My USB mouse and keyboard have stopped working since ee pushed out the android 4.4 update. This is with both a cheap USB otg cable and the official Samsung multimedia dock.
Had anyone else experienced pertinence with KitKat and USB otg?
Update: in security settings, set the policy level to normal.
All working again now, huge thanks to Lisa at EE.

OK thanks. Maybe there is a different problem - I shall the dock with a friend's note ii to see if perhaps the dock is faulty. I make no assumptions about my cheap otg cable.

Since upgrading to kitkat, my keyboard and mouse also does not work on my smart dock anymore. The HDMI still goes through to the display but it does not detect the usb keyboard and mouse.
the Smart Dock huh? they havent released one for the Note 3, and the latest one (which is old) seems to work, i wouldnt be surprised if Sammy stops the support in purpose.
damn, and i was so near on getting one.

Yes. I got my Smart Dock about 4 months ago and it worked perfectly. If I knew KiKat was going to break the functionality I would not have upgraded. Very disappointed. Really hope they fix it in an update.

on KitKat as well? How is the charging? How long does it take to charge the phone?
it is going to create inconsistent charges switching from dock to wall charger which differ in USB versions and power transmission.
Can you try to use the wall plug of the Note 3 in the dock, just curious if it will charge any faster...?

Smart Dock not working since kitkat upgrade
Hello XDA, this is my first post.
I had the same problems: 4.4.2 official version in my GT-N7100 and my Smart Dock is not working properly: the USB are not working at all.
I downgraded my Note 2 to 4.3 but it's still not working.
Before upgrading it was everything ok.
I sent an email to samsung but I received no answer at all.
Any sugestion?
Thank you

OnLive recently came to Android and a number of games require a controller. I tested OnLive and it ran fine, I just need a controller.
Is there any way to use a USB/etc controller on a NT? Or like the Sixaxis or 360 controller.
Without bluetooth (which the nook tablet doesn't offer) using a wireless controller is gonna be difficult.
Maybe a wired one might work but I'm not sure if you're gonna find one that will connect to the nook tablet.
Gotta say though, I've tried some of the on live games that work without the controller and they play really well. If there IS a way to add a controller- this could really step up tablet gaming quite a bit.
How about a keyboard? Is it possible to hook up a keyboard to the NT?

Yes, technically. You need a custom rom installed though with bluetooth activated. But even then the range is very small. But ive never needed to use a keyboard from far away with my nook. Also, some work better than others. Hope this helps.
I really want to plug a keyboard to NT after I installed Quake 1,2,3. It's so smooth but I can never play it!! Like standing in front of a game shop
I thought ROM edits were locked on the NT? Or something was still locked.
But you can enable Bluetooth on the NT? I hadn't heard about that.

While there appears to be a Bluetooth capable chip in the NT, it has yet to be determined whether or not we will be able to enable it -- with or without custom kernals.
There's no way to plug something into the USB port?

if you look closely you'll notice its actually a non-standard Micro USB. 12 pins vs the normal 5 and i believe the plug is a mm or 2 longer.

A standard micro usb cord from my samsung captivate fits it as a data cable, not a full charger granted but should charge it when turned off, the 12 pin is to charge it while in use so it would work if the nook can host usb

Gingerbread has USB host mode but the ROM has to enable it. I have a mini USB to female USB coming. I will check keyboard, mouse and sixaxis support when it does.

What's the process to charge the tablet both with and without the cradle? Do you have to uncover/cover a charging connector each time due to the waterproof nature of the tablet? Does the cradle make the process significantly easier (e.g., is it worth the money)?
Charging with the micro USB you have to pop a flap open to access the data/charging port. Not got a dock yet but there are two pogo pins on the side of the tab so looks like you can charge with no need to open anything just drop the tab in the dock and she will charge.

I bought two cradles with mine, one for the office and one for the bedroom. They really work great, very simple but as mentioned you just drop it in and it starts to charge.
What's also nice is Smart Connect, a pre installed app. When docked you can get it to do multiple tasks, like open the clock, mute the sound during a specific time, etc. Smart Connect also works with Bluetooth devices, MHL connectors, NFC, all sorts of external connections.

Unfortunately when the device is inside the cradle(my cradle modell: SGPDS5) the USB port is covered so you can not use it.

Sad, that. The location chosen for the XTZ's USB port was not a wise choice. You can turn the tablet upside down and put it into the cradle when you need to access the USB port; however, the cradle will not charge the tablet when it is in that position.

