There's always a lot of confusion around how to get your tablet to charge and also use USB accessories at the same time. This video dives into why it usually doesn't work and how to make it work for Samsung tablets.
More info: blog.workshopt...
I'm using Amazon Fire Tabs with a Geniatech OTA TV adapter which plugs into the Tab's USB+C. This drains the battery and I wish I could find a "working" usb-c splitter cable ending in two usb-c females, so I could use the OTA TV accessory and plug in a standard usb-c male charge cable to keep the Fire Tab charged. Why is this type of splitter so hard to find?
This would be great if the lava didn't cost $40
3:47 Hub with 4 usb ports + charging, works with windows tablet (Lenovo-Miix-3, Win8 & 10). On android phones did not work.
Only some Android phones/tablets work. The list of compatible devices can be found on the LAVA website.
cheers, not listened completely, not sure if you realise that your audio sounds a bit bright. You have a great presenting voice but the room is quite big and there's a lot of bleed over, did you use a microphone microphone?
Anyone know what resistance is needed for the Lenovo Tab M8 HD? 100k doesn't work.
I have a Galaxy S7. I wasn't able to get anything to work with power. Not even the Lava adapter, it just shows moisture warning, it seems like the phone just doesn't want to take power going in at the same time as having the OTG working. Experimented and tried to run power through a traditional OTG cable and it did the same thing, moisture warning. What an OTG cable does is short the sensor port, which I guess tells the phone to send power out to the device rather than getting power in.
It depends on your phone on whether or not it supports the functionality. LAVA lists a set of devices they support on micro-USB, but the list is short
Hi Tim, great video, but looking at the price for the Lava adapter im scratching my head @ $38 a pop... Production costs around 2-3 Dollars. So I have to ask if your team can find a better option. Especially since this adapter only offers 1 port for accessories, it´s not a good buy at all.... ;) Im considering pulling out my soldiering iron at this point ;).
Hi there, we now have our own circuit as part of our MK1.5 electronics that makes tablet installation plug and play workshoptwelve.com/accessories/
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect where? I follow the link and there is nothing there like this
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect Did you discontinue your own product? I don't see anything on this page that fits this description.
Isn’t there now other solutions for this ?
Yes our kits now come with a Usbc chip that allows charge and USB accessibility at the same time.
Very nice video clearing all doubts
Thanks 😊👍
I enjoy your videos very much, they are so informative. The problem i am face is how to do this with a rooted nook HD+, any ideas?
Not sure that the Nook has this capability. From what I've seen is that it's s Samsung specific feature.
Hola que tal, si me podría funcionar si conecto una cámara webcam a mi celular? Por que el costo es alto en su proyecto, y si si funciona si lo compraría tendré que sacrificarme para que valga la pena, espero que me respondan mi duda, gracias.
Need to charge my android phone while connected too usc c out to my (usb c video glasses ) need to charge the phone at the same time ,what to use ?
LAVA also has solutions for USB-C on their website
Unfortunately does not work with tab A 10.1 2019. Lava provide low amp
Yes, the 2019 uses a USB C connector as well
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect it does charge but won't handle data (Joycon exr). Every time you press the button Joycon will shut off. Lava amp output is very limited. Unfortunately i am totally disappointed with whole 370z setup, i feel like i wasted the money and time. Don't get me wrong it looks nice in the car and i do appreciate your effort, but I should'e know better before dive in to the modification. As a suggestion for you, There is a lot of area need to be clarified with clear instruction. Start from OTG+charging , auto mode power on (root) , JoyCon Exr wiring diagram for steering wheel controller and backup camera. Lucky i am IT and can work around roadblocks, but at the end of the day i am not a car guru.
Here is the link for my car with tablet

@@KavanMavati good feedback! We have started packing up our MK1 electronics now to help get around roadblocks and wiring complications. We'll continue to evolve everything we can to try and make things easier (both plastics and electronics). Feedback like this very helpful
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect did you guys figure out how to power on tablet on power?
@@KavanMavati we have it going in and out of sleep with power on/off if the car. To have the tablet come on when powered off when detecting charge needs a root. But we are working on easy access to the tablet in upcoming plastics for the 370z.
