I recently got the HTC Shift and as we all know there is no build in DVD Super multi in it. I bought a Sony DVD Super multi from my friend and after connecting it to the USB port on the HTC. It detect the drive perfectly but whenever i try to run any CD or DVD the icon disappears from the My computer. I also tested connecting this Sony drive to my desktop and it is working fine there.??? any idea. i want to buy a new LD DVD Drive but not sure if it is going to work or not.
Solution: I purchased a new LG DVD Super multi that came with the external USB connector to give power to the DVD and as i tell i connected it to my desktop to give power through the USB to the DVD Super multi and finally it is working now and i am installing the WIN 7 now!!!!!!! HURRA PARTY TIME!!!!!!!!
Not enough power.
As far as I understand, there's not enough power going through the usb hub to power the dvd drive. You need an external power supply.
If you're using the hub/lan device that came with the shift, there's a mini usb jack in there which can take a 5v current. That means that you need to get a power adapter that has a usb mini output. I use my Touch HD charger to power the hub if there's anything that normally needs more power from the shift.
I hope that helps.

I faced the same problem when connecting two ext. HDD or flash USBs but I never thought of the mini USB powering idea...

Ok, i got the cable that can give power from the USB port. I am planning to give the power to the DVD rom from my desktop.... is this may help?
Hi, I solved same Problem with external USB-HDD and external USB-DVD with an external USB Hub that has a Power Supply.
But so, there is not every time a external CDROM/USB-HDD or Power Supply on my travel sides, so I modify a USB-Stick with 4GB Space to boot and install Windows from them..
see the small and easy programm:
winsetupfromusb
http://www.msfn.org/board/install-USB-WinSetupF-t120444.html
if you have little time more, you can insert all needed drivers before you
make winsetupfromusb with Nlite...
see:
http://www.nliteos.com/
so picture it you're using the tablet for video or music running from a memory stick via OTG and you want to be able to power/charge the device at the same time without having to remove the pen drive is there any way of achieving this?
some kind of pass through device perhaps or a usb hub of sorts?
How to power with usb-otg
I can't confirm whether this will work for the Nexus 7 but it has worked on my Triumph and Photon 4G. Go to meritline.com and look for a Pisen® Multi Purpose USB Hub, White (sorry can't post links yet.) Plug your otg into the white port and the red into any available usb power supply (be it a laptop or charger) you may want to have an extension available depending on your set-up. For me this has provided power to keep device charged as well as interface thumb drives, card readers, etc, has even powered a bus-powered external hdd with no problems.
I have had intermittent success connecting the IOIO board to the Nook Simple Touch.
* It seems to work sometimes and not others
* I've tried this with beta5 root kernel and with the beta5 root kernel with the USB Host mode patch from evergreen.
* It requires that the Auto mount of the USB is turned off and the developer adb debugging is enabled.
The easiest way to test the IOIO board is with an app called "blink" which if successfull, loads a program onto the IOIO board from the Nook that makes the LED blink.
I mention this because the USB Host mode satisfies some needs, but the IOIO opens up options for several concurrent UART connectsion to the Nook, while simultaneously charging the Nook.
Has anyone had any experience with the IOIO and the Nook?

Hello guys I need your kind help on the following questions
1- I bought an otg cable and found that it keeps disconnecting a lot, like when I connect a usb hard drive, or mouse, or xbox controller it keep every now and then disconnecting,
2- the sound volume is really low , especially when I play music
3- is there a software that can tell me about lenovo driver or software updates
4- when i press the power buttom to turn off the display youtube disconnects, i was wondering if i can play youtube while display is off, as I like to listen to youtube sometimes and don't care about the screen to be on
kindly please tell me in detail as I am still new to windows tablets especially drivers and software
i was wondering also is there a special forum for win8.1 tablets that is good for getting help
Mouse should be fine, but an xbox 360 controller is rated at 400mA of current draw officially and hard disks regularly peak at 500mA or more, the miix is only rated for 100mA on its USB. You need a mains powered USB hub inbetween tablet and device if you are going to use big power hungry devices like that, or one of those USB cables with split data and power connections and put the power connection to a mains adaptor or battery pack (you can buy battery packs with USB ports for charging phones).
Sound I have no idea.
Does the normal windows update facility not serve your needs? Just check back every few days.
Pressing the power button depending on power plan is putting your device to sleep or hibernate, all CPU activity is suspended in both of these modes.

I haven't seen an OTG cable with it integrated, but there is no reason why you couldnt use this with your existing OTG cable:
http://www.newtech.cat/w/en/1473-USB-2-0-Cable-Double-Power-Injector--2xAM-AH--1-2m.html
On this cable there is 1 USB socket and 2 USB plugs. The black plug is a normal USB data connection which would normally plug into a laptop or something, you would simply stick that in the OTG cable, the white plug is wired for power only, this would go into anything capable of supplying 5v in a normal USB connector whether that be one of the wall adaptors supplied for charging phones or something like this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Digital-Additions®-Battery-Extender-Batteries/dp/B002PHC1XU
Hello,
with a nexus 4, can i open it and remove the accu, that i can connect it to a extern power supply and it is possible to connect it to a HDMI Cabel instead of the touchscreen?
Thank for your reply.
I think the balancer or bms shout inside the accu, so if i now the power +/- pins i should can conect a extern power supply. Or is there any security safes? And if i now know the data/picture pins of the display, i should can conect it to a hdmi Tv, or can be voltage/signal - pegel problems?
