[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] general1977:
You cannot fry anything as long as the voltage remains around 5V. The current drain (Amps) ist always limited by the device itself. You could hook up a power supply that is capable of 5V at 100A without danger to the devices. ;)

However I doubt that any USB hub would send power upstream as this could indeed fry a device that is not made to accept current upstream like a normal PC for example. Also I think that the tab would not accept upstream current while in USB host mode since this mode normaly requires downstream current from the tab to the devices. So I don't think pershoots kernel would help.

Regards

Achim

Edit:

I just found the thread about building your own cables. Click

"USB Host with power" is what you are looking for. Although I doubt that there is an aftermarket solution for this. You will have to solder the required cable yourself most probably.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Accessories] MRBR7:
can be done if you mod the dock...

Look at my post on the make your own cables thread...

Usb host and charge at same time...yeah baby!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
Can anyone help me? I'm stuck at att splash screen after trying to factory reset before I was gonna update my rom. My computer won't recognize my phone anymore. I'm trying to use heimdall for the first time and the driver it only sees it as gadget serial. Should I let it load that driver or use my girlfriends cappy to load cappy driver? If I screw up her phone she'll kill me. Any help would be appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Take a look at the "Connection Help" thread in my signature. That might get you where you need to be.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
I did read that all ready. When I did the factory reset I included the sd clear too. It was going on a half hour and still at the att splash screen so I pulled the battery. What if it wasn't done? What would happen to my phone? I put a spare battery in and am letting it sit at the splash screen and the phone is warm like its doing something. Should I just let it do that til the battery dies? Idk, I hope I can fix it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
You shouldn't need to let it sit until the battery dies. All that happens in a factory reset is that the OS clears a handful of folders, putting everything back to it stock state.

Can you get into download mode? In theory, you should just need to hold V+/V- and insert the USB cable (from a powered-off state). If you can do that, try plugging in again and see if Heimdall sees the phone. Once you've got it hooked up, you should be able to do some flashing.

Also, if you used an ODIN package prior to using Heimdall, it's a good idea to remove the Samsung USB drivers (in the Add/Remove programs list).

On a side note... what Heimdall package are you using? Heimdall by itself or as a one-click?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
I just downloaded the heimdall suite 1.3.1. I tried to install the driver but it only sees my phone as gadget serial. I can use my girlfriends captivate to install the right driver but what if it still doesn't see mine? I'm tryng to read how to use it but I'm still gonna need help probably.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
At this point, I'd suggest leaving your girlfriend's captivate out of the picture. Driver installation will most likely be something the computer responds to in the same fashion regardless.

Do you have a rom that you're wanting to flash with Heimdall? If not, it might be more worthwhile to grab a One-click that has a rom you want to flash.

I would suggest that you uninstall the Samsung USB drivers, reboot your computer, and let it sit. Then pull the battery on your phone and try to get into download mode. Once you're there, start up whatever Heimdall version you have/get, and then connect the phone. See if Heimdall sees it then.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
Yes, I was on Illuminance 2.1.1 & was trying to do a fresh start for illum3 so I have the zip downloaded. I can only get into download mode by plugging it into the computer. Maybe I could plug it into the wall & get in d/l mode. Would that work?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
I don't know if it will kick it to download mode from the wall, but if you want, you can just rearrange the steps a little and put it in download mode before you do the driver stuff, unplug the phone, and just leave it sitting in download mode while you reboot the computer.

If you were on Illuminance (a GB rom), you can use the Heimdall one-click in my signature. That will automate everything for you, and it doesn't have bootloaders (which removes another potential issue). Assuming it works, it also has CWM already baked in, so you can flash Illuminance without an additional step.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
I uninstalled the samsung android usb mobile software but there's still samsung usb driver for mobile phones that says it successfully uninstalled but is still there. I'm downloading your one click heimdall now, it might be a while because I'm connected to across the street and lose connection when a big truck blocks my signal. Will that affect the download?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
I don't think it should matter - as long as you're using pretty much any browser but IE, they all (I think) have a download manager that can handle interrupted downloads.

If you're worried, and on Firefox, grab DownThemAll.

Also, the other entry will probably disappear when you reboot. If not, try to uninstall it again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
It won't go away no matter how I do it. I'm pretty sure I got the main one because it made me restart.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
ok, finally got it downloaded and started but the samsung driver wasn't an option, only gadget serial. I let it load that and am restarting now. Will it still work??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
As long as Heimdall detected that you have a device connected, you should be in good shape.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
It said kernel upload failed, ended session. Now what?

Tried again & says it needs drivers again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Unplug the phone, pull the battery. Close Heimdall. Put your phone in download mode, open Heimdall, and plug into a different USB port, then try again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
Can I open heimdall first then plug in to get into download mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
It shouldn't matter - if one way doesn't work, just try the other way.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
Now I got firmware upgrade fail. Try using recovery mode. With the phone..!..computer pic
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
Don't worry - the phone--

/!\

--pc screen will operate the same as download mode.

If my one-click isn't working, you could also try AdamOutler's UCKH3 one-click. You'll have to flash a Gingerbread kernel with CWM with it as well, but it's another option to try.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
Thank you thank you thank you. You are the man. I owe you. Did I mention thank you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
That's great to hear. Happy flashing!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
one more thing, there's no cwm so should I use odin to flash boog kernel?

Nevermind, I found it lol
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
If you flashed with my Heimdall, you should have the boog kernel and CWM already baked in. Double-check that the three-button gets you there.

If it's not working you could use full Heimdall to flash it (no sense jumping ship at this point, as it would make more work for you).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZephCr:
It was there, I was just used to seeing it in the power menu. Thanks again.

