Top 10 Things YOU can do with USB OTG connector - Galaxy Note 7

[@azamean]

For the CD drive, that was a USB-Y cable it came with, which means the power from one standard USB port 2.0 port (the OTG coverts Type-C to 2.0) is not enough. You'd need to connect an extra USB power source to the other cable, or use a different CD drive. That's why it would only turn on but not read.

[@bazzerker35s]

I can imagine how much more useful to have that special USB connection for the Note 7 or any other micro USB cellphones, tablets and iPads to easily be able to connect a USB PS4, XBOX One and mobile controllers to your cellphone for emulators and other games on your mobile devices

[@OfficialHiraku]

2:34 when you forget there's an LED light on your phone...

[@archived1292]

7:37 reminds of the time when windows phone tells you to "Insert installation CD and restart", I didn't think it would have went THAT far!

[@limpkit2011]

i would like to say this is all because of android, not just the OTG cable.

[@TerrasClip]

Without the phone supporting USB-OTG it won't work.

[@BzCzajka]

But I will still stick with my iPhone. Lol

[@TanTan-ir9xh]

you are right, as long as your phone supports otg. my $100 phone can do almost all of the things in this video. only the hdd and i guess the cd drive too are not working on my phone since it needs an external power source to run those.

[@Darewolfy]

+Czajka go and f yourself with your iPhone that is a piece of crap 2016 is the beginning of the android era I switched form iPhone In 2016 BC iPhone is the past tehnicaly and usability wise!!! I switched did you? 😆

[@sandeepkhandelwal4930]

not all android devices can charge other phones even with otg enabled

[@emilkowalskiARTpl]

connect usb hub to otg and you can build own mini computer. in the field i use passive usb hub too connect mouse, card reader and usb stick to do photo backup from my camera.

[@Beautifulblessings88]

Thank for showing some of these tips I pre-order the note 7 the Blue Coral and got it last Friday I love it so far

[@TWAN330]

can you give links or names to all the stuff you used in this vid.. i want to buy everything you had for my n7. the light the fan the opticaldrive etc plss

[@MrExpert]

all these items are regulars one. just purchase any of them available at your locality.

[@kernelpanic2887]

11. You can charge your power bank with the smartphone 😂😂#Usefull

[@NoureddineAmri]

and then charge the smartphone back with the power bank, that way you have infinite power

[@kernelpanic2887]

+Noureddine Amri I tryed it, after the 4. recharge of my handy qas the bank after 3% off

[@issachocolate5116]

+Noureddine Amri ... ohms or resistance exists and power is lost at about a 10% rate..

[@adarshsingh764]

+Noureddine Amri no there will be some power loss due to resistance and a phone can't charge a power bank completely because of a comparatively smaller battery.

[@bchap5368]

OK anyone. please spell it out in crayon very SD lowly (sorry)I just bought a s7active. I want to some how attach it to my vizio smart tv and watch what's on my phone on my 75" without WIFI. PLease hold the sarcasm (which I find humorous in good taste) until I get an exact straight answer please? What do I need? Where do I purchase? What is the top of the line to purchase for this?

[@rabbitdrink]

Why would you use the usb lights when you have a built in flashlight?

[@LynxBlack]

You might be a vlogger and want the extra lighting

[@MazwiZwane]

1.You might be addicted to selfies and want to take some in the dark with somewhat decent lighting. 2.You might want to use the flashlight for extended periods but don't want to overheat your phone. 3.They are mostly brighter that the phone's native flash light and light distribution is broader making them good side lamps. 4.Some usb flashlights come with a physical switch so you can conserve your phone's battery life with out disconnecting it from OTG, so with that in mind you might want that instant side lamp without going the long route to unlock your phone, pull the drop down menu and toggle the flash light. some phones have the flash light toggle even deeper than that, some don't even have a flash light toggle and requires you to download a third party app from the play store or use google now. so a USB flash light is a bit underrated if you ask me, there's so much convenience having it around in your drawer

[@cateatsushi3008]

the usb lights can be brighter

[@Mickieshelton]

+Mazwi Zwane note 7 selfie has flash though

[@LynxBlack]

Johnny Patrick LEDs will always be brighter than a display

[@Sudhabhavani23]

Thx to that otg cable (good company/high quality one)

[@christesterman]

Connect a fan....best tip ever....Other then the stupid fan I was wondering what that thing was good for. Good video. USB Lan adapter is actually a really good idea.

[@SuperMan19867]

ive tried even more with my sony, so miss some things , you also can connect IR adapter , LAN adapter, midi(like piano) . gamepad etc.. about description some phone do less some more it depend android ver brand and more

[@JoseKarloGonzales]

I have been doing this in my Note 5. Thanks for the heads up.

