You missed the best one, you can carry a USB memory stick (Or USB 3.0 Portable HDD) around and simply plug it in to your phone allowing you to increase your storage exponentially and play your entire movie or music collection on the go :)
This can also be used to backup /move video and ensure you have lots of space left on your phone.
Jim Britt ?
On an S8+ (not rooted), I can plug any USBC device and it just works and any USB/Micro-USB device via the adapters that came with it, no need to root anything.
But you have to use that clunky adapter; THAT'S THE POINT! My S5 didn't need this stupid adaptor which is a pain to keep up with! Samsung did us dirty by disabling the ability to have OTG without any extra hardware.
And you can get USB-C thumb drives (some laptops also accept them these days) which plug straight in, USB-C has the advantage of plugging in either way.
I thought I just explained that many thumb drives now come with USB-C which don't need adaptors...
You can even use this for printing to a USB printer. ( yes i know it's old fashion not having a wifi printer, but i only print once a month)
wow how did you manage to figure that out? lol
I was wondering that. Thanks for the tip. I find alot of stuff on my phone that I need to print out
How? What app did you use?. Been trying. Can't seem to do it
now thats a very helpful advise! thanks for sharing!
Oooo Why didnt I think of this lol!!!
dont worry apple fans. you still can control your mind using your ilie.
What kind of parties do you go too ?
Tony Blas HAHAHAHAHAHA
Dongle parties!!! they play with there dongles
Chris P that sounded dirty
*to
Comment of the decade
The way he looks at us while making these videos often makes me feel violated. Especially, while he stares at me saying dongle and licking his lips...
+XCALI3UR ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
XCALI3UR he'll na!!!! 😂😂😂😂
XCALI3UR " hell "
XCALI3UR i agree rofl
XCALI3UR
He likes the dongle!
I had no idea what that thing was... But now I know and now I can move all my stuff from my iPhone to my new gs8plus. Much appreciated!
have fun!
Great review and tips! Just bought an S8+ yesterday and was super curious about that. Thanks bro!
Great video of OTG hacks. Thanks man!
It might be better if you include an experiment of what will happen to the end of the "infinite charging".
And the camera might be too close?
Cool stuff. the first minute of this would have saved me a day of frustration. had I seen it two days ago.
Thanks again from an old guy.
I hate these videos that make this adapter out to be a great thing!
Up through the Galaxy S5 you didn't need a clunky adapter; you plug a micro-USB thumb drive in and it just worked!
Samsung took a GIANT step backward on the S6 - S8!
What stinks is that if you root your phone you can reactivate this feature; Samsung has betrayed us all
Old like wines?
I actually use it almost on weekly basis to transfer files from a USB...so nice of Samsung to give us this adapter !
Awesome! I'm totally doing the snowball + S8!
You've quite literally saved my bank account for this! Dropped my phone, my touch screen became unresponsive in the center and I couldn't enter my security pattern. Saw this video, plugged in my mouse to the dongle and voila!! Thank you sooooo much!!
You can also cure cancer with the dongle. Insert dongle into skin, download antivirus, insert cable into dongle and transfer the antivirus into the dongle
This is why I love Samsung.
Nєxσ 90% of the newer android devices can do this though, not just samsung, my lenovo tablet can do this aswell
Nєxσ True, I like that Samsung supplies us with OTG adapters though so I don't have to look for one in store
Noah R Yeah, I'll be trading my iPhone 6s for the S8+
Nєxσ me too soon
Nєxσ every Android phone does this dude
Duuuuuuuude, you totally helped with the tip on the usb mic. I was wondering why my camera couldn't pick it up. Open camera worked just fine. Thanks a lot. Liked and sub'ed.
glad to be of service.
please tell me if I can turn on s8 on camera sony a6300 as an external monitor over that OTG thank you
Liked and subbed. Great video :)
thanks a lot ! much appreciated.
Agreed, top notch
you can also save and transfer files using a flash drive just us the my files app and you should see your stuff
Gonzalo Bula pretty awesome to be able to do that.
Gonzalo Bula awesome
Gonzalo Bula yep probably the most useful part that he failed to mention
will I be able to download a file and transfer it into the flash drive
Jonathan Tait ya it pretty much does it like a computer would you can,download whatever and put it in there
I didn't know you can connect a controller. Thank you! And I love your humor, smooth and not forced. Haha.
