[Q] How to enable OTG Feature on Galaxy S4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Galaxy S4 GT I9500 and OTG Cable
- Jelly Bean 4.3 Firmware
- Rooted Device by ChainFire
- Adam Kernel v3.5
- Cofface Recovery
But everytime i plug OTG Cable into my S4, my phone doesn't show anything and i can't access the device that i plug into OTG Cable
The notification "USB Connector Connected" should show up everytime you plug an otg cable. But in my phone, it doesn't show up
Can anyone help this trouble?
Thanks before

What I am guessing is that it maybe because of the Adam Kernal since it might not support OTG. The stock firmware and kernal on the S4 works seamlessly without any additional settings. Its a Plug & Play feature on the device

I'm experiencing the exact same problem. And I can't find any fixes

[Q] SM N 9005 Will not connect to Odin.

Hello everyone.
Just received my Note 3 out of box and getting ready to root and try some of the great work available in this section of the forum.
However the fun already stop before it began.
The phone will not connect to Odin.
It connects to the computer/kies just fine.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have :
Different comp/usb ports
Updated motherboard usb firmware/drivers
Different cables.
Different downloads for 4,3 and 4,4:
SM-N9005 (International Qualcomm): CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
(only works on 4.4 bootloaders, if you're still on 4.3 use the old version which you can find here: http://d-h.st/J32)
Turned on usb debugging.
Run as Admin ^^
Anyone else encountered these complications?
I would very much like a solution or suggestions to what I can try, even if you did not test it yourselves.
Thanks ! <3

Have you uninstall kies and install samsung usb driver?
Maybe a dumb question, but did you put the phone in downloadmode before connecting to your pc?
Edit: make sure Kies is not running. Disable it also in the system tray on your pc.
And if that doesn't help, you can try another version of Odin, like Odin 3 v1.85 (?)

[Q] Root with broken charger (USB-port)

Hi guys!
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy s4 GT-I9505. I want to root it but my charger port is broken, i've also tried with towelroot but found out that kernel version is too new. IS their any way to root via sd-card ? Or any way to root at all... Will I be able to install different os's without the usb port?
Im on 4.4.2 KitKat.
No not possible at this moment.

USB 3.0 option gone, no longer in the list

I was on Kitkat 4.4.2 and one day without any updates the USB 3.0 option totally disapeared(not even grayed out), and I tried a few things to get it back like toggling USB debugging mode, totally stock factory reset(removing root), and even doing an OTA from my carrier to Lolipop 5.0 Still no option for USB 3.0 , nor when I connect to a blue port on my PC do I see a USB 3 icon on my phone status bar like some report. Yes I am using a USB 3 cable, but before when I had the option I could use a non-3.0 cable and the option would still be there just grayed out. This faster data rate is very important to me and it's why I'm still on a Note 3, please help!!!
yeah i have the same Problem. can anybody help me????? thx in advance its really annoying for me.

S7 EDGE /stucked on beta/non working USB - how to update to offial nougat?

Hi everyone, I have small problem with my Samsung S7 edge. I have regitered to samsung beta and updated my phone to Nougat (g935fxxu1zpln). Unfortunately at this time my USB port stopped working, so I can't use odin.
And my qustion is: how to update phone to last official version without USB port? I tryed to find flashable OTA packgate for flash via stock recovery, but nothing work's.
Or next thing is who can repair USB port for less than 5000 CZK, because LCD must be dissasembled for this repair. (but this is not question for this forum, because I'm from Czech Republic)
Thanks for any tips!
Sorry for my bad english..
Seriously... not many answers
Are you sure it's not your pc that has the issue have you installed the Samsung usb drivers?
Yes. I tried it with many cables and many computers in every mode.. Odin, MTP, etc... FastCharge didn't work too with original charger. OTG is same case..
Why not sending in for warranty?

strange issue

So my Canadian s6e+ won't charge via USB port so I have been using wireless. Last night I flashed a custom ROM to the device. Now it works fine. I connected it to the PC and used the Samsung app(can't recall name, smart switch? Its not kies) and flash stock 7.0 and it stops working.... So now I'm staying on cfw.. Anyone else had issues with stock Samsung bugs?