[@sajinjozfsj4394]

hard disk can be sopported by changing the format NTFS to exfat..

[@Rueuhy]

I'm using the Note 7 now and really happy with it. I'm curious if this will work with ios when the new iPhone 7 comes out with it's c connector.

[@skylarmccauley7237]

The iPhone 7 will NOT come with USB C and even if you're about to plug a keyboard into an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch it won't work. Sandisk has USB Flash Drives that work with iPad 4 and up, iPod Touch 5G and up, and iPhone 5 and up.

[@marc6340]

I use Macs and windows and I always format external drives with FAT32. Macs can read both, and windows and Android read them natively.

[@johndrewcallanta3515]

Amazing!! 😨😨😨😨😨😨😃👍👌

[@LeonJohannDias]

You have forgotten the most important thing: A game controller!

[@keithupton5341]

Yes! My PS3 controller will connect with the cable, or Bluetooth.

[@ProfStuartHalliday]

These work fine. :)

[@deviladvoc]

if i connect my mouse can i use it for fps games on my phone?

[@PixlRainbow]

+derek khor only very few apps actually support fps gaming with mouse. One example is quake3 for android

[@cateatsushi3008]

+Keith Upton Do you use root to connect it via Bluetooth though?

[@AngelMartinez-qs3cf]

Hey cool demo, I have a question will be able play videos from the hard drive? or compact flash drive?

[@hugo112max]

It will play your files via USB yes.

[@silviuc.5551]

and you forgot also about using an external sound card as microphone for Screen Recording?? Will it work?

[@morshalimshaikh5641]

Ur HDD is not corrupted,it is NTFS formated(by default if u have not changed). And android supports only FAT32 format. Try formatting it in FAT32 format. Surely it will work.

Dude I was doing these with my S2 already :D So, this exists since 2010 or even older...

[@karabidihingia2989]

Should i buy portable optical drive from online??? Do u prescribe it?

[@brownhudson13]

This is by far the most informative Note 7 video I've seen! BRAVO!

[@YoungBlaze]

does that come with the phone?

[@MrNorsewise]

very interesting can I hook it up to my endoscope? I'm serious I have an endoscope will it work? And no I don't use it for that I use it for inspecting in between rafters Kama gutters etcetera etcetera etcetera

[@omkarkate6363]

hey from where did u purchase the type c otg adapter & for how much ? Thanks

[@MrExpert]

tht was included with note 7.

[@AJITHULLA]

usb on the go only supports fat32 file system .....the hard drives uses ntfs which windows uses and also other mac file system wont work buy new hard drive upto 2tb and format it on pc to fat32 system and you can use it on otg on most mobile phone same reason cd couldn't be read as it uses non fat32 file system

[@MrExpert]

+VlogTimes #Creative try speaking in ur video its a huge difference

[@kquote03]

actually they are hfs+ which is the file system for OSX

[@byranotieno]

Good presentation on what OTG connector does. BTW on #4 the actual reason is because android doesn't support any other file format than FAT that is why it wont read your portable drives.

[@davidpanic]

and ext4 on lollipop+

[@ProfStuartHalliday]

Joysticks work too..... :)

[@ProfStuartHalliday]

Nope. It can read NTFS and FAT32 no problem. It's a power consumption issue.

[@GadGetHackss]

there's an app that can make it support all formats but it needs root

[@mohsinsyedglobal643]

+Stuart Halliday maybe Western Digital External hard drive might work better compared to seagate.

[@gaurangshukla1295]

check ur things before making a video ( CD & HDD)

[@AyushYadav-jh4xh]

i totally agree

[@MrExpert]

It works. Check here kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKnSlWemftqmqNE

+VlogTimes #Creative Sorry bro if it hurts . u were right .i wana ask u that what is the price of this portable disk reader and what is its technical name thanx in advance

[@ProfStuartHalliday]

CD readers, external Hard Drives and some large capacity flash sticks probably will not work 100% as they require too much power from a humble smart phone USB connector. This has been a know issue with ordinary laptops for years. The manufacturers just don't allow the socket to supply the correct amount of current (USB 2 = 0.5A, USB3 = 0.9A). You're lucky if you can get 0.3A. That's why the USB CD reader comes with 2x USB A connectors as often one can't supply enough power. The trick to get them to work is to use a powered USB hub however.

