You MAY need the hub if the Ps4 controller indicates it needs more than 100ma on the USB port. Perhaps you can pick one up at Walmart and return it later if it doesn't work.

- Yeah, I don't think many people actually use or have tried OTG with their Touchpad. So there may not be a lot of traffic here.

Most of my OTG info actually originated from my Evo3D threads because it had the same chipset and processor as the Touchpad.

[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
Thanks. Is 100ma more than the stock TP barrel charger provides? Maybe I should just order one of those off Ebay, if that will provide the power needed, since I need one anyway after losing it. Is the USB hub more powerful than the barrel charger?

Also, adding all these things makes for a really clunky setup and sadly reduces the convenience of OTG connection. I guess I will have to decide if it's worth it.
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
That is not exactly the issue, but you should be using a 2 Amp (2000ma) charger with your Touchpad. 1.8A may work fine though. (Stock is 2.0 or 2.1 Amp I believe)

Regardless of getting 'enough' actual power from a charger to the devices, here is the deal/conversation between the TP's chipset (Host device) and the DS4 controller's usb chipset...

DS4: knock knock. Hi, I'm a device that needs 480ma from your USB port, can you let me in.

TP: From behind the closed door... Sorry, only 100ma or less here.

DS4: But I have my own USB power. Ugh@#%

(TP lets hot little 30ma thumbdrive through, followed but 35ma mouse)

Later... Ds4 comes back with its cute little 75ma Hub friend...

Hub: knock knock. Hi, I'm a device that needs 75ma from your USB port, can you let me and my friends in?

TP: From behind the closed door... Uh, sure you all look like only 100ma or less.

[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
I don't know many people where I moved to recently but if I can get my hands on a ps4 controller, I can see how thing work on my setup.

Please install those 2 USB info apps I mentioned before, they will help identify what the TP sees on its port:

USB Device Info

USB Host Diagnostics

[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
LOL....I like your knock-knock analogy. It does make a good point about power.

I downloaded those two apps you suggested but had some issues already when opening. I opened the "USB Device Info" app and immediately got this error message: "Vendor Database not found: To enable the resolution of Vendor and Device ID's, you need to download a few files. To do that, go to Menu/Update DB's."

I went ahead and installed those DB's. I then connected the DS4 with the powered OTG cable. It said "no devices detected: Plug a device in and hit Refresh". I hit refresh and still, nothing. I also closed out the app, with the DS4 still connected and re-opened the app. I get nothing but a black screen. It only comes back if I disconnect the DS4 and try over again, with the Refresh solution.

OK, I just tried it again and it seems to have recognized the DS4. It said /dev/bus/usb/001/006. I clicked on that and there's a bunch of stuff I don't know how to interpet. I am attaching a photo of it though....maybe it makes more sense to you. It does say "Vendor Name: Sony Corp", so that's a good sign, no? It also says "Product name: not in db".

I opened USB Host Diagnostics and ran it. I sent stuff to the server and it said my unique code is: 817342. I had the DS4 connected but it's unclear whether it recognized it. I was never given a 'pop up', as it said I might, and I pushed the back button and said the Diagnostics results were ready.

I hope I did this all correct....let me know if this tells you anything.

As always, really appreciate your help!
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
Thanks for the picture. What I was hoping to see was the reported power draw in ma of the DS4 controller. It's shown by one of those 2 apps somewhere I believe.

Hopefully I can get a chance to use the apps with some of my OTG devices tomorrow or this weekend with my TP.

[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
Thanks so much. After Friday, I'm gonna be swamped with work for about a week but hopefully we can find some solutions. Thanks very much for the help, as always.

By the way, I am having a real issue with my Touchpad, where it downloads every file I send to it as "RAW.extension". So, if I send a file like xxxxx.kl, it will save as "raw.kl"

What is going on?
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
I've got nothing to suggest on the raw file downloads.

