Phone Keyboard Adapter

[Bludude4]

Searching for the original thread would be like searching for a needle in a haystack, so I created this thread. I can put it in a text file and you can delete the thread once someone's responded or something, but what's the name of the adapter that you plug into the micro-USB port on your phone and it makes any physical keyboard work with Android?

It's called an OTG (on-the-go) cable.

I don't know what the world would do without you, JDCarpe.

I have a related question to this. What are the ends that you need called. To connect a poker 2 to android phone it is micro b male to mini b male correct or is it something else?

I guess that would work fine.  You could also get a USB micro male to USB female, and plug in your existing cable into it.

So where can I get an OTG cable? I have an Android phone and a QFR, if that effects the answer.

They're on Amazon for like four dollars + prime, that's where I got mine.

I got my adapter from monoprice, item# 11193. Been good so far on Android with PokerII.

I use one of these when I need to do something with a keyboard on my phone or tablet.
