Hi,
i was thinking how i can fix a cabel for USB host for the HD2
i came to this idea: a USB Female To Female adapter,
what will happen if you connect your data cable to 1 side, and a USB Stick in the other side? will it work?
here's a pic:

Doesn't work mate. The HD2 does not work as a USB host.

then i thing you should see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=638201
and see your Register on your HD2..
OR google it,
Hey Mitchell,
Unfortunately this would not work directly since the HD2 does not power the external devices currently, you would need to create a modified wire that connects the power lines from the external usb device to some other power source (maybe a pc usb socket)
but this connector could be useful in allowing you to create this wire without having to hack up a hd2 usb cable itself.

As above .
There is also the problem I didn't mention that Cotulla never released the driver for this and since Cotulla has not been around for a while now it seems that this project is suspended indefinitely.

Problem is that the serial wires are not brought out to a nice place to solder to, and you can't let non-experts solder to the SMD 0.5 mm pitch connector wires themselves.
Ofcourse the real problem to fix is talking to the modem directly from the device. Tragedy is that we're not that far off, but too little precious time...
unlocking
at my o2 store they finaly have the serial cable.. :x (s)
there´s even two kinds now....
wich will work with the manipulator program ..????
the one with USB connection on the end,
..or the "serial" connection at the end ?
Use the one with the "serial" connector on the end, as this is the only real "Serial Sync Cable". The other one is a "USB Sync Cable" which is USB and is essentially the same as your USB Cradle.

What is the difference between the HTC Multifunction Audio Cable YC A300 and the HTC Multifunction Audio Cable YC A200?
Are you talking about these two.

Id get the one that says is specifically for the Fuze. Im assuming you lost the one that came with your Fuze?
The 200 has a regular mini usb imput port. The 300 has the HTC special mini usb imput port.
Yes, I lost mine. Thanks john, but do you know where I can get it without doing business with expansys

They both have an EMU port on the side, just on the bottom the a300 has one an additional EMU port where as the a200 has a standard USB MiniB 5p.
Not sure why one would need 2 EMU ports...
I work with serial interfaces all day and when I travel to work, having a way to interface the Imagio over serial would be fabulous!
So here I ask for all suggestions on how to do this and will be well taken.
The first thing that came to mind was that I could make a USB cable to interface with a RS232-USB converter as I would on any other windows computer. But does Windows Mobile have Plug And play??? How could I add such a communication port to the device ? And what about drivers? Has this being done before?
I had a few options and one of them was to use a Serial to Bluetooth adapter, I have tried one I got from KCWirefree some time ago and managed to send serial data both ways at diferent baud rate. Only issue is I have to reprogram the baud rate on the adapter each time which kills the purpose of the adapter it self.
So I found this,

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Which is closer to what I would like, if there is a way to use those data +/- then we could use a adapter the baudrate would only be changed on the HTC. Still looking...
I believe I have found some more answers...
In order to be able to connect this type of device I would need to have a
USB Host which I believe I have found:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-zeno-usb-host-drivers.html
http://rapidshare.de/files/45220151/__Zeno_USB_Host_Drivers_v6.0a.rar.html
It includes a few of the universal serial drivers and also some mass storage stuff...
I found a small adapter which I will be ordering/testing soon...
Will we be unable to do HDMI out and use a controller since they use the same ports?

HDMI out is MHL; controllers are USB OTG. I believe it's a hardware limitation that the two can't be used together, unfortunately. But nothing stopping you from using a wireless one (if there's one that works).

Yes that's what I meant with this only apply to GSII. I guess only a bluetooth controller would work though.
I think that the MHL-adapter will have an micro-USB port on it. It looks like it will on these pictures as well:

}
But I don't really have any reliable source to that.
The Micro USB port on the side of the adapter lets you charge your phone while in use.
I decided to try to see just how far I could push this micro-sd port that is claimed to be "for power only". Turns out, pretty far. And without even using all that specific gear - just some random junk I wasn't using for anything else.

I already had the following:
A Unitek USB 3.0 Hub + Gbit ethernet (not powered)
A media remote with full qwerty keyboard, and it's dongle
A 64GB microSD card with a USB adapter
I recently bought a microSD OTG connector with a power-passthrough.
Everything is working, even without any additional power connection (the USB hub doesn't take one). I haven't tested the actual speed, but I'm just happy to have ethernet just free up more Wifi B/W for others. It was insanely plug and play - I went into Settings > Network and it was like "you're already plugged in Jack. Disconnect if you want to go back ti Wifi"
