Has it USB host functionality to attach e.g. a hard drive?
Would be interesting to know
Regards,
Rainer
since universals cpu is PXA27x.....(272),then it has a USB host functionnality...and if u are wondering...then yes...this means that u can connect ur HDD to it,and guess what....it's the first HTC device with USB 2.0,so imagine!!!!!!!
RAGO :lol:
Great news!!! Makes me wanna get this device even more
So you want to carry a big device around and then an external hard disk drive! Seems a bit over the top for something to do your phone / email on.
But isnt the USB on the MDA IV mini usb? How do normal usb devices work on a mini usb port?
Magician has also an Intel PXA272 but as far as I know USB-Host isnt working. If it works please correct me.
Lets hope that USB-Host will work on Universal.
Has anyone tried USB-Host on Universal yet?
Btw is there another cable needed (are other Pins of the 5 in the MiniUSB Plug used?) or just an adapter for the end of the USB-Cabel
Has anyone tried USB-Host on Universal yet?

the device have been been released yet so unless people here
get early samples to review i dont think anybody have tried it yet

No time or kit handy to test I'm afraid.
I got sent some info that claimed the Universal does have USB host (from someone claiming to have one for testing but is under NDA) - but nothing confirmed or proved.
Having a PXA27x processor does not have to mean that the USB host functionality is made use of. The HP iPAQ hx4700 and Dell Axim X50v both have processors capable of USB hosting - but neither device makes use of it.

I didn't say that ONLY PXA27x have USB hosting functionality,and am quite sure ur right concerning the iPAQ and the Axim.... :wink:
"PXA27x CPUs have USB host functionality",said Intel:
"Does the Intel® PXA27x family processors support USB Host in addition to USB Client?
Yes, the Intel® PXA27x family processors, supports USB HOST and Client (Rev. 1.1 compliance) and USB On-The-Go (OTG). "
Read this http://www.intel.com/design/pca/applicationsprocessors/faq/pxa27x_faq.htm#usb
Still...untill the Universal is released and fully tested,all we are saying remains theories :wink:
untill then.......
greetings..
RAGO :lol:
A bit extreme though and I find it hard to accept that we need a USB client for the device. I mean what's next, having ActiveSync installed in the Universal and have other handheld devices sync in it as well? Weird...
Still the idea seems good...

Er... what?! I'm not sure you read my point at all...!? I said nothing about whether other processors have USB host or not - I'm not at all sure why you think I did?!
I simply pointed out that PDAs with the PXA27x processor don't always make use of its USB host functionality. In your original post you appeared to suggest that the presence of the PXA27x would mean the Unviersal definitely has host functionality - I was correcting that.
BTW - don't assume either that the Universal has USB 2.0 - I've not seen a single report that it does - and though the PXA27x does support it - only one Pocket PC with that processor has, to date, implemented it.
Remember - the XDA IIi has a PXA272 processor - and has USB Client 1.1 only and no USB host.
No answer yet?
Come on people!
Surely, there are several testers on this forum already..
Why haven't you tested this yet?
who are the testers?
i havent seen any
but then i'm a bat
well one problem with testing i guess is getting the cable
guess it would need usbA or B depending on the type of usb mass storage controller in one end and a universal connector in the other
if no such cable came with the device then
maybe people would have to make the cable themselvs
usb hosting
Well dudes, I sent an email to clubimate techsupport asking them about usb hosting capability, still waiting for an answer... maybe if enough people email them, they will take notice and put it in their faq or whatever...

I tired on my JASJAR and didn't work...
At least JASJAR has the usbd.dll and usbhid.dll.

Can you connect a keyboard and tell us
what will happen ?
Edit: I'm not a microsoft expert, but if there
is a background program like activesync that
forces the port to slave mode, then nothing should
happen.
I don't remember its name, but this program
should be killed.
Sorry if its a well known question but havent used my uni for a while, running WM6 and the rom I have has a USD HDD program on it.
Is this possible???
Either for mem sticks etc or for proper HDD(USB)
I have used the search and am still none the wiser.
yeah, it should run everywhere, even under linux
the only problem is, that the uni only supports sd-cards up to 4gb
greetings

Universal doesn't have USB Host HW ...
But.......Yes ! You can find some special HDD like Asus WL-HDD( or clones) working perfect with Universal by WiFi connection .
I used it for Universal too
Thanks for the replies, thats all I needed to know, doesnt do my plans for the uni any good on account of the sd not working but never mind
I have my note3's 3.0 USB cable is it possible that i can use it with pc and get ultra fast data transfer speed...usually i get 3-6 MBPS which is very slow. Any way to fix that copying speed?
Try it using the USB 3 cable, it should work and let us know what speed you achieve, want to get a couple of 3.0 cables myself.
Also note that when the cable and both ends support USB3, it'll show up on the list of choices that shows up when you connect your device. I would imagine you have to select the faster 3.0 setting to attain it.

I have searched the forum for this but I am not finding info about mounting under older version of linux w/o MTP support. Previously mounted android filesystems from motorola devices as simple usb devices via haldaemon, is there any way to restore that behaviour for the Samsung phones? Kies not available for linux, and I don't run those other O/Ses.
Thanks in advance,

Hello people!
Okey so it took me over a week to figure out how to enable USB 3.0. And when I finally figure it out, it was as simple as enable it on the fu*king phone I was truly feeling dumb...but now, every single time I connect it to my computer I have to go in to the phone and check that option. I want it to automatically use USB 3.0 when it can. The worst part of this is that it goes back to fu*king USB 2.0 if I didn't transfer any files in the first 10 min or so...
I'm now using CM11 and well, here is no option for USB 3.0, so transferspeed is super slow. And BTW, I'm using a microSD card from Samsung that can get up to 90mb/s write speed. But should get around 80mb/s write and 70mb/s read...
Anybody got any tips and tricks?
Thanks anyway!
Hey shift owners,
I just installed a 128 gb sata hd and it's slower than my original ide hd... I tried modifying the bios to get ahci support but couldn't reveal it in bios, installed ahci drivers and nothing. I even tried enabling ahci support in registry. I've never had this problem modifying a sata to work with ahci support for better performance. Has anyone else had this issue? Have you got ahci support for your sata hd? This sata is slooooow and I paid good money for it!
Please let me know what's going on I just got this Shift and love it.
Thank you
SATA might work with AHCI, but ZIF is a form of PATA connection hench no AHCI mode.
i wonder where the slowness is coming from, if you just installed windows and all and you might be connected to the internet windows might be updating in the background using up all the CPU speed.
i can't tell is my MSATA tot ZIF board with SSD (brand: Crucial) is any faster, but under windows 10 is loads up stuff pretty fast (for this machine).

Yea I just bought the adapter and installed a crucial 256 gb msata and it's also very slow also. I mean it takes forever to boot and load apps.
