Hi all,
Can anyone with a USB to Ethernet adapter please test if this works with the Galaxy S4 using an OTG USB cable? I have read it works with the Nexus 7 but would love to know if it works with the Galaxy S4. Would be quite handy to hook up the galaxy directly to my 100mb internet.
Thank you.
S4 tested with two USB Ethernet modules. unsuccessfully

I tried with some generic USB - 10/100 Ethernet (its working with Android 4.0.1 in Point of View TV Stick) and Delock Gigabit USB (not testetd with Android previously) but not working with S4. I check OTG cable connecting USB flash drive and it works with S4, same with USB mouse and USB keyboard. This Ethernet 10/100 USB module after connecting to S4 lights up so its powered but S4 does not looks like recognize it. i have to small knowledge or S4 hasn.t some drivers.

Thanks for trying! A few people have tried with no luck unfortunately. Hopefully someone can create a loadable module that contains ethernet drivers for the S4!
Cheers

Have you tried this with a powered USB hub?
Just tested - negative result.

S4 connected via OTG to extrenally powered USB HUB. Ethernet USB adapter connected to Hub. Nothing happens on S4.
To verify connect USB Flash drive to USB hub and its sucessfully detected and browsed on S4 (so hub itself working).
Tested USB Ethernets:
USB Ethernet 10/100 "JP1081B"
USB Ethernet 10/100/1000 "Delock 61730"

I thought that would likely be the result, but always worth checking non-working USB OTG stuff with a powered hub.
I have a couple of different ethernet adapters, driverless ones that are confirmed working with the few Android devices (tablets) that have been reported to work with ethernet connections, will post results when I get them (I expect them not to work).

Fingers crossed but I have my doubts too unfortunately.
Any updates to this interesting thread?
I too would like to get this going with my new Samsung S4, mine is via Sprint, if that matters.
I have tried to OTG cable w/ a USB and StickMount Pro, that works.
BTW, my S4 is rooted via the CF Auto Root method.
has anyone actually found a driver for this?
Possible???
Is this in any way possible?? I am planning to buy one adapter for my s4. Is it worth buying??
I would be interested. The device recognizes it but does not work with this program Ethernet Google Play.
Forgive my language I'm using Google Translator Spanish to English.
I saw a post to introduce myself.
Thank you
Thank you All. Following is how I got LAN Ethernet to work on my Galaxy S4. Some of these steps are very risky and may wipe out all your phone data or make your phone unusable. So I am not recommending you to try it. I am only sharing what I did in my phone to make it work with OTG Ethernet. Also the procedures are very device and version specific. Even same model phones with different Build version and Android version may give different results.
My Devices:
Samsung Galaxy S4 Model Number: SGH-I337M
Android version: 5.0.1 (Lollipop) SDK 21
CPU Architecture: ARMv7
Build Fingerprint: jfltevl/jfltecan
BobJGear OTG Ethernet
ASIX AX88772A Chipset
Following is the Summary of the key steps and troubleshooting. You can search online to find the APKs and Installers or to know more details.
Install Droid Info App to get details of the phone CPU
Install Kingo ROOT App on the Phone and Root the Galaxy S4
Install Odin3 v3.13.1 on Windows 10 PC
Use Odin3 to install “Team Win Recovery Project” (TWRP) on the phone. TWRP was necessary to install XPOSED Framework. The specific version of TWRK that I could install is TWRP 3.1.1.0. I installed it using the file with following file name:
“twrp-3.1.1-0-jfltecan.img.tar”.
The other newer version of TWRP did not work. It kept going back to default recovery menu. Also uncheck “Auto Reboot” in the Odin Options and manually reboot phone to Recovery mode after installing TWRP from Odin.
If you get following message when trying to start TWRP in Recovery mode, Just wait few minutes and TWRP will start.
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORING
SET WARRANT BIT RECOVERY
During TWRP initial setup Swipe to “allow modification” to System partition
Install XPOSED Installer using apk with following file name. This is an App used to install XPOSED Framework.
"Xposed-Installer-3.0-Alpha-4-2016.10.16.apk"
After installing it, it showed warning that it is not compatible with my phone and android version. Leave the XPOSED Installer installed. Use alternate method to install XPOSED Framework using TWRP.
Install XPOSED Framework using TWRP. I installed the XPOSED Framework version 87.1. That is the only version that worked. I used zip file with following file name
“xposed-v87.1-samsung-5.0.x-sdk21-by-dkcldark-arm.zip”
The other versions of XPOSED Framework was giving following errors.
The installed firmware is not deodexed!
This version of Xposed requires deodexed firmware!
After installing XPOSED Framework, open XPOSED Installer and install Hack Connectivity Service
Install Terminal Emulator.
Sometimes after reboot, the Terminal Emulator shows blank screen. Wait for a minute or so and it should show the usual prompt where you can enter the commands.
Install SuperSU Free v2.79
I installed Ethernet Droid apk, but it did not work.
I installed Busybox but it was not necessary to be used
Usual Steps
Once everything is installed, following are the usual steps to connect to Ethernet.
Connect the Ethernet OTG to Smartphone.
Disable Wifi
Enable Wifi Hack in “Hack Connectivity Service”
Start Terminal Emulator and run following commands. This needs to be done every time we switch from Wifi to Ethernet.
Code:
su
netcfg eth0 dhcp
ip rule add from all lookup main pref 99
ndc resolver setnetdns eth0 "" 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
exit
If I don't use the above "ip rule" command, I can only ping to router using Superuser and Internet does not work.
Also previously it was not recognizing website names while pinging. the "ndc resolver" command resolved that issue.
Once above commands are executed, I can use LAN Internet on my Galaxy S4.
Update on Nov 19, 2019:
For the Usual Steps, the Terminal Emulator Commands after "su" line can be saved in a file in the local storage of the phone with name such as "lan.sh" then following commands can be used to execute the file.
su
cd sdcard
sh lan.sh
Video Demonstration
The demonstration of my final results is in my following video. It also has an example of Simultaneous Charging while using OTG Adapter.