I just got this phone and you have opened my eyes to unforeseen wonders!!
At 3:53 we can see your YouPorn app bro...
I must admit, I also use it...
LMAOOOO. That is yellow pages.
Yp gracias
using the controller for your games using the dongle blew my mind. GG.
I like how ur content is natural an not so perfect yet very informative makes it more enjoyable definitely gonna subscribe
thanks a lot.
Omg soooo many cool things I had no idea of. I honestly thought it was solely for old charge cables. Love the wireless keyboard option. Thanks
I actually screen shared my Xbox 1 with my samsung tv to my S8 Plus and was playing gears of war 4 on the Display of my phone
Ricky Martinez Samsung is just better.
How
Teach Me, I Never Actually Thought Of That You Sir Are A Genius Now I Can Shit An Play In The Bathroom Without A Tv
Then use VR with GearVr
Ricky Martinez how do you share the screen to your phone
and ppl still use iPhone 😂😂😂
braheim rush iMessage and FaceTime. That's what hold me back.
Well- and my backlog of apps
And it's been a while since I've owned an android- but the apps just weren't developed as well.
That being said- I've been drooling over android hardware for a couple of years. This phone might make me switch. But the. The 10th anniversary iPhone comes out this fall so I'll probably wait.
But then I'll want to wait for the next Samsung just in case.
But then I'll want to wait on the s version of the next iPhone because- why not-
And then 20 years later I'll still be rocking the 6s.
I had no intention of writing this much...
Chris Perry but they make the same FUCKING phone every year are you serious..no new features and the features they do make are fucking pointless 😂😂😂them bs ear buds ain't last ah month..like I said nothing new..same phone different number
braheim rush hey man - I get it. But some of what you said is wrong though. They do adopt behind other platforms- but I like a lot of what they do. And the EarPods are great. I wash them in my pocket it all the time- and they never die. They just get clean. They do stagnate for sure but also some of the new features are great for me even when they seam gimmicky i.e. Force touch. I use it all the time for sliding my keyboard around and switching apps. Like hundreds of times a week. Even the Touch ID sensor (fingerprint) I thought was a gimmick but turned out to be a good one. I understand the hate for Apple- I really do- But it really doesn't suck.
braheim rush also that's why I didn't get an iPhone 7. That one really is pretty much the same phone. At least it's water resistant though- good news is any phone I get from here on out will have that feature.
I know the galaxy has been for a while. I'm really not interested in discussing who did it first- I'm more concerned with who does it best.
all of them are the same phone is not Compatible with shit unless is apple
I appreciate the heads up on adding this inexpensive adapter to my IT tool kit. Keep up the good work.
Hi Jeremy, Great Vid! So here's a question: Can I use that Open Camera App to capture line in auxiliary sound via the headphone jack? I record live acoustic performance and it would be nice to run the sound straight from the mixer via 2 RCAs to a 1/4" headphone input? I'm using the phone mic right now and it's not great.
How many times did I say dongle? It is probably my favorite word. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Jeremy Judkins make sure you are beautiful. that was funny. thanks for the trics. gonna try now. liked the vid
Jacob Reed sounded like sierra leone mt eden
Jeremy Judkins
dude I don't say this a lot as I am in communications department in a leading advertising agency (we can sell anything) your dialog delivery and timing in near perfect for one thing. "TRUST"
Keep up the good work. The world will TRUST whatever you say pretty soon man.
Jeremy Judkins i cant find the air gesture on this Galaxy s8+ ... im trying to use youtube and use the air gesture to see what's ahead of the video without toching the screen... can u help me
you can also use a use splitter and connect multiple things
am I the only one who cringed when he kept holding his phone by the dongle micro USB is such a weak connector
Scott Strom true, but it still hurt
YES....!!! I was about to comment about that too..... It makes me so upset.... I can't believe people are so dumb... You can destroy the usb connector like that.... Not even my 10 year old son doesn't that.. It looks like he loves holding sticks...
