Hi out there, am I able to get monitor mode to work on HTC Universal? I still have no device but i'm thinking about to buy one Universal or Zaurus C1000. What I need is monitor mode for penetration testing. If injection is available, it's nice but not a "must have". I will use Linux on the Universal, to make it paly together with the rest of my annoying grey boxes. If the integrated WIFI does not, does anyone know if monitor mode works with one of these sdio wifi cards? Or is there another way, to stick external wifi devices to the Universal (maybe usb or cf)?
On wiki there is written, that the Universal uses the tnetw1100bg wifi chipset.
I found this one on net:
http://www.rootr.net/man/man/acx/4
Do I understand this right, that, if i'm using Linux with acx-driver, monitor mode will be available to the Universal?
very very interesting can someone test it?
Linux on the uni doesnt have SDIO and unlikely to have it for a while due to driver implimentation legal issues. hope this helps.
why do we need sdio wifi card,cant we use universal onboard wifi?
Well SDIO cards were mentioned, just ruling them out at this stage.
SDIO was just an idea if Universals onboard wifi doesn't work. but due to the link i've been posting, i still hope, it will work (not for injection, but monitor mode will). I hope someone will test it.
You Can Monitor And Inject With Linux On Universal Using ACX Kernel Module And AIRCRACK-NG Toolset.
great, this is all i was wanted to read. Now I'm going to buy me one universal. I hope I can come back to you with questions if i have problems to set up the device.

Disregard this... I was running an older kernel and have since upgraded my install to one with a 2.6.21 kernel

Exactly!
Very interesting: exactly for the same target I will buy an HTC UNi too.
So, that can be our topic: two penetration tester, one topic, and HTC Universal

The GPS function was disabled in Trinity and may be it will got a chance to re-enable it. But how about the USB Host function? Is there any way to enable it?
u have to buy an htc adaptor
I don't believe it, an adaptor?
I think it will be activated with a rom-update
Energie: source for that comment..?
I too think a rom-update is the thing...
Is their any word about the USB-Host in the new update?
What do you mean by "USB Host" ? I mean, that is hardware related thing so if you want to connect eg. flash disk to Trinity you must have some kind of adapter to do that, am I wrong?

Yeah i think you're wrong.
It was said it was hardware implemented already (just like the GPS) but it just had to be activated with the new rom (just like the GPS)...
Any News anyone?
if we use this device http://cgi.ebay.de/USB-2-0-OTG-On-T...160683QQihZ016QQcategoryZ131881QQcmdZViewItem
does that mean, i can connect my trinity directly to a mobile USB HDD and access say 250 GB of music or pictures or movies?
Guys, STOP. There shouldn't be any USB host in Trinity, because if it has one, where would you find an idiot to buy any other PDA phone??????? That would kill the market. Even without USB host it's one of the best machines around. LOOX T830 was the only machine to have GPS and 3G, but it's a monster...
Trinity is the only PDA to ombine Wi-Fi, BT, 3G (inc. HSDPA), and GPS. Asking for USB host would be to much I'm afraid...
is this something you think or do you have proof?
Cuz this page says the trinity does have USB-OTG...
http://translate.google.com/transla...&hl=fr&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&prev=/language_tools
Look at the second page, last part....
Well actually I want USB-Host (didnt know Trinity had the ability until today), Fm Radio (still not sure if there is a build in FM Radio Chip but Chinese site states it), and I want Airbag, ABS, DVD reader/writer (double sided ... no, better Blue Ray Disc), a Coffee machine, two bathrooms and an pop out 23 inch screen for TV...
It is a great device.
Well dudes, why do you keep on whining? The topic starter asks a serious question. You all keep posting crap. Please quit it, we all want answers.
I only know that the chip does support USB-OTG, but if it's hardware implemented? We don't know at the moment. But if it is, it's up to HTC to enable it.
Well, can someone explain to me what is USB Host and what good is it for?

I do not see any mention of the HTC Trinity or USB Host.. but that could change
Man, that's exactly what I want to see with this question, many of you don't know either what USB host is and what is it for?! You keep posting things about hidden features in Trinity and moaning about it everyday but actually don't know what good it will get you, very strange.
So, smart guys, what will you do with your "USB Host" enabled Trinity ?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the Trinity can act as a Host, you could connect an external HDD to it and transfer files. Or you could connect a memory card reader to empty your camera's card on the move.
Does anybody know if it is possible to connect the phone to a USB hard drive?
only with flame and Athena as they are the only ones which support usb host
other devices cant use usb devices only be used by usb hosts normaly a pc
There was actually someone who developed a working hard disk storage driver for windows mobile but last I checked the site no longer offered it. Searched for days trying to find the file elsewhere. No luck. Cant think of the company that made the driver.
I'm bumping this as I am also after the same sort of program / utility.
I want to be able to access my External HD and view / play files off it... anyone able to help me out?
Maybe with a external powersupplied disk

Correct
Our Hermes has no usb host support. I found a topic at forum.brighthand.com which suggested the host functionality could be added with a usb host driver. I found the software (attached zip) but alas... Though I did exactly as the 'manual' (readme.txt) explained, the usb-stick did not appear in my explorer.
Possibly an external drive with external power supply might work because the hermes usb port is simply not powerful enough to supply the power to the usb-stick. However I did not "explore that possibility" (don't have one ) and chances are 'just a driver' is not enough and hermes lacks "usb host hardware".
dident read the post because you dident give a link to the post just the forum
but i doubt that it's a general thing
many pda's have usbhost in the cpu itself but htc never connected those connectors
so it's not wired to the connector they have their own usb chip
so if the post you read said it about any other pda then htc based one it could be that that manufactor did connect the usb but dident supply the driver which would then be fixed with what you found

Sounds like there could be the potential for a hardware hack...
heh, nice try. but it will end like GPS HW hack on the TyTN (aka Hermes). it is not worth it, I mean there is easy way, just buy device with GPS integrated, or buy external. I have electronic skills and proper tools, I can do such things but it is too complicated. in that hermes was problem, that antena was not properly connected and you can never get a GPS lock. I guess that with usb host is the same. missing circuitry.