[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
[MENTION=6870431]ConfusedTouchpad[/MENTION] ,

My coworker didn't come through on the PS4 controller (yet), but one of my USB Drives actually requires more than the 100ma max of the TP's USB Host port. I have attached pictures of the USB drive and USB Mouse connected with and without a USB Hub to the TP.

As you can see, the 480/500ma USB Drive does not report a MAX Current (won't work) to the Host port without a USB hub connected b/w the TP and device.

Note: I am not sure from your USB Device Info app picture in your prior post why it looks different than mine and doesn't show Max Current for your devices. I am running JcSullins' CM11 (4.4.4) Snapshot 20150113 and have the v0.0.5 of the Device Info App (and updated Database files)

[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
Alright, its confirmed on JcSullins' CM11 build...

You need a cheapo USB hub to use devices asking for more than 100ma with USB OTG on the HP Touchpad (don't need the hub with my LG G4 phone)

- I connected the PS4 controller via the powered OTG Y cable = didn't work/no control of the screen. (0ma shown)

- I connected the PS4 controller via the powered OTG Y cable & USB hub = works/able to control android screen & select items with d-pad, left stick, and some buttons. (500ma shown)

- I downloaded the modified PS4 remote play app from the other thread.

It didn't like the hub setup initially, but seems to work fine if the OTG cable (with hub and PS4 controller) is plugged into the TP after starting the Remote Play app (initialize OTG after starting the app).

I think this thread would be more visible and get more participation if it were in the Developer's section. Unfortunately, as the author of this thread, mpgrimm2 (and many other experienced HP TP users, power users and developers) didn't have the 10 posts necessary to participate in threads there. So, this highly-advanced, very technical hardware and development thread has gotten lumped together with entry-level, noob threads on how to turn the tablet on and play music, etc.

---------- Post added at 06:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

It's been a couple of months, so could you please provide an update? Did you and mpgrimm2 succeed in getting this working? If so, I'm very curious as to what capabilities it adds to the TP. Could it have uses in apps other than games? (maybe graphics or something really neat and convenient in text editing?)

If you weren't able to get this particular controller working, how/where was the failure? Maybe there's another type of controller that offers similar capabilities.

Thanks.
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
Thanks for the nod, but I'm am by no means a developer and know just enough to get myself in trouble when I get too confident. A sticky for this might be worthwhile though.

Never heard back from [MENTION=6870431]ConfusedTouchpad[/MENTION] about the PS4 controller issue. I did demonstrate that it can work/be seen by the Touchpad when connected via a USB hub.

For a lot of people, all the extras to get USB OTG working with the TP being a mouse or thumbdrive isn't worth the hassle, just neat to tinker with.

Sent from my LG G4 on Tapatalk.
[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
Apologies to you and others in this thread. I had back surgery 2 months ago and still recovering. I am not sure where things stand with the PS4 controller issue as far as your and others research about it, but I tried the controller with two different OTG cable (including a powered-one) and it did not work. Then again, I lost my original TP Barrel charger, so maybe that extra power might help.

I'll try again when I'm up and about!
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
Good luck on your recovery and I hope everything goes well.

If you do come back to try this out with the Touchpad, you will absolutely need a USB Hub for it to work. See posts 26 & 28.

Sent from my LG G4 on Tapatalk.
[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
Thanks...appreciate it! Will look forward to it. I assume you mean that merely connecting the powered OTG cable to the standard Touchpad Barrel Charger will not work :(

Happy holidays!
[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
Correct. You will need to go:

Touchpad - OTG cable/power - hub - PS4 controller

Sent from my LG G4 on Tapatalk.
[TouchPad General] ConfusedTouchpad:
Yikes! It may ultimately work, but that setup may be too cumbersome for me...just to get PS4 controller support! Not complaining at all, but it seems like perhaps too much stuff going on for me. May be worth it just to fork over the $$ for a Sony tablet....MAYBE. :crying:

SDR Touch on Touchpad not running

Hello,

i have tried for hours to get SDR Touch app running on my Touchpad. (11-20151116-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin)

RTL2832U driver app is installed as well.