[HTC EVO 3D] AdriVelazquez:
For people in a good 4G area, do you miss not having 4G when flashing a 3.5 rom? I mean, I use the 4G at work when I need to upload to the dropbox quickly, or if I need to load a video quickly...but I just don't know.

Do you miss it?

Thanks in Advance
[HTC EVO 3D] EniGmA1987:
I get 4g at work and home but have never used it except to run a speedtest. I just dont care about it as 4g drains the battery like crazy
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
I would miss any feature that doesn't work even if I barely use it, such as 4G. I'm sure other people have their reasons for not caring, BUT I would love to counter this question with another one:

What is so appealing about Sense 3.5 that you would even be willing to think about sacrificing a fully functional phone for? I'm not sure there is one added feature that I can't achieve with either an app or Sense 3.0 itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] AdriVelazquez:
I have an answer to that...just the addiction of flashing, trying something new. We all love it. It's why we're all here. But this isn't only for 3.5, but for cyanogenmod as well, which doesn't have working 4G.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
I don't know about you, but I'm definitely not here because of a flashing addiction. I'm here to get CyanogenMod and that's it.

But yes, I do miss 4G on CM7.
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
+1 agree 100%
[HTC EVO 3D] cajones42:
I would miss it if i ever had it...
[HTC EVO 3D] southern87:
You think you not miss it....until you need it. I tired cm7 but missed Wimax...the 3d I don't use but I use 4g more than I think LOL
[HTC EVO 3D] thebeast614:
Idk about a 3.5 rom but I switched from stock to MIUI and I really don't miss it...most of the time i'm using internet i'm on wifi and don't really use too much data anyway...for me its not a huge loss

Sent from my MIUI'd 3VO (Finally switched)
[HTC EVO 3D] thatguy11285:
I'm staying on a 3.0 just because of my 4G data but when I switch out carriers to a 3G only carrier I'm gonna flash miui and CM and 3.5 ^_^ gotta love boot manager :)
[HTC EVO 3D] bradxnght:
+1 i love sprint but their 4g coverage is horrible.
[HTC EVO 3D] dannyboyex:
I've only used 4g like twice. It drains the battery too fast for me to use it without my phone being plugged in.
[HTC EVO 3D] AdriVelazquez:
Thanks for all the feedback guys. I think I'll stick with with 3.0 than.
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
I'm intrigued about some of the answers you received. People saying they are only here for one ROM only, or a flashing addiction. I'm totally baffled by that thought process. I guess I just don't have the same opinions than most. To me a community that shares knowledge, open source, and continues to not only improve the platform, but actually the whole industry is what keeps me here. I have one word for you that will speak a thousand words in itself. That word is "TrevE". That pretty much explains what I was trying to say.
[HTC EVO 3D] aoaleman:
I've always loved the CM ROMS ever since my HeroC days. When I first got my Evo3D at launch, 4G was cool but not necessary. I've since been on MIUI and CM and do not miss 4G at all. My wifi connection here at home is a lot faster than Sprint's 4G anyway. And when I'm out and about, 3G is fast enough for me. :-)
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
I'm right there with you. While I don't use either of those ROMs, I have a lot of respect and appreciation for a ROM built from AOSP source, from the ground up. I don't use them because I really enjoy sense overlays, and they had to be released incomplete, and I can't accept that. I however have used cm, and what is there I really enjoyed.

[Vega General] thomskipsp:
Hye guys!

I have a little question. I have a dvb-t tv stick connected to my pc, but I would really love it to have it on my Vega. Does anyone know if that's possible? I currently run ViewComb build 6. I know that in Corvus 5, there were additional .ko files. There were also for a dvb stick, but I don't know how to handle them. Can anybody help me?

Thanks!
[Vega General] yani2000:
If you can get it to connect correctly wouldn't you also need an app to watch TV?

I tried to search on the market but couldn't find anything. :(

And it's DVB-T and not DBV-T!
[Vega General] BTaylor927:
Could be possible.

Someone got a TV Tuner working on their Nexus One, details here.

Whether it works in Honeycomb? No idea.
[Vega General] yani2000:
Good find BTaylor927!

So you need to recompile a kernel to support kernel modules?

I guess stock kernel doesn't support modules, here is a custom kernel or use Corvus5 ROM or any other ROM with custom kernel that supports modules.

And you need the modules (.ko files that are mentioned in the script).

Those kernel modules needed to be recompiled or you can use those on this site?

Then you just play that "dvr0.ts" file that the script generates with any video player that supports playing Transport Stream (MPEG-2 Video Stream) (eg. VPlayer).

I think this goes like this (basically it's like on that site).

thomskipsp report back how it went, because I don't have a DVB-T USB stick.

Ok, hello, happy users of Sony Tablet S1. This is my first Android and I am simply not sure what to expect. I like it most of time, but sometimes I would prefer my fingers to be little thinner. With mine browsing (especially selecting texts) is nervous.

But that's not the point.

I have bought USB-microUSB cable marked as HTC and connected the tablet to the PC. But... surprise ... first, my computer doesn't see the external SD-card (Windows XP SP3), only the tablet's internal memory. But this is not the worst. When I switch to "Debug Mode", the PC stops identify the tablet and I can't make screenshots (I have already followed the instruction in the topic), DeviceManager starts to mark Sony Tablet with this yellow disgusting exclamation mark. I turn "Debug Mode" off... and that's great, yellow mark disappears and I can copy files from PC to the internal memory of the tablet and vice versa. But without "Debug Mode" I can't make screenshots, right? If so I'm really sad.

What can I do? Can I do anything at all? Oh, you tech gurus, please help me!

Though I managed to copy a picture, so only certain file-types are allowed to be transferred onto the SD-card or there's a filesize limitation. I don't know I can't copy pdf-files through USB.
