Have ordered a longer cable for side port but just dont understand why this is a issue

My guess would be its a cable issue. I had this problem with my 2014 Samsung 10.1. Fixedd with 3rd new cable!

Just seems strange cable works fine on Samsung a6 but not on Samsung tab a 2019. But latter working with otg cable can only think the 2 tablets running on a different protocol. New longer otg cable coming tom
 
I had an android tablet that always gave me problems as well..

To get it to work I had to turn on the controller, connect the tablet and then shut off the tablet completely and restart.
Upon restart it seemed to connect for whatever reason...

Worth a shot..

I know that you have luck with Samsung tab. NOT me. I had to bite the bullet and swallow my pride and picked up a iPad mini 5. That was about a year ago. And so far so good. Keep us up to date on your issues. And good luck.

Think its really model specific when it comes to samsung my s9 works great my a6 works great and this 1 will work granted i would prefer it to working on bottom usb. Problem with them all is direct sunlight cant see anything i am looking at the bt moviero glasses but seeing reports they might be struggling with the ever hungry go 4 app
