If it's running full Windows, and has a full size USB port, then yes, it's quite possible. Just install the software and flash! I do it with my Asus T100TA.

Micro usb
Yes running full windows 8 but have micro usb. Can I use OTG adapter? Will I blow my port if I use OTG?

No, it won't. As long as your micro-USB supports USB host mode with an OTG adaptor, it will work.
The worst that can happen is it won't find your phone to connect to.

Ahem: This is the Windows Phone 8 forum. The forum for Windows 8 (a quite different operating system) is over there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-8-rt. Please post in the correct sections.

You're using an 11 year old operating system that hasn't had a proper update in 4 years...
Probably a driver issue! IIRC ICS uses a different protocol for usb than GB, so that's probably why.

Sure xp is an old operating system but with the nexus prime i didn't have problems and it works fine. It' s a driver's problem but what could i do to solve it ? Thanks

go into device manager and remove the listed device with the error unplug phone an plug it back in and let it reinstall itself
if that fails, try it on a different pc if it works then you know its your pc causing it

USB Not Recognized when in Bootloader

Trying to unlock my bootloader, but when in bootloader mode and plugging my HTC one into my computer it saids "USB not Recognized."
Does anyone have any solutions for this? Can't seen to find one
Also side question, does rooting my phone hamper my ability to get system updates from HTC?
Do you have htc driver installed?
However, yes, you will lose OTA update from HTC

adb will recognize your phone?
However, which os you have?
Make sure you're plugged into a USB 2.0 port. 3.0 ports don't work with ADB on my laptop.

Ok, tried some minutes ago, with an usb 3.0 it will not work...

So its directly related to USB 3.0.
"sigh" gotta pull out my old windows laptop then
Mac is basically linux, and from my experience with linux, you need to configure some stuff in order to get things working, i'm on the phone right now so i don't have a link to share but i recommend looking online.for.a tutorial to build AOSP from source on linux or MAC, there you will.find the steps needed to set up your USB configuration, ignore the rest after the config or.what is not needed.
Hope this helps.

Does this mac have USB 3.0?
Does anyone have any solutions
If you do a search on xda theres new drivers posted specifically for guys having usb issues with 64 bit windows 8.
Can't remember where exact I saw it myself or I'd post a link.

USB otg htc 510 64 bits

Hi everyone,
I would use my mouse/usb key on my HTC desire 510. If i understood after my researches,that's not possible on all smartphone...
So, is that possible on our HTC ?
Thanks for your future answers !
yes our stock kernel supports usb otg, as well as supplying power out. i use a 32gb sandisk usb flash drive with my 510.
Thanks for your answer.
So, i bought this the hama otg (i cannot send a link) but when i plug it in my phone, i get a message like "Phone in host mode, impossible to..."
I root it with your img.

It shouldn't be much of an issue. It does that for me too but still works, do any other errors present themselves?
Sent from my XT1028 using XDA Free mobile app
Well, i just plug the otg in my phone, without other usb. It show me "Phone in USB host". I tried with OTG checker, my kernel is ok but no signal detected by the application.
I tried to turn off the phone, & remove the battery, then put in again & turn on. When i plug in the OTG, nothing appened for a moment then the cursor of the mouse that i connected in the OTG appear for just 1 second, like a flash & the message back again.
No other problems
Today i tried to make my own OTG usb to see if the problem is the phone or the OTG hama.
When i plug my own OTG usb, nothing happen. When i plug the other OTG i just get the same message i said in my previous answers, nothing else happen.
Any idea ? I don't know but is anything i have to do like turn ON USB debug or anything else ?
Edit: I got a Xperia today to try my OTG, it seems that he works well so i just need to ask: Is the HTC desire 510 64bits EU is compatible OTG ? If it is, why my phone don't recognised my OTG ?
Still need some answers here
It just not support USB HID over USB (mouse and keyboard). Could've been disabled by HTC (reason for cursor disappearing after 1 sec of plugging in).
Sent from my XT1028 using XDA Free mobile app
Hi ! Sorry for insisting but i read on official htc web site that the htc desire 510 support usb storage. So, why nothing else that the previous message happen.
I bought another OTG today & it's forever the same...
I want to bump this topic, I have european 64-bit version and when I connect OTG cable there's info shown about phone being in usb host mode but nothing else is happening.
My thought is that tey give this option to 32-bit US version and then disable it (clumsy) in european version.
Sorry for grammar, english is not my native language.
I dont personally own a desire 510 but I know that 90% of otg issues are with the cable... Try another cable because all are not the same...