The USB host port of the Samsung CPU is used to connect to the internal GSM/GPRS chipset. So no chance to break it up!
If someone would ever hack this hardware part, the result would be a hermes without radio.
The engineers at HTC used the USB host port to achieve the necessary bandwith for high speed data connection to the GSM/GPRS chips from Qualcomm.

thats an interesting information, thanx

I am working on a project that required that we use a video camera that is external to the phone. We are looking at USB cameras and I was wondering if anyone knew of any solution that would allow us to use the external USB connected camera instead of the build in cameras on most phones.
Thanks.
guess not, for the same reason as mentioned in the below tread

Are there SDIO cameras? Failing that, it might be possible to use a LAN based camera, and connect to it through WiFi...
Yep, there are some SDIO cameras available
http://images.google.pl/images?q=sd...pl:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi
Of course if the phone doesn't have a SD/MMC slot, only a miniSD one, it won't fit in. But i guess that wiring the camera to a miniSD-microSD adapter might work, since both these cards are essentially the same, and the only difference is the form factor.
There are also CF-based cameras, but i haven't seen a hone equipped with a CF slot for a while.

HTC Sedna has a CF slot as do many HP devices.
I thought some-one wrote a USB camera driver for windows mobile?

I expect you are going to need a certain amount of expertise to use it.

Although WM and WinCE use the same basic code, WinCE has USB host functionality in most implementations, WM does not.
Thanks for the input.
Here are follow up questions:
- Are there any devices running WM5 or 6 that implement (in hardware) USB Host?
- Assuming that a WM5/6 device with the right HW can be found (see question above), how big of a job would it be to develop a driver for an external USB camera (assuming I might already have the code for a Windows 2000 / XP / Vista one)?
Txs
Most of the FSC Loox devices have an USB-Host.
I have a Loox 720 and a Loox N560 with this function.
Also the Toshiba G900 (and maybe also other Gx00 models) does have a host USB. But i have no idea about how hard would it be to get a webcam working on it.
ya i dont have any idea about it if we doo it better clint it like this
Hi,
I have an usb dvb-t stick (of the family A867 of avermedia, the nano 3d), can you tell me where the drivers are installed in the honeycomb for the iconia a500?
When I it connect to the iconia, from the terminal typing the command smesg, I can see that it recognizes the device but does not have the drivers
What makes you think drivers exist? If there are Linux drivers available, you might be able to port them, but then what? You'll also need an app capable of decoding the data from the device, and tuning in to the needed frequencies. Such a thing doesn't exist on Android at the moment.
ok, thanks for reply

Drivers exist ! DVB-T is functioning on Archos 101 (Froyo). They have an app that scans (livetv.apk as i remember well) the dongle. Look for internetadresses at the thread i opened a week ago. Unfortunately í'm not able to adapt the existent drivers for our tablet. The last driver i wrote was to connect a Teletype to a Z80 processor so now you now i'm a digital dinosaurus.
My "Cinery T USB XE" works on my Acer Iconia A210.
I have done a channel scan with droidTV.apk. Found channels, but have a very high error rate, so it*s don't see anything.
Is any one working on an app for DVB ? Maybe someone can tell how to crosscompile an binary? Or maybe can tell me how to configure toolchain paths for compiling successfull????
How can i setup my TL-WN722N to my Samsung galaxy tab a??? I found things online about having to change the kernel, I've been able to extract my kernel from my boot.img file but as far as how to edit it I have no idea what to do. If I can't do it myself with help of the forum I'm willing to pay sum1 to do it for me I can send the kernel to any1 interested.

For what reason would you want to use an external WiFi adapter over the inbuilt wifi?
For several reasons extended range for 1 but also use with kali nethunter and kali in Linux deploy for monitor mode to packet capture . Only on networks I have permission to do so with of course . Really I would be using it as a learning tool. I already have a pc running kali n Virtual box no problems there. But would prefer the more mobile aspect of using with my tablet. Being able to practice on the go without lugging around a laptop just seems much better. And you know it sounds totally kewl I'm sure there are plenty of other tab a users who would want a kernel with external wifi support as well.

Your best bet is to try running something like Linux deploy on your Tab, and connecting the WiFi adapter to it with a USB-OTG cable. (Researching the adapter model says its USB compatible) I can't speak for running Linux deploy on our Tab though, I've never tried it. Other than range and possible pen testing, you shouldn't see any advantage over simply using the native WiFi on a 5ghz network. You'll be limited by the internal write speed anyhow. Judging by TWRP's back up rate, its something around 40-50mb/sec.
Already have kali on linux deploy. Problem is the hardware for the adapter has to be built into android kernel in order to function. Have a pc with ubuntu i could use to modify the kernel problem is i dont know how to do that.