I'm a game developer, and I just picked up the MOJO because I'd like to use it for development using ADB and the standard android tools. I bought a Male to Male USB cable to hook it up to my computer, but it doesn't seem like that works the same way that the micro USB works on Android phones and Ouya.
Has anyone gotten the Android working for development? If I had to guess, it sounds like you have to root it, then enable ADB over wifi? I found instructions to root it, but are there any instructions for getting ADB over WiFi (or the ethernet plug) running on it?
Thank you for your help!
I haven't debugged on my mojo yet, so I"m not 100%
Do you have developer options enabled?
I would look at Nvidia info, ie:
http://docs.nvidia.com/tegra/index.html#Getting_Started.html
The shield is simular.
https://developer.nvidia.com/getting-started-shield
You've got to ADB over the network. Find the assigned IP address of MOJO in the Settings>About MOJO>Status page.
Then go to your PC and type adb connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx into a command line to connect to MOJO - you can then ADB to your heart's content.
Hi,
I have just picked up a Note 3 on Three UK.
Am I right in assuming that the wireless chipset BCM4339 which is the same as on the Nexus 5 is still not able to use bcmon mode to allow us to enable monitor mode?
Would a specific ROM be necessary to allow a TP-Link WN722n (RT2800usb) to work on OTG cable?
I have tried both bcmon on my note 3 and also my TP-Link via USB OTG cable and neither have had any results.
Thanks
Toby
I've installed USB Host Check to confirm that USB host support is enabled on my note 3.
(android.hardware.usb.host.xml OK)
(handheld_core_hardware.xml OK)
I then installed USB Host Controller.
Both devices recognised but obviously not working. (Atheros USB 2.0 WLAN for TP-WN772n) and (ASIX Elec Corp AX88x72A) for USB ethernet.
When I run USB Host Controller I get the following error message:
"s3c usb host driver not found".
Another member on XDA posted a link to the Halaszk Kernel on the N9000 apparantly having OTG USB host support for S3C

