Update on USB Host for X7510

Some of us requested an update with USB hosting which may solve the problems with connecting Athena to digital cameras, external hdds, high capacity flash disks (and other powered devices). Since the X7510 model had included the 4 in 1 cable on the accessories and owners already used it, many might experience the incompatibility of the devices mentioned with the USB host.

The team just asking for a little donation so that they can buy the 4-in-1 cable, which is essential for the USB host update development...

If you are willing to donate a little on the project pls. do so, so that we can enjoy using our X7500,X7501,X7510 with our favorite portable storage media....see here:

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slm3:
Iv had my g1 for a couple of weeks and i was able to skip the google account setup part and do it later.. I have done steps1-3 of the How to root.

I'm now stuck at the setup screen with an o2 sim.

Any ideas? can i download another DREAMIMG.nbh with the option to skip?

Thanks
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
What's the question? Why do you need to root again if you've already rooted? o2 sim will not work in G1 unless you unlock it, rooting will not unlock your phone. rc29 or rc7 don't have an option to skip sign-in, you HAVE to sign in to root, but you're are already rooted so why? Any ADP1 based rom will have an option to skip sign-in. I guess I don't understand what are you trying to achieve.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slm3:
I bought it unlocked and I put the sim in,no problems it was all fine. The seller told me it isn't rooted and I never did a hard reset so I didn't see the setup options on this phone to double check. The G1 I bought for my girlfriend was factory restored and had this option available, so presumed they were all like that.

Sorry for any confusion and thanks for the reply
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
Just use the guide that allows you to sign in using wifi.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slm3:
Dont you need a rooted G1 to do this? I was reading something to do with wifi setup but required root
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
Yes you do need a rooted phone to do set-up over wi-fi.

Why can't you do regular set-up? It's only few kb of data transfer....

Hi i followed the beginner's guide. My HTC USB Sync is updated and I am in bootloader mode. But I am unable to install the USPL.exe. It keeps prompting me whether I am in bootloader mode if not please update your usb hub. Some one please help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
When in bootloader, does the bottom of bootloader screen change from 'serial' to 'usb'? If not you may need to update usb drivers on your pc.

Also, open activesync and go to connection settings. Make sure you have selected 'allow usb connections'

Any further queries should be posted in dummies guide to flashing.

Hi,

I have blackstone, recently I am facing strange problem which is I can charge my battry using the USB cable however, I cant read any data using the USB cable.

Reading any data means I cant run Active sync nor read the SD Memory.

Please note I've done the following trouble shooting:

1. Changed the USB cable

2. Cahgned the USb port

3. Changed the computer.

4. Format my computer

5. Hard reset the Blackstone.

6. Turn off any firewall.

7. Play with all option from the screen Setting ==> Connection ==> USB to PC

8. Play with the power option in order to or not to charge from the USB.

all the prevous steps resulted that I can only charge the batry but I cant connect to device manager.

Finaly My rom was cocked and I restore it back to original.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:

No that did not work.

by the way do your solution was permenant or every time you have to put it 90%

do that means the port of the USB is physically damaged?

I'm trying to get the S730 to work with a Travelpilot FX carkit.

(I heard blaupunkt uses a Nokia BT module for this)

I'm using the S730 with WM6.1.

Without Jetware, I have connection, but no phonebook.

With Jetware, I do have phonebook.

With or without jetware, I don't have caller id!

Any idea how to fix that?

Would caller id work with WM 6.0?

Solved it.

No need for Jetware, just change the registry entry for

from

"OEMAGP.dll"

to

"\Windows\BthAGPhonebook.dll"

Now everything works fine.

[General Questions and Answers] timmymarsh:
Hey bro,

If you have no idea what rom you are using, u will be using stock rom.

Stock = offical HTC rome included with device.

Cooked = another/different rom, not originally intended for use on ur device, or provided by HTC. A cooked rom has been "altered" to work on ur device. They work better and faster and provide more functionality than stock roms.............

It would appear that bluetooth is a problem with all 6.1 roms (cooked or stock!!)

ok, time to complain to HTC (for what good it wil make)

I may merge these threads into one, as they are related.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] awtryau89:
Ok, I have only had my new Rogers Magic since last Thursday. I have unlocked it to AT&T and flashed it with the HoFo Community Rom. I am converting from a Blackberry. Email is probably the most important thing to me. First of all, Android OS is absolutely the best thing I have run across. It has everything I wanted and used from Blackberry but in better delivery. It also bridges the gap to the iPhone experience and gives me all the feature I would want and use from that type OS. I hope to make this my new phone and OS indefinitely. There is only one main issue, battery life.

I am a power user. I am on my phone a good bit when I travel but in the office, it can stay on the charger if necessary. I have a couple of apps installed that may be using too much battery but if I can't use them regularly, the phone's advantages no longer become useful. Here is a list:

Touchdown-On (syncs every 15 mins)

Gmail Sync-On (push on)

Youmail-On (syncs every hour)

Twidroid-On (syncs every hour)

Bluetooth-Off

Wifi-Off

GPS-On (read where this does not effect things unless an apps is using it)

3g-On (have switched to 2g and do not gain appreciable life so far)

I also have something showing up in taskiller I do not know what it is. It shows up as com.google.android.apps.maps:FriendService. I do not know if this is killing the battery.

I am also using 4 widgets:

Battery Widget by mippin

Touchdown Calendar

Google Search

Portrait/Picture Frame

I do have 4 toggle widgets for Bluetooth, Wifi, Brightness and Ringer. I did not think these effect battery life but they do show up in taskiller. Screen brightness is set to 20%.

