[KERNEL][ICS-CM9 or JVU] USB Host mode (OTG) driver for SGS i9000 [BUILD 5]

[CatalystWon]

Yes. Power cable is required to USB flash drive. But with some devices is possible work without power cable. Photo cameras for example.

Thanks.
Is a powered USB Hub required for connecting OTG cable to HP Laserjet printer?

It is depend from your printer, may be printer checking connection by power signal, but may be not.
First of all - where are you get android driver for your HP Laser Jet printer?

It is an older HP LaserJet 5100. I would assume it has power in the USB cable. USB Host Controller (v.0.44) recognizes the OTG cable but does not recognize any attached devices.

Has anyone been able to recognize any USB devices from i9000 via OTG cable without powered USB Hub? I am asking because my cable is new and I want to make sure it is not defective.

Thanks.

Could anyone help me out with this, I could really use OTG support on my i9000, it is currently running CM 10.2 ... the only source for the files is the github's repository, but I don't know what to do with it all

For what are you need OTG on i9000?

I'd like to connect a USB stick on it, and hopefully an external digitizer screen (I believe it is USB 1.0, but I'd like to try it out anyhow) ... I have a powered microUSB HUB already which should be in working condition (tested on other, newer Android devices)

USB stick is a real to work. You are need to install DomnesuKernel on your rom, download and install this apps LINK, then follow this video

Thanks, will try it later on and let you know the result

The kernel has been installed, everything seems ok (by the app status, like in the above video: OTG mode etc.), but the Galaxy doesn't see the external HDD (provided it with the external power, HDD spinning of course) ... what now? Try another compatible kernel (supposedly there are a few more available)?

DomnesuKernel is 100% compatible with OTG. I checked it by myself. External HDD often required +5V on USB connector even if HDD has external power, check it. What the file system HDD have?

 

[vborovic]

I've tried with two HDDs, one is FAT32 the other is NTFS ... both are working properly when connected to a PC

Are one of your's hdds is visible in USB tab of USBHostController app? Like on 3min 27sec of the video?

 

[vborovic]

Sadly, no, they aren't ... I've tried with the OTG cable, which gets properly detected ... I've also tried using Acasis's micro USB hub, it is detected as a regular cable

Reason is lack of +5V voltage on USB connector of HDD. Fix it. You need take Y usb cable like on the video to power supply and all be working without usb-hub.

 

[vborovic]

I have a HDD enclosure that has a twin usb cable, one is data/power, the other is only power ... this is also a type of Y connector

Okay. Connect only power connector to USB charger or to working computer, data/power to i9000
through USB-OTG cable and third connector plug to HDD. All will be work properly.

For what are you need this old kernel? Many more modern kernels support USB-OTG like MackayKernel, DomnesuKernel or Semaphore...