I think the USB port location is bad but goog at the same time, for example when you are playing and hold the two extremes of the tablet and durring you can comfortably charge it.However this location is problem when you put the tablet to the cradle. Your idea has a little problem because i put the tablet to the cradle upside down like you said and the power button and the notification led is covered. but its not a big problem because this version of android which running on the tablet has an opption where you can set double tap wake up action
I just bought a monitor with MHL. This came with an MHL lead Micro usb > HDMI plug so eager to try it I got nothing on the Note 3.
Testing this with my HTC Sensation the lead alone worked perfectly so I did a bit of research and figured that all I should need is a pin converter 5 - 11 pin and I should be fine.
I This
When that duly arrived, it still didn't work. What I noticed when using this though was :
1) The Samsung pops up a message "HDMI connected" when the monitor is on.
2) The monitor scans and doesn't tell me there is no signal - It sits there with a black screen when the note 3 is connected.
3) The Samsung loses it's sound (on the device) but nothing comes through on the monitor (not used the monitor speakers yet so I might no have this set up)
4) The Samsung shows that it is being charged.
Further research seems to come up with conflicting results. Some people say you MUST have one of those adaptors with external power, but others swear their adaptors work fine without it because the Note 3 is MHL 2.0 and only needs it for battery charging.
So I am a bit confused and hope some folks here can shed some light on this matter. My HTC sensation works perfectly with just the lead, I find it hard to believe the |Note 3 won't even when the pin outs are correct and the monitor is clearly supplying power to the device.
Any help appreciated, I don't want to buy an older mhl 1.0 adaptor with power or an expensive 2.0 adaptor if it's not necessary and I do want to hear from anyone that has an adaptor that doesn't require power.
I've never owned one Samsung phone, even when using an official (powered) MHL adapter, that worked well enough to even be worth having the adapter.
I don't know if the Note 3 requires it or not, but I wouldn't even bother with it tbh.
My Samsung MHL 2.0 cable does NOT require a power input with the Note 3 (I still use one anyway). AFAIK you still need a charging input if the cable is MHL 1.0, regardless of what spec the phone has.

Thanks, it's curious then why my mhl lead with 5 - 11pin adaptor doesn't work directly unless there's some magic in the Samsung unit.
I seem to be clearing the fog on this issue a little but I'm still confused.
It appears that what Samsung provide is and MHL > HDMI adaptor. HDMI and MHL are different ... in some way.
However, when a monitor supports HML directly this shouldn't be necessary at all. As my monitor came with this feature and supplied an MHL cable albeit the 5 pin my take on this is that fitting a 5 > 11 pin converter should be all that I need. Some appear to have used passive MHL cables with success :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483054&page=3
But I'd still like any more expert opinions on whether I'm on the right track or not. If I am then I might assume the chinese adaptor I bought is defective in some way.
I don't know what happened but I bought this one and I am surprised! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-O...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item486423fdfe This was suggested in another thread from many users however it was noted that it requires power A/C to work! To my big surprise,the one that I got it works without plugging any power source and not only that but it managed to load my external usb other than hdmi
Those are my first results after 10 minutes of testing it! Didn't have any long term session with it in order to check if it is stable or errorfree!

I think No as the TV is quite old and from my usage I didn't see any signs of MHL. But I will test it again in my other TV which is much newer to see if it still works without external power! I Will post my findings on this thread in the near future
It seems that it works pretty fine also in my other (newer) TV without any power source!

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:

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.

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.

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

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.
I'm trying to connect my Tab S6 (SM-T867V) to my Logitech mouse, but as soon as I connect the OTG cable to the Tab, even before the mouse controller is insterted, I get a notification that says USB connector connected and then it switches to USB connector disconected and just keeps flipping between the two notifications every few seconds seemingly endlessly. I tried the otg cable with my Note 9 (SM-N960U) and it works perfectly fine with my mouse. The Tab and Note prompt me with charging/file transfer when the otg cable is hooked into the Note and connected to the Tab via a usb c cable so that seemed to work fine. The tab also works normally when charging and using a usb c to hdmi adapter, so I don't think it's a port issue. Both devices are on One UI 2.1 and both have USB 3.1 type C 1.0 reversible connectors, so I'm really confused as to why I'm getting this bug. If anyone has a solution, I would greatly appreciate it!
Why not use a hub like a uGreen one ?

My Goodness that is trash! i'm suprised that it works on your Note 9! Mate purchase a uGreen or any decent USB hub! Plus make sure it's got (PD) Power Delivery port!

I didn't think about PD making a difference, but maybe you're right. My usb c to hdmi does support PD, but the power wasn't plugged in when I tried it and it still worked tho ?
But either way, I ended up purchasing a bluetooth mouse instead just because it's more useful to have one for my tablet rather than unplugging my laptop's every time I take the tab somewhere. I will keep this in mind for if I need to add more accessories later, so thanks for the info.

Yep i'm using a Microsoft Bluetooth Arc Bluetrack mouse + Keychron K1 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, and a uGreen hub Awesome for out and about setup! Mate if you spend some good cash from the get go you wont have issues down the road. Well that's how i see it!