With DVB Dongle connected, SDR Touch always give an error and won`t run (libusb exception LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND).

USB Dongle is powered via homebrew Y-cable. (HDD and various USB Sticks are working on Touchpad)

Same happens with RF Analyzer app.

On my cheap Captiva 10.1 pad SDR Touch with the same Dongle and cable is running without Problems.

RF Analyzer is also running.

Has anyone experience with SDR Touch and Touchpad?

thx

[TouchPad General] mpgrimm2:
I haven't used CM9 or my Touchpad in an while now, but yes, as mentioned in the OP it does support OTG. You might want to take a closer look at the OP / first seven posts as well as your setup/hardware.

So this is what happened .

i was stuck on 2.07 update with moonshine s-off and fully unlocked with root.

Every thing was going well but really wanted the kitkat update.

so i followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2612740 to RUU.

which got me to 3.06.

even got to keep my s-off status.

downloaded the 4.4.2 OTApks.zips and updated one at a time through stock recovery.

still maintained my s-off status in kitkat..

attempted root with weaksauce.

gained root.

SUCCESS!

flashed TWRP2.7.

still going well

. this is where it all went down hill.

attempted to unlock boot loader without a device wipe.

i used the unlock_boot loader.zip from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2160677.

and it worked!!

FINALLY I GAINED S-OFF ROOT AND UNLOCKED.

so i reboot the device and Unfortunately Verizon Login has stopped.

over and over again.......

Had to factory reset the device.

now weaksasuce isnt working for me poo.

o well. if i could do it over again i would see if kingo htc unlock would work.

i hope this helps out others having issues with root....

Now im S-off and unlocked.

but i cant gain root.

any advice is suggested.

Thank you for your help. I was running the Insertcoin M8 Port and the latest TWRP recovery. The problem seems to be bigger. I took the phone to a local GSM service and the guy there (the only one repairing HTCs in the whole city) said that there was a big mismatch between the hboot and baseband (not sure if these two) and also the ROM I was using started altering the system and the internal storage (he mentioned something about clusters and how the ROM degraded the system).

There were also some artifacts on the boot screen, he assumed that there are problems from the video card. I previously owned a Nexus 4 and had no problems rooting/flashing/using any ROM. He also pointed that the ultimate solution would be to disassemble the phone and repair the memory chip but with 50/50 chances of working..

COMMANDS LAUNCHER

[More screens in google play's page]

Hi all :)

This is my first "real" application. I done only CyanogenMod themes until now. For learning something about Android programming, I developed a small app, Commands Launcher.

It is very simple: you can define commands (only shortcuts actually) that you can use in a widget (homescreen and lockscreen).

I hope to add more features in the future, but as I'm an university student at the last year, I won't have much free time.

WIDGETS:

-Homescreen widget with a list of the commands defined (better than folders, it has an unlimited capacity and helps in saving space)

-Lockscreen widget [only from Android 4.2] that allows you to run commands directly from the lockscreen, without unlocking the device (note that this obviously won't work if you have a pin /password security for the lockscreen)

-1x1 minimum size

APP FEATURES:

-homescreen and lockscreen widgets

-three different text sizes for widgets (small, medium, big)

-side scrolling menù for helping app's navigation

-view of commands defined in a list

-backup and restore your commands in and from sd card

-three themes: light, dark, black (black is useful for amoled users, it will displays better and will save battery)

-four different transitions types between app's page

CHANGELOG

-1.5: now items of the list in the widget are centred

minimum widget size decreased from 2x2 to 1x1 (you may need to replace widgets)

-1.3: possibility to change widgets text size (small, medium, big)

small fixes

-1.2: other little fixes after first release

-1.1: little fixes after first releare

-1.0: initial release

DOWNLOAD:

Google Play

(if you like the app, rate it :) )

Enjoy :D

Alright...

I used softLocker overnight and it drained 4% over a time span of 4.5hrs, basically draining the batt at a rate or 0.89% per hour.
