Neo V

on stock rom with root and locked bootloader i cant press the "Setup" is it normal?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shardul_seth:
If modules are live, setup button is disabled. You may have pressed setup earlier..

other wise it is not normal.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] emhis:
ok i thought that the disabled setup button was the reason of not working mass storage. i found out that the my usb devices requires more power, so im going to buy powered usb hub

no file in usb drive

I successfully installed the UST OTG helper and set it up. I can mount my flash disk but when I look in the sdcard/usb_drive1 it says the folder is empty or have been banned. not retrieved the information.

I am using LT18i .62 build rooted stock firmware. What should i do?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] shardul_seth:
Did you push "SETUP" first?

Also, some drives need more power, so not supported.. Check with another flash drive.

Card reader....

Sent from Xperia Neo using AOKP....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
I haven't tried this one yet (I lost my OTG cable) but, my Xperia Pro doesn't like several USB devices (card readers, devices that aren't flash drives only like MP3 players or even phones or pretty much anything that can be used as a flash drive) BUT, it does read them nicely after I connect said device to an USB hub, with or without powered hub in most cases.

Then again, I don't know how much power does my phone give or how much do these devices take so yeah.

Hi

Firstly thanks for your sharing.

With your modules OTG works, I can mount a pendrive and use a mouse (just tested this).

But connecing a (common and cheap) card reader, logs say it's an unsupported device (returns me a device ID, if is useful to know).

How to remedy to this (apart from buying another card reader and try-and-hope)?

Is this a "problem" concerning the kernel modules or the kernel (core) itself? In the first case, how to gain support to this device?

I'm on SK17i, rooted, stock rom, locked BL.

Thanks, bye.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Anoopnk:

i downgraded to 2.3.7 for OTG !! but not working...

here's some debug !!!

and can u give me your modules at system/lib/modules/ !!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
I finally received my OTG adapter and...it won't mount several devices I tried including several SD card readers and a external hard drive (my phone didn't like SD card readers anyway...)

However...something interesting happened...I had the ARC USB STORAGE MANAGER frozen, after unfreezing it and running it once, everything worked, the HDD and even 1 card reader! Even the "connect a HUB before connecting other things" trick worked like it did in GB.

Here are the debug zips with and without the ARC USB STORAGE MANAGER

At least I got a card reader to work without a hub! :D (actually, it's the first USB 2.0 I got to work like this, I had a USB 1.1 reader that worked too).

I'm using a rooted Xperia Pro with the latest ICS, stock kernel and locked BL.

Oh, also, it seems the app doesn't like more than 1 device mounted, it shows an error when I connect 2 card readers (or anything mountable) to a hub and try to mount them :/, I got another debug zip.

After trying to load the modules with the terminal emulator, I get "init module -path and module goes here- failed (exec format error)"

EDIT: oh yeah, about the explorer being closed when trying to open a file, it happens with ES Explorer too, it seems anything that would open another app will instead just close the opened explorer.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Anoopnk:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
I've been wondering, what if we need the GB modules instead of the ICS ones? The ARC USB OTG STORAGE MANAGER is definitely a GB app and yet, it's the way I've been using to mount stuff in my phone. The app itself doesn't work but, it uses a module which actually works, at least for me :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] AfiAzrael:
I followed the instruction to install v4 n reboot my neo v but i only could read the file on my pendrive but can't write or copy files from it.

Why? am I missed something?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
Well, I just insalled the GB modules in my (ICS, stock kernel, locked BL) Xperia Pro and guess what, the app works now!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Suarezian:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
There's a link to the GB modules in the second post, every single module seems to work or, at least they're running now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] -Arturo-:
Hey is your HUB powered by external source?

I have problem reading pendrives/card readers. Actually out of four pendrives two work quite well but the problem is with card readers I tried to read different micro sd cards from 128 MB up to 16 GB with three different card readers and none of them worked. I suppose the card readers show that they need too much power probably 500Ma even though i'm sure it doesn't need that kind of power. So a usb hub should solve the problem can I get one without external power supply?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
It's just a regular non powered hub. Out of all the card readers I've tried, only 2 have ever worked so far without the need of a hub (a hub/card reader combo I tried worked pretty well though): in my case at least, a hub (powered or not) helps my phone read pretty much any card reader I've used. There will be things that will need extra power though, like hard drives. Also, one of the "powered" hubs I have is just a regular hub, with one end of a Y USB cable connected to it, and. The other end to a power source like a USB charger, battery or even one of my PC's USB ports :V

Wooooow, thanks alot, i am running Team Xperia Neo AOKP MS6Final with its own kernel+wifi modules, so... i can't use another kernels, i even tried your Suave Kernel but nothing....

i can connect my stuff via USB OTG but i have some problems and i wish i can fix with your modules!

