In any USB connection, there has to be a "bus master" device, which "directs" all the other devices, and manages the transactions. This operation is usually done by a PC; while there are other pdas (I've seen HPs do it) which can be "reversed" and turned into bus-masters, no HTC device can do this. It is a hardware problem, as the pda needs some special hardware in order to be able to act as a bus-master. As a usb bus can't work without a bus-master, two "client" devices (such as your hermes and a usb memory stick) will not be able to work together.

Sorry!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Trane:
The Samsung S3C 2442 processor used by the HTC Hermes actually does have native USB Host support per Samsung's documentation here: http://www.samsung.com/products/semiconductor/MobileSoC/ApplicationProcessor/ARM9Series/SC32442/SC32442.htm.

Now if the wires are connected or not, that's a question I have not yet dug deep enough to answer. Maybe, maybe not.

The ETEN M500 supported USB Host while the M600 does not. These devices are identical hardware as far as I could tell, both using the Samsung S3C 2440. The difference is Windows Mobile 2003 on the M500 vs 5.0 on the M600.

This indicates to me that Microsoft has either omitted USB Host support which they previously included in the operating system, or a change in the OS has made USB Host very difficult to implement.

Hope this helps somebody figure out a way to hack USB Host onto our devices.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] KELVIN_SIR:
I'm sure many guys are interested in Samsung device for MULTI-WINDOWS & more importantly MULTI-INSTANCE (for me is of top interest)

I have lately discovered the reason why the stock browser in P605 or N9005 can launch MULTI-INSTANCE is Samsung add a "few code line" in stock browser apk "AndroidManifest.xml" file (pls refer to the RED BOX in attached picture).

I wonder whether other interested guys would repack their interested app with the purpose of launching MULTI-INSTANCE. My tip is to help other to further extend the power of "samsung multi-window" function.

Please let me know whether your try is successful or not. I am personally learning how to repack app and try a "multi-instances maxthon" in my device soon.

Good Luck

Hi

Is it good to root 5.0? or shall I wait to 5.1?

what will happen if I rooted on Lollipop 5.0 the upgraded to 5.1 using OTA update? will it harm my device?

Is there a trusted/tested root for Moto X 2014 Lollipop 5.0?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dark9781:
If you are rooted you will need to do a clean install of 5.0 before accepting an OTA to 5.1 or the OTA will fail. The way I use to root is to flash a custom recovery and then flash SuperSU.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pro.gangster:
what do you mean by "good"? in what aspects? the answer will depend on how you want to use after root features.

AFAIK, you have to stock recovery installed before getting any OTA, they wont even downloaded if you have a custom recovery, so you have to use fastboot to install stock "recovery.img" before getting OTA.

I used CF-Auto root method, its safe and easy, but beware, you have to unlock bootloader first.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miles_muso:
Hi All,

I've had an HTC one (m7) for about 18 months, but I'm increasingly favouring the new S6 Edge as my next phone; there are so many great features that I think will be genuinely useful.

Whereas I had a good grasp on the custom ROM scene with HTC phones, I'm not so sure what the state of play is with Samsung phones. I've read somewhere that Samsung's choice to use their own processor in the S6 will make it tough to access internals that are required for sucessful rooting.

Can anyone on this forum tell me if the above is true? Will I be able to customise and tweak the S6 in the same way that I'm used to on my m7? Is Touchwiz removable, or at least replaceable by another Launcher such as Apex or Nova? And would an alternate Launcher still have access to features like apps in separate windows, quick launch camera, etc.

I realise that I could learn most of this by googling here and on other forums, but it would be great if one of the regular contributors to this forum could give me an overview.

Thanks for your help,

Miles.

Are there any people on the forum that id be able to send my HTC One M8 in for repair?

It is soft bricked and in a bootloop.. ive tried everything and cant get it to work!

plz help
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] cntryby429:
You can almost certainly fix it without sending it anywhere. First off give some more info. What rom, kernel, firmware were you running? What happened for it to start bootlooping? What have you done to try and fix it? The more details the better.