I love your vids brotha! Your personality is so genuine
Liked and subbed, knew a few, but they way you present it is just entertaining :)
thank you! cya in my next video.
sweet video
Just subbed to your channel
stfu lol
***** lol He's a really nice TH-camr tho. You could tell he does it for the joy. A lot of these TH-camrs just takes one another's ideas. Jeremy keeps it creative. Just when you think everything's been done he does it

How can you forget using a USB as a source of external storage 🙆♂️
Eyad Almohaisi yeah this is great too. I can download my movies or whatever and save them to a thumb drive and just plug and play them on my phone instead of using storage on my s8! It's great
wow smart idea :O
Jeremy Judkins
Please reply, i've got a very badly damaged an cracked screen on my Samsung S8+, idk if this is the same design, but if i buy a dongle could i then use a wireless mouse and it would work on my screen?
woah holy crap I can't believe that I'm typing this with my keyboard via otg thanks mate for showing me this awesome video. liked and subscribed - Void
for the otg connector if I connect my PS4 remote do I have to do something in the settings or I can start playing any game the moment I connect it
rickofsteel that was the best trick about this functionality 😁
all this i done it since my n7100 note 2
with s7 edge i can manage my 1t hard drive files .. copy and move .. backup my files etc..
.. sadly you can't do this even with iphone 7+ or higher 😀
and they keep saying iphone is better than Android devices
blackice273 Well we have AirDrop and iCloud. U could also use Google Drive since u love Google so much
blackice273 We have similar utilities on Android dummy. However that is useless if you're out of reception. That's not the only thing the OTG port is good for either though. Android OEMs give us OPTIONS! Thats why people have ditched HTC, because there are other options when an OEM does something shit. We don't have to do it the way one company tells us to. BTW Why are you on this video if you love Apple so much?
the iPhone is always playing catchup; they STILL don't have wireless charging or microUSB support! My old S5 had 4K video & a better screen than the newest iPhone.
Jim Britt lol, the newest Android phones don't have MicroUSB either, they have something better though, USB-C... Also screen resolution isn't everything but Samsung do currently have the best display on a smartphone thanks to AMOLED, supposedly the next iPhone will have AMOLED too which will be interesting...
blackice273
I have to apologise for not subscribing to ur channel for long.... Thanks man.... I can see you from Nigeria
Great video, thank you.I have a question does it work with a wireless printer too? 🤔
Isn't it bad to hod your phone by the dongle bad it can ruin the port
i know its bad to hold the dongle but i don't mind
Jeremy Judkins I wouldn't recommend it but the USB-C port is pretty tough.
Rmend8 This makes me insane😠😠😠😠
Android = A friendly lifegiver
appl = leech...
Thank you so much for this. I love my S8+ even more! Great info n demonstration.
That my friend is the greatest use of product I've seen. Thanks! I'm use some of the suggestion that you showed when I get home.
Make sure you beautiful and in focus....mmmm, make sure your in focus 😂 your funny you sounded like you hurt your own feelings 🤣
Has anyone tried to plug in an external hard drive ?
I did, a Transcend StoreJet 25MC.. it has a usb-c connector which i tried to connect directly to phone but it asked me to format the drive and i got scared and removed the cable! Basically, it might work but since i don't have a spare memory to save my stuff from drive, i gave up!
i have and it totally worked
Some phones will work with an external drive with no format, some require a 3rd party app. Most work with a drive formatted in FAT or exFAT, NTFS usually requires another app to interact but it's not hard to find them free on Google.
I have a 1tb harddisk it works fine it will have to format first but works fine
Keyboard controllers for music apps work quite well. And this single works on just about every Android device I have tried it with. I was previously using the adapter from the S7. Sometimes with a Micro USB to USB C adapter.
Great video, is there a way you can hook up the OTG dongle then plug some kind of dual USB splitter into it. One side for data etc and one side for charging so your getting power while working your setup.
Save you 7 minutes:
1. Charge another device
2. Use an external microphone (OpenCamera app)
3. Use an external keyboard and mouse
4. Use a game controller
5. Control a camera (DSLR Controller app)
you forget the most important thing, it can charge itself!
disapointed I didn't see this earlier -_-
Can you hook up a usb interface?
umby24 can u connect usb drive to it?
