any results for it??
OTG adapter fits, but the jump drive doesnt light up, indicating its not being powered, no recognition. but I am sure that there is an OTG chip on the device though. otherwise they would have a standard mini-a usb port.
where can i find an OTG adaptr??
Mine came with a set of usb adapters, for 20$ I can hook anything TO anything!!!
Although google is your best bet.
I also read that the chipset used in this PDA should have support for OTG USB, and that OTG is controlled by 1 pin on the USB connector, and that HTC might
have left it unconnected..
would be possible to connect it and have OTG functionalities?
Otherwise does it exist something like bluetooth hubs which transform usb devices into bluetooth?
I downloaded Nook Tweeks, enabled USB host mode and External vBus, but nothing happens when I connect a USB-stick via a micro ubs to usb converter.
Am I supposed to do something else? Or does the USB-stick have to be in some special format?

I got the same exact problem. It didn't seem to work at all.I think I'll have to order the adapter to see if the problem is the OTG cable or not

I ordered some cheap ones from DX, but since there are two of them and none of them works I'm assuming it's the Nook the problem is with.

It could be the USB-sticks are trying to draw too much power. The Nook host port will only supply low power USB devices (<100mA) and it is also best to have a fairly well charged battery. Some sticks work and others don't.
If you have a powered USB hub then this supplies the power so there is no problem. So try with a powered hub to at least see if that is the issue.

I used the same USB in this chart Nook Color USB HOST Device Compatibility List Sandisk Cruzer 8GB on CM7
I bought the Nook Color is to connect it to my camera via DSLRcontroller but so far still not successfully with USB stick.
Read my thread , it should answer most if not all your questions

I'm hoping to get some free time and update it this weekend with more info and probably a widget
I could never get usb host working on cm7. I have been trying to use RYC usb to control my Nikon Dslr . Once i switch over to CM9 beta it worked first time.

CM7 also shouldn't give you any trouble , as long as its FAT32 and you are using a hub
can you explain what exactly have you tried and provide logs?
I didnt use usb hub,just enable the usb host mode in Nook Tweak app and plug my usb via otg cable.

Then you didn't read good enough the thread or the chart..
You need an external hub ( powered or non-powered ) to work with the sandisk cruzer.
Thanks a lot, i ll order one and try it out.
I tried to connect with my camera but nothing happened,I guess I have to try with usb hub as well

Hello,
I have a USB OTG cable and dell keyboard that I have tested and work in OTG mode on a Nexus 7, however i cannot get them to function with my HP Touchpad 32gb, running CM9 2.6.35, built on Sun Oct 28.
The device recognizes when I plug in anything via USB, but only as a generic Linux USB hub, and not as any particular device. Are there any steps to take to debug this? Has anyone had experience with this type of an issue?
Thanks for your help,
Cory
I don't know if this is the issue, but I know the touchpad doesn't support OTG like the the Nexus does. I think you need a Y-adapter + OTG to provide power since the micro usb port doesn't give any power to the device you connect. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though.
Apparently even a powered USB requires a powered Y cable to be properly recognized. I hacked together a quick Y cable manually, by splicing in another USB cable's power and ground (Red and black) to the respective locations on a female USB cable. Works as expected.
I am now communicating with an Arduino over Serial
Thanks!
Read this thread, should give you all the info you need:

Basically the Touchpad has OTG but it provides no power.

Agreed. I think people just are not stating reality regarding the ability to charge and use OTG Hosting to USB devices at the same time.
My goal here has been to attach a flash drive with video/audio media and play & charge on long flights. It looks like play, charge are mutually exclusive on my beloved TouchPad.
I've asked for the specific confirmation of this from this YouTube but have never had the poster reply:

There are devices out there that have very advanced micro USB device implementations. Sadly the HP is only superficially supportive.
I for one cannot wait to get my SGN2 smart dock which offers:
Charging
OTG (x3 USB)
Audio out
HML HDMI out
Docked Profile
Does the USB port have any other function other than power?
Don't think so, only power AFAIK.
I plugged it into my computer and even tried pressing and pressing/holding the button on the Chromecast but my computer didn't indicate any hardware plugged in.
I wonder if the data pins are even wired to anything internally.
UPDATE: The USB cable that comes with it may not work for data transfer, tried it with my phone and it didn't work. So I tried a normal microUSB cable but still nothing.

It has bluetooth... so in theory that could be a simple alternative... we just need to figure out how to access hidden menus.

I tried this with a self powered USB OTG cable, just to see if the Chromecast would blink, bing, or do anything to show recognition, no dice. Also tried booting with a USB drive in, no difference.