Mouse: USB WIFI Microsoft Mouse

Problem: back at GB i could use all buttons as itself, now all buttons do the same "action"

Gamepad: TwinShock USB PC Controller

Problem: back at GB i could use all buttons, even triangle to back, X to select etc etc, now every button do the same action (as mouse does)

at my emulators it says the button action is <unknown> and thats why (but idk why u.u)

@Edit

SERIOUSLY!!!!!

i love you :p

it worked! i can now use my Pendrive in my neo with ics o/

but... mouse/gamepad still not recognizing all buttons ;x

if you can do something or tell me something to cheer me up :D

Hi, I have a neo with the jj's hybrid v 3.2 rom, locked bootloader and I wanted to try the usb otg to read a usb pendrive...

As the first thread says is it possible to read usb pendrives only loading the modules in the second thread...

It seems simple but I'm quite noob and even if i searched throughout the forum I haven't understood how to load the modules, what is fuse.ko and if it is less dangerous to unlock the bootloader and flash a kernel with usb otg support...

so... :D what is fuse.ko and how i have to load these modules? they seem flashable zips... am i right?

I haven't found a guide and I'm sorry if someone has already answered to these questions... thank you anyway! :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Simego:
to load a module you must throw it inside system/lib/modules

then reboot, you can use Module Loader too (check at playstore)

hit thx if helped :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] keymaker13:
ok... but there are three archives in the second post (as attached files): two of them contain "meta-inf" and "system" folders, the other one is the "fuse.ko" file...

do i have to copy the all the folders and the "fuse.ko" file inside system/lib/modules? or do i have to copy the single files which are in system/lib/modules (in the attached files of the second posts) in the system/lib/modules folder of the neo?

can I use file manager for all of them? is it just a simple copying then... right?

thank you for your patience :) (anyway i searched the module loader but there isn't any on playstore)

I sure don't miss those captchas before posting.

Download the USB OTG Helper app.

Download the zip you need from the 2nd post, ignore the attachments.

Flash it through CWM.

That's all you have to do, the app will load the modules by itself and mount your drive automatically. If it doesn't either:

Your kernel doesn't support USB OTG.

You need a different set of modules. Even though I got a stock kernel ICS Xperia Pro, I had to use the GB modules.

Try different devices before trying different modules though because, the phones doesn't seem to like several flash drives or card readers. Use a USB hub to connect your device if you can. If it's powered, even better.

Having to wait 5 minutes just to edit a post sure is annoying >_>.

a million thanks shardul_seth!

I just got my OTG cable for my Nexus 7, android 4.1.1 build JRO0D3, and NOTHING I tried let me write to NTFS. It just mounted read only. I've been trying to figure out this problem for hours, and even tried flashing a CM10 rom, but even that, with it's "otg support" didn't work. I tried a custom rom that supported "OTG, NTFS read/write" but it would only mount read only.

I then looked up "nexus 7 ntfs-3g" because I remembered from 'mount' that it was mounting it as 'ntfs' and I remembered that driver didn't fully support ntfs, but ntfs-3g did. So I saw this post and found your thread, and I was going to manually push the module and binary and scripts, but then I saw you had written an app.

Anyway thanks again! To the only possible way [so far] to mount NTFS rw on the Nexus 7 android 4.1.1 JRO03D stock rom, and probably all the rest of the ROMs too!

Hey shardul_seth, I don't think I saw this option, but can you add a setting so you can chose the mountpoint?

So for instance I can make a directory /usb [as root] and then point the app to mount any OTG drive as "/usb".. I don't think it'd be too much trouble, and it would be a good option for me to have.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mvmacd:
If you are really worried, I believe a powered USB hub would be a good solution. But can someone confirm everything would still work using a usb hub?

I use a external HDD, but it happens to have its own AC adapter. I have another drive, smaller, 2.5" that is usb powered. I watched a movie on it [1.5 hours], and it used up the battery a lot faster than normal [I think I was down to like 35%], because it was powering a spinning 2.5" hard drive the whole time.

But that was what I wanted, I had never taken it below 90% since I owned it [and initially charged it from 60% when it was mailed to me], and I wanted to calibrate the battery, by bringing down. I think I took it down to 30% before I put it back on the charger. Once I took off the 2.5" hdd, the battery went down much slower.

So I don't think there's too much to worry about, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] akaSM:
It does. I've tried actual powered hubs and a regular hub with a Y cable, one end connected to 1 of the hub's ports and the other one to any powered USB port (a PC port, a charger, etc)

You cannot however, mount 2 devices at the same time with this app. Stick mount can do it, I got both apps installed in my phone, USB OTG helper for the module loading and quick and easy mounting and, stick mount for multiple USB drives.
