Hi, I have an android 4.2 tablet. The usb port is not powered. Will this GPS Dongle work, or does it require a powered usb port?

I'm 90% certain that the dongle has no internal power source, so it requires a powered port.

This device works fine in Android, though you need an app to make it work. "You Are Here GPS" is one of the apps, though there are a few others. You'll also need the PL2303 app (it adds the driver needed for Android to recognize the device).

I used the GPS Dongle successfully on an HP Elitepad 900. I don't believe that the port was a powered.

Hi Caspia, from my experiance the ND-100s does not work with Android devices at all, never mind if the port is powered or not. It works fine with windows7 though!

It looks like it has a USB port, but it also looks you would also need an adapter along with the auvio usb to hdmi adapter for the tablet. Radio shaq could answer your questions better.

Most likely you will be able to BU-353-S4 with your Android device if the device has a USB connector. As packaged the BU-353-S4 has a mini CD which includes the drivers for Windows, Linux and Mac. I connected the BU-353-S4 to a Linux box and after downloading and installing gpsd the antenna worked fine. I never had to use driver CD.

I have used it to recharge/power my Droid Razr and Toshiba tablet (at different times). It has USB (out) and mini/micro USB slots (in) which should work with your Garmin. It also holds its power well. I haven't been backpacking for over a week and the unit is still showing 80% charged.

I looked up your tablet and it looks like it is worth a shoot. You can return if it does not work. I thought I read your tablet had a full size USB for dongle. You might need a hub to use to for dongle and keyboard at same time, hope this helps.

Satish, as long as your device has OTG (on the go) capabilities it will work. I have used it on three other devices (phones, tablets) and it works just like the original OTG dongles. Hope this helps you.

Samsung (and other suppliers) make an adapter (dongle) that will plug into the tablet directly or the connector on the side of the keyboard and provide a USB port. I have the one from Samsung and it works perfectly for connecting flash drives and other devices.

There is a GPS app available, I have not used it. It's a basic tablet, I mainly use for Facebook & online shopping.

I bought a usb to Samsung adapter for my Samsung GT-P3113 tablet running Android 4.2.2 and it was pretty good. The mirror on mine is useless but I was able to fish it into the wall to look at pipes.

As Michael said, GPS is always available outside - wifi or not. I have used map software by Sygic on roadtrips on a wifi only tablet. I assume there are other similar products but have not used any other. You have to have a wifi connection to install the software and maps of course. Then, after the map is stored on your tablet, GPS navigation works fine.

Yes, Tablet does have a dongle with a USB port. I did not purchase Dock, I presume it has too.

I don't believe Android tablets have actual usb ports, you would have to get an adapter for the 30 pin connecting it has. After that I'm not sure that there would be drivers you could download to make it work. Unfortunately I don't have an android tablet to test for sure though, just a phone with a micro usb port.

As long as your tablet has the same connector it should work with out a hitch. I have used with a hub it also work that way as well but the power drain is great with multiple items

I still have not connected a tablet. But the Monitor dell has 4 USB ports, I guess with the right software can communicate with it .......

This tablet does not have a USB connection, thus it would not support a USB device, or the drivers that are typically required to make it work. A wireless hotspot would work best, but if you are having Wi-Fi issues, it most likely would not change fix the problem. Perhaps a reformat (master reset) of the tablet would solve the issue.
