Looking for a good OTG cable plus ability to read SD cards on your Galaxy Tab device?
You can spend $20-30 on authentic Samsung products or get a cheap OTG USB/SD Card adapter like I did, which does more for less.
This Galaxy Tab OTG USB/SD Card adapter is very flimsy but gets the work done. You can read SD cards/USB flash drivers, connect USB devices, and a whole lot more.
If you don’t have one, get one on Amazon for under $10.

Yay! exactly what i wanted, but didnt want to spend $30. just ordered one. We’ll see how it goes.
I recently bought this item. I used it one time and now my tablet isn’t reading it at all.
Not sure if it’s a defective device or something with my tablet. My guess is it is the reader.
Same happened to me. I have experience in repairing electronic devices and discovered when I disassembled it the was a couple of poor solder connections and one that did not even make a connection. You get what you pay for. Also I learned when connecting it to your device it needs to have what ever your reading already plugged into the reader before it is inserted to the tablet.
Have you tried the mini switch at the side? It switches between USB and Card reading mode. I nearly wanted to return it until I looked at it closely and found the switch. It’s so tiny (about 1-2mm in size).
Wow… that totally did the trick. Thanks. I suddenly feel stupid. Hahahaha.
el interruptor es una porquería se rompe de nada, nunca vi algo tan endeble
Got mine. Does not work as delivered. Opened the case and played around. On my unit pins 27 & 29 are un-soldered. Messing with my knife blade I can get my the reader to work. Do not know the pin outs so I have no idea what I am doing and can’t make it work even with just one touch. Just know that messing around makes it work. Never did get the USB side to work.
im have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7510! im can use a usb modem 3g with this OTG?

Great reader i use it all the time and its worth its money.
Does this product work with a Galaxy Note 10.1, has a power supply port and accept memory capacity over 32 gb instea of this from Samsung?
Does this connector also work with the 7″ Galaxy Tablet P1000?
I tried, but nothing appears on the screen – neither with the SD-card nor with an USB-stick.
No not on the original Tab 7.

I can get so far with one of these – copying the photos on my camera sd card – but don’t know how to paste them into the tablet (new Tab 2 7.0 running Jelly bean) as I can’t find a paste icon. Can anyone help, please?
SERIOUSLY max using a galaxy tab on a ipad (hurl) box
I just got a Galaxy 2 and the Galaxy Tab OTG connection to use. I have tried both USB and SD cards and can not get either one to work. Is there something I am doing wrong?
Hello I bought a knock off about a year ago. It was working fine until today. It no longer detects when plugged in. It used to open My Files and have a USB icon in the bottom right.
Now, nothing. I tried rebooting. Nothing.
Is there a setting for detection?
Help?
Thanks,
V
Yeah these are cheap, I broke mine too but I bought this one which is way higher quality and works well:
