[HTC Inspire 4G] davidalindsey:
I have searched and could no get a clear answer on this subject.

I have read that Inspire 4G can support USB host but the kernal has to implement it.

I looked at this thread, [USB Host] on the Desire HD showing prosmising results, as I know DHD and Inspire are very similar.

I just want USB host on my Inspire 4G to run DSLR Controller to use on my canon T3i.

I want to know if its possible to put an Inspire 4G into USB host mode today and if so how would I do so?

Thanks!!

I just found an updated thread, [DEV] USB HOST KERNELs - NEWS, I guess this is the thread to keep an eye on..
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
you created a thread that has no information but the topic of usb hosting, then u linked to a thread that has the information. fail.

(makes a thread about how to root phones and links to the how-to guide)
[HTC Inspire 4G] davidalindsey:
This thread has no information cause I am the one seeking the information on the subject.

The topic is "USB host on Inspire 4G?", as in I have a question regarding USB host on the Inspire 4G.

I simply ask a question on if USB host is already implemented or if there is current progress.
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
the first link you posted DOES show how to do it. you will of course lose the client mode as a result because dual mode is not supported. meaning you cant tether, and you cant transfer files or mount the sd card on a computer. but yes after reading the forum you can do it. make sure u do a nandroid backup and give it a shot. worst case you reinstall your rom.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davidalindsey:
Well I dont use tether mode that much and I do have a card reader to transfer files to a computer.

I will read all the post to see what need's to be done.

Thank you for your input.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
You would need to do one of two things. One build your own kernel with this implemented or two have one of the kernel makers add it. Your best bet maybe to do it yourself as few are willing to trade off a useful feature for one few will use.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davidalindsey:
Well option one is out has I have no ideal how to make kenels.

This should be cooked in with all roms, why has it not been a standard for newer roms? It's just like tethering mode, few people use that.

I am one of the ones who has very little need for tethering.

USB host everyone could benefit from. Plug in a keyboard, HDD, Thumb drive, Card reader, and of course use for remote shutter for dslr's.

What would be great is to have a manual switch between the USB modes, just like what you can do with tethering. There is an app for that on the market called USB HOST CONTROLLER. It's for HTC phones (G1, Nexus One, Desire, Incredible).

Alot of useful information found here:SztupY's Android pages. Not anyway for our phones but the concept is there.

I would pay someone to implement this to the phone.

Yes I am inviting a smart developer to make head way on this and I will glady donate.
[HTC Inspire 4G] davidalindsey:
double post deleted
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Your best bet is to ask the developer of the kernel you use to make a version with this built in. Most kernels don't use it due to far more people use the mass storage option on their phones then having to shut the phone down, remove any case they have, pull the SD card, grab an adapter or card reader and then make the changes.

I don't use teatherimg either but it is built in by default. I use mass storage far more.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dook13:
@davidalindsey:

XxXPachaXxX expressed that he would continue working on a ported drivers that would work with GB. something to the effect of traveling and being back next week. think thats a better bet than getting some one to bake a kernel for ya that works in froyo only.

As you would like a remote dslr trigger i would like an external DAC/amp for a portable hifi rig.. the many uses of usb host.. lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] GuestK007:
yay for digging up old pointless threads.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dook13:
It's nice to know the xda trolls dont miss anything.

Now hurry back under your bridge or you might miss charging a toll.

Ok as I can see where this is going. I am gonna close it up now.
[HTC Wildfire S] alexlarisa:
md5 missmatch on cwm recovery i find some solution but i dont think it will work on WFS any1 solved it??
[HTC Wildfire S] theq86:
have you renamed your backup? this will screw up your md5sum. for cwm there's no solution to rename a backup. you have to restore the former name.

if you want to have renameable backups, better stick with RZRecovery.
[HTC Wildfire S] alexlarisa:
nop i didnt rename it i just did a backup to see how it works and bam md5 missmatch
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShadowTigerPK:
Hi,

I love my Nook Tablet, and have rooted it using Indirect's method, and have added the SystemUI.apk published by revcompgeek.

However, I'm not quite where I want to be...I am really hoping for some tweaks or app(s) that will make my "n" button truly act like the home button in Button Savior, or the home button on my iphone - I want to double-click or long-click on it and get a list of running apps, with the option to switch to another one directly or to close one or more.

Does anyone know how I can do that?

Thanks,

ST

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] jon.01:
Look for Multitasking Lite on the market. You can get a running list of appear by single press, double press, or by search button.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ShadowTigerPK:
Multitaking Lite did the trick! I also tried TaskXP and that does the trick as well. My problem with them is I didn't realize I needed them to catch the home page button press. Now that I figured that out everything's working the way I want.

Thanks for everyone's help, this noob appreciates it!

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kcpaynev1:
Thanks for the info, just downloaded taskXP
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] FergyA:
Does anyone know of a multitasker that actually catches a home button hold rather than a double or single press? I want a single press to go home and dislike the delay that setting the multitasker to double press introduces.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] kcpaynev1:
You can disable the double tap function in TaskXP and have the multitasker popup on one click. I tried it on mine and it works.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] FergyA:
Yeah, that doesn't quite solve my problem unfortunately, thanks though. I've gotten used to the single click for home, hold for MRU from other devices and was hoping to find something that would make this the same. I guess that's probably unlikely though since that's default android behavior and the whole purpose of these apps is to change it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcvoss:
I am running Synergy with Device 003. This is my problem. Over half of my calls, if I don't answer the phone, do not go to voice mail, they just get disconnected. If I turn my phone OFF and call the phone I get the same result, sometimes it goes to voice mail sometimes it just disconnects.

I have contacted sprint and they reset my voice mail. Same problem, they claim it's a hardware issue which it can't be hardware or Rom issue if it happens when the phone is off. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intrlude:
Just had this happen to a customer just yesterday. Their HTC Shift would direct the call to voicemail when the call was declined, but when ignored/missed the call would go through intermittently. When it did not make it to voicemail, all we got was a disconnect/fast busy tone.

Updated PRL & Profile

Reset NAI values via ##SCRTN#

Had the account/device refreshed via Sprint customer care

Ordered new hardware

I tried to explain to the care rep that the phone could be turned off and the call should be directed to voicemail. "Phone designates when/where the call goes", I said, if the phone is off, what does the network do? "We recommend a new phone for the customer".
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcvoss:
I've done all of that also. So how can it be the hardware, it doesn't make sense if you can turn the phone off and it happens.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KommodoreHeinz:
The call forwarding settings on sprints side could be corrupt. Call them and ask them to check check ESM for call forwarding default, no answer and default. Sometimes this tool is overlooked by reps.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcvoss:
Thanks for the replies everyone. So 2 hours on the phone with tech support yesterday. They checked all the forwarding in fact took my voicemail out of the system and re added it. Same problem, most calls don't make it to voicemail and it takes several people multiple calls just to get my phone to ring. I will borrow someones sprint phone tomorrow and change it to my number and see if that helps. I still believe it must be a network issue.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] intrlude:
Changing hardware to thay other than Android would be beneficial. 1) would definitely prove hardware/network issue B) if the 2ndary phone's voicemail works, and it's a different OS(even basic) you change what server voicemail goes to. If it doesn't there's more to be had on your issue

Either way, switch back and test.

Sent with L*W*H
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KommodoreHeinz:
Make sure that you use a sprint phone that has visual voicemail. If you don't it will provision you on the other voicemail server and taint your results.

I honestly believe you need to to call sprint back and have them open a ctms ticket for your issue. This is something that they should have done during your first call.

[HTC Sensation] Laynee1:
Can any one of you guys tell me (remind me), how the stock, unrooted, warranty undisturbed bootloader looks ?

My friend bought his new Sensation today and this is what he is seeing on bootloader:

*** LOCKED ***

PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-1.18.0000

RADIO-10.14.903501_M

eMMC-boot

So, is this phone warranty good ?

I totaly forgot how does it looks, i sold my Sensation so i dont know ..

Thanks once again folx
[HTC Sensation] k0zmic:
I would think the stock bootloader has 'S-ON'
[HTC Sensation] griper:
Yep you need S-on
[HTC Sensation] tx3m:
That's how my girlfriend's Desire looked like before rooting. I guess the sensation should look similar to that :)
[HTC Sensation] bighair:
mine looks similar to yours except min is s- on, but it have been rooted ect!!
[Acer Iconia A500] scarabe17:
Thanks i'm downloading ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
Good job on the running apps.

Looks like your GPS is working even better than "the other Guy's".

;)
[Acer Iconia A500] ordio:
Thanks for letting me help test it out for you...

Very stable and i'm quite happy with the results that i've gotten so far.

Everyone's 3g/4g speeds will vary, and i'm happy to report good 4g speeds for those that have the Roger's 4G model... i'm not sure on the AT&T model though.

Once i tested GPS, it locked on VERY quickly (however i was on wifi so it may have been just that quick) :)

No issues at all with titanium backup and restoring old programs. Heck, i was able to restore my settings for HC with Titanium backup :)...

Of course, this is YMMV :)

I'll have to grab the addons for this as well :).. Glad gaming works great! :)

Ahh, Android/data folder.. i see where those are.. that will help. thank you.

I miss the circle battery.. i was wondering if there was anything i can do to try and help port them over? :)

Also i just tested my usb thumbdrive (verbatim 32gb), and it works fine.. was able to copy a movie that i ripped over :)

Again, thank you!
[Acer Iconia A500] brnakp:
Hi MD :-)

I am happilly running your Alexandra II, it is great ROM, so I plan to upgrade to Alexandra III. Just a question, are you going to provide us with circle battery theme?

Thanks a lot.. Petr
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Ordio, I am thankful you helped testing.

You and the others, whom I mentioned. I hope it works well, as I run it also ;)

This is the last rom. Unless somebody has a different Com_Gen they want stripped.

Again, thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Hopefully, I will get a battery mod soon. DO NOT use Alexandra II battery mod, as it is a different framework and systemUI.

Glad you like the previous II. I like it also. 4 months, and it always worked without any errors. It's kind of special to me.

Moscow
[Acer Iconia A500] metpolds:
@Moscow - I'm a 500 owner not 501 but I thank you for all the work you've done on your 2 Alexandra roms. As evinced by posters on your threads it has improved the lot of 501 owners who previously appeared to be the poor waifs standing out in the cold.

Personally I am using Icy Faux at the moment however when I get round to downloading Alexandra 3 I will mod the build.prop and have fun with it on my 500 ......... and NO I will not be whining if I cause problems (that's what recovery programs are for!).

Although you profess this may be your last Rom, I hope we will still be able to enjoy your honest and acerbic remarks on the threads.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks Metpolds. I, along with the other "modders". appreciate people like you.

And I speak for some of them, maybe not all. ;)

Hope it works well for you. Read my notes, as this "official" rom, is a bit odd. I remind you, as far as I know, it's the only official 3.2.1 rom for the 501. And yes, in true Acer fashion, they changed a couple of things with the install. But no problem, just read the notes I put.

No, I am not going to quit giving love to the 501.

When ICS hits (officially), I will be there to "rip and strip". It;s just that there won't be anymore updates to 3.2. Unless somebody finds some other COM GEN's they need stripped. And yes, if you find one, let me know.

Yes, Alex II will always be my baby.

Chow for now. Sleep time in Moscow.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks Bro! I get good gps in Moscow. (helps when the States put up 300 sat's)

Wonder why?
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
The reason we put up 300 sats over Moscow is to check out all the hot Moscowvite(spelling?) women!

;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Erik_T:
Thanks for this man. I got really sad when you said it was your last rom. I thought that meant NO Moscow love for ICS.. Which made me really said. And you're op is perfect.. Expect that my name is spelled with a K. It's alright though. You posted this before I got the chance to flash it and test it out myself. And yes I know the reason. The trolls that haunt XDA are massive sometimes. D:
[Acer Iconia A500] vothanhtam:
This ROM is really smooth compares to the previous one. Even though I had to start all my customizations again but it's worth it.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, we have to clean the house sometimes ;) I clean mine about 15 times each day!

Glad it's running great for you!!

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Absolutely!!! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Corrected. :o

And you're still under contract to check things out. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
Meant to ask, how goes it for the a510 rom you were trying out, get it to work or did you kill the wife's tab....

Don't believe you killed the wife's A501 or you'd be out with the dog right now and no pc.... :p

And have you looked at the A200 rom, the ring looks awesome, pity it can't use back camera, 3g or gps on our tabs....
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, for me, 3g has to be there, Also a forward facing camera for Skype.

Otherwise, I should just go get an a200 ;)

For starters, it's for quad core it seems. I suppose I could try using "somebody's" ICS kernel to jump start it. But really, until Acer releases some drivers for camera, and internal 3g, It would be a waste of time for anybody with a 501.

What it might benefit, is some folks who are working on ICS builds, to get the bugs out of their hardware accel. Or point them in the right direction to some other problem areas. Mostly it would be for 500 users though.

Of course if the kernel source isn't released, it's 50% useless. In my opinion anyhow.

When I get some time, I'll familiarize myself with some things. Right now, I've got some battery mods, and Wifi and 3g mods to take care of.

I need a full functioning tab by early Monday morn ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] ultramag69:
Blazingwolf has ported the a200 rom for the a500/501 here - http://www.tabletroms.com/forums/iconia-a500-rom-development/2943-back-2-basic-a200.html

As I said, works fine on our tabs but for 3g, GPS and back camera no good...

Thought you might be able to rip the ring out and incorporate it into a rom, if you were up for the challenge....

I would, but I have NO idea where to start....

Not a dev, no time to learn... :(
[Acer Iconia A500] Erik_T:
SWEET! :D Will happy to try out your stuff. Love getting the inside loop... lol. And that K is just the Scandanavian coming out in me. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Jut07:
@Moscow D, I just install your rom again, without doing the wipe, and it work !
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Am glad it works for you.

It's sort of 50-50. As many times as I flash these days, I am just used to it :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Jut07:
I agree, it's quite random, but it will be good to find why this happen (samething for the offset error).

PS : Thank you for the rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
I really hope you mean roms and not ...........
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Mate.... That's just... bad.... :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No Problem!

I suspect, when we start getting the Acer released roms n the future, there will be some more surprises in store for flashing.

So far, I have it narrowed down to either Flexrom, or System formatting. Eh,,,, by the time I figure it out, ICS will probably be released for the 501, and things will change again ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] xsatx:
I like this ROM and it is so smooth, and fast and stable,: D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks Bro! I always appreciate it. :D Have to thank Acer with this also, this version, is much more smoother than 3,2. In my opinion. A pity we can't get other Com_Gen's from them.

Can I ask which recovery you are using? CWM version? Or RA Revamped?

Trying to sort install routines with CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
MD, I'm so boring coz no problem found with ur Alex III ;-) I need something to update, long time no see the recovery screen :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
For me, that is good news!!!!

