[Q] NTFS and usb host is possible? - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is possible ntfs suport and usb host in my defy??
Sorry For Bad English

Well, a simple search on the forums will explain that.
The response is: No. The locked bootloader don't allow us to flash custom kernels with these improvements.

hm Not too sure about that... for some things we don't need to flash a custom kernel, but it is sufficient to compile and load a kernel module... so at least ntfs could be supported? don't know if the hardware supports usb host, and without that, ntfs is a bit useless that's just what i think without doing some research.

[ATTEMPT] Enable USB OTG host mode

I'm working on USB host support on our i9000. With the help of Galaxy Player kernel sources I think we manage to do this. Galaxy Player DOES support USB OTG host mode and is almost identical to our Galaxy S, the main difference is lack of GSM/CDMA module. Same CPU, same USB switcher (FSA9480) etc. Kernel sources looks promissing. You may say that i9000 is not able to provide power to power the device, but we can use self powered USB hub to do that
Look at the sources:
SAMSUNG OPEN SOURCE RELEASE CENTER -> Mobile -> MP3 Player & Etc. -> YP-GB1
What a great news! Following with interest!
Since this is not yet development, I will move it to general.
As soon as you have something ready, you can open a new thread in the development subforum or ask me to move the existing one.
Cheers
Awesome news...!!!
You are the guy!!!
From a far away galaxy(S)
Thank you. This will be great.

Some other dev. has already made this?
Thx for reading, press THANKS if u like
you give us a good information but you link is for the galaxy note, no for the galaxy s.
so much things can be variable from device to one other even if they come from the same brand "processeur,usb, drivers..."
Wait and see for this project is very usefull to use usb host

Google helps dude. Search before asking.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go
Right there, first line:
"USB On-The-Go, often abbreviated USB OTG, is a specification that allows USB devices such as digital audio players or mobile phones to act as a host allowing a USB flash drive, mouse, or keyboard to be attached."

Any News?
sztupy made it working on teamhacksung's ICS kernel.
It's also working on Onecosmics ICS, so if you are on one of these ROMS, try this kernel.

[Q] Custom kernel possible on the Defy?

Is it possible to use a custom kernel on the defy even though it has a locked bootloader? As it is possible to load custom kernel modules which will then run in supervisor mode, it should be possible to write a kernel module that copies itself at the end of RAM, disables all interrupts so that execution doesn't jump out of the module, jumps into its own copy at the end of the RAM, loads another kernel into the start of the RAM and jumps into it, right?
defy cant run custom build kernels because of the bootloader..
but AFAIK you should be able to compile and load modules outside the kernel or something, i would really like USB host mode on defy, maybe someone skilled enough can try it??

Uh, did you even read my post? I'm suggesting to first let the bootloader load the stock kernel, then let the init process load a kernel module that loads another kernel and jumps into it. No need to touch the bootloader, you'd simply put another bootloader into a kernel module.
Now I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24918641&highlight=defy#post24918641 ... I wonder whether it's possible to carry the 3G driver's state over a reboot...
umm, sorry i was bit sleepy, dunno about kecex though
EDIT: and i found this :http://www.eternityproject.eu/topic/49-bootloader-bypass-kexec-for-motorola-razr/#entry342
EDIT2: -.- i'm still sleepy
Somewhere is a post where Quarkz confirmed that we can't use kexec. He posted a conversation with the kexec main developer to do it. Maybe on cheesecake thread.

This is to solve all the confusion about USB OTG on the play

So to all of you wondering about USB OTG on our play its impossible Just look at all the forms asking these questions:
Does the Play support OTG
Usb on-the-go xperia play
Dooms attempt at usb otg
here is a app attempt to get it to work....
theoretically it MIGHT be possible if we can build a kernel to do so but ATM none exist the closest we got was dooms attempt and that failed.....so i hope this answers all your questions
On doomlord's thread, cosmicdan already explained why otg is not possible.

[Q] nexus 4- otg problem , please help me !.

hey, i have a nexus 4 with android 5 and just flushed the kernel defcon-96u-unleashed-AOSP_mako.zip [which you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...nel-ultimate-unleashed-kernel-series-t2845768 ] .
this kernel supports otg, and it comes with a "synapse" application [there i made a "v" over the otg enable option].
iv'e got a small micro usb external memory storage of 32 gb flat32 , and when i insert it to the nexus nothing happends.
i guess as you can all see im really new with this ^^...
please help me! how can i fix it?
Should be a y with an external power source but you should really ask this in the thread for the kernel

as said in the previous reply to your question nexus 4 requires Y otg cable. the reason is that nexus 4 hardware does not support powering devices via usb so you need a y cable to power your usb externally
You just need to flash a custom kernel you can try this ONE It has otg support and works on cm 11 and android L
I flashed that custom kernel , and there is an option for otg which i have enabled but nothing comes up when i plug in the external memory.
I dont think there is a difference between using simple microusb external memory and a regular usb external memory conected via y cable.
Please help me fix it ! , i really need that otg.!
Two posts above yours. You need a Y otg cable and external power source for your usb

Someone with knowledge exfat supports

I would like to give the rom tesla 2.3 support to the microsd with exfat system try several script eh even fuse tools but I can not reach, could someone tell me how could I support this rom?
someone who knows please? I want this to be my daily use but this small mistake prevents me from using it
@linusdan @GreekDragon do you know any way I can support exfat?

No have idea.
I do not know if you're asking about the contents of the ROM.
Just in case, I would like to inform you that the ROM should contain:
/system/lib/libexfat.so
/system/bin/fsck.exfat
/system/bin/mkfs.exfat
/system/bin/mount.exfat

I want to apply support for exfat cards I understand that it must be under your kernel which is GeniSys kernel
Is it difficult to add the following lines?

You have not explained what you intend to do.
Do you want to compile ROM or make a ROM port?
If you want to compile a ROM, read the TeslaOS sources and direct the questions directly to Ground Zero ROMS Q&A.
