first i tried it with an usb-2 otg adapter ... tried it with 5 different usb sticks, ntfs, fat, fat32, exfat ... none of them worked.. s5 said something like Usb memory empty or damaged .. with ef explorer i gained only read access ..
tried the same cable and same sticks with my s3 mini .. works directly read/write
but i need write access ... so i bougth an mini-usb-3 otg cable .. tried it with my s5 .. same as before. ..
has anyone an idea ? my device is from german celluar provider O2 ... but i dont believe that there are some modifications that prevents from using the otg functionality ..
any ideas ?

I HAVE A THREE MONTH OLD SAMMY'S GS4 ND I USUALLY KEEP IT UPDATED....
THE latest kernel is 3.4.5-1011208 TUE JUL 2.
LAST WEEK AGO IT WAS WORKING LIKE A CHARM BUT SINCE THEN I HAVE NOTICED AN UNUSUAL PROBLEM. THAT IS IT DOES'NT SHOW UP IN MY PC WHENEVER I TRY TO CONNECT IT THROUGH USB (MEDIA DEVICE OPT) ND IT ALSO DOES'NT SHOW UP ITS ICON IN THE

Do you have USB debugging enabled? You are also in the wrong thread if you have the I9500 this is a Sprint S4 thread.

Along with checking your USB debugging setting, you may want to consider uninstalling/reinstalling drivers.
and your specific device over here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2164 maybe someone else has had the same issue...

Not sure, but they certainly have the CAPS lock enabled... :crying:
I would do the same to make sure USB debugging is enabled. If non of this works I would unroot the phone and take it to sprint .

Anyone else having problems with their cards not been recognised?
Card is good in other devices
Try formatting it in computer but it might not work for long. Already "burned" 2 cards. Not using them anymore…

What's your device?
Formatted in the pc and also in another note 2 and its recognised fine in those
Its a N9005
Does your Note3 recognize other cards ?
Maybe the problem is with Note. Hardware problem.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Yeah sounds like a hardware problem with the Note 3
My N9005 also do not recognize SD card. Problem in my case is ... one of the connectors broken. So live with it or replace of mainboard needed. I decided that 32gb be enough for me.
Check out all connectors in SD holder

If your n9005 running 4.4.2 it's firmware issue , search xda for that but you must rooted your phone , or wait
till samsung come out with firmware update which is coming and it's fix the extsdcard issue.
Hey guys,
I would like to mirror my Samsung S4 with AppRadio Unchained to my Pioneer 2DIN unit in my car. The audio unit does have an HDMI input, several people do mirror the phone's screens with the help of a Dongle or HDTV adapter. I purchased the Samsung S4 HDTV adapter ET-H10FAUWEGWW and tested it, but my phone does not connect via MHL. The smartphone will be charged when plugged to the adapter, though.
I also attempted to mirror the phone to a Samsung HDTV, but the TV does not receive a signal, either.
I tried to mirror a Samsung S3 with my adapter on the Samsung HDTV and it worked flawlessly. I guess, the problem with mirroring my phone to a HDTV or my car audio unit is, that my S4 does not connect via MHL. Do you have any ideas why my phone does not connect?
Samsung S4 GT-I9505
Android 4.4.2
Stock-ROM
Rooted (Superuser rights)
Thank you very much in advance. I would be most grateful if you could help me!
Regards,
Nico
It's because you are rooted.

Thank you very much for your reply! I downloaded the Snapdragon 600 fix and unpacked the file hdcpoff_sd600_4.4.2.zip to /system/lib. I rebooted the phone but still I do not get any MHL connection. Did I do something wrong or are there any other chances to fix the issue? Thanks in advance guys!

Did you set the permissions to 644 (rw-r--r--)?
If it doesnt work then you can try flashing this zip true the custom recovery.

Thank you for your reply! I tried flashing the zip file from your post with team win recovery. The flashing was successful but still my phone does not send any signal to my HDTV or Pioneer HDMI unit, either. Why doesn't this work?

No idea. If you really want it to work, then you should start from scratch.
That means unrooting and with a fresh rom.

Can I install this ROM in order to make the screen mirroring work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672053&nocache=1
Does this affect my root / superuser rights on my smartphone?
Is it necessary to install the above mentioned fix, then?
Thank you very much in advance!
If you have the 7 inch S4 there is no mhl on this device. The 8 inch does have mhl.

I've got the S4 GT-I9505 - hence, it does have MHL since it's not the S4 Mini. So, what can I do? Shall I cut the Superuser rights, flash the ROM and root it again? Is the ROM mentioned above by Samy Deluxe suitable for my plans? Is there anything more that I need to consider?
These videos explain but Full Screen mirroring but my phone does not get a MHL connection. Thank you for your help!

Try it with a fully stock rom with no root. Then you will atleast know that is the problem. If it doesn't even work with a stock rom, then it's not rom/root related.

Having read several posts, I guess the Kernel is the problem. A lot of people say that a modified Kernel with KNOX counter x1 will prevent the smartphone from using the MHL connection.
I am using this kernel: samsung GT-I9505 jfltexx KOT49H.I9505XXUFNA5 4.4.2 2
Is there any chance to use a rooted kernel and to use the MHL connection?
Thank you guys in advance!
EDIT:
Is this the right way for a solution?
- Flash stock kernel - which Kernel must be used for a German Vodafone S4 4.4.2?
- Use triangle away
- Check again if MHL is working
EDIT 2:
My knox warranty void is 0x1. Does this mean I cannot use Screen Mirroring anymore?
Thank you guys in advance!
Hallo, this is my first post in such amazing forum. I have a Samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9500 with the below specification
android 4.3
kernel 3.4.5-1875800 [email protected] #1 mon Oct 14 17:56:57 KST 2013
build number : jss15j.i9500xxuemj5
USB port is not working when connecting to pc but it charging well . Which made it a special case.
All what I want to achieve is rooting my device then upgrade it or use a custom rom. Since usb port is not working, it gave me hard time.
what I have did :
1 trying to fix usb port I have used every method ( changing usb cable original one , *#0808# mpt , Samsung drivers , kies 3 , USB Debugging Mode is enabled.)
2 – trying to root without pc tried (TowelRoot keep getting “Phone Isn't Supported" changing code and older version not solving my problem . Besides TowelRoot, I used some chines
apps but not getting anywhere.
so please help me root my device
thanks in advance

It's 100% rom unrelated. It's your usb port that is malfuntioning. Try to clean it.
Your pc doesn't detect anything when you connect your phone in download mode?
