[Q] USB Host - Need full root? - Desire HD General

I'm just going to assume that the DHD hardware is capable of USB host.
And that this will require a custom cable and external power supply.
And then there's probably some driver issue.
Which is where my question comes up; can we use the root we have, or do we need permanent root to be able to start working on USB host for the DHD?

PXE Boot supportet?

Hi
Has anyone heard something about PXE booting from Shift PC, or how to com in the Bios. We want build the Shift PC automatic with OS Deployment Tool.
Thanks for all the info.

PXE boot is not possible - remember, the Ethernet port is not embedded, but just an USB attached device. Of course, you could create an bootable USB stick that provides a kind of USB support, assuming the necessary drivers for the ethernet port in the USB Hub are available (but in fact, i really doubt so).
OK Thanks i will try it

[Q] USB OTG Functionality - for porting to Optimus One

Hello,
Can anyone help me with a description of the USB OTG functionality on the ZTE Blade ?
I am interested in:
What drivers are installed (USB Host, USB Gadget, USB Storage, etc.) that are related to USB OTG functionality.
How the phone recognizes if it should be in USB Host or USB Gadget mode (sense pin or software switch?)
How the automount works.
What kinds of devices can be connected to the phone.
Any other things that could help implementing USB Host into another phone (Optimus One)
I am trying to help get USB host working in the LG Optimus One, which has similar hardware, but OTG is not working at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated.
The thread (at it's beginning, at thr moment is here), for direct input.

[Q] USB Drivers from 3.1 to 2.2

Hello, I was wandering if it would be possible to port the USB drivers from Android 3.1 to use on Android 2.2 for use on the A7. I love this tablet, but hate the lack of USB device support. If it is at all possible how hard would it be to do so? Thanks for any help at all. Sorry if this has been asked before.
why don't you try loading dexter A7comb 3.0.1 rom, you can run it as HC or GB..
Does it have USB mouse support? And doesn't it have a fair share of bugs?
i think i included the USB_OTG app in HC3.0 release, which can enable your usb port, if you get a MALE-A to MALE-A cable (OTG cable i think its called)
then you get full usb connection support, and mapping to windows works too.
Its disabled for use in regular mod i think.
technically, the trick is in a terminal program,
to do this one line,
DEVICE MODE
echo 0 >/proc/test_program/usb
HOST MODE
echo 1 >/proc/test_program/usb

[Q] how can we use a usb host?

Hello,
I have do a usb cable with external power alimentation, can we use it on android?
It works on Windows and on ubuntu!
I have put the kernel with a driver for the usb host. If we search the program used in samsung s2?
Bumping, as I am looking too for a way to run this. There is no clear info about USB host support on this forum.
And USB Host IS POSSIBLE in HD2 as hardware supports it, probably with OTG mode. We need a working kernel, or just some info how to run it.

Quallcomm Diag port access locally

All, I am looking to get access to the DMSS or DIAG port locally on android without a USB cable. Perhaps this is done via usb virtual devices or some other means. Anyone try this?
Once you get access, a lot of modifications could happen on android itself.
