Hi XDA people
Is there a way to use my Realme 6 as a workstation, connected to a monitor/TV, keyboard and a mouse?
I've seen some adapters that have USB type C input and USB type A and HDMI output.
Can someone suggest a way to do this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
Is it possible to have a microphone input using the usb connector?
I know that it is possible to output the audio via the usb (this thread) and looking at the data sheet of the FSA8290A I have learned that it should be possible to use the Vcc pin of the usb also for MIC input but it didn't work for me.
Has anyone succeed in doing so?
I'd like to figure out how to connect my Yamaha MIDI keyboard to my Asus tf101 tablet for recording via hardwired USB.
I've scoured the web looking for an app or solution to this and have come up generally blank, I've tried all the free midi controller apps, but they only seem to support Wifi or Bluetooth, which my keyboard is unable to do.
I'd like to eliminate my computer as a middleman (If I'm at my computer I'd just use that) and be able to use my tablet to record on the go!
Any ideas/thoughts/help/wisdom/proverbs/ninjas would be greatly appreciated
Device Info:
ASUS Transformer tf101 running
ICS 4.0.3 Rooted
I have the dock with 2 USB 2.0 ports that I am connecting to the connecter with.
Cable:
Amazon: USB MIDI Input Output Cable Converter PC Notebook
Works fine on computer and no issues so far via usb.
Thanks!

Any Ideas?

Hi, I have a solution for You.
Download Grand Piano Pro from google play store works perfectly.
Download Floating Browser if You want to do something on top of the app.
I'm using worlde panda 61 midi keyboard via usb on my Transformer Prime
Yep AFAIK, Grand Piano and the Organ app from the same developer are the only 2 apps that supports USB Midi at the moment.
I made a quick video to show it working here

There is also USB Midi Monitor, but that is just a utility rather than an instrument or recorder.
I am really keen for more apps to come out so we can record using a USB midi controller.
Does anyone know any more apps that support USB Midi devices?
thanks,
Rich
I presume this should also work if I'm connecting my keyboard via a MIDI to USB converter then to the phone?
Thanks

If it's a standard MIDI device (ie. if you can plug it into a Windows or Mac machine and it shows up as a midi controller without needing to install any special drivers) then it should work.
Excellent thanks. I've purchased the otg cable, I'll report back.
Thanks.

Hi!
My cable arrived and I had a go at connecting up my midi keyboard. After some time I realised that the phone appeared not to be putting enough power through to the midi-usb converter that I use on my PC usually (plug and play), such that the led indicator was not lighting. I bought Grand Piano and Midi Monitor, both showed no response. When I open Midi Monitor there is a pop up that says, no MIDI device detected.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
You could try putting a powered USB hub in between the midi-usb converter and the OTG cable.
That kind of takes away the portability aspect though as you'll be tied to a power point.
But if you have one available, you could at least confirm if that is the issue.
If that does solve the issue, you could try to power the USB hub with a portable power pack... but I'm not sure i that would work...
Thank you thank you for the app listing, Gpp works for midi detection, and is pretty much what I was looking for. It didn't need any power on my tf101. I'll be sure to hit that thanks button at midnight x)
I have a TF300T and a Yamaha keyboard that I connect to my computer via USB (no drivers needed).
I don't have the keyboard for the tablet so I was thinking about buying the USB OTG adapter and connect the piano directly. Is this possible? Anyone has the USB OTG adapter and tried this?
Thanks.
In Yamaha smartpianist my USB not recognizing my piano how can I fix that issue help me out
Does anyone know of any USB Hubs without ethernet that work with the Nexus Player. I'm currently connected with the nexus player 5ghz AC and get 150megabits , so no need for ethernet. Do you guys chain a micro usb to usb cable to a hub to get this working? Products, tips and info here please. Thanks in advance

I would like to know that too! Also, how did you test the connection speed on your NP?

I use a basic 4 port USB 3.0 hub also from Sabrent (doesnt have the on/off buttons on it) and pair it with an OTG cable and it works fine. I have a wireless mouse, sixaxis or ds4 controller, and a 64GB flash drive plugged into it.
i recently discovered scrcpy which imo is an excellent, and superior, alternative to vysor, teamviewer and the like (for my needs, i.e. simple remote control of android).
here's the thing tho, it works beautifully when i connect my pc and android directly using a usb type-c (android) to usb type-a (pc) cable, but it won't work when i connect an otg usb hub to the android and, from there, use a usb type-a cable to connect to my pc.
is this a well known limitation of otg hubs? or should this work? the usb type-a cable i'm using between the otg hub and pc is 2.0, do i need 3.0? or is there a special type-a otg cable i'm unfamiliar with?
i see that these is a way to use scrcpy via wifi using adb tcpip command, but i can't get it to work, and the github scrcpy thread doesn't seem to be very active.... perhaps there's a way to get it to work over ethernet as opposed to wifi? anyway, any help re the otg hub question would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT - problem solved: adb over ethernet instead of usb or wifi.
connected my android (galaxy view) to my network (ethernet) using the otg usb port and now, combined with the "adb over ethernet" app from the play store that i just discovered, the adb connection between my android and pc functions just as if they were connected by a usb cable, no more having to first connect the usb to get wifi to kick in, only to have to repeat this process again and again.
fwiw i finally got the samsung sidesync to work by installing the apk, which i thought would be a satisfactory alternative to scrcpy, and it was ok, but it's very intrusive on the pc side and the mirrored android display isn't that great, distorted, plus it has a chunky blue frame... but now i can use scrcpy, it's so lightweight, and the mirrored display is excellent, both snappy and scalable.
Can i use a type-c (android)to type-c (laptop) to use scrcpy

For others who find this in a search, you can get scrcpy to open up (and then kill the console to get it out of the way) on Android up to Android 11 using the "--tcpip=192.168.0.2:5555" option, but there's new capabilities in Android 12 now that eliminate totally the need for the initial USB connection.
In Android 12 you can also use scrcpy completely over Wi-Fi without first establishing the adb connection over USB like you need to do with Android 11.
There are new commands in the Android 12 Developer options to enable everything to be done over Wi-Fi which I've been using since May.
Hi,
I want to control my Motorola Moto Z Play over USB Debugging with my Notebook. The Problem is that I must confirm that the Notebook is trustable, but my Touchscreen doesn't function. So I must confirm it with a keyobard or mouse after I connect it with the Notebook.
I testet a USB Hub: Smartphone -> OTG Adapter -> USB Hub -> Notebook (usb male to male cable) + Keyboard.
The Keyboard has functioned and my phone was charging, but the confirm button doesnt come. I also couldn't see the phone as an adb device.
Can I solve this Problem or do I have to buy a new screen?
Best regards
motozmod
And what exactly is your laptop?