Examining board
Based on examining the photos of the motherboard on ifixit.com...
Component EM1 appears to be a USB Common Mode Choke. That goes on the D+/D- pair which you can see routed from the USB port, so it wouldn't be present if there wasn't some use for data communication over the USB port. (Cost sensitive equipment.) The flip side of the PCBA shows TP1-TP20 (Where TP19 and TP20 appear to be GND). My guess is in that mix you have a JTAG port for programming/testing the unit initially with a pogo pin rig (evidenced by the dimples observed in each of those locations), and there might be more high/low GPIO pins where one might allow the unit to enter its USB data mode.

Looks like its already been rooted. With what looks like a dual usb otg. They don't go deep into what specific cable but, I would guess it is a generic dual usb one off ebay, or amazon, heres a quick one i pulled from amazon http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Cable-P...8&qid=1375052489&sr=8-3&keywords=Dual+Usb+otg
But if you read into it, they say you can root, but unless your a developer you probably wont get any benefit of rooting....yet, if at all.

Please correct me if Im wrong, but the cable you linked only charges the thumbdrive/keyboard/mice/etc NOT the Chromecast so how would one root it since it does need power from usb plug? I've been searching for correct cable and cant find it; link to correct cable would be greatly appreciated!!!

I own that cable from Amazon and it should work. It brings in +5v from a charger connected to the female microUSB port and then splits it to the female full size USB port and the the male microUSB port so both the USB host device and the USB peripheral device are getting power.

I also bought that powered OTG cable off Amazon and it will power the Chromecast as well as provide the means to flash the Chromecast via a USB thumbdrive. When you apply power to the Chromecast, it automatically flashed the bin from the USB drive. There was no interaction required (or even possible). Of course this was on the original firmware - if your Chromecast updated itself, you have lost the ability to root the device at this time.
Clearly the Chromecast does sense the USB drive and pulls data from it during the initial boot sequence. However I'm not sure if it would ever work for other devices such as keyboards or storage devices, etc.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to hook those types of devices up to the Chromecast however. Once you have root, you can telnet into the device, so adding a keyboard doesn't seem that important. The whole idea of the device is that you send it media from other devices and control it via that other device. Adding storage for example doesn't seem important since it can pull media off the network already (ie a NAS or another computer).
Anyway. That has been my experience with it so far. It's a long winded answer to more than just your question about the OTG plug.
I would personally love the ability to send audio out without having an hdmi TV be on through the usb somehow...

USB Tethering not working - SGH-i997
Hi all,
i have install Avatar 7.0 to my Samsung SGH-i997 from "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174227". it's look cool.
But when i am trying to USB Tethering, the massage shows as "Unfortunately,Setting has Stopped".
how to Fix this issue.
I have a Nexus 6 rooted, build (lineage_shamu-userdebug 9 PQ3A. 190801.002d3c5a43eee4) w/ LOS 16 and Nethunter. I have tried multiple android and LOS versions to get the USB connected wifi device to be recognnized. (Panda PAU09) I've tried 3 different cables, Y-connecter cable, all with no luck. I can connect to the phone with my computer and do all the ADB functions, but can't make the phone see a WIFI device. My LSUSB command only shows a 3.0 and 2.0 root hub and the Qualcomm CDMA tech MSM. I do not have a SIM card in the phone, and I'm wondering if that is affecting the problem. The phone connects to wifi perfectly. Any thoughts on a fix for this? Is this a lack of SIM card or something else I'm missing to use an external USB wifi adapter?
Would you explain why this is needed? Only on my 1st cup of coffee.
Why dou you think the kernel should include the driver for your wifi adapter. I'm not saying it does not, but you can't take it for granted
First step is to get the device to show in lsusb. That part does not require any device-specific support from the kernel or rom, AFAIK.
Try an ordinary USB memory key. If that doesn't work, your OTG cable is probably bad.
Monitor mode
So I can use a wifi adapter with monitor mode.

Agreed- memory sticks work, lsusb shows 2 devices on bus 001 and one device on bus 002, then when I plug a memory stick in I get a device on bus 003 and 004. When I unplug the memory stick (or wifi adapter) I continue to see bus 003 and bus 004. Same results with 3 OTB cables, and 1 Y cable.

The Offensive Security nethunter image says it does. I don't think it's a driver issue (I could be completely wrong) I'm hoping I can patch the firmware for the wifi chip with the NEXMON patch, but that's beyond my right now.
Have you tested the Panda in a computer?
Maybe it requires more power than the phone supplies. Your Y cable, does that connect an extra power supply?

works great in laptops and a rasberry pi. Y cable does provide power, didn't seem to change anything.