Hi,Have u already fix ur desire 510 problems?
I already changed 3 different otg cables, seems like the same problem as u met....Any suggestions?
I had that issue when I flashed a moded kernel. Had to go back to a stock kernel and it fixed the usb issue
Sent from my 0PCV1 using XDA Free mobile app
USB OTG pops up a message in the notifications bar to let you know that you cannot simultaneously charge your device and utilise an USB device. The only reason that I can think of why the mouse cursor would disappear after a second is because you have your finger on the screen. I use my OTG with my digital camera (via Google Photos), USB Keyboard, USB Mouse, another Android device, and a 64GB flash drive almost daily, and I don't seem to have any problems.
Hello,can you please explain the details for that?

If your phone is not rooted and doesn't have a custom recovery installed on it then there is no way possible that you're using a different kernel, that means that you already have the stock kernel! Is your phone 64 bit?

I am not sure, the kernel version is 3.1028-g72f7e8d and @AbM103#1 SMP PREEMPT, the last two digits of serial number is 64 so does this mean it is 64bit? Thanks in advance

Where are you from? If you're in the USA then it more than likely is 32 bit but if you're in another Country it's a really good chance that you're using a 64 bit and from what I've read about it the 64 bit for some reason or another doesn't work correctly with the usb otg and I can't exactly do anything to help with that since I don't have access to any 64 bit phones.

Cant make my s5 work with usb 3.0

Well, here my problem: i bought a month ago, a s5 900a, btw the worst version ever, it came with a usb 3.0 cable, i have a new computer with just usb 3.0, the problem is when i connect it, the machine shows a message saying i can connect the phone in a usb 3.0 port...., etc, i bought a second cable just in case the first is bad, but i got the same problem, so here my question, there's any option in the phone to activate the usb 3.0?
usb 3.0 drivers on pc? there is a option on the phone once you plug it in to select 3.0 or 2.

No USB recognition at all, HELP.!

Hi, firts of all sorry for my english.
My sister give to me a BLU R1 HD 2GB RAM/16 ROM, it come without Amazon ads (so i think its OEM version). Its running BLU_R001UU_V21_GENERIC.
She told me that one day just not was recognized by PC to transfer files,photos, music. I make a wipe from recovery and still the problem no USB detection at all just charging, no sounds like new USB device was conected, no device on Device Manager.( i do this on diferents PC Windows 10, Windows 8, and Linux Elementary OS , Deeping OS)
I enable Developer Options and change MTP/PTP/Only Charge option and nothing happened; I opened the device to check the pins on the USB connector and check continuity and all seem like be perfect.
I thing that may be when was update to the last software something happen and lost USB recoginition, I want to Root the device and change Recovery but i see that the steps need connect the R1 HD to PC and make some things throw ADB console.
My question is: can i downgrade the original rom from SDcard in the actual Recovery.. to try recover the USB functions. or may be its something wrong on any internal chip that no make the USB conection.

I have not seen any other reports of usb dying after OtA update. You say you tried with different PC, what about using different usb cable?
But more bad news for your plans. If you have official v21 update, then you are not rootable anyway.

I have the exact same issue... and it happened just after an OTA Update. After that it showed it was charging only when the phone was shut down.
No USB recognition whatsoever. PC/Mac. Tried several cables.... All USB modes... Factory Reset... Nothing made it work.
I contacted BLU with the issue. As soon as I have an answer (If ever) I will let you know.
If any of you know anything about this please share it here.
Oddly enough, After a cache wipe and factory reset, I have no ads on the lock screen. The app is running on the background but nothing shows up.

I think if we can downgrade to a official rom under the actual recovery maybe that fix the USB. But all methods are under USB connection to PC.

As far as I know downgrading is not possible without making the phone unusable. If by any chance that is possible maybe an update from an SD Card can work.
