Samsung attempt with v7.3.3

[c75thranger]

All;

1st attempt to run v7.3.3

Samsung Tab-2 10.1
using camera connect kit (samsung usb adapter)
Mini-VNA (standard)

When USB is connected to the mini-VNA I get a Samsung error report notification

"high power device needs external power"

 perhaps the camera adapter will not allow full power to the usb port or the tab-2 can't provide enough power to the MiniVNA.via usb
Red LED lights on VNA
I'll have to research and find out if the samsung usb port has enough current to power the VNA or perhaps figure a way to external power the VNA.

Anyone with any ideas here, that have had the same problems or similar?

I have the same problem with a Galaxy TAB 7.7 with ICS. Is not able to power miniVNA nor miniVNA Pro over USB. On the other side, a small Sony Xperia Mini ST15i is able to power miniVNA over USB without problems.
First thing to check is to connect miniVNA before starting the application. If you are asked to start BlueVNA when that USB device is connected, then USB Serial support is functional and miniVNA recognized and you can go further.
If not, then you must search for a powered USB hub.

Anyone with any ideas here, that have had the same problems or similar?
