SM-X200 Tab A8 Ant+ disconnects 20secs after initiating

Purchased Tab A8 (SM-X200) to use Ant+ for Zwift

Only after it arrived did I discover Samsung has dropped native support for Ant+ and so purchased an Ant+ USB dongle. I've installed AntRadioService, AntUSBService, AntPlugins and USB OTG.

The USB initiates, finds the Ant+ devices and works for approx 20secs before the Tab tells me it no longer has any Ant+ hardware and disconnects everything.

I've tried to run it without WiFi (Bluetooth only) and the same thing happens.

What's going on, Samsung?

As Samsung doesn't support Ant, you will need to contact the developers of the products that you're using for this capability. In the likely event that the developers blame it on Samsung (finger pointing), it is their responsibility to contact Samsung and work through the issue.
