No.
I had got one of these for my Galaxy R hoping the same as you do, but it didn't work. Some information digging later I realized that you need a (micro in this case) USB connecter that makes the phone act as a host.
This dual connecter can only be used to extend a cable or something similar.

If I know, Galaxy R dont support USB OTG. Did you try it on your SGS3?

So will a HUB like this work fine? Or does it need an external power source?
Also, if I connected 2 male USB into the HUB and one into a wall charger, will it charge the phone?
Definitely needs power because I tried an unpowered hub with flash drive and phone crashed.

Did it just crash or explode and caught a small fire?
Dunno I couldn't find the Black Box. But yeah it just crashed and rebooted after a few seconds.

[Q] Dock mode by using normal micro USB cable?

Hi guys,
I'm thinking about getting dock station to my S3, not the official one (made by Samsung) but cheaper one. It seems like it won't put my phone automatically in Dock Mode, since it's like a connector/hub or something. Is there any program or modification that will put my phone in Dock Mode everytime I plug in the cable?

There must be some mod you can make to the cable. I say this because my car charger sometime puts the phone in dock mode!

bought one on ebay, but power doesn't work with my GN3 ... but work with an Galaxy S1 ... what is the problem ? anyone get one working ?
Maybe the problem is that since the note2/s3 Samsung changed a lot of stuff to an 11 pin connector as for the s1/s2 it's a 5 pin. As for a normal otg cable, it works for me at least (I have one w/o a charging cable)

USB audio hub

Hello there!
Has anyone got a USB c hub with 3.5 Jack (or the Jack to mini USB c that comes with the phone) input to work on le Max 2? What I want to try here is maybe charge and/ or using a USB controller input and an audio output at they same time. (E. g. MIDI+audio, xbox360 controller+audio...). If no one has tried this, may It be possible messing in some way with USB ports in a Linux type terminal? Thanks for any reply.
I've tried a couple of splitters like this to allow charging and headphones, but they don't work to charge the phone.