As an example, today I took the phone off the charger from an overnight charge. It was showing 100% battery life. I did this at 8:12 am. I sat it on my desk and did not touch it. I got 3 emails though Touchdown and 3 emails through Gmail. I opened the phone to read and delete. That was all I used the phone for. At approximately 9:45 (1.5 hours later) my charge was down to 76%. Another example. Last night I took the phone off the charger at 100% to make a phone call. I talked for 1 hour and 10 minutes. When I got off the call, I had 54% battery remaining.

I tried to be as detailed as possible here. If there are questions let me know. I hope I do not have unrealistic expectations but overall I am thinking there may be something wrong. I am up for any suggestions and I am going to give this phone all the time I can. I have read through every battery life thread on this forum. I plan on conditioning the battery this week and have read to top it off as often as possible. Sorry for the length but I am actually hoping there is an issue and I can fix it. I still have my Blackberry and don't want to go back but I just can't be looking for a charger in every airport or meeting room I am in.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bastage:
I Cant tell you what the process is called as I only use gmail, but you can set gmail up to check your other emails & Then use only the native email push to the phone rather then the extra email apps syncing once an hour.. I Can tell you that I too am a power user, but in a different way.. I only have 1 email address, but I use the met on my phone as well as gTalk & sms constantly & I have absolutely no batter life issues.. I am also running nearly as many widgets (you have the rounded labs ones to turn everything on & off?).

With heavy use my battery will end up in the 50% range after a full day away from a charger.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] awtryau89:
Thanks for the reply.

I can't use Gmail to get my corporate email so that is out. I do have the rounded labs widgets and I am keeping everything off at the current moment. I am trying the top off method to condition the battery. I read about that on here. Maybe things will get better soon.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Donkey3000:
It might just be a fluke, but ever since I started killing my browser (via taskiller or advanced task manager) when not in use, my battery is lasting much longer now. Also, its not uncommon for it to clear up to 30mb ram that was in use from the browser.

I'm also on the hofo community rom (v 1.10) on a rogers magic and come from a blackberrry myself and have a similar setup (gmail push, touchdown synch 15 minute and push turned on, other email x2 on 15 minute sync, wifi and bluetooth off, but i leave 3g on most of the time).

Cheers.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Case_:
Did you drain your battery fully in the few days you've got your phone? You're not supposed to drain the battery very often, that's bad for these batteries, but it is recommmended to do it when you buy your phone and every once in a while afterwards. Just let it drain until the phone switches off (do NOT turn it on again trying to drain the battery even more!), then put it on a charger and charge it for a few hours (you can turn it back on once you put it on the charger). Keep it on the charger even after it says it's fully charged. If you don't do this every once in a while (say, once a month or two), the battery meter won't be accurate and will tell you you've got less battery left than you really do.

If this doesn't help, I'd suggest investigating the widgets and/or background applications. Some of the widgets may be preventing letting the phone enter sleep mode, therefore causing unnecessary battery drain (ironicaly, even the battery widget can do this), or may be checking something a bit too often. I'm running my Magic with stock ROM, but pretty much the same setup as you (wifi on, 2G only, Gmail/Contacts/Calendar autosync on, mail and Twidroid set to 30mins, but slightly different widgets and I do close the apps in the background when I don't need them using TaskPanel), and it takes me almost 24 hours of light use of the phone (reading a few mails/SMS/twitts, replying to them, installing updates from Market etc.)to get to something like 70%.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] awtryau89:
Thanks for the replies. Actually I did drain my battery a few times. Once on purpose and 1 other by accidentally leaving it off the charger over night. I am beginning to see a bit better life from the battery now that I am getting it conditioned.

Also, I did run some tests today while the phone was on my desk. I installed Watts to monitor battery usage. I used Taskiller to kill everything and added the programs that I thought might be using battery back in one by one every hour. I noted the biggest drops. The worst offender was actually Youmail. I had just been notified of a beta version and updated a few days earlier. Turns out it had a pretty bad bug in it where it used 100% CPU resources trying to connect. I emailed Youmail about it and they sent me another download. It seems to be doing better now but I will monitor it closely. Next worst was Background Data. Turning this off helps a bunch. WeatherBug, Twidroid and Touchdown all seem to effect battery life very little depending on how often you have them set up to update. I did all this with 3g on so I know I can save more with 2g. With everything on except background data and just updated Gmail myself, I am seeing = to or less than 5% battery drain per hour. When I really crank things up by browsing or downloading, I see a bigger drop. Phone call also cause a bigger drop.

Overall, I think I am getting a handle on things. I still am a bit upset by overall battery consumption. I just hate having a phone with all this function and flexibility being severely limited by the battery.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] skhell:
I also have a battery issue. Overnight the phone drains about 70% of the battery. I tried the battery on a friends HTC Magic 32A, and it lasts about 2 days.

I no widgets and using TaskKiller and Advanced Task Killer Free to monitor the running applications, but up to now, I haven't been lucky, and it keeps draining the battery.

The ROM I am using is "Smartphone France ROM by spfrance - Based on HTC Magic, dedicated for European users", but while using the original ROM it was the same...

Without making things too complicated, and to simply get you back up and running. just flash another ROM....

That way you will have your phone back in working order and you can do some more research regarding ROMs. Keep in mind that many of the Hero ROMs are still somewhat buggy but are coming along nicely.