Yea but hes funny
dem iphone fanboys be like : WHAT IS THAT SORCERY???? MUST REQUIRE EXPENSIVE $$$$ DONGLE
Me : been sharing data with my 1TB Seagate Portable Hard Disk for practically less than paying for 1 cup of starbucks with my HTC since Android with Micro USB days u mad bruh??? XD
Arya Jonathan Does the Charing port even output enough to power the 1tb portable hard drive?
tbh I admire both companies for pushing the envelope. Both Android and Apple has gone so far now that I admit iPhone 7 Plus is a great phone (while previously I feel Android is far superior for my needs).
However when it comes to features and what one wants in a phone both can differ greatly.
For me, personally I like a phone that one day can replace my laptop and tablet and Google (and Microsoft and Samsung) has been working hard to make that happen.
Even though Google's project Ara might be an expensive mishap, most of our tech has been designed to be modular such as the inclusion of dongles and cases and wireless capabilities (for bluetooth speakers) that Project Ara might not be even financially worthwile of developing. In fact, our tech has been more modular than ever.
Somehow though, Microsoft hasnt been including USB Type-C peripherals onto their Surface line-up though I enjoy using their products and thunderbolt 3 is very crucial for future-proofing devices.
Spicy Memelord same
There is a thing called the Apple Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter which lets you connect sd card readers, keyboards, microphones, cameras, USB hubs, Ethernet adapters, MIDi interfaces and much more to your iOS devices.
I've been using the Galaxy S7 for the last month and a half and while there are many things I like, I can't wait to get back on the iPhone. the overall experience is so much more consistent.
@Jeremy Judkins... would I be able to use my old micro usb to hdmi adapter from my Note 3 using the "Dongle"?
OMG thank you so much. I really just throught it was to just put your stuff from your old phone to your new phone. Now i want to go check out what i can use. Thanks so much
Did anyone counted how many times he said the word DUNGLE!🤔🙄🤓? 🤣🤣🤣
New drinking game.
Looks like 644 people don't have one of these OTG connectors.
Zachary Olechnowicz Dongles*
Looks like 644 are iPhone users 😃
I have one but this vid was lame
I love the fact that you're not doing retakes but rather you're being natural in your videos. Mistakes and all
woha.. i didn't know this dude.. great narration simple and humor...keep it up
the wireless charger trick is a loopback effect and it will cause the battery to heat and possible expand and rupture, absolutely stupid and unsafe thing to do
TJ Maktou I doubt that's gonna happen, especially with all of the safety mechanisms implemented by Samsung. They've prolly thought of this situation too.
it has already happened sammobile has the videos of people who did it and overheated the battery. And yes its stupid and absolutely insain, but here he is in this video doing it, teaching kids how to cause a fire
a lot of energy is lost in wireless charging pads as its just energy given off by a series of coils and the phone isn't going to do anything because at the rate of charge and energy dissipation the phone will be dead before we get another note 7
yeah i guess my degree in engineering means nothing, and the fact of something called a loopback effect also means nothing, its not about the coils, its about the discharge heat combined with the intake thermals oh yeah forgot you know all this LOL i feel sad for people like you. Loopbacks start fires even on very low MAH outputs
cool so you know that samsung actually implemented more failsafes in the galaxy s8 right? the batteries will actually stop charging if they get hot enough, overvolted, or if a cell is damaged at all. also the charging pads have passive dissipation because of the way they are manufactured so like I said. Your phone will be dead before you get another note 7. flaunt your degree around though because it seems to make you look smart.
You need to take lots of Multi vitamins.
I just bought the s8. all of these tips are amazing!
I honestly liked and subscribe because you're not yelling at me like most TH-camrs. You're very calm and collected and a little humor. And I love how you said like And subscribe if you can all of us TH-camrs say all the time but it helps. Basically I'm saying you didn't beg me you just kept it cordial. LOL
am I the only one who types way faster on my phone than PC keyboard?
The Legend34 I get like average 85wpm on keyboard
Kappa LOL!!! I tried to wipe the hair off my screen! 👍
The Legend34 and I blow my screen like an idiot lol
I type 430 keys per minute, there’s No way to get even remarkable close on a phone.