Would like to charge & run app (both mini usb) on moto g7 smart phone. Does this work on anything other then Samsung?
You would have to check their website on what devices it is compatible with.
Thanks man
Good info. I'll probably just make one it doesn't get much simpler. I game on Android with mouse and keyboard but can't charge. I get about 5 hours of playtime and my battery is about 50%. If it doesn't work no big deal but it works be nice.
any luck ?
Hey bro do you find any solution to charge while gaming?
What tablet you using
Try 82k resistor on id pin and gnd
And connect tablet last
Can an ipad Mini do carplay? Or perhaps can it be *made to do carplay and also be charged at the same time? Assuming I'm using my iphone as the source and the ipad mini is just be used to display the carplay interface driven by the phone.
I can't speak for iPads.. I've only seen it work with Android tablets or head units
usb-c is not working for this
We just added USB-C support to our MK1.5 electronics. LAVA computers also has a USB-C standalone unit.
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect Can you send me a link to the usb c unit pls?
@@prgarage to the LAVA units or our Workshop 12 electronics?
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect the lava unit pls. I have all parts but the new tablet is with usb-c . With the old Tablet works all fine and now i will the same on the new tab.
@@prgarage lavasimulcharge.com/product/lavasync-1u-2/ they have a smaller unit that does the exact same but it is a raw PCB board
In need of a USB C solution 🤔
LAVA also offers a USB-C solution 👍
My Samsung tab A 2016 just found out ID pin needs 82k resistor
And then use a usb hub but connect tablet last
Get rid of the prats that use switches ffs 😂🤣🤣
Do you have a suggestion for a usb c port rather than mini usb? I have a samsung galaxy a7 tab
It seems like a hot topic with USB-C, from my research, it seems like it's up to manufacturers to support usb-c host and charging at the same time :( with no list / info on devices that support thoes modes
I watched this video and thought the LAVA connector would be the solution for my charging problems. I checked their website for the price......$39.99 That is waaaay to much. That's ten times the amount I originally wanted to spend. I cannot imagine anyone buying this.
do you have any updates?
Unfortunately we do not.
This has been discussed for quite a while on XDA and the assumption most make there is you're better off making your own custom cable instead of buying into those solutions that may be quite expensive or not work.
It's possible.. typically only works with some devices.
Try 82k resistor on id pin to gnd -
Will this Lava SIMULCHARGE work with tablets other then Samsung, and or are there other makes around that do the same thing.
For micro USB it is typically only some Samsung and Lenovo tablets. LAVA has a full list of supported devices on their website 👍
4:49 I have this I'm sad it can't do both funtions simultaneously.....😢😓
there is so many otg cables that work just fine. i am using the j5 create right now as i send the message. i also use the okx usb type c hub pro that even allows me to rum hdmi to three different screens so again a lot of different choices if you just look around...
USB-C is a different story. This is specifically for allowing OTG with micro USB at the same time as charging the device. There are very few solutions out there that work in this manner. Not saying that there aren't other solutions. This is an option.
Thanks for the info about micro usb otg charge and this is why some people complain that micro usb otg charge cant use otg and charge at the same time on review in shopping app
I use shopee btw
Glad we could help :)
Would something like this work for an Android phone running Android Auto to get power from an external source, but still provide data to the car's USB input? I have a USB 2.0 Y cable, one for data, one for power, but the power end doesn't seem to do much, my android doesn't do any quick charge and sometimes has a negative charge.
These units only work with a select few tablets. I haven't seen any phones that support the functionality on their micro-USB port
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect dear sir
May use any such divice for simulcharge
Please reply
My phone honor 8x is hdd wD 2tb
Please please please please please help bro
Looking for a way to use a multi connect USB c to my android s21 phone for gaming (strictly no Bluetooth as Bluetooth = horrible lag on controllers)
But also output to TV. Phones only have 1 USB atm...
