So then it is weird that usb host diagnostics says it does not work on the LT30p? Or maybe there is a problem with the test procedure for the diagnostic app? I am looking for a phone with OTG (maybe cheaper than the T), and my two sources are XDA-dev and http://usbhost.chainfire.eu/, and...

You are probably right here. I'm still considering my options.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll wait for a JB for the S3 and see if OTG works. Actually what I want is OTG, to be able do download pictures off the camera, and the One S (even S3) would be a nice choice, overall. At the moment I'm using an Optimus One, and I'm quite happy with it, except for...

I've looked around for quite a bit, and I haven't found a definitive answer for my question: Does the S3 One S support USB OTG? If so, is it with or without external power? I'm thinking of getting one, but only if it has OTG. The chipset (S3) apparently supports it, but can it be used? All...

As far as I know it does not support usb host or OTG out of the box. Also I don't know if the sources are there for usb host or otg, in order to be compiled in the kernel. I think that they are, because nobody bothers to remove the sources, they just don't compile them into the kernel. Also, as...

for my phone it did not work. The cable I use is the CA157 filed to fit in the connector om the phone. The problem is that the the O1 does not provide USB power, so you need to hack that in some way (use some external power supply), which I did. Also, I have tried several kernels (stock, mik...

This was reported to be working by the original poser of this thread, who also did the first steps of development. I only gathered some info (posted here on this thread). In my case it did not work (don't know why... maybe OS version) The thing is that the driver for USB host generally IS in...

rooted, tweaked, some stock apps removed, installed franco kernel, but I am still using the stock rom because I do't want to lose the apps I have installed and all the data, as I have mentioned. I guess a good backup program (for data, apps, sms) would also do the same thing, in the end, but I...

I was wondering if you can deodex a stock froyo rom, or at least how to get a deodexed rom on the phone without losing all the data on it. I have been using the phone for about half a year and I don't want to lose all the info on it (SMS, emails - lotus, apps, settings etc.) Thanks in advance

I got it to work by extracting the zips and then making new ones on a computer (using winrar to archive the the files as zip). Maybe something was wrong with the archives... Anyway, it worked, and now i am using the new kernel. And it works great. Thanks! Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App

bad archive? Hi, I have downloaded the v18.1 and been trying to flash (after the wipes), but I'm getting the following message: E:Can't open /sdcard/fraK181.zip (bad) I have tried to rename the file so it is shorter, etc. The zip does not open on the phone either (using astro), like it is a...

still no luck for me... I get <6>[ 4.043033] msm_otg_suspend: usb in low power mode whatever I do. (I don't know if this means that USB is changing mode) I attached 3 dmesg output files: first pluged in the micro usb port, pressed power after the battery chaging image appered. same as...

You will have to use a Y usb cable. There are some pictures of my cables, and a general schematic. What he meant by "the microUSB-A cable and power source connected" was actually "provide USB power to the bus from an external source, because the phone does not provide power to the USB bus"...

1) ~150mV (voltage only goes from the usb port to the phone not vice versa; maybe there is some way to activate the power flow from the phone to the usb port to enable sensing on pin 4 of the micro usb port and to power external devices? I've seen it somewhere) 2) -120 mV dc, 40mV ac on D-...

Finally got a usb otg cable... bought another CA-157 (with micro USB A plug) and managed to grind the corners that were in the way. Also hacked a Y cable with two usb A male and one usb A female connectors (one of the male plugs is there only for the power - attached picture) The bad thing is...

GPRS test Could you (re)do the tests on the first page also with 2G? I use mainly 2G, and when I want more speed I switch to 3G. Almost never WiFi (except for mobile hotspot, but that's a totally different thing). My intuition says the GPRS only uses much less power when idling than 3g...

Hello, Can anyone help me with a description of the USB OTG functionality on the ZTE Blade ? I am interested in: What drivers are installed (USB Host, USB Gadget, USB Storage, etc.) that are related to USB OTG functionality. How the phone recognizes if it should be in USB Host or USB Gadget...

Did see it, but it is a different chipset, but on the site with the Nexus One there is also a mod for ZTE Blade that has the same chipset. Posted in the first page of this thread. Also, the ZTE has USB support in an official update, from what I read, and posted a link to the kernel source.

It is not fully working yet (at least not in a very friendly way). Anyway, I'm still trying to hack a cable with the sense pin grounded, in order to do some testing at least... Steps to be taken: WARNING! Rooting the phone and installing a new kernel and some other stuff presented here voids...

With my cable did not work, so I managed to completely destroy the micro part of my cable trying to find a way to short pins 4 and 5. As I understand it, you have your cable with pins 4 and 5 shorted (sense - gnd). I am still trying to find a proper adapter, but all I can find is the CA157...

Will try it again (I assume it is in the older post). Also, maybe a "software switch" (either app or simply a touch or something) could be made to switch from host to gadget mode like here? (Better after we get it working, though...)

Tried the latest kernel, but still does not work... I will try to hack the cable a bit more, see if I can get any change in behavior. I hope someone else reads this thread and and comes with some more input... My only input so far is testing... (I do lack some knowledge about kernel...

Kernel build and pack (as zip or img) howto Hi, Can anyone point me to a howto for building a kernel (OS required, tools, etc.) and maybe add it to the stickies?

@haoto Done it, no luck (no output in dmesg whatsoever)... maybe some insmod should be in order? My cable is a hacked one, with the sense pin "floating" I used a external usb hub, and a Y cable (with a second usb for PC-style plug) to provide the power to the hub. Could you please post a...

if you kill apps, they will probably get restarted automatically and left in the background. If the apps are working correctly, this is not a problem, as a well coded app does not use CPU/battery when in the background. Actually, I just quit using a task manager to kill tasks (I just let...