[@in_the_pines]

will this also work with samsung galaxy s6 edge+? I've already transferred files with the USB A to micro usb adapter and stuck that into a flash drive that had a sim card input. (basically, I didn't have a laptop around and wanted to bypass it) Used my 64gig SD from my old phone and copy>pasted all my important files(contacts, apps, photos, music, documents, etc) and it worked just fine.

[@in_the_pines]

I ment 'SD card' input.

[@in_the_pines]

spoke too soon as I wasn't finished with the video. Anyways, j just wanted to know if all of the other stuff would work. I don't see why j it wouldn't.

[@in_the_pines]

Oh and also, when hooking up the Web cam do you have the recording features that you do with the regular camera is. slow mothin, 360 view, panoramic, and other effects?

[@shresharma2403]

DVD ROM, HDD were not corrupted. They required more power than your phone can supply check out your phone and optical and HDD drive requirments. I have checked that.

[@MrExpert]

both working check this kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHO5hIuFrb1jasU and this kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKnSlWemftqmqNE

[@chariots8x230]

Can you please provide us with the link to where we can purchase the USB OTG connector that you are using?

[@Magnanux]

[@creativetux]

Amazon has them, just get a Micro USB version instead of USB-C to work with other Android phones.

[@RasenganLofi]

lol i was thinking the same thing

[@ZenMinus]

One dollar each on eBay...

[@chariots8x230]

CreativeTux Thank you for the tips!

[@frankyvee1]

Will this work on the Samsung S7 Edge as well?

[@ankushnarang5040]

yes it does

[@firefly2472]

if it suport otg, YES

[@MegaMalik90]

I think so.

[@Leif_YT]

Yes, Samsung shipped the S7 with the adapter so you don't have to buy one.

[@vulcanus9384]

android device. It should work.

[@YoungBlaze]

why did you blurr your location in the beginning just to not blurr it in the end?

[@AlessandroCussino]

I love Samsung and Android ! Try to do this things with an Apple peoduct with out jailbreack ...

[@MrMazen1995]

Thanks for video.. what about print paper?

[@A-Viking]

Those hard drives are most likely just in NTFS type format which is a Microsoft owned format. Google should really stop having Android say that NTFS drives are corrupt and need formatting. (NTFS can work if phone is rooted and you run a 3rd party program to allow access to NTFS type storage). The exFAT type format would have been allowed on the Android Phone but then it might not work with your smart TV (like my 2014 Philips TV) if you want to be safe and have your mobile storage universally supported you need to format in

[@0x1EGEN]

You can download a NTFS file manger from the google play store if you wish to access NTFS formatted drives.

[@shenan007]

android reads ntfs and fat32 perfectly.

[@AcasualGamer1]

Google does allow NTFS. Nexus and Huawei flagships read/write NTFS perfectly. Problem is that most smartphone manufacturers block it. Samsung is no exception.

[@sandeepkhandelwal4930]

for reading the hard drive use mlusb app or total commander app with paragon_ums extension

[@MrExpert]

Check this kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHO5hIuFrb1jasU

[@sandeepkhandelwal4930]

+VlogTimes #Creative i get it that you need to format it to read it in android but does it format in ntfs format? because when i tried to connect my ntfs drive it didn't got detected hence i installed the above said apps on my s7 edge

[@sandeepkhandelwal4930]

+VlogTimes #Creative excellent video though. thanks for showing us the prowess of the galaxy's i would like to point out here is that it is also possible to transfer data from galaxy to other phone via otg

[@gsp3987]

You missed, connecting USB controllers, E.G., wireless XBOX 360 Controller (with USB wireless dongle).

[@cateatsushi3008]

yup. I do that to play GTA on my phone

[@gqlovalova]

yup that should have been in the top 3. overall a boring list. a few on the list were not practical at all.

[@OG_MrRubberDucky]

Xbox One controller can be connected too but it requires so much shit to do.

[@CarlosGonzalez-zj2kl]

+Szymonek A Taki please tell. I wanna do it

[@gqlovalova]

it isn't unique to GN 7. This is a capability with any OTG and Android OS. Older androids may need additional drivers, but if you're using Android 4.4 and above most likely you can do same.

[@lostgleammedia]

could a keyboard work aswell.

[@ZHR1234]

what about a small usb microphone? you think that will work?

[@TheVampireb0y]

No, your HDDs are formatted in NTFS, which android does not support natively. Any drive over 32gb is formated in NTFS.

[@lordofdoom11]

I had that same issue with the HDD drive not opening or showing that it needs to be formatted with an older Galaxy S4. You need to format it to FAT32 first, then copy any files you want on hand to use with the phone.This is due to the fact that android does not support NTFS (the file system most likely used in any and all HDDs)