Is it possible to have connected
1 charger
2x controllers
1 cable to HD (tv/monitor)
Thanks workshop12 🙏
Does this work with Android phoned
Yes it will work with an Android phone
hi great video btw but I'd like to highlight a problem I had hoped you'd include in your video....now I dont know if you get the settings wrong on a tab a6 but all I've done is turn on the setting so it stays on while plugged in.......the problem I have is that when I turn off the ignition in my car the tablet then becomes the host and starts providing power to all my accessories like dab areal and my joycon.....I am also using the lava adaptor with of course the 12v stepdown........would you please be able to get back to me with a solution to stop the tablet from providing accessory power because the tablet also stays awake which is a massive problem.
Have you setup your power settings like in this article so that the tablet goes to sleep when there is no charge? blog.workshoptwelve.com/2017/06/30/configuring-your-galaxy-tab-4-power-settings/
When I tried the LAVA connector, as soon as there was no external power the USB devices did not power up and you could see them disconnect from the tablet
have you got an email so I can send you some pics of my set up, maybe you can point me in the right direction....also I'm using a PAC module with standard boss amp in the 350z and my audio is coming through really quiet.
@@chrismargas93 yup, send it to info@workshoptwelve.com
If you want an elegant and 100% working soulution:
Buy a smartphone which has wireless charging functionality and you'll have a free USB port for any USB accessory.
Works perfectly with my Samsung Galaxy S20+, it is charging wirelessly and at the same time I am watching a movie from attached USB stick!
Awesome video! So glad you break this down to make it simple. Works with Samsung Galaxy Tab 2? Fire HD 8?
I can't say for sure. Check out their website. They have a list of tested devices 👍
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect this divice work on all android please ans
Please ans
Sad. I was researching about this and found out that not all devices is capable of doing both.
I guess going wireless transfer is the best option to do both charging and data transfer. And again sadly. To connect wirelessly and charge, as we all do, you can only connect to one device at a time.
I just hope someone could make a wireless adapter that can take both keyboard and mouse as one device. Does anyone have an idea??
Use bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse.
Good Morning. Already managed to work the microphone of the headset via otg??
Thanks for your clarification. I was getting mad, hahaha
Omg, $40 dongle.
Thx so much for your content..
Glad you enjoy it!
Can you help me with a situation. I ride a Honda Goldwing 2018. This has one USB socket in the glovebox which can be used to connect my iPhone and use CarPlay on the dash screen. I also want to power my GoPro while riding. If I use a USB splitter the CarPlay stops working. Is there any device which can both charge a enable CarPlay while charging my GoPro with one USB which is available with the bike. Thanks.
Pretty sure you would need a little USB hub. Not a splitter
Bro...My device (Oppo A37) only support one thing at same time rather i can use otg or charge...does this work for me?
(My issue: I want to use full computer keyboard(5V/100mA) on my phone but my died to fast.I need to connect keyboard to phone for coding.Thanks)
There are only certain tablets that support this functionality. List of compatible devices can be found here lavaaccessory.com/samsung-tablet-adapters-support/compatibility-list/
iam stock with a pcbox tablet, just to try to develop a proyect, and i was wondering, i have some knowledge, but if u play with a coil and a resistor.. what could happend? io mean, you have 5 Tao in the middle so u can save money in a switch...
I don't think I understand your question?
Watch this before buying
thanks for the warning
Does this work for iPads if I was to get a USB C to lightning adapter?
No apple products do not have otg support
Hmmmm when i plug in power to the Lava, it stop the data transfer.. ie. lets say i use usb dongle for mouse, it works when i unplug power from the Lava, but as soon as power is introduced, the keyboard and mouse stop working... any advice?
Do you have a tablet that is compatible with the Lava functionality? There are only certain Samsung devices that are compatible
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect Oh my.. I see, i missed that detail.. So other than compatible device which is able to act as host but being charged at he same time, its just impossible? (ie. I am using Nokia 2.2)
@@felixchiang if it is a Micro-USB connection it likely won't work on your device. USB-C have more capability
@@WorkshoptwelveConnect Ah well noted!! thanks so much mate!! I will research on affordable usb c phone which can do this haha
Looks like you decided to just make up our own stuff. nice job. Won't work for me price wise since I would need 5 or 6 of them for my project and that pushes it out. Looks good.
We appreciate the feed back.
