I have Ethernet up and running on my nexus 7 but can't seem to on my S3. I bought a different otg cable specific to the s3, but the Ethernet adapter just doesn't want to play ball. Is this even possible on an s3? If so, has anyone got it working, and using what adapter?
I'm unlocked, rooted and on 4.1.2.
Do I need a custom rom such as cm10?

I have never been able to hook up Ethernet to my s3. Also look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710147 they can't do it to. what kernel you running? try siyah.
Thanks for the reply. I've moved onto cm10.1 nightly and still can't get it working. Netcfg doesn't list the USB interface when its plugged in
Kernel is 3.03.31-cm-gc3e546e
Any help much appreciated. I am planning on wiring a cat5 point into my bedroom, but prob won't bother if I can't get it working on the s3

Hi,
the MHL HDMI output is very important for me. Does someone know if the new XXLPQ Roms support MHL?
regards
Andre
I just tried with mine, first time kernel panicked, I had siyah b06 kernel flashed.
I then flashed the stock kernel, tried kernel didn't panic however my TV just gave the following output: unsupported signal.
So my guess is NO.
However this could be that I have a faulty MHL cable though.
Can anyone verify this ?
I got nothing on my tv. Original cable, charge function works just fine though. I'm running XWLP2-CL258785 [email protected] #3. I don't get it. I even tried it with 2.3.6, no result either. I'm pretty pissed.
I just want to hook it up to my tv and use a BT Mouse as a controller (mouse doesn't work properly eiter). Thinks this firmware is not so good as i thought.
I will try it with a friends phone (HTC Sensation XE) later this week just to be shure. If i don't get any image eiter maybe the cable is broken.
I doubt that your cable and mine are faulty what are the odds ?
Anyways let me know when you try on your friend's sensation.

Can anyone confirm if the USB host feature works with the Galaxy S3.
Specifically, I'm interested in attaching a USB Keyboard to the device.
After upgrading from honeycomb to ICS on my wife's Galaxy S2 I found that the USB Host function no longer works and I can no longer connect a USB keyboard. (It used to work rather well).
After checking the XDA forums I see that I must root the phone and use another kernel which I'd rather not do given that the S2 is not my phone.
I'll be picking up the Galaxy S3 once the Blue-32gb arrives here in Taiwan so I'm also wondering if anyone can say whether or not the USB Host function works and if anyone has tried out a USB keyboard.
Any advice would be swell
Thanks
Works for me unrooted mate. Had a flash drive connected with no problems

Thanks for the reply.
After upgrading to ICS on my wife's S2 the phone continues to read USB Flash drives just fine, but it could not (cannot) read any other devices including USB Keyboards or a USB Mouse.
I want to be able to use my fold-able ASUS USB Keyboard to type documents on the G3 and from what I've seen, the screen is plenty big to be able to make my dream of 'ultra-portable' document typing a reality.
This, plus the fact that I haven't found any fold-able Blue Tooth keyboard that seems to work very well with the S2.

I made my own usb host cable and everything I have tried is working. Wireless keyboard and mouse, memory stick, external harddrive, ps3 controller etc.
Hi guys, I got an oem MHL to hdmi cable from eBay, one specifically for the galaxy s3.
I received it today and while the phone seems to detect it's attached to a screen (audio set to hdmi out, landscape mode), the two devices I can connect it to both register nothing connected.
Is there something missing? The first device is a monitor using a hdmi to dvi adapter, the second is a 720p tv with hdmi in. The tv allows me to select the hdmi it's plugged into but says there's no signal.
Does anyone have any ideas?

maybe the adapter does not work with the S3 after all.
Maybe you will find some solution in the accessories threat or here
Can you post up the link to the advert you bought it from?

Thanks. I think it should work, the item description is pretty clear.. http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com.au/viewitem?itemId=200829302467
I might see if I can test it on some more tvs. There was a suggestion it may not work with a 720p device.
Sad thing is, they're all Samsung screens.
Are you powering the device from another USB port.
All MHL adapters and cables for the Galaxy S2/3 need to be powered by an external USB port.

Ok it looks like it might be an issue with the ROM, using an AOKP build of JB 4.1.2
Apparently it doesn't support the TV out - shame, I thought I'd finally found the ROM I was going to stick with
Does anyone know a way of getting it working under AOKP?
sorry man, but only on stock roms you can use tv-out. At least for now, lets hope the sources promised for november include mhl tv-out propietary driver from samsung.

Thanks man - I might go to omega's stock-based rom and see if I can get any love with that. Cheers for the help everyone
Edit: For anyone finding this by search later, using a stock ROM does fix the issue. God I can't wait to go back to AOKP though, stock is terrible

If you get the cheap ones there's a huge chance of it not working just from looking through feedback on the Internet. Just spend a bit extra and get a samsung one.
Ive tried mine on many different roms and kernels and it always works.
P.s has anyone managed to get netflix in 16.9 widescreen using the mhl adaptor on jelly bean?:crying:
It's the samsungs 1, that i bought from my carrier. And adapter is fine since my friend got it work with note 2 :/

Have you guys get this MHL feature enabled on AOKP roms?
I'm currently running Slimbean 4.2.2 and I have no MHL

You never will have it working.stock or bust!
I have tried two different cables, every app on the market, thumb drives, powered harddrives, sd card adapter, and even a mouse and keyboard I cannot for the life of me get my phone to recognize any of them. I am on tranquil Rom with crpalmers latest kernel. I have also tried zorbos's kernel. Am I missing something stupidly simple?
I'm on ecliptic with crpalmers kernel, and its working fine for me. I think OTG compatibility is in the kernel, but the ROM has to be able to look to the kernel for it. Try a different ROM or kernel setup.

so I tried your setup and it did not work. I went and got a powered usb hub and tried it with that and it did not work. I plugged my otg cable into my buddys S3 and it worked immediately lol. maybe its just not meant for me
Might have a bum cable. I use a samsung cable I made into a otg and never have any issues. With 4.3 and cepalmers kernel. Also used tranquil with crpalmers and beastmode and they work flawless with the cable I converted. So problem might be with your cable.
StickMount??? It works for me... look it up in the play store.
I never had to use stickmount on my DNA.
Never had a problem here. I think there are Samsung specific otg cables just like there are Samsung mhl cables.

Samsung specific stuff? That would explain my MHL problems with my Samsung cable.

So I had a rooted galaxy s3 connected it to the head unit with an mhl adapter and worked no problem. Now I have upgraded to an S5 and I can connect it through BT, but when I connect it with HDMI and the mhl adapter it connects then disconnects a second later. This keeps happening over and over in a loop. I am trying to use the Pandora app and run it through the head unit. I also bought the newer white adapter and it does the same thing. I tested both mhl adapters and my S5 to my TV and that works perfectly. Anyone have any experience with this?
Did I post this in the correct section?
Anyone? No one can help me out? I've been searching forever!
bump, still need help...
From what I e heard you don't need adapter as S5 does music through USB now. Haven't tried but others have

So just try to connect it to the head unit directly through USB? I'm going to try that tomorrow and report back. Thanks!