As far as I can remember from school, a logic gate uses more power when switching, thus a higher frequency would also mean higher power drain (higher frequency = more switching of the logic gates), without voltage modification. Voltage is changed in order to keep stability - higher voltage...

tv out/vga out these adapters might be standard usb adapters (like here). The chipset specification (msm7227) says it has limited USB OTG (usb host) capabilities, but it has been shown to work on other phones (at least with keyboards/usb sticks), such as ZTE Blade. There might be problems...

usb otg Not working out of the box. My setup: "manufactured" otg cable usb hub usb cable from an external hdd (with two big USB connectors) Connected the manufactured otg cable to phone, the Y usb hdd cable connected to the computer for power and to the manufactured usb otg cable and also...

It could "just" work, haven't bought a proper usb otg cable yet, mine is hacked and might not be the right one,because the micro part of it is from a normal micro usb cable, and i think that the fifth pin on the micro usb must be wired through some kind of resistor to gnd or vcc of a certain...

USB host mode Could this be done to our phones? The hardware specs are very similar, and it would be very nice to have this on our phones. I also posted here, didn't know which thread would be more appropriate.

USB host mode I built a usb adapter just like here (but not the mini dongle, yet) but I see no output in dmesg. I have tried it with my camera which should not be USB powered (olympus dslr - that would be the primary use, if we could get it working) and with a wireless mouse (it's dongle is...

reminds me of porting android to the kaiser, but with far more problems... if there were a wp7 device with similar specs it could be made possible. but, as the previous post says, what's the point? android for kaiser was a good-ish idea, as wm6 is... well... wm6.

Banged up battery I have a totally banged up battery. If I find a correct capacity (let's say it has reached 50% of the nominal), will the kernel module "correct" it? Usually I leave the phone to charge over night, and i think it gets a little messed up somehow, because I cannot have the...

Are you using haret or have you installed nand? If you are using haret, make sure that the data connection is active when you boot into android. Worked for me when I used hare. My problem was that I could not make calls (it would hang while hanging up...) and the data connection did not work...

I also had radio problems at some point when I was using haret. The data would not work (did not connect) and calling would hang (call would not connect, hanging up would... hang literally). It did work sometimes, and i noticed that you need the data connection to be active in winmo when you...

I switched to flash... and on my first attempt I tried kernel 2.6.25, had the same problem with the black screen. Switched to kernel 2.6.32 and it worked. I used froyo, panel 1, overclock>500, nordic keyboard, advanced battery 1350. The rest of my setup is in my sig, updated.

any test release for the SD install? For now I am using the test 2 with a froyo 2.2 (the one in your sig) As an observation, I have been having locks (some kind of "sleep of death"). I a using froyo 2.2, OS monitor and battery dog (to get nice battery graphs), with test 2 of this battery fix...

if your android hangs while making calls and does not disconnect, and if your data does not conect, and if you are using haret, try first establishing a data connection in winmo before booting, and then boot android while the data connection is active. I had the same problem, and this is how I...

I am trying to use this kernel with cyanogen build, but it does not boot. When I start haret it hangs. It moves the staus bar to the bottom of the screen and then freezes. (I can only reset via stylus os sim card cover) The files I have in andboot are: zImage-2.6.32-froyo-06-09-10_22 - the...

I also get VERY bad battery times. I have noticed that when data is active (wifi or even worse with 3G) the voltage drops abruptly, which is to be expected of LiIon batteries (voltage drops quite badly with increased current draw). I think that the reading drops do a vey low value when the...

The solution to start the ppp when ppp.no_start=1 was the modem app in other builds (I am now trying CyanogenMod 6, and it is there). as for the auto disconnect, i was referring to the winmo registry hack (open a page in IE and then quickly boot in android, gefore winmo disconnects the data)...

Data/Phone issue I think I have found the source of the DATA/Phone problem. Try booting from winmo with the data connection active (in winmo). Open a IE page or something and then boot in android before the data connection is disconnected (if you have auto disconnect in winmo).

In my case it worked when I booted unplugged. Anyway, I think I should try at some point to have the startup file with ppp.nostart=1 and see if I could start pppd via console. (if it even uses pppd...) Also, in Spare Parts > Battery Info I have a "Time since last boot" of about... 356000...

As I said before, I used the modem app in myn's warm donut (and other builds). The best fix I could find up to now is DCSwitch (a widget that turns off the data connection in another way than changing APN, APN type or something like this. I it may be using ifconfig or something else, but...

I've had the best success setting "ppp.nostart=1" and then starting it from the modem app. (in myn's warm donut). If doing this it would restart the modem (a few seconds of "no service") and then it would re-register, and it would work properly (radio 1.65.xxx). But anyway I had very big...

what is the correct partition order on the SD card for a SD install? I have: sdX1 - ext2 aprox 512MB sdX2 - ext2 aprox 512MB sdX3 - swap aprox 64MB sdX4 - fat32 and I cannot install (whatever the build). having all the problems I stated before, I decided to repartiton the SD (before I had...

nope... did not solve the data/call problem. it only appered a little later... did anyone have this issue?

issues with radio I'm having issues with the data connection and making calls. When APN is not configured, the phonecalls work. But when an APN is configured it does not connect to 3G/GPRS and i cannot make calls. When i dial a number it says "dialing" but does not connect the call. When I...

screen problem hi, I have installed the latest version of Eclair (ext2 partitions on SD, winmo in nand) and the display fix, i have installed the eMo radio (1.71.09.01) but still i am having problems with the screen when i return from sleep/standby my display shows only vertical lines, no...

short answer: you have to select Sys on SDCard partition and Data on SDCard partition. long answer: the options that say smth about ext2 use partition images on a ext2 partition, just like the FAT install. if you want to use that you would probably have to have only one ext2 partition larger...
