I just came across this on another thread ( Hp Touchpad OTG Compatibility ), but can't find anywhere to buy it.

Sanwa USB Reader/Dock Station for Android (OTG)

So cool, but I can't find anywhere to purchase it. (not sure if I need it either, but still.) Time to activate the Ramjet signal!

Update: Stand Down.

Heres a version at amazon: http://amzn.com/B006MJZOMW $24

Remember how everyone was wanting MHL and USB OTG ???

I just came across...Juiced Systems 5 in 1 MHL Adapter - Supports MHL/USB Host/SDHC/MicroSDHC/Micro USB Power - Galaxy Nexus and NEXUS 7 Tablet .. $37 and had a nerdgasm.

Now, whether or not all functions will work with the Evo3d, IDK, but our phones do support all functions separately. Someone would need to get one to verify. Who's first?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
I like your original find because the build quality looks better. It comes with an extension cable too, which is a better setup IMO. Since we can't use OTG and MHL/HDMI together I don't mind using a different adapter for MHL.

Here's the manufacturer's page which needs to be Google translated for most of us.

BTW, your "nerdgasm" model is also available on eBay for a few bucks less.

And here's the info on the Juiced Systems site for the "nerdgasm" model, but it really doesn't say much more about than the Amazon listing. According to one of the reviews of that adapter on Amazon you can't charge and use OTG devices at the same time, but maybe he just doesn't know how to set it up properly or isn't supplying enough current from his power source.

Fyi,

Kernel Tuner v3.5 now has a toggle that will enable USB OTG with a standard UsB cable on the Evo3D ( Anthrax / Buttered Toast Kernels) ! I've tested it and it works. See the request here

Ok, I am trying to get OTG working on my CDMA EVO 3D. I am running the Smooth Criminal 2.3 ROM with ButteredToasT kernal. So far I am not having any luck. I think I have a hardware setup that should work (see picture). I am using an OTG adapter with a powered usb hub. I have tried both a flash drive (FAT) and an external hard drive (NTFS, I know this may not work). I've tried using StickMount and Paragon apps mentioned in this thread, but neither detect anything. I am rooted with HBoot 1.40. I do have hardware version 002, which I think I read somewhere can be a problem. The setup I have pictured does work with my laptop fwiw.

I have ordered the usb powered otg cable and usb hub that mpgrimm2 references earlier in this thread. But they are coming from China, so it will be a while.

Is there something wrong with my current setup? I'd appreciate any help I can get.

EDIT: So I did a little more investigation with the USB Host app from Chainfire. It looks like everything is supported except Android API. Any clue what that means? I also tried a plain old usb mouse and that didn't work either. I've also tried using Kernal Tuner with the USB OTG option on and no luck with that either.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The "Android API" isn't required for OTG to work on our device.

I normally supply power via my "Y" OTG adapter but simulated your setup by hooking the male USB connector from an active USB hub to the female USB connector on the OTG adapter and leaving the power side of the adapter disconnected (see first attachment).

The flash drive worked for me on mazda's AOKP ROM with ButteredToast using stickmount, but the mouse didn't. It did on MeanROM ICS 2.6 concurrently with the USB flash drive (note the mouse cursor over the favorites icon in the second attachment) so the keyboard and mouse might need something in Sense. Mounting was not required for the mouse to work.

I'm not familiar with the cable you are currently using but it's possible that it is not wired correctly to be detected as an OTG host connection. Based on my testing the setup you have should work, at least for the mouse and the flash drive, as long as it's detected as OTG and you have an OTG compatible ROM and kernel installed.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] mpgrimm2:
USB Host Diag. App doesn't show much different for me (meanrom & anthrax 3.7.0) when I check it with my hub & wireless mouse (downloaded it just for this).

I typically use "Usb Device Info" app because it will list connected devices, hubs, and current draw even on devices that won't fully function.

2 options to check with ButteredToast or Anthrax Kernels (others may implement these features differently)...

- plug in the OTG CABLE and using a file browser (like EsFileExplorer) go to

/sys/kernel/debug/msm_otg/

and open the "mode" file as a text file. It will say either: None, Host, or Peripheral. It should say host. Close the file, remove the CABLE, re-open the mode file and it should say none. All this will do is verify that pins 4&5 of the Otg CABLE are shorted, it won't verify working data lines on pins 2&3 or working ground on pin 5.

I have had this happen to me on an identical otg cable as yours that was defective.

- Install the Kernel Tuner app. It has an OTG toggle function that enables OTG with BT and Anthrax even with a standard cable. This will also help figure out if the cable is bad.

Update:

I see that u already tried KernelTuner and that was a nogo (not looking good for the CABLE you have). I'm not familiar with Smooth Criminal but depending on how u installed the kernel there may be an issue with whether or not init.d files are active which is required by ButteredToast & Anthrax.

- Basically the system/etc/init.d/99buttered file has a line in it needed to enable the otg modules ...

# load scsi-wait driver for OTG
insmod /system/lib/modules/scsi_wait_scan.ko

If u deleted the Rom's system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh file you may have broken init.d support, then again the Rom may be setup for init.d support via ramdisk vs the post_boot file.

Ramjet73 (cough) has a zip file you can flash that let u verify if init.d is working or not. Maybe he can post it here (or in the op). I think I remember seeing it in the Buttered kernel thread.

