Hey, I'm trying to find information on using a SGS2 or another handset on ethernet. I have seen a few threads relating:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224660
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1274656
and a few more, but all relating to tablets. The reason I need ethernet is because I plan to use one of these as a camera and image processor on a UAV. We are planning to use a 2.4GHz antenna to communicate with our ground station, so it would simplify everything if I could just implement the communication through ethernet.
My question is if all these usb-rj45 dongles with linux drivers will work on this or a similar handset. I'm fine with doing terminal tweaks to get it to work, but I'd like to know if anyone has gotten ethernet to work on a handset.
Thanks,
Santiago

Now that we have USB DVB-T sticks which are working I was wondering if it would be at all possible to get 3g USB dongles working on the Archos. It would be pretty much the icing on the cake with regard to features.
I think that there are a few chi-pads out there which have at least some support for them.
I would love to be able to assist in the creation of this but alas I suck at the linux (i'm learning though)
It seems that the kernel from 2.6.20 for at least one of the popular Huawei models. Will check the lsusb command with mine later on
Yup! hope some one can help do this. hope we also do this with zte usb dongle.

This might be far fetched, but thought I would ask anyway. With an over abundance of higher end-older android phones for cheap on sites like CL, I wonder if it is possible to run WFEMU on those phones? WVEMU is a dongle emulator used for FTA testing. The original WFEMU is made for Linux and Android is Linux based. Most of those phones also have WiFi capabilities, making it a great small wireless dongle if it is possible? I am using usb to serial with my current setup. One would only need to add usb to micro usb converter to hook to the phone (and have usb host capabilities on the phone).
Not sure if there are any FTA junkies on here, so I also posted the question on an FTA site also.
Looking forward to any thoughts and/or comments on this. Please move if this is in the wrong section.
Hello,
Here comes a noob question I guess. Is it possible by moding the nook tablet say with CW7 to use the usb stick in order to attach a usb stick that will give 3g internet? Similarly to what you do with a laptop when you need 3g capabilities.
I'd imagine one would rather use a portable hotspot isn't that pretty much the standard now-a-days?
Well, since I am will be using it in situations that the less I carry the better (i.e., borring army service) I would rather use the stick. Still I didn't know about the hotspot. Good to know they exist.
How would you connect the stick?
if you are carrying around a rooted android based smartphone you can always tether your nook to that for 3g
OMAP4430 CPU, whick Nook Tablet has, supports USB OTG, so could act as the host for 3g stick. However, there're many obstacles on that way:
1. There may be few USB ports in OMAP, not all having OTG capability, and it's unclear which is connected externally on NT.
2. I personally yet have to see a microUSB to USB female cable, if someone has a link, I'd appreciate it.
3. You most likely would need to recompile kernel to enable OTG support as well as drivers for 3g modems.
4. Would need 3g connection app on your Nook (suppose the easiest, as there should be few for Android).
So, it may be too complicated if you just look towards using it at once, but for should would be a fun hacking project ;-)
Thanks guys for the suggestions. I guess it did not occur to me the whole tethering deal (probably because nook is the my first android powered device). I guess I will go with that option once I get a new android phone.
I heard Nexus 7 had chance to connect 3G OTG, will the nook tablet have any chance?

Hello. Ive been following a few threads on here and was wondering if anyone has any first hand experience with LAN speeds on any of the Mini PC type devices. I could care less about the wifi as i plan on using it to replace my power hungry core2quad server. I figure for my uses, something with an RK3188 at 1.6 paired with 2Gb ram should perform well for what I need.
Ill be running an SSH server, web server, DynDNS updater, Torrent, VNC, Maybe personal FTP - SMB Access, DLNA , and hopefully VPN when its available. Ive already gotten most things working using my Tegra2 Acer A500 so I know its possible. Servers Ultimate Pro is a pretty decent set of server tools. Primarily though it will be my personal web host along with SSH access from home as I use SSH with a port redirect to create proxies while at work. Network bandwidth is a crucial concern.
My issue on the Acer is the network speed ( And lags torrenting ) . It struggles keeping up with everything. I debated on a Lan to USB adapter, but I dont plan on actually using it for this purpose. My 4 year old wasn't behaving so I grounded him from it..... Testing things in the meantime
Ive looked at some of the RK3188 devices, as well as the Mele A1000G which has the allwinner A31 CPU paired with a SATA cradle on top ( A BIG plus as its supposedly a native Sata card and not a USB to Sata type ). I asked in another forum about the CX-921 RK3188 device and he said his Lan speeds were only 6-7 Mbps....... Definitely not acceptable for my purposes.
Does anyone have any thoughts, opinions, recommendations, or first hand knowledge?
As you can see by my history here, I am not a novice...... been around a while. Hopefully you dont see this thread as a " Noob " looking for what to buy lol.

actually not even a31 got data lines for directly drive a sata interface or gigabit ethernet, you need to fall down to a20
search infos about CubieTruck.

Must be usb to sata internally. Still a nice design. Regardless...... a31 supports gigabit ethernet according to its chip designer. Im more interested in bandwidth / stability than sata. USB to sata adapters should still support 60/70 Mbps Data read rate. Thanks for the info though

Pyraxiate,
Let me ask you something - could you be able to boot the Android inside Mini PC without HDMI connection ? Because I also intent to use Servers Ultimate Pro inside my MK 809ii as a PC CAR to serve as collector and orchestrator of all things and publish the navigation and information via HTML5 server to an iPAD mini as console ... but I'm not able to boot it without HDMI + keyboard + mouse connection ... HELP

Hi!
I recently bought a USB-Ethernet Adaptater (this one actually). I also just rooted my phone, trying to follow this tutorial.
But I just read that Android 6.0.x phones don't have the "netcfg" binary, and are supposed to support natively USB-Ethernet.
But I don't see the <...> icon I'm supposed to get when connected. Looks like Samsung don't want us to use the driver. So how can I do?
Thanks
I use the ASIX 88772B which can be found all over ebay. It uses an app to connect. Yours maybe have the same chipset and thus likely it will work with this app.

However, since not all Android apps recognize that you are on ethernet you need the Fake Wifi module from Xposed to get it to work.
This is on Android 4.x
On Android 6 it maybe different sine they maybe support native ethernet. I don't have USB OTG working yet because of USB-C issues but I hope to get it working.
Better to buy this, I think : HooToo