The Legend34 *Am, *than a
Great video man! I just subscribed :)
Awesome! #roadto100k
Ive used an otg cable mostly for gaming with an xbox 360 controller, but flash drives, a keyboard, a microphone, and a super high end usb dac for high end music on the go are also great ideas
I wonder if the last hack would work with an Olympus em5 mk1? 🤔
You can also hook up a desktop hdd to your phone. But the system currently tops out at 1.6tb. I used an externally powered enclosure though. 😑
Great video! Just one question.... can you hook your phone to your tv using the "dongel"
We've been using the DSLR Controller software for controlling our cameras when on a SteadiCam or crane(mini version of each). It's been an amazing software also useful as a Dir-monitor. We use it wireless with a wireless router but usb works great.
I've been using the S8+ to film in part a series I'm producing "SolitaryMan" and the dongle makes it possible to plug in a quality shotgun mic.
Excellent video and thanks.
Dude you are awesome! I'm subscribing 😎
The last one was very usefull one. I am a beginner TH-camr and was trying to find a way to have a monitor to my camera.
Thank you for sharing this hack
I just got an s8+ and I have to say this is the story video I've seen on the web. Thank you.
That dslr controller app for the phone is awesome also works on tablets. I've used it as a backup photo storage from dslr sd to phone, doing quick edits pre set edits to hand them out faster at party's etc,
This video came out at the perfect time. Super excited to use it
Works great! Screen mirrored to my tv and used the controller absolutely incredible! Plus you can use the mouse on the screen. Once you've used it you can't do without. If it ever. Breaks I'll have to get another!!!! Thanks
Found exact my question's answer.thank you sm
i like the final camera monitor trick , its usefull thanks
Jeremy, brother... I know you did this video a year ago. But it is still very informative. As I did not know what that piece was for and didn't think to care for it and lost it. But let me tell you; I Sooooo could of and still can use it as you've made a HUGE light to it's usage. I will buy me that piece ASAP. So that you SOOOO much for your time and sharing your findings with us. I applaud ya, Good stuff man👍. Keep up the good Vids. I am a fan and a subscriber. Appreciate ya brother✌.
i really enjoyed this vid so thanks
Do you know if you can hook up the old school disk drive to it? Or would be sweet to upload some old music from cds that way
Bro, this is really cool stuff. Thank you for posting
Dope vid thanks for info much needed
That is an amazing video, I never used the dongle before 😂
Great video by the way. I have galaxy s9+ what cheap video cam can I use for zoom meetings?
That was an awesome video! Thank you!
I subbed because you’re humble and kind and not pretentious
thank you :)
Hi dont hv the mini cable device in ur video i bought it used. Do u know were i can buy one??
Thanks
Big Bubba
Subscribed and liked...just got the S8+ and in was wondering what all they did...
great! yes, samsung doesn't really tell you all the capabilities it can do.
I'm glad I kept my dongle. Thanks for sharing the cool hacks... The wireless keyboard and mouse hack I'll definitely use.
Hey Jeremy I just found the dongle in my box lol..was wondering if some how you can use it to turn your phone into a webcam on your computer?!
Was wondering the same thing
such new tricks much wow, the only one i didn't do years ago was the one with the camera, cause I don't own one!
Great video bro
hey what app or anything you recommend to screen mirror into your computer because the "connect" app it comes with its terrible. im looking for anything that works smiliar to sidesync. im using the galaxy note 9
Loved the video very informative
Will a wireless headset with a dongle work??
please tell which theme you are using bez i want the same all black effect for my s8 plus
bro ! thanks so much .. deff got a new sub
So awesome! You got a sub
Amazing! Thanks so much.
This is cool... would that dongle work on previous galaxy models? Or just s8?
Awesome stuff man, enjoyed it!
The S8 is USB C so it wouldn't work. You would need an s7 dongle or just any generic micro usb dongle.
Will the DSLR ap will that also work if i use it as a means of connection for a night vision scope?
Whose man that's awesome....didnt know my s8 could do a ton of these stuffs... thanks
Got more than I was expecting a ton of information, a new channel I wanna watch bexuase I appreciate how you guide the viewers and have fun, And Now I have to dig through my "Tech" Box and find the sucker(could still be I'm old phone box lol) because ya Boii needs too connect a mouse too their phone .. for... Reasons... Thank you for the awesome