I'm still hitting a brick wall on this one search wise.
Would stil love to be able to use my WN722N on my Note 3.
Has anyone any experience in modifying the Kernel Module to allow the ath9k to work on Note 3?
Getting a wireless adapter to work on Ubuntu or any form of Linux can be difficult if the manufacturer doesn't provide direct driver support or at the very least a "Tar" which would allow an end user (with sufficient skill) to compile the drivers them self. My understanding of this is limited but from what I can remember Android is JavaScript VM running on a Linux kernel. So you need the Linux source code for the driver which usually comes in a "Tar". Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
Dear Forum,
Wired Ethernet on a tablett HOWTO.
Tested on a P5110
Get ready to build CyanogenMod for Your Device
http : / wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_p5110
but before you build:
cd android/system/kernel/samsung/espresso10
make menuconfig
[Navigate using arrow keys and enter]
Load an Alternate Configuration File:
./arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_p5110_defconfig
then
Device Drivers ->
Network device support ->
USB Network Adapters ->
Multi-Purpose USB Networking Framework ->
[PRESS y so that the module will be built into the kernel]
[*] Multi-purpose USB Networking Framework
find the Chipset Your Adapter is using
[PRESS y]
[*] ASIX AX88xxx Based USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapters
or whatever Chipset your Adapter is using
exit and save
build the ROM
Flash it
open terminal
su
netcfg
Your eth0 should now show up to get an IP Address
netcfg eth0 dhcp
The grapevine says not all apps are supported as Android has a sketchy implementation apps written in c or c++ should work

What would ./arch/arm/configs/cyanogenmod_p5110_defconfig be on a p3110?
Easier will be to flash Agni kernel and install this app from store. Is using a little hack so every app works with the wired connection https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=xda.usbhost.test
I"ve been scratching my head for a while on this one. Here's what I did to get ethernet access with the help from above. Thanks iamashwin and blueseeker.
1) From TWRP v2.8.4.0 in boot recovery, flash the following:
- Recent version of OmniRom 4.4.4 nightly. I used the 2/12/15 nightly.
- Flash PA Gapps Micro for 4.4.4
- Flash SuperUser
- Flash AGNi kernel for 4.4.4
- Reboot
2) Load this android app.
2) Make sure wifi is turned off.
3) Plug in your USB-OTG adapter with USB-Ethernet adapter. I bought this USB-OTG adapter and this USB-Ethernet adapter.
4) Run ethernet app that you downloaded from 2) above. Hit "Enable".
You should be good to go from here.....
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1" P5200.
Hello I want to get a similar configuration setup on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3. Is there any way that modifications can be made to what's been used here to support it.
hi, I have a lg g2 d800 (att) with CM 10.2. I'm thinking of buying a otg micro usb cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KILQLKE/ref=gno_cart_title_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
does anyone know if it will work? i'll be connecting a garmin edge 500 to get files off of.
edit: I installed a app called usb host check. it says:
android.hardware.usb.host.xml
Not found
handheld_core_hardware.xml
USB host not enabled
tablet_core_hardware.xml
Not found
it says "usb host support is not enabled. a fix attempt can be performed."
EDIT2: just a update. it works. I got the cable I linked from amazon. and I didn't use usb host check to perform a fix.
Hey all,
Has anyone been able to successfully root from a MacBook Pro 2016 with USB Type C ports? Having problem getting adb to list my Shield. This is on:
2016 Macbook Pro w/ macOS Sierra 10.12.3
WAWPI USB 3.0 A Male to A Male Cable
Apple USB-C to USB Adapter
Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.36 (Revision 84e3321d5db3-android)
System Information -> USB shows Shield but adb devices does not. I was able to connect with adb connect <IP> but not USB. I've seen various threads pointing to a possible issue with Mac USB Type C/Thunderbolt 3 ports.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: adb command works with about mentioned cable and adapter. The real issue is fastboot. It constantly freezes/crashes macOS. I think my Mac was in a funky state preventing adb command from listing devices. Unfortunately, this still prevents me from performing a complete root from this macbook. I was able to complete root with another macbook with USB ports. So does anyone have a fix or workaround for fastboot other than running a VM or bootcamp?
EDIT2: In case anyone is following this thread... There's an open bug for this and a fix is in QA. New release coming.
Thanks for this post.. I was confused about what the issue was.