If none of that works and u can't wait on the cable (mine showed up to VA in about a week) you can try making your own, its fairly well documented but a bit of a pain.

[HTC EVO 3D] bkertz:
Thanks for the tips. I'm going to give these a shot later today when the kids take their naps.
[HTC EVO 3D] bkertz:
USB Device Info shows my USB hub, but nothing plugged into it (not even the mouse).

Checking the mode file with the OTG cable unplugged shows "none". With the OTG cable plugged in, it shows "host". I'm assuming this indicates OTG should be working and my cable might be bad.

The SmoothCriminal ROM comes with ButteredToasT by default, so I didn't flash the kernel. It doesn't have the newest version, but I did verify 12.2 does support OTG.

I checked the 99Buttered file and it does have: insmod /system/lib/modules/scsi_wait_scan.ko

I also have system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh.

I think I'll try the init.d test from ramjet73 later when I have a little more time. My linux skills are shaky at best, but it would appear that init.d is working for me. I am a technical person (java developer by day), but time to do research is my biggest enemy. I'd love to get involved in development, but it's just not possible right now.

Compact OTG Adapter

I just saw this OTG adapter on eBay.

It doesn't have a connector to supply external power so it would only work with a powered USB hub on the Evo 3D, but something like this may come in handy in the future for phones that have no SD card slot but can supply power via USB host mode for a flash drive.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] bkertz:
Interesting find. I like how it is compact, but I think I'd be worried there wouldn't be enough flex and could put too much pressure on the micro usb port.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Yea, that's true.

The ideal device would be a flash drive the size of the USB wireless adapters that come with mice and keyboards that has a micro USB connector and is wired for OTG with 64GB of memory. ;)

I got my hands on the Juiced Systems 5in1 MHL & OTG adapter and here are the results...

Evo3D (doesn't work):

When plugged into the 3D, it is seen by the /msm_otg/mode file as "peripheral" (not host). The button to switch between OTG/MHL doesn't appear to change anything either (ended up getting the button jammed in and had to pry adapter apart to free it). Can't read anything with the card reader portion either. I did use external power with the adapter.

HP Touchpad CM9 (doesn't work):

Nearly same outcome as the EVO3D except I am able to activate OTG thru the USB port I added internally to the TP. So the adapter is able to short the id pins and activate OTG, but nothing works through the adapter itself.

Moto 8.2 xyBoard (works):

OTG and card reader is fully functional through the Juiced 5 in 1 adapter as long as external power is NOT applied to the adapter. xyBoard doesn't support MHL so I couldn't test it.

I got the Micro USB Host OTG Cable With USB power and usb hub from applecable on eBay that mpgrimm2 mentioned. It appears that my earlier troubles were related to the OTG cable I was using. With the new otg cable with USB power, I had no problems mounting multiple USB devices. My main goal was to get external storage working so I could put a bunch of media on it for an upcoming trip to Europe. I was able to use the StickMount app to mount FAT formatted flash drives. I also used the Paragon app to mount an external 1TB NTFS drive.

My setup: I did not use the USB hub. I just plugged the micro USB end of the OTG cable into my phone, the external storage into the female USB port of the OTG cable, and plugged the male USB end of the OTG cable into an external battery. The external battery powered my external USB storage (external drive and flash drives) as well as charged my phone. For reference I have a newTrent battery that outputs 600 mA and an Anker battery that outputs up to 3A.

Here are links to the batteries I have:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrax83:
Hey guys my s3 is great except every night when I get home I need to manually go into my mobile network settings and set it to GSM rather than Auto. Reason for this is at home at night my 3G drains my battery immensely. I'm currently running omega 27.9 with root but this also happened on stock.

I'd like to find a way to either set it up by toggle through a widget, or through taster somehow. This is different from just turning off 3G data because the voice component will still search for the 3G network, I want to find a way to actually set voice and data to GSM hopefully automatically (perhaps screen off for 10 minutes?)

I had look at tasker but it could only toggle the data network.

Thanks!

First froze them. If they don't make any difference being frozen you can uninstall them.

Like that, if you find yourself in trouble, just need to go back and un-froze them again.

For that I use Root Uninstaller Pro, is very easy to use. And you can combine with AntTek Explorer to delete the app directory or data directory.

AntTek Explorer is also good to see all the files that Polaris Office don't show, like Root, etc...

I'm working on a project doing Firmware/Bootloader analysis and documentation.

This will eventually be crucially important in providing service, repair and

unbricking of these device. And if you think that these will not soft-brick,

just remember that the OS have "Windows" in it's name...

However, this project requires detailed knowledge of the following two components:

Bootloader & Firmware files

Partition Table

To make things more simple for this project, I have chosen to only focus on devices using the Qualcomm

Snapdragon S4 Plus/Pro processors, these are also known as the MSM8960, MSM8960T and MSM8930.

So if you have any of the devices shown in the list below, please try to extract and post these details,

when and if they become available. (I recommend using Sendspace to upload large files.)

[Obtained from the PDAdb web site.]

This list is in no way exhaustive, and it may be very likely that you have another device or still using

Windows Phone 7 (?) with that same processor. That would also be interesting. Another thing that may

be very useful, is documentation related to the Windows Phone build structure.

The results of this project will be published here and will benefit the development community

in several different ways.

Please do not post any general unrelated questions here, they will be removed.

And I will not answer to any support related PM's.
