USB OTG Problems. Kernel? Rom? Adapter? What's wrong? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
I am running Omega 7.0 ROM with the stock Kernel it came with (if it came with one... if not then I have stock Kernel).
I bought this adapter yesterday. It won't pick anything up. Do you have to get a OTG type of adapter or should this have worked? Is it the ROM or the Kernel? Anyone know?

Ask in the rom thread , Try a different kernel .

Yeah I did, a lot of people say OTG should be working, OTG isn't working for them, or they don't know.
Pretty much mixed answers. So I didn't think it was the ROM. It might be the adapter.

I have Omega V7 and otg works perfectly with my adapter.

Yeah it's the adapter. You need one that specifys otg as a feature

Alright thanks. Didn't know it had to be OTG labaled.

in the thread they recommend an another Kernel, but i have a different rooted Kernel installed on my Phone, can i simply install the new Kernel over the other with Odin?

ics mhl and otg

Hi. Can someone help me out with a rom that i need please.
The problem i am having is that im not sure my cable is working.
I have searched and found out that the i9100xxlph has mhl and otg working but i cant get them to work.
Is there anyone that can confirm an ics rom that has both otg and mhl working?
Cheers
Steven
Oh and preferably a no wipe version as i dont have a cable for odin anymore.
In resurrection remix work mhl and otg, but you need a full wipe

I'm quite confident that you are wrong. Feel free to prove me wrong with evidence.
Also not sure why you bumped an old thread to post this as MHL and OTG work fine on pretty much all stock ICS ROMs.

[Q] About Siyah kernel & MHL

Is this kernel can cause some display (at TV) issues?
I'm using samsung STOCK ROM [LPG], with the original kernel I had no issues - tried 2 different devices, each had different samsung stock rom [but both 4.0.3].
With siyah kernel at both devices [one had 3.3.3d, second 3.4.1] I had some little disturbing issue sometimes, when loading pages / rotate screen seems like the transmission is lost for a few seconds.
Tried at the same TV , with 2 MHL [one original] and had the same situation...
Can the kernel cause this issue?
any way to fix it ? [except changing kernel]
mhl best works with stock ROM/kernel. I think it it's ROM specific. Some roms support it, some don't

both devices with stock ROM - LPG and LP7 , when I installed siyah kernel iv notice this issue.... so maybe its a kernel fault ? [with stock kernel had no problem]
even though this kernel should work fine with mhl [its working but with little issue of "lose connection" sometimes]
Anyone notice this 'little issue' too with siyah kernel (and stock ROM) ? or can confirm its the kernel cause it ?
Yeah

Althought Im running a non stock ROM, wich is an aberration called "Aberration" (lol) It cane with a Siyah kernel, and I have those connection losses that you mention. Also, the overall MHL quality is horrible.
Are there any XDA links to a stock ROM AND kernel?

Problem for displaying screen on TV

Hi,
I've bought a MHL/HDMI cable for displaying SII screen on TV. Unfortunately I only get a blocked image!
As recommended, my cable is linked to the charger and I also disabled "USB debbuging".
Any idea? Thanks in advance!
Which Rom are you running? Only Samsung based roms have full MHL functionality. Aosp doesnt have at all, and Aokp is rather problematic.

Its the infinity ROM based on CM10...
So no solution?

When you installed that ROM, there were big warnings about reading known issues.

not in particular.
Here is the thread with the ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712961
What is a Samsung based ROM?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
It quite clearly states bugs, which if you bothered to read includes all CM9 bugs. I presume the "dev" means CM10 but both don't support MHL anyway.
hi. just install a dual boot-able kernel such as siyah, which works great and install a samsung rom on 2nd partition for these ocasions when you use hdmi..

Thank you all for your help!
Is there an example of Samsung ROM?
WanamLite.
Samsung roms are ones that are based on Samsung stock firmware.

OTG Host mode

I've been searching for months now on this and had no luck. I'm running the s2 s959g ( straight talk model) which is similar to the i777 model, paranoid rom , and sti kernel. I've made my otg cable but I can't seem to find a kernel that supports it. Any suggestions?

I know Shostock supports it, and I am pretty sure Mr.Cook's will too. You need a Samsung based ROM for OTG. This will limit you to 4.1.2 ROMS I believe.

Well snap that's where I was going wrong. Didn't know it was limited to Samsung based Roms only. Really thought it was just something that had to do with the kernel thanks for that!