Will post an update maybe this weekend. Just a couple of things, nothing big.
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Well, that's a good news, tks, keep your great job. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] dr mcknight:
hey Moscow just wanted to ask... is it normal that the camera dosent work on your rom? it worked before, its not a huge deal as i almost never use it as i have a decent cam in my phone and a good camera.

just thought id ask neway
[Acer Iconia A500] shin lucifer:
Its working, when i had this ROM installed pretty much every thing was working 100%.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Uhmmmm.... cameras are working.Try lowering your OC speed, reboot. Did you load any strange apps by chance?
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
I can also confirm camera working. Both the front and the rear. I use Alexandra III from day one it was published, so You might have installed something strange. I even made like 30+ photos yesterday with Camera Zoom FX app. Any chance to have Google Music App? And one more thing, couple of days ago I realized that when I'm listening through my headphones, the music also goes through the built in speaker. I've noticed it before, and switching od Dolby Mobile helped, but now it's switched off and it came back. I tried Acer Media and PowerAmp. It happened on both. I know it's not Alexandra III issue, because it was also on Alexandra II and Harkon's ROM.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Yeah, the headphone issue has been around on Iconia since the day it was released. And everybody seems to agree it's a hardware issue. Sometimes different headphones help. Sometimes re-inserting the plug a few time. Re-boots. Different audio players. Etc....

Thank the stars Iconia doesn't have a powerful external speaker system! :D

Oh, you can get the Google Music app from the Market.
[Acer Iconia A500] naTpuoTXDA:
headphones

Headphones issue is on every iconia. You need first press play in your player, and then plug in headphones in tablet. When you plug it with screen off the issue will wrong.
[Acer Iconia A500] dr mcknight:
weird.... i usually have it overclocked around 1400. i tried lowering it and reboot. still not working and as far as i know i havent installed anything that i would think would screw things up.

the front cam works just not the back.

like i said its not a big deal as a never use it just wanted to let you know about it.. its prob something onb my tab it its just me.

oh well no biggie
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Yeah, that is quite strange that the front ones fine, but the back doesn't work. Do you get the display and such? Is it just the red button doesn't do anything?

If I knew all the files associated with the camera's, I would put together a flash for you. Probably a lib file goobered. Quite frankly, the rear camera is horrible anyhow, for a 5mp camera. My HTC Desire puts out quite better fotos.

And, based on the other day's "lack of sleep" ;), I think it's best we leave things alone for awhile! :D

Hope Acer puts a better camera in the next model.
[Acer Iconia A500] dr mcknight:
lmao no....no.... please sleep.

i get the camera app come up bet the preview is blacked out, i have control of the app ie. switching to front camera, and if i try and press the take pic with the font showing black it goes to a completly black screen. all i can see is the bottem bar.

thats why im not worried, its a bad camera. just a genneral question. i hate when things dont work right lol
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Sounds like the camera.apk or an associated file is goobered. I'll do a little research, and see if I can put together a flash file. It'll be a small file, and a simple flash. NO WIPES!!! :D Maybe by tomorrow. It's friday, and DARK RUM night!.... errrr... every night is rum night. ;)

Like you, I hate when things don't work right. I've seen reports of cameras going bad lately. Not a lot, but some. Usually, it takes the pic, but the output is just plain horrible.

Have you tried the other settings for the camera? Effects and such.
[Acer Iconia A500] dr mcknight:
yea all the other stuff works on front cam.

dont worry about timing....if you figure it out cool, if not i reaaly dont care that much. i will prob only ever use front incase i wanna video chat.

mmmmmm....dark rum.... might have to have a lil tonight at the rusko show:cool:
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I'm working on a flash zip for you.

Near as I can tell, about 10 .so files for the camera, but acer names this stuff crazy. So I'll play it safe, and just include them all from the base install.

Of course I'll test it on my tab first :eek: After a few more shots of rum :D

Myers dark rum is my favorite. A little difficult to get here (unless you know the right people). El Dorado 10 yr is also good. In a pinch, and that my shop is 15 meters from my flat, Bacardi Black works (tonight's menu).

I figure, if you're gonna kill your liver, do it with the good stuff :D
[Acer Iconia A500] dr mcknight:
yea im a sucker for Dominican dark for some reason.

i do like the old stuff to, just not bacardi.... cant stand that stuff
