Cingular 8125 as thumbdrive reader (not AS a USB drive, something that reads them)?

Possible?
With a mini USB B male to USB A female adapter would the 8125 be able to use usb drives you plug into it?

look up "WM5torage"

I reworded the post

i dont think it will work as wizard does not have usb host support

could it be made to work? that would be awesome

[Q] Usb webcam support? Old Thread Missing Files?

I'm looking for the new instructions for this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105497
I can't find any of the downloads as the links lead to a 404 Error. Which means cant be found. So does anyone have these files still?

Nook Color Tweaks has a host mode toggle.
Pretty much any of the newish Roms will have USB host mode. I don't know about the webcam part (and don't have the right usb adapter to test it.

Thanks will try this, I installed the app, so should I just enable USB HOST MODE, then use this piece USB 2.0 A Female to Micro-B Male Adapter to connect my usb keyboard in? and it should process it? sorry noob here

If you are going to be able to get it to work at all you will likely need a powered hub as well.....

[Q] USB Host/ USB otg ?

Hi guys, I'm having a trouble with my Aquos crystal (305sh).
Anyone got the USB OTG function working?
I mean:
1) Use external USB mouse / keyboard.
2) Read/Write USB memory.
*Using USB micro A /USB A cable.
I couldn't get it workiong so far with my 305sh.
Some "unofficial" spec listing sites says Aquos crystal DO support USB OTG 1.3.
Whereas in SHARP site / Softbank site I couldn't find any USB OTG related description...Oh does it mean I can't?
If you got it working please let me know how.

[Q] usb stick not recognised

hi first i am a noob and learning meanings of terms used.
I have looked at threads with similar titles but they appear to be having a different issue.
Back ground history.
My SD card ext fried with all its data so I decided to go down the route of using an usb stick for storage. I am currently waiting to receive a usb 2.0 stick which can both be plugged directly into the phone or via my otg cable.
In the meantime my Problem has been experienced connecting a usb 3.0 stick to an otg cable. My phone does not recognise that the usb stick is connected. The otg cable is ok. I have used it to type on a keyboard. Previously.
When I plug the otg cable in the symbols come up at the top left corner of my phone showing that a usb connector is plugged in. I go to look at my storage and there is mo usb there. My usb debugging is ticked. if i have a look under usb tethering the option to tick is muted as it dirsnt recognise the usb is connected.
I did briefly see a suggestion somewhere that it could be a kernel problem but have been unable to locate the thread that this comment referred to.
I have a note 3
sm-n9005
a couple of days ago I managed to root it using towel root and downloading a link via this forum to revert the kernel to an earlier one so towel root would work. I then followed the link instructions to install the second kernel. The root appeared to work without too much problem. i ran root checker after and it said all was ok.
I am unsure whether the root has any relevance to the problem as when I google the usb stick is not recognised there are heaps of similar problems. Unfortunately though I have read many of the threads I still cant find an answer that helps me.
Could you nicely give me some advice. Thanking you

How was the USBstick formatted? Android can't use NTFS, you need to format it as FAT32 or ExFAT.

Well I was prepared to look extremely abashed on reading your question to me reformatting. luckily abashment could be deferred this time.
On looking at the usb stick it was formatted as a fat32. So I tried the other type of formatting you suggested. It still was not recognised.
The computer could recognise it.
My friend had a usb stick 2.0 which I then plugged in. a eureka moment was experienced. Mass storage message appeared.
So the problem appears to be with usb stick 3.0
I know the otg cable was originally designed for the 2.0, my understanding is that it is also supposed to work with 3.0
Any thoughts of why not?
Btw still havnt figuered out how to use the forums thank you process (where it is located?) Would love advice with that as well.
Thank you

USB 3.0 is actually USB2.0, the small addition on the side is the 3.0 part. It's completely backwards compatible.
It could also be an issue with the OTG cable itself. Do you have any other device to test the OTG cable with? (Tablet, etc)
Oh, the thanks button is located bottom left of a post, at the bottom underneath the poster information.

Thanks for the reply. I guess this will remain a mystery. I must admit to scratching my head about the possibility of it being an otg cable problem as the phone recognises when the cable has been plugged in and the cable works with both keyboard and usb stick 2.0
All I can think of is that elusive past post referenced on xda forum that referred to kernel issues.
Many thanks for your responses. (Still cant find thanks button) could be because I am using phobe as I dont have a p.c.

USB host mode support? Is this a bad question?

Does anyone care to look into a patch or addition to the software or kernel to allow usb host support? I think that the hardware supports usb host, but the software removes compatibility because when I plug in a Playstation 3 controller it the 4 lights on the front flash, and it charges, but nothing happens on the the phone as well as when I plug in a usb flash drive or the otg cable itself the message for USB host mode does not pop up.. I have looked for a sulution for this but couldn't find one. Any help, or an answer to what this means would be great!
Thanks
By the way, this is a rooted 306sh

never mind, i got it working