If all else fails, there are guys here that will practically bend over backwards to help you out although they're probably a little busy with the ota that just dropped today.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] homthtrnut:
Remove your external micro sd card and reboot.

I was stuck in fastboot usb hboot mode. I read a similar post and he was advised to take out the ext sd card, reboot, and you should have recovery showing. Before you put the sd back in, make sure you have the ROM on it that you want to flash. Im assuming you already have twrp on your phone. I am emptying my sd card into a folder right now. I am putting the Revolutioin HD 22.1 ROM on it and hopefully flashing it so I can get back in biznisss. Dont forget to wipe cache and dalvik too just before flash (if memory serves) Ive poured through so many searches and forum posts that I cant remember much else than to get up once in a while to go to the little boys room. I keep noddin off.. anyway good luck and get a good guide step by step and proceed........

[XDA Assist] Heisenberg:
Hi :)

Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately I'm unable to find any custom ROMs for your particular device, this can be pretty common for low popularity devices such as this. I did find a thread containing root information though:

LG Optimus LTE2 F160L Rooting, Sms fix, Keyboard Korean diallor fix, Dual clock fix

Once you have root you can use Xposed Framework to at least have some level of customisation.

Xposed - General info, versions & changelog

Xposed Framework Modules

Good luck!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] sjbayer3:
I just got a galaxy S5. I am a long term android user but typically just went with CM as it is my poison of choice. However I recently moved to the US from Norway and found that T-Mobile has lots of interesting features like wifi calling, free edge data internationally, and some other things.

Now I am wondering if there is a way to use, for example, cyanogenmod and preserve the wifi calling... or if there are any custom roms that have this?

One thing I don't like about stock is that, for example, if I want to add an exchange email account it requires me to allow personal information be sent to Samsung/T-Mobile and that just pisses me off. They have no right to anything of that sort for integrated accounts like exchange.

[Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers] kaskeap:
I recently acquired an RK3288 TV box running 4.4.2 that claims to be capable of outputting 4k (3840 x 2160). The only reason for getting this was to be able to use a RDP client to display a huge desktop for my server on the local network on my shiny new Dell 4K monitor.

Here's the problem: In the Android settings, I set the resolution to 3840 x 2160 @ 30Hz, and the monitor OSD confirms that it's receiving this correctly. However, Android still thinks it's 1080, (at least according to Elixir 2) even though the settings menu and the monitor tell me it's 4k. Consequently, my RDP client also thinks it's 1080p, and even if I force 4k on the RDP settings, it just scrolls around the 4k desktop within a 1080 window.

Immensely frustrating -- is anyone out there clued up about this kind of thing....?

This is all personal opinion obviously but I agree with the previous two and suggest going for the Note 4, the bigger and removable battery as well as the bigger screen and microSD slot are the main reason for this from my perspective.

Definitely personal Preference. I would go with Note 4, as it has a removable battery, larger Screen, s pen, sd card slot up to 128gig (can use multiple cards to make phone size technically infinite), larger battery, and the S6 is also currently not going to be waterproof which the Note 4 also is not.

Hi all,

So, I would like to buy a new Moto E but I am to cheap to get it with a contract.

Is there a widget or app I could install that would allow this. This would basically be tricking my LG 306G into thinking the Moto E is a car smartwatch via Bluetooth.

Well, it's a very pretty theme. One thing to take to heart here though is that part of the reason people post is for the QA and bug reports. Bug reports are a good thing! No developer on earth has developed anything of note that's completely bug free, and any reports your project generates is proof that it is was judged a) worthy to install in a sea of competitors, and b) good enough that people wanted to see further development!

It takes time from an end user to come back and give a report. Most will just silently uninstall and disappear. Take it as a compliment that people were driven to provide some feedback!
