005QX7KYU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
just tested them with a whole range of devices (mouse, keyboard, usb drives, an ipod, another s3, a ps3 remote, a dslr) and works flawlessly
It was the Moto cable
So I had to go exchange my S3, there was dust on the camera sensor, and the Moto OTG cable didn't work on the replacement. I got one of the cheap amazon OTG cables, and lo and behold it works now. The Moto one works on the Xoom with no issue, as does the generic one I bought, but only the generic works on the S3. My guess is Moto did something slightly different with their cable, maybe used a pull-down resistor on the sense pin instead of shorting it to ground or just something that causes the S3 not to recognize it.

Ordered but it's going to be a while. Didn't realise until after I placed the order that it's coming from China. Estimated delivery between June 20 and July 24. Order status says shipped already, but I've had stuff stuck in NY Customs for a few weeks on more than one occasion.

The power point is used to power the connected devices and doesn't power/charge the tablet.
Plus it's only powerful enough to power USB devices, it will not power 2.5 " HDD's for example.

Did you order one of these? If not, I'm curious as to where your getting the specs from. I'm hoping your wrong of course, lol. My external 2.5" HDD runs perfectly with 500ma, so if I had my 2100ma USB wall wort powering this adapter, I would assume I would get 500ma (if the power is being limited) or more out of the 2 usb ports. Unless Samsung is planning on selling an overpriced breakout box, I don't understand why they would cripple such a nice tablet with this one port for everything crap.

I ordered the 1 port version, not the 2 ports version mentioned above.
It's true the tablet can power 2.5 HDD's when connected to any/most OTG cables, but I also wanted to use it with a phone (which needs the HDD to be connected to a power source).
After I sent the 1 port version back, I looked at buying the 2 port version, but after reading the small print, I found out the tablet couldn't be powered/charged, the power point was used to power the connected devices.
Two examples of the 2 ports version I looked at:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Micro-Adapter-Cable-Galaxy-EXCITES/dp/B00J2QID16/ref=sr_1_29?ie=UTF8&qid=1402734708&sr=8-29&keywords=otg+cable

The USB Power Port only supplies extra power to the dual OTG ports. It will not charge your mobile phone or tablet.

The 2 port version, obviously will work when connecting 2 devices at once, but the power point, won't be any use, as the tablet will already be powering the devices.
That's my understanding of it.

It does not charge the tablet. It does supply power to the 2 usb ports even when disconnected from the tablet. It is an inexpensive alternative to the Samsung otg to usb adapter I purchased for $19.99.
Hopefully Samsung or some other company comes out with an adapter that can charge the tablet and has usb and hdmi ports.

Nice find. I'm with 0-0-0 on the included HDMI. Just got this reply from them "nothing planned for hdmi. our current adapter will work with your 12.2 inch tablet on just usb though." Maybe if enough people contacted them stating their interest, they might develop one. Easy to send a message right from the product page requesting this.

I don't think an MHL adapter works with a regular USB port. Not 100% sure though. Just ordered a male USB to female micro USB to try, lol. Even if it doesn't work, that's one adapter I don't already own. If it works through this adapter I purchased: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Ports-Micro-USB-2-0-HUB-Charger-Apdater-Cable-OTG-PC-Laptop-Smartphone-Table-B-/161222133020 then it should work through that Lava adapter.

Wouldn't any of the USB to HDMI converters hooked to one of the USB ports work??? (just asking, have no intention of hooking it up)

here u go guys...meant to post this almost a week ago when i saw the topic. i ordered one for my tab pro 8.4 lte (should work for every variant though) & it works great...u can use hdmi (takes the regular full sized cable) with a hard drive/flash drive or large sdcard connected simultaneously while charging your device but the charger doesnt even need to be plugged up for hdmi to work. The bonus for me was that i won mine in an auction & only paid $4 for it (normally around $10 as u can see from the link which still isnt bad)...if there is any negative about this thing its all the weight/stress resting on that lil micro usb connection which means it basically needs to be placed perfectly flat. They also have a dock version which should solve that issue for around $20 which i plan to order & test at some point...hope this helps other users out with your decision

@burningstep
yep...this DEFINITELY works simultaneously. I use it to watch movies from my usb external on my pico projector that are both connected to the tab pro...u wont be disappointed, in fact, i was surprised that it didnt even need the charger attached because it was necessary for both of my other tabs (the original 7 & the tab plus) although u will want to plug it up anyway or your battery is gonna get burned up pretty quick

Great, thank you very much.
And you're sure, that HDMI and USB-OTG and Tablet-Charging works at the same time? Thus, I'll be able to play a video from an external harddisk to my TV over HDMI out.
