Has anyone worked out how to charge a samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 and read off a usb at the same time .
 
That depends on the version o9f Android it's using. Later versions (with MTP/PTP connections) do both at the same time.
 
Some of what you are asking has been done, it requires a hardware mod to cable I believe,.... Check XDA site for details.... Also connecting to a powered USB hub with a OTG cable/adapter might accomplish the feat...

This is only reference to doing this that I have still involves hardware hacks...

Concept interests me too, but so far have not had the need to experiment....

There is some USB "splitter cables" out there in the world but not sure if plug/wiring configurations separate charging circuit from data circuits...
